AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
635 PM CDT THU APR 9 2009

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...

.UPDATE...

WARM FRONT EXTENDS FROM JUST NORTH OF PARSONS KS TO JUST SOUTH OF
JOPLIN TO THE NEAR FLIPPIN AR. SOME STORMS HAVE STARTED TO DEVELOP
ALONG AND NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT IN RESPONSE TO COOLING MIDLEVELS
WITH THE APPROACH OF THE UPPER LOW. STORMS OVER SOUTHEAST
KANSAS...AT LEAST IN BOURBON COUNTY/FT SCOTT AREA SHOULD BE
SOMEWHAT ELEVATED NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT.

FARTHER SOUTH OVER FAR NORTHEAST OK/KS/MO BORDER REGION...STORMS ARE
MORE SFC BASED IN THE WARM SECTOR WITH MLCAPES OFF THE RUC
1000-1200 J/KG ALONG THE DRYLINE. AREA OF MAIN CONCERN WILL
CONTINUE TO BE THE NARROW CORRIDOR ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE WARM
FRONT WHERE THE DRY LINE IS INTERSECTING AND CATCHING UP TO IT.
EVEN IN THE WARM SECTOR AHEAD OF THE DRY LINE OVER A LARGE SECTION
OF OK/AR...THE SFC FLOW WILL BE BACKED...AND RUC 0-1KM HELICITY IS
400-500 M2/S2 IN THAT AREA...EVEN UP INTO SW MO. THAT AREA WILL
NEED TO BE WATCHED FOR STORM ROTATION...ESPECIALLY WHERE STORMS
BEGIN TO CROSS THE WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY OVER SOUTHWEST PORTIONS
OF THE CWFA.

EVOLUTION OF THIS SYSTEM IS EXPECTED IS EXPECTED TO BE MORE LINEAR
AS IT HEAD DEEPER INTO THE OZARKS. DSA

.DISCUSSION...

CURRENTLY...SURFACE LOW SITUATED OVER NORTH CENTRAL
OKLAHOMA...NEAR ENID. WARM FRONT STILL TO OUR SOUTH...LYING ACROSS
NORTHERN ARKANSAS NEAR THE STATE LINE. BEHIND THIS
FRONT...DEW POINTS IN THE MID AND UPPER 50S RESIDE. WHILE NORTH OF
THE FRONT OVER THE OZARKS...DEW POINTS REMAIN IN THE REMAIN IN THE
LOW TO MID 40S. COLD FRONT EXTENDS FROM LOW FROM PNC...TO JUST
WEST OF OKC...BACK INTO CENTRAL TEXAS. BETWEEN THE TWO FRONT...A
GULF SURGE IN DEW POINTS FROM MID 60S IN NORTHERN TEXAS...TO LOW
60S IN EASTERN OKLAHOMA...TO LOW 50S IN SOUTHEAST KANSAS EXISTS.
PROFILER WINDS AT 850 AND 925MBS HAVE REALLY BEGUN TO INCREASE
OVER EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND HAVE SHIFTED TO THE SOUTHWEST AT
30-40KTS. SHOULD START TO SEE THESE HIGHER DEW POINTS ADVECT INTO
SOUTHWEST MISSOURI BY LATE AFTERNOON AS THE WARM FRONT FINALLY
MAKES ITS WAY INTO SOUTHERN MISSOURI. LASTLY...BACK EDGE OF UPPER
CLOUDINESS JUST NOW MAKING ITS WAY ACROSS THE WESTERN MISSOURI
STATE LINE. BEHIND THESE CLOUDS...TEMPERATURES HAVE WARMED INTO
THE LOW 70S ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS...TO THE UPPER 70S ACROSS
SOUTHEAST OKLAHOMA. WE SHOULD SEE TEMPERATURES INCREASING ACROSS
WESTERN MISSOURI THIS AFTERNOON AS THE CLEARING LINE MOVES
EAST. ALL THESE FACTORS CONTINUE TO POINT TOWARDS SEVERE WEATHER
LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

LOOKS LIKE MOST FAVORABLE SPOT FOR SEVERE WEATHER LATE THIS
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING CONTINUES TO BE EXTREME SOUTHEAST
KANSAS AND SOUTHERN MISSOURI...JUST AHEAD OF THE SURFACE LOW THAT
CONTINUES TO TRACK ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI. WRF CAPES ALONG THE
MISSOURI/ARKANSAS LINE FORECAST NEAR 800 TO 900 J/KG. BY LATE THIS
EVENING...SURFACE LOW FORECAST TO BE CENTERED NEAR
CASSVILLE...WITH WARM FRONT EXTENDING NORTHEAST TO VICHY. LOOKS
LIKE PREDOMINANT RAINFALL WILL BE ALONG THE WARM FRONT...WITH WRAP
AROUND MOISTURE IN NORTHERLY FLOW ACROSS OUR WESTERN COUNTIES.
SEVERE THREAT WOULD BE OUT AHEAD OF THIS LOW FOR OUR SOUTHWEST
COUNTIES AT THAT TIME.

BY FRIDAY MORNING...SURFACE LOW FORECAST NEAR THE BOOT HEEL AREA
AND SEVERE THREAT WOULD BE OVER FOR OUR CWA. MAY STILL SEE SOME
LIGHT RAIN IN THE WRAP AROUND MOISTURE FRIDAY MORNING. ALL RAIN
LOOKS TO COME TO AN END BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON AS SURFACE HIGH MOVES
SOUTH INTO IOWA.

NEXT CHANCE FOR RAIN LOOKS TO BE SUNDAY EVENING INTO MONDAY AS
ANOTHER STRONG SURFACE LOW MOVES INTO CENTRAL OKLAHOMA...THEN INTO
CENTRAL ARKANSAS EARLY MONDAY MORNING. GOOD GULF MOISTURE RETURN WITH
THIS SYSTEM AND MODELS FORECASTING A FAIRLY DECENT SOAKING RAIN
EVENT WITH THIS SYSTEM. RAINFALL AMOUNTS UP TO AN INCH AND A HALF
COULD FALL ACROSS THE CWA WITH THIS SYSTEM AS IT TRACKS
ACROSS THE AREA. BUT SEVERE WEATHER SHOULD REMAIN EAST AND SOUTH
OF THE SURFACE LOW IN SOUTHERN ARKANSAS...INTO THE GULF STATES.

ACTIVE PATTERN CONTINUES THROUGH NEXT WEEK WITH ANOTHER FRONT
MOVES INTO THE AREA WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON/EVENING.

&&

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 18Z KSGF/KJLN TAFS...LOOKING FOR CEILINGS TO LOWER DURING
THE AFTERNOON WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AS LOW LEVEL MOISTURE
INCREASES AHEAD OF STORM SYSTEM. MAIN BAND OF CONVECTION WILL
LIKELY HOLD OFF UNTIL AFTER 23Z BUT EXPECTING HEAVY RAIN WITH
CEILINGS DROPPING INTO MVFR CATEGORY. IFR EXPECTED BEHIND THE LOW
AFTER 06Z TONIGHT WITH WINDS SWITCHING TO THE NORTHWEST.
