What forecasters said that day

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

NWS Wichita, KS wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Mar 12, 12:53 PM CDT, 3 hours 22 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 12, 12:53 PM CDT, 3 hours 22 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wichita KS
1253 PM CDT Tue Mar 12 2019

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Thursday night)
Issued at 336 AM CDT Tue Mar 12 2019

Satellite water vapor imagery shows a mesmerizing dynamic upper
level system spinning over northern Baja region early this morning.
This system will begin its journey northeast across the Rockies for
today and eject out into western Kansas by Wednesday afternoon. A
lead short wave will move across the high plains region this
afternoon. Models are in good agreement showing a stream of
increasing moisture transport ahead of this wave during the
afternoon. As a result, showers/storms look to become more numerous
mainly across southern Kansas for this afternoon and early evening.
There could be a little lull in the precipitation coverage tonight
before a more robust surge of moisture transport occurs later
tonight. This next moisture surge will expand/amplify another round
of showers and storms for western and central Kansas. Widespread 1
to 2 inches with some locally higher rainfall amounts are
anticipated across the region for this event. The rainfall will
become more problematic for central Kansas compared to southern
Kansas due to saturated soils and rivers running higher than normal.
Flooding of low lying and poor drainage areas along with some rivers
possibly overflowing their banks supports on-going Flood Watch for
central kansas.

On Wednesday, a pronounced line of showers/storms will quickly race
eastward from Kansas into Missouri during the morning hours with a
break in the precipitation and some clearing skies during the late
morning/afternoon hours. Meanwhile, surface cyclogenesis will
undergo explosive development and very significant pressure falls.
This combined with expansion of deep adiabatic mixing spreading
northeast from western Oklahoma into central/south central Kansas
will tap into much stronger wind speeds aloft. This could generate
extreme winds with gusts over 60mph possible by Wednesday afternoon.
We will maintain and expand the High Wind Watch for a few counties
to the north. A wind advisory will likely be needed on the periphery
of the high wind watch.

Still see a decent signal for re-newed low topped convection to
develop near and south of closed upper low center late Wednesday
afternoon over central Kansas. A few strong storms will be possible.

The surface low pressure center will shift eastward for Wednesday
night into Thursday and remain coiled up tightly. Once again very
strong winds will be problematic but switch to the northwest for
this period. A High Wind Watch remains in effect for central Kansas
on Thursday. A rain/snow mix could spread into central Kansas for
late Wednesday night and Thursday morning.

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Monday)
Issued at 336 AM CDT Tue Mar 12 2019

Surface high pressure will settle over the region in the wake of the
departing upper level system for Friday with below normal
temperatures likely. Meanwhile dry weather and a gradual warming
trend will be in store for the upcoming weekend and Monday.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday afternoon)
Issued at 1242 PM CDT Tue Mar 12 2019

Aviation concerns: TSRA, LLWS, low CIGS/VIS.

An extended period of poor aviation conditions is anticipated
through the remainder of this TAF cycle and then continuing into
later TAF periods. An unseasonably strong upper level system
moving into the SW US will send waves of SHRA and TSRA across the
area through Wednesday morning. Thunderstorms will cause
reductions in VIS to as low as 1-3SM and may contain some hail up
to penny size (as was reported south of KICT earlier today).
Confidence in the timing of TSRA is fairly high, but amendments
can be expected through tonight as we get a better handle on when
and where each round of thunderstorms will be. Drier air moves in
by mid to late Wednesday morning, setting the stage for what will
be a very windy/gusty period Wednesday afternoon through Thursday
morning. LLWS can be expected for most sites as the winds aloft
rapidly increase this evening/tonight. It should be noted that a
period of anomalous and strong 55+ kt gusts are anticipated for
portions of the area just beyond the current TAF period.

.FIRE WEATHER...
Issued at 336 AM CDT Tue Mar 12 2019

Very strong to extreme winds will develop across the area on
Wednesday which will result widespread extreme grassland fire danger
levels. Winds of this magnitude would typically support catastrophic
levels but expected rainfall should keep grasslands from reaching
higher end curing.
