.DISCUSSION...
/838 PM CDT TUE APR 15 2008/
WINDS HAVE DIMINISHED ENOUGH TO ALLOW THE WIND ADVISORY TO EXPIRE AT
02Z.

PC

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
/317 PM CDT TUE APR 15 2008/
SO FAR HAVE STRUGGLED TO REACH WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA...BUT WILL
HOLD ON TO IT WITH GRADIENT CONTINUING TO TIGHTEN ACROSS THE AREA.
IT IS TYPICALLY VERY HARD TO REACH ADVISORY CRITERIA OVERNIGHT AND
WITH IT STRUGGLING TODAY...WILL LET IT GO AT 9PM DESPITE THE TIGHT
SURFACE GRADIENT AND LLJ OF 50 TO NEARLY 70 KTS FORECAST OVERNIGHT.
THE WINDY CONDITIONS WILL KEEP AIRMASS WELL MIXED AND THEREFORE HOLD
OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES TO A FAIRLY MILD UPPER 40/LOW 50 RANGE.

GULF IS JUST NOW OPENING UP AND DEW POINTS THUS FAR HAVE BEEN FAIRLY
SLOW TO RESPOND. BUT WITH BRISK-STRONG SOUTHERLY WINDS CONTINUING
THROUGH THE NIGHT...THINK DEW POINTS IN THE UPPER 40S TO LOW 50S
WILL NOT BE OUT OF THE QUESTION BY WEDNESDAY EVENING.

SHORT-MED RANGE MODELS ARE IN RELATIVELY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH TAKING
THE UPPER TROUGH AND DIGGING OUT A NEARLY CUT OFF LOW OVER THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS BY FRIDAY. LEE SIDE TROUGH CURRENTLY STRENGTHENING
WILL GRADUALLY TILT OVER WITH THE NORTHERN PORTION MOVING EAST...AS
A SHORTWAVE TRANSLATES THROUGH THE NORTHERN STREAM. THE SURFACE
BOUNDARY WILL GRADUALLY MOVE SOUTH INTO THE FORECAST AREA AS A COLD
FRONT BY WEDNESDAY NIGHT. EXPECT THE BOUNDARY TO SLOWLY WORK ITS WAY
SOUTH...NOT MAKING IT THROUGH THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA UNTIL
THURSDAY EVENING...FOLLOWING THE SLIGHTLY SLOWER AND FAVORED ECMWF
FORECAST PROGS.

EXPECT BOUNDARY TO BE SITUATED ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA...LINGERING
LONGEST OVER CENTRAL MISSOURI SECTIONS IN THE WEDNESDAY NIGHT
THROUGH FRIDAY TIMEFRAME. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES ARE PROGGED TO
BE GREATER THAN ONE INCH THROUGH THIS TIME FRAME. BROADSCALE LIFT
WITHIN REGION OF DIFFLUENT FLOW IN ADVANCE OF THE APPROACHING UPPER
LOW AND PERIODIC SHORTWAVE/VORT MAXES SHOOTING OFF THE UPPER LOW
MEAN PERIODS OF RAIN WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY. SOUNDINGS
SUGGEST PRIMARILY SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS. THE LIMITED
INSTABILITY PRECLUDES WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA WITH THIS SYSTEM.  WITH THE GROUND STILL NEARLY SATURATED
ACROSS SOUTHERN AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST AREA AND THIS
BEING THE CURRENTLY FAVORED SPOT FOR HEAVY RAIN...WILL ISSUE AN ESF
FOR EXCESSIVE RAINFALL LEADING TO AREAL AND RIVER FLOODING FROM
ABOUT PAOLA TO MACON SOUTHEASTWARD.

NRR

MEDIUM RANGE (FRI-TUE)...

IN THE MEDIUM RANGE PORTIONS OF THE FORECAST...CONCERNS FALL
PRIMARILY ON TEMPERATURES AS WELL AS PRECIPITATION CHANCES.  FOR
FRIDAY...STILL SOME DISAGREEMENT ON HOW FAST DEVELOPING UPR-LOW WILL
EXIT THE AREA.  LATEST GFS FALLS MORE IN LINE WITH 00Z ECMWF IN
SLOWING EASTWARD PROGRESSION OF UPR LOW. THIS APPEARS TO BE A GOOD
TREND AND AS A RESULT...GOOD DEAL OF LOW-LVL MOISTURE SHOULD WRAP
AROUND DEPARTING SYSTEM.  HAVE LOWERED HIGH TEMPERATURES FOR FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY DESPITE STRENGTHENING APRIL SUN...WITH PRECIPITATION
SLOWLY EXITING THE REGION FRIDAY EVE.

A VERY HIGH LVL OF UNCERTAINTY ENTERS THE FORECAST FOR SUNDAY
THROUGH TUESDAY...AS MODELS ARE HAVING AN EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TIME
RESOLVING LONG-WAVE FEATURES AND ONE SOLUTION SHOULDNT BE TAKEN AT
FACE VALUE ATTM.  AS NEXT UPR TROUGH ENTERS THE PAC NW ON
SUN...THERMAL RIDGE WILL RAPIDLY PUSH EASTWARD BY SUN EVE...WITH
HIGH CONFIDENCE OF ABOVE TO MUCH ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES AND WINDY
CONDITIONS RETURNING TO THE REGION.  HAVE INCREASED MAX TEMPS
THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD AND HAVE SOME CONCERNS I MAY NOT BE WARM
ENOUGH.

AS FAR AS PRECIP IS CONCERNED...DUE TO THE WIDE DISPLAY OF SOLUTIONS
PRESENTED BY THE OPERATIONAL MODELS...WILL STICK CLOSER TO
NAEFS/GEFS MEANS THROUGHOUT.  HAVE INTRODUCED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR
SUN NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY AS INSTABILITY INCREASES AHEAD OF LONG
WAVE TROUGH.  MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE A RATHER STOUT LOW-LVL CAP
THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD AND THIS IS MOST EVIDENT IN THE INCONSISTENT
QPF FIELDS OF THE OPER GFS.  NEVERTHELESS...CANNOT DISCOUNT ELEVATED
NOCTURNAL CONVECTION SUN NIGHT AS LEAD IMPULSE TRANSVERSES THROUGH
THE SWLY MID LVL FLOW.

DUX

&&

.AVIATION...
WILL HAVE LLWS IN THE TAFS FOR OVERNIGHT. SURFACE WINDS WILL BE
GUSTY BUT WITH WINDS JUST ALOFT AS HIGH AS 65 OR 70KTS...FELT IT IS
WORTH PUTTING IN.  WINDY CONDITIONS WILL GRADUALLY IMPROVE DURING
THE DAY AS THE SURFACE FRONT MOVES INTO NORTHWEST MISSOURI. WILL NOT
INTRODUCE THUNDERSTORMS AS YET WITH THIS FRONT NEAR THE KSTJ AREA BY
EVENING...JUST INDICATE THE POSSIBILITY WITH A CB GROUP.  WANT TO
WAIT AND SEE HOW STRONG THE MOISTURE RETURN IS INTO NORTHWEST
MISSOURI AND IF THE CAP CAN BE OVERCOME.  NEW NAM WOULD SUGGEST
SOMETHING COULD BE DEVELOPING IN THE KSTJ AREA BY 03Z.
