Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service North Platte NE
637 PM CDT Fri Jun 24 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 318 PM CDT Fri Jun 24 2022

Subtle mid level short wave noted over nrn UT this morning moving
eastward, while a more potent PV anomaly was moving into northwest
MT with an accompanying jet rounding the base of the larger upper
trough into wrn MT. Mid-level WV imagery showing moisture streaming
around the upper ridge located across the srn Plains, and broad
scale forcing located over the central Rockies. In addition,
convective complexes noted across nw MO and nrn MN. Two weak surface
lows, one over central SD/ND with a second over western KS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday night)
Issued at 318 PM CDT Fri Jun 24 2022

Short term highlights: Scattered thunderstorms will be possible
across portions of western and north central NE, though not everyone
will see beneficial rainfall. Severe storms will be possible with
any that develop with greatest impacts from damaging wind and large
hail and mainly west of highway 61.

The subtle short wave mentioned earlier is expected to become more
influenced by the upper trough to the west and begin to move more
northeasterly and once it encounters better moisture and instability
across the Plains will affect two areas of surface-based boundaries:
1) a weak trough or wind shift stalled across the middle of NE and
2) along an advancing cold front to move through the area during the
overnight. Both boundaries will be locations for thunderstorm
development as a result, and areas of storms will have the potential
to produce damaging wind gusts and large hail. Initial development
make be more discrete and capable of large hail, while the storms
that develop along the front will have damaging winds as the main
threat.

The initial storms along the sfc trough will likely struggle as dry
air entrainment will be likely in the presence of weak shear
initially. However if enough forcing remains then would expect at
least a couple storms to evolve into something more supercellular.
These would be capable of large hail good anvil level storm relative
flow and elongated hodographs would support that in the presence of
ML CAPE 2000J/kg or better. The final push of storms will come with
the Pacific front which should move through by midnight or so. Then
a stronger cold front will push through from north to south
overnight.

Saturday will be much cooler and below average for this time of
year. Skies should clear through the morning and with good
insolation with steep lapse rates in place by afternoon, would
expect a fair amount of cumulus development., however a dry forecast
is in place. Skies should clear again with the approach of sunset
Saturday night leaving a mostly clear by cool night in store for the
much of the area. The expection could be in the far southwest where
residual cloud cover from precipitation over the higher terrain
further west.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Friday)
Issued at 318 PM CDT Fri Jun 24 2022

Long term highlights: A return of much warmer temps again by midweek
with mainly dry conditions prevailing. Precipitation chances
increase again Wed night through the end of the week with temps
at or slightly above average.

Sunday will be another cool, dry day with below average temps for
this time of the year in the 70s, and lighter winds than Saturday.
Low level moisture will remain low so with good radiational cooling
potential, Sunday night will set up to be another cool night wil
lows 5-10 degrees below average for this time of year.

The aforementioned upper trough will move from the northern Plains
eastward to the upper Midwest before exiting into southeastern
Canada. The mid-range (Monday-Wednesday) period will be
characterized by building upper heights across the wrn CONUS with
the ridge axis building into the central Rockies by midweek. This
will mean a return to hot and dry conditions, with temperatures
rising more abruptly Monday, back to near average for this time of
year, then to above average again by Tuesday and Wednesday, nearing
the century mark again Wed in some spots. Little rain is expect in
this period as large scale subsidence will inhibit widespread
precipitation development. The front moving through tonight will
drive low level moisture well south also and will be held in place
in the southern Plains thanks to an expansive surface high across
the south eastward to the Atlantic Coast. Winds will become
southerly but low level moisture return will be slow, despite a
favorable setup for the classic Plains LLJ formation each night.

From Wednesday night and beyond, precipitation chances will increase
as a favorable pattern looks to become established that would bring
monsoonal moisture into the area. Ensemble clustering suggests broad
ridging across the southern half of the CONUS centered over the
southern Plains. While there are differences in deterministic
solutions that brings confidence precip amounts and timing,
confidence in the pattern shift is good. High temps in this period
would remain above average for this time of year and should hold
mainly in the upper 80s to mid 90s, though if the monsoon
moisture evolves as thought, cloud cover may yield somewhat cooler
temps closer to average. Therefore a relection in confidence in
the temp forecast is also low as the envelope/range of the 25 to
75th percentiles of temps in the Thursday-Friday time frame is
large.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Saturday evening)
Issued at 629 PM CDT Fri Jun 24 2022

A line of scattered thunderstorms across the Sandhills will
continue to move eastward through the evening hours. Storms are
slow moving and may produce locally heavy rainfall that could
impact visibilities. Thunderstorm activity is expected to move out
of the area after midnight. Winds will shift from the south to the
north this evening as the front passes, winds will remain gusty
with wind gust of 25 kts, stronger winds within thunderstorms.
MVFR conditions may be possible within stronger thunderstorms and
a brief period of MVFR conditions will be possible at KVTN in the
morning.

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of western and
north central Nebraska.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

There is a slight risk for severe thunderstorm develop this
evening through 3 am CDT Saturday along and east of a line from
Gordon, in Sheridan County to Whitman, in Grant County, to Paxton
in Keith County and Stockville in Frontier County. The primary
threats from severe storms will be large hail and damaging winds.

A weak surface trough extending from near Valentine southwest will
be the initial focus for thunderstorm development. This evening as
a cold front moves east across western Nebraska additional
thunderstorm development is expected to form in a broken line of
thunderstorms that may extend from near Valentine southwest to
Thedford, Tryon and Imperial. The line of storms will then move
eastward across western Nebraska into the north central, and exit
east overnight around 3 am CT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

No hazardous weather is expected at this time.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Please relay any information about observed severe weather to the
