NWS Omaha, NE wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Aug 9, 2:08 PM CST, 10 hours 2 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...COR TO DEWPOINT COMMENT NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OMAHA/VALLEY NE 308 PM CDT WED AUG 9 2006 .DISCUSSION... FORECAST CONCERNS CENTER AROUND TSTM CHANCES NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AND THEN OVER THE WEEKEND. LATEST SFC ANALYSIS SHOWS LOW PRESSURE CENTERED OVR SOUTH CENTRAL NEB WITH WARM FRONT EXTENDING EWD ACROSS EXTREME SERN NEB. ANOTHER AREA OF WEAK LOW PRESSURE SITS ACROSS N CNTRL NEB WITH A SECONDARY WARM FRONT EXTENDING NEWD INTO EXTREME SERN SD. SFC DEWPOINTS CONTINUE TO CLIMB THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE MID TO UPPER 70S AT MOST REPORTING SITES WITH THE EXCEPTION OF FAR SWRN COUNTIES WHERE THEY HAVE MIXED OUT MORE AND SFC TEMPS HAVE CLIMBED INTO THE UPPER 90S. UPPER LEVEL FEATURES OF NOTE INCLUDES 300MB JET SEGMENT MOVING ACROSS SRN SD AND MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE MOVING SEWD ACROSS THE NRN PLAINS. WE CONTINUE TO WATCH AREA OF ACCAS DEVELOPING IN CONVERGENCE AREA ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA AS WELL AS CONVECTION THAT HAS FORMED OVR CNTRL NEB. ANOTHER AREA OF CONCERN IS ACROSS FAR SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA WHERE ACCAS HAS BEEN DEVELOPING LAST FEW SAT PICS. FEEL THAT CNTRL NEB ACTIVITY SHOULD MOVE EWD INTO OUR REGION THIS EVENING...ABOVE STRONG CAP IN PLACE PER OBSERVED 18Z OAX AND LBF SOUNDINGS. THIS ACTIVITY IS CLOSER TO UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT AND FEEL THAT IT HAS THE BEST CHANCE OF SURVIVAL. INSTABILITY REMAINS QUITE STRONG WITH 4051 J/KG OFF 18Z OAX SOUNDING. STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE HIGH AND SHEAR IS FAVORABLE...WE ARE JUST MISSING A STRONG FORCING MECHANISM. SO WITH THE IDEA OF HIGH PLAINS CONVECTION SHIFTING EWD OVERNIGHT...THINK THAT ACTIVITY COULD CONTINUE INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS OVER FAR SERN NEB AND SWRN IA. WL CLEAN THINGS OUT BY MID MORNING. THURSDAY IS NOT A CLEAR CUT FORECAST BY ANY MEANS WITH LEFT OVER BOUNDARIES LIKELY DRAPED ACROSS THE AREA. WILL HAVE MORE UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT THAN TODAY WITH SHORTWAVE MID LEVEL TROF DROPPING OUT OF THE DAKOTAS. INSTABILITY WILL BE HIGH ONCE AGAIN AND SO HAVE A CONTINUED CHANCE OF TSTMS THROUGHOUT MUCH OF THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EVENING HOURS. FRIDAY LOOKS LIKE OUR DRY DAY AS DOES MUCH OF SATURDAY. BY LATE SATURDAY...NEXT FRONT BEGINS TO SLIDE SEWD INTO THE REGION AND MODELS ARE STILL HAVING SOME TIMING ISSUES WITH THIS FEATURE. PER NATIONAL GUIDANCE...WENT WITH FASTER 00Z ECMWF SOLUTION RATHER THAN THE SLOWER 00Z AND 12Z GFS. THIS WOULD PUT BULK OF PCPN ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA SUNDAY. WILL CARRY PCPN INTO EARLY PART OF MONDAY...THEN DRY AFTER THAT. && .OAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NE...NONE. IA...NONE. && GRIFFIS
