AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
632 PM CDT TUE JUN 3 2008

.DISCUSSION...
/420 PM CDT TUE JUN 3 2008/
THE MAIN CONCERNS OVER THE NEXT 12 HOURS REVOLVE AROUND FLASH
FLOOD AND SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL. NEARLY SATURATED GROUND FROM
ALL OF THE RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL THAT HAS OCCURRED OVER A WIDE
SWATH OF THE FA...THE VERY RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL THAT OCCURRED
THIS MORNING OVER THE NRN AND NERN FA...AND MANY AREA RIVERS ARE
ALREADY NEAR BANKFULL OR IN FLOOD HAVE RAISED CONCERN LEVELS FOR
FLASH FLOODING. ADD TO THAT THE POTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL HEAVY
RAIN PRODUCING STORMS FROM TRAINING ALONG THE W-E ORIENTED LO
LEVEL BOUNDARY...AND RESULTING FFG VALUES OVER 6 HOURS ARE LESS
THAN 2 INCHES OVER A LARGE AREA OF THE FA. VERY RICH MOISTURE THRU
THE COLUMN WILL CONTRIBUTE TO HI EFFICIENCY RAIN SO HAVE ISSUED A
FFA FOR TONIGHT TO COVER THESE CONCERNS.

SEVERE WEATHER ALSO REMAINS A THREAT TONIGHT. BOUNDARY HAS BEEN LAID
OUT OVER THE NRN AND NERN FA FROM TWO MCS THAT WENT THRU THE AREA
THIS MORNING. THIS WILL BE ONE AREA OF FOCUS. BUT ANOTHER AREA HAS
TAKEN SHAPE IN ADVANCE OF A SHORTWAVE MOVING EWD...WITH DEVELOPMENT
OF CU FIELD OVER ERN KS AND WRN AND NRN MO. BETWEEN THESE TWO AREAS
FOR TSRA FOCUS...AND CONTINUED DE-STABILIZATION AS LI/S HAVE DROPPED
TO -10 OVER MUCH OF THE AREA...LOOK FOR NEW TSRA INITATION TO OCCUR
BY 22/23Z. DEGREE OF INSTABILITY IN THE AMS...LOOKING AT MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES AND SHEAR...WILL ENABLE STORMS TO RAPIDLY INTENSIFY TO
SEVERE LEVELS. SHEAR IS FAVORABLE FOR TORNADIC STORMS EARLY ON.

WITH MID LEVEL FLOW BACKING FROM ZONAL TO SWLY BY THURSDAY...LOOK
FOR FRONTAL BOUNDARIES THAT COULD SERVE AS A FOCUS TO LARGELY SHIFT
THE ACTION NWD...LEAVING A SMALL QUIET PERIOD FOR OUR FA. THIS WILL
BE BROKEN WHEN A STRONG SHORTWAVE TAKES A SWIPE AT OUR FA LATE
THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY.

FOR THE EXTENDED PERIOD (FRIDAY NIGHT - TUESDAY)...MODELS ARE IN
REASONABLE AGREEMENT ON A PERISTENT SWLY MID LEVEL FLOW PATTERN THAT
WILL TAKE HOLD OVER THE MID MS VALLEY...WITH A STUBBORN H500 HI OVER
THE SERN CONUS AND A SERIES OF SHORTWAVES THAT WILL SEEK TO CUT INTO
THIS HI DURING THIS TIME. AT THE SURFACE...THIS WILL MAKE IT TOUGH
FOR ANY FRONTS TO MOVE INTO OUR AREA OR PERSIST FOR VERY LONG. THE
BEST CHANCE FOR A FRONTAL INTRUSION INTO OUR AREA WILL BE EARLY IN
THE PERIOD...FRIDAY NIGHT AND EARLY SATURDAY...UNTIL MID LEVEL FLOW
BACKS MORE AND FORCES ANY FRONTS TO OUR N. HAVE THE BEST PCPN
CHANCES DURING FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY...AND LIMIT ANY OTHER PCPN
CHANCES TO SLIGHT CHANCE UNTIL WE GET A BETTER HANDLE ON POSSIBLE
OUTFLOW EFFECTS FROM ANY MCS THAT MOVE THRU. SLY SFC WINDS WILL BE
DOMINANT DURING THIS PERIOD. THIS WILL MAINTAIN OUR ABOVE NORMAL
TEMPERATURES.

.AVIATION...
/628 PM CDT TUE JUN 3 2008/
FOR THE 00Z TAFS...INITIAL FOCUS FOR TSRA DEVELOPMENT WILL BE CU
FIELD OVER WRN MO AHEAD OF MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE...AND OLD OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY FROM THIS MORNING/S MCS THAT MOVED THRU OVER THE NRN/NERN
FA. HAVE PLACED THE INITIAL VCTS AND TEMPO TSRA MENTION OVER
KUIN/KCOU TERMINALS IN LIGHT OF THIS. HAVE DELAYED A LITTLE BIT
FOR KSTL/KSUS UNTIL CONVECTION HAS A CHANCE TO DEVELOP MORE AND
CONGEAL...AND LOOK FOR MAIN EPISODE THERE TO OCCUR TOWARD
MIDNIGHT. LOOK FOR MUCH OF THE CONVECTION TO BEGIN TO EXIT OR WIND
DOWN SOME TIME LATE TONIGHT. OTHERWISE...LOOK FOR SSW SFC WINDS TO
CONTINUE WITH VFR CONDITIONS OUTSIDE OF TSRA. LIMITED TSRA MENTION
ON WEDNESDAY TO JUST THE KUIN TERMINAL AND A PROB30 DURING THE
AFTERNOON AT THAT.
