AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
635 PM MDT SAT JUN 21 2014

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 627 PM MDT SAT JUN 21 2014

MADE ADJUSTMENTS TO POP/WX TO ACCOUNT FOR CURRENT THUNDERSTORM
COVERAGE AND TRENDS. STILL EXPECT BETTER CHANCES OVER THE CWA
LATER THIS EVENING AS ACTIVITY SPREADS FROM EASTERN COLORADO INTO
FAVORABLE ENVIRONMENT AND SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVES OVER CWA.
OTHERWISE AHEAD OF THIS LINE WE HAVE JUST HAD ISOLATED TO WIDELY
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS INITIATING ALONG A SURFACE TROUGH AXIS
ROUGHLY ALONG THE KS/CO STATE LINE. SOME OF THESE STORMS HAVE
BEEN SEVERE WITH LARGE HAIL THE MAIN THREATS OVER OUR CWA.
MESOANALYSIS CONTINUES TO SHOW SBCAPE VALUES 2000-2500 J/KG AND
BULK EFFECTIVE SHEER 30-40KT ALONG KS/CO STATE LINE...SO
ENVIRONMENT WOULD CERTAINLY SUPPORT AT LEAST ISOLATED ORGANIZED
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. AND POSSIBLY INTENSIFICATION OF ANY STORMS
MOVING OUT OF COLORADO OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 1220 PM MDT SAT JUN 21 2014

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...SOME SEVERE...WILL INCREASE IN
COVERAGE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TONIGHT AS A WEATHER DISTURBANCE
MOVES THROUGH. DIFFERENCES REMAIN IN JUST HOW MUCH COVERAGE THERE
WILL BE AND HOW LONG THEY WILL LAST BUT RIGHT NOW LOOKS LIKE
THINGS WILL GET STARTED ALONG A SFC TROUGH NEAR/EAST OF THE CO/KS
BORDER WITH ANOTHER AREA OVER FAR EASTERN COLORADO. THESE TWO
AREAS MAY MERGE INTO ONE AREA THAT MOVES ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND
EASTERN PARTS OF THE AREA THROUGH MIDNIGHT. AFTER MIDNIGHT THERE
MAY BE LINGERING AREAS OF PRECIP BUT MOST OF THE ACTIVITY SHOULD
BE DONE. LOWS GENERALLY 55-60 WEST...MID TO UPPER 60S EAST AND LOW
60S IN BETWEEN.

SUNDAY...SHOULD HAVE A LULL IN PRECIPITATION POTENTIAL TIL
MID/LATE IN THE DAY WHEN ANOTHER WEATHER SYSTEM MOVES INTO FAR
EASTERN COLORADO. ONCE AGAIN MODELS HAVE VARYING SOLUTIONS ON HOW
THIS WILL PLAY OUT SO CONFIDENCE RIGHT NOW NOT ALL THAT HIGH.
AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE COOLER WITH LOW TO MID 80S
NORTH...AROUND FAR EAST AND SOUTH. WINDS BEHIND THE COLD FRONT
GENERALLY FROM THE NORTH/NORTHWEST AT 10 TO 20 MPH.

.LONG TERM...(SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 107 PM MDT SAT JUN 21 2014

SHORTWAVE TROUGH COMING OUT OF NORTHERN COLORADO SUNDAY EVENING
WILL INTERACT WITH A SURFACE COLD FRONT FOR SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS
THUNDERSTORMS. MODELS HAVE SHIFTED THE FRONT A LITTLE FURTHER
SOUTH COMPARED TO PREVIOUS RUNS...AND AT 00Z/MONDAY IT IS FORECAST
TO BE NEAR A HILL CITY TO LEOTI LINE. ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE FRONT
WILL STAND THE BEST CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS. MODERATE TO STRONG
INSTABILITY IS FORECAST ALONG/SOUTH OF THE FRONT WITH WEAK TO
MODERATE INSTABILITY NORTH OF THE FRONT. DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL NOT
BE ALIGNED WITH THE INSTABILITY...IT WILL BE GREATEST NORTH OF THE
FRONT. SO ANY STORMS WHICH DEVELOP IN THE POST FRONTAL HIGHLY
SHEARED ENVIRONMENT MAY BECOME SUPERCELLULAR WITH ATTENDANT
THREATS FOR VERY LARGE HAIL...GUSTY WINDS AND PERHAPS A
TORNADO...TRANSITIONING TO MORE OF A HEAVY RAIN AND LARGE HAIL
THREAT SOUTH OF THE FRONT.

LOW LEVEL MOISTURE RETURN WILL GET UNDERWAY ON MONDAY WITH GOOD
UPSLOPE COMPONENT INTO THE FRONT RANGE WHERE STORMS ARE LIKELY TO
INITIATE AS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE COMES OUT OF THE MOUNTAINS. THOSE
STORMS WILL SPREAD INTO NORTHWEST KANSAS AND SOUTHWEST NEBRASKA IN
THE EVENING ENCOUNTERING DIMINISHING INSTABILITY. HOWEVER DEEP
LAYER SHEAR WILL BE 30-40KTS SUGGESTING THE POSSIBILITY OF A
SEVERE STORM OR TWO.

TUESDAY LOOKS MUCH LIKE MONDAY WITH LOW LEVEL UPSLOPE AND MID
LEVEL WESTERLIES RESULTING IN VEERING WIND PROFILES AND DEEP
LAYER SHEAR 30-40KTS. WEAK TO MODERATE INSTABILITY IS ALSO
FORECAST. DESPITE SUBTLE 500MB HEIGHT RISES IN THE AFTERNOON THERE
IS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE TROUGH FORECAST TO TOP THE RIDGE AXIS AT PEAK
HEATING WHICH WILL LIKELY RESULT IN SYNOPTIC SCALE LIFT AND
ANOTHER ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS.

THE REMAINDER OF THE LONG TERM PERIOD CONTINUES THE ACTIVE
PATTERN. IN FACT AS A TROUGH SETTLES INTO THE NORTHERN ROCKIES
DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL ONLY INCREASE AND PROVIDE AN EXCELLENT
ENVIRONMENT FOR SEVERE STORMS...PARTICULARLY ON FRIDAY AND POSSIBLY
ON SATURDAY DEPENDING ON WHERE A FRONT/DRY LINE END UP.

TEMPERATURES IN THE LONG TERM PERIOD WILL BE NEAR NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SUNDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 515 PM MDT SAT JUN 21 2014

VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD AT BOTH KGLD AND
KMCK. SOUTHERLY WINDS IN THE10-15KT RANGE WILL INITIALLY DECREASE
AS A SURFACE LOW SHIFTS EAST LATE TONIGHT BEFORE SHIFTING TO THE
NORTH AND NORTHEAST AND INCREASING AS A COLD FRONT MOVES SOUTH
OVER THE REGION. THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING ARE PRIMARILY
SOUTHEAST OF INTERSTATE 70 (AND KGLD) AND OVER EASTERN COLORADO.
THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY OVER EASTERN COLORADO IS STILL EXPECTED
TO MOVE EAST AND INCREASE IN COVERAGE THIS EVENING AS A
DISTURBANCE ALOFT MOVES EAST. THIS ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY PASS OVER
BOTH TERMINALS...POSSIBLY LINGERING MOST OF THE NIGHT OVER KMCK.
EARLIER IN THE TAF PERIOD THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY JUST SOUTHEAST
OF KGLD MAY MOVE WITHIN THE VICINITY OF THE TERMINAL...AND
ADDITIONAL ACTIVITY MAY DEVELOP FURTHER NORTH ALONG THE SURFACE
TROUGH. WILL NEED TO MONITOR AND AMEND BASED ON TRENDS AS THIS
EVOLVES. THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL BEGIN TO REDEVELOP ONCE AGAIN
AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES SOUTH...THOUGH BEST COVERAGE SUNDAY WOULD
BE OUTSIDE THE CURRENT TAF PERIOD SO I ENDED THUNDERSTORM MENTION
LATE TONIGHT.
