Hail and Damaging Winds in Kansas, February 10, 2009
A potent storm system moved out of the Southwest United States into the the southern plains during the late afternoon into the early evening hours of February 10th, 2009. Warm moist air ahead of this system combined with strong dynamics across portions of South Central and Southeast Kansas to produce low topped supercells that produced large hail and damaging thunderstorm wind gusts.

Area forecast discussion, Feb 10, 3:05 PM CST, 1 hour 37 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS 305 PM CST TUE FEB 10 2009 .DISCUSSION... THIS IS AN ACTIVE WEATHER PERIOD. THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERN IS THE SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL TONIGHT. ADDITIONAL CONCERNS ARE THE MULTIPLE PRECIPITATION CHANCES FOR THE WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK. TONIGHT: VERY COMPLEX FORECAST FOR THE AREA WITH AN ARRAY OF WEATHER AND/OR HAZARDS. SO WELL START WITH CONVECTIVE CHANCES. MOISTURE HAS BEEN STREAMING NORTHWARD PER SURFACE OBSERVATIONS AND SATELLITE IMAGERY. ISOLATED SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY HAS BROKEN OUT ACROSS NORTHERN OKLAHOMA AND INTO SOUTHERN KANSAS. IT APPEARS TO BE FORMING ALONG A SUBTLE LEADING WAVE IN CONJUNCTION WITH LOW AND MID-LEVEL MOISTURE RETURN. THIS IS AN INDICATION THAT THE MID-LEVEL MOISTURE RETURN MAY BE A LITTLE QUICKER THAN EITHER THE NAM OR THE GFS INDICATED. THINK BEST CASE SCENARIO FOR LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE PUTS SOUTHERN KANSAS AND MORE LIKELY SOUTHEAST KANSAS IN THE MIDDLE 50S FOR DEWPOINTS. NAM MAINTAINS FAVORABLE LOW-LEVEL CAPE... 100 TO 200 J/KG 0-3KM... THROUGH LATE THIS EVENING OR EARLY TONIGHT WITH SHEAR PROFILES SUPPORTIVE OF SUPERCELLS THROUGH ROUGHLY 03Z. THERE IS A MARGINAL TORNADO THREAT THROUGH ABOUT 00Z TO 01Z CONTINGENT ON HIGHER DEWPOINTS ENTERING THE AREA. WITH INCREASING CIN AFTER SUNSET FEEL THAT SUPERCELLS WOULD BECOME ELEVATED WITH HAIL BEING THE MAIN THREAT. CANT RULE OUT A WIND THREAT EITHER GIVEN THE VERY STRONG WIND FIELDS. ACTIVITY IS ANTICIPATED TO RACE TO THE NORTHEAST AND DIMINISH IN STRENGTH AS IT MOVES AWAY FROM THE INSTABILITY. THE NEXT COMPLICATION FOR THIS PERIOD WILL BE THE POSSIBILITY OF WINTRY PRECIPITATION. BOTH THE NAM AND THE GFS PRODUCE SNOW LATE TONIGHT FROM GENERALLY A HUTCHINSON TO MARION LINE. THE NAM HAS A BAND OF HEAVY SNOW GOING FROM ROUGHLY GREAT BEND THROUGH SALINA WHILE GFS IS MUCH LESS ROBUST. THIS DIFFERENCE SEEMS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH THE POSITION AND ORIENTATION OF THE POTENTIAL VORTICITY ANOMALY. THE NAM IS BIT FURTHER NORTH AND STRONGER... DIPPING THE ANOMALY DOWN TO AROUND 600MB. THIS RESULTS IN A SURFACE LOW THAT IS FARTHER NORTHWEST AND DEEPER GIVING MORE TIME TO DRAW MOISTURE INTO THE STORM SYSTEM. ALL THIS SEEMS TO FEEDBACK ON ITSELF RESULTING IN AN AREA OF STRONG FRONTOGENESIS AND VERY FAVORABLE DENDRITIC SNOW GROWTH. I THINK SURFACE TEMPERATURES WILL BE TOO WARM FOR MUCH SNOW ACCUMULATION BUT IF THE NAM IS RIGHT... GIVEN ITS INTENSE LIFT... DYNAMIC COOLING PROCESSES COULD RESULT IN SURFACE TEMPERATURES THAT WOULD BE FAVORABLE FOR MORE SNOW ACCUMULATION. CONVERSELY... THE GFS PLACES ITS MORE FAVORABLE LIFT ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS AND PRODUCES A MUCH BROADER AND MUCH LIGHTER SNOW ACCUMULATION FIELD. WHILE THE NAM HAS SOME MERIT... LOW LEVEL WARMER TEMPERATURES WOULD SEEM TO PRECLUDE A HEAVY SNOW EVENT AS IT WOULD SUGGEST. THUS A BLEND OF THE GFS WITH ITS SNOW AMOUNTS AND NAM POSITIONING IS MOST REASONABLE AT THIS POINT. LASTLY... STRONG WINDS ARE EXPECTED OVERNIGHT AS THE STORM SYSTEMS DEEPENS. BOTH THE NAM AND THE GFS DEPICT A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS THE AREA. GFS IS BIT FASTER/ MORE EASTERLY WITH THE GRADIENT THAN THE NAM. BUT THE TWO ARE IN PRETTY GOOD OVERALL AGREEMENT IN THIS ASPECT OF THE FORECAST. SO WELL GO AHEAD AND HOIST A WIND ADVISORY FOR THE OVERNIGHT AND EARLY WEDNESDAY MORNING TIME FRAME. WINDS WILL LIKELY BE IN THE 26-30 KT SUSTAINED AREA AS THIS TIGHT GRADIENT TRAVERSES THE REGION. WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY: THE PRECIPITATION CHANCES FOR CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS WILL REMAIN THROUGH 18Z ON WEDNESDAY AS THE WRAP AROUND PRECIPITATION MOVES OUT OF THE AREA...WITH SNOW CHANCES CONTINUING THROUGH THAT TIME. THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE EASTWARD OUT OF THE AREA BY 00Z THURSDAY. BREEZY SOUTHERLY WINDS AND ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL RETURN THURSDAY AHEAD OF THE SURFACE LOW AND THAT WILL IMPACT THE AREA ON FRIDAY. FRIDAY-FRIDAY NIGHT: THE SYSTEM CURRENTLY LOCATED OFF THE WASHINGTON STATE AND OREGON COAST WILL MAKE ITS WAY INLAND TOWARD THE PLAINS. BOTH THE MODELS ARE IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT...HOWEVER...THE GFS IS A LITTLE MORE PROGRESSIVE...AND TRACKS A LITTLE BIT FURTHER TO THE SOUTH WITH THE SYSTEM. THE MAIN THREAT WITH THIS SYSTEM IS THE CHANCE FOR SOME ACCUMULATING SNOW IN CENTRAL KANSAS...WITH A RAIN...SNOW CHANCE ACROSS SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE STATE. HOWEVER...SINCE THERE ARE STILL SOME DIFFERENCES...UNSURE OF HOW FAR SOUTH THE SNOW WILL GET. AS THE SURFACE LOW MOVES NORTHEAST ACROSS THE STATE...THE GRADIENT WINDS AHEAD AND BEHIND IT WILL MAKE FOR SOME UNPLEASANT CONDITIONS. SATURDAY-SUNDAY: THE THIRD IN THE ONE...TWO...THREE PUNCH OF UPPER LEVEL WEATHER SYSTEMS WILL IMPACT THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. THE ECMWF AND GFS ARE NOT IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THIS SYSTEM. HOWEVER...BOTH HAVE SHOWN A DEVELOPING SHORTWAVE...BUT ARE VARYING IN ITS STRENGTH. FOR NOW THE MAIN AREA OF CONCERN IS CENTRAL KANSAS SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. BECAUSE OF THE COOLER SURFACE TEMPERATURES BEHIND THE COLD FRONT THAT WILL PASS THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING...AM KEEPING IT MAINLY A SNOW EVENT...WITH A CHANCE OF RAIN OR SNOW SUNDAY AFTERNOON AS DAY TIME TEMPS INCREASE SOME. MONDAY-TUESDAY: BOTH THE ECMWF AND GFS ARE IN AGREEMENT THAT YET ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE WILL BE IMPACTING THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY...HOWEVER...THEY DISAGREE ON THE TIMING OF THE FEATURE. THE ECMWF IS SHOWING A DEEPER SYSTEM OVER KANSAS WITH A SURFACE LOW TRACKING ACROSS THE OKLAHOMA...KANSAS STATE LINE...AND PLACES THE PRECIPITATION A BIT FURTHER TO THE NORTH THAN THE GFS. BECAUSE OF THE DIFFERENCES...HAVE PUT A RAIN OR SNOW CHANCE WITH 20 TO 30 POPS FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. CDB/BILLINGS && .AVIATION...18Z TAFS KRSL/KSLN/KHUT/KICT/KCNU COMPLEX AVIATION FORECAST...WITH NEITHER NORTH AMERICAN MODEL NOR GLOBAL FORECAST SYSTEM MODEL SOLUTIONS TAKEN AT FACE VALUE. GLOBAL FORECAST SYSTEM MODEL INITIALIZED BETTER THERMODYNAMICALLY...BUT SEEMS TO BE TOO NOISY/DISJOINED BREAKING OUT CONVECTION. NORTH AMERICAN MODEL IS A BIT MORE CONTINUOUS WITH THE MOISTURE RETURN...BUT GIVEN ITS BIAS TO BE TOO AGGRESSIVE WITH MOISTURE RETURN AND NOT FOND OF ITS IDEA OF RAPIDLY DEEPENING/SLOWING SYSTEM. IN THAT REGARD GLOBAL FORECAST SYSTEM MODELS MORE PROGRESSIVE SOLUTION IS PREFERRED. THE MAIN ISSUE WAS TO SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASE SURFACE WINDS GIVEN THE TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT BEHIND FRONT. SOME POTENTIAL FOR WET SNOW AT KRSL/KSLN DURING THE NIGHT...BUT A LOT OF THAT WILL DEPEND ON HOW MUCH THE SYSTEM DEEPENS. THUNDER POTENTIAL IS HIGHEST AT KCNU AND WOULD DECR TO THE POINT WHERE ONLY CB MENTIONED AT KHUT. AGAIN THIS COULD CHANGE IF SYSTEM DEEPENS/SLOWS AS MUCH AS NORTH AMERICAN MODEL SUGGEST. -HOWERTON && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
