AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
400 AM CDT WED JUN 8 2005

.DISCUSSION...
JUICY AIR WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE 70S CONTINUES TO STREAM UP OUT OF
THE GULF INTO THE PLAINS THIS MORNING.  LOW LEVEL JET IS SCREAMING
OVER THE PLAINS TOO AT 30 TO 50 KTS THIS MORNING ACCORDING TO THE
RUC...AND WEVE GOT A BIG OLD UGLY MCS MOVING ACROSS NORTHEAST
NEBRASKA...EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA...AND MINNESOTA THIS MORNING TO
PROVE IT.  OLD-SCHOOL CFM VECTORS OFF THE RUC AND NAM WOULD TEND TO
WANT TO DROP THE MCS SOUTH OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS...WHILE THE NEWER
FORWARD PROPAGATING VECTORS WANT TO MOVE THE MCS EAST-NORTHEAST.
THERE SEEMS TO BE A DISTINCT--IF SLOW--SOUTHWARD PUSH TO THE
ECHOMASS SO THE ORIGINAL CFM VECTORS WOULD SEEM TO BE DOING BETTER
WITH THIS SYSTEM.  THIS SOUTHWARD PUSH MIGHT BE IN RESPONSE TO THE
VEERING OF THE LOW LEVEL JET AND SUBSEQUENT SOUTHEASTWARD MIGRATION
OF THE GREATEST MASS CONVERGENCE...

REGARDLESS...IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THIS MCS HAS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN
IOWA IN ITS SIGHTS...AND POSSIBLY EVEN NORTHERN MISSOURI.  WOULD
EXPECT THE MCS TO GRADUALLY DIE OUT AS THE LOW LEVEL JET WEAKENS
THIS MORNING...BUT THE BOUNDARIES IT LEAVES BEHIND SHOULD CONTINUE
TO PROPAGATE SOUTHEAST INTO OUR AREA.  NAM FORECAST SOUNDINGS FOR
NORTHEAST AND CENTRAL MISSOURI SHOW IN EXCESS OF 6000 J/KG OF CAPE.
NCEP WAS THINKING THAT THE NAM MIGHT BE OVERDONE WITH ITS MOISTURE
FORECASTS TODAY...BUT EVEN IF WE KNOCK OFF 2000 JOULES...4000 CAPE
IS STILL ENOUGH TO RAISE THE BLOOD PRESSURE OF ANY WARNING
FORECASTER.  0-6KM BULK SHEAR ISNT ALL THAT IMPRESSIVE THIS
AFTERNOON OVER THE STATE...WITH MAXIMUM VALUES MAYBE AS HIGH AS
30-35 KTS OVER NORTHERN SECTIONS...BUT WITH 4000-6000 CAPE AND
LITTLE OR NO CINH WE COULD SEE SOME ORGANIZED MULTICELLS/QLCS
DEVELOPMENT.  NO REAL WAY OF TELLING EXACTLY WHERE THE CELLS WILL
POP THIS AFTERNOON SO IVE BROAD BRUSHED CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE AREA
WITH THE HIGHEST PROBABILITIES UP IN NORTHERN MISSOURI...BUT EXPECT
THAT JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE IN THE CWFA COULD SEE RAIN TODAY.  IN
FACT...A FEW CELLS HAVE FORMED IN THE MID-LEVEL INSTABILITY OVER
EASTERN MISSOURI AND SOUTHWEST ILLINOIS.  NOTHING MORE THAN ISOLATED
IN COVERAGE AT THIS TIME...BUT I HAVE INCLUDED ISOLATED WORDING IN
THE FORECAST THIS MORNING.

THE FORECAST DOESNT GET ANY EASIER AFTER TODAY...  WE STAY STUCK IN
THIS SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT INTO THE WEEKEND.  WITH MCS DEVELOPMENT
OVER THE PLAINS EACH NIGHT WELL SEE THEIR REMNANTS SHUTTLING ACROSS
THE MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY EACH DAY.  I STILL THINK THE PRIMARY RAIN
THREAT WILL BE ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN MISSOURI AS WELL AS WEST
CENTRAL ILLINOIS WHERE THERE WILL BE LESS INFLUENCE FROM THE UPPER
RIDGING TO OUR EAST...BUT CANT RULE OUT RAIN FOR ANYWHERE OVER THE
CWFA.  HAVE THEREFORE KEPT VARYING DEGREES OF CHANCE WORDING IN THE
FORECAST INTO THE WEEKEND.

GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO LOOK PRETTY REASONABLE SO IVE
FOLLOWED THEM CLOSELY...WITH A MINOR TWEAK UPWARD IN THE FIRST 2
DAYS AS A NOD TO PERSISTENCE.

WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 40 MPH AND ISOLATED 1/2 INCH HAIL.

THE CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUES ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA

COMBINED WITH A WARM AND HUMID AIRMASS OVER THE REGION WILL MAKE THE

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY ACROSS THE AREA. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS
CONTINUE TO BE THE PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER THREATS.
