SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA/NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE
340 PM CDT WED JUN 13 2001

FRONT APPEARS TO HAVE FINALLY STALLED ACROSS CENTRAL CWFA...
BASICALLY ALONG A LINE FROM PALMER...TO KGRI...JUNIATA...AND
THEN TO BLOOMINGTON.

THE CONCERN IS CONVECTION TONIGHT...WHERE AND WHEN. FRONT WILL
HOLD STEADY TONIGHT...AND BE FOCUS FOR CONVECTION. BELIEVE AREAS
JUST TO NORTHEAST OF CWFA MAY SEE THINGS FIRE FIRST. BACK BUILDING
POSSIBLE...WITH CAPPING LIMITING SOUTHERN CWFA DEVELOP. ONCE SURFACE
LOW STARTS CHURNING IN SOUTHWEST KANSAS AREA IN RESPONSE TO UPPER
WAVE MOVING...AND LOW LEVEL STRONG LOW LEVEL JET KICKS IN...MUCH OF
CWFA WILL ERUPT INTO WIDESPREAD STORMS FOR THE OVERNIGHT. SEVERE
STORMS POSSIBLE...BUT TORNADO THREAT SEEMS TO BE DURING THE EVENING
HOURS...IF STORMS GET GOING THEN. RECENT HOT AND DRY TREND PRECLUDES
ANY ISSUANCE OF FFA FOR REGION.

LATEST MESOETA NOW MOVES UPPER LOW JUST A TOUCH FURTHER NORTH
ON THURSDAY...BUT AT ABOUT THE SAME SPEED. SOUTHERN CWFA WILL
BE IN DRY SLOT...AND COULD WARM NICELY WITH STRONG WEST FLOW.
WILL DROP OZF TEMPS JUST A BIT BUT AT LEAST AT GUIDANCE LEVELS
THERE. NORTHERN AREAS IN CLOUDS BEFORE BREAKING OUT...AND COOLER
TEMPERATURE ZONE. 60S LIKELY NORTHWEST ZONES. STILL A CHANCE
FOR SHOWERS/STORMS AND BELIEVE SEVERE THREAT WILL BE JUST TO
OUR NORTHEAST. WILL BE MAKING MINOR ADJUSTMENTS TO OZF POPS
THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT.

WARM...WEST FLOW FRIDAY SHOULD LEAD TO MILD TEMPERATURES UNDER
SUNSHINE.

.GID...NONE.
