National Weather Service Dodge City KS
1209 AM CDT Sun Jul 29 2018

...Updated Aviation Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Sunday)
Issued at 310 PM CDT Sat Jul 28 2018

Another cluster of storms is anticipated this evening into the
overnight period. Storms are expected to initiate and/or move into
west central Kansas around 00Z and trek southeastward through the
CWA. Models also suggest a second cluster of storms to form across
southern Nebraska and move into central Kansas a few hours later.
A few of these storms look to become severe with hail up to 2
inches, winds over 60 mph, and frequent lightning being the main
concern. With how moist the ground is, flooding may also be an
issue. Skies will become mostly cloudy overnight with some
clearing across far western Kansas towards sunrise. There may be a
few lingering showers across south central Kansas by sunrise
tomorrow. Otherwise expect decreasing cloudiness throughout the
day. Winds will generally be from a southeasterly direction
overnight then more of a northeasterly direction tomorrow. As for
temperatures, lows tonight are progged to range from the lower 60s
along the KS/CO border to upper 60s across south central Kansas.
Highs tomorrow are only expected to reach around 80 degrees along
the I-70 corridor to upper 80s along the KS/OK border.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday night through Saturday)
Issued at 310 PM CDT Sat Jul 28 2018

Another MCS will be possible Sunday night as an upper level trough
approaches. Locally heavy rain and strong winds will once again be
possible. A few lingering showers will be possible Monday morning
with decreasing cloudiness in the afternoon. Drier air then moves
into the area early to mid part of next week with much cooler
temperatures. One exception to this will be along the KS/CO border
where a few storms may slide into the area during the evening. As
for temperatures, highs look to only reach into the 80s Sunday,
upper 70s to low 80s Monday, Mid 80s Tuesday, then slowly warmer
each day with around 90 degrees by late week. Lows will generally
range form the upper 50s to upper 60s.

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Sunday night)
Issued at 1206 AM CDT Sun Jul 29 2018

Convection will continue to increase in coverage and continue
through at least 09z Sunday across southwest Kansas and north
central Kansas. BUFR soundings indicating at MVFR ceilings
possible with these storms overnight. These storms overnight will
be capable of producing strong gusty winds and reduced
visibilities due to heavy rainfall. As these storms taper off
towards 12z there may be a period of IFR stratus developing
around daybreak mainly in the Garden City, Dodge City, and
LIberal areas. Variable winds with these storms will gradually
become east northeast at 10 knots or less after 12z Sunday.
