Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Dodge City KS
127 AM CDT Sun Jun 24 2018

...Updated Long Term Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
Issued at 1230 AM CDT Sun Jun 24 2018

A cluster of thunderstorms will continue to push east and
southeast out of the CWA in the next hour or two. There is strong
wind gusts up to 70 mph out of these storms due to moderate
instability associated with this convection. Once these storms
pass out of the forecast area, it will give way to mostly cloudy
skies and lighter easterly winds less than 10 mph with low
temperatures in the upper 50s to low 60s across the CWA. Skies
will clear out to mostly clear skies throughout the morning time
frame allowing temperatures to push into the 80s for most of the
area.

Afternoon thunderstorms will develop around 5PM across much of the
CWA from west to east as a short wave trough propagates through
western Kansas. Mid level flow will be moderate and ample low
level moisture with dewpoints in the upper 60s to low 70s will
help aid in severe development into the evening and early night
hours. The trigger point will be with a frontal boundary that will
drop through the CWA supported by the aforementioned shortwave
trough. There is deep layer shear and steep lapse rates that will
help favor supercell development during the peak heating hours of
the day initially. This will support damaging wind gusts up to
70mph and hail up to the size of baseballs. Cells that become
discrete will have the possibility for a couple of tornadoes due
to the sufficient low level shear available in the pristine
environment. Storms will begin to push out of the area to the east
and southeast after 10PM with most of the convective and severe
activity out of the CWA at this time. Lingering showers and
thunderstorms could still be in the far southeastern portions of
the area but quickly move out by midnight on Sunday. Isolated
areas of heavy rainfall will increase areas of localized
flooding, especially in areas affected by the recent rains and the
ground being conducive for such an occurrence already saturated
as it is at this point in time.

Low temperatures will drop into the mid to upper 50s near 60 for
most the CWA behind the cold front with light northwesterly winds
5-10 mph through Monday morning.

.LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday)
Issued at 115 AM CDT Sun Jun 24 2018

The start of a new work week on Monday will begin a warming and
drying trend for the CWA with afternoon high temperatures pushing
back into the upper 80s with upper level ridging setting up over
the Rocky Mountains and the western high plains. Temperatures will
soar in the mid to upper 90s Tuesday and near 100 on Wednesday due
to a stronger southwest downsloping flow sets up for southwestern
Kansas picking up in wind speeds by mid week with gusts pushing
25-30 mph. Low temperatures will be very mild starting off in the
mid to upper 60s through mid week.

Dry and hot will rinse and repeat through the end of the week on
Friday with low temperatures starting off in the 70s and high
temperatures near 100 for the entire CWA of southwestern Kansas.
Winds will continue out of the south to southwest bringing in the
heat from the warming downsloping wind with gusts up to 30-35 mph.

The weekend will start off as the week ended with high
temperatures in the mid to upper 90s and strong south-
southwesterly wind gusting up to 30 mph. However, Saturday night
looks to see a weak and dry cold frontal boundary pass through the
area bringing more seasonable temperatures and small chances of
precipitation with PoPs only in the 20s this far out in the
forecast period. Temperatures Sunday will only be around 90 with a
lighter north to northeasterly wind. This shift in pattern is
short lived with the shortwave trough quickly pushing across the
plains and ridging setting back up by the end of the weekend and
beyond.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Sunday night)
Issued at 1205 AM CDT Sun Jun 24 2018

Current ongoing thunderstorm activity will be pushing east and
southeast of all TAF sites. VFR conditions will prevail into the
afternoon hours with scattered high clouds and light southeasterly
winds less than 10-12kts. After 22Z, thunderstorm activity will
return for all locations as a short wave trough propagates through
the area. These storms will bring MVFR ceilings and visibility
down to 1SM and 1000 feet respectively. Winds will gust to 35kts
in thunderstorms as they pass overhead. The thunderstorm activity
will push east and diminish towards the end of the TAF period
after 06Z.
