.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday)
Issued at 328 PM CDT Tue May 30 2017

Convective chances exist very late this afternoon beginning in the
extreme southwest counties, and spreading slowly eastward through he
evening. Moderate instability/CAPE will be present with around 30
knots of bulk shear across western Kansas; an environment which the
HRRR drives current ongoing convection across the Sangre de Cristos
into by this evening. Given the limited instability and shear,
widespread high impact severe weather is not expected; LHP parameter
is only indicating around 4 to 5, on the low end of the 1.5 inch
hail spectrum, and storm may be too closely clustered as well.
Probably more commonly small hail and gusty winds with this event.
However the set up by Wednesday may be better suited for severe
weather reports (higher CAPE) especially if convection develops
earlier in the day across a stationary frontal boundary draped
from northwest though central Kansas.

A mild overnight with temperatures only falling to the upper 50s,
and the models are averaging about 5 degrees warmer than MOS. This
will be a jump start to warmer highs as well on Wednesday, as highs
climb into the mid and possibly upper 80s south.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 328 PM CDT Tue May 30 2017

No significant chances to the extended period.  Continuing with
near climatological weather, with highs in the 80s. Better
opportunity for more organized convection will be next week as a
western Plains ridge breaks down and  low pressure develops across
the northern rockies and Central Plains (ECMWF/GFS).

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening)
Issued at 600 PM CDT Tue May 30 2017

VFR is expected through TAF pd. Recent mosaic radar trends shows only
isolated tsra across NW Kansas. Activity is fairly weak and is not
moving very fast. Chance of impacting the terminals is on the low side.
Winds will be light/variable tonight to a light southerly wind increasing
10-15 kt tomorrow.
