AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
535 AM CST TUE NOV 13 2007

.DISCUSSION...

CURRENTLY...A WEAK COLD FRONT EXTENDS FROM NEAR VIENNA TO LICKING TO
GAINESVILLE. OVERNIGHT...FOG HAS FORMED ALONG THIS FRONT WITH
VISIBILITIES REDUCED TO LESS THAN A QUARTER OF A MILE IN AREAS
GENERALLY ALONG THE PLATEAU. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS DRIER MID
LEVEL AIR NOW IN CENTRAL KANSAS QUICKLY MOVING TOWARDS THE
MISSOURI OZARKS. IN RESPONSE TO THE APPROACH OF THIS DRIER
AIR...CEILINGS HAVE STARTED TO RISE AND VISIBILITIES ARE
IMPROVING. THIS TREND IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE AND AS A RESULT THE
DENSE FOG ADVISORY WILL LIKELY BE CANCELLED WITH THE ISSUANCE OF THE
MORNING FORECAST PACKAGE.

THE NEXT CHALLENGE IS PRECIPITATION CHANCES AND TEMPERATURES FOR
TODAY. RADAR HAS SHOWN BOTH PRE FRONTAL AND POST FRONTAL SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE AREA. WITH THE WEAK FRONT WASHING OUT
TODAY...CHANCES FOR RAIN WILL RESIDE TO THE EAST OF HIGHWAY 65. MUCH
LIKE YESTERDAY...HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL DEPEND GREATLY ON CLOUD
COVER. TEMPERATURES ONCE AGAIN WILL BE ABOVE NORMAL WITH HIGHS
RANGING FROM THE MID 60S FOR AREAS THAT EXPERIENCE MORE CLOUD COVER
AND LOWER 70S FOR AREAS WITH MORE SUNSHINE.

A MUCH STRONGER COLD FRONT WILL BE MOVING THROUGH SOUTHEAST KANSAS
AND THE MISSOURI OZARKS ON WEDNESDAY. WITH INCREASING
CLOUDS...STRONG NORTHERLY WINDS AND COLD AIR ADVECTION...HIGH
TEMPERATURES WILL MAINLY RESIDE IN THE LOW TO MID 60S ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA. AHEAD OF THE FRONT...AFTERNOON HIGH TEMPERATURES IN
SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI WILL BE NEAR 70 DEGREES. THIS FRONT WILL
MOVE THROUGH MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA DRY WITH ONLY A SLIGHT
CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS ALONG THE FRONT IN SOUTH CENTRAL
MISSOURI. SKIES WILL BE CLEARING OVERNIGHT WEDNESDAY WITH LOWS
NEAR FREEZING FOR MOST AREAS.

SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE PLAINS BEHIND THE FRONT ON
THURSDAY. NORTHERLY WINDS WILL WEAKEN THROUGHOUT THE DAY AS THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE MUCH COOLER
THAN THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS WITH READINGS IN THE 50S. WITH CLEAR
SKIES...LIGHT WINDS AND HIGH PRESSURE OVERHEAD...RADIATIONAL
COOLING WILL KICK IN OVERNIGHT WITH LOWS DROPPING BELOW FREEZING.

A WARMING TREND BEGINS OVER THE WEEKEND. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BE MOVING EASTWARD WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS RETURNING TO THE
AREA. THE GFS AND ECMWF MODEL SOLUTIONS EJECT THE UPPER LEVEL LOW
CURRENTLY NEAR BAJA CALIFORNIA AS AN OPEN TROUGH INTO THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS. IF THIS HAPPENS...GULF MOISTURE IS LIKELY TO SURGE
NORTHWARD INTO THE OZARKS AND SOUTHEAST KANSAS PROVIDING CHANCES
FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS. FURTHER MODEL RUNS WILL HELP SOLIDIFY THE
CHANCES FOR RAIN IN THE EXTENDED FORECAST.

.AVIATION...

WIDESPREAD MVFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST MUCH OF TODAY AS THE AIRMASS
NEAR THE SURFACE REMAINS VERY MOIST. IFR CEILINGS LESS THAN 500 FEET
WILL AFFECT THE SPRINGFIELD TERMINAL THIS MORNING. THE STRATUS WILL
GRADUALLY LIFT AND VISIBILITY SLOWLY IMPROVE DURING THE DAY. SOME
BREAKS IN THE STRATUS WILL DEVELOP BY LATE IN THE DAY. STRATUS AND
LIGHT FOG MAY AGAIN DEVELOP LATE TONIGHT AS THE NEXT FRONT
APPROACHES THE AREA.
