AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE OMAHA/VALLEY NE
145 PM CDT MON SEP 6 2004

.DISCUSSION...
ONLY REAL FORECAST CONCERNS OVER THE NEXT 7 DAYS REVOLVE AROUND 
TEMPERATURES AS NO SIGNIFICANT WEATHER CAN BE EXPECTED. BE THANKFUL 
FOR THE RAIN THAT OCCURRED YESTERDAY...AS IT COULD BE DRY FOR THE 
NEXT FORESEEABLE 10 DAYS OR SO.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD ACROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT 
WITH CLEAR AND COOL SKIES...ALONG WITH LIGHT WINDS. NORTHWESTERLY 
FLOW SHOULD CONTINUE TO ADVECT IN DRIER DEWPOINTS...THUS FEEL THAT 
FOG SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM OVERNIGHT AT ALL. BASED ON TRAJECTORIES 
AND RADIATIONAL COOLING...FEEL WE'LL LIKELY REACH THE UPPER 40S TO 
LOWER 50S.

AS THE HIGH BEGINS TO MOVE EAST TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY... 
RETURN FLOW SETS UP ACROSS THE PLAINS. A WEAK SHORT WAVE NOW MOVING 
INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST APPEARS TO MOVE THROUGH THE NORTHERN 
PLAINS...BUT IT SHOULD BE FAR ENOUGH NORTH TO HAVE LITTLE IMPACT ON 
OUR WEATHER...ESPECIALLY SINCE WE REMAIN QUITE DRY WITH NO 
SIGNIFICANT MOISTURE ENTRAINMENT.

LATER IN THE WEEK...THE MODELS ARE STILL DEPICTING AN UPPER RIDGE  
BUILDING INTO THE PLAINS THROUGH MID WEEK.. THERE APPEARS TO BE 
ANOTHER WEAK WAVE MOVING THROUGH THE NORTHERN PLAINS ON 
SATURDAY...BUT AGAIN FEEL THAT IS SHOULD REMAIN FAR ENOUGH NORTH NOT 
NOT AFFECT US. OVERALL...THIS WILL LEAD TO A NICE WARMING TREND 
THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND WITH TEMPERATURES CLIMBING INTO THE LOWER TO 
MID 80S BY MID WEEK. 

DIGGING TROUGH TO THE WEST EARLY NEXT WEEK WILL ALLOW FOR SHORT WAVE 
RIDGING AND WARM TEMPERATURES TO CONTINUE WELL INTO THE WEEKEND... 
WITH PERHAPS A SYSTEM SETTLING IN DURING THE FOLLOWING WEEK BUT WELL 
BEYOND THIS PACKAGE.
