Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service North Platte NE
629 PM CDT Wed Jun 6 2018

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 238 PM CDT Wed Jun 6 2018

In the near term rap and hrr in fair agreement with development
of thunderstorms along the stationary boundary over southwest
Nebraska this afternoon. Steep lapse rates and drier mid level
sounding would suggest strong winds initially. Weaker low level
jet develops over northwest Kansas this afternoon around 20kts.
Low level jet ramps up to 45 kts through 06z with biggest push
from 03z through 06z. sb capes around 1800 with mu capes
increasing to around 3000 joules. Upslope easterly flow will aid
in convergence and lift. fairly strong 500mb wave will move across
the area coinciding with the max low level jet. Pwats around 130
percent of normal around an inch, with thunderstorms capable of
moderate to heavy rainfall.

A stronger wave rounds the ridge Thursday with temperatures knocked
back into the 80s another round of thunderstorms in late afternoon
early evening.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 238 PM CDT Wed Jun 6 2018

Friday through Sunday typical summer time pattern with storms firing
off the front range and then moving across the plains into western
Nebraska late afternoon and evening. Highs around 90 through the
period.

A strong trough will move out of the Pacific Northwest and onto the
northern plains Sunday sending a cool front through the area Sunday
night into Monday with thunderstorms and temperatures back in the
80s.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Thursday evening)
Issued at 630 PM CDT Wed Jun 6 2018

Timing of thunderstorms, especially across the southern two-thirds
of the area will be the main forecast challenge. Newest CAMS
suggest storms congealing and growing upscale and moving across
much of the area overnight. Low level jet may be a factor as well,
however have not included in the TAF at this time since it will be
in and near convection. KVTN will have the lesser chance for
storms because of its more northern proximity.

Once storms move out there will likely be convective debris in the
form of mid level clouds in the morning.
