.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 248 AM CDT Sun Jul 27 2025

A weak westerly flow aloft prevailed across western Kansas this
morning with subtle waves rotating around the west/northwestern
edge of an upper high over the southeast United States
impacting the Four Corners region, eastern Colorado, and western
Kansas. Isolated storms that developed earlier across southeast
Colorado have since dissipated. At the surface, a trough of low
pressure was located over eastern Colorado, resulting in a
south southeast flow across western Kansas. Surface dew points
ranged from the mid 60s to lower 70s at 2am, notably higher than
forecast by NBM guidance 24 hours prior. These dewpoints were
closer to the 75th percentile. Temperatures also ended up a few
degrees warmer than guidance.

For today the models and ensembles this morning show little
change from previous runs, indicating an upper high building
across the Central Plains. This will lead to hot and dry
conditions across western Kansas over the next several days.
High confidence (over 80%) remains for high temperatures around
100 degrees to be possible each day from today through early
next week. These forecast highs are supported by 850mb and
700mb temperatures and minimal spread in their 25th to 75th
percentile. These highs also accounts for what appears to be a
few degree cool bias in guidance based on yesterdays high
temperatures.

Given that afternoon dewpoints east of Highway 283 were higher
yesterday than what was suggested by NBM guidance and were
closer to the 75th percentile have decided to trend towards the
higher 75th percentile dewpoints today. Following this bias and
given potential high temperatures near 100 degrees, heat index
values of 105 or higher remain possible this afternoon in the
current Heat Advisory area.

On Monday if this trend of temperatures being a few degrees
warmer than NBM guidance continues, and higher afternoon dew
points...a Heat Advisory may once again be warranted for the
I-70 corridor, then along and east of Highway 283. After good
collaboration with surrounding offices have resulted decided to
hold off on issuing a Heat Advisory for Monday afternoon. Next
shift with new information will have a better handle on this.

This heat will continue Tuesday and Wednesday as an upper ridge
axis builds across the northwest United States and British
Columbia. As this occurs an upper level trough will begin to
move across south central Canada towards the Western Great
Lakes Region. As this upper trough approaches the Western Great
Lakes, a cold front will drop south across the northern plains,
and a surface trough of low pressure will move from eastern
Colorado into western Kansas. This will lead to lower dew points
and consequently lower heat index values. Therefore, the only
areas of concern on Tuesday will be locations near Medicine
Lodge, Pratt, and St. Johns. Despite heat index values falling
below 105 for many locations on Tuesday and Wednesday, those
with outdoor activities should continue using heat safety tips.

As the surface trough exits Colorado and moves into western
Kansas toward mid week, the chance for thunderstorms will begin
to increase. Widespread measurable precipitation will be
possible by Thursday when the cold front finally drops south
into southern Kansas and northern Oklahoma and our next more
significant upper level trough approaches from the west. Wet
and cooler conditions will then linger through the start of the
weekend, with unseasonably cool air (highs only in the 80s)
being possible across western Kansas.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z MONDAY/...
Issued at 519 AM CDT Sun Jul 27 2025

A surface trough will remain nearly stationary over eastern
Colorado today. This will maintain southerly winds over
southwest Kansas. These winds will increase to 15-20 knots
between 15Z and 18Z as stronger boundary layer winds mix down to
the surface. These gusty south winds will diminish by or
shortly after sunset. VFR conditions are expected over the next
24 hours.

.DDC WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
Heat Advisory from noon today to 8 PM CDT this evening for
KSZ030-031-045-046-064>066-078>081-087>090.
