AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
131 PM MDT FRI JUN 27 2014

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 131 PM MDT FRI JUN 27 2014

ACTIVE EVENING/OVERNIGHT PERIOD EXPECTED FOR THE AREA FOR
CONVECTION. CURRENTLY THIS AFTERNOON...SURFACE LOW OVER SE
COLORADO COMBINED WITH INVERTED TROUGH(DRYLINE) EXTENDING
NORTHWARD TOWARDS SOUTHERN WYOMING. THUNDER HAS BEEN FIRING UP
ALONG THIS BOUNDARY PROMPTING THE ISSUANCE OF A SEVERE
THUNDERSTORM WATCH FOR EASTERN COLORADO. THIS TROUGH WILL BEGIN TO
SHIFT SLOWLY EAST THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

MODEL CONVECTIVE PARAMETERS CONTINUE TO SUGGEST SEVERE POTENTIAL
THROUGH MUCH OF THE EVENING HOURS AND WITH THE MOVEMENT OF TROUGH
INTO WESTERN KANSAS...THE POTENTIAL FOR TORNADO DEVELOPMENT
INCREASES WITH INCREASING SHEAR ENVIRONMENT. HAVE CONTINUED MENTION
OF SEVERE WORDING IN FORECAST FOR LARGE HAIL/WINDS. KANSAS ZONES
COULD SEE THE ISSUANCE OF A TORNADO WATCH LATER THIS AFTERNOON WITH
SPC GUIDANCE SHOWING GOOD CHANCE FOR.

ALONG WITH THE CHANCE FOR SEVERE WEATHER TONIGHT...WITH COME THE
CHANCE FOR FLOODING CONDITIONS WITH EXPECTED HEAVY RAINFALL. PW/S
ARE WELL OVER AN INCH AND WITH THE MOVEMENT OF STORMS WITH
TROUGH...AREAS HAVE POTENTIAL FOR LOCALIZED 1-2" AMOUNTS IN A SHORT
TIME. SOME TRAINING OF STORMS COULD LEAD TO HIGHER AMOUNTS. WILL
HAVE TO BE MONITORED LATER FOR ANY FLASH FLOODING POTENTIAL...
ESPECIALLY IN EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA TOWARDS MORNING.

TEMPERATURES IN THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD WILL CONSIST OF MOIST AND HUMID
CONDITIONS FOR ALL KANSAS ZONES UNTIL THE SYSTEM SHIFTS EASTWARD.
LOOKING FOR OVERNIGHT LOWS TO RANGE FROM MID 50S WEST THROUGH THE
LOWER 60S EAST AND WILL BE DEPENDENT ON WHEN DRIER AIR WORKS INTO
AREA(INDICATIVE OF LOW DEWPTS OVER WESTERN COLORADO). WINDS IN THE
EXTENDED WILL GENERALLY REMAIN ESE OVER THE REGION UNTIL TROUGH
PASSES. LOOKING FOR 5 TO 15 MPH CLOSE TO TROUGH AND INCREASING 15 TO
30 MPH TO EASTERN ZONES. AFTER TROUGH PASSAGE...SHIFT TO WNW FLOW
5-15MPH.

GOING INTO SATURDAY...SLOW MOVEMENT OF BROAD UPPER TROUGH ACROSS
EASTERN PORTIONS OF KANSAS DURING THE MORNING HOURS...WILL ALLOW
FOR SOME -RW/-TRW TO PERSIST BEFORE SLOWLY CLEARING OUT OVER
EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA. HAVE CONTINUED A MENTION OF SLIGHT
CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION THERE BEFORE EXITING BY MIDDAY. SURFACE
RIDGE AND UPPER ZONAL FLOW BEHIND THIS TROUGH WILL PROVIDE AREA
FOR A DECENT DAY WITH STRONG SUBSIDENCE AND NORTHWEST FLOW 10-20
MPH. WITH LINGERING CLOUD COVER POTENTIAL FOR EASTERN PORTIONS OF
THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE MORNING HOURS TEMPERATURES SLOW TO
INCREASE AFTER SUNRISE BUT WILL STAY JUST UNDER GUIDANCE KEEPING
AREA IN MID 80S FOR HIGH TEMPERATURES.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 1239 PM MDT FRI JUN 27 2014

ZONAL FLOW IS FORECAST FOR SATURDAY NIGHT WITH A POSSIBLE EMBEDDED
WEAK SHORTWAVE...BUT LOW LEVELS WILL BE VERY DRY WITH DEW POINTS
ONLY IN THE 40S IN THE EVENING...THOUGH THEY DO INCREASE AFTER
MIDNIGHT ESPECIALLY IN THE SOUTHEAST. A WEAK LLJ OF AROUND 30KTS
IS FORECAST TO DEVELOP ON 315K SURFACE OVERNIGHT WITH RESULTANT
MOISTURE ADVECTION. DESPITE SOME DECENT ELEVATED CAPE UP TO 2000
J/KG...CIN IS FORECAST TO BE 50-100 J/KG FOR PARCELS ORIGINATING
AROUND 800MB WHICH WOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO CAP ELEVATED CONVECTION.
MODELS ARE DRY SO WILL KEEP IT THAT WAY FOR NOW.

ZONAL FLOW CONTINUES ON SUNDAY AROUND BROAD BASE OF THE MAIN
TROUGH IN THE NORTHERN PLAINS. A DISTURBANCE ROTATING THROUGH THE
FLOW SUNDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING WILL HAVE PLENTY OF MOISTURE TO WORK
WITH IN THE EASTERN FORECAST AREA...WITH VERY UNSTABLE CONDITIONS AND
DEEP LAYER SHEAR ON THE ORDER OF 40KTS. ONLY THE NAM PAINTS ANY
PRECIPITATION AT THIS POINT...BUT IF ANYTHING GETS GOING PARAMETERS
SUGGEST SUPERCELLS WOULD BE POSSIBLE...MAINLY EAST OF A MCCOOK TO
TRIBUNE LINE.

AFOREMENTIONED SYSTEM WILL WORKS ITS WAY EASTWARD ALONG THE
US/CANADA BORDER EARLY NEXT WEEK AS RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE NORTHERN
ROCKIES. THE LOCAL AREA WILL BE UNDER NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT EARLY
IN THE WEEK BETWEEN THOSE TWO FEATURES. A SURFACE FRONT WILL
SETTLE INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS ON MONDAY WITH POST FRONTAL
UPSLOPE REGIME IN THE HIGH PLAINS. ANY WEAK DISTURBANCE IN THE
NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT SHOULD BE ENOUGH FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP
IN THIS PATTERN...SLIGHTLY FAVORING THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE AREA
WHERE THE SURFACE FRONT COULD BE LURKING...ESPECIALLY ON TUESDAY
AS IT TRIES TO RETURN NORTH AS A WARM FRONT. HOWEVER...THAT FRONT
WASHES OUT BY MID WEEK WITH PRECIPITATION CHANCES BECOMING TIED TO
WEAK DISTURBANCES ROTATING OUT OF THE CENTRAL ROCKIES OVER THE TOP
OF THE RIDGE AND MOIST SOUTHEASTERLY FLOW AT THE SURFACE. THE
RIDGE IS FORECAST TO GRADUALLY BUILD NORTHWARD TOWARDS THE END OF
THE LONG TERM PERIOD AND MAY EVENTUALLY GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO CAP
CONVECTION.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL ON SUNDAY...NEAR NORMAL ON
MONDAY...BELOW NORMAL TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY BEHIND THE
FRONT...THEN GRADUALLY WARM BACK TO NEAR AND ABOVE NORMAL TOWARDS
THE END OF THE WEEK UNDER THE RIDGE.
