AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OMAHA/VALLEY NE 405 PM CDT MON JUN 5 2006 .DISCUSSION... CONVECTION COVERAGE/EVOLUTION THROUGH TONIGHT IS THE MAIN CHALLENGE THIS FORECAST. A SECONDARY CONCERN IS FRONTAL TIMING NEXT SATURDAY AND BEYOND. RAPID CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT IS CURRENTLY TAKING PLACE ALONG A COLD FRONT AND LEAD TROF ERN SD THRU N CENTRAL TO SW NEBRASKA. GOOD HEATING HAS TAKEN PLACE FROM THIS AREA INTO NORTHEAST NEB. SEVERE WX POTENTIAL IS STRONGEST IN THIS AREA...MAINLY HAIL AND WINDS. SHEAR APPEARS MARGINAL...THERE ARE NO STRONG OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES IN THE AREA AT LEAST YET...AND LCLS ARE FAIRLY HIGH. DAYTIME HEATING HAS BEEN SQUELCHED OVER E CENTRAL AND SE NEBRASKA INTO SW IA BY A LEFTOVER MCS. THIS HAS REDUCED AVAILABLE CAPE...AND SEVERE POTENTIAL. MOISTURE IS HIGH ENOUGH TO ALLOW WIDELY SCT TSTMS ANYWAY. EXPECT MORE WIDESPREAD DEVELOPMENT AS THE FRONT PLOWS ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT...ALONG WITH LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. AS SYSTEM IS PROGRESSIVE...RAINFALL WILL PROBABLY NOT BE EXCESSIVE. SOME REMNANTS OF CONVECTION MAY BE LEFT OVER IN THE SE TUESDAY MORNING...BUT SHOULD NOT LAST LONG. 18Z NAM APPEARS A TRIFLE SLOWER THAN 12Z RUN...BUT NOT ENOUGH FOR MUCH CONCERN YET. SEVERAL DAYS OF WARM AND DRY WEATHER SHOULD FOLLOW...WITH THE POSSIBLE EXCEPTION OF A RIDGE RUNNER WAVE WITH WARM ADVECTION PRECIP THU NIGHT. AIRMASS REMAINS WARM INTO THE WEEKEND UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF A STRONG UPPER RIDGE OVER THE S AND CENTRAL ROCKIES. BUMPED UP TEMPS A FEW DEGREES IN LINE WITH NEW GUID...BUT HELD BACK A COUPLE OF DEGREES ON SAT HPC GUID FOR BETTER CONSENSUS WITH SURROUNDING OFFICES. IF TIMING IS CORRECT ON THE NEXT FRONT... CONDITIONS WILL BE VERY WARM BY THEN AND TEMPS WILL NEED TO BE BROUGHT UP MORE BOTH DAY AND NIGHT. HPC AND MODELS ARE CONSISTENT FROM YESTERDAY IN BRINGING THE NEXT FRONT THROUGH LATER SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY. WHILE MODEL TIMING IS ALWAYS SUSPECT SO FAR OUT...CONSISTENCY APPEAR GOOD ENOUGH TO STICK TO PREVIOUS SCENARIO FOR THE WEEKEND. MONDAY IS LESS CERTAIN. UPPER FLOW GRADUALLY FLATTENS...AND THERE MAY BE A SECOND WAVE ALONG THE FRONT LATER SUNDAY OR MONDAY. PUT BETTER POPS IN FOR SUNDAY NGT THAN MONDAY...BUT FAIRLY LOW NUMBERS OVERALL. TEMPERATURES ARE AS UNCERTAIN AS FRONTAL POSITIONS...BUT ELECTED TO TREAT SUNDAY AS A POST FRONTAL DAY WITH SUBSTANTIALLY COOLER TEMPS THAN INDICATED BY HPC GUIDANCE.ES AND THIS TOO WILL NEED MONITORING. && .OAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
