.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 241 PM CDT Sun Aug 14 2022

Large scale pattern consisting of an extensive area of upper high 
pressure centered over the central Plains. Meanwhile, downstream 
upper trough was situated over the northeast CONUS. At the surface, 
backdoor cool air advection was keeping current temps in the mid 
70s/low 80s with dew points in the low/mid 60s over the CWA. 

Precip chance increase after midnight as synoptic scale forcing 
increases in part to vort max aloft/stout isentropic 
upglide/moisture advection. The environment will favorable for 
possible excessive rainfall given good precip efficiency/deep warm 
cloud layer/PW around 2". Short term models seem to be in agreement 
focus for heavier rainfall will be across the northern/eastern CWA 
where strong mid layer ageostrophic lift will be more prevalent 
through Monday. By Monday night, models advertise the heavier precip 
to begin expanding southward across the rest of the CWA through 
Tuesday morning. Activity should be coming to a close north to south 
then Tuesday evening. 

By Wednesday, upper trough to the east begins to amplify resulting 
in flow aloft over the central Plains becoming predominately 
northwesterly. Embedded impulses riding down the backside of the upper 
trough will keep precip chances alive heading into and through next 
weekend. 

Highs:  
Mon - mid 70s/mid 80s 
Tue - low 70s
Wed - upper 70s 
Thu - upper 70s/low 80s
Fri - upper 70s/low 80s 
Sat - upper 70s
