AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WICHITA KS 1122 PM CDT WED JUN 10 2015 ...UPDATED FOR 06Z AVIATION DISCUSSION... .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY) ISSUED AT 303 PM CDT WED JUN 10 2015 MAIN FORECAST CONCERN THROUGH SATURDAY WILL BE TRENDS AND PLACEMENT OF HEAVY CONVECTIVE RAINFALL AND POTENTIAL FOR FLOODING. A LEAD SHORTWAVE ALOFT AHEAD OF THE CLOSED UPPER LOW ALONG THE CALIFORNIA COAST WILL MOVE ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS TONIGHT. THERE WILL BE A WINDOW THIS EVENING FOR MARGINALLY SEVERE HIGH BASED SURFACE CONVECTION FROM WESTERN INTO NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS WITH AN INVERTED-V SOUNDING LENDING TO MAINLY A DOWNBURST WIND RISK PRIOR TO MIDNIGHT. OTHERWISE A MODESTLY STRONG LOW LEVEL JET AND THE RESULTANT ELEVATED MOISTURE TRANSPORT SHOULD SUSTAIN THE DIURNAL CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL KANSAS OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY THURSDAY MORNING. MID-LEVEL WARMING NOSING INTO SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS LATE TONIGHT MAY LIMIT THE SOUTHERN EXTENT OF CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT THOUGH CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW MAY PERMIT SOME SOUTHWARD EXTENT INTO THE WICHITA METRO OVERNIGHT. IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING TROF AND ANY LINGERING CONVECTION EARLY THURSDAY...A BREEZY TO WINDY DAY IS EXPECTED ALONG/EAST OF THE I-135 CORRIDOR. THE SURFACE COLD FRONT IS NOW DEPICTED BY MOST SHORT TERM MODELS TO ADVANCE A BIT FASTER INTO WEST CENTRAL AND NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS TOWARD PEAK HEATING WHERE LATE DAY STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS ARE EXPECTED IN THE PRESENCE OF MODERATE DEEP LAYER SHEAR AND INSTABILITY. THE MAIN RISK WILL THEN TRANSITION TO MORE OF A LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL EVENT THURSDAY NIGHT ACROSS CENTRAL KANSAS WHERE THE LOW LEVEL JET WILL IMPINGE OVER THE SOUTHWARD SAGGING SURFACE FRONT WHICH WILL BECOME SOMEWHAT MORE PARALLEL TO THE FLOW ALOFT. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES APPROACHING TWO INCHES WITH TENDENCY FOR TRAINING AND BACKBUILDING OF CONVECTION WILL LEND TO HEAVY RAINFALL. A SETUP FOR HEAVY CONVECTIVE RAINFALL WILL CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT ACROSS PORTIONS OF CENTRAL...SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEAST KANSAS...THOUGH DETAILS ON AREAL PLACEMENT WILL HINGE ON THE POSITION OF THE EFFECTIVE SURFACE BOUNDARY AND LOW AND MID-LEVEL SYNOPTIC FEATURES. A FLOOD WATCH WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED WITH LATER FORECASTS AS CONFIDENCE ON AREAL PLACEMENT AND QPF INCREASE WITH LATER MODEL RUNS. CHANCES FOR SCATTERED TO PERHAPS NUMEROUS CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE THROUGH SATURDAY AS IMPULSES WITHIN THE EASTWARD MIGRATING UPPER TROF MOVE FROM THE ROCKIES ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS AS A MOIST/UNSTABLE AIRMASS REMAINS IN PLACE ACROSS CENTRAL AND EASTERN KANSAS. DARMOFAL .LONG TERM...(SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY) ISSUED AT 303 PM CDT WED JUN 10 2015 A RATHER UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE TO CLOSE OUT THE WEEKEND AS A MOIST/UNSTABLE AIRMASS REMAINS IN PLACE WITH A WEAKENING UPPER TROF ACROSS THE AREA. AS WE PROGRESS THRU EARLY NEXT WEEK A RATHER WEAK ZONAL UPPER FLOW PATTERN WILL EMERGE WITH THE WEAK TROUGHING MOVING EAST OR BECOMING MORE NONDESCRIPT. WHILE A MOIST SOUTHERLY FLOW LOOKS TO REMAIN IN PLACE...LACK OF A MORE ROBUST FORCING OR FOCUSING MECHANISM SHOULD RESULT IN MORE ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED CONVECTION BY TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. KED && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY NIGHT) ISSUED AT 1117 PM CDT WED JUN 10 2015 CLUSTERS OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL AFFECT NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS OVERNIGHT IN AN AREA OF STRONG MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE. WILL HAVE TSRA AT THE RSL AND SLN TERMINALS AND VCTS AT HUT...WITH CONVECTION LIKELY TO BE MORE ISOLATED FURTHER SOUTH. DOWNPOURS AND VARIABLE GUSTY WINDS WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH THESE STORMS OVERNIGHT. OTHERWISE...A COLD FRONT WILL DROP SOUTHWARD THROUGH CENTRAL KANSAS THURSDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING ALLOWING SOUTHERLY WINDS TO SHIFT TO NORTHERLY. A LINEAR AXIS OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP ALONG THE FRONT LATE IN THE PM/EVE...AS LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE INCREASES. JMC && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
