.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday)
Issued at 1232 PM CDT Sun Apr 28 2019

Severe weather chances tonight followed by a much colder, cloudy,
and windy Monday.

A shortwave moving out of eastern Colorado into western Kansas
will interact with a narrow instability axis along the border late
this afternoon. Dew points have risen into the lower to mid 50s
along the border with more lower level moisture expected to be
transported from Oklahoma into the rest of the region by this
evening. The downside to storms at least in the southern half of
the area will be a strong CAP for the whole area through the time
period.

Thunderstorms are expected to develop late this afternoon both in
northwest Kansas/northeast Colorado and southeast Colorado. Storms
in the southern parts of Colorado are mainly going to be discrete
supercells as they track into the southern half of southwest
Kansas. The northern storms are expected to evolve into a MCS line
along I-70 by this evening and continue into central Kansas for
the overnight. If the supercells can develop and get east of
highway 283 this evening...this will be the time they can interact
with the moisture coming in from Oklahoma. With good shear any
discrete supercell that can develop will have the possibility of
large hail (tennis ball or larger) and isolated tornadoes. The
northern storms won't have as robust of moisture to work with as
they move into the I-70 corridor. Inverted v soundings have been
the case so the biggest threat with those storms will be downburst
winds (70+ mph) and hail up to the size of golf balls.

Confidence will be greatest with the northern MCS line
occurring...much lower confidence for the super cell chances
tonight with the CAP. However if the supercells can form the
impacts in these isolated areas will be the greatest.

Once the convection moves out by midnight a strong cold front will
race through southwest Kansas increasing the winds out of the
north 25-40 mph with higher gusts. Post frontal stratus will
overtake the area through much of the day. 850 mb temps will be in
the 4-7 (C) range through the day. High temperatures will struggle
to get to the 60s by afternoon.

.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 148 PM CDT Sun Apr 28 2019

A fairly active long term forecast is upcoming with periodic
chances of storms all the way through next weekend.

Monday night the combination of a warm front lifting back in from
Oklahoma and a strong shortwave coming over the Colorado Rockies
into western Kansas will introduce more chances of rain and storms
starting around midnight for our southeast zones and overspreading
the entire region by Tuesday morning. With rain and clouds
expected through the day Tuesday another cool afternoon is
expected with highs in the upper 50s to mid 60s.

The next shortwave combining with a strong cold front will come in
Wednesday night into Thursday morning. This setup could
potentially be another marginal severe risk given the strong
baroclinic zone combining with the upper level forcing. A lot will
depend on how much sun we can get through the day and if winds can
turn more southeasterly by Wednesday afternoon.

Next chance of rain looks to be Thursday night into Friday morning
with another shortwave racing out of Colorado. The location of
this wave would put more of the northern areas in the path of some
rain and storms.

More shortwaves are in the forecast from both long term models for
Saturday and Sunday which will give us more chances of storms both
days.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Monday night)
Issued at 1200 AM CDT Mon Apr 29 2019

Storms continue to move off to the east now. This activity will continue
to drift out of the area over the next few hours. MVFR cigs will be
possible through the overnight in association with post frontal stratus.
Improvement back to VFR is expected later in the morning. Otherwise,
with fropa through the overnight winds will switch N 20-30 kt.

1255 PM CDT Sun Apr 28 2019 /1155 AM MDT Sun Apr 28 2019/

This hazardous weather outlook is for portions of central...south
central...southwest and west central Kansas.

.DAY ONE...This afternoon and tonight.

Day 1 Discussion
----------------

Two areas of severe weather are possible from 6-10 pm. The first
area will be along the I-70 corridor and the main threat will be
downburst winds potentially around 70 mph and hail to the size of
golfballs. Confidence is greatest with this area of storms. The
second area will be 1 or 2 discrete supercells developing along
and south of highway 50 near the Colorado border. As they move
east of highway 283 they will interact with a moist environment
and good shear which could produce hail tennis ball or greater and
isolated tornadoes. This area has less confidence due to a strong
cap however if a storm can develop it will produce the greater
impacts.

Day 1 Hazards
-------------
* Tornado: Limited risk
* Hail: Elevated risk
* Thunderstorm wind damage: Limited risk
* Lightning: Elevated risk
* Non-thunderstorm wind: Elevated risk

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday.
