Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Goodland KS
159 PM MDT WED AUG 10 2016

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 159 PM MDT Wed Aug 10 2016

As of 230 pm CDT, 130 pm MDT, skies across the Tri-State Region were
mostly clear with the exception of some daytime cumulus developing
over eastern Colorado. Temperatures have climbed into the low to mid
90s so far today. Winds are south at 10 to 20 mph with some gusts as
high as 25 mph. At the surface, a low pressure is centered over
southeast Wyoming. The low pressure extends south across eastern
Colorado into northeastern New Mexico. Aloft, a shortwave trough is
moving northeast across northern Colorado into western Nebraska.
Additional weak perturbations are moving northeast toward the Tri-
State region from southern Colorado.

For this afternoon through tonight, a few thunderstorms are possible
as weak disturbances pass over the High Plains. Overall, am
anticipating a few storms to develop over central Colorado,
spreading northeast. Most of the activity looks to remain west and
north of the Tri-State Region tonight. However, a few storms are
certainly possible over northeast Colorado and southwest Nebraska.
Current instability parameters this afternoon suggest SBCape of
2000+ J/kg over NW Kansas, diminishing as you head west, lapse rates
of 8+ C/km, and DCAPE near 1500 J/kg. These parameters would
indicate storms may be strong, perhaps severe. The lack of wind
shear is somewhat concerning so unsure how organized/persistent any
storms would be.

On Thursday, a cold front is expected to move south across the High
Plains. By Noon MDT, this front is currently forecast to be roughly
along a line from McCook, NE to Goodland, KS to Kit Carson, CO. The
cold front is expected to serve as a focus for tomorrow's
thunderstorm development. This is especially highlighted by numerous
members of forecast guidance (NAM, WFR-ARW, WRF-NMM, SREF, GFS,
Canadian Model). Severe weather parameters indicate some storms may
be strong to severe. Better jet dynamics are forecast with a right
entrance region over the High Plains. Wind shear increases a little
as well so storms should be more organized. A quick moving squall
line seems most probable. Latest PWAT forecasts predict values
approaching 1.70 inches. In the end, storms that develop tomorrow
should be capable of large hail, damaging winds and torrential
downpours. Storms may progress quickly if a cold pool is able to
develop so flash flooding may not be too much of a concern.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 159 PM MDT Wed Aug 10 2016

To begin the extended period, the CWA is being impacted by a trough
that is moving through the area. For Thursday night, a cold front
will be passing through the region in the late afternoon or will
pass through in the early evening. In addition to the cold front, a
700 mb shortwave will be pushing through the region as will. This
will help enhance storm potential. The main source of moisture will
be pulled up from the desert southwest.

Friday will continue to have the upper level trough moving through
the region. Temperatures are expected to be in the 80s due to the
passage of the cold front from Thursday. Another shortwave will move
through the region beginning in the afternoon. This will help with
continued precipitation potential.

Saturday is looking drier than the previous two days due to the
trough pushing east out of the region and a ridge moving in behind
it. As well as the frontal boundary keeping most of the
precipitation to the south of the CWA. There are slight chances for
PoPs throughout the day over portions of the region but nothing
strong is expected.

Sunday through Wednesday are expected to be dry. The ridge moves
over the region cutting off any moisture from the southwestern
states from moving up into the area. Temperatures will slowly
increase through the beginning of next week, reaching the upper
80s to low 90s by Wednesday.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Thursday afternoon)
Issued at 1135 AM MDT Wed Aug 10 2016

VFR conditions anticipated over the next 24 hours. A few storms
should develop over Colorado this afternoon, spreading east this
evening. As of this TAF issuance, thinking storms remain west of
TAF sites. A pre-frontal trough moves south across the High
Plains tonight, leading to veering surface winds. Tomorrow, a
disturbance is expected to move through, bringing another chance
for storms along the trough and an incoming cold front. Storms
are expected to develop around/after 18z near both TAF sites.
Thunderstorms may be input by later TAF forecasts for Thursday
afternoon.
