Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Omaha/Valley NE
620 PM CDT WED MAY 25 2016

.SHORT TERM...(tonight through Saturday)
Issued at 250 PM CDT Wed May 25 2016

Potential for periods of thunderstorms will extend through the
short term portion of the forecast. Good moisture and instability
is expected to remain across the region during this time frame as
a pair of upper troughs kick out a series of short waves across the
plains region.

Surface map at 19z showed an area of low pressure over northeast
South Dakota with a weak trough extending from the low into
northwest Nebraska. A second low was over south central Kansas
with a warm front extending into northeast Kansas and a dry line
stretching south into north central Texas. These two surface
features are expected to be the primary focus for thunderstorm
development into Thursday.

A few storms had already developed over far western Nebraska and
western South Dakota early this afternoon with short range models
showing them spreading east ahead of the Dakota surface trough
into the evening as an upper wave tracks toward the upper midwest.
Main focus then shifts to the south on Thursday and Thursday night
with Kansas system as warm front lifts north to vicinity of
southern Nebraska border by late afternoon. This boundary
continues to lift into eastern Nebraska during the evening
becoming stationary in a northeast to southwest orientation by
late evening into early Friday. Combination of stalled boundary
and high PW will allow strong chance of heavy rain event across
the area Thursday night, likely preceeded by severe weather event
late Thursday afternoon and evening. No headlines at this time but
will mention in HWO and blast message to increase awareness of the
potential.

Chance of storms will continue for Friday into Saturday as the
main upper trough moves across the lower Missouri valley.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 250 PM CDT Wed May 25 2016

Upper pattern flattens for a time behind the lower Missouri valley
trough Saturday night into Sunday but begins to amplify again
Sunday night into Monday. This will allow another extended period
of showers and thunderstorms to setup across the region through
Wednesday.

&&

.AVIATION...(00Z TAFS for KOMA...KLNK...KOFK through 00Z Friday)
Issued at 610 PM CDT Wed May 25 2016

A strato-cu deck which developed over southeast and east-central
Nebraska this afternoon is in the process of mixing out with VFR
ceilings at KOMA and KLNK likely scattering out this evening.
Thunderstorms currently developing over central Nebraska will
approach KOFK around 03 to 04z. Confidence in KOFK being affected
remains low, so a TEMPO group will not be included at this
juncture. Otherwise, expect winds to gradually switch to easterly
or southeasterly on Thursday as a warm front develops across the
area. The chance of thunderstorms will increase after 18z
Thursday.
