Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service North Platte NE
638 PM CDT Tue Jun 7 2022

.UPDATE...
Issued at 635 PM CDT Tue Jun 7 2022

Updated to clear Cherry, Sheridan, Garden, and Deuel counties from
the Severe Thunderstorm Watch. Currently tracking supercells in
Custer county and Perkins counties with a cluster of storms in
Grant and Arthur counties. Storms continue to make good time
moving southeast across the region and look to move out of the
region in another hour or two.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This afternoon through Wednesday night)
Issued at 1217 PM CDT Tue Jun 7 2022

A complex convective environment has evolved across central and western
Nebraska this morning with multiple boundaries across the region and
clouds across southwest Nebraska inhibiting surface destabilization and
likely creating a differential heating boundary. The primary synoptic
frontal boundary is draped generally along the Nebraska/Kansas border
with a lee trof well off to our west. Expect Short wave energy evident
in water vapor imagery will spill down from the northern Rockies and
initiate convection along the lee trof upstream as is happening
currently across northeast Wyoming. This activity will grow upscale and
work its way through the panhandle and start entering the western
portion of our area late this afternoon. 0-3km bulk shear vectors
around 30kt largely orthogonal to the lee trof and long curved
hodographs shown in Bufkit will support discrete supercells with steep
lapse rates and ample CAPE supporting a severe wind/hail threat. Best
potential for landspouts with convective initiation looks to lie just
off to our northwest but will monitor closely. As the initial discrete
cells move in from the west, the convective environment will offer
greater amounts of instability and shear to the south closer to the
synoptic boundary. Expect all severe threats to include big hail,
damaging winds, and perhaps a tornado will be in play as the convective
threat transitions to locations south of highway 92 by early this
evening with discrete cells merging into clusters and eventually moving
off to our southeast as an MCS.

Once the Convection slides off to our southeast this evening, expect
generally dry conditions for the overnight though a lingering shower or
two may be possible early. Wednesday looks quiet and dry with high
pressure moving across the High Plains, followed by a chance of
showers/possibly some thunder Wednesday night as the high pushes off to
our east and return flow brings a warm front up into the region.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday)
Issued at 1217 PM CDT Tue Jun 7 2022

The warm front will linger over the region on Thursday and serve as a
focus for convection as a good amount of short wave energy undercuts
the temporarily flattening ridge over the Rockies. Expect instability
will surge during the afternoon and soundings on Bufkit show
considerable CAPE in the hail growth zone along with steep lapse rates
in the boundary layer, so a severe hail/wind threat will be present
into Thursday night.

Thereafter, ensemble guidance continues to amplify the upper ridge over
the western US with well above normal temperatures through the weekend.
However short wave energy undercutting the ridge combined with the lee
trof east of the Rockies will prevent a dry forecast with at least a
chance for some showers and thunderstorms through Monday. A deep trof
will then move into the PacNW early next week with cooler temperatures
closer to normal making their way in from the northwest on
Tuesday.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening)
Issued at 633 PM CDT Tue Jun 7 2022

Thunderstorms are expected to continue through the evening hours
becoming more widespread overnight. Severe thunderstorms are likely
with very large hail and damaging winds as the primary threats.
Visibility reductions should be expected in heavy rainfall from
these storms as well. Improving conditions are expected after
Midnight CDT lasting through Wednesday morning. Some strong winds
could also be possible in the afternoon across KVTN with northwest
gusts up to 22 knots.
