NWS Kansas City, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 18, 3:53 PM CDT, 4 hours 15 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 18, 3:53 PM CDT, 4 hours 15 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO 353 PM CDT THU AUG 18 2005 .DISCUSSION... AFTERNOON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS VIGOROUS UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER SOUTHERN ALBERTA/SASKATCHEWAN. MEANWHILE...SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS ASSOCIATED LOW OVER MN/IA...WITH A CONFLUENCE ZONE STRETCHING SOUTHWEST INTO NORTHERN MISSOURI. CU FIELD HAS INCREASED ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI THIS AFTERNOON. DECENT MOISTURE POOLING IN THIS REGION (WITH AFTERNOON DEWPOINTS IN THE MID 70S)...COMBINED WITH A FAIRLY UNSTABLE AIRMASS...MAY PROVIDE ENOUGH SUPPORT FOR THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY THIS EVENING. ASSISTANCE OF INCREASING LOW LEVEL JET WILL PROVIDE SLIGHTLY BETTER FOCUS TONIGHT ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI...SO HAVE MAINTAINED 30 POPS NORTH OF THE MISSOURI RIVER. TOMORROW WILL BE ANOTHER HOT DAY AS 850 MB TEMPS MODERATE A COUPLE OF DEGREES. ANTICIPATE HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 90S FOR MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA...WITH HEAT INDICES IN THE 100 TO 105 DEGREE RANGE. AFOREMENTIONED UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL DIVE SOUTHEAST ON FRIDAY...AND BRING A COLD FRONT KNOCKING ON OUR DOORSTEP LATE FRIDAY AFTERNOON. HAVE RETAINED THE HIGHEST POPS (50-60) BETWEEN 00Z AND 12Z SATURDAY. BOTH NAM AND GFS SOLUTIONS ACCELERATE THE FRONT ACROSS MISSOURI...WITH PRECIPITATION ENDING DURING THE MORNING HOURS. IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT...EXPECT HIGH TEMPERATURES TO COOL INTO THE 80S FOR THE WEEKEND. A SURFACE RIDGE IS IN PLACE THROUGH THE BEGINNING OF THE WEEK...WITH A SLOW WARMING TREND. THE MID RANGE MODELS BRING THE NEXT WEATHER MAKER IN LATE PERIOD NEAR DAY 7. THE MODELS ARE NOT IN AGREEMENT WITH THE TIMING OF FROPA...WITH THE DGEX EARLY IN THE DAY ON THURSDAY...RANGING DOWN TO THE GFS THAT DOESNT BRING IT THROUGH UNTIL FRIDAY. DUE TO UNCERTAINTIES...HAVE NOT INTRODUCED POPS YET AGAIN...AND WILL WAIT ANOTHER RUN. HAVE CONTINUED TO TREND SKY/TEMPS THAT DIRECTION. LS/SM/LVK && .PREVIOUS DISCUSSION... 315 AM CDT THU... THUNDERSTORM CHANCES THROUGH SATURDAY AND HOT TEMPERATURES TODAY AND FRIDAY ARE THE MAIN CONCERNS IN SHORT TERM. CURRENT ACTIVITY OCCURRING IN AN AREA OF ISENTROPIC LIFT WHICH SHOWS UP NICELY ON 310K SURFACE OF THE NAM. THIS LIFT SHOULD BE SHIFTING TO THE EAST OF FORECAST AREA BY LATE MORNING. BUT THEN HAVE TO WATCH WHERE SURFACE TROUGH...CURRENTLY IN EASTERN NEBRASKA...SETTLES THIS AFTERNOON AS SHORT WAVE ASSOCIATED WITH IT MOVES OFF INTO THE GREAT LAKES. LIKELY WILL STALL NEAR IOWA MISSOURI BORDER. WITH MOISTURE EXPECTED TO POOL ALONG IT LATER THIS AFTERNOON...WE MAY SEE SOME STORMS POPPING UP IN ITS VICINITY TOWARD EVENING. WILL GO WITH ONLY SLIGHT CHANCES FOR THE AFTERNOON PERIOD DUE TO LACK OF A TRIGGER OTHER THAN CONVECTIVE TEMPS...BUT INTRODUCE CHANCE POPS FOR TONIGHT IN NORTHERN MISSOURI WITH 950 TO 900 MB WINDS PICKING UP AND CONVERGING INTO THAT REGION. IN WAKE OF STORMS THIS MORNING...SHOULD SEE CLEARING AND SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WINDS PICKING UP AND ADVECTING IN MUCH WARMER AIR. WITH DEWPOINTS ALSO RISING...WILL LIKELY SEE SOME AFTERNOON HEAT INDICES CLIMB JUST ABOVE THE 100 DEGREE MARK. NOT ENOUGH TO WARRANT A HEAT ADVISORY BUT WILL CERTAINLY HIGHLIGHT IN THE HWO. ANOTHER HOT DAY EXPECTED ON FRIDAY BEFORE THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH REGION FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY MORNING. THIS FRONT WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH A STRONGER NORTHERN STREAM SHORT WAVE CURRENTLY EVIDENT IN WESTERN CANADA ON THE WV LOOP. THIS WAVE EXPECTED TO DEEPEN A LITTLE MORE THEN SKIRT ALONG CANADIAN BORDER ON FRIDAY. STRENGTH AND SPEED OF THIS WAVE INDICATES SURFACE FRONT SHOULD HAVE NO PROBLEM DIVING SOUTHWARD FRIDAY NIGHT...AND MAY PRODUCE SOME SEVERE WEATHER...WHICH WILL BE HIGHLIGHTED IN HWO. THIS FRONT WILL MARK THE END TO OUR MINI HEAT WAVE THAT WILL OCCUR TODAY AND FRIDAY. PC 845 PM CDT WED... HAVE ADJUSTED PRECIPITATION CHANCES AND CLOUD COVER A LITTLE FOR TONIGHT. LATEST MOISTURE IMAGERY INDICATES A SHORTWAVE TRACKING ENE ALONG THE NEB/SD BORDER. IT APPEARS THAT THE BRUNT OF THE UPPER DYNAMICS WILL TRACK NORTH OF THE CWA. THE SHORTWAVE...ALONG WITH A DRY LINE IN WRN NEB...HAS TRIGGERED THUNDERSTORMS NR THE LBF AREA. IF THIS ACTIVITY HOLD TOGETHER AS IT MOVES EAST...IT WOULD PROBABLY NOT REACH THE EXTREME NWRN CWA UNTIL AROUND DAYBREAK. WILL NOT REMOVE POPS ACROSS THE WRN ZONES ENTIRELY AS THERE IS SOME CONCERN ABOUT THETAE ADV LATE TONIGHT. NAM LOOKS FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE WITH THE 310-315K THETAE ADVECTION FOR LATE TONIGHT. HOWEVER... BELIEVE THAT THE H8 FLOW OF THE NAM LOOKS TOO STRONG. PREFER WEAKER VERSION OF THE GFS. REGARDLESS...WILL HOLD A THREAT OF THUNDERSTORMS FOR MAINLY THE NWRN HALF OF THE CWA FOR LATE TONIGHT.
