Area forecast discussion, Jun 24, 2:38 PM MST, 32 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHEYENNE WY 338 PM MDT TUE JUN 24 2014 .SHORT TERM...(LATE THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 300 PM MDT TUE JUN 24 2014 THIS AFTERNOON IS SHAPING UP TO BE A CARBON COPY OF MONDAY CONVECTION-WISE. MOIST EASTERLY LOW LEVEL FLOW WITH DEW POINTS IN THE 50S IS BANKED UP ALONG THE FRONT RANGE. AFTERNOON HEATING HAS CREATED AN UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH ISOLATED TSTORMS QUICKLY DEVELOPING AND INTENSIFYING OVER THE SOUTHERN LARAMIE RANGE. OTHER CONVECTION WAS FIRING ALONG A THERMAL RIDGE WITH SBCAPES OF 800-1200 J/KG. SPC ISSUED SEVERE TSTORM WATCH 354 FOR ALBANY AND LARAMIE COUNTIES VALID UNTIL 10 PM MDT. STORM MOTION IS TO THE SOUTHEAST AT 10 TO 15 MPH. BESIDES THE HAIL AND WIND THREATS... VERY HEAVY RAINFALL MAY RESULT IN LOCALIZED FLOODING. LEFT IN SEVERE THREAT FROM THE SUMMIT EAST TO KIMBALL THROUGH EARLY EVENING. CONVECTION WILL DECREASE IN INTENSITY AND COVERAGE LATER THIS EVENING AS AIR MASS STABILIZES SOMEWHAT. SOME ISOLATED WEAKER CONVECTION MAY LINGER OVER PORTIONS OF EAST AND SOUTH CENTRAL WY LATER TONIGHT. WEDNESDAY LOOKS MORE FAVORABLE FOR STRONG TO SEVERE CONVECTION ACROSS THE PLAINS AS SHORTWAVE ENERGY RIDES NORTHEAST ACROSS THE CWA AND INTERACTS WITH MOIST AND MORE UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT. MODEL FORECAST SBCAPES PEAK IN THE 2000-2500 J/KG RANGE DURING THE AFTERNOON EAST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE. CONVECTION WILL FORM OVER THE HIGHER TERRAIN EARLY AFTERNOON AND PUSH EAST ONTO THE PLAINS MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. MAIN SEVERE THREATS WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND WIND GUSTS TO 60 MPH...BUT AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE. THE SEVERE THREAT WILL DIMINISH AFTER MID EVENING ACROSS THE WESTERN NE PANHANDLE. ISOLATED CONVECTION WILL LIKELY LINGER INTO THE LATE NIGHT HOURS FROM NORTHEAST WY INTO NORTHERN NE WITH THE PASSAGE OF ANOTHER SHORTWAVE. THURSDAY MORNING SHOULD BE DRY FOR THE MOST PART WITH SUBSIDENCE UNDER SHORTWAVE RIDGE. SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL DRIFT SLOWLY EAST TO NEAR THE WY-NE BORDER DURING THE AFTERNOON. THE THERMAL AXIS SHIFTS EAST INTO THE WESTERN NE PANHANDLE WITH SBCAPES OF 2000-3000 J/KG. CONVECTIVE COVERAGE WILL BE MORE ISOLATED WITH A FEW STRONG TO SEVERE TSTORMS POSSIBLE IN WESTERN NE PANHANDLE. TEMPERATURES WILL BE ABOVE SEASONAL NORMALS BOTH DAYS...WITH THE WARMEST OF THE TWO THURSDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 80S TO AROUND 90 FOR THE PLAINS. LOWS WILL BE IN THE 40S AND 50S. .LONG TERM...(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY) ISSUED AT 300 PM MDT TUE JUN 24 2014 THE MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW A DRIER PATTERN DEVELOPING INTO THE WEEKEND. WITH GOOD UPPER LEVEL DIFFLUENCE AHEAD OF THE UPPER TROUGH ON THURS NIGHT AND HIGH INSTABILITY ACROSS THE PANHANDLE...COULD BE A FEW SEVERE STORMS LINGERING INTO THE EARLY NIGHT OVER THE WESTERN PANHANDLE. UPPER TROUGH IS OVERHEAD ON FRI WITH THE SFC TROUGH ALONG OUR EASTERN CWA BORDER DURING THE AFTN. WITH THIS SETUP IT APPEARS THAT THE HIGHEST DEW POINTS (50-60F) AND SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL BE JUST EAST OF THE CWA...SO SEVERE POTENTIAL SHOULD BE LESS THAN THURS. OF COURSE IF THE UPPER TROUGH IS SLOWER AND THE MOISTURE BOUNDARY LIES ALONG THE WY-NE BORDER...THEN FRI COULD END UP BEING YET ANOTHER DAY OF SEVERE STORMS IN THE PANHANDLE. MUCH DRIER AIR MASS IS STILL ADVERTISED FOR SAT AND INTO SUN AS WEST TO NORTHWEST LLVL WINDS PUSH ACROSS THE AREA...AND POPS ARE DECREASED ACCORDINGLY. LONG RANGE MODELS DO NOT SHOW ANY SUSTAINED MOISTURE ADVECTION THROUGH AT LEAST EARLY NEXT WEEK. && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY MORNING) ISSUED AT 1147 AM MDT TUE JUN 24 2014 SCATTERED SHOWERS AND TSTMS WILL DEVELOP ONCE AGAIN AROUND 20Z THIS AFTN ALONG THE SOUTHERN LARAMIE RANGE. THESE STORMS WILL THEN MOVE EASTWARD...WITH THE COVERAGE HIGHEST IN AREAS NEAR INTERSTATE 80. INCLUDED VCTS AT MANY OF THE SITES EVEN THOUGH THE BEST CHANCE OF STORMS WILL STRETCH FROM LAR TO SNY. WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE LESS THAN 15 KT OUTSIDE OF GUSTY WINDS FROM THE TSTMS. SHOWER ACTIVITY WILL DECREASE AFTER AROUND 06Z. && .FIRE WEATHER... ISSUED AT 245 PM MDT TUE JUN 24 2014 MINIMAL FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS THE NEXT FEW DAYS WITH OPPORTUNITIES FOR SOME WETTING RAINS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE PLAINS. DRIER AIR MASS WILL BE WEST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE WHERE LOWER ELEVATION RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WILL DROP TO 10 TO 15 PERCENT DURING THE AFTERNOONS. WINDS WILL GENERALLY BE LIGHT EXCEPT IN AND NEAR THUNDERSTORMS. && .CYS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WY...NONE.
