AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED.
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1104 AM CDT FRI JUN 12 2009

...CONVECTIVE MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...

A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX CONTINUES TO TRACK ACROSS NORTHEAST
OKLAHOMA...MOVING INTO NORTHWEST ARKANSAS WITHIN THE NEXT HOUR.
THIS LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCED 85 MPH WINDS IN ROGERS COUNTY
OKLAHOMA...WHICH WAS MEASURED BY AN OKLAHOMA MESONET OBSERVATION.

IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE COMPLEX HAS PEALED SOUTHEAST.  THE DAMAGING
WINDS/SEVERE WEATHER WILL LIKELY MISS SOUTHERN MISSOURI TO THE
SOUTH...AND CONTINUE TRACKING ALONG THE SURFACE FRONT.

WILL MONITOR MCDONALD...NEWTON...AND BARRY COUNTIES FOR HEAVY RAIN
POTENTIAL.

CRAMER

.DISCUSSION...

THE MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGES/HIGHLIGHTS WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE
ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN OVER THE REGION...WITH THUNDERSTORM CHANCES
THROUGH THE WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

CURRENTLY...AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE IS PUSHING THROUGH THE
CENTRAL PLAINS...WITH AN AREA OF CONVECTION ACROSS CENTRAL KANSAS
AHEAD OF THIS DISTURBANCE. THIS DISTURBANCE AND ASSOCIATED
THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH EAST TOWARDS THE AREA
THIS MORNING. IT WILL LIKELY PUSH INTO THE WESTERN CWA DURING THE
MID TO LATE MORNING HOURS AND PUSH EAST THROUGH THE AREA DURING
THE AFTERNOON HOURS. BASED ON ITS CURRENT TRACK...THE SOUTHERN TWO
THIRDS OF THE CWA WILL HAVE THE BETTER CHANCES OF SEEING THIS
ACTIVITY. INSTABILITY IS QUITE LOW ACROSS THE AREA CURRENTLY...BUT
ONCE THE HEATING OF THE DAY KICKS IN INSTABILITY WILL INCREASE
ACROSS THE AREA. THE GREATEST INSTABILITY SHOULD DEVELOP CLOSER TO
THE ARKANSAS MISSOURI BORDER. WITH THE INCREASED INSTABILITY ALONG
WITH STEEP LAPSE RATES AND STRONG DEEP LAYER SHEAR...SEVERE STORMS
WILL BE POSSIBLE AS THIS ACTIVITY PASSES THROUGH THE AREA TODAY.
THE PRIMARY HAZARDS WILL BE LARGE HAIL TO THE SIZE OF GOLF BALLS
AND DAMAGING WINDS. ISOLATED TORNADOES CANNOT BE RULED OUT...
THOUGH THIS RISK SHOULD BE MORE FOCUSED NEAR THE LOCATION OF THE
SURFACE BOUNDARY.

OVERNIGHT INTO SATURDAY AN UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE RIDGE WILL BUILD
OVER THE REGION...WHICH SHOULD KEEP THE CONVECTION TO THE NORTH
AND SOUTH OF THE AREA ON SATURDAY. THIS BREAK IN THE ACTION WILL
BE SHORT LIVED AS ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE AND MCS WILL
LIKELY PUSH INTO THE AREA LATE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING.
ELEVATED INSTABILITY SHOULD REMAIN OVER THE AREA DURING THIS TIME
SO STRONG TO SEVERE ELEVATED STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE DURING THIS
TIME...WITH LARGE HAIL THE PRIMARY HAZARD.

THE ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE AS YET ANOTHER UPPER
LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL PUSH THROUGH THE AREA LATE SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY BRINGING ADDITIONAL CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA.
IF ENOUGH INSTABILITY REMAINS ACROSS THE AREA...STRONG TO SEVERE
STORMS CANNOT BE RULED OUT WITH THIS ACTIVITY. THE ACTIVE PATTERN
WILL FINALLY COME TO AN END BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK...AS A
SUMMERTIME RIDGE BUILDS INTO THE REGION PUSHING THE STORM TRACK
TO THE NORTH.
