AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1110 PM CST WED NOV 5 2008

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...

.UPDATE...

THE LATEST RADAR AND SATELLITE IMAGERY INDICATE THAT THE STORM
MODE APPEARS TO BE SHIFTING TO MORE OR A SQUALL LINE AS STRONGER
STORM CORES MERGE ALONG A LINE FROM NEAR JOPLIN TO TULSA...AND AN
UPPER LEVEL JET ROUNDS THE BASE OF THE UPPER TROUGH OVER SOUTH
CENTRAL OKLAHOMA AND SHIFTS NORTHEAST TOWARD THE OZARKS. THE MOST
RECENT SEVERE REPORTS HAVE COME OUT OF THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF
THE STORM COMPLEX WITH 60 MPH WINDS AND DIME TO NICKEL SIZE HAIL.
STILL EXPECT STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS OVER THE FORECAST AREA AS
THE SQUALL LINE SHIFTS EAST ACROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT.

TERRY
&&

.DISCUSSION...

MAIN FORECAST FOCUS WILL BE THE THREAT FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS OVER
THE NEXT 12 TO 18 HOURS AS A STRONG STORM SYSTEM CROSSES THE
CENTRAL UNITED STATES. MUCH COOLER WEATHER IS THEN EXPECTED FROM THE
UPCOMING WEEKEND INTO NEXT WEEK. ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM IS EXPECTED
TO IMPACT THE AREA SOMETIME IN THE MONDAY TO WEDNESDAY TIME FRAME.

TONIGHT...STRONG UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE WILL SLOWLY PUSH EAST
ACROSS THE CORN BELT. AT THE SURFACE...A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH INTO
SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND WESTERN MISSOURI LATE TONIGHT...MAKING IT TO
THE HIGHWAY 65 CORRIDOR BY SUNRISE. STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS ARE
EXPECTED ALONG THIS FRONT...AS WELL AS ALONG A PRE FRONTAL TROUGH
THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. PLEASE REFER TO THE MESOSCALE
CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION BELOW FOR GREATER DETAIL ON THE SEVERE
WEATHER THREAT. BRISK SOUTH TO SOUTHEAST WINDS AHEAD OF THE FRONT
WILL SHIFT TO THE WEST. SPEAKING OF WINDS...WE HAVE NOT MET WIND
ADVISORY CRITERIA UP TO THIS POINT. WILL LIKELY BE CANCELLING THE
WIND ADVISORY BY 4 PM.

THURSDAY...THAT FRONT WILL QUICKLY PUSH EAST OUT OF CENTRAL AND
SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI IN THE MORNING. THE THREAT FOR
THUNDERSTORMS WILL END ONCE THE FRONT EXITS THE AREA. WE MAY
ACTUALLY SEE A BRIEF PERIOD OF CLEARING AS A DRY SLOT WORKS INTO
THE AREA. WRAP AROUND MOISTURE MAY THEN BRING MORE CLOUDINESS INTO
THE AREA BY THE AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY OVER CENTRAL MISSOURI.
TEMPERATURES ARE A TOUGH CALL GIVEN THE INCREASING CLOUD COVER AND
COOLING LOW LEVELS. GENERALLY SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE MAV
AND MET. THURSDAY WILL AGAIN BE WINDY AS LOW LEVEL PRESSURE
GRADIENTS REMAIN RATHER TIGHT. WINDS WILL ALSO BECOME GUSTY BY THE
AFTERNOON AS THE LOW LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE EFFICIENTLY MIX OUT.

THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT...THAT UPPER LEVEL LOW
PRESSURE WILL FINALLY BEGIN TO PUSH EAST INTO THE GREAT LAKES. ONE
MORE UPPER LEVEL WAVE WILL COME AROUND THE SOUTHERN FLANK OF THE
LOW AND DRIVE A WEAK SURFACE TROUGH ACROSS THE AREA. NOT OUT OF
THE QUESTION WE COULD SEE A LIGHT SHOWER OR TWO UP ACROSS CENTRAL
MISSOURI ON FRIDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE ON THE COOL SIDE AS 850
MB TEMPERATURES HOVER AT OR BELOW ZERO DEGREES CELSIUS.

UPCOMING WEEKEND...THE AREA WILL REMAIN UNDER A CYCLONIC NORTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT. MOISTURE LOOKS PRETTY LIMITED SO AM NOT EXPECTING ANY
PRECIPITATION. THE COOL TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE WITH HIGHS
STRUGGLING TO GET INTO THE UPPER 40S AND LOWER 50S OVER MOST AREAS.

EARLY NEXT WEEK...LONG WAVE CHARTS CONTINUE TO FAVOR DIGGING OF
ENERGY OUT OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST. MEDIUM RANGE MODELS CONTINUE
TO INDICATE ENERGY DIVING INTO THE FOUR CORNERS REGION AND
EVENTUALLY EJECTING OUT TOWARDS THE OZARKS. STILL NOT A REAL GOOD
SIGNAL FOR TIMING...BUT FEEL THAT SLIGHT TO LOW END CHANCE POPS
ARE WARRANTED STARTING SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. DO NOT SEE ANY BIG
WARM UPS AS LOW LEVEL TRAJECTORIES WILL LIKELY REMAIN OUT OF THE
EAST AND NORTHEAST.

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 06Z TAFS...WILL CONTINUE TO INCLUDE WIND SHEAR IN TAFS
THROUGH THE NIGHT BASED ON LATEST WIND PROFILER DATA. LINE OF
STORMS PERSISTING NEAR THE MO/KS BORDER FOR THE PAST SEVERAL HOURS
IS FINALLY SHOWING SIGNS OF EASTWARD MOVEMENT AS SQUALL LINE
BEGINS TO DEVELOP...SO WILL CONTINUE VICINITY THUNDER WITH
EMBEDDED TEMPO FROM AROUND 06-10Z.

MAIN WIND SHIFT WITH COLD FRONT PASSAGE IS EXPECTED BY MID/LATE
MORNING WITH DRY SLOT CLEARING OUT CLOUD COVER BY EARLY AFTERNOON.
