AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Hastings NE
624 PM CDT Sat Aug 7 2021

...Aviation Update...

.DISCUSSION...(This evening through Saturday)
Issued at 234 PM CDT Sat Aug 7 2021

The main focus in this forecast package is the threat for severe
convection this evening.

Currently, satellite and radar showers and non severe thunderstorms
continuing to percolate in areas near of just north of Interstate
80. Meanwhile areas to the south and west are mostly cloud-free
at this point, which should provide ample heating to promote
convective development late this afternoon and evening. MLCAPE
values are expected to be on the order of 2500-3500J/kg by 6pm.
Shear is not off the charts by any means, but 30-35kts will be
sufficient for organized severe updrafts.

Initially, we are still anticipating two areas for convective
development. Firstly, high-res CAMs suggest development along the
weak cold front setting along our western periphery...roughly from
McCook up to Broken Bow. This activity will likely be very slow to
move off of the front due to shear vectors remaining largely
parallel to the front. Secondly, many models, including the last
several runs of the HRRR, show convection developing near or just
south of the KS/NE state line then rapidly expanding into one or
more line segments across the southeastern half of the area. With
this area being mostly cloud-free currently, this certainly seems
like a reasonable solution.

Severe convection will likely push east of the area by around
midnight, with only a few lingering showers and storms into early
Sunday morning. The rest of the day on Sunday should be dry and high
temperatures should push back into the 90s as we see rising heights
aloft. The warm pattern then continues on Monday, with the NAM and
EC even showing some areas approaching 100 degrees. Heat index
values are currently forecast to be sub-advisory (105 degrees) for
most areas, but it will be close in our south and east.

Additional chances for thunderstorms arrive Monday evening as an
upper low moves over the northern Plains and a surface cold front is
pushed into the area. Chances for thunderstorms linger on Tuesday as
well before the front departs. Temperatures are expected to remain
above normal (though not excessively so) through the rest of the
week. Daily highs are forecast to be in the upper 80s to 90s. The
rest of the week is also expected to remain largely dry, although we
will have to monitor another frontal passage in the Thursday-
Friday timeframe.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z KGRI/KEAR TAFS through 00Z Monday)
Issued at 619 PM CDT Sat Aug 7 2021

Thunderstorms developing over northern Kansas will quickly spread
northeastward over the next 1-2 hours. This may briefly impact
the terminal vicinities...especially GRI in the 01-03Z timeframe.

Skies will clear out on Sunday morning, with mostly clear skies
expected through the afternoon with light/variable winds.
