AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TOPEKA KS
1212 AM CDT Thu Jun 12 2014

...AVIATION UPDATE...

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Thursday)
Issued at 246 PM CDT WED JUN 11 2014

Water vapor imagery showed the exiting mid-level trough advancing
into the Ohio River valley with a weak mid-level ridge stretching
across the Southern and Central Plains. A large mid-level trough was
situated over Canada and clipping the Northern Plains. Models show
this trough deepening and digging further south tonight, which will
help to push an area of low pressure and an associated cold front
eastward across the region. Additionally, a weak embedded shortwave
was noted on water vapor imagery over northern Colorado. Models are
in good agreement in this wave strengthening as it gets caught up in
the frontal passage, with an MCS potentially developing overnight
and tracking southeastward across the state. Short-range model runs
have been consistent in keeping conditions dry across the region
through early to mid evening, with the SW- to NE-oriented cold front
likely advancing into north central Kansas between 03z-05z. The cap
that's currently in place should weaken this evening, but lapse
rates don't look to be that great with soundings showing deep
moist-adiabatic conditions. MUCAPE values may be upwards of
2500-2800 J/kg with 0-6km bulk shear upwards of 20-30kts, so these
conditions may be enough to get a few strong to severe thunderstorms
to develop through late this evening as this line of storms enters
into north central Kansas. The threats with the strongest storms
would be large hail and damaging winds. However, another concern
will be for the potential for some heavy rain and localized flash
flooding as PWAT values are upwards of 1.7-1.9 inches. Many
locations received 2-4" of rain from Monday's system, resulting in
very saturated ground, so the 1-hour flash flood guidance for much
of the region is 1.5-1.9 inches. So this flash flood concern will
need to be monitored through the overnight hours. As the cold
front tracks across the region overnight, widespread post-frontal
showers and thunderstorms are expected with north central Kansas
likely drying out by Thursday morning. This cold front should be
southeast of the area by mid morning with the post-frontal
precipitation over eastern Kansas diminishing by late morning
through early afternoon.

As for temperatures, southerly winds and mostly clear skies allowed
temperatures to rise into the low to mid 80s this afternoon. With
the increasing cloud cover overnight from the precipitation, low
temperatures will be a bit warmer tonight with lows only dropping
into the low/mid 60s. The combination of gradually decreasing cloud
cover and northerly winds behind the front will result in
below-normal temperatures for Thursday with highs only expected to
reach into the middle/upper 70s.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday Night through Wednesday)
Issued at 246 PM CDT WED JUN 11 2014

A ridge of high pressure builds southeastward across eastern KS
Thursday night with mostly clear skies and calm winds toward
morning.  This could lead to some patchy dense fog for areas of east
central KS around sunrise Friday.  Temps are expected to be cool
with lows in the middle 50s.  On Friday, the high moves off to the
east while low pressure develops in the lee of the Rockies, turning
the winds to south.  Highs are not expected to be too warm with
mainly upper 70s expected.

A piece of the western U.S. trough comes out onto the Plains
Saturday and Saturday night with increasing chances for
thunderstorms by Saturday evening.  The front associated with this
trough stalls near Kansas for the early to middle part of next week
with disturbances in broadly cyclonic upper flow periodically moving
through.  While the best dynamics should be to our north, there will
be enough lift with these systems in proximity to the front to give
chances for thunderstorms each day. High temperatures for the
weekend through the middle part of next week should be mostly in
the 80s. With increasing low-level moisture, overnight lows from
Sunday through Wednesday are forecast in the upper 60s to around
70.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFs through 06Z Thursday Night)
Issued at 1212 AM CDT THU JUN 12 2014

Showers and Thunderstorms should continue moving east through the
morning. The latest HRRR seems to have a good handle on the
overall progression. Therefore have adjusted the timing in the
forecasts based on the HRRR. Biggest uncertainty is whether MVFR
conditions will move in. OBs upstream generally show VFR
conditions, even within the stratiform rain. Therefore have backed
off on the MVFR conditions and will monitor trends.
