What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Springfield, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 26, 1:15 AM CDT, 2 hours 5 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Aug 26, 1:15 AM CDT, 2 hours 5 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 115 AM CDT SAT AUG 26 2006 .DISCUSSION... A LARGE MCS COMPLEX WAS BEGINNING TO DEVELOP ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS/NORTHWEST MISSOURI EARLY THIS MORNING WITH REGIONAL RADAR INDICATING A MESOSCALE CIRCULATION JUST NORTH OF KANSAS CITY AS OF 1 AM. LOW LEVEL JET CONTINUES TO IGNITE CONVECTION ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA...AND INTO SOUTH CENTRAL/SOUTHEAST KANSAS. CURRENT RADAR TRENDS ALONG WITH LATEST RUC...CONTINUES TO SHOW MID LEVEL DRY LAYER/STABLE LAYER ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI REMAINING NEARLY STATIONARY WHICH WOULD LEAD TO THE BULK OF THE CONVECTION NORTH OF I-44 DURING THE NEXT 6/12 HOURS. ALTHOUGH WILL SEE HOW RADAR TRENDS LOOK IN THE NEXT TWO HOURS...BUT CURRENT THINKING IS TO HAVE CHANCE POPS SOUTH OF I-44 WITH LIKELY/CATEGORICAL POPS NORTH OF I-44. AFTER THIS MORNING MY ATTENTION TURNS TO THE STRONG SYNOPTIC SCALE SYSTEM ACROSS THE NORTHERN ROCKIES. MODELS HAVE BEEN TRENDING TOWARD A VERY STRONG MID/UPPER LOW BECOMING CUT OFF FROM THE MEAN FLOW BY MONDAY ACROSS THE MID WEST. BOTH THE WRF/GFS ARE SHOWING A VERY SYNOPTIC TYPE REGIME DEVELOPING ACROSS THE NORTHERN/CENTRAL PLAINS BY LATE IN THE WEEKEND/EARLY NEXT WEEK WHICH IS TYPICAL FOR AN EARLY FALL STORM SYSTEM. EVEN SOME OF THE MOISTURE FIELDS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SYSTEM IS SHOWING A VERY DYNAMIC WARM/COLD CONVEYER BELT ACROSS NEBRASKA/SOUTHERN SOUTH DAKOTA AND WESTERN IOWA BY MONDAY. DUE TO THE STRENGTH OF THIS SYSTEM...THE CURRENT FRONTAL BOUNDARY JUST NORTH OF OUR FORECAST AREA WILL LIKELY STALL OR EVEN RETREAT NORTHWARD AS THIS SYSTEM BEGINS TO MOVE OUT OF THE ROCKIES. THEREFORE...IT SEEMS THAT THE BULK OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL LIKELY HAPPEN AS THE MAIN UPPER TROUGH MOVES THROUGH MONDAY/MONDAY NIGHT. CURRENT FORECAST WITH LIKELY PRECIPITATION CHANCES ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI WITH LOW PROBABILITIES ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHERN MISSOURI SEEMS REASONABLE AT THIS TIME THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURES WILL ONCE AGAIN PLAY HAVOC DUE TO RAINFALL AND CLOUD COVER. HIGHS IN THE LOW TO MID 80S ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI...WITH UPPER 80S TO NEAR 90 ALSO SEEMS REASONABLE DUE TO CURRENT THICKNESS VALUES. DID NOT WANT TO DEVIATE TOO MUCH AFTER MONDAY/TUESDAY TIME PERIOD...BUT DUE TO THIS SYSTEM EXPECTING TO DEVELOP...HAVE ADJUSTED TEMPERATURES SLIGHTLY FOR WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY. NO OTHER CHANGES EXPECTED. JLT && .AVIATION... FOR THE 0600 UTC TAFS...FIRST LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS MOVED INTO SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND FELL APART IN THE STABLE AIR. THIS BAND OF SHOWERS WILL MISS BOTH AIRFIELDS...BUT THERE IS MORE TO COME LATER THIS MORNING. LOOKS LIKE NEXT COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS IN KANSAS SHOULD REACH JOPLIN BY 12Z AND SPRINGFIELD BY 14Z. JUST WENT VCTS IN TAFS AT THIS TIME AS UNCERTAINTY EXISTS AS TO WHETHER THIS LINE WILL MEET THE SAME FATE AS THIS FIRST ONE DID. GCC && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MO...NONE. KS...NONE.
