AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
609 PM CDT THU JUN 5 2008

.DISCUSSION...

A DANGEROUS WEATHER EPISODE FOR THE CENTRAL PLAINS IS IN PROGRESS
THIS AFTERNOON.  SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING ALONG A DRYLINE
OVER CENTRAL KANSAS IN RESPONSE TO COOLING TEMPERATURES ALOFT
SPREADING OVER A HIGHLY SHEARED AND UNSTABLE AIRMASS.  THE EVOLUTION
AND EASTWARD PROGRESSION OF THESE STORMS WILL COMPLETELY DICTATE HOW
FRIDAYS SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL WILL UNFOLD FOR EXTREME SOUTHEAST
KANSAS AND THE MISSOURI OZARKS.  DISCERNING
TIMING...POSITIONING...AND INTENSITY OF THUNDERSTORMS EARLY FRIDAY
MORNING INTO FRIDAY NIGHT WERE THE PRIMARY FOCUSES FOR TODAYS
FORECAST ANALYSIS.

THE LATEST FORECAST MODEL CONSENSUS SUGGESTS THAT TONIGHTS CENTRAL
PLAINS CONVECTION WILL CONGEAL INTO A SQUALL LINE...EVENTUALLY
IMPACTING WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE COUNTY WARNING AREA SOMETIME AFTER
2AM.  DUE TO LOW LEVEL JET INFLUENCES...THESE STORMS WILL LIKELY
MAINTAIN SEVERE INTENSITY AS THEY TRANSLATE EAST INTO THE SGF CWA.
DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS OF 70 MPH...LARGE HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF
HALF DOLLARS...AND AN ISOLATED TORNADO CAN NOT BE RULED OUT FOR
AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF A LINE FROM JOPLIN TO SCHELL CITY.

FRIDAYS FORECAST REMAINS UNCERTAIN...AND THERE ARE A FEW DIFFERENT
SCENARIOS THAT COULD PLAY OUT.  AGAIN...FRIDAYS STORM POTENTIAL IS
DEPENDENT UPON TONIGHTS CONVECTION...THEREFORE FRIDAYS FORECAST WILL
BECOME BETTER UNDERSTOOD WITH TIME.  ULTIMATELY IF THE MORNING
CONVECTION EITHER SHIFTS EAST OF THE REGION OR DISSIPATES WHILE
CLOUD COVER ERODES...THEN THE AIRMASS COULD DESTABILIZE AND BECOME
VOLATILE.  WHO KNOWS IF RESIDUAL OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES WILL TRIGGER
FRIDAY AFTERNOON CONVECTION.  THE DRYLINE BECOMES STATIONARY OVER
SOUTHEAST KANSAS...WHICH COULD ALSO BECOME A TRIGGER.

IF CLOUD COVER PERSISTS AND THE AIRMASS REMAINS RAIN
CONTAMINATED...THEN THE SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL DECREASES.  AS OF
NOW THERE IS NO SIGNALS WITHIN QPF OUTPUT FROM THE GFS OR THE WRF
THAT SUGGESTS ADDITIONAL SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FRIDAY AFTERNOON.  BUT
I DO NOT SOLELY BUY INTO THIS ANALYSIS EITHER.  A LOT OF DRY DESERT
AIR ADVECTS IN ALOFT AND SPREADS OVER THE WARM SECTOR FRIDAY
AFTERNOON.  THIS COULD ERODE CLOUDS AND ALLOW THE AIRMASS TO
CHARGE.  IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE HOW FRIDAY MATERIALIZES.  AT
ANY RATE...THE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN SPRINGFIELD WILL BE
CLOSELY MONITORING ALL DATA SOURCES IN DETERMINING THE POTENTIAL FOR
HAZARDOUS WEATHER ON FRIDAY.

MOSTLY DRY AND HOT CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE SATURDAY -
MONDAY TIME FRAME.  AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES WILL CONSISTENTLY RANGE
FROM THE MID 80S TO LOWER 90S.  A MOIST AIRMASS WILL REMAIN IN
PLACE...AND I CAN NOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT ISOLATED PULSE
THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING PERIODS.
AGAIN MOST LOCATIONS WILL REMAIN DRY.

THE LATEST MEDIUM RANGE MODELS INDICATE THAT THE NEXT ORGANIZED
EPISODE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS COULD IMPACT THE REGION NEXT
MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY.  A COLD FRONT MOVES IN FROM THE
NORTH...BECOMING STATIONARY SOMEWHERE WITHIN OR NEAR THE CWA.  THIS
FEATURE COULD BECOME A FOCUS FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR A FEW
PERIODS...IF IT REMAINS STATIONARY FOR A LENGTH OF TIME.

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 00Z TAFS...GUSTY SURFACE WINDS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE
EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS AT BOTH THE JLN/SGF TERMINAL LOCATIONS
IN ADVANCE OF THE STRONG AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IN THE PLAINS. LINE
OF SEVERE STORMS OCCURRING OVER CENTRAL KANSAS WILL GRADUALLY
SHIFT EAST INTO THE WESTERN CWA TOWARDS 05-06Z AND POSSIBLY INTO
THE JLN AREA BY 08-09Z.

756 PM CDT THU JUN 5 2008

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

SOUTH WINDS OF 20 TO 40 MPH CAN BE EXPECTED TONIGHT ACROSS
SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND WESTERN MISSOURI IN ADVANCE OF A STRONG AREA
OF LOW PRESSURE.

A LINE OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPED DURING THE AFTERNOON
ACROSS KANSAS AND OKLAHOMA AND WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT EASTWARD
TONIGHT...REACHING EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND FAR SOUTHWEST
MISSOURI LATE THIS EVENING. THE MAIN SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WITH
THESE STORMS WILL BE DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS AND LARGE HAIL.
IN ADDITION...ISOLATED TORNADOES CAN NOT BE RULED OUT DUE TO
SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF WIND SHEAR IN THE LOWER ATMOSPHERE.

HEAVY RAIN AND AND FLASH FLOODING ARE ALSO POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT
ACROSS FAR WESTERN MISSOURI AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS AS THE
LINE OF STORMS MOVES INTO THE AREA.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

ONGOING STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS FRIDAY MORNING WILL SHIFT
EAST INTO THE MISSOURI OZARKS. DAYTIME HEATING FRIDAY AFTERNOON
WILL LIKELY RESULT IN EITHER INTENSIFYING EXISTING STORMS...OR
REDEVELOPING ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS. IF RAIN AND CLOUD COVER
CONTAMINATE THE OSAGE PLAINS AND OZARKS AIRMASS THROUGHOUT MOST
OF FRIDAY...THEN THE RISK FOR ADDITIONAL SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
WOULD DECREASE.

HOWEVER...IF THE OSAGE PLAINS AND OZARKS AIRMASS REMAINS SUNNY
AND THE ATMOSPHERE DESTABILIZES AS A RESULT OF DAYTIME HEATING
...EXPECTED WIND SHEAR MAGNITUDES WOULD CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT FOR
ALL MODES OF SEVERE WEATHER INCLUDING DAMAGING WINDS...LARGE
HAIL...AND TORNADOES. THE POTENTIAL SLOW MOVEMENT OF
THIS ACTIVITY WILL RESULT IN HEAVY RAINFALL AND A LOCALIZED RISK
OF FLASH FLOODING.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED AFTER 11 PM TONIGHT
ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND FAR WESTERN MISSOURI.
