AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTH PLATTE NE
647 PM CDT SUN MAY 8 2016

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 313 PM CDT SUN MAY 8 2016

SOME CLEARING ACROSS SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA HAS
OCCURRED THIS AFTERNOON AND DEW POINTS REMAIN IN THE LOW TO MID 50S.
HOWEVER...THE WARM FRONT IS ANALYZED WELL TO OUR SOUTH...WHICH WILL
TAKE THE FOCUS OF LATE AFTERNOON CONVECTION AWAY FROM WESTERN AND
CENTRAL NEBRASKA TO AREAS OF KANSAS AND SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA EAST OF
THE DRY LINE AND ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT. HOWEVER...A
SECONDARY FOCUS FOR CONVECTION LIES WITH ANOTHER SHORT WAVE ROTATING
AROUND THE BASE OF THE UPPER LOW IN SOUTHEASTERN COLORADO. SOME
STORMS ARE ALREADY BEGINNING TO FIRE WITH THIS FEATURE AND THESE ARE
THE STORMS THAT ARE EXPECTED TO ROTATE NORTHEAST INTO OUR FORECAST
AREA LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. THEY WILL BE ENTERING A
RECEPITIVE ENVORONMENT AND MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES LOOK TO REMAIN
FAILRY STEEP AND THE SUNSHINE DURING THE DAY WILL ASSIST LOWER AND
MID LEVEL INSTABILITY. CAPE AND SHEAR IN THE HAIL GROWTH ZONE LOOKS
FAVORABLE FOR HAIL...ESPECIALLY AFTER 22Z SO ANY STORMS THAT ARE
ALLOWED TO TAKE OFF LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING COULD
CONCEVIABLY PRODUCE SOME LARGE HAIL.

HEADING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...RAIN WILL BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD
AS STORMS CONGEAL INTO CLUSTERS ONCE THE SHORTWAVE LIFTS INTO
CENTRAL NEBRASKA. WHILE A NON-ZERO CHANCE OF RAIN EXISTS ACROSS THE
ENTIRE FORECAST AREA...THE BEST CHANCE FOR MEASURABLE AND AT TIMES
HEAVY RAIN WILL BE EAST OF A LINE FROM NORTH PLATTE TO VALENTINE.

THE WAVE WILL EVENTUALLY CLOSE OFF INTO AN UPPER LOW BY MONDAY
AFTERNOON OVER SOUTH DAKOTA...SLOWING THE PROGRESSION OF ANY SHOWERS
TRYING TO MOVE OUT OF THE AREA FROM OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY NORTH OF
THE INTERSTATE. THE UPPER LOW WILL MOVE LITTLE THROUGH THE DAY INTO
MONDAY NIGHT AS ANOTHER UPPER LOW IN WYOMING FUJIWHARAS ITS WAY
AROUND THE BASE OF THE NORTH DAKOTA LOW DURING THE DAY ON MONDAY.
THIS SHOULD KEEP OUR HEIGHTS LOW AND OUR WEATHER SHOWERY AND
UNSETTLED FOR MUCH OF THE DAY.

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 313 PM CDT SUN MAY 8 2016

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...THE UPPER LOW ACROSS THE ROCKIES
MOVES SLOWLY EAST TOWARD NRN NEB TONIGHT AND MONDAY. A SECOND
UPPER LOW ACROSS SRN ALBERTA WILL MOVE INTO THE NRN HIGH PLAINS
AND ABSORB THE FIRST DISTURBANCE BY TUESDAY MORNING. THE NEW UPPER
LOW WILL DRIFT THROUGH THE DAKOTAS TUESDAY AND PULL COLD AIR INTO
THE FCST AREA WEDNESDAY. A STRONG PUSH OF COLD AIR TUESDAY NIGHT
IS EXPECTED TO PRODUCE SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY ACROSS SWRN AND NCNTL NEB. OTHERWISE RAIN
CHANCES ARE ISOLATED TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY AND DIURNALLY DRIVEN.

TEMPERATURES TUESDAY RISE INTO THE 60S TO NEAR 70 WITH WEAK WARMING.
HIGHS WEDNESDAY REMAIN IN THE UPPER 50S TO MID 60S. COLD AIR ALOFT
MAY STEEPEN LAPSE RATES FOR AFTN SHOWERS ACROSS NRN NEB. FROST IS
POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY MORNING ACROSS THE WRN SANDHILLS AND ERN
PANHANDLE WITH LOWS IN THE MID 30S. OTHERWISE 40S ARE EXPECTED
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY MORNING.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...THE UPPER LOW ACROSS THE DAKOTAS
WILL PULL CANADIAN AIR INTO THE FCST AREA FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.
HEIGHTS ALOFT INDICATE NORTHWEST FLOW BUT THE AIR APPEARS TO BE TOO
COOL FOR TSTM DEVELOPMENT...K INDICES ARE LESS THAN 30C. THE GFS20
AND ECM ARE SIGNALING MID LEVEL FRONTOGENESIS SUPPORTING A CHANCE
OF SHOWERS SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. THERE IS A CHANCE OF SHOWERS WITH
THE REINFORCING COLD FRONT FRIDAY NIGHT.

TEMPERATURES REMAIN COOL WITH HIGHS MOSTLY IN THE 50S AND 60S. LOWS
FALL INTO THE 30S AND 40S WITH FROST POSSIBLE THURSDAY MORNING
ACROSS WRN NEB.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z MONDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 647 PM CDT SUN MAY 8 2016

THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THE MAIN AVIATION CONCERN THIS EVENING.
WHILE MOST OF THE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE EAST OF THE KLBF AND KVTN
TERMINALS...A FEW THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE. AFTER
