Area forecast discussion, Jun 1, 4:09 PM MST, 31 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CHEYENNE WY 509 PM MDT MON JUN 1 2015 .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT) ISSUED AT 1248 PM MDT MON JUN 1 2015 THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPED ON CUE OVER THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS OF SOUTHEAST WYOMING EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. OVERALL LACK OF DEEP SHEAR AND MINIMAL CAPE OVER SOUTHEAST WYOMING LEADING TO PULSE TYPE STORMS. FARTHER EAST INTO THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE CAPE VALUES WILL QUICKLY RAMP UP. CURRENT SPC MESOANALYSIS IS SHOWING SURFACE BASED AND MOST UNSTABLE CAPE VALUES AROUND 3000 WHICH IS HIGHER THAN THE NAM OR GFS WERE INDICATED ON THE 12Z SOLUTIONS. WHILE A RIDGE AXIS OVER THE AREA AND RELATIVELY WEEK DEEP LAYER SHEAR OVER THE PANHANDLE THIS AFTERNOON WILL LIKELY INHIBIT LONG LIVED SUPER CELL DEVELOPMENT...A FEW STORMS WITH STRONG UPDRAFTS WILL BE POSSIBLE. LARGE HAIL WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS. ALTHOUGH THE TORNADO THREAT IS LOW...SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL PROVIDE ENOUGH LOW LEVEL SHEAR THAT TORNADO DEVELOPMENT IS NOT IMPOSSIBLE. WESTERLY DOWNSLOPE FLOW WILL SET UP TUESDAY MAKING FOR LESSER CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. MODELS ARE GENERATING VERY LITTLE IN THE WAY OF QPF TUESDAY WHICH MAY BE CORRECT GIVEN DOWNSLOPE FLOW...BUT RESIDUAL MOISTURE AND EVAPOTRANSPIRATION WILL ADD TO LOW LEVEL INSTABILITY. THE WEAKEST SHORTWAVES COULD EASILY POP OFF A FEW THUNDERSTORMS. SHEAR VALUES WILL BE HIGHER BUT CAPE VALUES WILL BE LOWER TUESDAY...THUS AGAIN NOT EXPECTING SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS BUT A FEW STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS COULD BE POSSIBLE IF STORMS DEVELOP. LOTS OF UNCERTAINTY WITH THE WEDNESDAY FORECAST. GFS AND NAM SOLUTIONS ARE VERY DIFFERENT. GFS CONTINUES TO SHOW LOTS OF SOUTHEAST LOW LEVEL FLOW PRODUCING INSTABILITY ALONG WITH 40 TO 50 KTS OF 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR. THEREFORE SHOULD THE GFS VERIFY WEDNESDAY THERE WILL BE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND EAST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE AND LIKELY SEVERAL SEVERE STORMS WITH TORNADOES POSSIBLE. ON THE OTHER HAND THE NAM SHOWS A COLD FRONT DIVING ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT...WHICH MAY PARTIALLY BE DUE TO COLD OUTFLOW FROM CONVECTION OVER MONTANA AND NORTHEAST WYOMING. REGARDLESS OF THE REASON THE FRONT WOULD BE STRONG ENOUGH TO PRODUCE WIDESPREAD STRATUS...CAPPING OFF THE LOW LEVELS AND INHIBITING THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT EAST OF THE LARAMIE RANGE. KEPT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS GOING BUT CONFIDENCE IS LOW IN BOTH TEMPERATURE FORECAST AND PRECIPITATION CHANCES WEDNESDAY. .LONG TERM...(THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY) ISSUED AT 1248 PM MDT MON JUN 1 2015 LONG RANGE MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT...SHOWING AN UPPER LEVEL LOW NEAR THE CALIFORNIA COASTLINE AND A RIDGE ALOFT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. THIS PATTERN WILL NOT MUCH CHANGE INTO NEXT WEEKEND...SO EXPECT A PROLONGED PERIOD OF UNSETTLED WEATHER. ANY SUNNY SKIES WILL MAINLY BE IN THE MORNING...WITH SHOWERS AND TSTORMS IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. GRANTED...IT WILL BE WARMER THAN THE UNSETTLED WEATHER IN MAY...BUT THAT WILL ALSO RESULT IN ADDITIONAL DEEP CONVECTION AND POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL EACH DAY. SATURDAY APPEARS TO BE THE BEST DAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 70S TO LOW 80S ACROSS THE AREA. MODELS SHOW THE COVERAGE OF CONVECTION WILL BE LIMITED ON SATURDAY AS A SHORTWAVE RIDGE MOVES OVERHEAD...BUT EVEN THEN...SHOWERS AND TSTORMS WILL DEVELOP OVER THE MOUNTAINS AND MOVE EAST NEAR THE COLORADO BORDER. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY APPEAR TO BE THE MOST LIKELY DAYS FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH MODEL SOUNDINGS SHOWING 1500 TO 2500 J/KG CAPE VALUES ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS IN ADDITION TO DECENT 0-6KM SHEAR AND LOW LI/S. SEVERE WEATHER THREAT APPEARS TO DIMINISH DURING THE WEEKEND. KEPT POP BETWEEN 25 TO 40 PERCENT ACROSS THE AREA FOR SCATTERED SHOWERS AND TSTORMS. TOO DIFFICULT TO TIME THE INDIVIDUAL SHORTWAVES THAT PUSH NORTHWARD ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER LEVEL LOW NEAR CALIFORNIA TO GET ANY MORE SPECIFIC. HIGH TEMPERATURES EACH DAY WILL GENERALLY BE BETWEEN 65 TO 75 EACH DAY...WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SATURDAY WHICH WILL BE AROUND 5 TO 10 DEGREES WARMER ACROSS THE AREA. LATE NIGHT/EARLY MORNING FOG IS ALSO POSSIBLE EACH DAY WITH PLENTIFUL LLVL MOISTURE. && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY EVENING) ISSUED AT 504 PM MDT MON JUN 1 2015 LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE PANHANDLE CONTINUES TO MOVE EAST AND WILL IMPACT THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE AIRPORTS THROUGH 02Z. WILL NEED TO WATCH FOR ANOTHER CONVECTION MOVING OFF THE LARAMIE RANGE THIS EVENING...BUT THOUGHTS ARE THAT A LOT OF THIS CONVECTION SHOULD DECREASE WITH SUNSET. FOG/STRATUS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG THE PLATTE RIVER VALLEY AND AREAS IN THE PANHANDLE THAT DO RECEIVE SHOWERS THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. CONTINUED WITH IFR/LIFR WORDING IN TAFS AT KBFF...KAIA AND POSSIBLY KSNY. WILL TRY TO NARROW DOWN MORE WITH THE 06Z TAFS AS THE LATEST HRRR SHOULD COVER THIS TIMEFRAME BY THEN. && .FIRE WEATHER... ISSUED AT 1248 PM MDT MON JUN 1 2015 ISOLATED TO SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER SOUTHEAST WYOMING AND THE WESTERN NEBRASKA PANHANDLE THROUGH THIS WEEK. NO CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS WITH HIGH MOISTURE CONTENT ACROSS THE AREA. && .HYDROLOGY... ISSUED AT 1248 PM MDT MON JUN 1 2015 SOME RIVERS WILL CONTINUE TO RUN AT HIGH LEVELS THROUGH THIS WEEK. THUNDERSTORMS MAY CAUSE INCREASES IN RIVER LEVELS WITH VERY SHORT NOTICE A GROUNDS REMAIN SATURATED ACROSS THE AREA. ALSO...WARM TEMPERATURES WILL LEAD TO INCREASING SNOW MELT IN THE MOUNTAINS. INCREASED RUNOFF FROM MOUNTAINS WILL CONTRIBUTE TO HIGH RIVER LEVELS. THUNDERSTORMS OVER MOUNTAINS COULD PRODUCE VERY RAPID SNOW MELT AND FLASH FLOODING SHOULD ANY THUNDERSTORMS BECOME SLOW MOVING OR STATIONARY. && .CYS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WY...NONE.
