AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
412 PM CDT SAT JUN 3 2006

.DISCUSSION...
FORECAST CONTINUES TO BE DIFFICULT TO PIN DOWN AS NORTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT HAS DEVELOPED...WITH A 5900+ METER RIDGE OVER THE SOUTHWEST
CONUS AND 6400 METER CUTOFF LOW SPINNING OVER UPSTATE NEW YORK.
TRANSITION ZONE BETWEEN THESE TWO SYSTEMS IS STILL FORECAST TO HANG
OVER THE CWFA THROUGH MOST OF THE NEXT 7 DAYS.  AS MENTIONED IN
PREVIOUS DISCUSSIONS...ANY LONGITUDINAL SHIFT IN THIS PATTERN WILL
MAKE MY TEMPERATURE FORECAST HORRIBLY WRONG OVER THE NEXT WEEK.
STILL THINK THAT LACK OF CONFIDENCE AND POTENTIAL FOR SUBTLE SHIFTS
IN THE PATTERN NECESSITATES A CONSERVATIVE APPROACH.  HAVE STUCK
CLOSE TO MOS GUIDANCE--WHICH IS REMAINS PRETTY CLOSE
CLIMATOLOGY--THROUGH THE PERIOD.

PRECIPITATION CHANCES ARE ALSO DIFFICULT TO PIN DOWN WITH THE AREA
STUCK IN THIS NORTHWEST FLOW PATTERN.  COMPLICATING THINGS IS THE
WEAK LOW LEVEL JET WHICH NEVER SEEMS TO STRAY TOO FAR FROM WESTERN
OR CENTRAL MISSOURI.  THIS SHOULD ALLOW FOR NIGHT TIME CONVECTION TO
DEVELOP OVER THE PLAINS OR WESTERN MISSOURI INTO SOUTHERN IOWA AND
THEN ROLL SOUTHWARD IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW.  LEFT OVER BOUNDARIES
FROM NIGHT TIME CONVECTION COULD BE FOCI FOR DAYTIME CONVECTION.
WOULD THINK THERES AT LEAST A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR PRECIPITATION JUST
ABOUT EVERY PERIOD FOR THE WHOLE WEEK UNTIL WE BREAK THIS PATTERN.
IT LOOKS LIKE THE HIGHEST THREAT FOR PRECIPITATION WILL BE ON MONDAY
NIGHT AND TUESDAY ACROSS THE CWFA.  LOW LEVEL JET DRIVEN
PRECIPITATION IS FORECAST BY THE NAM TO DEVELOP OVER IOWA DURING THE
EVENING MONDAY NIGHT AND ROLL SOUTH INTO MISSOURI BY TUESDAY
MORNING.  DUE TO THE AFORE-MENTIONED UNCERTAINTIES ASSOCIATED WITH
THIS PATTERN HAVE NOT GONE HIGHER THAN CHANCE POPS FOR THIS
POTENTIAL SYSTEM ON MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY.

.AVIATION...
FOR THE 18Z TAFS...A WK SFC FRONT CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM SRN IA
INTO A SFC LOW IN CNTRL IL THEN INTO SE INDIANA. THE AIRMASS IS
DESTABILIZING INVOF OF THE BNDRY WITH CONTINUED HEATING...WITH
CAPES ATTM AOA 1000 J/KG. ANTICIPATING THAT WE WILL BEGIN TO SEE A
CU FIELD DVLP BY EARLY AFTERNOON WITH SCT TSRA DVLPG ALG THE BNDRY BY
MID AFTERNOON. QUESTION FOR THIS AVIATION FCST IS THE WESTWARD
EXTENT OF THE CONVECTION AS THE MODEL GUIDANCE ALL SUGGESTS THIS
FRONT WILL SHIFT TOWARDS THE MS RIVER BY 00Z. GIVEN THE LOW
OVERALL COVERAGE OF STORMS AND THEREFORE THE UNCERTAINTY OF TSRA
IMPACTING THE TAF SITES SPANNING THE MS RIVER...HAVE OPTED ATTM TO
JUST INCLUDE CB VERBAGE IN THE CLOUD GROUP FROM MID AFTERNOON INTO
THE EARLY EVENING. THIS FRONT SHOULD CONT TO MOVE WESTWARD TNGT.
THERE IS SOME SUGGESTION THAT LATER TNGT THERE CUD A CHANCE OF
SHRA ASSOCD WITH LOW-MID LEVEL WAA. THERE IS EVEN MORE UNCERTAINTY
THAT THIS WILL ACTUALLY PAN OUT AND AS SUCH HAVE JUST INCLUDED
SOME MID CLDS IN THE FCST.
