Severe Thunderstorm Warning 97, NWS Hastings, NE

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Hastings NE
623 PM CDT Fri Jun 1 2018

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday)
Issued at 301 PM CDT Fri Jun 1 2018

Ahead of an approaching cold front, an axis of instability is
quite evident just west of the tri-cities where dew points in the
lower 70s have pooled and cumulus have already formed. MLCAPES of
at least 4000 J/kg in a narrow corridor will encourage rapid
growth of convection once the cap erodes. Thunderstorms are
already forming in the Sandhills and will eventually zip south and
edge into our CWA by 23Z to 01Z time range. This will be a
critical time to watch any discrete convection that forms as
hodographs indicate potential for tornadoes with lowered LCL and
backed winds at the surface. Very large hail with strong
downdrafts is anticipated.

Storms will congeal into a line by about 03Z to 04Z and will form
an organized line of storms which may exhibit derecho-like
qualities. Looking for potential of 70-80 mph wind gusts with this
line. Also, storms may lay out an outflow boundary that may stall
for several hours this evening and early overnight and with a
developing solid low-level jet, this may sustain training cells
which could give us flash flooding issues.

Subsidence behind the cold front will dry things out quickly for
Saturday, but wind will be noticeably strong for especially
Saturday morning, and dewpoints much drier. I have increased wind
speeds significantly. I lowered highs a tad into the mid 70s to
around 80 for most locations Saturday with the cooler air mass.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Friday)
Issued at 301 PM CDT Fri Jun 1 2018

The relatively cooler air near season norms will be around for
Monday, but the upper ridge will heat things up for later in the
week. However, the ridge may erode enough to allow perturbations
to round the ridge and give us chances of precip/thunderstorms
during the week. Still too early to tell how much of any severe
chances we will have.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z KGRI/KEAR TAFS through 00Z Saturday)
Issued at 616 PM CDT Fri Jun 1 2018

Main concern for this TAF period lies with thunderstorm chances
later this evening. Not much going on at this point near the
terminal areas, but activity currently to the NNW is expected to
expand in coverage and slide SSE later this evening. Have activity
ending at the terminals at 10Z, confidence in the exact timing
isn't the highest. The current gusty SSE winds will become more
variable in direction as the convection moves in, eventually
turning NWrly as the cold front pushes through. Gusty winds winds
are expected once again tomorrow.
