NWS Omaha, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 28, 12:50 AM CST, 10 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OMAHA/VALLEY NE 150 AM CDT TUE JUN 28 2005 .DISCUSSION... THE CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS IS THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERN. ONGOING SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS MORNING IN A COUPLE OF AREAS. FROM THE OMAHA METRO SOUTH...STORMS FIRED ON OUTFLOW FROM EARLIER CONVECTION AND ALONG SURFACE WARM FRONT. INTERSECTION OF THESE FEATURES CAUSED MOST POTENT STORM OVER CASS COUNTY...WHICH THEN PRODUCED MORE OUTFLOW-DRIVEN STORMS NEAR IT. SECOND ARC OF SEVERE STORMS FROM NORTHEAST NEBRASKA INTO WEST CENTRAL IOWA WAS FIRING IN AREA OF ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE NORTH OF SURFACE FRONT. AND MORE STORMS WERE SPREADING FROM CENTRAL NEBRASKA INTO THE WESTERN CWA. ALL OF THESE AREAS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO SPAWN STORMS PAST SUNRISE...BUT SEVERITY SHOULD DECREASE AS LOW LEVEL JET WEAKENS. WILL CONTINUE WITH AT LEAST SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS FOR THIS MORNING ACROSS ALL OF THE CWA. WHETHER STORMS WILL REDEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON IS IN QUESTION. LATEST MODEL DATA SUGGESTS A POSSIBILITY...BUT THINK ATMOSPHERE WILL BE WORKED OVER ENOUGH TO DELAY GREATER POTENTIAL UNTIL LATE IN THE DAY. WHERE SURFACE BOUNDARIES WILL FOCUS CONVECTION WILL HAVE TO BE WORKED OUT AFTER MORNING CONVECTION IS OVER...BUT LOOKING AT LARGE SCALE FEATURES POINTS TO NORTHEAST NEBRASKA BEING UNDER THE GUN FOR MORE SEVERE STORMS NEAR NORTHWARD MOVING SURFACE BOUNDARY AND PEAK HEATING. WILL INTRODUCE POPS THERE FOR THIS AFTERNOON. NEXT COLD FRONT WILL ROLL INTO THE PLAINS LATE TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. MODELS CONTINUE TO POINT NORTH OF THE CWA FOR BEST CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS. WILL CONTINUE THE CHANCE FOR PRECIP ACROSS ALL OF THE CWA ON WEDNESDAY...THINKING STRONGER STORMS WILL FIRE IN SOUTHEAST ZONES WHERE FRONT WILL BE SWEEPING THROUGH DURING AFTERNOON HEATING. COOLER WEATHER SLATED BEHIND THIS FRONT FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK WITH RELATIVELY DRY WEATHER. HAVE LEFT FORECAST ALONE FOR THE WEEKEND. MODELS STILL SHOWING NEXT FRONT SWEEPING INTO THE PLAINS SUNDAY NIGHT OR MONDAY...WHERE CURRENTLY HAVE NEXT CHANCE FOR RAIN. HAVE CONTINUED TREND OF WARMING TEMPERATURES AHEAD OF THIS FRONT. .OAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NE...NONE. IA...NONE. && DERGAN
