Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Goodland KS
526 PM MDT Mon Jul 3 2017

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 128 PM MDT Mon Jul 3 2017

Another weather disturbance embedded within northwest flow aloft is
forecast to emerge over the northeastern plains of Colorado
including Yuma south through Kit Carson counties. Isolated showers
and thunderstorms are initially expected with a gradual increase
in coverage and possible intensity this evening as it moves east
across the area. Another possibility is similar to last night with
showers/thunderstorms moving southeast from central Nebraska.
HRRR suggesting wind gusts in the 50 to 60 mph range so for now
have added gusty winds to the grids. Precipitation should be out
of the area shortly after midnight. Low temperatures in the mid
50s to mid 60s.

For Tuesday am expecting plenty of sunshine by mid to late morning.
Models suggesting another weather disturbance moving into the
western 2/3 of the area a little sooner compared to the past few
days with a few thunderstorms possible generally from McCook to
Tribune/Leoti and points west by 00z Wednesday. Afternoon
temperatures expected to reach the upper 80s to low 90s.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
Issued at 128 PM MDT Mon Jul 3 2017

Shower and thunderstorm chances continue into Tuesday night from the
afternoon as a weak shortwave moves east of the region. Height rises
to the west should hinder convection, but cannot rule out a few
thunderstorms. Severe weather will be possible generally north of
Interstate 70 with large hail and damaging winds as the main
threats.

An upper ridge over the western CONUS expands north and east on
Wednesday and Thursday, keeping the area under north northwest flow
aloft. High pressure dominates the pattern, resulting in dry
conditions during this timeframe. However, guidance has introduced a
quick shot at precipitation Thursday night into Friday as a
disturbance rotates around the eastern edge of the high pressure.

A backdoor cold front approaches the High Plains on Friday, stalling
across the region for the weekend. Meanwhile, the ridge to the west
flattens/regresses and the area is placed under northwest flow
aloft, allowing disturbances to work their way across the region.
This setup enables patchy shower and thunderstorm chances to return
to the forecast through the end of the period. It's a bit too soon
to tell the timing and location of the waves passing through the
eastern periphery of the ridge, so will have to monitor in the
coming days and refine the forecast.

High temperatures will be in the upper 80s to upper 90s throughout
the period. However, a few locations along the Nebraska border could
see temperatures near 100 degrees on Thursday. Low temperatures will
be in the upper 50s to upper 60s.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Tuesday evening)
Issued at 526 PM MDT Mon Jul 3 2017

VFR conditions should prevail at KGLD and KMCK terminals, and
prevailing winds should remain below 12kt through the TAF period.
Thunderstorm activity over eastern Colorado is expected to impact
KGLD, with less confidence at KMCK. Temporary restrictions to vis
3-6sm, gusty winds, and possibly hail could accompany this
activity. Current guidance favors this activity decreasing in
coverage near KGLD and sliding south-southeast with less coverage
in SW Nebraska. Adjustments were made to reflect these trends.
Some guidance is showing potential for stratus/fog in north
central Kansas by 12Z, but even if this were to occur it is shown
to remain well southeast of both terminals where better low level
moisture should linger.
