.DISCUSSION...
/326 PM CDT MON JUL 21 2008/
HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS HAVE PREVAILED AGAIN TODAY AND THIS HAS
RESULTED IN VERY UNSTABLE CONDITIONS ACROSS THE CWA. LATEST SPC
MESOANALYSIS SHOWS SBCAPES OF 4000-5000 J/KG FROM ROUGHLY STL NWWD
THROUGH NORTH CENTRAL AND NORTHWEST MO. VERY LITTLE CIN IS ALSO
EVIDENT. RIGHT NOW WE ARE JUST PLAYING THE WAITING GAME FOR
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT. QSTNRY BNDRY DRAPPED ACROSS SOUTHERN
NEBRASKA INVOF OF THE MO/IA BORDER INTO NCENTRAL IL WILL BE THE
FOCUSING MECH AND EXPECT CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT FROM IRK NWWD INTO
NW MO DURING THE NEXT 2-3HRS AS THE VERTICAL MOTION FIELD FROM THE SHRTWV
TROF DIGGING THRU THE UPPER MS VLY SPREADS INTO THAT REGION. WATER
VAPOR AND SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATES THE LEADING EDGE OF THE UVV
FIELD IS NEARING SW IA ATTM. GIVEN THE EXTREME CAPE AND EFFECTIVE BULK
LAYER SHEAR OF 30-40 KTS AND AM EXPECTING THE ACTIVITY TO QUICKLY
BECOME SEVERE AND GROW UPSCALE INTO A SEVERE FORWARD PROPAGATING
MCS. THIS MCS IS THEN EXPECTED TO TRACK ESEWD ACROSS NRN MO INTO
SW IL...AN AREA WHICH HAS BEEN HIGHLIGHTED VERY WELL ON THE LATEST
SWODY1 MOD RISK AREA. IF THIS SYSTEM IS ANYTHING LIKE THE ONE LAST
NIGHT THAT IMPACTED THE DVN AND ILX CWA...THEN DAMAGING WINDS IN
EXCESS OF 70-80 MPH ARE QUITE POSSIBLE. THE UNCERTAINTY TONIGHT
RESIDES SOUTH OF THE AFOREMENTIONED CORRIDOR AND THE LONGEVITY
OF ALL THE ACTIVITY. LOW LEVEL FORCING AND THE SLOW SOUTHWARD
MOVING FRONTAL BNDRY SUGGESTS A SERIES OF MCSS ARE NOT OUT OF THE
REALM...WHILE THESE SYSTEMS ALSO TEND TO GET FURTHER SOUTH THAN WE
ORIGINALLY THINK DUE TO COLD POOL PROCESSES AND ADDITIONAL
DEVELOPMENT. THEREFORE HAVE MADE FEW CHANGES TO THE PREVIOUS FCST
WITH FAIRLY HIGH POPS ACROSS THE NORTH HALF OF THE CWA. ALSO WE
COULD SEE AN AIRMASS PULSE STORM EARLY THIS EVENING ACROSS THE ERN
OZARKS WHERE A DECENT CU FIELD EXISTS AND IT IS VERY UNSTABLE.

TONIGHTS ACTIVITY TO A LARGE DEGREE WILL DICTATE WHAT HAPPENS ON
TUESDAY. THE SYNOPIC SCALE FRONT AND/OR OUTFLOWS WILL BE THE FOCUS
FOR RENEWED DEVELOPMENT OUTSIDE OF ONGOING ACTIVITY AT DAYBREAK.
BEST FEELING GIVEN A EXPECTED FRONTAL POSITION INVOF OF I-70 IS
THAT THE GREATEST PROB OF PCPN WILL THEN RESIDE ACROSS THE SRN
HALF OF THE CWA. MORE CLOUDS/PCPN IN ADDITION TO THE SLOWLY MOVING
FRONT WILL MAKE FOR A COOLER DAY AND THE END OF THE SHORT HEAT
WAVE.

THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE MOVING SOUTHWARD ON TUESDAY
NIGHT WITH COOLER AIR INFILTRATING THE AREA AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS INTO THE MID MS VLY. THIS SHOULD AT LEAST TEMPORARILY
SHUNT THE GREATEST PCPN CHANCES SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST OF THE CWA.
BEGINNING LATE WED NIGHT AND INTO THURS AND FRI THERE ARE THEN
QUESTIONS TO THE LOCATION OF SUBSEQUENT ROUNDS OF PCPN. NW FLOW
SHORTWV TROFS WILL INTERACT WITH A SLOWLY LIFTING BNDRY AND RESULT
IN PROBABLY SEVERAL MCS...BUT TRACKS AND LOCATIONS AMONG THE MODEL
OUTPUT SHOW ALOT OF VARIABILITY.
