AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1005 PM CDT FRI MAY 30 2008

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...

.UPDATE...

A NEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR A LARGE
PORTION OF THE MISSOURI OZARKS WHICH REPLACES THE PREVIOUS TORNADO
WATCH.

A COUPLE OF CLUSTERS OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS HAD
DEVELOPED THIS EVENING ACROSS SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL MISSOURI. THE
STORMS FORMED ON THE PERIPHERY OF A MID LEVEL THERMAL RIDGE AND
JUST AHEAD OF A SAGGING FRONT. AXIS OF SURFACE BASED CAPES AROUND
2500 J/KG EXTENDED INTO THE AREA OF CONVECTION. LOW LEVEL SHEAR
HAD INCREASED A BIT WITH 0-1KM SHEAR OF 20 TO 25 KTS. THIS AND
DEEP LAYERED SHEAR NEAR 40 KTS WILL REMAIN SUPPORTIVE ISOLATED
SEVERE STORMS THIS EVENING MAINLY NORTH OF A JOPLIN TO ROLLA LINE.
IN FACT STORMS MOVING ACROSS THE LAKE OF THE OZARKS REGION HAVE
INTENSIFIED AS THEY MOVED INTO A BETTER SHEAR ENVIRONMENT.

WITH THE LACK OF UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT EXPECT STORM DEVELOPMENT TO
BE DRIVEN BY LOW LEVEL MASS CONVERGENCE ALONG CONVECTIVE OUTFLOW
OR AHEAD OF A WEAK FRONT SAGGING SOUTHEAST INTO THE REGION.
WEAKENING STORMS MAY MAKE INTO FAR SOUTHERN MISSOURI LATE THIS
EVENING AND OVERNIGHT.

FOSTER

.DISCUSSION...

SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT)...
MAIN FOCUS IN THE SHORT TERM WILL BE WITH CONVECTION CHANCES AS A
SURFACE BOUNDARY BECOMES STALLED OUT OVER THE AREA.

CURRENTLY COLD FRONT WAS LOCATED FROM EASTERN KANSAS INTO
NORTHWEST MISSOURI WHILE AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM PREVIOUS
CONVECTIVE COMPLEX WAS LOCATED FROM EAST CENTRAL MISSOURI INTO
ILLINOIS. CONVECTION WAS JUST BEGINNING TO DEVELOP IN A BAND FROM
JUST NORTH OF KANSAS CITY TO NEAR CHICAGO.

18Z SOUNDING FROM SGF SHOWS A THERMAL CAPPING INVERSION FROM
AROUND 750 TO 700 MB WITH A TEMPERATURE OF 13 DEG C AT 700 MB.
BOTH GFS/NAM WERE UNDERESTIMATING 700MB TEMPS AT 18Z BUT DO ERODE
THE CAP THIS EVENING ACROSS THE CWA. SHOULD SEE CONVECTION DEVELOP
AHEAD OF THE FRONT OVER SOUTHEAST KANSAS THIS EVENING AS THE CAP
ERODES AS WELL AS CONVECTION SLIDING SOUTH INTO CENTRAL MO
COUNTIES WITHIN THE CWA. SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY AND SHEAR EXIST
FOR LARGE HAIL/DAMAGING WIND/ISOLATED TORNADOES WITH CAPES OF 2500
TO 4000 J/KG AND AMPLE WIND SHEAR.

THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY BEGIN TO DIMINISH BY THE LATE EVENING AS
INSTABILITY DECREASES ALTHOUGH COULD SEE A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX
DEVLEOP OVER SOUTHERN KANSAS LATE TONIGHT AND PUSH ACROSS SOUTHERN
MISSOURI TOWARDS MORNING AND ON SATURDAY. FRONT WILL EVENTUALLY
STALL OUT ALONG THE MISSOURI ARKANSAS BORDER ON SATURDAY WITH THE
MAIN CONVECTIVE CHANCES TO REMAIN AROUND THE FRONT THROUGH THE
REST OF THE WEEKEND.

LINDENBERG

LONG TERM (MONDAY - FRIDAY)...
LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD IS BASED ON HOW THE MAIN
FRONTAL BOUNDARY PROGGED TO MOVE THROUGH THE REGION ON SATURDAY
AFFECTS THE OVERALL PRECIPITATION CHANCES NEXT WEEK WITH SUBTLE
SHORT WAVES MOVING THROUGH A MEAN ZONAL FLOW SCENARIO. HAVE
HIGHLIGHTED THE BEST POTENTIAL OF PRECIPITATION MONDAY MORNING AS
THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO MOVE NORTHWARD THROUGH THE
FORECAST AREA. TIMING WILL BE AN ISSUE FOR LATEST SHIFTS BUT THE
OVERALL SCENARIO SEEMS TO BE FINE AS THE MAIN FORCING AND PRESSURE
SYSTEM REMAINING NEAR THE FORECAST AREA. THE PROBLEM FOR NEXT WEEK
IS BASED ON OVERNIGHT MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE COMPLEXES DEVELOPING
ALONG THE NOSE OF THE LOW LEVEL JET SOMEWHERE IN THE PLAINS AND MID
WEST. IF THE SURFACE BOUNDARY REMAINS CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE AREA...AND
CORFIDI VECTORS FORECAST A SOUTHEAST/EAST DIRECTION...THE COULD LEAD
TO A LARGE SCALE PRECIPITATION EVENT WITH THE MAIN TIME FRAME OF
PRECIPITATION DURING THE LATE EVENING AND EARLY MORNING HOURS. LATER
FORECASTS WILL NEED TO PLAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE APEX OF THE LOW
LEVEL JET...SURFACE FRONTAL POSITION AND SHORT WAVE INDUCED
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. JLT

KS...NONE.

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 00Z TAFS...MAIN FORECAST AND AVIATION PROBLEMS DEAL WITH
CONVECTION LATER THIS EVENING AND DURING THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD.
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING NEAR KCNU...NORTHEAST TOWARD
KSZL WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND MOVE SOUTHEAST DURING THE
EVENING. TIMING WILL REMAIN A PROBLEM SO I INTRODUCED
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE VICINITY AT KJLN AROUND 2Z...AND 3Z FOR KSGF.
LOCALIZED MVFR/IFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES WILL BE POSSIBLE BUT
NOT ENOUGH FOR A TEMPORARY PERIOD AS IF ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT
PRODUCE THESE CONDITIONS WILL BE BRIEF AND LAST LESS THAN A HALF
HOUR. AFTER 12Z SATURDAY...ON GOING THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE
PROBLEMATIC WITH MORE POSSIBILITIES OF BRIEF MVFR/IFR CEILINGS AND
VISIBILITIES. TOO EARLY TO INCLUDE IN THIS TAF FORECAST.

TANEY-OZARK-OREGON-
815 PM CDT FRI MAY 30 2008

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

  WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED:

 SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WITH A FEW SEVERE STORMS CAPABLE OF
 PRODUCING HAIL TO THE SIZE OF QUARTERS...DAMAGING WINDS IN
 EXCESS OF 60 MPH...HEAVY RAINFALL AND POSSIBLY AN ISOLATED
 TORNADO.

  AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:

 THUNDERSTORMS WILL INCREASE FROM SOUTHEAST KANSAS INTO CENTRAL
 MISSOURI THIS EVENING...THEN SPREAD SLOWLY SOUTHWARD. THE STORMS
 WILL AFFECT AREAS NORTHWEST OF A LINE FROM JOPLIN TO ROLLA THROUGH
 THE EVENING HOURS...AND MOVE INTO FAR SOUTHERN MISSOURI AFTER
 MIDNIGHT.

  DISCUSSION:

 THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP IN ADVANCE OF A COLD FRONT
 SHIFTING SOUTHWARD INTO THE AREA. MODERATE INSTABILITY AND
 FAVORABLE WIND SHEAR WILL SUPPORT A FEW SEVERE STORMS FROM
 SOUTHEAST KANSAS INTO CENTRAL MISSOURI THIS EVENING. THE PRIMARY
 THREATS WITH THESE STORMS WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS.
 HOWEVER AN ISOLATED TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT. THE HIGHEST RISK
 OF SEVERE STORMS WILL OCCUR NORTHWEST OF A LINE FROM PITTSBURG
 KANSAS TO CAMDENTON MISSOURI.

 HEAVY RAINFALL AND LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE...
 ESPECIALLY IN AREAS THAT RECEIVE MULTIPLE STORMS IN A SHORT
 PERIOD OF TIME.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

LEFT OVER SATURDAY MORNING THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO SPREAD
ACROSS THE REGION...BEFORE ENDING BEFORE NOON. THERE MAY BE
ENOUGH SHEAR AND INSTABILITY PRESENT FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS. THE PRIMARY HAZARDS WILL BE LARGE
HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL.

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO
MONDAY AS A FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS IN THE REGION AND SEVERAL
UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES MOVE THROUGH.

THUNDERSTORMS WILL ONCE AGAIN BE POSSIBLE LATE IN THE WORK WEEK
AS ANOTHER SYSTEM MOVES INTO THE CENTRAL UNITED STATES.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

 SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED THIS EVENING FROM SOUTHEAST
 KANSAS INTO CENTRAL MISSOURI.
