Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Dodge City KS
604 PM CDT Thu Jun 29 2017

...Updated Aviation Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 208 PM CDT Thu Jun 29 2017

Convective allowing models are fairly aggressive with respect to
upscale thunderstorm growth across western into south central Kansas
this evening. The old cold front has already begun to wash out with
models shoeing more broad easterly surface winds heading into
tonight. As earlier concerns of initial development across the far
southeast have waned, models such as the HRRR have become more
aggressive with the upscale growth into a qlcs wind event well into
central Kansas before midnight. We've increased pops to account
for these latest model runs, as well as adjusted overnight lows
for early Friday morning downward. Large hail up to 2 inches may
be the primary threat in the western counties while a wind threat
and heavy rain threat may be more likely with time this evening
into central Kansas counties.

Friday the area will be under the influence of weak northeasterly
surface flow, as a a midlevel shortwave move  across the KS/NE line by
the afternoon. This should produce scattered showers and
thunderstorms through the afternoon given the average MUCAPES
around 500 j/KG.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday)
Issued at 208 PM CDT Thu Jun 29 2017

The front and major instability/CAPE axis moves farther southeast
into the southern Plains by Saturday. Any storm threats by Saturday
might be in the extreme west it at all. However, the entire southern
High Plains region maintains relatively high dew points, with richer
moisture not being scoured out. The GFS already has a trough across
the Rockies  by Sunday  with vorticity advection into Kansas by
Sunday night.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday evening)
Issued at 603 PM CDT Thu Jun 29 2017

Short term models earlier this afternoon have been in good
agreement with bringing a cluster of strong to severe
thunderstorms across western Kansas early tonight. Strong winds
and heavy rainfall appear to be the main hazards. Timing so fair
has also been in decent agreement between the last few runs so
will follow the latest trend and introduce strong winds in excess
of 45 knots and at least IFR visibilities and ceilings with these
storms. Timing and track favors the Garden City terminal between
01z and 03z Friday and the Dodge City, Hays and possibly even
Liberal terminals between 02z and 04z Friday. Once these storms
pass the prevailing winds will become north northeast at 10 to 15
knots through the remainder of the night. Model soundings suggest
the potential for some MVFR stratus being possible between late
tonight, especially between 09z and 15z Friday.
