AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
650 PM CDT FRI AUG 18 2006

.DISCUSSION...
THE 12Z SHORT-TERM MODELS (TIL MONDAY)...A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES
WILL BREAK THE H500 HI THAT HAS BEEN IN PLACE THE PAST FEW
DAYS...LEADING TO A DEVELOPING TROF OVER ERN NOAM AND RIDGE OVER
WRN NOAM. THE FIRST SHORTWAVE...IS ACTUALLY AN OLD MCV DRIVING
ACROSS NRN MO AND WILL PUSH THRU THE NRN FA THIS EVENING. OTHERS
WILL FOLLOW LATER ON SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. AT THE
SFC...STATIONARY FRONT OVER SRN IA WITH ITS RESULTANT OUTFLOW
DRAPED ACROSS AREAS JUST S OF THE I-70 CORRIDOR WILL CONTINUE THRU
THIS EVENING...BEFORE CDFNT APPROACHING FROM THE NW WILL PUSH INTO
MO LATER TONIGHT...ARRIVING AT THE NWRN CORNER OF THE FA EARLY ON
SATURDAY. THIS CDFNT WILL THEN PUSH THRU THE FA ON SATURDAY...AND
SLOW DOWN ALONG SRN MO/SRN IL FROM SATURDAY NIGHT ON. HI PRES THEN
BUILDS IN FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY. GFS STANDS ALONE ON DEVELOPING
FRONTAL WAVE EARLY SUNDAY AND SLOWLY PROPAGATING IT E ON MONDAY.
REJECTED THIS SOLUTION FOR NOW.

FOR TONIGHT...LOOK FOR DISORGANIZED CONVECTION ACROSS THE ERN
OZARKS TO FADE EARLY THIS EVENING...WHILE FOCUS WILL SHIFT NWD
WITH MCV ACROSS THE NRN FA AND MORE SFC-BASED CONVECTION ALONG THE
MO SIDE OF THE I-70 CORRIDOR. THINGS ARE EXPECTED TO START TO
SETTLE DOWN FROM LATE EVENING ON...WITH THE BULK OF THE PCPN
THREAT BEING FROM I-70 NWD. DUE TO W-E ORIENTED OR EXPECTED
ORIENTED CONVECTION...LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL A POSSIBILITY FOR
AREAS IN THE NRN FA THIS PERIOD. STAYED CLOSE TO MOS ON MIN TEMPS.

FOR SATURDAY...KEPT CHANCE CATEGORY POPS THIS PERIOD AS IT LOOKS
TO BE VERY DISORGANIZED IN THE MORNING...AS CDFNT STARTS PUSH INTO
FA. BY AFTERNOON...LOOK FOR BEST CHANCES TO ONCE AGAIN BE ALONG
THE I-70 CORRIDOR AS WELL AS AREAS TO THE S. BELIEVE ABUNDANT
CLOUD COVER THIS PERIOD FOR MOST AREAS WILL KEEP TEMPS FROM
RUNNING AWAY...AND WENT BELOW MOS TEMPS IN THE N DUE TO BEING POST
FRONTAL FROM THE START...AND ON THE HIGH SIDE OF MOS ELSEWHERE DUE
TO ITS HISTORY OF SHOOTING LOW ON RESULTANT MAXES.

FOR SUNDAY/MONDAY...ONLY HELD ON TO A SMALL SLIGHT CHANCE FOR A
POP ON SUNDAY IN THE S...OTHERWISE DRY...DUE TO UNCERTAINTIES WITH
REGARDS TO WHERE THE FRONT WILL END UP...BUT SHOULD PUSH
COMPLETELY S OF THE FA BY SUNDAY NIGHT. MOS BLEND GENERALLY
ACCEPTED...ALTHOUGH LEANED ON THE HIGH SIDE FOR MAXES.

FOR THE EXTENDED PERIOD (MONDAY NIGHT - FRIDAY)...MODELS ARE IN
REASONABLE AGREEMENT ON THE H500 PATTERN...WITH DEEPENING TROF
EXPECTED OVER ERN NOAM DURING MID WEEK AS RIDGE AMPLIFIES IN THE W.
BY LATE WEEK...IT APPEARS A RETROGRADING OF THE OVERALL PATTERN WILL
TAKE PLACE...AS RIDGE AXIS OVER WRN NOAM SLIDES INTO THE ERN PAC
WITH TROF BACKPEDALING INTO CNTRL NOAM.  THIS WILL RESULT IN PUTTING
THE EXTREME HEAT IN CHECK WITH SEASONABLE TEMPS FOR LATE AUGUST.
MAIN PCPN CHANCES WILL REVOLVE AROUND CDFNT EXPECTED TO PASS THRU
DURING MID WEEK. MODELS HAVE HAD THEIR DIFFERENCES WITH REGARDS TO
TIMING...BUT SEEM TO HAVE A MUCH BETTER CONSENSUS NOW WITH EXPECTED
FROPA DURING LATE TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. FOR NOW HAVE JUST
PLACED SLIGHT CHANCES IN AS TIMING OF DAY NOT IDEAL...AND FRONT
EXPECTED TO WEAKEN AS IT PUSHES THRU THE FA.

.AVIATION...
FOR THE 00Z TAFS...CONVECTION IS BECOME INCREASINGLY ORGANIZED OVR
CENTRAL MISSOURI TO THE NORTH AND WEST OF KCOU. THIS ACTIVITY
APPEARS TO BE TRACKING INVOF OF AN OLD OUTFLOW BNDRY. THE WSWLY
LLJ IS EXPECTED TO RAMP UP THIS EVENING AND WITH A COORIDOOR OF
UNSTABLE AIR ALONG ITS PATH...ANTICIPATE THIS CONVECTION TO GROW
UPSCALE INTO AN MCS AND TRACK EWD PRODUCING GUSTY WINDS AND HEAVY
RAIN. TEMPO GROUPS IN THE NEW ISSUANCE REFLECT HIGHEST PROBABILITY
OF TSRA AT THE TAF SITE. SHRA AND TSRA COULD LINGER LONGER IF
SYSTEM GETS EAST-WEST ORIENTATION ALONG I-70 BUT CONFIDENCE IS
LOW ATTM. BNDRY/FRONT SHOULD MOVE SOUTH OF I-70 BY SATURDAY
MORNING WITH POTPOURRI OF CU AND MID CLOUD THRU THE DAY.
