Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Dodge City KS
1149 PM CDT Sun Jul 12 2020

...Updated Short Term Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Monday evening)
Issued at 1142 PM CDT Sun Jul 12 2020

Ongoing thunderstorms for much of the CWA pushing southeastward
throughout the overnight hours. Severe winds have been the main
threat, especially further south in the storms in areas of better
instability and CAPE values from Dodge to the southwest counties
near Liberal. Expect these storms to diminish and exit the CWA
before sunrise with improving sky conditions behind the shortwave
driven storms. Some torrential downpours have also been a threat
with some flash flooding reports seeing up to an inch or so of
precipitation in the heaviest storms.

Otherwise, expect Monday morning low temperatures in the 60s to
near 70 into south central Kansas with afternoon highs pushing
into the mid to upper 90s and some over 100 degrees near the
Oklahoma state line from Liberal to Elkhart. Another round of
severe weather is expected with a similar setup with terrain
induced storms associated with another shortwave coming out of
eastern Colorado and northwest Kansas pushing into the CWA late in
the evening and into the overnight hours through early Tuesday
morning. With decent shear and high instability with CAPE values
exceeding 2-3k J/kg, expect the main threats to be with large hail
early in the life cycle to more of a damaging wind and flooding
threat as another MCS forms through the CWA after sunset Monday
night. These storms will once again last through the night ending
before sunrise Tuesday morning ahead of a cold front that will
push through later in the afternoon. Morning lows will once again
be mainly in the 60s and pushing into the low 70s into south
central portions of the state.

.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 344 PM CDT Sun Jul 12 2020

The cold front tied to a polar jet stream trough up north will push
south across Kansas on Tuesday. There are timing uncertainties, but
as of this forecast cycle, we will maintain mid-upper 90s for highs
Tuesday south of the Arkansas River with upper 80s to around 90 for
a high up along I-70. Yet another evening/late night MCS will
probably develop just north of the surface front Tuesday Night,
where dewpoints should be in the upper 60s to lower 70s. MCS outflow
Tuesday Night/early Wednesday will most certainly aid in pushing the
polar front south southwest Kansas during the day Wednesday. Moist,
post-frontal upslope will develop again Wednesday afternoon/evening
with more MCS activity Wednesday Night. Given this, nightly POPs of
20-40 percent will be in the forecast through mid-week. Much of
western Kansas could see a couple inches of rain out of the combined
multi-night MCS opportunities through Wednesday Night. The pattern
will start to change by Thursday, per latest global model signals,
with the summer subtropical ridge finally winning out and expanding
its influence across the southern and central Great Plains. This
should also transition our sensible weather into a hotter pattern
with more widespread 100+ degF afternoons possible (Thursday and
beyond).

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Monday night)
Issued at 1132 PM CDT Sun Jul 12 2020

VFR conditions for all TAF sites for the entirety of the period,
but low to mid level ceilings currently with thunderstorms rolling
through the CWA. There have been frequent outflowing gusts up to
30-40kts with the storms and some lower visibilities. These
should be east of all sites after 08-09Z. Otherwise, expect
continued broken ceilings in the mid to upper levels and lighter
southeast winds 10-12kts through the end of the period. Another
round of thunderstorms towards the end of the period if not after
will affect all TAF sites once again but still uncertainty of
timing of them.
