...SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBLE LATE TONIGHT AND TUESDAY...
...MUCH COLDER AIR ON THE WAY...

.DISCUSSION...

QUICK UPDATE. ELEVATED STORMS ONGOING NORTH OF THE THE SURFACE WARM
FRONT OVER NORTHERN AR. SHOULD SEE RAPID MOISTURE ADVECTION AND LIFT
OVER THE FRONT AS LOW LEVEL WIND FLOW INCREASES IN RESPONSE TO
DEEPENING STORM OVER THE PLAINS. 00Z KSGF SOUNDING SHOWS INVERSION
UP TO JUST ABOVE 850MB AND NOT ALL THAT IMPRESSIVE ABOVE THE
INVERSION EITHER. WITH 700-500MB HEIGHT FALLS...SHOULD SEE
STEEPENING MIDLEVEL LAPSE RATES WITH TIME TONIGHT...ALONG WITH
INCREASINGLY WARM/MOIST AIR ADVECTION AT LOW LEVELS. DEEP LIFT WILL
OCCUR BY MIDNIGHT AS AREA FALLS UNDER THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF
AN UPPER 300MB JET. COUPLED JET MAY ALSO ENHANCE LIFT LATE TONIGHT
AND MONDAY MORNING AS UPSTREAM 120KT JET NOSES INTO SE KS/WESTERN
MO. ELEVATED SEVERE TSTMS WITH HAIL WILL BECOME MORE LIKELY WITH
TIME THIS EVENING. BY LATE TONIGHT WITH WARM FRONT LIFTING INTO
SOUTHERN MO...NAM POINT SOUNDING NEAR WEST PLAINS BY 12Z LOOKS
FAVORABLE FOR NEAR SURFACE BASED CONVECTION AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING
DEEPENING SURFACE LOW AND COLD FRONT WITH 0-3KM HELICITY APPROACHING
500 M2/S2. WONT TAKE MUCH INSTABILITY GIVEN THE PROGGED WIND
PROFILES TO GET SUPERCELLS GOING TONIGHT IN FAR SOUTHERN MO.

ANOTHER PROBLEM IN THE NEAR TERM: FOG. STRATUS ALREADY WIDESPREAD
NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT...AND WILL LIKELY BUILD DOWN WITH TIME. WILL
NEED TO WATCH TRENDS...IF IT BECOMES WIDESPREAD A SHORT FUSED
NPW/FOG ADVISORY MAY BE REQUIRED. DSA

...PREVIOUS DISCUSSION 245 PM...

WARM AIR ADVECTION SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS HAD SPREAD
EAST INTO SOUTHEAST MISSOURI AT EARLY AFTERNOON. THIS ACTIVITY WAS
WELL NORTH OF A WARM FRONT THAT WAS LOCATED ACROSS SOUTHERN
ARKANSAS...AND EAST OF A SHORTWAVE LIFTING NORTHEAST ACROSS NORTHERN
MISSOURI. A MOISTURE RICH AIRMASS WAS IN PLACE SOUTH OF THIS FRONT
WITH SURFACE DEWPOINTS IN THE MIDDLE 60S.

A VERY ACTIVE PATTERN IS ANTICIPATED TONIGHT AND TUESDAY AS A
POWERFUL AUTUMN STORM SYSTEM TAKES SHAPE. A 135 KT JET STREAKING
FROM THE NORTHWEST U.S. WILL CARVE OUT A SHARP UPPER TROUGH ACROSS
THE CENTRAL U.S. BY TUESDAY MORNING. STRONG SYNOPTIC SCALE LIFT
COUPLED WITH STRONG WARM ADVECTION IN ADVANCE OF THE WARM FRONT
LIFTING NORTH OUT OF ARKANSAS WILL CAUSE THUNDERSTORMS TO INCREASE
IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY TONIGHT. ALTHOUGH THE STORMS WILL
INITIALLY BE ELEVATED IN NATURE...STRONG WIND FIELDS WILL SUPPORT
THE POTENTIAL OF LARGE HAIL. AS THE WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH INTO FAR
SOUTHERN MISSOURI DURING THE PREDAWN HOURS...THUNDERSTORMS MAY
BECOME SURFACE BASED THUS INCREASING THE THREAT OF DAMAGING WINDS.
DESPITE WEAK SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY STRONG LOW LEVEL SHEAR WILL
ALSO SUPPORT THE POTENTIAL OF TORNADOES TOWARD SUNRISE AND INTO
TUESDAY MORNING ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT. THE SEVERE
WEATHER THREAT WILL BE MAXIMIZED NEAR AND SOUTH OF A DEEPENING
SURFACE LOW THAT WILL TRACK FROM NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA TO EAST CENTRAL
MISSOURI. THE POTENTIAL OF STRAIGHT LINE DAMAGING WINDS WILL ALSO
INCREASE TUESDAY MORNING AS A PROGGED 85 KT MID LEVEL JET STREAKS
INTO THE AREA.

SYNOPTIC PATTERN ALONG WITH IMPRESSIVE MOISTURE TRANSPORT...AND
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES RISING TO NEAR 1.25 WILL SUPPORT LOCALLY
HEAVY RAINFALL AMOUNTS. THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL WILL LIKELY FALL ALONG
AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 44. LOCAL AMOUNTS IN EXCESS OF TWO INCHES
WILL BE POSSIBLE WHERE TRAINING CELLS SET UP. GIVEN THE RELATIVELY
DRY ANTECEDENT CONDITIONS A FLOOD WATCH WILL NOT BE ISSUED AT THIS
TIME.

MUCH COLDER AIR WILL PLUNGE INTO THE AREA TUESDAY AS THE POWERFUL
COLD FRONT SWEEPS EAST ACROSS THE OZARKS. TEMPERATURES WILL FALL
DURING THE DAY WITH WINDS OF 25 TO 35 MPH COMMON. HIGHER WIND GUSTS
TO 45 MPH CERTAINLY LOOK POSSIBLE CONSIDERING VERY STRONG COLD AIR
ADVECTION AND 925 MB WINDS ON THE ORDER OF 50 KTS. WIND ADVISORY MAY
BE NEEDED TUESDAY BUT WILL LET LATER SHIFTS ISSUE WHEN DETAILS
BECOME CLEARER.  PRECIPITATION SHOULD QUICKLY END BEHIND THE FRONT
TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND MID LEVEL DRY SLOT SPREAD INTO THE AREA.
HOWEVER CANNOT RULE OUT SPRINKLES OR EVEN FLURRIES ACROSS CENTRAL
MISSOURI IN CLOSER PROXIMITY TO DEEPER MOISTURE WRAPPING AROUND THE
EXITING SYSTEM.

COOL TEMPERATURES AND MORE TRANQUIL WEATHER CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL
THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK. THE COLDEST TEMPERATURES SO FAR THIS
SEASON WILL LIKELY OCCUR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY MORNINGS. LITTLE
CHANGE WAS MADE TO THE EXTENDED FORECAST.

STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS BEHIND THE FRONT LATE TUESDAY MORNING AND
AFTERNOON.

...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE TONIGHT AND TUESDAY MORNING...

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF THE MISSOURI
OZARKS AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

  WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED:

THUNDERSTORMS...THE STRONGEST STORMS MAY PRODUCE:

HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF HALF DOLLARS
FREQUENT LIGHTNING.
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL.
DAMAGING WINDS AND ISOLATED TORNADOES OVER SOUTHERN MISSOURI AFTER 3
AM.

  AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:

THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP OVER SOUTHERN MISSOURI EARLY THIS
EVENING. INSTABILITY AND WINDS ALOFT WILL BE SUPPORT SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS ALONG AND SOUTH OF A PINEVILLE TO SALEM LINE THIS
EVENING WITH LARGE HAIL BEING THE INITIAL THREAT.

THE CHANCES FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL LIFT NORTHWARD LATER TONIGHT
AFFECTING MUCH OF THE AREA AFTER MIDNIGHT. WHILE LARGE HAIL WILL BE
THE MAIN STORM HAZARD NORTH OF MISSOURI HIGHWAY 60 AND IN SOUTHEAST
KANSAS...AN ENHANCED THREAT OF DAMAGING WINDS AND ISOLATED TORNADOES
WILL ALSO OCCUR LATE TONIGHT AFTER 3 AM IN COUNTIES SOUTH OF
MISSOURI HIGHWAY 60.

  DISCUSSION:

THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THIS EVENING OVER SOUTHERN
MISSOURI AS A STORM SYSTEM STRENGTHENS ACROSS THE CENTRAL U.S. AND A
WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH ACROSS ARKANSAS. THE INITIAL THREAT EARLY
TONIGHT WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL. HOWEVER...AS
THE WARM FRONT LIFTS INTO FAR SOUTHERN MISSOURI DURING THE PREDAWN
HOURS...THE POTENTIAL OF DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLY A TORNADO WILL
INCREASE. THE RISK OF DAMAGING WINDS AND TORNADOES WILL BE DEPENDENT
ON AVAILABLE INSTABILITY...AND THE POSITION OF A STRENGTHENING LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA AND THE ASSOCIATED WARM
FRONT. HOWEVER WITH A STRONG WIND FIELD IN PLACE...ONLY WEAK
INSTABILITY WILL BE NEEDED TO SUPPORT SEVERE STORMS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY TUESDAY MORNING ACROSS
SOUTHERN MISSOURI. ALTHOUGH THE INSTABILITY WILL BE LIMITED...A
VERY STRONG WIND FIELD WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
SEVERE STORMS WITH DAMAGING WINDS AND POSSIBLY ISOLATED TORNADOES.

THE GREATEST RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE EAST OF A LINE FROM
ROLLA TO BRANSON. THE STORMS WILL END BY EARLY AFTERNOON AS A
STRONG COLD FRONT SWEEPS EAST ACROSS THE AREA.

ALSO...STRONG NORTHWEST WINDS AND MUCH COLDER AIR WILL FOLLOW THE
FRONTAL PASSAGE TUESDAY WITH WIND GUST BETWEEN 30 AND 40 MPH.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE REQUIRED TONIGHT AND ON TUESDAY UNTIL
AFTER THE COLD FRONT PASSES THROUGH THE REGION.
