Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Goodland KS
600 PM MDT Thu Jun 29 2017

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 300 PM MDT Thu Jun 29 2017

An upper level disturbance currently moving southeast over the
Colorado front range is forecast to initiate showers and
thunderstorms generally along and south of the interstate and west
of highway 27 around 00z. Upper level jet divergence signature
suggests a cluster of thunderstorms which is also suggested by
hrrr model qpf. Severe weather is likely. This cluster of storms
is expected to move east and southeast across the area during the
evening and generally out of the area by midnight. Should have a
lull in activity during the early morning hours of Friday before
another disturbance and jet support moves in from the northwest
supporting another chance of showers/thunderstorms by sunrise. Mid
level moisture rather lacking during the afternoon so only slight
chance pops for now.

Low temperatures in the low 50s west to low 60s east. High
temperatures Friday in the low to mid 70s in far eastern Colorado,
mid 70s to low 80s elsewhere.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday)
Issued at 137 PM MDT Thu Jun 29 2017

Flow aloft becomes northwesterly Friday night as a ridge builds over
the southwestern CONUS. High pressure moves east onto the region,
resulting in increased temperatures on Saturday as well as dry
weather. Models hint at a quick shot at precipitation overnight on
Saturday for the southern portion of the forecast area.

The next shortwave set to impact the area arrives on Sunday,
generating shower and thunderstorm chances in the afternoon and
evening. The shortwave strengthens a lee trough, with southerly
winds drawing moisture north. The increasing moisture along with
decent shear and instability should be enough for a few severe
thunderstorms. Will continue to monitor. Precipitation exits the
region overnight.

A somewhat active pattern continues into next week with the upper
ridge expanding northeast and some moisture filtering northward
underneath. A similar setup to Sunday will develop on Monday.
However, in addition to this, a disturbance traverses the Rockies
and advances across the area. This generates shower and thunderstorm
chances again in the afternoon and evening hours. Dry conditions are
anticipated on Tuesday as the system moves east.

Wednesday and Thursday: The upper ridge over the southwestern
portion of the country amplifies, expanding north and east, and flow
aloft remains from the north northwest during this period on the
eastern side of the high pressure. Guidance differs in the strength
and position of the ridge. Kept slight to low chance PoPs each
afternoon and evening as disturbances work their way through the
flow.

High temperatures during the period mainly range within the mid 80s
to mid 90s across the region. Low temperatures stay in the 50s and
60s.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday evening)
Issued at 530 PM MDT Thu Jun 29 2017

TSRA with MVFR to VFR will start out the GLD TAF with a quick
return to VFR conditions once the discrete cell moves east of the
site after 01Z.

MCK will remain VFR through the TAF period with a few
thunderstorms moving through the vicinity between 02-06Z. Showers
may also move through the area of the MCK site between 14-20Z
during the day on Friday.
