Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Dodge City KS
232 PM CDT SUN JUN 26 2016

...UPDATE TO LONG TERM...

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday)
Issued at 1242 PM CDT Sun Jun 26 2016

Thunderstorms will be possible across central and eastern portions
of southwest Kansas tonight even as the flow aloft remains fairly
weak across the Western High Plains. Short range models indicate
a frontal boundary just to our south remaining stalled out across
the northern Texas Panhandle eastward into extreme northern
Oklahoma this evening before generally washing out overnight while
a subsequent southeasterly upslope flow returns to western
Kansas. Considering an already weak cap present, ample
moisture/instability will be sufficient enough to support
thunderstorm development early this evening in the vicinity of the
frontal boundary, particularly across south central Kansas. The
weak flow aloft and less than favorable 0-6km shear will limit
severe potential to marginal levels at best with gusty winds the
primary concern. Additionally, PW values in excess of 1.5 inches
will continue to support the potential for periods of heavy
rainfall causing localized flooding. Low temperatures tonight will
drop back down into the 60s(F) tonight with little change to the
air mass across the high plains. Highs Monday will once again push
near 90F.

.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 223 PM CDT Sun Jun 26 2016

Thunderstorm chances will exist nearly each day through the latter
part of the week as upper level ridging builds across the
Intermountain West, setting up a northwesterly flow aloft across
the Western High Plains. As a prevailing southeasterly upslope
flow continues to draw low level moisture into Kansas, a series of
H5 vort maxima will cycle off the ridge axis into the high plains
during the period setting the stage for diurnally driven
thunderstorm development lee of the front range late each day.
The focus for thunderstorms Monday will be in an area of increased
lift in the vicinity of a developing frontal boundary expected to
extend northeast off a surface low in the Colorado Rockies into
western Nebraska. Storms are likely to drift off the higher
terrain into western Kansas Monday evening. Although typcial
damaging wind gusts and some damaging hail may play a role, the
potential for locally heavy rainfall will also exist considering
the amount of available moisture present. This could lead to
localized flooding issues, especially for areas already receiving
rainfall the past few days. This pattern is forecast to persist
through the rest of the week setting up portions of western and
central Kansas for additional periods of appreciable rainfall.

Temperatures are expected to remain fairly seasonal across the
Western High Plains through mid week as southeast upslope flow
persists across western Kansas through much of the time frame with
periods of rainfall and increased cloud cover also contributing
factors. Highs generally in the 80s(F) to near 90F can be expected
through at least Wednesday.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon)
Issued at 1202 PM CDT Sun Jun 26 2016

VFR conditions will prevail at all TAF sites through late tonight.
However, a developing east to southeasterly upslope flow, high
relative humidity, and residual moisture from recent rainfall may
lead to areas of ground fog development toward daybreak Monday
morning. MVFR vsbys will be possible in the vicinity of all TAF
sites generally after 08Z. Light easterly winds early this afternoon
will become more southeasterly 5 to 15kt this evening as surface
high pressure moves from eastern Nebraska southeast across the
Central Plains.
