642 AM CDT SAT JUN 12 2010

...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

.DISCUSSION...
/400 AM CDT SAT JUN 12 2010/
HIGH PLAINS CONVECTION HAS ONCE AGAIN CONGEALED INTO A WELL
DEVELOPED MCS ACROSS CNTRL/ERN NEBRASKA...WITH REGIONAL RADAR
IMAGERY ALREADY INDICATING MCV GENERATION WITHIN THE COLDER IR CLOUD
TOPS. WARM ADVECTION-TYPE WING OF ELEVATED CONVECTION HAS RAPIDLY
BLOSSOMED DOWNSTREAM ACROSS IOWA ALONG AND NORTH OF THE H7 +11C
ISOTHERM AND PRIMARY SYNOPTIC BOUNDARY...WHILE FURTHER WEST
CONVECTIVE GENERATED OUTFLOW ACROSS NRN KANSAS HAS BECOME THE FOCUS
FOR ADDITIONAL LIFT ON THE NOSE OF A VERY MOIST (+20C DEWPOINT AT
H8) LLJ JET AXIS. MEANWHILE...WV IMAGERY INDICATES A SEPARATE WAVE
OVER THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY...BEGINNING TO LIFT NORTH INTO THE MORE
MERIDIONAL FLOW THROUGH THE SRN/CNTRL PLAINS. CANNOT SAY ANY
OPERATIONAL OR ALTERNATIVE HI RES MODEL IS PERFORMING PARTICULARLY
WELL WITH ANYTHING THAT HAS EVOLVED OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS. HAVE
SUMMARILY DISMISSED RECENT NAM SOLUTIONS...WHICH HAVE SHOWN SEVERAL
EGREGIOUS ERRORS WITHIN THE FIRST 3-6 HOURS. WHILE GFS SOLUTIONS
HAVE PICKED UP ON SOME SALIENT FEATURES...SIGNIFICANT TIMING AND
POSITION ERRORS LEAD TO LOWER CONFIDENCE. WILL CONTINUE TO HEDGE
TOWARDS HIGH RESOLUTION 4KM ARW AND NMM CORES...THOUGH QUESTIONABLE
INITIALIZATION DATA MUST BE CONSIDERED AS A LIMITING CONFIDENCE
MEASURE.

EXPECTING THE COMBINATION OF THE DUAL NEBRASKA CONVECTIVE SYSTEMS TO
FORCE AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY/SHALLOW GRAVITY WAVES SOUTHEAST INTO NERN
KANSAS/NRN MISSOURI THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS. SIMILAR TO YESTERDAY
MORNING...ENHANCED LIFT OVER THIS BOUNDARY ORIENTED NEARLY
PERPENDICULAR TO THE LLJ AXIS COULD INVIGORATE SCT SMALL TSTMS
NEAR/AHEAD OF THE SURGING LINE SEGMENT PROPAGATING ALONG THE
KANSAS/NEBRASKA BORDER. HIGH RES MODELS INDICATE THIS MORE ENHANCED
BOUNDARY STALLING THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA TODAY...AND WHILE THERE
MAY BE A PERIOD OF SUBSIDENCE DURING THE LATE MORNING/EARLY
AFTERNOON HOURS...ANTICIPATE MUCH OF THE AREA WILL BECOME
CHARACTERIZED BY HIGH INSTABILITY AND REDUCED INHIBITION BY THE MID
AFTERNOON. MODEL OBJECTIVE ANALYSIS INDICATES SLIGHTLY COOLER
CAPPING INVERSION CURRENTLY OVER THE AREA...AND COMBINED WITH THE
AFOREMENTIONED APPROACHING SUBTROPICAL TEXAS WAVE (EXTENSIVE ACCAS
FIELD OVER OKLAHOMA AND ARKANSAS ALREADY INDICATIVE OF COOLER MOIST
POCKET ALOFT)...SHOULD SEE BETTER CHANCES FOR DEEP ROBUST FOCUSED
ALONG THE BOUNDARY REMNANTS. DEEP LAYER SHEAR STILL REMAINS SOMEWHAT
MARGINAL FOR WIDESPREAD ORGANIZED SVR WX...HOWEVER GIVEN THE HIGHER
INSTABILITY MEASURES...A FEW PULSE OR MULTICELL SVR STORMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE.

OTHERWISE...NEXT SERIES OF SHORTWAVES EJECTING FROM THE PARENT
DESERT SW TROUGH WILL INTERACT WITH VERY MOIST UPSLOPE FLOW ACROSS
THE CNTRL/SRN HIGH PLAINS LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. WITH THE
EFFECTIVE LOW LEVEL BOUNDARY SINKING FURTHER SOUTH THAN IN PREVIOUS
DAYS...CONVECTION SHOULD INITIATE CLOSER TO FAR SE COLORADO/SW
KANSAS...EVENTUALLY CONSOLIDATING INTO ANOTHER MCS SOMEWHERE OVER
CNTRL KANSAS. THIS ENTIRE PROCESS SHOULD REPEAT ONCE AGAIN SUNDAY
EVENING INTO MONDAY MORNING. WITH LOWER CONFIDENCE ON EXACT
PLACEMENT AND TIMING OF SAID SYSTEM(S)...HAVE ONLY ADVERTISED HIGHER
END CHANCE/LOWER END LIKELY POPS THROUGH THIS TIME PERIOD (FAVORING
THE EARLY MORNING HOURS FOR MOST EXTENSIVE COVERAGE). FEELING IS
CURRENT 00Z GFS QPF PLACEMENT IS SOMEWHAT TOO FAR NORTH VERSUS
CONCEPTUALLY WHAT MAY BE EXPECTED. WILL HOLD OFF ON ANY WATCH
STATEMENTS FOR THE TIME BEING...BUT CERTAINLY THE OVERALL PATTERN
COINCIDENT WITH A LARGE RESERVOIR OF PWATS AOA 1.75 INCHES SCREAMS
LARGE FLOODING POTENTIAL. WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT THIS THREAT IN
THE LOCAL HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

PRECIPITATION MAY LINGER THROUGH THE SOUTHERN ZONES THROUGH MONDAY
AFTERNOON...THOUGH IN REALITY THE EFFECTIVE BAROCLINIC ZONE MAY HAVE
BENN PUSHED FURTHER SOUTH BY THIS TIME THROUGH MESOSCALE PROCESSES.
STILL BELIEVE OPERATIONAL GFS SOLUTION IS TOO DEEP WITH ENERGY
ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST NEXT WEEK...THOUGH EFFECT ON THE OVERALL
FORECAST APPEARS QUITE MINIMAL...AND A PERIOD OF DRIER WEATHER AND
FAR LESS HUMID NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES CAN BE EXPECTED.

.AVIATION...

SCATTERED ELEVATED STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER WEST CENTRAL MISSOURI
IN WARM ADVECTION ZONE. IN ADDITION THUNDERSTORM COMPLEXES OVER
NEBRASKA AND NORTHERN KANSAS WILL MOVE EAST AND WEAKEN THROUGH THE
MORNING. HOWEVER DO EXPECT ACTIVITY TO MOVE ACROSS KSTJ/KMCI AND
POSSIBLY KMKC THIS MORNING AS WEAKENING LLJ LIFTS OVER THE LINGERING
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY. THIS OUTFLOW BOUNDARY MAY ALSO BE THE FOCUS FOR
SCATTERED TSRA THIS AFTERNOON. FOR THIS AFTERNOON WILL INCLUDE CB
MENTION ALONE. NEXT OVERNIGHT THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX IS EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP OVER WESTERN KANSAS AND MOVE EAST TOWARD THE TERMINALS. WITH
THIS ONE EXPECTED TO BE FARTHER SOUTH...WILL INTRODUCE TEMPO TSRA IN
ALL AREA TAFS AT THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. WILL NOT GO
PREVAILING WITH SOME UNCERTAINTY IN TIMING/TRACK.

557 AM CDT SAT JUN 12 2010

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR NORTHWEST...NORTH CENTRAL AND
WEST CENTRAL MISSOURI...AS WELL AS EXTREME EASTERN KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE INTO NORTHEAST KANSAS AND NORTHERN MISSOURI
THIS MORNING ON THE SOUTHERN FLANK OF A LARGER COMPLEX OF STORMS TO
THE NORTH AND WEST. SEVERE WEATHER IS NOT ANTICIPATED...THOUGH GUSTY
WINDS MAY BE EXPECTED WITH THE PASSAGE OF THESE STORMS...BEFORE THE
ENTIRE COMPLEX DECAYS LATER IN THE MORNING.

TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO QUICKLY RISE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON...WITH VERY HUMID CONDITIONS REMAINING ACROSS THE REGION.
HEAT INDEX VALUES MAY APPROACH OR BRIEFLY TOUCH 100 DEGREES OVER MUCH
OF THE OUTLOOK AREA.

ADDITIONAL STORMS MAY FORM LATER THIS AFTERNOON ALONG AND NEAR THE
BOUNDARY LEFT FROM THE MORNING ACTIVITY. ANY OF THESE STORMS COULD
LOCALLY PRODUCE HAIL AND WINDS NEAR SEVERE LEVELS...THOUGH THE THREAT
FOR WIDESPREAD ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER IS LOW.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY

THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK...A SLOW MOVING FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL SETTLE
SOUTH THROUGH MISSOURI...SERVING AS THE FOCUS FOR SEVERAL ROUNDS OF
THUNDERSTORMS. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS MAY BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY
STRONGER STORMS. HOWEVER...THE PRIMARY CONCERN WILL BE FOR VERY HEAVY
RAINFALL AND THE THREAT OF FLASH FLOODING AND RENEWED OR AGGRAVATED
RIVER FLOODING. CONDITIONS APPEAR FAVORABLE FOR SEVERAL INCHES OF
RAINFALL ACROSS THE REGION...ESPECIALLY DURING THE SUNDAY INTO MONDAY
TIME PERIOD...WITH EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS POSSIBLE WHERE REPEATED
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT OCCURS.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED AT TIMES ACROSS PARTS OF THE
OUTLOOK AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND.
