AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GOODLAND KS 253 PM MDT SUN JUN 10 2001 ...HOT TEMPS EXPECTED NEXT FEW DAYS... WL BE INTERESTING NEXT FEW DAYS IN TERMS OF TSTMS FOR GLD CWA. ALL INDICATIONS TODAY DID NOT SUPPORT DEVELOPMENT OF STORMS. HOWEVER...FEW STORMS HAVE FIRED ALONG NW-SE ORIENTATED BOUNDARY DRAPED ACROSS SW PARTS OF FA. ATMOSPHERE IS UNSTABLE AND OBVIOUSLY NO CAP AS PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT. AS STORMS HAVE BEEN MOVING OFF THIS BOUNDARY...THEY HAVE BEEN WEAKENING. WL CONTINUE TO MONITOR...BUT MODELS AND NEARBY SOUNDINGS DO NOT SUPPORT MUCH ACTIVITY BY 00Z. LOOKING AT SIGNIFICANT MID LVL CAP NEXT 2 DAYS OVER CWA. IF THESE TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST TOO WARM...THEN SLIGHT POSSIBILITIES EXIST FOR THUNDERSTORMS. A FEW THINGS TO CONSIDER INCLUDE STEEP LAPSE RATES...WEAK DISTURBANCES THAT BEGIN TO RIDE ACROSS WSW FLOW ALOFT AND DEWPOINTS. DO NOT FIND ANY QPF OR SIGNIFICANT LIFT NEXT 36-48 HRS AND WL GO ALONG WITH MODEL AGREEMENT ON 700MB TEMPS. THEREFORE...WL NOT MENTION TSTMS UNTIL TUESDAY NIGHT WHEN FRONT MOVES ACROSS FA AND MORE ENERGY MOVES IN FROM THE W. OTHERWISE... VERY WARM SFC TEMPS EXPECTED NEXT FEW DAYS BUT SHOULD FALL JUST SHORT OF RECORD HIGHS. LATER SHIFTS CAN LOOK AT THIS IF TEMPS SHOULD RISE INTO TRIPLE DIGITS. MORE BOUYANT AIRMASS AND DEEPER MOISTURE FOR WEDNESDAY...SO WL KEEP CHC FOR TSTMS...POSSIBLY LIKELY POPS E CWA. THEN DRY FORECAST LATER THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY AS SYSTEM PULLS AWAY FROM HI PLAINS. NO OTHER CHANGES AT THIS TIME. .GLD...NONE. KPL
