Area forecast discussion, May 15, 5:01 PM CDT, 20 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
501 PM CDT FRI MAY 15 2009

.DISCUSSION...

OUTFLOW BOUNDARY CONTINUES TO SAG SOUTH AS A COLD POOL IS
OVERWHELMING THE AMBIENT SHEAR. BRISK...MOIST AND UNSTABLE SSW LOW
LEVEL FLOW CONTINUED TO FEED STRONG TO SVR CONVECTION JUST NORTH OF
THE BOUNDARY. COPIOUS MOIST INFLUX HAS PRODUCED VERY HEAVY RAINFALL
IN THIS BAND OF CONVECTION LATE THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE CONVECTION
SLOWLY DEVELOPING SOUTH AS THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY SAGS SOUTH. THIS
TREND WILL CONTINUE THIS EVENING. A LOW TORNADIC THREAT WILL
CONTINUE ALONG THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY AS THE LOW LEVEL SHEAR IS LOCALLY
ENHANCED. OUTSIDE OF THE TORNADIC THREAT ALONG THE BOUNDARY...MODEST
SFC-6KM SHEAR AND MDT-STG INSTABILITY WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE THE
THREAT OF STG TO SVR CONVECTION.

A SFC WAVE HAS FORMED ON THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY JUST SW OF TOP. THIS
WAVE WILL SHIFT ESE AS A SHORTWAVE MOVES EAST FM WRN KS. THE PASAGE
OF THIS SFC WAVE WILL END THE THREAT OF SIGNIFICANT CONVECTION. THE
COLD FRONT ENTERING NW MO WAS ENTERING A STABLE ENVIRONMENT WITH ONLY
WEAK CONVECTION EXPECTED ALONG THE BOUNDARY. IT IS LIKELY THAT THIS
BOUNDARY WILL ACCELERATE THE SFC WAVE MVMNT. THE THREAT OF CONVECTION
WILL END BY AROUND MIDNIGHT WITH COOLER AND DRIER AIR ADVECTING SE.

DUE TO THE SLOW SOUTHWARD DEVELOPMENT OF CONVECTION...WILL HOLD
CURRENT FLASH FLOOD WATCHES.

DRY AND PLEASANT CONDITIONS IS EXPECTED THROUGH THE WEEKEND AS A COOL
SFC RIDGE BUILDS INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS.

DB

MEDIUM RANGE

MODELS ALL SIMILAR IN BUILDING AN UPPER RIDGE INTO MISSOURI IN
ADVANCE OF AN UPPER TROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE NRN PLAINS AND GREAT
LAKES TUES AND WED. INCREASING HEIGHTS WILL PROVIDE FOR GRADUALLY
WARMER TEMPERATURES. A WEAK FRONT WILL DRIFT INTO NRN MO TUESDAY
NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY AS THE TROUGH PASSES TO THE NORTH. WILL KEEP POPS
LOW AT THIS TIME AS CONVERGENCE WILL BE WEAK WITH AN UPPER RIDGE IN
PLACE.

DB

&&

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 18Z TAFS...CONVECTIVE THREAT WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
02Z...UNTIL A CDFNT MOVES THROUGH BTWN 00Z-02Z. CONVECTION IS BEING
GENERATED BY WARM AND MOIST AIR FLOW OVER AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY NR
KMKC. THE CONVECTION WILL BE MAINLY CONFINED TO THE KC METRO
TERMINALS THIS AFTN AS THE BOUNDARY WILL BECOME STATIONARY. THE KSTJ
CONVECTION WILL BE WEAKER AND CONSIDERABLY MORE SCT. OTHERWISE...A
BRIEF PERIOD OF MVFR CIGS ARE PSBL THIS EVENING AFT FROPA WITH A FEW
SHOWERS ALSO PSBL. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE NW EARLY THIS EVENING WITH
WINDS INCREASING AFT 03Z.
