Area Forecast Discussion

658 PM CDT Sat Jul 16 2022

...Update to aviation forecast discussion...

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 248 PM CDT Sat Jul 16 2022

Key Points:

- Heat builds again middle and late week, heat indices in the mid
90s to mid 100s most days

- Showers and storms tonight, otherwise mostly dry for the next week

Temperatures have stayed a bit cooler so far this afternoon thanks
to persistent cloud cover. Current temperatures are only in the 80s
for most, with a few readings near 90 south of I-70. This has kept
heat indices manageable, staying generally in the 90s so far. The
widespread clouds, along with a few embedded showers, are a remnant
of convection last night across Colorado, moving along our
stationary frontal boundary along I-70. Another factor keeping these
showers going is a shortwave trough moving southeast over Nebraska,
around the periphery of the strong ridge over the southern tier of
the CONUS. This shortwave will approach the area overnight tonight,
bringing in a weakening round of additional showers and storms south
from Nebraska late evening. Convection should be increasingly
elevated with time and southern extent. So while some gusty winds or
small hail can't be ruled out, the risk for strong to severe storms
drops off away from the Nebraska border. Showers and weak
thunderstorms will continue through the remainder of the area after
midnight through early Sunday morning, bringing some light but still
needed rainfall.

Underneath the influence of the upper trough, temperatures tomorrow
will remain near average. A warming trend resumes Monday and
especially Tuesday as ridging rebuilds ahead of a stronger trough
moving into the Northern Plains. This trough will amp WAA ahead of
it, boosting 850 mb temperatures into the 26-29 C range by Tuesday.
Given the dry conditions and a modest pressure gradient ahead of a
surface front, there should be deep mixing that boosts high
temperatures into the low 100s across most of the area. Dewpoints
may only be in the mid 60s though, which will keep heat indices near
or just slightly above actual air temperatures. The weak front will
knock down temps a few degrees Wednesday, but warm conditions with
highs in the mid to upper 90s will continue through Friday.
Underneath the eastern half of the strong upper ridge, precipitation
chances will remain low, though can't rule out a few showers or
storms mid-week with weak shortwaves moving through the northwest
flow aloft.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Sunday evening)
Issued at 655 PM CDT Sat Jul 16 2022

Expect VFR conditons through most of the next 24 hours. There is a
chance for thunderstorms across the terminals between 6Z through
11Z SUN. If a thunderstorm moves over the terminal, then there
may be a brief reduction in visibility down to MVFR categories due
to the heavier rainfall with any thunderstorm.
