What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this high wind warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Goodland, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high wind warning went out at Mar 4, 10:42 AM MST, 2 hours 27 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 4, 10:42 AM MST, 2 hours 27 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Goodland KS
1042 AM MST Sun Mar 4 2018

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1030 AM MST Sun Mar 4 2018

Upgraded the Fire Weather Watch on Monday to a Red Flag Warning.
The High Wind Watch for Monday will likely require an upgrade to
a High Wind Warning. Some additional considerations include:

1) Starting the High Wind Warning as early as 06Z Mon (late this evening)
to account for a period of strong NW winds/gusts in the wake of the
cold frontal passage late this evening/overnight.

2) During the day Monday, high sustained winds (35-45 mph) may be
more likely than gusts exceeding 55 mph.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Tuesday)
Issued at 300 AM MST Sun Mar 4 2018

Strong negatively tilted shortwave trough will move out of the
central Rockies and across the central High Plains Sunday night.
Gusty southwest winds ahead of it combined with warm temperatures
and low humidity will result in another day of critical fire
weather conditions. Confidence is highest south of the interstate
and lowest in southwest Nebraska, where winds will be marginal.
Tonight, cold front associated with the trough will move through
in the evening. Brief wind gusts of 50-60mph and areas of blowing
dust may occur for an hour or two behind the front. Winds will
diminish after midnight but still be breezy. Precipitation may
brush southwest Nebraska but better forcing will remain to the
north. On Monday, deep mixing will commence by mid to late morning
with models mixing to near 700mb. A wind max of around 55kt at
700mb is forecast to move west to east during the day, so will
keep the high wind watch going with no changes. Despite cooler
temperatures, another critical fire weather day also looks
possible, especially south of Interstate 70, while further north
humidity may not get low enough, however will keep watch going
unchanged with inherent uncertainty. Tuesday looks like another
windy day, especially in the northeast half where 700mb winds will
be over 50kts and deep mixing to near 700mb is forecast. As for
fire weather, humidity values currently forecast to be in the
15-25 percent range due to cooler temperatures, a tad above
critical criteria, but may have to take another look at Tuesday as
it gets closer for wind and/or fire weather.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Saturday)
Issued at 246 AM MST Sun Mar 4 2018

Forecast concern will be the next chance for precipitation which
looks to be next weekend. Satellite continues to show an amplified
and blocky pattern from the Pacific into the western Atlantic.

At the beginning of the period the models flatten out the flow aloft
considerably, for a few days anyway, from what is going on at this
time. Then toward the end of the period the flow starts
reamplifying. This leads to increasing spread in deterministic and
ensemble output during this time. In general for Wednesday through
Friday, a flattening and weakening ridge moves across the region.
This will keep dry conditions in place and bring about a slow
warming trend. As a result liked what the forecast builder gave me
and made no changes.

However the models start having differences in how they handle the
trough coming in and the amount of the amplification of the flow
from the eastern Pacific into western North America. The Canadian
and especially the latest Ecmwf are much more amplified/further west
with the developing ridge and strengthening upper system over the
central plains. Gfs is more progressive and further east with its
forecast features.

Considering that the Canadian and Ecmwf are not too different and
that the GEFS ensemble mean supports the Canadian and Ecmwf
solutions more, am thinking that the more amplified solution will be
the one that evolves which is what the WPC manual 500 flow charts
show. However details are far from being resolved. The Ecmwf is
showing an interesting storm evolution over the region of which
you do not normally see.

Having said all that, the cool down the forecaster builder gave me
looks reasonable and did not change. Also left alone the
precipitation chances for next weekend. Some form of a trough comes
through and will give us some chance of precipitation. However,
model differences this far out led me to keep what the forecaster
builder gave.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon)
Issued at 1030 AM MST Sun Mar 4 2018

VFR conditions will rule through the entire TAF period. Primary
concern for aviation will be gusty southwest winds this afternoon,
followed by an abrupt wind shift to the NW in the wake of a cold
frontal passage this evening. NW winds will increase in magnitude
after the frontal passage, becoming sustained at 25-30 knots with
gusts to 40 knots overnight. Sustained winds of 30-35 knots with
gusts to 50 knots will be possible Monday morning (e.g. sunrise
through noon).
