Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Goodland KS
550 PM MDT TUE JUN 28 2016

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday)
Issued at 243 PM MDT Tue Jun 28 2016

Thunderstorm chances and their severity continue to be the main
issues. Currently not much going on. Some isolated thunderstorms
have tried to develop this afternoon in response to some leftover
outflow boundaries. Due to a lack of lift aloft at this time, they
have struggled to maintain themselves. Have kept a slight chance
in the appropriate areas to account for this.

With a rather strong shortwave trough in northwest flow aloft, the
next cluster of storms are expected to move in from the north and
northwest during the night. However once again the high
resolution/convective allowing models differ on timing and
location of best chances. Considering the lack of cumulus in close
proximity upstream of our area, am liking the later arrival time
which is more in line with what the Nam says. Am thinking that mid
to late evening is the main arrival time. This complex looks to
bring a substantial amount of rainfall to the northeast portion
where Pwats of 1.5 to 2 inches will be in place.

With stronger flow aloft and continued good directional shear,
there looks to be good and better chance, than last night, that
these storms will become severe large hail and damaging winds the
main threats.

Going by the slower arrival time, there looks to be some lingering
thunderstorms in the morning. Depending on how tonights storms
evolves, fog could develop once again to a moist and upslope air
mass. Will let the evening and overnight shifts take a look at
this. Not sure how much convection will be around tomorrow. Am
thinking that the air mass will take most of the day to recover
but still do have northwest aloft with embedded shortwaves around.
At this time just have low chance pops in the east in the
afternoon, but am not too certain about it.

Temperatures should be cooler and potentially could be cooler if
clouds and upslope are more than expected.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 234 PM MDT Tue Jun 28 2016

For this extended forecast period, an active weather pattern should
continue into this weekend. This pattern consists of an upper level
trough to the east and a high pressure ridge to the west, resulting
in the common "northwest flow" setup. By Sunday, this pattern begins
to weaken as the upper trough slides east and the high pressure
ridge intensifies. This should allow the region to dry out some
Sunday and Monday. However, the ridge weakens once again as
disturbances moving east on the northern periphery of the high break
it down. Shortwave troughs should begin moving close enough to
initiate storms once again by next Tuesday.

Beginning with tomorrow night, thunderstorm chances increase once
again as a shortwave trough pushes in from the west. Flow should be
more from the west so any afternoon convection that develops along
the Rockies should have a chance to make it into the Tri-State
region. Also, decided to include a chance for storms further east as
there may be a remnant outflow boundary along and east of highway
83. These storms would primarily occur in the afternoon/early
evening hours before diminishing. An unstable and sheared
atmosphere, characterized by SBCAPE in excess of 1500 J/KG, 850-500
mb lapse rates at 8+ C/km, and 0-6 KM Bulk Shear of 35-45 kts,
indicate that these storms may be severe depending on the timing.
The main threats would be damaging winds and large hail. Heavy
downpours can also be expected but am unsure of the flash flooding
potential due to potential cold pool formation and thus faster storm
movement.

A cold front should push south on Thursday. As a result, am
anticipating reduced atmospheric instability which could hinder the
chances for severe thunderstorms. Moisture flow from the east should
lead to an increasing in precipitable water content. Finally,
another shortwave trough is expected to slide through. All of this
means that chances for thunderstorms will persist from Thursday
afternoon through at least Friday night, particularly closer to the
front south of Interstate 70. There should still be enough
instability and shear for some severe thunderstorms capable of large
hail and damaging winds each day. The primary threat may shift from
severe weather to flooding though as repeated rounds of rainfall and
a rich, moist airmass may provide a situation conducive to flash
flooding.

After a brief dry period Sunday and Monday, a return to a more
active weather pattern is possible. However, forecast guidance is
not in great agreement, particularly with the placement of the
next developing high pressure ridge.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening)
Issued at 543 PM MDT Tue Jun 28 2016

VFR conditions forecast for the 0z TAFs. Main impact for these
TAFs will be timing the arrival of the storms this evening for the
sites. Am expecting KMCK to be impacted first by the storms
followed shortly after by KGLD. Did not place a tempo group in for
KGLD due to low confidence in storm coverage this far west. Better
chances for storm activity are to the east. Large to very large
hail and wind gusts of 60 MPH or higher are expected with the
storms late this evening and overnight. As the storm complex moves
south of the TAF sites its intensity will begin to weaken. KGLD
may have a brief period of MVFR ceilings around 12z behind the
storm complex.
