AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
107 PM CDT FRI JUN 19 2009

.DISCUSSION...
/106 PM CDT FRI JUN 19 2009/

ACTIVE AFTERNOON AND EVENING AHEAD AS SHORTWAVE APPROACHES A VERY
MOIST UNSTABLE AND UNCAPPED ATMOSPHERE. THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE
TO DEVELOP...INITIALLY WE BELIEVE SUPERCELLS WILL BE THE STORM MODE.
BUT GIVEN UNIDIRECTIONAL SHEAR PROFILES WE SHOULD SEE THE CELLS
MERGE INTO LINEAR BOWING COMPLEXES WHICH WILL AFFECT NORTHERN
MISSOURI AND WEST CENTRAL ILLINOIS. FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO SAG
SOUTH DURING THE EVENING WITH FURTHER DEVELOPMENT POSSIBLE TO THE
INTERSTATE 70 CORRIDOR. NOT SURE ABOUT THE SEVERITY OR COVERAGE OF
THIS CONVECTION GIVEN THE WEAK CONVERGENCE AND LACK OF UPPER AIR
SUPPORT IN WAKE OF THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE. IN ANY CASE...WEAK
WESTERLY WARM ADVECTION SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO KEEP THUNDERSTORMS GOING
OVERNIGHT ON THE WESTERN FLANK OF THE OUTFLOW/EFFECTIVE FRONT AS IT
STALLS JUST SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 70.

PRIMARY SEVERE THREAT WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS GIVEN THE BOWING
STRUCTURES THAT ARE EXPECTED AFTER THE INITIAL SUPERCELL MODE. WILL
ALSO HAVE TO KEEP A WATCHFUL EYE ON HEAVY RAINFALL WITH ANY ECHO
TRAINING AS PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES REMAIN NEAR 2 INCHES.

SHOULD SEE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP AGAIN ON SATURDAY
...ESPECIALLY DURING THE AFTERNOON AS FRONT REMAINS QUASI-STATIONARY
OVER THE REGION AND SERVES AS THE FOCUS FOR DIURNAL DEVELOPMENT. BY
SATURDAY NIGHT THE FRONT WILL BEGIN TO LIFT BACK NORTH AS A WARM
FRONT AND THE SUMMER HEAT WILL RETURN.

AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF HEAT AND HUMIDITY IS EXPECTED SUNDAY THROUGH
THURSDAY AS THE UPPER RIDGE BUILDS BACK ACROSS THE REGION. ST. LOUIS
METRO WILL LIKELY SEE TEMPERATURES IN THE MID TO UPPER 90S THROUGH
THE PERIOD WITH AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HEAT INDICES BETWEEN 105
AND 110 DEGREES. OTHER THAN VERY ISOLATED AFTERNOON CONVECTION...THE
UPPER RIDGE SHOULD EFFECTIVELY CAP THE ATMOSPHERE AND A DRY FORECAST.

SOME INDICATION IN MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE THAT A TROF WILL TRY TO DIG
INTO THE EASTERN SIDE OF THE RIDGE LATE NEXT WEEK...BUT WE WILL SEE.

.AVIATION...
/1213 PM CDT FRI JUN 19 2009/
FOR THE 18Z TAFS...
VFR CONDITIONS WITH WSW WINDS AND SCT DIURNAL CU WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH LATE AFTN. THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO FORM AHEAD OF AN
APPROACHING COLD FRONT...REACHING UIN AROUND 23Z AND STL AROUND
04Z. WINDS WILL VEER SLIGHTLY BEHIND THE FRONT WITH MVFR CIGS SCATTERING
OUT AND IMPROVING TO VFR ON SAT.
