AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

653 PM CDT TUE MAY 10 2016

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 310 PM CDT TUE MAY 10 2016

THE MAIN CONCERN IN THE SHORT TERM IS THE COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE AND
THUNDERSTORMS THAT ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG AND BEHIND THE
FRONT THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. HIGH-RESOLUTION GUIDANCE HAS
BEEN CONSISTENT IN THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON AND
INTO THE EVENING. AS OF 19Z (2PM) SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE
DEVELOPED SIMILAR TO GUIDANCE. THE FRONT IS ROUGHLY EAST OF BROKEN
BOW SOUTH TO MCCOOK. WITH THIS...EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS TO CONTINUE
TO DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT AS IT MOVES EASTWARD. THIS WILL IMPACT
THE WHOLE AREA. SHEAR IS ADEQUATE...BUT INSTABILITY IS
STRUGGLING BETWEEN 500-1500 J/KG...HOWEVER PLENTIFUL SUNSHINE AND
HIGHER THAN EXPECTED DEW POINTS ARE PROVIDING SLIGHTLY HIGHER
INSTABILITY THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGH. THINK AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES
EASTWARD INSTABILITY MAY INCREASE SLIGHTLY INTO THE EVENING HOURS
THEN OVERNIGHT AHEAD OF THE FRONT WITH ELEVATED MOISTURE TRANSPORT.
DURING THE EVENING THERE WILL BE A CHANCE FOR STRONG TO SEVERE
STORMS. MAINLY ANYTIME AFTER 3PM THROUGH JUST AFTER SUNSET.
SEVERE STORMS COULD PRODUCE DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL UP TO
PING-PONG BALL SIZE.

THE SEVERE THREAT IS EXPECTED TO DIMINISH INTO THE LATE EVENING
AND INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AS THE THREAT TRANSITIONS TO
FLOODING. SHOWERS WITH SCATTERED THUNDER ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME
MORE WIDESPREAD ACROSS THE AREA DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS
IMPACTING MUCH OF SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA AND NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS. A
PORTION OF NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS COULD SEE SOME STRONGER STORMS AS
MOISTURE TRANSPORT INCREASES IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT...BUT
CONFIDENCE IS NOT AS HIGH ON THIS. WIDESPREAD RAINFALL OF 1-2
INCHES IS EXPECTED ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA WITH SOME AREAS
GETTING HIGHER AMOUNTS AND SOME AREAS LESS.

THESE SHOWERS/STORMS ARE CURRENTLY EXPECTED TO PERSIST INTO
WEDNESDAY MORNING ESPECIALLY OVER EASTERN AREAS AS THE UPPER WAVE
ENCROACHES ON THE AREA. PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED TO PUSH
EAST...OUT OF THE AREA BY LATE MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON.

HIGHS WILL BE SLIGHTLY COOLER BEHIND THE COOL FRONT FOR WEDNESDAY.
HIGHS IN THE 60S ARE EXPECTED. THIS IS SLIGHTLY COOLER THAN
SEASONAL NORMS FOR EARLY/MID MAY.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 310 PM CDT TUE MAY 10 2016

ALOFT: ONE LAST SHORTWAVE TROF WILL MOVE THRU THU THEN A PATTERN
CHANGE WILL BE COMPLETE...WITH SVRL DAYS OF NW FLOW. THE CLOSED LOW
CURRENTLY STALLED BETWEEN AK/HI WILL MOVE TO THE W COAST SAT AND
OPEN UP INTO A TROF AND BROADEN OVER THE WRN USA SUN-MON. IT WILL
PROBABLY HAVE MULTIPLE WEAKER EMBEDDED VORT MAXIMA THAT SHOULD BEGIN
TO EJECT ONTO THE PLAINS TUE.

SURFACE: CANADIAN HIGH PRES WILL SLIDE SE ACROSS THE CNTRL PLAINS
THU. A STRONG CANADIAN COLD FRONT WILL PLUNGE S CROSSING THE FCST
AREA FRI FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRES SAT. ANOTHER COOL FRONT WILL SLIP
THRU SAT...PART OF A CLIPPER-TYPE SYSTEM DIVING INTO THE GREAT
LAKES...BUT THE CORE OF THE COOLER AIR WILL MISS TO THE E. A NEW
HIGH BUILDS OVER MUCH OF THE NRN USA MON-TUE.

GIVEN IMPENDING WX...AM FOREGOING A MORE DETAILED DSCN. BOTTOM LINE
IS BELOW NORMAL TEMPS SAT-MON. THE MODELS/POPS SEEM WAYYYY OVERDONE
WITH NO INSTABILITY AND NO FORCING. SO POPS WERE DRASTICALLY CUT IN
COORD WITH NEIGHBORING OFFICES.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z KGRI/KEAR TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 653 PM CDT TUE MAY 10 2016

THE MAIN AVIATION FORECAST CONCERN CONTINUES TO BE THUNDERSTORMS
THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT ALONG WITH A COLD FRONT CHANGING WINDS
AROUND TO THE NORTH. IFR TO MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES COULD
BE PRESENT AS STORMS MOVE OVER THE TERMINALS. WILL AMEND AS
NECESSARY FOR THESE CONDITIONS. RAIN/THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST
OVERNIGHT LINGERING INTO THE MORNING HOURS. NORTH WINDS WILL
PERSIST THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
