AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DODGE CITY KS
315 AM CDT FRI APR 6 2001

FORECAST CHALLENGES TODAY WILL BE TIMING OF SEVERE WEATHER TONIGHT
AND SUBSEQUENT VERY STRONG NON-CONVECTIVE WINDS BEHIND THE SQUALL
LINE.

MODEL SOLUTIONS HAVE SLOWED THE SPEED OF THE UPPER LOW BY ABOUT 6
HOURS AS COMPARED TO 24 HOURS AGO. THIS IN TURN SHOULD ALSO DELAY
THE ONSET OF THE STRONGEST WINDS BY ROUGHLY THE SAME AMOUNT OF TIME.
CURRENT MODEL SURFACE WIND SOLUTIONS SUGGEST MY WESTERN 1/3 COUNTIES
WILL REACH HIGH WIND WARNING CRITERIA LATE THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE
REST OF THE AREA REACHING WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA DURING THE
AFTERNOON....THEN THESE AREAS WILL REACH HIGH WIND WARNING LEVELS IN
THE EVENING. WILL GO WITH THIS CONSENSUS FOR THIS MORNING/S ZONES.

WITH THE SLIGHTLY SLOWER SPEED OF THE SYSTEM...THE DRY LINE WILL BE
FARTHER WEST AT THE PEAK HEATING OF THE DAY THAN PREVIOUSLY
ANTICIPATED...AND AS SUCH I WOULD EXPECT SPC/S NEXT DAY-1 OUTLOOK TO
HAVE THE SLIGHT AND MODERATE RISK AREAS A LITTLE FARTHER WEST AS
COMPARED TO THE MOST RECENT DAY-2 OUTLOOK. IF MY HUNCH IS
CORRECT...THAT WOULD PLACE ALL MY CWA UNDER A MODERATE RISK FROM
THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS EVENING. ONCE STORMS DEVELOP...AREAL
MOVEMENT SHOULD BE TOWARD THE EAST WITH CELL MOVEMENT JUST A LITTLE
EAST OF DUE NORTH. WITH AN ABUNDANCE OF MID TO HIGH LEVEL CLOUD
COVER TODAY...GUIDANCE TEMPS IN THE 70S APPEAR REASONABLE. DRIER DEW
POINTS SHOULD QUICKLY ENTER THE REGION AS THE DRY LINE GETS PULLED
QUICKLY EAST ACROSS THE AREA. HOWEVER...IMPRESSIVE WIND SPEEDS
SHOULD HELP KEEP THE BOUNDARY LAYER MIXED QUITE NICELY RESULTING IN
LESS OF AN INVERSION THAN ONE NORMALLY WOULD EXPECT. WILL GO WITH
LOW TEMPS HIGHER THAN GUIDANCE. THE ENTIRE AREA SHOULD EXPERIENCE
RAPID CLEARING SKIES AFTER THE STORMS END.

SATURDAY THE AREA SHOULD SEE PLENTY OF SUNSHINE WITH TEMPERATURES
COMPARABLE TO THOSE EXPECTED TODAY IN MOST AREAS.

LOOKS LIKE MY EARLIER HUNCH WAS SOMEWHAT CORRECT. AS OF 06Z NEW
DAY-1 OUTLOOK HAS SHIFTED MOD RISK WEST TO CO/KS LINE. BUT THERE IS
A NEW FEATURE FOR THE DAY SHIFT TO HAVE FUN WITH...AN ADDED HIGH
RISK POSITIONED ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF MY CWA.

EXTENDED DISCUSSION...

LATEST RUNS OF THE AVN AND ETA MODELS MOVE THE STRONG SURFACE LOW
INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION BY SATURDAY EVENING.  THE CENTRAL HIGH
PLAINS WILL BE UNDER WEAK UPPER LEVEL HIGH PRESSURE RIDGING THROUGH
12Z SUNDAY.  THINK THAT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL BE LIMITED SATURDAY
AFTERNOON AND NIGHT AS RETURN FLOW TAKES IT TO THE EAST OF THE CWA.
WILL TAKE OUT SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR SATURDAY NIGHT.

NOT REAL CONFIDENT ABOUT ANY POPS SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS IT APPEARS
BEST LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL STILL BE TO THE EAST AND SURFACE WINDS
SHOW A DOWNSLOPE COMPONENT.  THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE COULD WIND UP
FARTHER WEST HOWEVER AND WILL CONTINUE WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR
THUNDERSTORMS.  WILL ALSO RAISE TEMPERATURES MORE IN LINE WITH THE
CURRENT CCF NUMBERS.

PRELIMINARY GUIDANCE FOR COORDINATION ONLY. OFFICIAL FORECASTS ARE
CONTAINED WITHIN THE DODGE CITY ZONE FORECAST.
