.SHORT TERM...(Today through Thursday night)
Issued at 311 AM CST Tue Dec 20 2022

Water vapor imagery currently shows an upper impulse tracking
across the Lower Mississippi Valley with a more significant upper
trough extending from British Columbia into the Upper Mississippi
Valley. At the surface, cold front stretches from eastern IA
through Southeast KS with some Arctic air starting to spill into
the Northern Plains and making it down into Nebraska.

Shortwave energy will move into the Northern Great Lakes region
today while some more robust upper energy starts to dig over the
Pacific northwest this evening. Colder air will continue to slowly
sink south today and will allow below normal temps to be in place
with most readings not making it to the freezing mark. By Wed
morning upper trough will continue to dig from the Northern
Rockies into the Great Basin with this highly anomalous trough
expected to swing across the Plains late Wed night through Thu.

All models have sped up the timing of this trough from yesterday's
runs which has also resulted in the strong cold front moving
through faster. It is now looking like the front will be through
the forecast area by 12z Thu. This faster movement will also have
an affect on snow totals, with the 00z guidance coming-in with
lower amounts. These lower amounts fit with the synoptic setup
with the TROWAL setting up much further northeast and all of our
snow having to fall in only a few hour period Thu morning. So
confidence is increasing in advisory levels snows with most sites
in the 1-3 inch range. We will keep the winter storm watch going
however, because with the strong winds expected, we still could
see some serious reductions in visibility with blowing snow.

Confidence remains very high that we will eventually need a wind
chill warning for the entire area for Thu through at least Fri
morning. With this airmass we are looking at standardized
anomalies in the -3 to -4 range for Thu night and Fri. Highs on
Thu will be likely not make it out of the single digits.

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Monday)
Issued at 311 AM CST Tue Dec 20 2022

By Fri morning, deep upper trough will be digging over the Ohio
Valley with strong northwest flow aloft over the Plains. Winds
Fri will not be nearly as strong as Thu but will still be gusty
enough to produce very dangerous wind chills, especially during
the morning hours. There is some decent model agreement in some
weak upper energy quickly moving out into the Plains for Fri
night, but we are currently not expecting any precip with this.
Temps will slowly start to moderate this weekend and by Sun,
readings should be approaching the freezing mark with 40s possible
by the start of the next work week.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday afternoon)
Issued at 1148 AM CST Tue Dec 20 2022

IFR/MVFR cigs will continue to slowly erode from west to east with
some holes across portions of southeast KS. Clouds may be slowest
to diminish across far southeast KS where some MVFR cigs may
remain through the afternoon hours before redeveloping and
expanding across the area during the overnight and early morning
hours on Wed. MVFR cigs may linger through the day on Wed. Winds
will veer to the east and southeast and increase as we move
through the day on Wednesday becoming breezy with gusts over 25
knots across central Kansas.
