&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 343 PM CDT SAT AUG 8 2015

THIS EVENING:
WITH S-SE 15-25 MPH WINDS CONTINUING TO INDUCE WARM ADVECTION FROM
NORTHERN OK...HIGHS AROUND 100 ARE STILL LIKELY FOR NEARLY ALL OF
SOUTH-CENTRAL KS WITH SOUTHEAST KS LIKELY TO HIT THE MID & UPPER
90S. THE VALID HEAT ADVISORY PERIOD UNTIL 8 PM SHOULD SUFFICE.

TONIGHT:
COLD FRONT EXTENDING FROM NORTH-CENTRAL NEBRASKA THROUGH NORTHWEST
KS TO SOUTHEAST CO WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH SE THIS EVENING INTO A
MARKEDLY DESTABILIZING AIRMASS COVERING NORTHWEST & WEST-CENTRAL
KS. JUXTAPOSED WITH 35-40KT 6KM BULK SHEAR...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
ARE CERTAINLY IN THE OFFING & SHOULD VENTURE INTO AREAS W OF I-135
LATE TONIGHT.

SUNDAY:
HIGHLIGHT:
A HEAT ADVISORY IS BEING ISSUED FOR MOST OK-BORDERING COUNTIES
(THE EXCEPTION IS HARPER COUNTY) AS WELL AS FOR WILSON & NEOSHO
COUNTIES IN SOUTHEAST KS. THE AFORE-MENTIONED S/SE MOVING COLD
FRONT CONTINUES TO BE "STAR OF THE SHOW" IN ALL RESPECTS. AS IT
APPROACHES SOUTHERN KS...IT'LL ENCOUNTER A VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS
ENTRENCHED ACROSS ALL OF SOUTH-CENTRAL & MUCH OF SOUTHEAST KS SUN
AFTERNOON. WITH PROJECTED MLCAPES REACHING 3000-3500 J/KG COUPLED
WITH 6-KM BULK SHEAR FROM 30 TO 35 KTS...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE

BEING ISSUED FOR NEARLY ALL OK-BORDERING COUNTIES AS WELL AS FOR

2ND FRONT PUSHING SE ACROSS KS ON MON THUNDERSTORMS WOULD LIKEWISE
GET FORCED S OF KICT COUNTRY MON EVENING.

TUE & TUE NIGHT:
HIGH PRESSURE SPREADING SE ACROSS NEBRASKA & KS WILL ADVECT COOLER
& DRIER AIR ACROSS THE REGION TO PRODUCE NICE WEATHER FOR ALL
AREAS.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 343 PM CDT SAT AUG 8 2015

WITH A DEEP(!) UPPER-DECK TROF DIGGING FROM QUEBEC TO THE CENTRAL

WELL TO THE NE & E OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD...MORE SPECIFICALLY FROM
