AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Topeka KS
642 AM CDT WED JUL 13 2016

...Update to aviation forecast discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 301 AM CDT WED JUL 13 2016

A complex of storms was located across northeast CO and northwest
KS early this morning. This complex of thunderstorms will begin to
forward propagate to the east and southeast along a deeper moisture
and instability axis that extends from south central KS and northwest
OK, northwest into northeast CO. If this complex of storms becomes
severe with damaging wind gusts as it moves southeast across west
central KS it may move into the southwest and southern counties of
the CWA after 12Z with the potential for severe wind gusts and heavy
rainfall generally south of I-70. The 00Z Nam model keeps the
complex southwest and south of the CWA during the morning hours. The
WRF solutions move the complex of storms across the southwest
counties after 12Z, then across the southern counties of the CWA
through the mid and late morning hours. The GFS moves the complex
due east across southern NE which clips the northern counties of the
CWA. The experimental HRRR moves the complex of storms east along
and just south of I-70 from 12Z through 17Z. The best chance for
strong to severe winds from this complex of thunderstorms will be
along and south of the nearly stationary outflow boundary which
extends along I-35 from south of KC, west-southwest to north of
Emporia, then due west. south of Salina, to north of Great Bend. If
this boundary drifts northward then there may be more of chance for
stronger winds up to I-70. Also, during the mid morning hours across
east central KS the boundary layer may mix deep enough with steep
lapse rates from 850mb to the surface for stronger winds aloft to be
entrained to the surface, if the complex of storms maintains it
intensity as it shifts east-southeast across the southern counties
of the CWA.

Wednesday afternoon through Tonight, the complex of storms will move
east-southeast across western MO. The outflow boundary may push
south of the CWA but should wash out across southeast KS. A weak
front will push southeast across the CWA and thunderstorms may
redevelop along and south of the weak surface front. The WRF and
experimental HRRR solutions show the surface outflow boundary
maintaining itself through the afternoon hours along and southeast
of I-35 where a line of storms or a complex of storms will develop
and push southeast of the CWA during the early to mid evening hours.
The NAM and GFS develop thunderstorms farther north across northeast
KS along the front during the afternoon hours, then forms a complex
of thunderstorms that tracks southward across east central KS during
the evening hours. At this time, I'm leaning more towards the meso
scale models. Any complex of thunderstorms may produce severe wind
gusts and heavy rainfall. Initial isolated to scattered
thunderstorm development may produce large hail. The NAM model
increases MLCAPE to over 5,000 J/KG this afternoon, which may be a
bit over done but if we see insolation this afternoon with dewpoints
in the mid 70s, we could see MLCAPES in the 3,000 to 4,000 J/KG
range. It will depends on where the storms develop to which areas
will have the best chances for severe thunderstorms during the
afternoon and evening hours.

Highs Today will depend on the track and timing of the mid and late
morning thunderstorm complex and if the cloud cover will scatter out
during the afternoon hours. If we see insolation this afternoon most
areas could see lower to mid 90s. If the thunderstorm complex moves
across the southern counties a few hours slower then east central KS
may keep cloud cover through the afternoon hours and highs may only
reach the mid and upper 80s. I think we will see break in the cloud
cover later this afternoon and have went with highs in the lower 90s
across the eastern and northern counties with mid 90s across the
southeast counties of the CWA.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday)
Issued at 301 AM CDT WED JUL 13 2016

Tomorrow the lingering frontal boundary should be located somewhere
in east central or southeast KS. The consensus is that it may be
located just south of the forecast area especially with storm
outflows pushing southward and reinforcing the boundary near the
OK/KS state line. The 12 km NAM is aggressive with developing an MCS
within the upslope flow over the high plains, and moving that MCS
along this boundary during the day Thursday. The WRF solutions
develop diurnal storms along the boundary in southeast KS. The other
larger scale models do not support this MC, and instead show
isolated to scattered storms developing late afternoon due to peak
heating and low level convergence similar to the WRF. There is a
chance this activity remains further south depending on the boundary
location. Given the uncertainty with morning showers and storms it
is difficult to determine if the environment will become favorable
for strong to severe storms Thursday afternoon. Instability if
realized should support a damaging wind threat and possibly hail. An
MCS during the afternoon would pose a wind threat as well.

A shortwave may also move across KS in the late evening into the
overnight and possibly support an MCS that could clip the far
southern forecast area. The track of this wave keeps gradually
shifting southward. Northwest flow aloft continues with subtle waves
moving over the region. Return flow will develop across the area
bringing moisture back northward. This pattern will favor possible
MCSs especially during the overnight with the strengthening of the
low level jet. This scenario may occur Friday night, but is too far
out to nail down exact timing and location. Mid level ridge begins
to build over KS, which pushes the storm track further north. One
more cold front may try to reach northern KS Sunday night and
Monday, but may only bring a small chances for storms to the area.
Beyond that looks rather dry and hot as the ridge centers overhead
into late week.

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday Morning)
Issued at 633 AM CDT WED JUL 13 2016

A complex of thunderstorms across portions of central KS will
continue moving east down the I-70 corridor throughout the
morning hours. Introduce VCTS at 13Z and TSRA at 14Z for the
Manhattan terminal. TSRA activity is expected to arrive at the
Topeka terminals near 15Z with VCTS possible after 14Z. Winds are
expected to shift to a northerly direction during the thunderstorm
activity with gusts 35+ knots. Thunderstorm activity should exit
MHK by 17Z and by 18Z at the Topeka terminals. Another round of
thunderstorm are possible this evening into the overnight. Will
continue to refine timing on those thunderstorms in future
outlooks.
