AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
323 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014

...UPDATED FOR 18Z AVIATION DISCUSSION...

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 312 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014

THIS EVENING-TONIGHT: CURRENT SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS SHOW LINE
PUSHING ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL AND CENTRAL KS. AN UNSTABLE AIRMASS
IS STILL LOCATED AHEAD OF THIS DRY LINE OVER SE KS...WITH SBCAPE
VALUES APPROACHING 2000 J/KG. ATMOSPHERE IS BECOMING UNCAPPED
AHEAD OF THIS DRYLINE...SO THINK SOME ISOLATED DISCRETE SUPERCELL
STORMS WILL REDEVELOP LATE THIS AFTERNOON ACROSS SE KS. BULK SHEAR
OF 50-60 KTS AND ABOVE MENTIONED INSTABILITY STILL SUGGESTS A
SEVERE STORM CHANCE...WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS THE MAIN
CONCERN. THERE IS A SMALL WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY FOR A TORNADO OR
TWO...RIGHT AFTER THE STORMS MATURE...IF SURFACE WINDS CAN BACK
SOME TO THE SOUTHEAST.

SHORT TERM MODELS SUGGEST THAT SEVERE STORM CHANCES WILL BE SHORT
LIVED IN SE KS AND WILL BASICALLY MOVE EAST OF THE AREA BY AROUND
6PM AS THE DRY LINE PUSHES EAST AND NE OF THE AREA INTO NE KS AND SW
MO.

THE DRY LINE HAS ALREADY PUSHED EAST OF CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KS
WITH DRIER AIR OVER MOST AREAS WEST OF INTERSTATE 135. GUSTY WINDS
TO 50 MPH CONTINUE IN THE DRIER AIR...AS THE MAIN SURFACE LOW
CREATES A VERY TIGHT GRADIENT.  THINK THE STRONG SURFACE WINDS WILL
CONTINUE UNTIL SUNSET BEHIND THIS DRY LINE...BEFORE DROPPING OFF
SOME AFTER DARK. LATEST VISIBLE SATELLITE ALSO SHOWS LOTS OF BLOWING
DUST PUSHING INTO SOUTH CENTRAL AND CENTRAL KS AS WELL.

SHORT RANGE MODELS SHOW SURFACE LOW LIFTING NE INTO NEB
OVERNIGHT...WITH ANY DIURNALLY DRIVEN SHOWER ACTIVITY UNDERNEATH THE
LOW DIMINISHING.

MON-TUE: THE MAIN UPPER LOW LOOKS TO OCCLUDE OVER ERN NEB ON
MON...WITH MOST OF KS ON THE SRN SIDE OF THIS STRONG UPPER LOW.
TIGHT GRADIENT ON THE SRN SIDE WILL LEAD TO STRONG GUSTY WINDS FOR
CENTRAL KS AGAIN ON MON. 850H WINDS ALSO REMAIN AROUND 45-50 KTS
AND EXPECT SOME OF THIS MID LEVEL WIND TO BE TRANSFERRED TO THE
GROUND VIA MOMENTUM TRANSFER. SO WILL GO WITH A WIND ADVISORY
AGAIN FOR MON FOR AREAS NORTH HIGHWAY 50.

WRAPAROUND MOISTURE ASSOCIATED WITH THE BACKSIDE OF THIS UPPER LOW
MAY LEAD TO SOME DIURNAL SHOWERS MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL KS AND
EVENTUALLY INTO SOUTHERN KS...FOR MON AFTERNOON.  WILL KEEP A LOW
POP IN FOR THIS CHANCE.

UPPER LOW SITS AND SPINS OVER ERN NEB INTO NE KS FOR TUE AS WELL.
THIS WOBBLE TO THE SOUTH MAY LEAD TO INCREASED SHOWER COVERAGE
DIRECTLY UNDER THE UPPER LOW FOR MON NIGHT INTO TUE FOR MOST OF THE
FORECAST AREA...SO WILL GO WITH A MORE SOLID CHANCE POP FOR THIS
TIME FRAME. NOT SURE IF WILL SEE ANY EMBEDDED THUNDER WITH THIS
ACTIVITY AS INSTABILITY REMAINS VERY LOW. STRENGTH OF THE WINDS
ROTATING AROUND THE UPPER LOW WILL CONTINUE TO BE A CONCERN FOR TUE
AS WELL...ESPECIALLY OVER CEN KS.

KETCHAM

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 312 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014

UPPER LOW MEANDERS INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION FOR THE MIDDLE TO THE
END OF THE WEEK.  THIS WILL KEEP MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA IN N-NW
FLOW...WITH POSSIBLY SOME LINGERING SHOWERS ACROSS NE KS. EXPECT THE
COOLER THAN NORMAL TEMPS TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA FOR AT LEAST
WED AS MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA STAYS IN THE NORTHERLY FLOW...BEFORE
TEMPS BEGIN TO MODERATE SOME TOWARDS THE WEEKEND.

KETCHAM

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 109 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014

STILL ANTICIPATING POTENTIAL FOR A FEW ISOLATED TO WIDELY
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS TO REDEVELOP GENERALLY ALONG/EAST OF THE
FLINT HILLS THIS AFTERNOON AND PERSIST INTO THE EVENING...AS A
DRYLINE AND ASSOCIATED STRONG UPPER TROUGH CONTINUES TO ADVANCE
EAST. CONSEQUENTLY...HELD ONTO VCTS WORDING AT KCNU.
OTHERWISE...STRONG/GUSTY SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS ARE ANTICIPATED
AREAWIDE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. WINDS SHOULD SLACKEN SOME
OVERNIGHT BUT STILL REMAIN BREEZY OUT OF THE WEST/SOUTHWEST. LATER
TONIGHT...MVFR TO LOW VFR CIGS WILL BE POSSIBLE...AS COLD
ADVECTION COMMENCES IN WAKE OF A COLD FRONT. STRONG/GUSTY WEST TO
NORTHWEST WINDS ANTICIPATED MONDAY...AS LOW PRESSURE SITS AND
SPINS NORTH OF THE REGION.

ADK

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
ISSUED AT 312 PM CDT SUN APR 27 2014

STRONG WEST-NORTHWEST WINDS AND CONTINUED DRY CONDITIONS FOR AREAS
WEST OF INTERSTATE 135 WILL LEAD TO ANOTHER ELEVATED FIRE DANGER DAY
ON MONDAY.  VERY HIGH TO EXTREME GRASSLAND FIRE DANGER VALUES ARE
POSSIBLE FOR AREAS WHICH DIDNT SEE ANY SUBSTANTIAL RAINFALL...
MAINLY ACROSS CENTRAL KANSAS.
