NWS Forecaster Discussion
183 fxus63 ktop 282001 afdtop Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Topeka Kansas 301 PM CDT Thursday Aug 28 2008 Discussion... Tonight through Friday night... Main concern in short term is cold frontal passage and convective chances. Cold front very near kstj-kmhk-ksln line right now. Movement is slow and front is fairly shallow. Associated lift is producing a cumulus field. Expect enough surface heating in the next few hours to help initiate surface-based convection. With degree of instability...severe storms possible with a hail and wind threat. As front passes expect much drier air to infiltrate the region. Temperatures will rise nicely tomorrow but with much lower dewpoints it will be more comfortable. Long term...did not make large changes to the extended periods Sat-thurs. Kept the weekend dry...however will need to watch western counties in the overnight hours as low level jet kicks in each night and overruns the remnant frontal boundary in western Kansas. Conditions continue into Monday as trough over the western US moves through the Great Basin into The Rockies. By Tuesday...as trough lifts into the upper Midwest...it is prognosticated to send a frontal boundary into Kansas sometime during the late day Tuesday or early Wednesday. Have highest chance probability of precipitation this time period. GFS quick to shunt probability of precipitation south...however with westerly flow likely inhibiting southern progress will keep slt chance probability of precipitation for Wednesday. Dropped temperatures a few degrees Wednesday and Thursday with potential increase in clouds and precipitation. 67 && Aviation... For 18z taf issuance...main concern with this set of tafs will be cold frontal passage and potential for thunderstorms along and just behind this front. Tafs will reflect a 21 to 23 UTC frontal passage time. Convection is noted behind the front in Nebraska...and this trend is reflected in the tafs. Other than an MVFR period with the thunderstorms...VFR will prevail with winds switching to the north before 00 UTC. && Top watches/warnings/advisories...none. && $$ Harding/67
