AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
554 AM CDT WED MAY 7 2008

...UPDATE TO AVIATION...

.DISCUSSION...

A COMPLEX WEATHER SCENARIO CONTINUES TO EVOLVE EARLY WEDNESDAY.
THE REMNANTS OF A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX THAT DEVELOPED OVER KANSAS WAS
SPREADING INTO PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN MISSOURI EARLY
THIS MORNING. REGIONAL RADAR AND SATELLITE SHOW OTHER LARGE
CONVECTIVE CLUSTERS ACROSS THE PLAINS THAT HAD DEVELOPED IN
RESPONSE TO A BROAD LOW LEVEL JET AHEAD OF AN UPPER LOW TRACKING
OUT OF THE DESERT SOUTHWEST.

THIS POTENT SYSTEM WILL MIGRATE NORTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE SOUTHERN
PLAINS TODAY. INCREASING UPPER DIFFLUENCE WILL OVERSPREAD THE
REGION DURING THE DAY AND INTERACT WITH A STRENGTHENING LOW LEVEL
JET TO PROVIDE AMPLE LIFT FOR WIDESPREAD CONVECTION. EXPECT TO SEE
CLUSTERS OF CONVECTION DEVELOP FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE
MISSOURI VALLEY THROUGH THE DAY...AND INITIALLY BECOME FOCUSED ALONG
A DEVELOPING FRONTAL ZONE AS SEEN IN THE PROGGED 925-850 MB WIND
FIELDS. THE AXIS OF MAXIMIZED MASS CONVERGENCE WILL EXTEND FROM
THE APPROACHING UPPER LOW INTO SOUTHEAST AND CENTRAL MISSOURI BY
THIS AFTERNOON. MODEL SOUNDINGS SUGGEST VERY EFFICIENT RAINFALL
PRODUCTION WITH NEARLY SATURATED AIRMASS THROUGH 400 MB AND
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AROUND 1.5 INCHES. THE RISK OF FLASH
FLOODING WILL INCREASE DURING THE DAY PARTICULARLY FROM SOUTHEAST
KANSAS INTO THE LAKE OF THE OZARKS REGION AS REPEATED ROUNDS OF
CONVECTION ARE LIKELY TO DEVELOP.

A SURFACE LOW WILL DEVELOP OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS TODAY AND
TRACK INTO THE OZARKS TONIGHT WITH THE UPPER LOW. EXPECT A BAND OF
STRONG TO SEVERE CONVECTION TO DEVELOP ALONG THE ATTENDANT COLD
FRONT/DRY LINE AND SPREAD EAST INTO SOUTHERN MISSOURI LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. INSTABILITY WILL BE HAMPERED SOMEWHAT BY
CLOUD COVER AND ONGOING CONVECTION BUT SHEAR PROFILES WILL BECOME
MORE FAVORABLE WITH THE APPROACH OF THE UPPER LOW. MODEL SOUNDINGS
SUGGEST DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREAT WITHIN A LINEAR
COMPLEX THAT WILL SWEEP EAST ACROSS THE OZARK THIS EVENING.
ISOLATED TORNADOES CANNOT BE RULED OUT GIVEN THE ENHANCED LOW
LEVEL HELICITIES DUE TO BACKING LOW LEVEL WINDS AHEAD OF THE
APPROACHING SURFACE LOW AND LOW CONDENSATION LEVELS.

MEANWHILE AN AXIS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL IS PROGGED TO SET
UP WITHIN DEFORMATION ZONE ON THE NORTHERN SIDE OF THE UPPER LOW
TRACK. MODELS CONTINUE TO BRING THIS AXIS OF HEAVY RAINFALL ACROSS
SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND CENTRAL MISSOURI. HAVE FOLLOWED CLOSE TO HPC
AND MODEL GUIDANCE WHICH IS DEPICTING 3 TO 4 INCHES OF RAIN IN
THIS AREA. RAINFALL AMOUNT OF 1 TO 2 INCHES WILL BE MORE COMMON
FARTHER SOUTH. WHILE LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE ANYWHERE
ACROSS THE MISSOURI OZARKS AND SOUTHEAST KANSAS...THE GREATEST
RISK OF SIGNIFICANT FLASH FLOODING WILL AFFECT AREAS GENERALLY
NORTH OF A NEOSHO TO ROLLA LINE WHERE A FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS
IN EFFECT. SERIOUS FLASH FLOODING AS WELL AS RIVER FLOODING WILL
LIKELY DEVELOP IF THE FORECAST RAINFALL AMOUNTS MATERIALIZE.

SHOWERS WILL PERSIST INTO THURSDAY MORNING AS THE UPPER LOW PULLS
AWAY. A ZONAL FLOW PATTERN WILL SET UP IN THE WAKE OF THE EXITING
LOW AND BRING ANOTHER MINOR SHORTWAVE INTO THE PLAINS THURSDAY
NIGHT. MODELS CONTINUE TO DEPICT A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX THAT WILL
DEVELOP OVER KANSAS AND MOVE INTO SOUTHWEST FRIDAY EARLY FRIDAY.

ANOTHER MORE POTENT SHORTWAVE AND ASSOCIATED FRONT WILL SWEEP
ACROSS THE REGION SATURDAY BRINGING YET ANOTHER CHANCE OF
CONVECTION.

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 12Z TAF PACKAGE...ACTIVE WEATHER FOR THIS TAF PERIOD.
SEVERAL ROUNDS OF SHRA/TSRA WILL AFFECT THE REGION TODAY AND
TONIGHT AS A POTENT UPPER LEVEL STORM SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH THE
REGION. VIS/CIG RESTRICTIONS THIS MORNING HAVE BEEN QUITE
FLEETING WITH VFR THE CURRENT CONDITIONS. WILL LIKELY SEE A
PROLONGED PERIOD OF MVFR AS SHRA/TSRA ENTERS THE AREA...WITH
OCCASIONAL BOUTS OF IFR VIS/CIG IN HEAVIER RAINFALL. SFC LOW
PRESSURE WILL LIKELY PASS OVER OR JUST TO THE SOUTH OF BOTH
JLN/SGF AERODROMES...WINDS WILL BACK TO EAST AND SHIFT TO A
WESTERLY DIRECTION VERY LATE IN THE FORECAST PERIOD.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF THE MISSOURI
OZARKS AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

  WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED:

  NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING VERY HEAVY
  RAINFALL...WIND GUSTS TO 50 MPH AND SMALL HAIL.

  A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WINDS
  IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH...HAIL TO THE SIZE OF HALF DOLLARS...AND
  POSSIBLY ISOLATED TORNADOES.

  TORRENTIAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 2 TO 4 INCHES AND FLASH
  FLOODING.

  AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:

  THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE DAY ACROSS THE OUTLOOK
  AREA. THE GREATEST RISK OF SEVERE STORMS WILL OCCUR ACROSS
  SOUTHERN MISSOURI...OR SOUTH OF A LINE FROM LAMAR TO ROLLA.

  DISCUSSION:

 NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP TODAY AS A STRONG STORM
 SYSTEM TRACKS OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PLAINS. A FEW ELEVATED
 THUNDERSTORMS MAY PRODUCE SEVERE HAIL TO THE SIZE OF HALF
 DOLLARS DURING THE MORNING HOURS. THE POTENTIAL OF STRONG TO
 SEVERE STORMS WILL INCREASE LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS
 WIND SHEAR INCREASES IN ADVANCE OF THE APPROACHING STORM
 SYSTEM...AND SURFACE LOW PRESSURE TRACKS INTO FAR SOUTHERN
 MISSOURI. A LINE OF STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WILL LIKELY MOVE OUT
 OF OKLAHOMA AND INTO SOUTHERN MISSOURI LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND
 EVENING. LOCALIZED DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREAT WITH
 THESE STORMS. HOWEVER...AN ISOLATED TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT.

 IN ADDITION...HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD WITH
 TOTAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 2 TO 4 INCHES POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY
 ALONG AND NORTH OF INTERSTATE 44. THE POTENTIAL OF FLASH FLOODING
 WILL INCREASE THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY.

 FLOODING OF SMALL STREAMS...LOW WATER CROSSINGS...AND SOME
 RIVERS MAY BE ONGOING THURSDAY.

 THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE LATE THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY
 MORNING...AND AGAIN SATURDAY. A FEW OF THESE STORMS MAY BECOME
 SEVERE.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

 SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND
 EVENING ACROSS FAR SOUTHERN MISSOURI.
