AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
506 PM CST WED FEB 28 2007

.DISCUSSION...

MAIN FOCUS FOR THIS FORECAST IS ON THE SEVERE AND WINTER WEATHER
THREAT FOR TONIGHT AND INTO TOMORROW.

A LARGE TROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE DESERT SOUTHWEST TODAY WILL ROTATE
INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS OVERNIGHT. AS IT SWINGS INTO THE PLAINS IT
WILL BECOME INCREASING MORE NEGATIVELY TILLED. OF NOTE ON THE
AFTERNOON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY ARE SEVERAL FEATURES. FIRST IS THE
PLUME OF MOISTURE THAT IS NOTED FROM THE SOUTHEAST PACIFIC THROUGH
OLD MEXICO INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. ALSO SEEN IS A DRY SLOT ON THE
NORTH SIDE OF THE PLUME ON THE NOSE OF A 100+ KTS JET THAT IS RACING
IN UNDER THE TROUGH. LOOKING A LITTLE CLOSER TO THE GROUND...WE CAN
SEE THE SURFACE LOW TAKING SHAPE IN THE PANHANDLES OF TEXAS AND
OKLAHOMA WITH BREEZY SOUTHERLY WINDS AHEAD OF IT. THE SOUTHERN WIND
IS QUICKLY ADVECTING WARM AIR NORTH WITH 70+ DEGREE TEMPERATURES
REACHING AS FAR NORTH AS LEES SUMMIT. THE MOISTURE MOVING NORTH IS
LAGGING BEHIND LEADING EDGE OF THE WARM AIR WITH 50 DEGREE DEW
POINTS HAVING MADE IT TO SPRINGFIELD. THE EFFECTIVE WARM FRONT LOOKS
TO HAVE MADE IT TO THE MISSOURI RIVER AT THIS TIME.

18Z SOUNDING FROM SPRINGFIELD SHOW A STRONG CAP IN PLACE ACROSS
SOUTHERN MISSOURI EXTENDING NORTH. THE DRY SLOT EVIDENT ON WATER
VAPOR IMAGERY AND THE STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION ALOFT WILL KEEP US
CAPPED THROUGH MUCH OF THE EVENING HOURS. ADDITIONALLY...SURFACE
FEATURES ARE BEGINNING TO REALIGN AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH...MEANING THAT IT WILL BE MANY HOURS BEFORE THE UPPER
AIR AND SURFACE FEATURES SYNC UP TO THE POINT WHERE STORMS CAN GET
GOING AND ORGANIZE. THE IMPLICATION IS THAT THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY
WILL NOT MOVE INTO OUR WARNING AREA BEFORE 9 PM. HOWEVER...ANY
ACTIVITY THAT DOES GET GOING AFTER 9 PM WILL HAVE 0-6KM SHEAR VALUES
OF 50 KTS OR MORE AND STEEPENING MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES OF 7 C/KM TO
WORK WITH. DESPITE THE NOCTURNAL HOURS OVER WHICH THIS WILL BE
OCCURRING MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE THAT MOISTURE ADVECTION AT THE
SURFACE WILL INDUCE UP TO 800 J/KG OF INSTABILITY. WITH THE LEFT
EXIT REGION OF A 100+ KTS JET MOVING ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI AROUND
MIDNIGHT...THOUGHTS ARE ANY CAP THAT IS LEFT WILL QUICKLY ERODE.

THE COMBINATION OF SHEAR...INSTABILITY...AND MOISTURE WILL MAKE
SEVERE WEATHER A STRONG POSSIBILITY AROUND AND AFTER MIDNIGHT ACROSS
AREAS ALONG AND SOUTH OF A LINE FROM KANSAS CITY TO MACON.
HOWEVER...THE BEST POTENTIAL WILL BE FOR SEVERE WILL RANGE ALONG A
LINE FROM BUTLER NORTHEAST THROUGH CLINTON AND WARRENSBURG...
SEDALIA...AND FAYETTE. SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS AND SQUALL LINES WILL
BE THE PRIMARY MODES FOR CONVECTION TONIGHT. ANY STORMS FROM KANSAS
CITY TO MACON WILL HAVE A STRONG POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN...LARGE
HAIL...AND DAMAGING WINDS. AREAS FROM BUTLER TO FAYETTE WILL WILL
HAVE THE SAME THREATS...BUT WILL ALSO HAVE TO CONTEND WITH AN
ENHANCED POTENTIAL FOR TORNADOES.

THE MOISTURE STREAMING NORTH OVERNIGHT AND OVERRUNNING THE FRONT
COULD PRODUCE WIDESPREAD AREAS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN...
ESPECIALLY ALONG AND NORTH OF THE MISSOURI RIVER. CENTRAL AND NORTH
CENTRAL MISSOURI HAVE ALREADY HAD ISSUES WITH FLOODING DUE TO THIS
PAST WEEKENDS RAIN. THEREFORE WE HAVE GONE WITH A FLOOD WATCH FOR
MIDNIGHT TO NOON THURSDAY FOR THE EASTERN 2/3 OF THE FORECAST AREA.

AS THE LOW DEEPENS OVERNIGHT AND LIFTS INTO IOWA EARLY THURSDAY
MORNING COLD AIR WILL WRAP AROUND INTO OUR CWA. THIS WILL BRING
FALLING TEMPERATURES TO THE AREA FOR TOMORROW IN ADDITION TO SNOW.
CURRENTLY IT LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE TOWARDS DAYBREAK BEFORE ENOUGH
COLD AIR MOVES FAR ENOUGH SOUTH TO CONVERT ANY ONGOING PRECIPITATION
IN THE NORTHWEST CORNER INTO SNOW. HOWEVER...AS THE AIR COLUMN
COOLS BETWEEN 3 AM AND 9 AM THE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL INCREASE
SIGNIFICANTLY BRINGING 20 TO 30 MPH WINDS TO MUCH OF EASTERN KANSAS
AND MISSOURI TOMORROW. ACCUMULATIONS IN EXTREME NORTHEAST KANSAS AND
NORTHWEST MISSOURI ARE EXPECTED TO RUN FROM 2 TO 5 INCHES...WITH THE
HIGHER AMOUNTS MORE LIKELY THE FARTHER NORTH YOU MOVE INTO NEBRASKA
AND IOWA. HAVE LIMITED THE ACCUMULATIONS A LITTLE DUE TO THE SPEED
WITH WHICH THE LOW IS PROGGED TO LIFT NORTHEAST. STILL 2 TO 5 INCHES
WITH 20 TO 30 MPH WINDS LOOKS SUFFICIENT FOR A SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW
ADVISORY IN EXTREME NORTHEAST KANSAS AND NORTHWEST MISSOURI FROM 3
AM TO NOON THURSDAY. THERE WILL LIKELY BE SOME SNOW STILL FALLING
ACROSS FAR NORTHERN AND NORTHEASTERN MISSOURI THROUGH LATE TOMORROW
AFTERNOON...BUT ACCUMULATIONS LOOK LOW ENOUGH AT THIS TIME TO
WARRANT CUTTING OFF THE ADVISORY AT NOON AND NOT EXTENDING IT ANY
FARTHER EAST.

CUTTER

THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY

A STACKED LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL SLOWLY DRIFT ACROSS THE GREAT
LAKES REGION THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY.  SEVERAL LOBES OF
UPPER LEVEL ENERGY WILL ROTATE AROUND THIS SYSTEM...RESULTING IN
PERIODIC CHANCES OF LIGHT SNOW OR FLURRIES MAINLY ACROSS THE
NORTHERN HALF OF MISSOURI.  BY SUNDAY...THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL
LOSE ITS INFLUENCE ON THE AREA WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FROM
THE WEST.  THIS EXPANSIVE SURFACE HIGH WILL EXTEND ALL THE WAY INTO
THE GULF...EFFECTIVELY SCOURING OUT LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ACROSS THE
REGION.  EARLY WEEK UPPER PATTERN WILL GENERALLY BE ZONAL WITH A FEW
WEAK RIPPLES HINTED BY THE GFS.  NOT EXPECTING ANY OF THIS ENERGY TO
PRODUCE PRECIPITATION...DUE TO THE AFOREMENTIONED LACK OF
MOISTURE THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK.  AS FOR
TEMPERATURES...REINFORCING SHOTS OF COLD AIR WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH
EACH PIECE OF ENERGY ROTATING AROUND THE UPPER LOW TO THE
NORTHEAST.  THE COLDEST PERIOD LOOKS TO BE SATURDAY AND SATURDAY
NIGHT. HIGHS WILL LIKELY STAY IN THE 30S ACROSS ALL BUT FAR
SOUTHWEST PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA...AND LOWS WILL DIP INTO THE
TEENS NORTH TO LOWER 20S SOUTH. BY THE BEGINNING OF THE WORK
WEEK...TEMPERATURES WILL MODERATE AS SOUTHERLY FLOW RETURNS.

.PREV DISCUSSION...

/638 AM CST WED FEB 28 2007/
GETTING REPORTS OF A SNOW AND SLEET MIX AT THE LEADING EDGE OF THE
CONVECTION MOVING THROUGH NORTH CENTRAL MISSOURI. UPDATED FORECASTS
TO REFLECT THIS PRECIPITATION. THIS BAND OF CONVECTION BEING DRIVEN
BY WARM AIR ADVECTION...AND SHOULD CONTINUE TO PUSH NORTHEAST OUT OF
THE FORECAST AREA THIS MORNING.

PC

/342 AM CST WED FEB 28 2007/
ANOTHER SPRING TO WINTER STORM SYSTEM ON TAP FOR THE FORECAST AREA
TONIGHT AND THURSDAY. DEEPENING SHORT WAVE BECOMES MORE NEGATIVELY
TILTED AS IT SWINGS INTO KANSAS TONIGHT. SURFACE WARM FRONT IS
EXPECTED TO SET UP ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON AS
SURFACE LOW DEVELOPS IN OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE. LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
CURRENTLY IN TEXAS WILL BE RAPIDLY DRAWN NORTHWARD ARRIVING INTO THE
FORECAST AREA BY LATE AFTERNOON. BEFORE THAT OCCURS...ISENTROPIC
LIFT THIS MORNING SHOWING UP ON THE 300K SURFACE ALREADY LEADING TO
SOME SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING IN EXTREME
SOUTHEAST PORTIONS OF FORECAST AREA. WILL HAVE SOME CHANCE POPS IN
FOR THIS AREA OF LIFT THIS MORNING...WITH MAIN FOCUS BEING IN
CENTRAL MISSOURI. EXPECT THIS ACTIVITY TO GET SHUNTED OFF TO THE
NORTHEAST AS STRENGTHENING MID LEVEL WINDS PULL IN DRY AIR IN THE
700 TO 500 MB LEVELS. WARM AIR ADVECTION WITH THESE WINDS SHOULD CAP
ANY ACTIVITY THIS AFTERNOON...AND WILL ONLY LEAVE SOME CHANCE POPS
IN MY NORTHEAST WHERE CONVECTION MIGHT STILL BE ONGOING AT MIDDAY.

FOR TONIGHT...MODELS SHOW UPPER TROUGH SWINGING INTO EASTERN KANSAS
BY 12Z THURSDAY...THEN SWINGING NORTHEAST INTO IOWA BY MIDDAY ON
THURSDAY. STRONG VORT MAX ASSOCIATED WITH THIS WAVE IS EXPECTED TO
BE MOVING TO NEAR THE KANSAS MISSOURI BORDER BY 12Z...AND MOVE EAST
OF THE AREA BY 18Z...WHICH WOULD COINCIDE WITH ENDING THREAT OF
THUNDERSTORMS  LEFT EXIT REGION OF STRONG SOUTHERN STREAM UPPER JET
WILL BE ACROSS MISSOURI DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS...WITH THE LOW
LEVEL JET INCREASING TO OVER 50 KTS. THIS SHOULD SET THE STAGE FOR
STRONG...POSSIBLY SEVERE STORMS OVERNIGHT (SEE SPC DAY 1 DISCUSSION
FOR DETAILS)...WITH ALSO THE POTENTIAL OF HEAVY
RAINFALL...ESPECIALLY IN NORTHERN MISSOURI...NORTH OF SURFACE FRONT.
THIS IS AN AREA THAT HAS SEEN RECENT FLOODING ON SOME OF THE RIVERS.
MODEL QPF NOT THAT IMPRESSIVE...POSSIBLY DUE TO THE RAPID MOVEMENT
OF THE STORMS. BUT WITH PWAT IN EXCESS OF AN INCH IN PARTS OF THE
FORECAST AREA...AND HEADWATER GUIDANCE ON SOME OF THE AREA RIVERS
BELOW AN INCH...A WATCH MAY BE WARRANTED FOR LATE TONIGHT AND INTO
THE DAY ON THURSDAY.  WILL LET DAY SHIFT TAKE ONE MORE LOOK AT
MORNING HEADWATER GUIDANCE AND GET A BETTER HANDLE ON EXACTLY WHERE
SURFACE FRONT WILL BE SETTING UP...BEFORE WE MAKE A FINAL DECISION
ON A WATCH.

THAT IS THE SPRINGTIME PART OF THE STORM.  NEXT CONCERN IS THE
WINTERTIME PART. WITH SURFACE LOW EXPECTED TO BE MOVING INTO
NORTHWEST MISSOURI BY 09Z...THEN TRACKING INTO SOUTH CENTRAL IOWA BY
18Z ON THURSDAY...STRONG WINDS AND SNOW ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER
NORTHWEST MISSOURI AND NORTHEAST KANSAS LATE TONIGHT AND DURING THE
DAY ON THURSDAY. GFS MORE BULLISH ON SNOWFALL AMOUNTS...AND WOULD
SUGGEST SOME AREAS MAY PICK UP IN EXCESS OF 6 INCHES IN THE
NORTHWEST CORNER OF MISSOURI. NAM NOT AS WET...BUT BOTH MODELS SHOW
WINDS GUSTING IN EXCESS OF 30 MPH DURING THE DAY ON THURSDAY. THUS
EVEN IF THE 6 INCH AMOUNTS ARE NOT REACHED...BLOWING SNOW WILL BE A
REAL CONCERN...SO WILL GO WITH A WINTER STORM WATCH AT THIS
POINT...FOR NORTHWEST MISSOURI AND EXTREME NORTHEAST KANSAS...WHERE
SNOWFALL TOTALS OF 3 TO 5 INCHES ARE MOST LIKELY TO OCCUR...WITH
POTENTIAL FOR DRIFTS IN EXCESS OF A FOOT.
