...THE FLASH FLOOD WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1230 AM CDT FOR
HITCHCOCK COUNTY...

At 1027 PM CDT, precipitation is ending across the warned area. 
Radar estimates up to three inches of rain have already fallen, with 
heavy rain occurring over a large area that drains into Frenchman 
creek. The runoff from the heavy rain will continue to create flash 
flooding, especially in low lying and poorly drained locations.

HAZARD...Flash flooding caused by heavy rain.

SOURCE...Radar indicated.

IMPACT...Flooding of small creeks and streams, urban areas, 
         highways, streets and underpasses as well as other drainage 
         and low lying areas.

Some locations that will experience flooding include...
Trenton, Culbertson, Palisade and Stratton. 

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the
dangers of flooding.

Excessive runoff from heavy rainfall will cause flooding of small
creeks and streams, country roads, farmland, and other low lying
spots.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Goodland KS
534 PM MDT Tue Jun 2 2020

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 1235 PM MDT Tue Jun 2 2020

Tonight...strong to severe thunderstorms are expected to
continue through this evening then dissipate by midnight. Low
temperatures fall into the mid 50s to mid 60s.

Wednesday-Wednesday night...another round of showers and
thunderstorms are expected to move into the northwest 1/2 to 1/3 of
the area in the mid to late afternoon hours from the northwest,
continuing southeast across the remainder of the area through about
midnight. Good upper jet support to keep the storms going after dark
and we could see an MCS type event or organized convective cluster.
High temperatures will be cooler compared to the past few days with
readings in the upper 80s to low 90s. Low temperatures are expected
to be in the mid 50s to low 60s.

Thursday-Thursday night...as has been the case the past few days we
will have another chance of afternoon and evening thunderstorms as
another weather disturbance moves through under northwest flow
aloft. High temperatures warm back up into the low to upper 90s. Low
temperatures remain mild for this time of year with mid 50s to mid
60s.

Friday...at present time it appears that we'll be thunderstorm free
during the day but will have to watch the far western/northwest
fringes closely as GFS advertising another disturbance approaching
per 700-500mb relative humidity. High temperatures reach the mid 90s
to around 100.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 155 PM MDT Tue Jun 2 2020

Not much has changed from yesterday's discussion. The models are
still showing an upper-level ridge building over the High Plains.
With it, an upper-level close low will move up the west side of the
ridge, from the SOCAL coast, and become an open wave by the time it
reached the top of the axis.

Towards the end of the period, this ridge will continue to move
eastward while a low/trough moves into the Rockies region, from the
PACNORWEST, behind it, along with its associated surface front.

This pattern will produce mostly hot (middle to upper 90) and dry
conditions for the period with the exception of Saturday, were we
could see showers and thunderstorms related to the open wave, and
Monday, were the showers and thunderstorms will be associated with
the front. In addition, highs on Tuesday will drop into the lower
80s behind the front.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening)
Issued at 534 PM MDT Tue Jun 2 2020

Vfr conditions are forecast for both KGLD and KMCK terminals
through the TAF period. That being said, both terminals could see
thunderstorms through approximately 03 or 04z which could produce
sub-vfr conditions, strong winds, and even large hail. Cloud
cover will linger through the evening as storms persist then
dissipate in the region. Clearer skies should return by midday
Wednesday before another round of storms and clouds develops in
the late afternoon.

Wind will generally be from the north tonight around 10 to 15
knots (with higher gusts at KGLD in the evening). However, wind
speed and direction may be impacted by nearby thunderstorm
activity. Light winds shift to the east Wednesday morning, then to
the southeast in the afternoon.

...SIGNIFICANT WEATHER ADVISORY FOR SOUTHEASTERN YUMA COUNTY IN
NORTHEASTERN COLORADO AND NORTHERN CHEYENNE COUNTIES IN NORTHWESTERN
KANSAS UNTIL 630 PM MDT/730 PM CDT/...

At 617 PM MDT/717 PM CDT/, Doppler radar was tracking a strong
thunderstorm 9 miles west of St. Francis, moving north at 20 mph.

Penny size hail and wind gusts up to 50 mph will be possible with
this storm.

Locations impacted include...
St. Francis, Beecher Island and Wheeler.

This includes Highway 385 between mile markers 231 and 235.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Torrential rainfall is also occurring with this storm, and may lead

If you see an advancing wall of dust, do not drive into it. Blowing
dust can quickly reduce visibility which can result in deadly traffic
accidents, chain collisions and massive pileups.
