Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wichita KS
1156 PM CDT SUN AUG 7 2016

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday night)
Issued at 300 PM CDT Sun Aug 7 2016

Analysis loop of satellite, observations, and radar shows a ridge of
high pressure nosing down over the area.  Additionally, a quasi-
stationary boundary extended from the northern Texas Panhandle
across northern Oklahoma and into extreme southeast Oklahoma.

The main short term forecast challenge continues to be nocturnal
convection and temperatures.  Clearing has occurred along the front
to the south. CAPEs of close to 4000 J/kg with little shear (in
Oklahoma) would indicate a small chance of storms organizing into
a forward propagating cluster along the front, also supported by
the low level moisture transport.

However, the best chances do remain south of the forecast area.
For tonight, this the cluster could become more widespread as
moisture transport increases along the front, affecting southern
Kansas.

Temperature recovery for Monday hinges on the amount of clearing
that is encountered which is tied to the strength of the MCS.  That
said, if the MCS is weak tonight, then the cold pool from it will
not be able to stave off the front from moving back toward the
north.  If that happens, temperatures could be warmer than forecast.
So, offering a forecast with a bit of middle ground.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday)
Issued at 300 PM CDT Sun Aug 7 2016

Ridge building in the upper levels of the atmosphere does occur
toward midweek.  This will cause temperatures to reach back up into
the middle 90s.

The next cold front moves into the area late in the week.  This
will bring another chance of thunderstorms to the region Friday and
Saturday.  Shear/buoyancy combinations do show some better signs of
favorability with 0-6 km shear of 25 knots.  That said, confidence in
this outcome is rather low right now.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Monday night)
Issued at 1152 PM CDT Sun Aug 7 2016

Numerous showers/thunderstorms will develop over southern Kansas
for tonight. Meanwhile low clouds will affect central Kansas and
spread southward into southern Kansas later tonight. Cigs could
drop into the IFR category late tonight and linger through the mid
morning hours before improving in the afternoon.
