Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Goodland KS
155 PM MDT THU AUG 4 2016

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 154 PM MDT Thu Aug 4 2016

The primary short term concern is the increasing possibility of
thunderstorms across the forecast area this afternoon and
evening.

Early this afternoon CU has started to form over the eastern
sections of the forecast area where temperatures are in the upper
80s to upper 90s with dewpoints in the mid to upper 60s as they
struggled to overcome the cap. Thunderstorms have developed over
southeast Colorado and southwest Kansas along and ahead of the
frontal boundary in closer proximity to the weak short wave troughs
aloft that will be lifting into the forecast area this evening.
Expect isolated to scattered storms to develop in the CU field
through the remainder of this afternoon as additional storms move
into the forecast area with the short wave troughs aloft through the
evening and overnight hours. With the Marginal Convective Outlook
area over roughly the SE half of the forecast area, some isolated
strong to severe storms are possible with outflow wind gusts being
the primary hazard concern with the stronger storms that develop
late this afternoon and evening.

Areas of precipitable water between of 1.5 to 2.0 inches move
northward into the forecast area overnight and through the day on
Friday with a couple of QPF maxima of generally between 0.5 and 1.0
inch showing up over the southeast and northwest sections of the
forecast area as storms move through those areas.  While not
extreme, they are noteworthy as there could be isolated storms with
moderate to heavy rainfall.

Expect scattered showers with isolated thunderstorms to continue
into Friday morning and through the day on Friday as weak waves
continue to stream across the forecast area.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday)
Issued at 130 PM MDT Thu Aug 4 2016

Friday night and Saturday...Persistent southwest flow aloft will
maintain relatively high moisture values as we head into the
weekend. Showers and embedded thunderstorms will prevail on Saturday
and into the day on Sunday before PoPs begin to diminish later in
the evening and into the overnight hours. Rainfall totals through
Sunday will range from 0.75 inch to 1.5 inches as much of the
guidance has backed off a bit on total precipitation. Temperatures
during this time period will be well below average with highs only
reaching the 70s to near 80 degrees on Saturday with low to middle
80s expected on Sunday.

Things will dry out on Monday as the flow transitions more westerly
and cuts off the monsoonal flow out of the southwest. Daytime high
temperatures will return to a more seasonal upper 80s to lower 90s
for Monday through Wednesday. Flow will begin to shift back
southwesterly as we head into the middle to end of next week and
possibly bring back increasing moisture values and associated higher
PoPs. Model agreement is decent at this range; however, timing will
likely change and I decided to leave PoPs as is for now.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon)
Issued at 1150 AM MDT Thu Aug 4 2016

VFR conditions will prevail through 06Z with sunny skies turning
partly cloudy this afternoon as thunderstorms begin to develop
along a cold front draped across the central high plains region
between 18Z-21z. Isolated thunderstorms are expected to begin
moving into the MCK and GLD TAF areas around 00Z and become
scattered between 03Z-06Z. VFR with intermittent MVFR conditions
are expected with scattered to numerous showers and isolated
thunderstorms continuing after 06Z. The coverage of showers and
thunderstorms will diminish between 12Z-18Z with a greater
likelihood of MVFR conditions at both sites due to lower ceilings.
