AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTH PLATTE NE
626 PM CDT THU JUL 10 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 323 PM CDT THU JUL 10 2014

AT H5 STRING OF CLOSED LOWS FROM THE GULF OF ALASKA INTO CENTRAL
CANADA AND NORTHEAST CANADA. HIGH OVER SOUTHERN CONUS WITH MAINLY
ZONAL FLOW FROM THE WEST COAST INTO THE GREAT LAKES. AT THE
SURFACE WARM FRONT MOVING EAST INTO THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE SOUTH TO
AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE OVER SOUTHEAST COLORADO WITH STATIONARY
BOUNDARY FROM THE OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE TO DC.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 323 PM CDT THU JUL 10 2014

CONVECTION CHANCES HIGHLIGHT THE SHORT TERM
DISCUSSION.  LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...UPPER RIDGE ATOP THE
CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PLAINS WILL CONTINUE TO BREAK DOWN
/FLATTENED/ BY A DEEP UPPER TROUGH ADVANCING EAST ACROSS THE
CANADIAN PRAIRIES.  WITH QUASI-ZONAL FLOW IN PLACE...WEAK
DISTURBANCE PASSING THROUGH THE FLOW WILL AID IN FOCUSING
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ALONG AN INVERTED SURFACE TROUGH SHOWN TO
BISECT THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE NORTH INTO CENTRAL NEBRASKA THIS
EVENING.  WITH AMPLE INSTABILITY IN PLACE AND 0-6KM SHEAR AS HIGH AS
45 KTS...SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE.  LARGE HAIL AND GUSTY WIND WILL
ONCE AGAIN BE EXPECTED.  LATEST MESOANALYSIS ACROSS CENTRAL AND
WESTERN NEBRASKA INDICATE CAPE VALUES IN EXCESS OF 2000 J/KG WITH
THE AFOREMENTIONED SHEAR ALREADY IN PLACE...BUT MODERATE CAPPING
REMAINS...STORM INITIATION SHOULD HOLD OFF UNTIL LATE
AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING.  INTO THE OVERNIGHT...A LOW LEVEL JET IS
SHOWN TO INTENSIFY AND HELP FOCUS FURTHER DEVELOPMENT INTO
CONVECTIVE CLUSTERS.  THE LATEST CONVECTIVE ALLOWING MODELS HAVE
TRENDED A BIT FURTHER SOUTH WITH PROJECTIVE ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT
REACHING AS FAR SOUTH AS THE INTERSTATE 80 CORRIDOR.  SUFFICIENT
ELEVATED CAPE WILL KEEP THE THREAT OF SEVERE HAIL GOING INTO THE
EARLY DAWN HOURS.  ATTM...THE GREATEST CHANCES OF OVERNIGHT ELEVATED
STORMS WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE NORTH...BUT AT THAT...CHANCES WILL
REMAIN LESS THAN 40 PERCENT AS SUFFICIENT MODEL SUPPORT/TIMING IS
SOMEWHAT LACKING.

FRIDAY...A FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL STRETCH NORTHEAST ACROSS
SOUTHERN/CENTRAL NEBRASKA WITHIN A FAVORABLE MOIST AND UNSTABLE
ENVIRONMENT.  AS DIABATIC HEATING FULLY COMMENCES STORMS SHOULD
BEGIN TO DEVELOP AND POTENTIALLY BECOME SEVERE...AIDED BY EFFECTIVE
BULK SHEAR OF GREATER THAN 30 KTS. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND WILL
ONCE AGAIN BE EXPECTED. HIGHEST POP CHANCES WILL BE ACROSS THE WEST
DURING THE AFTERNOON...WITH THE GREATER COVERAGE OCCURRING BEYOND
00Z SATURDAY WITH THE INTENSIFICATION OF THE LLJ.  AS IS THE CASE
FOR THIS EVENING...MODEL CONSISTENCY AND AGREEMENT IS SOMEWHAT
LACKING...THUS YIELDING LOWER CONFIDENCE IN THE SHORT TERM
CONVECTIVE FORECAST.

FOR TEMPERATURES...WILL CONTINUE TO EMPLOY A GENERAL BLEND OF
NUMERICAL GUIDANCE WITH THE PREVIOUS FORECAST...THIS BLEND SUGGESTS
HIGHS IN THE MID 80S TO LOWER 90S NORTH TO SOUTH ACROSS THE
CWA...WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS TONIGHT MAINLY IN THE MID 60S.

.LONG TERM...(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 323 PM CDT THU JUL 10 2014

MID AND LONG TERM MODELS HAVING SOME DIFFERENCES WITH PLACEMENTS
OF SURFACE BOUNDARIES AND TIMING OF WAVES THROUGH FAST ZONAL FLOW.
WILL USE A BLEND FOR THE FORECAST IN MID TERM. MAIN FORECAST
CHALLENGE PRECIPITATION THIS WEEKEND INTO THE FIRST PART OF THE
WEEK AND THEN COOL DOWN. SURFACE LOW AND BOUNDARY OVER NORTHWEST
KANSAS FRIDAY EVENING WITH COOL FRONT OVER SOUTH DAKOTA. BOUNDARY
TO LIFT NORTH THROUGH THE EVENING WITH THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT
ALONG THE BOUNDARY AS THE LOW LEVEL JET KICKS IN. BUFR SOUNDINGS
HAVE UNSTABLE BOUNDARY LAYER AND MUCAPES APPROACHING 250O J/KG.
BULK SHEAR AROUND 30 TO 40KTS WILL AID IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUPER
CELLS ALONG THE QUASI STATIONARY BOUNDARY WHICH WILL LIE SOME
WHERE ACROSS THE CWA. SLOW STORM MOVEMENT AND PW'S AROUND AN INCH
COULD BRING SOME MODERATE RAINFALL AMOUNTS. SOME LINGERING TSRA
SATURDAY MORNING ALONG THE BOUNDARY. WITH HEATING OF THE DAY AND
WAVE MOVING THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING STORMS REGENERATE ALONG THE
BOUNDARY OVER SOUTHERN NEBRASKA. BOUNDARY MOVES SOUTH INTO KANSAS
AS HUDSON BAY LOW RETROGRADES AND MOVES SOUTH INTO THE NORTHERN
PLAINS. FEW LINGERING SHOWERS SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT AS UPPER LOW
OVER CENTRAL CANADA PUSHES WAVES THROUGH IN FAST NORTHWEST FLOW.
MUCH COOLER TEMPERATURES MOVING AS STRONG UPPER LOW DROPS ACROSS
MINNESOTA WITH TEMPERATURES LOWERING INTO THE 70S ACROSS THE CWA.
TEMPERATURES MAY HAVE TO BE LOWERED. TEMPERATURES SLOWLY RISING
INTO THE 80S BY BY THURSDAY AND DRY AS THE UPPER LOW PUSHES A COLD
FRONT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE GULF WITH COOLER DRIER
AIR MOVING INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 625 PM CDT THU JUL 10 2014

THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEGUN DEVELOPING NEAR A SURFACE TROUGH IN WESTERN
NEBRASKA. THE TROUGH RUNS FROM ABOUT 40NM WEST OF VTN TO ABOUT 40NM
WEST OF OGA. THUNDERSTORMS FORMING ALONG THAT TROUGH ARE LIKELY TO
ORGANIZE INTO A LINE THIS EVENING AND GO THROUGH THE VTN-LBF AREA
01-03Z. WITH MOST OF THE STORMS REMAINING NORTH OF LBF IN THAT
PERIOD WE WILL NOT INCLUDE THUNDER IN THE FORECAST FOR LBF.
HOWEVER...BETWEEN 03Z AND 05Z...SHORT RANGE PROJECTIONS INDICATE A
MORE ORGANIZED THUNDERSTORM SYSTEM LIKELY TO BRING AT HAIL...GUSTY
WIND AND HEAVY RAIN TO BOTH LBF AND VTN.

.LBF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

THERE REMAINS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING ACROSS MUCH OF THE SANDHILLS
REGION...INCLUDING NORTHWEST AND NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA. DAMAGING
WIND GUSTS AND LARGE HAIL ARE THE PRIMARY THREAT FROM ANY STORM
THAT DEVELOPS. THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT TONIGHT AS A
LOW LEVEL JET BECOMES A FOCUS FOR ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT.
SUFFICIENT ELEVATED INSTABILITY IN THE ATMOSPHERE WOULD ALLOW FOR
A HAIL AND DAMAGING WIND THREAT OVERNIGHT. THE THREAT AREA FOR THE
OVERNIGHT STORMS IS ACROSS THE CENTRAL SANDHILLS AND NORTHEAST
INTO NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE ENTIRE OUTLOOK AREA
FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING...WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS
BEING THE PRIMARY THREATS.

ON SATURDAY...STRONG THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE DURING THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. AT THIS TIME...THE THREAT OF WIDESPREAD
SEVERE WEATHER IS LOW.
