Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service North Platte NE
220 PM CDT Sat Jun 4 2022

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Sunday night)
Issued at 220 PM CDT Sat Jun 4 2022

Early afternoon satellite imagery continues to show a good amount of
sunshine across central and western Nebraska. However expect convective
trends will be on the upswing as we head into this evening as
instability pools along and ahead of a frontal boundary draped across
northern Nebraska. It will likely take until early this evening to
erode the cap and forcing is not very robust, but hodographs near the
front are nicely curved in the low levels, mid/upper lapse rates are
steep, and DCAPE values are elevated across southwest Nebraska.
Expected evolution of convection is for isolated/widely scattered
storms to form along the boundary which will generally be along/south of
highway 2, then grow upscale with coverage remaining scattered and
eventually cluster up and develop into a convective complex across
southeastern Nebraska early tonight. 40kts of 0-6 bulk shear looks
sufficient to support organized updrafts in some of the discrete storms
with significant CAPE in the hail growth zone to generate primary
severe threats of large hail and damaging wind from roughly 7PM until
around Midnight when convection slides off to our southeast and
consolidates. However will also have to monitor convective trends
upstream across SD as there are indications for an MCS to develop aided
by a bit of a low level jet and brush along the NE/SD border late
tonight/early Sunday morning with potential for hail/wind.

The cold pool associated with the MCS diving down into eastern Nebraska
will give a good push to the frontal boundary and drive southward into
Nebraska on Sunday as a dryline surges eastward during the afternoon. A
combination of interaction between the dryline, lingering frontal
boundary, and residual cold pool boundaries from earlier convection will
trigger thunderstorm development again late Sunday afternoon/evening.
The best instability will reside off to our southeast and support
development of another MCS across southeast Nebraska into Kansas Sunday
evening. However, an axis of unstable air will reside along the
lingering frontal boundary with enough boundary layer shear to support
at least widely scattered cells with good updrafts and a threat for
large hail and damaging winds. The convective threat Sunday evening
will be over by Midnight with lingering showers/thunder overnight
Sunday night.

.LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday)
Issued at 220 PM CDT Sat Jun 4 2022

A good surge of jet energy will push through the low amplitude upper
ridge and work with the lingering frontal boundary draped across
western Nebraska to trigger another round of thunderstorms late Monday
afternoon and evening. One convective complex looks to develop late in
the day and move across western/southwestern Nebraska, while another
complex develops and moves across SD and into eastern Nebraska Monday
night. There looks to be enough overlap of good shear and limited
instability to support a marginal severe threat across western Nebraska
but the better threat will reside off to our southwest where synoptic
forcing is expected to be more robust.

Thereafter, ensemble guidance is in good agreement in keeping the quasi
zonal progressive flow regime across the nation with gradual
amplification of an eastern trof/western ridge through late next week.
Expect the net result will be cool temperatures and active weather with
a good chance for showers and thunderstorms continuing each day through
the middle of next week, followed by a trend toward warmer temperatures
and a bit less active weather heading into next weekend.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Sunday afternoon)
Issued at 1240 PM CDT Sat Jun 4 2022

Quiet conditions expected through mid-afternoon before convection is
expected by late afternoon and into evening. Some thunderstorms may
be severe with large hail and strong winds as the primary threats.
Visibility reductions should be expected in heavy rainfall from
these storms. Storms move out of the area by Sunday morning with a
return of quieter weather again through 18Z Sunday. Additional
thunderstorm chances are expected Sunday afternoon and evening.
