Area forecast discussion, May 27, 4:03 PM MST, 20 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Goodland KS 503 PM MDT Mon May 27 2019 .UPDATE... Issued at 431 PM MDT Mon May 27 2019 Severe Thunderstorm Watch 265 has been issued for the northern counties through 05Z Tuesday. Conditions are favorable for a few storms to become strong to severe. && .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday night) Issued at 149 PM MDT Mon May 27 2019 The upper low center over the 4-corners region today moves over the central Rockies by late Tuesday and slowly across Nebraska Wednesday and Wednesday night. An initial weak short wave trough rotates ahead of the low center across the forecast area this evening with another couple of short wave troughs sweeping around the base of the upper trough over the desert southwest and eventually lifting out across the central high plains region Tuesday evening and again Wednesday evening. The associated surface low deepens over southeast Colorado this afternoon and moves over central Kansas overnight before redeveloping further west again on Tuesday over eastern Colorado and eventually lifting out along the frontal boundary across the eastern plains Tuesday night. Between tonight and Tuesday night, it appears isolated to scattered showers continue to develop and remain mainly to the north of the forecast area. The chance of showers decreases as cooler surface high pressure works slowly into the region staring on Tuesday and continuing into Wednesday. High temperatures today will be mainly in the lower 80s with highs on Wednesday ranging from the upper 50s across eastern Colorado to the upper 60s over central Kansas. Lows will be mainly in the 40s. .LONG TERM...(Thursday through Monday) Issued at 149 PM MDT Mon May 27 2019 By Thursday, a closed low begins to weaken, dissipating over the Midwest by Friday afternoon. A ridge builds over the central U.S. Friday with a closed low sitting over the West Coast. Through Monday, the ridge continues to build from the south with the closed low weakening and sitting over southern California. The ECMWF has a closed low moving east along the U.S./Canada border Sunday through the end of the extended forecast period. A weak surface low is expected to sit along the southern Kansas/Colorado border starting Saturday through the extended forecast period. An associated stationary front and dryline are expected with the low. The Tri-State region is expected to sit to the north of the low and front. This likely is why chances for rain and thunderstorms persist through much of the extended forecast period. A warming trend continues through Saturday with highs starting in the upper 60s to lower 70s Thursday. By Saturday, highs in the upper 70s to low 80s are expected through Tuesday. Lows will follow a similar trend warming from the upper 40s to low 50s Thursday night up to the mid-to upper 50s by Tuesday. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening) Issued at 503 PM MDT Mon May 27 2019 For KGLD...VFR skies thru the forecast period with any scattered high clouds becoming more of a scattered/broken mid deck by 09z Tuesday. Winds...SE 10-20kts thru 09z Tuesday...then WSW 10-20kts. LLWS 00z-09z 180@40kts. For KMCK...mainly VFR skies during the forecast period. MVFR ceilings around BKN020-030 from 04z-10z Tuesday.
