AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
500 PM MDT MON MAY 26 2014

.SHORT TERM...(THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 1155 AM MDT MON MAY 26 2014

LATEST WV IMAGERY AND RAP UPPER LEVEL ANALYSIS SHOWS UPPER LOW
CENTERED OVER NE NEW MEXICO WITH PLUME OF MOISTURE STILL MOVING
NORTH AND WEST ACROSS THE PLAINS AROUND THE EASTERN EDGE OF THIS
FEATURE. SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS SW KANSAS IN
RESPONSE TO STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND COLD POOL ALOFT.

THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE AS IT SPREADS
NORTH AND ADDITIONAL SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DEVELOP LOCALLY
OVER OUR CWA. I STILL THINK SCATTERED COVERAGE IS
APPROPRIATE...THOUGH GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO INDICATE A VORT MAX
AIDING IN THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE EASTERN CWA LATER THIS
AFTERNOON. WILL NEED TO MONITOR FOR FURTHER ADJUSTMENTS. MODERATE SB
CAPE HAS DEVELOPED ACROSS THE NORTHERN AND EASTERN CWA...AND COULD
HELP LEAD TO A FEW STRONGER STORMS. SHEER IS STILL VERY WEAK...SO
OTHER THAN MARGINAL HAIL/WIND OR LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN (LOCALIZED
FLOODING)...THERE SHOULDNT BE A WELL ORGANIZED SEVERE THREAT.
AMENDED HWO TO MENTION THIS LIMITED THREAT WITH BETTER INSTABILITY
IN PLACE THAN ORIGINALLY ANTICIPATED. AS MENTIONED IN PREVIOUS
DISCUSSION...NON-SUPERCELL TORNADO THREAT EXISTS WITH COLD POOL
DOMINATED/UPPER LOW ACROSS PLAINS...HOWEVER THIS FAR NORTH THE
THREAT IS SO LOW IT IS NOT WORTH MENTIONING BEYOND THIS DISCUSSION
AT THIS POINT.

AS UPPER LOW FINALLY BEGINS TO SHIFT EAST AND RIDGE DEVELOPS INTO
THE CWA...LARGE SCALE SUBSIDENCE ALONG WITH A QUICKLY STABILIZING
POST SUNSET AIR MASS WILL HELP END SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM THREAT FROM
THE WEST TO THE EAST. THERE IS STILL A LITTLE BIT OF UPPER LEVEL
FORCING IN PLACE LATER TONIGHT IN THE EAST...SO I DID KEEP A SLIGHT
CHANCE LINGERING A LITTLE LONGER THERE...OTHERWISE I WENT WITH A
PREDOMINATELY DRY FORECAST AFTER MIDNIGHT. DRY CONDITIONS AND MUCH
ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS (MID-UPPER 80S) ARE THEN EXPECTED ACROSS THE THE
CWA ON TUESDAY.

.LONG TERM...(TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 1239 PM MDT MON MAY 26 2014

RIDGING ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE UPPER LOW MOVING ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS WILL BE THE DOMINANT FEATURE THROUGH THE END OF
THE WEEK. DRY AND WARM CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED AS A RESULT.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE MODERATED SOMEWHAT BY A PERSISTENT EAST TO
SOUTHEAST WIND DUE TO SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SITUATED NEAR THE
GREAT LAKES AND TROUGHING OVER EASTERN COLORADO. HIGHS WILL
GENERALLY BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 80S AND LOWS IN THE 50S AND 60S.
NEXT CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION ARRIVES FRIDAY NIGHT ASSUMING THE
RIDGE HAS MOVED FAR ENOUGH EAST. THOSE CHANCES WILL CONTINUE
OVER THE WEEKEND WITH A SERIES OF SHORTWAVE TROUGHS COMING OUT
OF THE SOUTHWEST AND STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY AT THE SURFACE. BASIC
SEVERE PARAMETERS SHOW MODERATE INSTABILITY AND WEAK TO MODERATE DEEP
LAYER SHEAR...SO A FEW SEVERE STORMS CANNOT BE RULED OUT. BY
MONDAY MODELS IN POOR AGREEMENT WITH GFS BRINGING A DRY SLOT OVER
THE CENTRAL PLAINS BUT THE ECMWF REMAINING MOIST AND UNSTABLE.
WILL GO WITH PERSISTENCE AND CARRY LOW CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS
THROUGH THE END OF THE PERIOD. TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO BE
ABOVE NORMAL.
