AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TOPEKA KS
617 PM CDT Sun Jun 14 2015

...Update to aviation forecast discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Monday)
Issued at 324 PM CDT SUN JUN 14 2015

Tonight and Monday, A low amplitude trough across west TX into
extreme southwest KS will slowly lift northeast across KS by late
Monday Afternoon.

The first band of stronger ascent ahead of the H5 trough was causing
an areas of showers and thunderstorms to develop across southwest
KS, extending east, to north of ICT, then southeast across southeast
KS and northeast OK. This band of thunderstorms will lift northeast
across the central and eastern counties of the CWA during the late
afternoon and early evening hours. Periods of heavy rainfall may
occur with this area of thunderstorms late this afternoon and
through the evening hours. The PWATS on the TOP SND this morning
were 1.51" and is forecasted to increase to near 2" by 00Z MON (7 PM
this evening).

The mesoscale models show a break developing in the thunderstorms
after 2Z across the CWA. A more organized MCS may develop across the
eastern TX PNHDL into southwest KS. The mesoscale models track this
MCS east across south central KS and western OK through the
overnight hours before it weakens during the early evening hours of
Monday. Thus the CWA may only see scattered thunderstorms overnight.

Monday, a weak front will move southeast across the CWA as the H5
trough axis shifts northeast across central and eastern KS. Several
numerical models show showers and thunderstorms developing along and
behind the weak surface front Monday afternoon due to the ascent in
the lower boundary layer along and north of the surface front, and
ascent through the mid levels of the atmosphere ahead of the H5
trough axis. Once again there could be periods of heavy rainfall,
especially in the eastern counties of the CWA through the afternoon
hours as PWATS are forecasted to be around 2".

Lows Tonight will be in the mid to upper 60s. Highs on Monday will
reach the upper 70s to lower 80s. Some areas that see more
insolation during the afternoon hours may reach the mid 80s.

.LONG TERM...(Monday Night through Sunday)
Issued at 324 PM CDT SUN JUN 14 2015

While several chances for precipitation continue through the
extended forecast, the models are starting to come into slightly
better agreement in which periods have the best probability for
receiving precipitation and which periods should see a break from
the rain.

By Monday night, a fairly zonal mid-level flow will be in place
across the northern half of the conus with an embedded shortwave
exiting east of the area. With this shortwave and associated surface
frontal boundary slowly moving into Missouri Monday night through
Tuesday, expect showers and thunderstorms to persist across the
area, especially across east central Kansas. With PWAT values hovering
near 2 inches, some areas of moderate to heavy rain will be
possible across east central Kansas. The zonal flow across the
northern U.S. looks to persist through mid week with a mid level
low over the southern U.S. expected to lift northward into the
zonal flow Wednesday into Thursday, tracking from Texas into
Missouri. There are model discrepancies with how quickly this wave
will lift northward into Missouri, however most of the
precipitation is looking to track just southeast of the area. As a
result, have trended down to slight and low-end chance PoPs
Tuesday night through Thursday as some weak lift may spawn some
scattered showers and storms. While some modest instability is
expected through mid-week, the 0-6km bulk shear continues to look
weak at 25kts or less so the potential for strong to severe storms
appears to be low at this time. A very weak mid-level ridge looks
to build in behind this merging shortwave that progresses to the
east. This ridge should help to keep any weak embedded waves and
associated precipitation north of the CWA, so have actually gone
with a dry forecast for Thursday night and Friday with only some
slight chance PoPs for Friday night. While this weak ridge is in
place, surface low pressure will be present west of the area,
resulting in southerly surface winds. As a result, expect a
warming trend with highs in the 80s to low 90s from mid to late
week.

Precipitation chances increase over the weekend as the models show a
mid-level trough skimming across the Northern and Central Plains.
However the ECMWF is much deeper with this trough and thus brings
higher chances for showers and thunderstorms to the area Saturday
night through Sunday. In contrast, the GFS shows a much weaker
trough with the bulls-eye of precipitation being just northeast of
the area. Due to these discrepancies, just have chance PoPs in the
forecast at this time. Regardless, this trough should push surface
low pressure and an associated cold front through the area during
the weekend, which should cool temperatures down a bit by late
weekend/early next week.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFs through 00Z Monday Evening)
Issued at 602 PM CDT SUN JUN 14 2015

Upper wave and associated sfc low will drift across the area
tonight. Implications include southeast winds that will gradually
veer with time toward SW after sunrise Monday. Most concentrated
precip/convection should remain closer to the upper circulation
which for now appears to be from MHK west tonight however this is
a low confidence precip fcst and may need to amend overnight based
on evolution of precip. VFR CIGS and VIS conds except for areas of
precip where MVFR conds will occur.
