Area forecast discussion, Sep 9, 4:44 PM CDT, 4 hours 39 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Goodland KS 344 PM MDT Mon Sep 9 2019 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday Night) Issued at 237 PM MDT Mon Sep 9 2019 Looking aloft today, will see a more westerly flow take over. Went and took pops down today to around 20%, and shifted the higher pops to hug our southeastern border. As of 3 PM, convection had begun developing along this area. That said, lower levels still look like they are a bit dryer that previously thought, so not expecting much convection or fog developing across the Tri-State area this evening into tomorrow. Any storms and showers that continue to develop will originate along our southern CWA border and propogate slowly to the east northeast. An isolated severe storm will be possible. Threats anticipated will be large hail and damaging wind. Showers and storms are expected to end by midnight. Tuesday, an upper level trough will deepen and push it's way from the west coast over Colorado, lining up southwest of our area, centered on WFO PUB's area by Wednesday night. Along with this, we will see the return of some mid-level moisture. This may be just enough to generate a couple of showers and storms, but, at this time, no severe weather is expected. Will be taking a closer look at winds tomorrow, guidance is in disagreement, but we may see some significant sustained winds across the area. Went with CONSALL for the Tuesday evening time period. RH's will still be too high for any fire weather concerns, but it's something that should be mentioned. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday) Issued at 111 PM MDT Mon Sep 9 2019 A trough moves northeast into the northern Plains by Thursday morning with a ridge sitting over most of the eastern U.S. The trough moves out of the northern and central Plains Thursday night as a ridge moves in over the Intermountain West. Almost zonal flow aloft moves over the Tri-State area Friday through Saturday as a ridge and trough move across southern Canada. Low pressure extends south into the northwest and north-central U.S. through Sunday as the center of high pressure sits just off the Mid-Atlantic coast. During the day Monday, a ridge develops over the Intermountain West as a trough forms along the Pacific Northwest coastline. A cold front moves across the Tri-State region Wednesday night associated with a mid-latitude cyclone over the eastern Dakotas. Showers and thunderstorms are expected Wednesday evening associated with the front. There is an isolated chance for storms Thursday evening along and south of Hwy 40/287 with otherwise dry conditions through the beginning of next week. High pressure at the surface moves over the Plains and Intermountain West behind the cold front. By Saturday, leeside troughing develops along the Front Range of the Rockies. High temperatures in the mid-70s to lower 90s are expected with cooler temperatures Thursday and Friday. Low temperatures will range from the upper 40s to mid-60s with the coldest morning Friday. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon) Issued at 1240 PM MDT Mon Sep 9 2019 Throughout the remainder of the TAF period, VFR conditions are expected to prevail at the Goodland and McCook terminal. This afternoon, there will be a chance of showers and storms impacting the terminals, but confidence on timing and location was too low to add in the TAFs. Storms will start in the afternoon, ending by midnight tonight. && .GLD WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KS...NONE. CO...NONE. NE...NONE. && SHORT TERM...EV LONG TERM...NEWMAN AVIATION...EV
