AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
811 PM CDT MON MAR 9 2009

.DISCUSSION...
/424 PM CDT MON MAR 9 2009/

MODELS ARE IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT THRU MID WEEK ON MASS FIELDS AS
EWD TRANSVERSING LONGWAVE H500 TROF OVER THE WRN CONUS TAKES A SWIPE
AT THE MID MS VALLEY BEFORE IT RETREATS INTO CANADA. TWO SHORTWAVES
OF INTEREST TO IMPACT THE AREA IN THE MEANTIME...WITH A SUBTLE WAVE
MOVING THRU TONIGHT COINCIDENT WITH A SFC WRMFNT...AND WILL ALSO BE
AT THE VANGUARD OF RICH AND DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE THAT CAN CLEARLY
BE SEEN ON WV IMAGERY FROM THE ERN PAC. THE SECOND WAVE WILL THEN BE
THE GLANCING BLOW DELIVERED ON LATE TUESDAY AND TUESDAY EVENING
COINCIDENT WITH A STRONG CDFNT AT THE LO LEVELS.

60F DEWPOINT AIR IS MASSING AT THE BORDER OF MO/AR...AND WITH
LIFTING OF WRMFNT OVER NRN AR NOW BEGINNING...THIS AIR SHOULD BE
OVERSPREADING THE FA BY DAYBREAK TUESDAY MORNING. WELL BEFORE
THEN...DEEP MOISTURE AT THE MID LEVELS AND JUST OFF THE SFC WILL
INUNDATE THE AREA...AS PWATS RISE TO 1.5 INCHES OR 300PCT OF NORMAL.
COMBO OF THIS RICH MOISTURE AND A SLOWLY NWD LIFTING WRMFNT AND
UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL DEVELOP AND FOCUS SHRA/TSRA ACROSS
MAINLY THE NRN HALF OF THE FA LATER THIS EVENING AND INTO THE
OVERNIGHT. HAVE CONTINUED THE FFA IN THE NRN FA...WHERE HIGH
RAINFALL POTENTIAL INTERSECTS WITH ALREADY MOSTLY SATURATED GROUND
FROM PREVIOUS RAINS.

THE BEST SVR POTENTIAL THRU LATE TONIGHT WILL BE ALONG THE SRN
PERIPHERY OF THIS DEVELOPING RAINFALL AREA...WHICH COULD EXTEND S OF
THE I-70 CORRIDOR.

LEFTOVER CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE THRU TUESDAY MORNING OVER THE NRN
FA...AND WHILE WE SHOULD SEE A BREAK IN THE STRONG/SVR TSRA
POTENTIAL FROM ABOUT MID MORNING TUESDAY THRU MID AFTERNOON
TUESDAY...CDFNT AND STRENGTHENING BROAD SCALE LIFT WILL IGNITE A NEW
ROUND OF TSRA BY LATE TUES AFTN AND THIS ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE THRU
LATE TUESDAY EVENING. STRONG SHEAR...STRONG BAROCLINIC ZONE NEAR
FRONT AND RICH MOISTURE WILL ALLOW A NEW ROUND OF STRONG/SEVERE
STORMS TO DEVELOP. THIS WILL THEN BE FOLLOWED BY STRONG GUSTY WINDS
BEHIND THE CDFNT...NOT QUITE AS STRONG AS WE SAW A COUPLE DAYS
AGO...BUT COMPARABLE.

A PERIOD OF QUIET WX WILL THEN FOLLOW AS LARGE COOL CANADIAN HI PRES
BUILDS IN AND DOMINATES THE REGION THRU THURSDAY.

FOR THE EXTENDED PERIOD (THURSDAY NIGHT - MONDAY)...MODELS IN A FAIR
AMOUNT OF DISAGREEMENT OVER THIS PERIOD...BUT MORE STEADY ENSEMBLES
AND BETTER VERIFYING ECMWF USED FOR GUIDANCE OVERALL. LOOK FOR WEAK
H500 RIDGE TO MOVE ACROSS THE FA ON SATURDAY...WHICH WILL ALSO
SIGNAL THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF THE INFLUENCE OF THE LARGE
CANADIAN SFC HI PRES. MID LEVEL FLOW BECOMES MORE SWLY FOR SUNDAY AS
A SHORTWAVE MOVES THRU ON MONDAY WITH A DEEP LONGWAVE TROF
DEVELOPING OVER THE CNTRL CONUS FOR EARLY TO MIDDLE NEXT WEEK. KEPT
THE FORECAST DRY FOR THE MOST PART...BUT PLACED TOKEN 20PCT POPS IN
FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY AS PATTERN SHIFTS TO A WETTER ONE FOR A BRIEF
PERIOD. TEMPS WILL BEGIN THE PERIOD BELOW NORMAL...BUT ARE EXPECTED
TO RECOVER TO SEASONAL LEVELS DURING THE WEEKEND.
