Severe Thunderstorm Warning 82, NWS Goodland, KS

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Goodland KS
523 PM MDT Sun Jun 5 2022

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday Morning)
Issued at 1251 PM MDT Sun Jun 5 2022

The main story for the short term period will be the multiple days
of severe weather potential. SPC has an Enhanced risk of severe
weather along and east of Highway 25 with a slight risk to the west.
Recent CAMS indicate initiation across Kit Carson and Cheyenne (CO)
between 19-21Z. RAP forecast soundings indicate a very unstable air
mass developing with 2500-3500 j/kg of MLCAPE and ~4000 j/kg of
MUCAPE. MUCAPE of this magnitude plus 0-6 wind shear of 35-45 knots
will support the potential for hail greater than 2 inches in
diameter. The storms will grow upscale into a cluster after 6pm MT,
as a bowing segment will develop across eastern portions of the
area with 70+ mph winds possible. A tornado threat is possible,
especially during the early evening hours as the LLJ begins to
ramp up, but am currently expecting any potential tornado threat
to be confined to any storm mergers and boundary ingestion
(similar to last night) with a quick spin up possible. The severe
storms are expected to be out of the CWA around 10pm MT.

Monday, the active weather continues across the area as a warm front
moves northward out of Oklahoma into the area which will allow moist
air to advect into the CWA. A shortwave comes out of the Rockies
which will be the focus for storms during the afternoon hours, with
again with severe potential as large hail, damaging winds and some
tornadoes possible. The tornado potential will look to be along
the warm front. The strong moisture advection will also lead to
the potential for some flash flooding concerns, especially for
areas that has received the most rainfall over the pas few days.
High temperatures for the day are currently forecasted to be in
the 80s across the entire area along with overnight lows falling
into the 50s.

Into Tuesday, yet another chance for thunderstorms exists as another
wave moves into the area as an MCS develops. This will again bring
the potential for more flash flooding concerns, dependent on
where the heaviest rainfall falls the previous days. There is
currently some uncertainty with how widespread and the magnitude
the severe potential will be as convection/lingering cloud cover
will more than likely remain present during the morning hours.
Currently, the main threats look to be large hail and damaging
winds along with the heavy rainfall potential.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Sunday)
Issued at 1251 PM MDT Sun Jun 5 2022

The long term period starts out with northwesterly flow as a weak
ridge remains across the western CONUS. Moisture will still be
present across the area, but the potential doesn't look as good for
widespread showers and storms for the area, however isolated to
widely scattered precipitation still looks to be a possibility.
High temperatures for Wednesday are currently forecasted to be
cooler in the 70s across the area as cloud cover is anticipated
to last throughout the day.

Thursday, the same synoptic pattern remains with the exception of
a stronger shortwave being present within the overall flow.
Showers and storms will be possible, with a chance for severe
again returning to the area during the afternoon and evening
hours. Confidence is not overly high at this time to pinpoint
exact hazards and locations for the severe potential but at this
time it appears that some risk does exist. Warmer temperatures
return as high temperatures are forecasted to be in the 80s along
with breezy southerly winds with gusts of 25-35 mph.

The latter portion of the extended period has the ridge over the
western CONUS amplifying a bit as high pressure builds into the SW
portion of the country. Depending on how far north the high pressure
can make it into the CWA will dictate any further shower and storm
chances as guidance indicates the potential for some additional
disturbances moving off of the Rockies and into the plains. An even
warmer trend is expected to begin in part to the high pressure with
highs in the 80s before the potential for 90s returns by next
Sunday.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday evening)
Issued at 520 PM MDT Sun Jun 5 2022

Currently watching storms move into SW Nebraska from the Nebraska
Panhandle, the anticipation is they will become severe as they
move into the KMCK terminal near 01Z, will continue watching
trends for any changes of speed as they approach the terminal.
Confidence continues to wane if KGLD will see storms so will keep
VCTS as the best forcing for storms enters the area. Storms will
exit the area around 03Z as wins will turn to the SSE before
becoming more northerly towards the end of the period.
