KEY MESSAGES
- Isolated showers and storms this afternoon, especially north of Highway 50
- Additional storm chances tonight into Monday
- More rain chances through midweek
DISCUSSION
Issued at 313 PM CDT Sun Jun 2 2024
As of 3 PM Sunday afternoon, WAA near 700mb continues to generate isolated to scattered showers/storms mainly north of Highway 50.
These showers/storms will continue decreasing in coverage and intensity with eastward extent as the WAA diminishes.
Further west, a very similar setup to Saturday evening/this morning is emerging with convection developing across the higher terrain.
This convection is likely to gradually progress eastward into western KS. The best low-level theta-e will once again reside across western OK, which should steer any MCS mainly southwest of the forecast area. Short term radar trends will need to be monitored overnight. More storm development is possible towards dawn Monday if today's convection weakens overnight, allowing the LLJ to overspread western OK. This would bring the nose of the jet near the stateline. Like today, prolonged weak WAA near 700mb could support showers/storms through the day Monday. All of that to say, confidence remains quite low for widespread convection at any given location in our forecast area.
The active pattern will continue through at least midweek with weak perturbations translating across the Plains atop a weakly to moderately unstable environment. Confidence continues to increase for the active pattern continuing with the main midlevel ridge axis remaining west of the Plains. This result would keep shower/storm chances going and temperatures in the 80s.
AVIATION /18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY/
Issued at 1246 PM CDT Sun Jun 2 2024
Showers and storm continue to develop across portions of central and south-central KS and will impact the all terminals except CNU through 20-21Z. Behind the showers/storms, winds may briefly shift to the east at 10-15 kt but should quickly return to the south at 15-25 kt. More convection is possible late tonight into Monday but confidence is quite low and have opted for a four hour PROB 30 group at each terminal. MVFR CIGS may accompany the convection late tonight into Monday.
ICT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES
None.
