Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wichita KS
206 PM CDT Wed Aug 9 2017

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday night)
Issued at 206 PM CDT Wed Aug 9 2017

Showers and storms that are lingering over east/central KS look
to be the result of 850-700mb moisture advection that will
continue this afternoon over at least eastern KS. Meanwhile,
surface based storm development is expected along a surface trough
from central Nebraska into far nw KS. This activity is expected
to try and work to the southeast this evening, potentially
impacting at least central KS. Also cant rule out at least some
iso activity just about anywhere tonight as mid level warm
advection remains with minimal capping.

Low level moisture will remain on the high side for Thu which will
lead to some better instability with the airmass remaining
uncapped. Not much in the way of surface focus for activity Thu
with upslope processes over the high Plains providing the most
likely forcing for development. There is strong model agreement in
widespread storms developing Thu evening as 850-700mb theta-e
advection and moisture transport really ramps up. In addition, a
decent upper jet looks to track across northern KS Thu night,
placing much of the forecast area in the right entrance region of
the jet. Even with meager instability, with increasing shear,
can't rule out a strong/severe storm Thu night, however feel that
high rainfall rates and potential flooding will be the bigger
issue. This will mainly be due to an unseasonal high PW airmass
in place.

Bulk of the activity should be pushing south of the forecast area
for Fri with just some lingering sct activity over far southern
KS. Pattern looks to become active again Sat into Sat night as
both ECMWF and GFS agree on shortwave energy digging across the
northern Rockies and swinging into the northern Plains.

Even though higher dewpoints will continue to make it feel muggy,
confidence is high that afternoon maxes remain below seasonal
normals as they continue to top out in the 80s.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Wednesday)
Issued at 206 PM CDT Wed Aug 9 2017

There is decent agreement between medium range models in some weak
ridging setting up over the Rockies/high Plains for Sun into Mon
with a shortwave trough anchored from the Great Lakes into the
Ohio Valley. The big question for our precip chances through these
periods will be how far south the baroclinc zone gets pushed. If
it hangs up over southern KS then we would likely continue at
least some sct storm chances. However, there are also model
solutions pushing the front down into OK which would greatly
diminish our precip chances. So with model differences will not go
too far yet in either direction. Confidence is much higher with
regards to temps, as they will remain well below seasonal
averages through these extended periods.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Thursday afternoon)
Issued at 1235 PM CDT Wed Aug 9 2017

With lots of low level moisture in place, we will continue to see
the low level cumulus in the mvfr range periodically with a
mixture of rw and isolated trw at most sites. The scattered rw/trw
will continue through the late evening and overnight hours ahead
of a front that will move across on Thursday. This is the
beginning of a very unsettled pattern that will last into the
weekend.

This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of Central Kansas,
South Central Kansas and Southeast Kansas.

.DAY ONE...This afternoon and Tonight

Scattered storms will be possible late this afternoon into the
overnight hours. Severe storms are not expected. However, brief
heavy rain, small hail and a gust to 50 mph cannot be ruled out.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday

Thunderstorm chances will increase Thursday evening, especially
across southern Kansas. While a couple severe storms producing large
hail and downburst winds can't be ruled out, the bigger threat looks
to be heavy rain and potential flooding Thursday night.

Scattered storm chances will continue over much of the area for the
weekend into the start of the work week. Some of these storms could
become strong, and will be capable of producing gusty winds, small
hail, and locally heavy rainfall.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not anticipated this afternoon or tonight.
