.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1207 PM CDT Sun May 24 2026
Today and Tonight...
Southerly flow along with rising midlevel heights will continue to
draw warmer air into the Central Plains today. Temperatures have
already climbed into the mid and upper 70s by noon, under
mostly sunny skies. Highs this afternoon will reach the into the
80s.
A weak shortwave will ripple into the mid CONUS this afternoon,
bringing the potential for a few storms. Sunny skies will allow 500-
1000 J/kg of CAPE to build into northeast Nebraska, in addition to
30-40 kts of bulk shear and steepening lapse rates. As of noon
today, CAMs are beginning to come into better agreement on
developing a few isolated storms this afternoon and evening. If
storms are able to develop, a few of them may be capable of large
hail and strong winds. While LCLs will remain fairly high, a tornado
or two can`t be completely ruled out, with notable curvature in
hodographs.
Any storms that may develop are expected to clear the forecast area
by midnight, with quiet weather prevailing through the overnight
hours. Temperatures will remain mild overnight, with lows falling
into the upper 50s and low 60s.
Monday and Tuesday...
Temperatures continue to climb into the mid and upper 80s Monday and
Tuesday, as a ridge builds into the central CONUS, and a low digs
through the west coast. Another round of showers and storms may
develop across a lingering boundary Monday afternoon and evening (20-
30%), but any severe convection will likely be stunted by weak shear
and a lack of strong forcing for ascent.
Wednesday and Beyond...
Low pressure continues to churn over the west coast through midweek,
before shifting northeast and weakening by the weekend. Gulf
moisture will stream into the nation`s midsection Wednesday through
Saturday, providing numerous chances for much needed rainfall across
the forecast area. Models indicate PWATs could rise to the 90th
percentile or higher of climatology, raising the possibility for heavy
rainfall at times. Temperatures will cool into the end of the week,
dipping into the mid and upper 70s.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY/...
Issued at 543 PM CDT Sun May 24 2026
Breezy southerly winds will continue through the TAF period
generally blowing at 10-15 knots with gusts of 15-25 knots. VFR
conditions will persist with the exception of some reduced
visibility as a possibility at KOFK around 10pm as some
thunderstorms push through the area.
Otherwise, the other concern will be the development of
low-level wind shear as wind speeds at FL020 will be blowing out
of the southwest at 40-45 knots.
