AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS
204 PM MST MON DEC 14 2015

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 337 AM MST MON DEC 14 2015

FORECAST PROBLEM WILL BE UPCOMING STORM SYSTEM TO AFFECT THE AREA
EARLY IN THIS PERIOD. SATELLITE SHOWING AN AMPLIFIED PATTER FROM
THE PACIFIC THROUGH NORTH AMERICA. AT JET LEVEL...MODELS
INITIALIZED WELL. AT MID LEVELS...MODELS WERE HAVING A LITTLE
TROUBLE WITH EXITING AND INCOMING SYSTEM. FIRST THEY TENDED TO NOT
BE QUITE FAR ENOUGH EAST WITH OUTGOING SYSTEM. THEY ALSO TENDED TO
BE TOO FAST/FAR EAST AND TOO FAR SOUTH/FAST WITH THE NEXT TROUGH.
THE NAM TENDED TO DO BETTER THAN THE REST OF THE OUTPUT. THE NAM
LOOKED TO BE DOING A LITTLE BETTER ON THE SURFACE WIND AND
PRESSURE FIELD. THE GFS...NAM AND SREF WERE DOING A LITTLE BETTER
THAN THE REST OF THE OUTPUT ON THE LOW LEVEL THERMAL FIELD.

TODAY/TONIGHT...STORM SYSTEM THAT BROUGHT A LOT OF
PRECIPITATION... MOSTLY RAIN...TO THE EASTERN PORTION OF OUR AREA
HAS MOVED OFF TO THE EAST. TEMPORARY RIDGING ALOFT AND DRY
CONDITIONS WILL RETURN TO THE AREA THROUGH THE EVENING. FROM
TRENDS AND REPORTS THE EVENING SHIFT SAW/RECEIVED...IT LOOKS LIKE
LITTLE SNOW OCCURRED IN OUR AREA BUT WE WILL NOT KNOW FOR SURE
UNTIL MORNING COOPS START COMING IN AND SATELLITE CAN SEE WHERE IF
ANY SNOW OCCURRED. AS A RESULT DO NOT THINK ANY SNOWCOVER WILL
AFFECT TODAYS HIGH TEMPERATURES. DID RAISE HIGH TEMPERATURES
ESPECIALLY IN THE WESTERN PORTION OF THE AREA.

THEN AFTER MIDNIGHT...THE NEXT SYSTEM NOW DEVELOPING OVER THE
WESTERN PORTION OF THE COUNTRY WILL BEGIN AFFECTING THE AREA. 120
TO 230 METER 700 TO 500 MB HEIGHT FALLS WERE SEEN WITH THIS
SYSTEM. THERE IS A RATHER STRONG PV ANOMALY ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
SYSTEM. SO STRONG LIFT DOES NOT LOOK TO BE A PROBLEM. HOWEVER THE
PROBLEM WILL BE THE AMOUNT OF THIS SYSTEM WILL HAVE TO WORK WITH.

BY LATE IN THE NIGHT PER FORECAST SOUNDINGS THAT THE FAR NORTHWEST
CORNER WILL BE THE ONLY PLACE WHERE A SWITCHOVER TO SNOW WILL OCCUR.
OVER THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA THE MOISTURE WILL BE SHALLOW WITH NO
ICE IN THE COLUMN. SO FOR THE REST OF THE AREA THERE WILL BE
FREEZING DRIZZLE AND FOG.

TUESDAY/TUESDAY NIGHT...MODEL GUIDANCE IS STILL CONSISTENT WHERE
THEY TAKE THE MID LEVEL CIRCULATION AND PLACE THE QPF. MAJORITY OF
THE GUIDANCE SHOWING THE BRUNT OF THE LIFT WITH THIS SYSTEM
ARRIVING IN THE MORNING WITH THE GFS BEING THE OUTLIER AND THE
FASTEST SOLUTION. SO KEPT THE HIGHEST POPS IN THE NORTHWEST CORNER
PER THE PREVIOUS FORECAST WITH DECREASING POPS FURTHER SOUTH.

CONSIDERING THE POSITION OF THE UPPER LOW AND FORECAST SOUNDINGS THE
NORTHWEST QUADRANT WILL SEE A COMPLETE CHANGEOVER TO SNOW AND WILL
HAVE THE MOST SNOW. RATHER STRONG WINDS WILL ACCOMPANY THE SYSTEM
AND SHOULD CAUSE BLOWING SNOW. CONSIDERING THE SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW
POSSIBILITY AND THE POSSIBILITY OF LIGHT FREEZING PRECIPITATION...A
PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA WILL PROBABLY NEED A WINTER WEATHER
ADVISORY. WILL LET THE DAY SHIFT MAKE THE CALL ON THIS SINCE IT
IS A LATE SECOND PERIOD EVENT. HOWEVER WILL HIT THIS HARD IN THE
HWO. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE MUCH COLDER. IF CURRENT TRENDS ARE
CORRECT TEMPERATURES WILL BEGIN FALLING LATE IN THE MORNING.

THE MID LEVEL CIRCULATION WILL BE NORTH OF THE AREA AT THE BEGINNING
OF THE NIGHT PERIOD WITH ONLY A SLIGHT CHANCE OF LIGHT SNOW
LINGERING THROUGH THE EVENING.

WEDNESDAY/WEDNESDAY NIGHT...DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED.
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN COLD WITH MEAN TROUGH STILL OVER THE AREA.
ONLY MADE SLIGHT ADJUSTMENTS TO THE HIGH TEMPERATURES BUT DEPENDING
HOW MUCH SNOW FALLS AND WHERE IT FALLS...FURTHER ADJUSTMENTS WILL BE
NEEDED.

.LONG TERM...(TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 204 PM MST MON DEC 14 2015

GOING INTO TUESDAY NIGHT...INITIAL POSITION OF EXITING UPPER LOW
WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP CHANCES FOR LIGHT -SW OVER NORTHERN
ZONES...TAPERING OFF FROM WEST TO EAST AS SYSTEM LIFTS INTO EASTERN
NEBRASKA BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. LOOKING FOR WRAP-AROUND MOISTURE TO
BRING A FEW MORE TENTHS OF AN INCH ACCUM TO THOSE AFFECTED AREAS.

THE FORECAST AREA WILL SEE TIGHT SURFACE GRADIENT WINDS IN THE 20-30
MPH RANGE...SLACKENING BY NIGHTFALL AS WEAK RIDGING BUILDS OVER THE
AREA. ALSO WITH THIS SYSTEM PASSAGE WILL BRING A RETURN TO A MORE
SEASONABLE AIRMASS WITH HIGHS ONLY IN THE 30S WEDNESDAY...COMING OFF
OF TEENS FOR OVERNIGHT LOWS.

BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT SURFACE RIDGING REMAINS AHEAD OF APPROACHING QUICK
MOVING SHORTWAVE FOR THURSDAY. CLEAR/MCLEAR SKIES OVERNIGHT WILL
AGAIN DROP AREA LOWS INTO THE TEENS. THE PASSAGE OF THIS SHORTWAVE
THURSDAY WILL REINFORCE THE CAA INTO THE AREA. A PSUNNY/MSUNNY MIX
IS EXPECTED WITH A FEW -SW OVER MAINLY EASTERN COLORADO THRU THE
DAY. THE INCREASED CLOUD COVER AND REINFORCED COLD AIR WILL KEEP
HIGHS AROUND 30F CENTRAL AND EAST WHERE LESS CLOUDS EXPECTED...BUT
IN THE MID/UPPER 20S FOR MUCH OF WESTERN ZONES...ESPECIALLY EASTERN
COLORADO. GRADIENT BEHIND THIS SYSTEM NOT AS STRONG AS PREVIOUS
SYSTEM BUT THE AREA COULD SEE WINDS NW IN THE 10-20 MPH RANGE.

THE COMBINATION OF THE TEMPS IN THE TEENS OVERNIGHT W/ EXPECTED
WINDS WILL GIVE THE AREA WIND CHILL/APPARENT TEMP READINGS MAINLY IN
THE SINGLE NUMBERS ABOVE ZERO WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

BY THURSDAY NIGHT RIGHT ON THRU NEXT MONDAY...THE ENTIRE FORECAST
AREA WILL SEE A RETURN TO ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES AS MODELS SHIFT
A BROAD H5 RIDGE FROM THE WEST COAST ON INTO THE ROCKIES AND
EVENTUALLY THE PLAINS REGION. WEAK SHORTWAVE PASSAGE POSSIBLE FOR
NEXT MONDAY. BROAD SUBSIDENCE IS GOING TO GIVE THE AREA MAINLY DRY
WX CONDITIONS FOR THIS TIME PERIOD. FOR DAYTIME HIGHS...THE AREA
WILL SEE FRIDAY GOING INTO THE 40S...WITH 50S OVER THE UPCOMING
WEEKEND AS UPPER RIDGE EXTENDS EAST. INCREASING CLOUD COVER GOING
INTO NEXT MONDAY FROM THE WEST WILL KEEP HIGHS TEMPERED IN THE 40S.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1016 AM MST MON DEC 14 2015

QUIET TAF PERIOD WITHIN THE NEXT 6 HOURS...BUT AN APPROACHING
WINTER STORM WILL BRING A VARIETY OF WEATHER CONDITIONS FOR BOTH
KGLD AND KMCK.

AREAS OF FOG AND FREEZING DRIZZLE WILL MOVE ACROSS BOTH TERMINALS
STARTING AFTER 3Z TONIGHT. FREEZING PRECIPITATION WILL TURN OVER
TO SNOW AT KMCK AFTER 12Z...BUT NOT CONFIDENT AT THIS POINT THAT
PRECIPITATION WILL TURN TO SNOW AT KGLD. AT THIS TIME...LEFT THE
MENTION OF FREEZING PRECIP OUT OF THE TAF ITSELF DUE TO
UNCERTAINTY. THE GFSLAMP GUIDANCE SEEMED TO HAVE THE BEST HANDLE
ON THE CURRENT SITUATION WITH OVERCAST CLOUD COVER OVER KMCK...SO
THE TAF REFLECTS SNOW TIMING AND VISIBILITY TREND FOR KMCK.
