Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Goodland KS
813 PM MDT SUN JUN 12 2016

.UPDATE...
Issued at 800 PM MDT Sun Jun 12 2016

Just completed an update. Understandably models, even the high
resolution/convective allowing models, are having a hard time
resolving the chaos that is going on at this time. Western portion
of the area is seeing its second round of storms with other
activity still upstream. Very hard to get a good trend on the
coverage and timing of the storms.

Rap/ruc seem to be doing fine at this time. In general models are
showing the main thunderstorms will be in the southern half of the
area this evening. Then looks like a brief break and then roughly
centered around 09z another round of storms erupts. The current
forecast captures this especially after midnight and the
adjustments made were before midnight. Some impressive rates have
been occurring due to the very moist air mass and slow movement.
Have not had any extreme amounts yet but considering the general
trend of the models, kept the Flash Flood Watch going.

Cold pool from ongoing thunderstorms has dropped temperatures to
near the forecast lows in the western portion. So dropped the
temperatures there. Also updated the chaotic wind field with the
best performing high resolution guidance.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This afternoon through Monday)
Issued at 155 PM MDT Sun Jun 12 2016

Surface analysis indicates Cold front approximate from northern
Colorado across western Nebraska with prefrontal trough extending
south across eastern Colorado. Radar shows slow moving/back
building thunderstorms ahead of main front in our northwest CWA,
while satellite shows CU field developing into NW Kansas.

This afternoon-tonight: Convection already underway is currently
matching trends in RAP/HRRR along with high resolution convective
allowing models (ARW/NMM). RAP analysis indicated CAP already
weakening across much of our CWA with ML CIN approaching zero.
Main axis of forcing is near frontal zone, and trend should be
towards convection filling in across the west and spreading
eastward. Initially convective environment (with high DCAPE and
10kft dry adiabatic layer) will support elevated microburst
potential, and increasing CAPE associated with Tds in the 60s will
support a few stronger updrafts. Shear is on the weaker end, so
stronger storms will tend to be more pulsy in nature. Front will
transition south, aided by possible cold pool with additional
activity developing with easterly flow north of front and moderate
elevated instability through the night.

Mean flow 5-15kt will support slow storm motions will tend to be
on the slower side. There is a anomalously moist air mass in
place with PWATs already in excess of 1.5" according to RAP
analysis. Strong moist inflow towards the frontal zone will lead
to training and backbuilding of thunderstorms. With thunderstorm
activity expected to increase in coverage and slowly spread across
the region the threat for flooding warranted Flash Flood Watch
issuance through tonight.

Monday: Majority of guidance supports eastward trend in nighttime
convective activity Monday morning with a possible lull through
midday. Stronger large scale forcing associated with approaching
upper level trough will support redevelopment Monday afternoon,
with lull serving to prime atmosphere with increasing
instability through the day. As upper low moves east stalled front
will lift north with increasing veering supporting stronger shear
and potential super cell development. All modes of severe weather
will be possible Monday afternoon, with significant hail and some
tornadoes possible.

.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 250 PM MDT Sun Jun 12 2016

Monday night...ongoing strong to severe thunderstorms expected
through midnight with locally heavy rainfall and possible flash
flooding generally along and north of interstate 70 where better
moisture and jet enhancement expected. Precipitable water values 1.5
to locally 2.0 inches. After midnight drier air aloft starts to move
in from the southwest bringing a decrease in precipitation potential
from southwest to northeast. Low temperatures in the mid to upper
50s in far eastern Colorado with low to mid 60s elsewhere.

Tuesday-Wednesday...may see some cumulus clouds around the area
Tuesday afternoon but with a lack of mid level moisture and weak
instability doubtful that thunderstorms can develop. Should one do
so it would be out in the Norton and Hill City areas. For Tuesday
night a few mid level clouds may move northeast across the area
otherwise clear with no precipitation expected. For Wednesday broad
upper ridge develops with much warmer/hotter temperatures expected.

High temperatures Tuesday in the mid 80s to low 90s. Low
temperatures Tuesday night in the low to mid 50s for far eastern
Colorado, mid 50s to low 60s elsewhere.

High temperatures Wednesday warm about 7F to 9F at 850mb. This would
support mid 90s to around 105. GFS 2m temps and mex guidance closest
to these values and have trended toward them with advertised highs
int he mid 90s to around 101. One item that may impact temperatures
is the expected rainfall. Areas that receive quite a bit of rain may
not be able to reach full mixing potential due to the wet ground
thus be not as hot as otherwise would be expected.

Wednesday night-Friday...large upper ridge extends from northern
Mexico northeast through Kansas into parts of Canada with 850mb
temperatures supporting high temperatures in the mid 90s to around
105 once again. This is close to mex guidance as well as GFS/ECMWF
850mb temps. Have nudged readings up to account for this. Low
temperatures in the mid 50s west to mid/upper 60s east. No
precipitation expected. For Friday will be hot once again with mid
90s to low 100s likely.

Friday night-Sunday...little change in the overall pattern with
upper high pressure center over New Mexico with ridge axis extending
northeast through the northern Great Lakes. Upper trough located
over the pacific northwest. Little if any cloudiness and no
precipitation expected. After morning lows in the upper 50s to
mid 50s afternoon temperatures should safely reach the mid to
upper 90s if not higher based on 850mb temperatures Saturday. For
Sunday a little less hot with low to mid 90s.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday evening)
Issued at 545 PM MDT Sun Jun 12 2016

Currently thunderstorms with heavy rain and gusty winds affecting
the Kgld site with storms still to the west of Kmck. For Kgld...
expect the thunderstorms to continue and increase in coverage
through the evening and overnight hours, although high resolution
guidance differs on this. Through the nighttime hours expect Mvfr
conditions to prevail with the occasional improvement to Vfr.
However confidence is low after this evening to the mesoscale
influences in play. From around 13z into the early evening hours,
there should be a break before another round of thunderstorms is
expected. Am confident there will be thunderstorms in the area
however since it is not until late in the period, I just put in a
vcts mention.

For Kmck...again some uncertainty involved hear with forecast
having a high percentage of rain but nothing very close to the
site with the high resolution not very optimistic. Started out
with vcts then with prevailing thunderstorms through most of the
rest of the night. However during this time kept conditions at
Vfr. Again expect a break from the morning hours until mid
afternoon. As with Kgld chose to handle with a vcts at this time.
