AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
159 PM CDT MON MAY 29 2006

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...
UPDRAFTS ARE STARTING TO INITIATE ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI...AND
WOULD SUSPECT THAT OTHER AREAS OF INITIATION WILL OCCUR OVER THE
NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.  PARTICULARLY OVER WEST CENTRAL MISSOURI
(VERNON...ST. CLAIR...BARTON COUNTIES)...WHERE OUTFLOW FROM THE EAST
KANSAS CONVECTION IS BEGINNING TO INTERACT WITH THE UNSTABLE
AIRMASS.  EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS (BOURBON...CRAWFORD...AND
CHEROKEE) COUNTIES MAY BE IN A GOOD AREA FOR INITIATION AS WELL.

AS EXPECTED...THE AIRMASS OVER SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL MISSOURI HAS
BECOME QUITE UNSTABLE...AND PRIME FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.  THE LATEST ANALYSIS WOULD SUGGEST THAT 100MB
CAPES HAVE INCREASED TO VALUES BETWEEN 1500 - 2500 J/KG.  WEAK WIND
FIELDS THROUGH THE ENTIRE ATMOSPHERIC COLUMN INDICATE THAT SHEAR FOR
ORGANIZED STORMS REMAINS VERY LIMITED.  HOWEVER...LARGE AMOUNTS OF
CAPE WILL STILL BE SUFFICIENT FOR LOCALIZED MICROBURST WINDS IN
EXCESS OF 60 MPH.  LARGE CAPE VALUES WITHIN THE -10 TO -30 LAYER
WOULD ALSO SUPPORT THE POTENTIAL FOR LARGE HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF
HALF DOLLARS.

DUE TO EXISTING WEAK WIND FIELDS...STORM MOTIONS WILL LIKELY BE
SLOW.  SLOW STORM MOTIONS ALONG WITH HIGH VALUES OF MOISTURE IN
PLACE WILL SET THE STAGE FOR LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING.  OUR SERVICE
HYDROLOGIST WILL BE INTERROGATING ANY FLASH FLOOD ISSUES THAT MAY
UNFOLD.

CRAMER

&&

.DISCUSSION...
SYNOPTIC COLD FRONT IS CURRENTLY POSITIONED ACROSS KANSAS...AND WILL
GRADUALLY SHIFT EAST OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.  THIS FEATURE MAY
NOT IMPACT EASTERN KANSAS OR SW MISSOURI UNTIL WEDNESDAY AS IT
SHIFTS THROUGH.  IN THE MEANTIME...A HIGHLY UNSTABLE AND MOIST
AIRMASS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE...WHICH MEANS SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL OCCUR IN ALMOST EVERY PERIOD THROUGH WEDNESDAY
NIGHT.

THE BEST CHANCES FOR WIDESPREAD DECENT RAINFALL WILL LIKELY OCCUR ON
WEDNESDAY DURING THE FRONTS PASSAGE THROUGH THE OZARKS.  BY
WEDNESDAY...THE FRONT WILL ASSUME MORE OF AN EAST TO WEST
ORIENTATION...AND WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO TEMPORARILY STALL OUT
SOMEWHERE ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI.  GIVEN THE UNSEASONABLY HIGH
MOISTURE CONTENT WITHIN THIS AIRMASS...LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL NEED
TO BE MONITORED CLOSELY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  GUIDANCE HAS BEEN
COMING IN COOLER WITH TEMPERATURES FOR BOTH TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY...WHICH MAKES SINCE WITH THE AMOUNT OF CLOUD COVER
EXPECTED.  WENT AHEAD AND TRENDED TEMPS IN THAT DIRECTION.

DEPENDING ON WHETHER OR NOT THE FRONT STALLS OUT OVER SOUTHERN
MISSOURI...STORMS COULD BE POSSIBLE AGAIN ON THURSDAY AFTERNOON
ALONG AND SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 60.

LOOKING DEEPER INTO THE EXTENDED PERIODS...MEDIUM RANGE MODELS ARE
SUGGESTING THAT THE OVERALL UPPER AIR PATTERN IS GOING TO TRANSITION
INTO A TYPICAL JUNE AND JULY STRUCTURE.  SUB TROPICAL HIGH REALLY
BEGINS TO BUILD OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST...WHICH INDUCES A RIDGE
OVER THE ENTIRE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST.  THIS WILL ALLOW FOR NORTHWEST
FLOW TO SET UP ACROSS THE NATIONS MIDSECTION...PUSHING THE FRONT
INTO THE DEEP SOUTH.  A DRIER AIRMASS WILL RESULT OVER THE
OZARKS...DECREASING RAIN CHANCES AND CLOUD COVER.

THERE ARE SOME INDICATIONS THAT THE SUBTROPICAL HIGH WILL BEGIN TO
MIGRATE EAST...WHICH WOULD SUGGEST PRETTY HOT TEMPERATURES BY LATE
NEXT WEEKEND OR EARLY NEXT WORK WEEK.  BUT UNTIL THEN...TEMPERATURES
CLOSE TO SEASONAL NORMS ARE EXPECTED WITH THE DRY CONDITIONS.

CRAMER

.AVIATION...

FORECAST CONCERNS FOR THE 18Z TAFS CENTER AROUND STORM POTENTIAL
THIS AFTERNOON AND AGAIN TUESDAY MORNING/AFTERNOON. WITH DEWPOINT
TEMPS LEVELING OUT IN THE MID TO UPPER 60S IN THE NEXT FEW HOURS AND
TEMPS RISING INTO THE MID TO UPPER 80S...EXPECT CUMULUS BASES TO END
UP AROUND 4000-4500 FEET. MODIFYING OUR LATEST SOUNDING WITH CURRENT
CONDITIONS SHOWS CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES HAVE ALREADY BEEN REACHED.
WITH NO STRONG FOCUSING MECHANISM OVER THE REGION...DIDNT FEEL
CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO INCLUDE TEMPO THUNDER AT THIS TIME...BUT DID
MENTION VICINITY THUNDER FROM 19Z TO 01Z.

MAIN FRONT WILL DRIFT INTO JOPLIN VICINITY TUESDAY MORNING. BUT WILL
TAKE A WAIT AND SEE ON THUNDER BEFORE ADDING TO TAF.

TANEY-OZARK-OREGON-
1255 PM CDT MON MAY 29 2006

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

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

  WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED:

 SCATTERED STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CONTAINING DAMAGING WIND
 GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH...HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF QUARTERS...AND
 LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING.

  AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:

 STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON
 AND THIS EVENING ACROSS ALL OF EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND THE
 MISSOURI OZARKS.

  DISCUSSION:

 THE LATEST FORECAST ANALYSIS SUGGESTS THAT A VERY MOIST AND UNSTABLE
 ATMOSPHERE WILL TAKE SHAPE ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND THE
 MISSOURI OZARKS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.  WIND SHEAR REMAINS VERY
 WEAK AND SUMMER LIKE...HOWEVER...STRONG INSTABILITY WILL COMPENSATE
 FOR THE LOW SHEAR AND BECOME SUFFICIENT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRONG
 TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.  LOCALIZED
 MICROBURSTS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH ALONG
 WITH HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF QUARTERS.

 ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE GENERALLY AFTER MIDNIGHT
 NORTHWEST OF AN ANDERSON...TO SPRINGFIELD...TO VERSAILLES LINE. A FEW
 STORMS MAY PRODUCE HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF NICKELS AND WIND GUSTS
 IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH.

 ALSO...GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF MOISTURE THAT THE AIRMASS OVER THE REGION
 IS CAPABLE OF HOLDING...ALONG WITH THE LOW SHEARED ENVIRONMENT...ANY
 HEAVY THUNDERSTORM THAT MOVES SLOWLY OVER A LOCALIZED AREA COULD
 PRODUCE FLASH FLOODING.

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

 SEVERAL PERIODS OF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH EARLY
 THURSDAY AS AN UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL BE IN PLACE AHEAD OF A FRONT
 WHICH WILL SLOWLY PUSH THROUGH THE REGION.  WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER
 IS NOT EXPECTED...ALTHOUGH INSTABILITY MAY BE SUFFICIENT FOR ISOLATED
 SEVERE STORMS AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

 SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING
 FOR OBSERVATIONS OF DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS AND LARGE HAIL.
