AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
319 AM CDT SAT MAY 24 2008

.DISCUSSION...

THE MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE WILL CONTINUE TO BE ON THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. INITIALLY...ANY
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE AREA WILL BE MORE MESOSCALE DRIVEN WITH
AN OVERALL LACK OF SYNOPTIC SCALE FEATURES. THAT WILL CHANGE
STARTING MONDAY NIGHT AS A COLD FRONT BEGINS TO MOVE SOUTH INTO
THE REGION. AFTER A VERY WARM AND HUMID MEMORIAL DAY
WEEKEND...THIS FRONT WILL GIVE US A BREAK FROM THE SUMMERLIKE HEAT
AND HUMIDITY.

TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE AXIS WILL REMAIN
ENTRENCHED ACROSS THE REGION. AS WAS THE CASE ON FRIDAY...THE CAP
WILL REMAIN TOO STRONG FOR ANY TYPE OF AIRMASS THUNDERSTORMS. AS
WAS MENTIONED EARLIER...NOT SEEING ANY SYNOPTIC SCALE FEATURES TO
HELP INITIATE CONVECTION EITHER. WILL LIKELY NEED A STRONG OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY OR MCV FROM CONVECTION OUT WEST TO GIVE US ANY REAL SHOT
AT STORMS. EVEN THE TIMING FOR ANY OF THESE SUCH FEATURES LOOKS
POOR AS THEY WILL LIKELY COME THROUGH DURING THE LATE NIGHT AND
MORNING HOURS. WILL THEREFORE ONLY PLACE LOW POPS OUT WEST TO
COVER ANY DECAYING MCS ACTIVITY AND COVER THE SLIM POSSIBILITY OF
SOMETHING BEING KICKED UP WITH RELATED MESOSCALE FEATURES. OF
COURSE...WE WILL BE WATCHING RADAR TRENDS CLOSELY WITH RESPECT TO
THE SQUALL LINE MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL KANSAS AND WILL MAKE
TWEAKS AS NEEDED. TEMPERATURES TODAY LOOK VERY SIMILAR TO THOSE OF
FRIDAY...WITH TEMPERATURES ON SUNDAY LOOKING A FEW DEGREES WARMER.

MEMORIAL DAY...THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL FLATTEN EVER SO SLIGHTLY.
THIS WILL GIVE US A SLIGHTLY BETTER OPPORTUNITY FOR CONVECTION. AT
THIS TIME...THE BEST CHANCE FOR STORMS LOOKS TO BE UP ACROSS
CENTRAL MISSOURI CLOSER TO SLIGHTLY BETTER DYNAMICS AND WHAT COULD
BE REMNANT MESOSCALE BOUNDARIES. BY MONDAY NIGHT...THE
AFOREMENTIONED COLD FRONT WILL BEGIN ITS APPROACH INTO CENTRAL
MISSOURI. MAY SEE THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP ALONG THIS FRONT OR
POSSIBLY BACK WEST ACROSS KANSAS...PUSHING INTO THE AREA
OVERNIGHT. TEMPERATURES AHEAD OF THIS FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO BE
WELL ABOVE NORMAL.

TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...THAT FRONT WILL BE SLOW TO MOVE THROUGH
THE REGION. KEPT CHANCE POPS GOING INTO WEDNESDAY FOR NOW. WILL
NEED TO WATCH HEAVY RAIN THREAT AS A COUPLE OF ROUNDS OF
CONVECTION WILL BE POSSIBLE. ONCE THE FRONT DOES CLEAR...A MUCH
COOLER AND DRIER AIRMASS WILL FILTER INTO THE REGION.

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 06Z TAF PACKAGE...PRIMARY FORECAST ISSUE WILL BE STRATUS
DECK ACROSS THE REGION. SECONDARY CONCERNS RELATED TO STRONG LINE
OF STORMS OVER SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS AT THIS HOUR AND ANY POSSIBLE
AFFECTS THIS MAY HAVE ON THE AERODROMES. STRATUS DECK HAS EXPANDED
OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS...GENERALLY ABOVE 2KFT. CIRRUS BLOW OFF
FROM CONVECTION OVER THE HIGH PLAINS ALONG WITH A WELL MIXED
BOUNDARY LAYER WILL LIKELY RESULT IN A CONTINUED MVFR CIG
OVERNIGHT. CONVECTION OVER KS/OK IS QUITE HEALTHY AT THIS TIME.
ASSUMING A SLIGHT ACCELERATION TO THIS LINE...AND ASSUMING THE
LINE CAN HOLD TOGETHER...IT WOULD APPROACH THE JLN AERODROME AFTER
10Z. MOST LIKELY SCENARIO IS A WEAKENING TREND WITH A FEW TS
POSSIBLE TOWARD SUNRISE BEFORE DISSIPATION...VCTS HAS BEEN
INCLUDED FOR THIS SCENARIO. NIGHT SHIFT WILL HAVE TO KEEP A CLOSE
EYE ON THIS LINE AND ANY FLUCTUATIONS IN THE STRATUS DECK. SCT TO
BKN STRATO CU DECK EXPECTED ON SATURDAY WITH LITTLE IF ANY
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT GIVEN WARM TEMPS ALOFT. SOUTHEAST FLOW WILL
CONTINUE AT THE SFC.
