Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Dodge City KS
141 PM CDT Mon Jun 3 2019

...Updated Long Term Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(This afternoon through Tuesday)
Issued at 1141 AM CDT Mon Jun 3 2019

Southwest flow aloft over southwest Kansas with a deep upper level
low across the four corner region giving way to decent difluent
flow across the high plains allowing for exhaust for apparent
storms late this afternoon and evening. A short wave is expected
to propagate across the region this afternoon sparking off storms
over the Raton Mesa area and eastern Colorado before pushing
across the state line into Kansas by 5PM. These storms will
initiate due to strong daytime heating this afternoon and
geographical lift across the higher elevations of these areas
before pushing to lower elevations of the high plains into the
evening hours. Large scale forcing mechanisms look to be weak and
thus, these storms look like to be short lived if not dying off
before reaching far western Kansas with only general storms
pushing across the CWA and exiting before midnight. None the less,
with instability moderate in CAPE and mid level lapse rates with
clear skies allowing for ample warm up, hail could be the initial
risk before reaching the region before becoming mostly a wind
event as storms cluster up into a line. Beyond that, expect
afternoon high temperatures to swell into the mid to upper 80s
with near or at 90 for western counties along the Colorado state
line. Breezy south to southwest winds will diminish overnight due
to night time cooling with cloudy skies from the aforementioned
storms clearing out before midnight.

Tuesday morning low temperatures will start pretty mild in the
low to mid 60s as winds will stay relatively light due to a
weakened pressure gradient with high pressure extending in from
the north and northeast. Another round of storms look to develop
once again by mid afternoon across northeastern New Mexico and
southeastern Colorado before pushing into far western Kansas later
in the afternoon and evening time frame. With the upper level low
starting to push further east, expect another short wave to push
across the high plains. Coupled with divergent upper level
southwest flow and ample daytime heating and instability once
again, expect severe weather during this time frame with large
hail and damaging winds once again being the main threats. The
stronger low level jet as depicted today, will not be near as
strong tomorrow with this event, and thus, the growth of a much
larger scale look to be pretty diminished. These storms look to
push off out of the CWA again before midnight giving way to
clearing skies and weaker winds. Afternoon high temperatures
Tuesday afternoon will once again be in the mid to upper 80s with
overnight lows into Wednesday morning in upper 50s to mid 60s west
to east across the CWA.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
Issued at 127 PM CDT Mon Jun 3 2019

After another mild start, not as much of a warm up for Wednesday
only making it into the low to mid 80s for the majority of the CWA
behind the aforementioned shortwave from Tuesday evening and early
night. Another round of storms could be possible Wednesday
afternoon and evening with another shortwave, but with the upper
level low on the progression eastward, the severe impacts to be
more centered further east into central to eastern Kansas. General
thunderstorms expected for southwest Kansas but still could see
gustier winds and smaller size hail but the severe threats will
remain east. Similar conditions for Thursday with the severe
threat pushing further east into the Missouri River basin as the
aforementioned upper level low pushes further east before lifting
across the area and to the northeast Thursday night into Friday.
General thunderstorms still possible Thursday afternoon and
evening but severity not likely. Morning lows will be upper 50s to
low 60s with afternoon highs only in the 70s with increased cloud
clover due to the aforementioned low near overhead for the high
plains inhibiting a strong diurnal warm up.

A warming and drying trend in store to end the week on Friday and
into the weekend. An upper level ridge builds in across the
western United States due to strong confluent flow aloft with high
pressure extending across the surface for western Kansas. Morning
low temperatures will generally be in the upper 50s to mid 60s
with afternoon high temperatures pushing back into the 80s with
near 90 for Saturday as the warmest day of the long term outlook.

Another weak and dry cold front extends out of the Wyoming front
range that will drop temperatures back into the 70s for Monday and
the new work week. Moisture content looks to be dry and stable as
it passes through the area due to the northwest flow aloft and
downsloping surface flow. Expect dry conditions to continue into
the rest of the week with a good warm up in store with long term
outlooks indicating a dryer and warmer than average spell for the
10-15 day outlook. Even though rainfall amounts look to be not
near as much this week not seeing much more than an inch in most
areas of the CWA, sure will take what can get in the meantime
before the hot and dry summer time approaches in time for the
area.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 1132 AM CDT Mon Jun 3 2019

VFR conditions will prevail through the entire period for all
sites with breezy south to southwest winds between 10-15kts.
Storms look to develop across eastern Colorado this afternoon and
pushing eastward by 00Z for LBL and GCK, 02Z for DDC, and 04Z for
HYS. these will last only a couple hours before pushing east of
the sites and out of the CWA. By 14Z, clear skies and weaker
southwest winds with a weaker gradient across the CWA under the
influence of surface high pressure and weak upper level flow. No
other weather elements are expected nor forecasted until the next
cycle with more thunderstorm activity expected Tuesday afternoon
and evening.
