May 31, 1:17 PM CDT	HAIL 0.25	Carthage, MO

Local storm reports filed while the alert was in force, from inside its polygon or its counties.

Did it verify

Not verified. The Iowa Environmental Mesonet's Cow found no qualifying storm report inside this severe thunderstorm warning while it was in force. That is not proof nothing happened: reports are thin where few people live.

Cow counts a report within 15 km of the polygon while the warning was in force: a tornado for a tornado warning; hail of 1 inch or more, a gust of 58 mph or more or wind damage for a severe thunderstorm warning; a flash flood report for a flash flood warning.

Area forecast discussion, May 31, 12:19 PM CDT, 54 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1219 PM CDT SAT MAY 31 2008

...UPDATE TO AVIATION...

.UPDATE...

EYES ARE CURRENTLY FOCUSED STAGE WEST. WARM ADVECTION REGIME OVER
SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS HAS LED TO VIGOROUS THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT.
NUMEROUS REPORTS OF VERY LARGE HAIL HAVE BEEN RECEIVED WITH THIS
ACTIVITY IN AND NEAR THE WICHITA AREA. THE BULK OF THIS ACTIVITY
WILL REMAIN JUST TO THE WEST OF THE OUTLOOK AREA THROUGH MID
MORNING...WITH THE BETTER RISK OF STORMS OVER OUR EXTREME
SOUTHEAST KANSAS COUNTIES FROM MID TO LATE MORNING. OVERALL SYSTEM
MOTION HAS BEEN MORE TO THE SOUTHEAST DURING THE PAST HOUR.
HOWEVER NUMEROUS CELL SPLITS HAVE RESULTED IN VASTLY DEVIANT
MOTIONS WITH A FEW STORMS.

AS OPPOSED TO YESTERDAY...NOT MUCH IS THERE TO HOLD BACK
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT TODAY. WHILE THE SURFACE FRONT IS PARKED TO
OUR NORTH...A FEW BOUNDARIES HAVE BEEN LEFT OVER FROM CONVECTION
FRIDAY EVENING. THE AREA CERTAINLY REMAINS QUITE MOIST AND AMPLE
HEATING WILL LEAD TO MODERATE TO HIGH INSTABILITY. THIS WILL
LIKELY RESULT IN SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT FROM THE LATE
MORNING HOURS ONWARD. THE AREA WILL BE ON THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY
OF DECENT MID LEVEL FLOW...WITH 40KT DEEP LAYER SHEAR SUPPORTIVE
OF MULTICELL AND SUPERCELL STRUCTURES. COOLER MID LEVEL TEMPS WILL
ENHANCE THE RISK FOR HAIL TODAY...WITH GOLF BALL OR EVEN SLIGHTLY
LARGER HAIL POSSIBLE.

ALL TOLD...IT LOOKS LIKE ON AGAIN...OFF AGAIN THUNDERSTORM
ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED FROM LATE THIS MORNING ONWARD. LOW LEVEL JET
DEVELOPMENT TONIGHT...ALONG WITH LINGERING LOW LEVEL BOUNDARIES...
WILL RESULT IN A MAINTENANCE OF THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THROUGH
THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. HAIL AND WIND WILL BE CONSISTENT SEVERE
WEATHER RISKS...WITH AN OUTSIDE SHOT AT AN ISOLATED TORNADO WITH
THE STRONGEST OF STORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

GAGAN

&&

.DISCUSSION...

THE THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOPED ACROSS THE AREA LAST EVENING
DIMINISHED THIS MORNING AS INSTABILITY WEAKENED. STORMS CONTINUE
EAST OF THE CWA ACROSS EXTREME EASTERN MISSOURI ON TO THE EAST.
THESE STORMS HAVE BEEN AIDED...IN PART...BY A SOUTHWESTERLY LOW
LEVEL JET. ACROSS THE AREA THE LOW LEVEL WINDS ARE QUITE WEAK...
HOWEVER ACROSS CENTRAL OKLAHOMA AND SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS THE LOW
LEVEL JET IS PICKING UP SOME. THIS LOW LEVEL JET COULD BE THE
FOCUS FOR ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS EARLY THIS MORNING. IF THIS
ACTIVITY DEVELOPS IT SHOULD MOVE TO THE EAST AND COULD AFFECT THE
WESTERN CWA DURING THE MORNING HOURS.

A WARM AND MUGGY AIRMASS WILL REMAIN OVER THE AREA TODAY...WITH
TEMPERATURES ONCE AGAIN WARMING INTO THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 80S WITH
DEWPOINTS WELL INTO THE 60S. HOWEVER...TEMPERATURES ALOFT WILL BE
COOL DUE TO AN ELEVATED FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE AREA YESTERDAY
EVENING. THIS WILL RESULT IN A WEAKER CAP MAKING SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE WITH THE HEATING OF THE DAY. THIS EVENING
INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS A WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL RIDE
THE NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT INTO THE AREA. A LOW LEVEL JET WILL ALSO
BE A LITTLE STRONGER TONIGHT...WHICH COULD ALLOW CONVECTION TO
LAST LONGER INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. THE ATMOSPHERE WILL BECOME
QUITE UNSTABLE ONCE AGAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING...AND WITH
0-6KM BULK SHEAR VALUES AROUND 40KT....SEVERE WEATHER WILL ONCE
AGAIN BE POSSIBLE. THE MAIN HAZARDS WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS...
LARGE HAIL AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL. ALTHOUGH THE RISK FOR
TORNADOES APPEARS TO BE LOW...CANNOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT AN
ISOLATED ONE ACROSS ACROSS KANSAS INTO EXTREME SOUTHWESTERN
MISSOURI...WHERE SHEAR WILL BE A BIT STRONGER.

THUNDERSTORM CHANCES WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA ON SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY AS A WARM FRONT PUSHES THROUGH THE AREA AND THE AIRMASS
REMAINS MOIST AND UNSTABLE. GIVEN THE INSTABILITY THAT WILL BE IN
PLACE...STRONG TO SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPMENT. WARM AND MUGGY CONDITIONS LOOK TO
CONTINUE THROUGH MOST OF NEXT WEEK. COULD SEE SOME POP UP
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE EVENING HOURS TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.
THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH THROUGH THE AREA
BRINGING MORE WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS...AND ADDITIONAL CHANCES
FOR SEVERE WEATHER TO THE AREA.

WISE

&&

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 18Z TAFS...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS
WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT BOTH JLN/SGF TERMINAL LOCATIONS THROUGH
THE FIRST PART OF THE AFTERNOON. CLOUDS AND RAIN WILL LIKELY KEEP
TEMPERATURES DOWN QUITE A BIT INITIALLY...HOWEVER SOME CLEARING BY
LATE AFTERNOON COULD INCREASE THE INSTABILITY SOMEWHAT. STILL
LOOKING AT NEXT ROUND OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS TO OCCUR LATE
TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY AS ANOTHER COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPS
OUT IN KANSAS AND SHIFTS SOUTHEAST INTO WESTERN MISSOURI SIMILAR
TO THIS MORNING. WILL SEE CEILINGS FOR A FEW HOURS THIS AFTERNOON
FROM 2500 TO 3500 AT SGF BEFORE CLOUDS BREAK UP LATER IN THE AFTERNOON.

1233 PM CDT SAT MAY 31 2008

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

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

  WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED:

HAIL TO THE SIZE OF QUARTERS...
DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS OF 60 MPH...
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL...

 AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:

STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL MAINLY CONFINED TO AREAS
OF SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND SOUTHWEST MISSOURI SOUTH AND EAST OF AN
OSCEOLA TO SALEM LINE THIS AFTERNOON.

  DISCUSSION:

THUNDERSTORMS LEFT OVER FROM A THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX THAT MOVED
OUT OF KANSAS THIS MORNING AND INTO MISSOURI WILL CONTINUE
OVER MUCH OF SOUTHERN MISSOURI THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.  THIS
WILL HELP TO LIMIT THE INSTABILITY OVER A LARGE PORTION OF THE
AREA. HOWEVER...CLEARING ON THE BACK SIDE OF THESE THUNDERSTORMS
OVER EXTREME WESTERN MISSOURI WILL ALLOW FOR INSTABILITY TO
INCREASE LATER THIS AFTERNOON. A FEW OF THE STORMS OVER SOUTHWEST
MISSOURI AND SOUTHEAST KANSAS COULD PRODUCE LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WIND GUSTS.

ANOTHER THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER KANSAS
TONIGHT AND PUSH INTO SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF
MISSOURI LATE TONIGHT AND SUNDAY MORNING. LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING
WIND AND HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ALL BE POSSIBLE WITH THIS
THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE ONGOING SUNDAY MORNING ACROSS SOUTHERN
MISSOURI. ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED ACROSS
CENTRAL KANSAS...WHICH MAY SPREAD EASTWARD INTO EXTREME SOUTHEAST
KANSAS AND SOUTHWESTERN MISSOURI ON SUNDAY. SEVERE STORMS WITH
LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE.

CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST THROUGH MONDAY AS A
FRONTAL BOUNDARY LINGERS NEAR THE AREA AND SEVERAL UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCES MOVE ACROSS THE REGION.

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 AFTERNOON OVER SOUTHWEST
SECTIONS OF MISSOURI AND SOUTHEAST KANSAS.
