AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
503 PM CDT WED APR 1 2015

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 458 PM CDT WED APR 1 2015

STORMS HAVE STARTED TO INITIATE ALONG THE COLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY
THIS EVENING...TO THE NORTH OF OUR CWA. MESOANALYSIS INDICATES
INDICATES WEAKENING INHIBITION ALONG THE BOUNDARY AND LOOK FOR THE
FRONT TO BECOME MORE ACTIVE IN THE NEXT HOUR OR TWO.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 403 PM CDT WED APR 1 2015

N APPROACHING COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO BE THE FOCUS FOR
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS AS IT
CONTINUES TO APPROACH THE LOCAL AREA. AS OF 3 PM...THIS FRONT WAS
KNOCKING ON THE WESTERN FRINGES OF THE LOCAL AREA...AND IT IS
EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO TRACK SOUTHEAST AND BE COMPLETELY THROUGH
THE OUR FORECAST ZONES BY THE PRE-DAWN HOURS THURSDAY.

WITH DEWPOINTS NOT CLIMBING TO THE EXPECTED LEVELS AHEAD OF THIS
FRONT...INSTABILITY VALUES ARE NOT QUITE AS HIGH AS SOME OF THE
MODELS WERE PREVIOUSLY FORECASTING. THAT SAID...SPC MESOANALYSIS IS
STILL INDICATING WE HAVE ABOUT 1000 J/KG OF CAPE TO WORK WITH AT THE
MOMENT...SO STILL EXPECT TO SEE SOME STRONG TO MARGINALLY SEVERE
STORMS DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT. ADDITIONALLY...WITH MUCH OF THE
LOCAL AREA STILL IN THE SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER...FELT NO
NEED TO TONE DOWN PREVIOUS FORECAST...AS WE COULD STILL SEE LARGE
HAIL AND STRONG WINDS WITH THE STRONGER STORMS THAT DO
DEVELOP...WITH THE BIGGEST IMPACT LIKELY BEING SLIGHTLY LEES
COVERAGE THAN WAS ORIGINALLY THOUGHT 24 HOURS AGO.

ALSO AS OF 3 PM CDT...SOME SMALL CELLS WERE ALREADY TRYING TO
DEVELOP ACROSS NORTHWESTERN KANSAS...WHICH IS IN LINE WITH MESOSCALE
MODELS. AS A RESULT...STILL THINK MOST AREAS WILL SEE SOME
MEASURABLE RAINFALL WITH THIS FRONT AS CELLS EXPAND IN COVERAGE AND
INTENSITY THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON THROUGH EVENING HOURS...WITH
RAINFALL TOTALS FROM THE TRI-CITIES SOUTHEASTWARD EXPECTED TO BE
MORE AROUND ONE QUARTER TO ONE HALF AN INCH. THAT SAID...AS WITH ANY
THUNDERSTORMS...HIGHER AMOUNTS WILL DEFINITELY BE POSSIBLE IN
ISOLATED LOCATIONS.

OTHERWISE...WITH A TEMPERATURE DROP OF OVER 10C AT 850MB BEHIND THIS
FRONT...EXPECT A SIGNIFICANTLY COOLER DAY TO THE DAY ON THURSDAY...
WITH HIGHS GENERALLY ONLY CLIMBING INTO THE LOWER TO MID 60S. IN
ADDITION...WHILE RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES WILL LIKELY FALL TO NEAR
CRITICAL VALUES DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS AS DRIER AIR ADVECTS IN
FROM THE NORTH...WINDS SHOULD BE MUCH LIGHTER THAN THEY WERE
TODAY...SO ELEVATED...BUT NOT NEAR CRITICAL...FIRE WEATHER
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TOMORROW AFTERNOON.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 403 PM CDT WED APR 1 2015

ALTHOUGH THE MAJORITY OF THIS 6-DAY PERIOD IS LOOKING RELATIVELY
QUIET...THERE ARE SOME DECENT UNCERTAINTIES IN PRECIPITATION
POTENTIAL ESPECIALLY FROM SUNDAY NIGHT AND BEYOND. AS A
RESULT...THE FORECAST FOR EARLY-MID NEXT WEEK PROBABLY "SOUNDS"
MORE RAINY THAN IT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE...NOW THAT SEVERAL FORECAST
PERIODS NOW CONTAIN LOW-CONFIDENCE/SLIGHT CHANCE MENTIONS OF
SHOWERS AND/OR THUNDERSTORMS. IN THE NEARER-TERM...CONFIDENCE IS
ACTUALLY INCREASING THAT MUCH OF THE CWA (ESPECIALLY SOUTH HALF)
WILL SEE AT LEAST SOME LIGHT MEASURABLE RAIN POTENTIAL THURSDAY
NIGHT...WHICH COULD (REPEAT COULD) EVEN MIX WITH A FEW WET
SNOWFLAKES AFTER MIDNIGHT BEFORE ENDING.

AS FOR POTENTIAL WEATHER HAZARDS THAT REQUIRE MENTION IN THE
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK (HWOGID)...OTHER THAN THE VERY "IFFY"
CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY NIGHT-MONDAY THE ONLY
FORESEEABLE ISSUES AT THIS POINT ARE ANOTHER ROUND OF ENHANCED
FIRE DANGER FOR FRIDAY AND ESPECIALLY SATURDAY AFTERNOONS. PLEASE
REFER TO THE SEPARATE FIRE WEATHER SECTION BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS.

TEMPERATURE-WISE...THIS 6-DAY PERIOD LOOKS TO CONTINUE A NEAR-
TO-ABOVE AVERAGE TREND. ALTHOUGH THERE IS THE TYPICAL FAIRLY HIGH
DEGREE OF UNCERTAINTY BY THE NEXT TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY TIME
FRAME...AT LEAST FOR NOW ALL DAYS FROM SATURDAY-TUESDAY ARE
FORECAST TO REACH HIGHS WELL INTO THE 60S/70S. MEANWHILE...THE
VERY FIRST DAY OF THE LONG TERM (FRIDAY) ALONG WITH THE VERY LAST
(WEDNESDAY) ARE SLATED TO BE THE OVERALL-COOLEST WITH HIGHS ONLY
IN THE MID-UPPER 50S MOST AREAS.

NOW TURNING TO GREATER DETAIL IN MAINLY 12-48 HOUR BLOCKS:

THURSDAY EVENING/NIGHT: ALTHOUGH WE HAVE NOT REALLY BEEN
ADVERTISING IT AS SUCH UP UNTIL NOW...THERE ARE ACTUALLY SIGNS
THAT ESPECIALLY WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA MAY REALIZE A BETTER
CHANCE OF MEASURABLE RAIN HERE THAN THEY DO WITH THE MORE
IMMINENT CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS LATE THIS AFTERNOON-TONIGHT. IN
THE MID LEVELS...A FAIRLY HEALTHY GENERALLY WEST-EAST ORIENTED
BAND OF FRONTOGENESIS IS EXPECTED TO FOCUS ACROSS MAINLY THE
SOUTHERN 1/2 OF THE CWA...AS A LOW-AMPLITUDE/BROAD SHORTWAVE
TROUGH MOVES INTO/OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS. PROBABLY DID NOT RAISE
POPS ENOUGH...BUT AT LEAST HAVE MOST OF THE SOUTHERN 1/2 OF THE
CWA INTO THE 30-60 PERCENT RANGE (HIGHEST IN KS ZONES). ALTHOUGH
NOT LOOKING AT "SOAKING" AMOUNTS...SOME PLACES COULD SEE GENERALLY
10-20 HUNDREDTHS ESPECIALLY IF SOME ENHANCED BANDING SETS UP.
ALTHOUGH NOT EXPECTING AN ALL-OUT TRANSITION TO LIGHT SNOW
GIVEN THAT THE VERY LOWEST LEVELS SHOULD STAY SEVERAL DEGREES
ABOVE FREEZING...CANNOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT SOME WET SNOWFLAKES
MIXING IN AFTER MIDNIGHT PER 850 MILLIBAR TEMPS...AND HAVE KEPT A
LIGHT SNOW POSSIBILITY IN THERE ALONG WITH THE PREVAILING RAIN.
MADE LITTLE CHANGE TO LOW TEMPS...AIMING FROM NEAR 30 FAR
NORTHWEST TO MID-UPPER 30S MOST OTHER AREAS. NORTH WIND IS LOOKING
A BIT BREEZY THROUGH MOST OF THE NIGHT WITH SUSTAINED SPEEDS
GENERALLY 15-20 MPH.

FRIDAY DAYTIME-NIGHT: OTHER THAN A SLIGHT CHANCE OF LINGERING
LIGHT PRECIP IN KS ZONES FOR THE FIRST FEW HOURS AFTER
SUNRISE...KEPT THE REMAINDER OF THIS TIME FRAME DRY AND WITH
FAIRLY HIGH CONFIDENCE IN THAT IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING
SHORTWAVE AND SURFACE COLD FRONT. THE MAIN FEATURE DURING THE DAY
WILL BE SOMEWHAT BREEZY NORTHWEST WINDS...ALTHOUGH THEY SHOULD
GRADUALLY DIMINISH AS THE AFTERNOON WEARS ON. MADE ONLY MINOR
TWEAKS TO DAYTIME HIGHS AIMED MAINLY MID 50S...AND NIGHT LOWS
AIMED MAINLY LOW 30S.

SATURDAY DAYTIME-NIGHT: CONTINUED HIGH CONFIDENCE IN DRY
WEATHER...BUT AS MENTIONED FIRE CONCERNS ARE ON THE INCREASE AS
GUSTY SOUTHWEST WIND RAMPS UP...WITH GUSTS TO OVER 30 MPH LIKELY.
THESE WINDS SHOULD AID ROUGHLY A 15-DEGREE WARM UP VERSUS FRIDAY
WITH MOST OF THE CWA AIMED BETWEEN 67-72.

SUNDAY DAYTIME-MONDAY NIGHT: FOR THE MOST PART...THE MAJORITY OF
THIS 48-HOUR PERIOD IS LOOKING DRY...AND ALMOST ASSUREDLY SO
SUNDAY DAYTIME. HOWEVER...HAVE STUCK WITH SOME LOW-CONFIDENCE
SLIGHT CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS IN EASTERN/NORTHERN ZONES SUNDAY
NIGHT INTO MONDAY...WITH MAYBE A SOMEWHAT BETTER CHANCE FOR
SHOWERS IN NORTHERN ZONES MONDAY NIGHT PER THE LATEST ECMWF.
PLENTY OF UNCERTAINTY HERE.

TUESDAY DAYTIME-WEDNESDAY DAYTIME: WITH A MODEST SHORTWAVE TROUGH
APPROACHING THE CENTRAL PLAINS IN WEST-SOUTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT...MAINTAINED VARIOUS LOW CHANCES FOR SHOWERS (BUT NOT
THUNDERSTORMS AT THIS TIME) WITHIN THE CWA. HOWEVER...MOST OF THIS
TIME FRAME SHOULD PREVAIL DRY...WITH POTENTIALLY GREATER CHANCES
FOR RAIN SETTING IN JUST BEYOND THE CURRENT OFFICIAL FORECAST
PERIOD BY WED NIGHT-THURSDAY. LOTS TO SORT OUT HERE...

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 21Z KGRI/KEAR TAFS THROUGH 21Z THURSDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 458 PM CDT WED APR 1 2015

THE FOCUS FOR THE TAF PERIOD IS THE PASSAGE OF A COLD
FRONTAL BOUNDARY THIS EVENING. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO CROSS THE
TERMINALS AROUND 00Z OR SHORTLY THEREAFTER. THE COLD FRONTAL
BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO INITIATE TSTMS DURING THE EVENING AND RADAR
INDICATES STORMS ALREADY FIRING AND JUST NEED THE LINE TO FILL
IN...IN ORDER TO AFFECT THE TERMINALS. GUSTY SOUTH WINDS AHEAD OF
THE FRONT WILL BECOME LIGHT/VARIABLE BRIEFLY BEFORE SWITCHING
NORTHERLY AND INCREASING BEHIND THE BOUNDARY. NORTH WIND GUSTS OF
25KTS ARE POSSIBLE TONIGHT BEFORE SUBSIDING THURSDAY AS THE SFC
GRADIENT RELAXES.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
ISSUED AT 403 PM CDT WED APR 1 2015

ALTHOUGH THEY MAY NOT BE THE ONLY TWO DAYS OF CONCERN FOR
ELEVATED FIRE DANGER WITHIN THE NEXT WEEK...AT THIS TIME FRIDAY
AND ESPECIALLY SATURDAY AFTERNOONS ARE THE MOST IMMINENT/HIGHEST-
CONFIDENCE ONES...AND BOTH OF THEM ARE MENTIONED IN THE LATEST
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK (HWOGID).

FRIDAY AFTERNOON: COMPARED TO SATURDAY...THIS IS LOOKING LIKE A
MORE MARGINAL FIRE DANGER THREAT THAT ACTUALLY BARELY MEETS NEAR-
CRITICAL THRESHOLDS...LARGELY GIVEN THE EXPECTATION THAT WIND
SPEEDS WILL BE ON A SLOW DECLINE AS THE AFTERNOON WEARS ON. THAT
BEING SAID...THIS LATEST FORECAST DOES YIELD A MULTI-HOUR OVERLAP
OF RELATIVE HUMIDITY (RH) VALUES BETWEEN 20-25 PERCENT IN THE
PRESENCE OF NORTHWEST WIND GUSTS AROUND 20 MPH. ALTHOUGH ANY RAIN
THAT FALLS BETWEEN NOW AND THEN COULD OBVIOUSLY MITIGATE FIRE
DANGER SOMEWHAT...FINE FUELS SUCH AS GRASSES COULD DRY OUT RATHER
QUICKLY BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON.

SATURDAY AFTERNOON: THANKS TO WARMER TEMPERATURES...LOWER RH AND
STRONGER WINDS...THIS COULD EASILY BE TRENDING TOWARD A CRITICAL
FIRE DANGER EVENT THAT MIGHT REQUIRE HEADLINES. OF COURSE...GIVEN
IT IS STILL 3 DAYS AWAY IT'S TOO SOON TO CONSIDER ANY FIRE
WEATHER WATCHES YET. BARRING SIGNIFICANT FORECAST CHANGES
HOWEVER...WE ARE NOW EXPECTING A MULTI-HOUR OVERLAP OF RH VALUES
FALLING INTO THE 15-20 PERCENT RANGE ACROSS MOST OF THE CWA...IN
THE PRESENCE OF SOUTHWEST WIND GUSTING TO AROUND 30 MPH.

CLOSING WITH A QUICK REVIEW OF OUR LOCAL FIRE WEATHER THRESHOLDS:
"CRITICAL" FIRE WEATHER IN OUR CWA IS DEFINED AS THE 3+ HOUR
OVERLAP OF RELATIVE HUMIDITY (RH) OF 20 PERCENT-OR-LOWER AND
SUSTAINED WINDS/GUSTS OF 20+ MPH/25+ MPH. "NEAR-CRITICAL" IS
DEFINED AS THE OVERLAP OF 25 PERCENT-OR-LOWER RH AND SUSTAINED
WINDS GUSTS OF 15+ MPH/20+ MPH (IN THE PRESENCE OF DRY VEGETATION
OF COURSE).
