AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HASTINGS NE 214 PM CDT FRI JUN 24 2005 .DISCUSSION...FOCUS IS ON CONVECTION TONIGHT. AT MIDDAY...SURFACE BOUNDARY STRETCHED FROM ROUGHLY SIOUX CITY TO GOODLAND. MOISTURE CONTINUES TO POOL ALONG THE FRONT WHERE SURFACE DEWPOINTS AVERAGED 70F. ONGOING CONVECTION ACROSS NORTHERN NEBRASKA SHLD CONTINUE TO SUSTAIN THIS EVENING...AND CONVERGENCE ALONG FRONTAL BOUNDARY SHLD ALSO FOCUS ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT...THIS TIME FURTHER INTO OUR CWA. ALTHOUGH BETTER MOISTURE CONVERGENCE IS PROGGED ACROSS EASTERN NEBRASKA TONIGHT...EXPECT DECENT WESTWARD BACKBUILDING OF TSTMS GIVEN DIVERGENT THICKNESS PATTERN TO OUR EAST...AND STORMS COULD MERGE WITH HIGH PLAINS CONVECTION. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AVERAGE AN INCH AND A HALF AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE IN THE STRONGER STORMS. POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXIST AS SHEAR AND INSTABILITY PARAMETERS SUPPORT IDEA FOR SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT. TORNADO MENTION HAS BEEN MAINTAINED IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK ALONG THE BOUNDARY AND WHERE TEMPERATURE AND DEWPOINT SPREAD IS MINIMIZED. IF CONVECTION DEVELOPS AS EXPECTED...FRONT WILL PUSH SOUTH INTO SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA TONIGHT. SHOWERS AND A FEW TSTMS SHLD LINGER INTO SATURDAY...SIMLAR TO TODAY...AND AGREE WITH PREVIOUS SHIFT OF MAINTAINING PCPN CHANCES. NGM IS ACTUALLY RATHER ROBUST ON REDEVELOPMENT OF CONVECTION SATURDAY AFTN...BACKBUILDING STORMS INTO OUR CWA AGAIN IN DIVERGENT THICKNESS PATTERN TO THE EAST. THE NAM ALSO HINTS AT THIS...BUT NOT TO THE EXTENT OF THE NGM. POPS REMAIN LOW FOR NOW...BUT WILL BE SOMETHING TO WATCH. OTHERWISE...FRONT IS EXPECTED TO LIFT NORTH DURING THE DAY WITH STILL MILD AIRMASS IN PLACE AND TEMPS REMAIN NORMAL TO ABOVE...ALTHOUGH THIS WILL BE DEPENDENT ON WHERE BOUNDARY ENDS UP. SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT ENHANCES SUNDAY AS UPPER TROUGH MOVES FURTHER INLAND AND RIDGE RETROGRADES SLIGHTLY. TEMPERATURES WILL WARM AGAIN INTO THE 90S IN THIS REGIME. THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED...NOT A WHOLE LOT OF CHANGES WERE MADE AS MODELS DIVERGE ON TIMING OF SHORTWAVES AND FRONTS. THE ECMWF IS DEEPER AND SLOWER WITH PACIFIC NORTHWEST UPPER LOW NEXT WEEK COMPARED TO THE GFS. ALTHOUGH AM NOT CONFIDENT NEXT WEEK WILL REMAIN COMPLETELY DRY...AM ALSO NOT CONFIDENT IN PICKING A DAY THAT WILL BE OUR BEST CHANCE FOR PCPN. ATTM WILL GO WITH SILENT 14 POPS AND WAIT ANOTHER RUN OR TWO TO REFINE WHICH TIME FRAME LOOKS THE BEST. && .GID WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NE...NONE. KS...NONE. && FAY
