Severe Thunderstorm Warning 345, NWS Springfield, MO

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...AVIATION UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1200 PM CDT FRI JUN 6 2008

.UPDATE...

LIGHT SHOWERS WILL LIKELY DIMINISH BY LATE MORNING AS LOW LEVEL
JET DECREASES AND CLOUD TOPS CONTINUE TO WARM. DRYLINE OVER EASTERN
KANSAS WILL MIX EASTWARD WITH LATE MORNING AND AFTERNOON HEATING.

12Z KSGF SOUNDING SHOWED CAPE VALUES APPROACHING 3000 J/KG ONCE
CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 80S ARE REACHED. WIND SHEAR
PROFILE WAS VERY STRONG WITH HELICITIES OVER 700 M2/S2...BUT
EXPECT THIS VALUE TO DECREASE THROUGH THE MORNING WITH LOSS OF THE
LOW LEVEL JET. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUE OF 1.72 INCHES ON THE
SOUNDING INDICATE POTENTIAL FOR VERY EFFICIENT RAINFALL PRODUCTION
TODAY.

THERE IS AN UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK OVER EASTERN COLORADO THIS
MORNING WHICH WILL ROUND THE BASE OF THE UPPER TROUGH AXIS OVER
CENTRAL KANSAS AND SHOOT NORTHEAST ACROSS NORTHWEST MO THIS
AFTERNOON. RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS LIKE THE GREATEST IMPACT FROM THE JET
STREAK WILL BE TO OUR NORTH...BUT WILL MONITOR ITS MOVEMENT
CLOSELY...AS IT COULD GIVE OUR AREA SOME ENHANCED LIFT DURING MAX
DAYTIME HEATING.

.AVIATION...
FOR THE 18Z TAFS...NARROW LINES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE
OBSERVED ACROSS SOUTHWEST MISSOURI...WITH LITTLE EASTWARD MOVEMENT
OF THE LINES SEEN THE PAST FEW HOURS. ONE JUST TO THE EAST OF THE
SPRINGFIELD TERMINAL...ANOTHER MAYBE 10 MILES EAST OF THE JOPLIN
TERMINAL AND A THIRD SITUATED IN BETWEEN THE OTHER TWO NEAR MOUNT
VERNON. CELLS IN THE LINES ARE MOVING RAPIDLY NORTHEAST ALONG THE
LINES. EVENTUALLY DO BELIEVE THE MIDDLE LINE MAY GET SOME
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY INTO THE SPRINGFIELD TERMINAL LATER THIS
AFTERNOON AND HAVE FORECAST TEMPO MVFR CONDITIONS WITH THUNDERSTORMS
AT THE SGF AERODROME.

WILL BRING WIND SHEAR BACK INTO BOTH TERMINALS THIS EVENING AS
ANOTHER AREA OF LOW PRESSURE DEEPENS OVER NORTHEAST COLORADO.

.PREV DISCUSSION...
/ISSUED 651 AM CDT FRI JUN 6 2008/

A BROKEN LINE OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUES TO
TRACK FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS SOUTHWEST MISSOURI THIS MORNING.
THE STRONGEST STORMS HAVE PRODUCED WINDS OF 60 TO 70 MPH. THE
CONVECTION WILL LIKELY CONTINUE TO FESTER THROUGH THE MORNING
AIDED BY 0-6KM WIND SHEAR NEAR 50 KNOTS. HOWEVER THE FURTHER EAST
THAT STORMS PROPAGATE...FAVORABLE WIND SHEAR AND CAPE DECREASE
AND CIN INCREASES. THUS...A GRADUAL WEAKENING OF THE STORMS IS
EXPECTED. REDEVELOPMENT OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE
THROUGH THE DAY...AS DAYTIME HEATING AND MESOSCALE OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES WILL AID IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH WHERE RAINFALL HAS ENDED
THIS MORNING WILL BE DROPPED WITH THE MORNING PACKAGE ISSUANCE.
WE WILL CONTINUE TO SHAVE WESTERN COUNTIES FROM THE TORNADO WATCH
AS THE CONVECTION PROGRESSES EASTWARD.

WARM AND MUGGY CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS
SOUTHWEST FLOW CONTINUES ALOFT WITH A BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROUGH IN
THE WESTERN CONUS AND RIDGING IN THE SOUTHEAST CONUS. WILL BEGIN TO
INCREASE POPS SUNDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK AS ANOTHER SURFACE
LOW DEVELOPS IN SOUTHWEST KANSAS...AN UPPER TROUGH MOVES INTO THE
PLAINS AND A BAROCLINIC ZONE SHARPENS FROM NORTHERN MISSOURI TO
SOUTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA BRINGING A FOCUSING MECHANISM FOR THE
DEVELOPMENT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.

UPPER LEVEL RIDGING BUILDS INTO THE OZARKS DURING THE MIDDLE OF
THE WEEK AHEAD OF ANOTHER DEEPENING TROUGH IN THE WESTERN CONUS
WHICH WILL BRING ADDITIONAL CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
LATE IN THE WEEK.
