AT 1027 PM CDT...LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS IN BOONVILLE

DANGERS OF FLOODING. IF FLOODING IS OBSERVED...ACT QUICKLY. DO NOT
ENTER THE WATER. TURN AROUND AND MOVE UP TO HIGHER GROUND. DO NOT
STAY IN AREAS SUBJECT TO FLOODING WHEN WATER BEGINS RISING.

IN HILLY TERRAIN...THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF LOW WATER CROSSINGS WHICH
ARE POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS IN HEAVY RAIN. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO TRAVEL
ACROSS FLOODED ROADS. FIND ALTERNATE ROUTES. IT ONLY TAKES A FEW
INCHES OF SWIFTLY FLOWING WATER TO CARRY VEHICLES AWAY.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
212 PM CDT SAT JUN 27 2009

.DISCUSSION...

18Z SURFACE ANALYSIS AND SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOW WHAT APPEARS TO BE
PREFRONTAL TROUGH WHICH WAS POSITIONED FROM ROUGHLY KLWD THROUGH KSTJ
AND TRAILING BACK TO NEAR KMHK. THE COLD FRONT APPEARED TO BE FROM
ROUGHLY KICL THROUGH KFNB AND SOMEWHERE BETWEEN KCNK AND KSLN. THESE
FEATURES WERE MOVING SOUTHEASTERLY AT A PRETTY DECENT RATE FOR THIS
TIME OF YEAR DUE TO STRONG PRESSURE RISES ACROSS EASTERN NEBRASKA.
SURFACE WINDS AHEAD OF THE TROUGH WERE VEERED SOUTHWESTERLY. SO
DESPITE A GOOD SURGE ON THE SURFACE FEATURES THERE WAS NOT A LOT OF
CONVERGENCE TO WORK WITH. MORNING SOUNDINGS FROM AROUND THE REGION
/TOP...SGF..OUN/ SHOWED FAIRLY DRY AIR ALOFT IN A LAYER FROM ROUGHLY
850MB TO 650MB. FORECAST SOUNDINGS FROM ACROSS THE NORTHWESTERN THIRD
OF MISSOURI MAINTAIN THIS RELATIVELY DRY AIR ALOFT. AFTERNOON SURFACE
TEMPERATURES/DEWPOINTS IN THE MIDDLE 90S/LOW TO MID 70S WILL YIELD A
VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS WITH CAPE VALUES AROUND 3000 TO 3500 J/KG. WITH
THE LARGE VALUES OF CAPE...ANTICIPATE ROBUST INITIAL UPDRAFTS WHICH
MAY PRODUCE MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL INITIALLY GIVEN LOW SHEAR VALUES.
THE BIGGEST THREAT APPEARS TO BE FROM DAMAGING WINDS AS DRY AIR
ALOFT...UNIDIRECTIONAL WINDS...HIGH FREEZING LEVELS AROUND 15.5K TO
16K...AND ALMOST INVERTED V SOUNDINGS ALL POINT TO STRONG
DOWNBURST/STRAIGHT LINE WINDS. VERY HIGH FREEZING LEVELS AND LACK OF
SHEAR SHOULD INHIBIT LARGE HAIL. THE LACK OF SHEAR AND HIGH POTENTIAL
FOR DOWNBURST WINDS SHOULD LEAD TO A COLD POOL SURGE AHEAD OF THE
STORMS WHICH MAY ACT TO DIMINISH THE OVERALL SEVERE THREAT WITHIN THE
COLD POOL. IT MAY ALSO TRIGGER ADDITIONAL STORMS ALONG THE GUST FRONT
WHICH WOULD REPEAT/REINFORCE THE DOWNBURST/COLD POOL CYCLE.
ANTICIPATE INDIVIDUAL CELLS TO BE MOVING GENERALLY IN AN EASTWARD
DIRECTION WITH THE SURFACE TROUGH/FRONT CONTINUING A SOUTHEASTWARD
MOVEMENT. A MAJOR CONCERN IS THE LACK OF CONVERGENCE ALONG THE
SURFACE FEATURES TO INITIALLY TRIGGER STORMS. BUT FEEL GIVEN THE
STRONG INSTABILITY STORMS WILL INITIATE ALONG THE PREFRONTAL
TROUGH...MOST LIKELY ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI AND THEN TRAIL BACK
SOUTHWEST INTO WESTERN MISSOURI AND EASTERN KANSAS WHILE DECREASING
IN COVERAGE. TIMING WILL LIKELY BE DURING PEAK HEATING...AROUND
21Z...DUE TO THE POOR CONVERGENCE ON THE TROUGH AND THE ENERGY FROM
THE UPPER LEVEL WAVE BEING WELL NORTH OF THE AREA.

THE CONVECTION WILL BE MAINLY CONFINED TO THE SERN GRIDS BY EVENING
WITH COOLER AND DRIER AIR SPREADING INTO THE ENTIRE CWA LATE THIS
EVENING. MODELS CONTINUE TO ADVERTISE A COLD VORTEX TO DEVELOP IN
THE OHIO VALLEY AND GREAT LAKES BY EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH COOLER TEMPS
AND CONSIDERABLY DRIER DEWPOINTS ACROSS THE CWA. OTHERWISE...DRY NW
UPPER FLOW TO PREVAIL.

CDB/DB

TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY:
WITH NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT EXPECTED TO PERSIST INTO THE LATER HALF OF
NEXT WEEK...WARMER TEMPERATURES ALOFT/HIGHER THICKNESSES WILL BE
PUSHED WEST OF THE AREA. THIS WILL RESULT IN COOLER...NEAR NORMAL
TEMPERATURES WITH COOLER DEWPOINTS. THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE WILL BE
IDENTIFYING/TIMING WAVES MOVING THROUGH THE NORTHWEST FLOW WHICH MAY
BE ABLE TO TRIGGER SOME PRECIPITATION. FOR NOW...THE OFFICIAL
FORECAST IS DRY BUT ACTUALLY PROBABILITIES OF PRECIPITATION ARE
AROUND 15 PERCENT. WITH THIS TYPE OF PATTERN THERE IS JUST TOO MUCH
UNCERTAINTY IN ANY GIVEN PERIOD OF TIME TO MENTION PRECIPITATION.
THERE MAY BE A BETTER CHANCE TOWARDS THE END OF NEXT WEEK...THURSDAY
INTO FRIDAY...WITH THE ECMWF DEPICTING A JET STREAK TRAVERSING THE
AREA. THE GFS ALSO WANTS TO BRING AN MCS THROUGH THE AREA ALONG THE
NORTHER PERIPHERY OF THE LOW LEVEL JET. THE PATTERNS DEPICTED BY THE
TWO MODELS ARE FAIRLY DIFFERENT BY THIS TIME WITH THE ECMWF MORE
AMPLIFIED THAN THE GFS. WITH SUCH UNCERTAINTY FOR PRECIPITATION WILL
HOLD OFF ON ANY MENTION AT THIS TIME.

.AVIATION...

PREFRONTAL TROUGH IS NR KSTJ WITH A COLD FRONT LAGGING BEHIND IN XTRM
NWRN MO. THE BOUNDARIES ARE MOVING QUICKLY SE AND WILL REACH THE KC
TERMINALS BTWN 20-21Z. THIS WILL LIMIT THE AMOUNT THAT CONVECTION CAN
DEVELOP WITH LITTLE INDICATION SEEN ON STLT. THEREFORE WILL ONLY
MENTION CB IN THE SUFFIX OF THE CLOUD GROUP. OTHERWISE...THE COLD
FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH WITH COOLER AND DRIER AIR TONIGHT AND
SUNDAY. VFR EXPECTED TONIGHT AND SUNDAY.
