AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
355 PM CDT FRI AUG 19 2005

.DISCUSSION...

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND FLASH FLOODING HIGHLIGHT THE FORECAST
CONCERNS TONIGHT. OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM EARLIER KS CONVECTION HAS
IGNITED FROM SOUTHWEST OF TOP THROUGH MCI. AIRMASS VERY UNSTABLE
WITH HIGH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES COVERING ENTIRE CWA. 0-6KM BULK
SHEAR VALUES SUPPORT POTENTIAL FOR A FEW INITIAL SUPERCELLS. DUE TO
RECENT HEAVY RAINS OVER THE PAST 2 DAYS...DEGREE OF INSTABILITY...
AVAILABLE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND PLUME OF SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE IT IS
PRUDENT TO ISSUE FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR THE ENTIRE CWA FOR ALL OF
TONIGHT. HAVE HIT QPF GRIDS RATHER HARD WITH MANY LOCATIONS LIKELY
TO SEE IN EXCESS OF AN INCH OF RAIN.

APPROACHING COLD FRONT ORIENTED NORTH/SOUTH THROUGH EASTERN NEBRASKA
AND CENTRAL KS WILL MARCH EAST-SOUTHEAST TONIGHT WITH ADDITIONAL
CONVECTION FORMING ALONG IT. THUS SOME AREAS WILL SEE SEVERAL ROUNDS
OF STORMS THROUGH 12Z SATURDAY.

MINIMAL COOLING BEHIND THIS FRONT AND EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO WARM
BACK UP TO SEASONAL VALUES ONCE THE SUN COMES OUT. SOUTHERN CWA WILL
BE SLOWEST TO BREAK OUT OF CLOUDS AND MAY BE A BIT OVERLY OPTIMISTIC
ON MAX TEMPERATURES. WILL MAINTAIN CHANCE POPS OVER SOUTHERN THIRD
OF CWA FOR AT LEAST THE MORNING HOURS. FRONTAL BOUNDARY APPEARS TO
HANG UP OVER SOUTHERN MO AND PLUME OF AFOREMENTIONED SUBTROPICAL
MOISTURE BENDS EAST ACROSS SOUTHERN HALF OF MO. WEAK VORTICITY
MAXIMA COULD EASILY BE EMBEDDED WITHIN THIS MOISTURE PLUME AND BE
ENOUGH FOR WIDELY SCATTERED NUISANCE CONVECTION.

HAVE ALSO ADDED LOW CHANCE POPS ACROSS NORTHWEST CORNER OF MO FOR
SATURDAY EVENING AS SECONDARY/850MB FRONT DROPS SOUTHEAST. MAY BE
ENOUGH RESIDUAL MOISTURE FOR SCATTERED STORMS TO FORM ALONG THE
850MB THETAE AXIS IN THE LATE AFTERNOON AND CONTINUE INTO NORTHWEST
MO EARLY IN THE EVENING.

MJ

BY SUNDAY...THE SURFACE FRONT IS WELL PAST OUR CWA.  A CURSORY LOOK
TO THE MODELS AND GUIDANCE WOULD SAY TEMPS BACK TO NEAR NORMAL AND
ZERO POPS.  HOWEVER WE HAVE SOME CONCERN WITH THE H8 FRONT THAT IS
STILL ACROSS OUR AREA SUNDAY MORNING.  A SMALL POSSIBILITY THAT WE
WILL SEE SOME SHOWER DEVELOPMENT ON THIS.  THE GFS SHOWS A LITTLE
MID LEVEL MOISTURE.  WILL TREND ON THE CONSERVATIVE SIDE BY ADDING A
FEW MORE CLOUDS AND KEEPING TEMPS JUST A LITTLE LOWER.

AT THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK...THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE IS TO OUR
WEST.  AN UPPER LEVEL LOW MOVES ONTO THE PACIFIC COAST BY THE MIDDLE
OF THE WEEK...ALTHOUGH THE TIMING OF THAT HAS BEEN CHANGING FROM RUN
TO RUN. WHILE THIS UPPER LOW WOBBLES AROUND...A SURFACE FRONT GETS
HUNG UP IN THE HIGH PLAINS. TIMING ON THIS ITEM HEADING EAST HAS
BEEN UNCERTAIN THE PAST SEVERAL RUNS.  WITHOUT A STRONG PUSH...THE
FRONT WILL LIKELY TAKE ITS TIME REACHING US. GFS MAY BE HINTING AT
PHASING THIS LOW WITH THE LOW NEAR THE GREAT LAKES ASSOCIATED WITH
THE UPPER LOW.  LATEST RUNS HAVE NOT AGREED ON TIMING...BUT GENERAL
CONSENSUS HAS BEEN TO PUSH FROPA BACK UNTIL FRIDAY NIGHT (DAY7)...
SIMILAR TO THE GFS/EC.  TEMPERATURES SHOW A WARMING TREND THROUGH
THE WEEK WITH THE WARMEST READINGS THU/FRI IN THE PREFRONTAL
ENVIRONMENT.

.PREV DISCUSSION...
135 PM...
UPDATED FORECAST TO LOWER HIGH TEMPERATURES ACROSS NORTHWEST MO DUE
TO CLOUD COVER AND CONVECTION MOVING IN. ADJUSTED POPS FOR THIS
AFTERNOON TO REFLECT ONGOING AND EXPECTED PRECIPITATION. HAVE
DROPPED POPS ALTOGETHER ACROSS FAR SOUTHERN CWA TILL THIS EVENING.

SEVERE AND HEAVY RAIN THREAT ACROSS NORTHERN HALF OF CWA NEXT 18 HRS.
CONSIDERING A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR MOST OF CWA TONIGHT DUE TO
RECENT HEAVY RAINS AS WELL AS POTENTIAL FOR 1-2 INCH RAINS.

.PREV DISCUSSION...
645 AM...
MAKING SOME REVISION TO THUNDERSTORM FORECASTS FOR TODAY. ONGOING
ELEVATED PRECIPITATION ORIENTED ALONG A MOISTURE AXIS OF TROPICAL
MOISTURE THAT EXTENDS FROM MEXICO THROUGH KANSAS INTO CENTRAL
MISSOURI.  UPPER LEVEL JET ACROSS NEBRASKA AND IOWA CONTINUES TO
SUPPORT AT LEAST SOME WEAK LIFT ACROSS THIS REGION DESPITE VEERED
OFF LOW LEVEL JET. STILL EXPECT THIS AREA TO DISSIPATE THIS MORNING
AS MID LEVELS WARM A BIT.  BIG QUESTION IS...CAN AFTERNOON HEATING
OVERCOME EXPECTED CAP TO TRIGGER MORE STORMS ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA IN THE VICINITY OF THIS MOISTURE AXIS. CURRENT THINKING IS NOT
LIKELY UNTIL THIS EVENING WHEN SOME COOLING AT THE MID LEVELS MAY
TAKE PLACE. STORMS WITH THE TRUE COLD FRONT WILL LIKELY NOT GET
ORGANIZED ALONG THIS BOUNDARY UNTIL THE OVERNIGHT HOURS IN NORTHERN
MISSOURI AS THE UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE MOVES INTO THE UPPER
MIDWEST...AIDING IN THE FRONTS SURGE TO THE SOUTH.

PC

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
328 AM CDT FRI...
MAIN FORECAST CONCERN IS WITH THREAT OF STORMS TODAY AND TONIGHT AND
HEAT THIS AFTERNOON.

00Z MODEL RUNS PRESENTED QUITE DIVERGING SCENARIOS...HAVING PROBLEMS
WITH HANDLING CONVECTION THIS MORNING AND CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK
PROBLEMS THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.  WILL LEAN TOWARD EARLIER RUNS
IDEA OF MAIN FRONT SETTING UP FROM WESTERN KANSAS INTO SOUTHEAST
NEBRASKA LATER THIS AFTERNOON...WITH CONVECTION BREAKING OUT ALONG
IT. NOT TOTALLY OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT SOMETHING COULD DEVELOP
THIS AFTERNOON IN THE WARM SECTOR THAT WILL BE ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA...BUT THINK THE BETTER CHANCES WILL BE CLOSER TO THIS
BOUNDARY...SO WILL KEEP CHANCE POPS IN NORTHWEST MISSOURI AND
NORTHEAST KANSAS FOR NOW...AND ONLY HAVE SLIGHT CHANCES FOR THE REST
OF FORECAST AREA.

WITH NORTHERN STREAM SHORT WAVE MOVING THROUGH UPPER MIDWEST BY 12Z
SATURDAY...EXPECT FRONT TO BE ABLE TO PUSH AS FAR SOUTH AS THE
SOUTHERN THIRD OF FORECAST AREA...THEN MOVE SOUTH OF AREA BY MID
MIDDAY. THUS WILL TAPER OF RAIN CHANCES SATURDAY MORNING...WITH
COOLER AIR MOVING IN. THEN WITH A SURFACE HIGH DROPPING INTO THE
MIDWEST THE FIRST OF THE WEEK...LOOKS LIKE A FAIRLY QUIET WEATHER
PATTERN THROUGH TUESDAY.

IN THE VERY SHORT TERM...HEAT WILL ALSO BE A CONCERN THIS AFTERNOON.
SOME AREAS...ESPECIALLY IN AREAS FROM ST JOSEPH THROUGH KANSAS CITY
THROUGH BUTLER AND SEDALIA MAY SEE HEAT INDICES AROUND THE 105 MARK
FOR AN HOUR OR TWO THIS AFTERNOON. SINCE NOT QUITE FITTING THE
ADVISORY CRITERIA...PLUS AREA HAS BECOME FAIRLY ACCLIMATED TO THE
HEAT THIS SUMMER...WILL USE THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK TO
HIGHLIGHT THE SITUATION.

ONGOING CONVECTION HAS ORGANIZED INTO A COMPLEX THAT SHOULD CONTINUE
TO PROGRESS EAST EARLY THIS MORNING AS WEAK WAVE INDUCED BY THIS
COMPLEX MOVES EAST IN THE FLOW.  TIMING CURRENT RADAR TRENDS...WILL
LEAVE A MENTION OF STORMS IN SOUTHEAST AREAS FOR THE START OF THE
DAY...THEN CLEAR THE AREA BY MID MORNING.

106 PM CDT FRI AUG 19 2005

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHWEST...NORTH CENTRAL

THUNDERSTORMS COULD FORM AS EARLY AS MID AFTERNOON ACROSS FAR
NORTHEAST KANSAS AND NORTHERN MISSOURI NEAR THE MISSOURI AND IOWA
BORDER. THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO FORM THIS AFTERNOON ALONG AN
INSTABILITY AXIS WHICH LIES FROM NEAR ST JOSEPH TO NORTH OF
KIRKSVILLE. DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF VERTICAL SHEAR AND INSTABILITY
PRESENT OVER THIS AREA DISCRETE SUPERCELLS ARE POSSIBLE DURING THE
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS. THE PRIMARY SEVERE THREATS WILL BE
LARGE HAIL...GOLFBALL SIZE OR LARGER...DAMAGING WINDS...TORRENTIAL
RAINS AND FREQUENT LIGHTNING. AS THE THUNDERSTORMS INTERACT WITH EACH
OTHER THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR A COMPLEX OF STORMS TO FORM WHICH
COULD EVOLVE INTO A WIDESPREAD WIND STORM EVENT.

SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS COULD SPREAD SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT AND ACROSS WEST
CENTRAL AND CENTRAL MISSOURI AS WELL AS EXTREME EAST CENTRAL KANSAS BY
LATE EVENING.

HEAVY RAINS WILL ALSO BE A THREAT OVER THE ENTIRE REGION. DUE TO THE

CENTRAL MISSOURI SATURDAY MORNING...GENERALLY SOUTH OF AN OLATHE TO
