Area forecast discussion, Jan 8, 3:59 AM CST, 17 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
359 AM CST TUE JAN 8 2008

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...

.UPDATE...

LATEST OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS AND SHORT RANGE MODEL DATA INDICATE THAT
THE SEVERE CONVECTIVE LINE WILL SLOWLY WEAKEN AS IT MARCHES ACROSS
CENTRAL AND SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI. LATEST RUC ANALYSIS INDICATES
THAT AROUND 500 J/KG OF MUCAPE REMAIN AHEAD OF THE LINE. ALTHOUGH
THESE STORMS ARE SLIGHTLY ELEVATED...VERY STRONG LOW LEVEL WIND
SHEAR WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT AN ISOLATED TORNADO THREAT. BIGGEST
THREAT WITH THESE STORMS APPEARS TO BE STRONG STRAIGHT LINE
WINDS...WITH MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL. ANY LINE SEGMENTS THAT
ORIENTATE NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST WOULD LIKELY HAVE THE GREATEST
WIND THREAT...GREATER THAN 70 MPH...GIVEN WIND SHEAR PROFILES IN
THE LOWEST LEVELS. GUSTY WINDS UP TO 30 KNOTS WILL ALSO BE
POSSIBLE IN THE TRAILING STRATIFORM REGION EAST OF HIGHWAY 71. NON
THUNDERSTORM WIND GUSTS WILL ALSO BE AIDED BY STRONG PRESSURE
RISE/FALL COUPLETS ACROSS THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA UNTIL AFTER
SUNRISE.
