Area forecast discussion, Jan 27, 11:40 PM CST, 3 hours 50 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service North Platte NE 1140 PM CST Sun Jan 27 2019 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday night) Issued at 355 PM CST Sun Jan 27 2019 The primary forecast challenges through Monday include wind and temperatures. An Arctic cold front ushers in winter-like and blustery conditions, setting the stage for a High Wind event. Temperatures surged well into the 50s for most of the area and even lower 60s in a few spots today due to bouts of sunshine, fairly deep mixing, downslope flow, and modest WAA in the low levels. The first cold front is progged to enter northwest Neb around 00z with the second, stronger front entering the CWA around 06z and exiting by 12z Monday. The combination of strong low level forcing, moisture convergence, and waves of energy invof H7 low should keep rain and snow showers across the Sandhills this evening through Monday afternoon. Not expecting much in accumulation as coverage will be scattered and overall moisture is relatively limited, although can't rule out a dusting along/north of Hwy 20. The main threat with this system is wind. Guidance is in agreement with a potential high wind event with gusts to 60 mph across the Sandhills. H7 flow of 60+ kts and H85 flow of 50+ kts will easily be transported toward the surface tonight with the help of mechanical mixing along the fronts, momentum transfer via snow showers, and a PV anomaly crossing the area (the 1.5 surface near H5). In addition, surface pressure rises in north central Neb approach 2mb/hr. Expanded the High Wind Warning to Deuel Co and issued an SPS for southwest Neb for gusts to 50 mph. Nudged max temps lower for Monday as H85 temps plummet to -10C or colder under mostly cloudy skies and continued blustery northwest winds. Wind chill values drop below zero across the northern half of the forecast area this morning with lows (air temp) in the mid/upper teens. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 355 PM CST Sun Jan 27 2019 Bitterly cold temperatures will affect the Northern Plains and Great Lakes region Tuesday through Thursday as a strong Polar Vortex rotates into the Great Lakes Region. Across western and north central Nebraska, the coldest temperates will push in Tuesday night into Wednesday. Gust northwest winds on Tuesday from 20 to 35 mph will produce wind chills during the day will produce wind chill values as low as 10 to 15 below. Actual high temperatures will contrast from 5 above at Butte to 34 at Imperial. here is a slight chance for light snow Tuesday morning Sheridan and Cherry counties, as a weakening vort max on the western side of the upper low lingers. A breezy northwest wind Tuesday evening will lower to 5 to 10 mph toward daybreak Wednesday. Will lows falling to around 15 below northeast, corresponding wind chills of 20 below or colder are possible east of a Gordon through Mullen through Broken Bow line. Wind chills as cold as 35 below are possible across far northeastern areas. Therefore a wind chill advisory and warning remains possible across the northeast half of the area Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. On Wednesday, surface wind become light southerly, but this has little effect on a warmup. Highs limited to only 2 above at Butte to 30 at Imperial. Not as cold Wednesday night across the west as southerly winds continue and mid and high clouds increase. Lows from the mid teens western Sandhills to around zero far northeast (where wind chills may still reach 15 below). Much warmer Thursday, as an upper ridge across the western U.S. builds into the region. Westerly winds and increased sunshine return highs to the mid 40s west to low 30s far northeast. Mild weather continues Friday and Saturday. This to occur as the Polar Vortex lifts into Eastern Canada and and upper trough digs into the Western U.S. This will bring zonal flow Friday and southwesterly flow aloft on Saturday. Highs Friday warm to low 50s west and mid 40s northeast, and continue on Saturday. A cold front fracas to move in Saturday night, cooling highs for next Sunday to the mid 30s to mid 40s. There is also a slight chance for light rain Sunday afternoon. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Monday night) Issued at 1139 PM CST Sun Jan 27 2019 High winds will be the main aviation concern across western and north central Nebraska over the next 24 hours.
