Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wichita KS
550 AM CST Thu Mar 9 2017

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Saturday night)
Issued at 225 AM CST Thu Mar 9 2017

The main challenge today will be the timing of the incoming front.
The moisture transport in front of the system is rather weak and
as a result the front will come through dry in most areas.
Southeast Kansas will be a different story. Moisture transport in
SE Kansas is much stronger and is accompanied by some good low
level shear and CAPE values reaching into the 1000-2000 J/Kg
range. Mid and upper level speed shear is also good. This set up
presents good conditions for some isolated to scattered severe
thunderstorms across parts of Southeast Kansas with some hail up
to golf balls and 70 mph wind gusts with the strongest storms.

The next major challenge is a significant threat for winter
weather to return to region which will be a rather rude awakening
to the region after more than a month of above normal temperatures
and little if any precipitation. Currently, the next system will
come through with significant moisture transport ahead of it and a
rather strong high pressure system to the North and East. This set
up will prevent the surface winds from turning completely around
to the South. Winds will remain Easterly for the most part. 850mb
winds though will come up from the South which will keep some
good WAA at this level through Saturday morning. This will keep
temps at this level in the +1C to +4C range in most areas with
near to below freezing temps at the surface. This will create a
freezing rain set up with some trace accumulations. The bulk of
the ice accumulations will be on elevated surfaces and bridges.
The WAA at the 850mb and some at the surface will continue through
most of the day and will change any freezing rain over to all
rain by the late morning. By Saturday afternoon, this front will
push off to the East and CAA will take over as the winds shift to
the North. The rain may shift over to snow for a brief period of
time before ending completely and colder temperatures take over.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Wednesday)
Issued at 225 AM CST Thu Mar 9 2017

The next weather system will come through on Monday. Temperatures
will again be boarder line which lends to some mixed
precipitation. 850mb temps at this time are also borderline which
again lends to some freezing rain for a short period. Any
accumulations are not expected to be significant if any. Strong
CAA will dominate the region for a good portion of next week
behind this system. Temperatures are expected to be much closer to
normal or maybe a little below for the first part of next week.
The weather pattern will calm some for the extended range but
temperatures will remain closer to normal than they have for the
past couple of weeks.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Friday morning)
Issued at 550 AM CST Thu Mar 9 2017

VFR stratocu and altocu bases/cigs are expected today across
southern Kansas. Scattered convection will be possible from
midday through the afternoon east of the Kansas turnpike, ahead
of a cold front which will move south into central Kansas. This
front will push south across southern Kansas early this evening.
Gusty north to northeast winds can be expected behind the front
this evening and tonight.

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 225 AM CST Thu Mar 9 2017

Fire weather looks much better than it has for the past couple of
days. Fire Danger levels are expected to be in the moderate to
high categories for the next several days. While winds will be
brisk today and much of the weekend, they are expect to remain
below advisory level helping to keep the fire danger levels down.
