.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 251 PM CDT SUN JUN 29 2014

TONIGHT AND TOMORROW.  CONVECTION CHANCES TO HEADLINE
THE SHORT TERM DISCUSSION.  KEEPING SLIGHT CHANCE TO LOW END CHANCE
OF POPS IN THE FORECAST FOR LOCATIONS GENERALLY EAST OF HIGHWAY 83
THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.  UNDER MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES THE ATMOSPHERE
HAS UNDERGONE STRONG DESTABILIZATION...WITH THE OPERATIONAL RAP AND
LATEST LAPS DATA GENERATING UPWARDS OF 3000 J/KG OF MUCAPE ACROSS
SOUTHEASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA.  WITH OPTIMAL DEEP SHEAR
IN PLACE...STORMS...SOME OF WHICH MAY BE SEVERE WITH HAIL AND
DAMAGING WIND BEING THE PRIMARY THREATS...ARE ANTICIPATED TO FORM.
A SIGNIFICANT -10 TO -30C CONTRIBUTION TO THE CAPE /CLOSING ON A
1000 J/KG/ WOULD SUPPORT SOME LARGE HAIL.  THE LATEST NEAR TERM
CONVECTION ALLOWING MODELS GENERATES THE PROJECTED ACTIVITY WELL TO
THE EAST OF THE CWA...BUT RECENT SATELLITE OBS INDICATE OTHERWISE
WITH THE FORMATION OF A AGITATED CU FIELD ACROSS CUSTER COUNTY.
WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE CONVECTIVE TRENDS.  WEST OF THIS
AREA...INSTABILITY AND AVAILABLE CAPE DECREASES RAPIDLY...ONLY
ISOLATED GENERAL STORMS WOULD BE POSSIBLE.

FOR THE OVERNIGHT...INCREASINGLY RICH THETA-E BUILDS BACK TO THE
NORTHWEST WITH THE STRENGTHENING OF A LLJ.  THE THREAT OF STORMS
WILL REMAIN THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT FOR LOCATIONS MAINLY EAST OF
HIGHWAY 83.  OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL RANGE FROM THE 50S ACROSS THE
NORTHWEST...TO MID 60S ACROSS THE EAST.

SLIGHTLY COOLER FOR MONDAY WITH A FRONTAL PASSAGE EARLY.  HIGHS IN
THE 70S TO LOWER 80S SHOULD PREVAIL.  LINGERING POST FRONTAL STORMS
ARE POSSIBLE EARLY MONDAY ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA...BUT BY
AFTERNOON THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD BE OFF TO THE EAST.

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 251 PM CDT SUN JUN 29 2014

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...A REINFORCING CANADIAN COLD FRONT
WILL MOVE THROUGH TUESDAY. THE PRECEDING PACIFIC COLD FRONT SUPPORTS
LOWS IN THE 50S TUESDAY MORNING. LOWS WEDNESDAY MORNING ARE ABOUT 5F
COLDER FOR LOWS IN THE LOWER 50S. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR COOLER LOWS
WEDNESDAY MORNING BUT THE MODELS SHOW 850MB-700MB CLOUDS WRAPPING
SOUTH AROUND A DEPARTING UPPER LEVEL LOW ACROSS ONTARIO.

RAIN CHANCES CONTINUE IN PLACE TUESDAY WITH COLD AIR MOVING IN
ALOFT. H700MB TEMPERATURES FALL TO 6C TO 10C AND HIGHS RISE TO ONLY
70 NORTH. NORTHWEST WINDS INCREASE TO 20 TO 30 MPH TUESDAY WITH
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING SOUTH ALSO.

THE COLD AIR ALOFT MOVES OFF EAST WEDNESDAY FOR HIGHS 75 TO 80 WITH
NEARLY FULL SUN AND LIGHT WINDS...A COMPLETE REVERSE OF TUESDAYS
WIND...CLOUDS...SHOWERS AND COOLER TEMPERATURES.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...THE MODELS ARE IN VERY GOOD
AGREEMENT PRODUCING 20 TO 25 MPH SLY RETURN FLOW THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY. THE WARMING TREND IS SLOWER GIVEN THE STRONGER PUSH OF
CANADIAN AIR TUESDAY FOR HIGHS IN THE 80S TO AROUND 90 THURSDAY
THROUGH SUNDAY. REGARDLESS...INSTABILITY INCREASES IN THE
ECM...GFS AND GEM MODELS THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. IF WINDS ALOFT
CAN REMAIN STRONG AS SHOWN THE GEM AND GFS SOLNS THEN ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS COULD DEVELOP IN A NORTHWEST FLOW REGIME THURSDAY
AND BEYOND. THE ECM BUILDS THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE STRONGLY
PRODUCING WEAK WINDS ALOFT. THE FORECAST FOLLOWS THE GFS AND
INCLUDES ISOLATED POPS WHICH FITS THE CLASSIC JULY NORTHWEST FLOW
CLIMATOLOGY.
