AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS
310 PM CDT SAT MAR 29 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 309 PM CDT SAT MAR 29 2014

CURRENTLY HAVE ONE SHORTWAVE TROUGH OVER THE TENNESSEE VALLEY WITH
ANOTHER IMPULSE COMING ON SHORE OVER THE PACIFIC NW. AT THE
SURFACE...RIDGING EXTENDS FROM THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY INTO
CENTRAL TX WITH LEE TROUGHING QUICKLY DEEPENING OVER EASTERN CO.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 309 PM CDT SAT MAR 29 2014

THE MAIN STORY FOR THE FIRST COUPLE DAYS OF THIS FORECAST WILL BE
STRONG SOUTH WINDS ON SUN ALONG WITH FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS...AS
LOW PRESSURE RAPIDLY DEEPENS AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING SHORTWAVE. BY
SUN AFTERNOON THE SHORTWAVE WILL BE OVER THE GREAT BASIN AND OVER
THE CENTRAL ROCKIES BY SUN EVENING. CONFIDENCE IS HIGH THAT WE
WILL REACH WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA OVER MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA
SUN AFTERNOON WITH GUSTS AROUND 45 MPH COMMON...ESPECIALLY ALONG
AND WEST OF I-135. WITH PLENTY OF MIXING...TEMPS ON SUN WILL BE
ABLE TO REACH FULL HEATING POTENTIAL WITH 80S A GOOD BET FOR PARTS OF
CENTRAL KS.

UNFORTUNATELY THIS SYSTEM WILL NOT PROVIDE MUCH IN THE WAY OF
MOISTURE WITH JUST SOME ISO-SCT SHOWERS/STORMS POSSIBLE SUN EVENING INTO
EARLY MON MORNING...ESPECIALLY FOR LOCATIONS EAST OF I-135.
WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF WINDS ONCE AGAIN APPROACH WIND ADVISORY
CRITERIA ON MON AFTERNOON AS WE GET ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE LOW
WITH NW WINDS PROVIDING DEEP MIXING. THIS INCREASED MIXING WILL KEEP
TEMPS FROM FALLING OFF TOO MUCH ON MON WITH SOME DOWNSLOPE HELPING
TO KEEP READINGS IN THE 60S AND 70S. SHORT-LIVED SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
WILL SLIDE OVER THE AREA ON TUE KEEPING DRY CONDITIONS IN PLACE.

.LONG TERM...(TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 309 PM CDT SAT MAR 29 2014

MODELS STILL AGREE ON ANOTHER STRONG SHORTWAVE MOVING OVER THE
CENTRAL GREAT BASIN/DESERT SOUTHWEST ON WED. THIS WILL QUICKLY GET
THE PLAINS BACK INTO RETURN FLOW WITH AN OPEN GULF SCENARIO
SETTING UP. THE RAPID INFLUX OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE SHOULD DEVELOP
SOME ELEVATED STORMS TUE NIGHT ACROSS THE PLAINS. IN
ADDITION...FEEL THE PERSISTENT LOW LEVEL ISENTROPIC LIFT WILL
RESULT IN SOME DRIZZLE FOR LATE TUE NIGHT.

A TRIPLE POINT STILL LOOKS TO DEVELOP WED AFTERNOON WITH QUITE A
BIT OF UNCERTAINTY ON ITS LOCATION. BEST GUESS IS THAT IT WILL BE
IN THE CENTRAL KS TO OK PANHANDLE VICINITY WITH A DRYLINE
EXTENDING THROUGH WESTERN OK. WITH LACK OF LARGE SCALE
FORCING...THE MAIN QUESTION FOR CONVECTION WILL BE WHETHER THERE
WILL BE ENOUGH CONVERGENCE ALONG THE DRYLINE TO GET CONVECTION TO
DEVELOP. AT THIS POINT FAIRLY CONFIDENT THAT ANY CONVECTION THAT
DEVELOPS WILL BE FAIRLY ISO-SCT IN NATURE AS WEAK UPPER RIDGING
WILL BE PLACE FOR MOST OF WED. IT STILL APPEARS THAT AREAS
GENERALLY EAST OF THE KS TURNPIKE WOULD HAVE THE BEST SHOT AT
STORMS ON WED-WED NIGHT. THERE REMAINS MAJOR MODEL DISCREPANCIES
REGARDING THE TRACK OF THIS SHORTWAVE FOR THU-FRI. THE GFS HAS
MAINTAINED ITS MORE SOUTHERN TRACK WHILE THE ECMWF QUICKLY LIFTS
THIS FEATURE OVER NEBRASKA/SD. STARTING TO THINK THAT THE GFS MAY
HAVE A BETTER HANDLE AS IT HAS BEEN MORE CONSISTENT AND ALSO HAS
SUPPORT FROM THE UKMET. SO FOR NOW WILL LEAVE FAIRLY MODEST PRECIP
CHANCES IN FOR THU.

LAWSON

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SUNDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1229 PM CDT SAT MAR 29 2014

THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERN IS GOING TO BE THE GUSTY SOUTH WINDS
SUNDAY. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE IS OVERHEAD THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL
SLIDE EASTWARD THROUGH THE AFTERNOON/EVENING. THE LIGHT WINDS AND
SMOKE IN THE REGION HAVE CAUSED HAZY CONDITIONS WITH MVFR
VISIBILITIES. EXPECT THIS TO DIMINISH AS WINDS INCREASE DURING THE
LATE AFTERNOON.  SOUTHERLY GRADIENT WINDS WILL RETURN WITH A
VENGEANCE SUNDAY. EXPECT WINDS TO EXCEED 26 KTS AT
KRSL/KHUT/KSLN/KICT BY 14-15Z SUNDAY MORNING. STRONG WINDS WILL
ALSO PERSIST AT KCNU...BUT SLIGHTLY LESS THAN THE OTHERS.

BILLINGS WRIGHT

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
ISSUED AT 309 PM CDT SAT MAR 29 2014

SERIOUS FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WILL BE IN PLACE FOR BOTH SUN AND
MON.

VERY STRONG SOUTH WINDS ARE STILL ON TAP FOR SUN AFTERNOON WITH
GUSTS TO 45 MPH COMMON...ESPECIALLY FOR LOCATIONS ALONG AND WEST
OF I-135. WILL RUN WITH A RED FLAG WARNING FOR THE ENTIRE AREA
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SE KS...WHERE SOME GREENING UP HAS OCCURRED
OVER THE LAST WEEK. UNLIKE THE LAST HIGH WIND EVENT...SPEEDS
SHOULD QUICKLY DECREASE AROUND SUNSET. RH'S ON SUN AFTERNOON WILL
GENERALLY BE IN THE 25 TO 30% RANGE WITH THE LOWER VALUES OVER
CENTRAL KS. WINDS WILL FLIP AROUND TO THE NORTHWEST ON MON BUT
WILL AGAIN BE FAIRLY STRONG WITH SOME GUSTS APPROACHING 40 MPH FOR
AREAS GENERALLY WEST IF I-135. WITH RH'S STAYING ON THE LOW
SIDE...THE GRASSLAND FIRE DANGER INDEX WILL AT LEAST BE IN THE
VERY HIGH CATEGORY ACROSS MOST OF THE AREA WITH EXTREME VALUES
STILL A POSSIBILITY OVER CENTRAL KS.
