Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service North Platte NE
330 PM CDT MON AUG 1 2016

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 330 PM CDT Mon Aug 1 2016

Showers and thunderstorms are already developing across central
Nebraska. These showers are expected to continue developing north
and south and strengthen in intensity as the afternoon progresses.
The showers will be associated with a weak cold front draped across
central Nebraska. As this front pushes eastward, the shower activity
will also progress to the east. This will be a slow process allowing
plenty of time for thunderstorms to develop across the southeast
portion of the forecast area where instability is higher. While
severe potential is expected to be low, an isolated stronger storm
could be possible especially across our extreme southeast counties
(south of an Oneill to North Platte line). Large hail and strong
winds would be the main threat with these storms. Clouds and rain
across the southeast will keep overnight lows in the upper 60s, the
exception being across Sheridan and western Cherry counties where
clouds will clear out and lows could drop into the low 60s.

Showers and storms will push south and east of the area by 10 to 12Z
Tuesday. Surface high pressure then builds southward into Nebraska,
resulting in drier conditions across the region through the
remainder of Tuesday. Highs rebound into the upper 80s for most
locations. Highs along and south of the I-80 corridor will be
slightly warmer in the low 90s.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
Issued at 330 PM CDT Mon Aug 1 2016

Monsoonal moisture will be in place across the Desert Southwest.
This moisture, along with Gulf moisture will bring increasing
chances for showers and thunderstorms, especially by this weekend.

Dry conditions are forecast Tuesday night through Wednesday
morning. Kept a slight chance across the far northwest Wednesday
afternoon near a prefrontal trough. Then, Wednesday night, a cold
front will move through most of the forecast area. This will bring
at least a slight chance for all except the southeastern areas,
which will remain ahead of the cold front.

On Thursday, kept at least a slight chance for showers and
thunderstorms behind the cold front. Chance pops across the south
Thursday night as the front begins to stall out across northern
Kansas. Monsoonal moisture, along with weak disturbances will
rotate clockwise around the upper ridge center across Texas into
the mid Mississippi Valley.

This type of synoptic pattern will persist through the weekend,
with the best chances for storms, into the likely category,
arriving Friday night.

Temperatures will reach the mid 90s Wednesday, the mid 80s
Thursday, to 75-80 degrees for both Friday and Saturday. On Sunday
and Monday, a warmup to the low and mid 80s, as the cooler
temperatures move east into the Great Lakes Region.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 113 PM CDT Mon Aug 1 2016

Light showers are starting to move in across central Nebraska. These
showers will continue to develop northeast and southwest across the
state through the remainder of the afternoon. The showers will
intensify as the evening progresses with a few isolated
thunderstorms possible as well. Both KVTN and KLBF are expected to
be briefly impacted by the showers through midnight. VFR conditions
return to KLBF after midnight. Light fog is expected to develop
across KVTN behind the showers and will lift around 12Z. VFR
conditions will then return to KVTN after 12Z.
