AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
416 AM CDT SAT JUN 4 2005

.DISCUSSION...

APOLOGIZE FOR THE LATE AFD...LOTS TO EXAMINE THIS BUSY MORNING.

THE STRING OF CHALLENGING FORECASTS CONTINUES. THE RAIN SHIELDS
CONTINUE TO HOLD STRONG FOR SPRINGFIELD AND POINTS EASTWARD. IN THE
PAST 20 DAYS THERE HAS ONLY BEEN ONE DAY WITH MEASURABLE
PRECIPITATION...AND THAT ONE DAY WE ONLY HAD 0.07. UNFORTUNATELY
RAIN CHANCES FOR SPRINGFIELD AND POINTS EASTWARD REALLY DONT LOOK
ALL THAT EXCITING...THOUGH THEY ARENT ZERO SO THERE IS SOME HOPE.

FOR TODAY...WEAKENING SHORTWAVE OVER NE KS/EASTERN NEBRASKA WILL
CONTINUE TO LIFT NORTHWARD AND AWAY FROM THE AREA. SOUTHERLY
COMPONENT TO THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW HAS KEPT THE CIRRUS BLOW OFF
GENERALLY NORTH OF THE CONVECTION AND THIS TREND SHOULD CONTINUE.
SLIGHTLY ELEVATED CONVECTION HAS BEEN FIRING OVER SOUTHERN KANSAS
EARLY THIS MORNING...LIKELY NEAR THE 925MB FRONT JUDGING BY REGIONAL
PROFILER DATA. WHATEVER IS LEFT OF THIS CONVECTION WILL LIKELY CLIP
OUR NORTHWEST COUNTIES THIS MORNING BUT SHOULD GENERALLY BE
DIMINISHING.

WE SHOULD SEE A BREAK IN CONVECTION AROUND MIDDAY INTO THE AFTERNOON
AS LOW LEVEL JET WEAKENS. THIS CONVECTION COULD LEAVE BEHIND AN
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY AND ISOLATED CONVECTION COULD FIRE ALONG THAT LATE
THIS AFTERNOON SO KEPT SOME SLIGHT CHANCE POPS GOING NORTH OF 44
LATE THIS AFTERNOON.

BY LATE AFTERNOON...ALL EYES WILL LIKELY BECOME FOCUSED TO THE WEST
AS A UNSEASONABLY STRONG UPPER LOW OVER COLORADO EARLY THIS MORNING
MOVES INTO THE PLAINS. SHARPENING TROUGH/DRY LINE WILL LIKELY BE THE
FOCUS FOR EXPLOSIVE THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT LATE THIS AFTERNOON AS
NEAR 70F DEWPOINTS ARE ADVECTED NORTHWARD BENEATH VERY STEEP MID
LEVEL LAPSE RATES. SPEED MAX ROTATING AROUND THE BASE OF THE TROUGH
WILL LEAD TO VERY STRONG VERTICAL SHEAR PROFILES FAVORABLE FOR
SUPERCELLS.

AT THIS TIME...IT APPEARS AS THOUGH CONVECTIVE INITIATION WILL TAKE
PLACE WELL WEST OF THE SGF CWA...WITH SUPERCELLS MOVING EASTWARD
TOWARD THE AREA. ALTHOUGH SEVERAL PARAMETERS APPEAR TO BE COMING
TOGETHER FOR A SIGNIFICANT SVR WX EPISODE IN OUR WESTERN CWA THIS
EVENING...THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPLICATING FACTORS AS WELL.
FIRST...AMPLE SUNSHINE TODAY SHOULD ALLOW FOR HIGHS TO CLIMB INTO
THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 90S...WITH ONLY A GRADUAL FALL IN TEMPS THIS
EVENING. THIS WILL LEAD TO LARGE TEMP/DEWPOINT SPREADS AND INCREASE
THE POTENTIAL FOR COLD REAR FLANK DOWNDRAFTS WHICH WOULD BE
UNFAVORABLE FOR A SIGNIFICANT TORNADO THREAT. ALSO...THE SUNSHINE
SHOULD ALSO ALLOW FOR DEEP MIXING WHICH COULD CAUSE SOME OF THE
SURFACE MOISTURE TO MIX OUT THIS AFTERNOON. NEXT...VERY LOW SOIL
MOISTURE CONTENT MAY ALSO CUT DOWN ON SURFACE MOISTURE AND
SUBSEQUENT INSTABILITY OVER ALL BUT FAR WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA.
FINALLY...RIGHT MOVING SUPERCELLS WILL LIKELY MOVE ENE AT ABOUT
20KT...SO SOURCE REGION FOR CONVECTION OVER EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE
CWA WILL BE JUST EAST/SOUTHEAST OF OKC. THAT IS A LONG TREK FOR
THOSE STORMS TO MAKE AND THEY PROBABLY WOULDNT ARRIVE UNTIL WELL
AFTER MIDNIGHT...AND BY THEN THERE MAY NOT BE MUCH LEFT TO THEM.
WILL FOCUS THE SVR POTENTIAL IN THE MORNING HWO OVER FAR WESTERN
PORTIONS OF THE CWA WITH HAIL/WIND THE PRIMARY THREATS...THOUGH THE
TORNADO THREAT IS NOT ZERO.

SURFACE TROUGH IS THEN FORECAST TO LAY OUT ACROSS THE CWA SUNDAY
WITH POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL CONVECTION SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND
EVENING ALONG THE BOUNDARY. MODERATE TO STRONG INSTABILITY SHOULD BE
PRESENT...HOWEVER THERE DOESNT APPEAR TO BE A STRONG SHORT WAVE
COMING THROUGH AND VERTICAL WIND SHEAR PROFILES WOULD ONLY SUPPORT
MULTICELLULAR CONVECTION.

NO TIME TO MAKE ANY CHANGES OR EVEN LOOK AT MUCH BEYOND SUNDAY THIS
MORNING.

.AVIATION...

FOR 06Z TAFS...WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP PRECIP OUT OF SPRINGFIELD TAF
FOR NOW WITH MAIN AREA OF CONVECTION STILL A FEW COUNTIES WEST OF
OUR FORECAST AREA AND STORM CELL MOVEMENT TO THE NORTHEAST. THE
JOPLIN AIRPORT SHOULD SEE SOME PRECIP BETWEEN 10Z AND 14Z BEFORE
STORM COMPLEX WEAKENS LATER THIS MORNING.

OTHERWISE BUMPED SOUTHEAST WIND SPEEDS  UP SLIGHTLY AT SPRINGFIELD
FOR FUNNEL EFFECT.

...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE TONIGHT...

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

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

  WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED:

  THUNDERSTORMS...SOME MAY PRODUCE:
    TORRENTIAL RAINFALL THAT COULD LEAD TO FLASH FLOODING.
    HAIL TO THE SIZE OF GOLF BALLS.
    DAMAGING WINDS TO 70 MPH.
    AND POSSIBLY AN ISOLATED TORNADO OR TWO.

  AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:

  SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED THIS MORNING MAINLY NORTHWEST
  OF INTERSTATE 44.

  SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE THEN FORECAST TO MOVE INTO WESTERN
  PORTIONS OF THE OUTLOOK AREA THIS EVENING...SLOWLY SPREADING
  EASTWARD ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE OUTLOOK AREA OVERNIGHT.

  DISCUSSION:

  SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL AFFECT NORTHERN AND WESTERN PORTIONS
  OF THE OUTLOOK AREA THIS MORNING. THE PRIMARY HAZARD FROM THESE
  THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL...HOWEVER AN ISOLATED
  SEVERE THUNDERSTORM IS POSSIBLE. HEAVY RAINFALL COULD LEAD TO
  FLASH FLOODING OVER SOUTHEAST KANSAS WHERE HEAVY RAIN YESTERDAY
  LEFT THE GROUND SATURATED.

  SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS ARE FORECAST TO DEVELOP TO THE WEST OF THE
  REGION LATE THIS AFTERNOON...PUSHING EASTWARD INTO FAR WESTERN
  PORTIONS OF THE OUTLOOK AREA BY EARLY TO MID EVENING. THESE
  THUNDERSTORMS MAY WEAKEN SOME BEFORE MOVING INTO THE OUTLOOK
  AREA...HOWEVER PRESENT INDICATIONS ARE THAT SOME OF THE
  THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN SEVERE. THE HIGHEST TORNADO POTENTIAL
  WILL BE WEST AND NORTHWEST OF THE OUTLOOK AREA...HOWEVER THE
  TORNADO THREAT IS NOT ZERO TONIGHT WEST OF HIGHWAY 13. THE
  GREATEST SEVERE WEATHER THREAT SHOULD BE VERY LARGE HAIL...TO THE
  SIZE OF GOLF BALLS OR LARGER...AS WELL AS DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS
  OF 65 MPH.

  IF THE THUNDERSTORMS PERSIST INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS
  TONIGHT...THEN THEY WOULD LIKELY SPREAD EASTWARD ACROSS CENTRAL
  AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE OUTLOOK AREA. THUNDERSTORMS WILL
  LIKELY BEGIN TO WEAKEN BY LATE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT WITH A
  DECREASING THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER AS THEY MOVE EASTWARD.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

  THERE IS A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY. IN ADDITION TO LOCALLY
  HEAVY RAINFALL...ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WITH LARGE HAIL AND
  DAMAGING WINDS ARE POSSIBLE.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

  EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AND STORM SPOTTERS ARE URGED TO RELAY REPORTS
  OF FLOODING THIS MORNING TO THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE.
  ALSO...SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL PROBABLY BE NEEDED TONIGHT...MAINLY
  WEST OF HIGHWAY 13.
