AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
359 PM CDT SAT APR 24 2010

.DISCUSSION...

SHORT RANGE (TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)...

THE SEVERE POTENTIAL FOR THE REST OF THE DAY AND OVERNIGHT
PERIODS...EARLIER ACTIVITY ACROSS FAR NORTHWEST MISSOURI IS
CURRENTLY RAMPING DOWN. EARLY AFTERNOON ACTIVITY...WITH SMALL
NON-SUPERCELL TORNADOES IN FAR NORTHWEST MISSOURI...WAS TIED TO A
REGION OF MODEST INSTABILITY AND A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY. AS THESE
SMALL THUNDERSTORMS MOVED ACROSS THE WEAKLY SHEARED SURFACE BOUNDARY
IN NORTHWEST MISSOURI...THE STORMS INGESTED AND STRETCHED THE
CIRCULATIONS ALONG THE BOUNDARY JUST ENOUGH TO PRODUCE NUMEROUS
FUNNEL CLOUD REPORTS...AND SOME BRIEF TORNADO TOUCH DOWNS. THIS
ACTIVITY IS SLOWLY RAMPING DOWN AS A NEWLY FORMED SURFACE LOW ACROSS
EAST CENTRAL MISSOURI IS TAKING THE FOCUS OF SEVERE STORM ACTIVITY
AND SHIFTING IT EAST OF OUR FORECAST AREA. A FEW WEAK THUNDERSTORMS
MAY STILL BE ABLE TO PRODUCE SOME FUNNEL CLOUDS THROUGH THE REST OF
THE AFTERNOON...BUT SIGNIFICANT SEVERE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS NOT
EXPECTED. MUCH OF THE FOCUS FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL THEN SHIFT EAST
AS THE SUN SETS...LEAVING BEST INSTABILITY CLOSER TO THE CENTER OF
THE UPPER LEVEL LOW OVERNIGHT.

FOR TONIGHT...THE CURRENT STORM SYSTEM CHURNING ITS WAY THROUGH THE
PLAINS STATES WILL KEEP THE ENTIRE FORECAST REGION UNDER THE THREAT
OF RAIN STORMS INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. ABUNDANT AMOUNTS OF
MOISTURE HAVE WRAPPED INTO THE UPPER LEVEL CIRCULATION...PROVIDING
AMPLE MOISTURE FOR STORMS TO WORK WITH OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
SHORTWAVE...PIVOTING FROM TEXAS NORTHEAST INTO SOUTHERN MISSOURI
UNDER THE CENTRAL PLAINS CUTOFF LOW...HAS FUELED NEARLY CONTINUOUS
RAIN AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ACROSS OUR FORECAST REGION TODAY. AS
THE SHORTWAVE PIVOTS INTO EASTERN IOWA THIS EVENING...EXPECTATIONS
ARE THAT THE CENTROID OF THE UPPER LEVEL CIRCULATION WILL SHIFT EAST
QUICKLY...ULTIMATELY LIMITING THE THREAT FOR CONTINUED PRECIPITATION
ACROSS THE KANSAS/MISSOURI BORDER REGION THIS EVENING. BEST
POTENTIAL FOR MORE RAIN OVERNIGHT AND INTO SUNDAY WILL EXISTS ACROSS
NORTH CENTRAL AND NORTHEAST MISSOURI AS THIS ENTIRE SYSTEM TAKES ON
A STRUCTURE SIMILAR TO A WINTER EVENT WITH A TROWAL ALONG THE IOWA
BORDER. AS A RESULT...STILL EXPECT TO SEE SOME SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL
ACCUMULATIONS ACROSS AREAS FROM NORTHEAST MISSOURI SOUTH THROUGH
CENTRAL MISSOURI THIS EVENING. THEREFORE...HAVE KEPT A FLOOD WATCH
GOING FOR AREAS EAST OF HIGHWAY 65...ROUGHLY FROM UNIONVILLE SOUTH
THROUGH SEDALIA...TILL 1 AM SUNDAY MORNING.

FOR THE DAYLIGHT HOURS OF SUNDAY...WRAP AROUND ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED
TO STILL PLAGUE NORTHEAST MISSOURI THROUGH THE DAY SUNDAY
MORNING....BUT MOST OF THE FOCUS FOR MORE RAIN WILL BE TO THE EAST
OF OUR FORECAST AREA BY THE AFTERNOON HOURS.

CUTTER

MEDIUM RANGE (MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)...

FORECAST FOR THE WORK WEEK INDICATES THAT WE SHOULD BEGIN THE WEEK A
LITTLE WET AND COOL...BEFORE WARMING UP INTO SOME PLEASANT SPRING
WEATHER MID-WEEK...AHEAD OF ANOTHER SYSTEM WHICH WILL PUSH THROUGH
DURING THE END OF THE WORK WEEK BRINGING THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE
THUNDERSTORMS.

FOR THE BEGINNING OF THE WORK WEEK...SHORT TO MID RANGE MODELS HAVE
ALL GLOBED ONTO A SHORTWAVE...THAT IS CURRENTLY MAKING LANDFALL
ACROSS BRITISH COLUMBIA...AS DROPPING INTO THE NORTHWEST FLOW THAT
IS GOING TO PREVAIL ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS IN THE WAKE OF TODAY
CUTOFF LOW. EXPECTED TACK OF THE SHORTWAVE MONDAY WILL TAKE IT RIGHT
ACROSS MISSOURI...WITH THE GFS ADVERTISING THE FASTEST SOLUTION.
PREFERENCE IS FOR THE CONSENSUS AMONG THE OTHER MODELS WHICH ARE
RUNNING 6 TO 12 HOURS SLOWER. TIMING ISSUES ASIDE...CHANCE POPS LOOK
GOOD FOR THE IOWA BORDER REGION MONDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT.

FOR THE MIDDLE OF THE WORK WEEK...SHORTWAVE RIDGE WILL SLIDE ACROSS
THE CENTER OF THE CONUS. THIS RIDGE WILL ESTABLISH ITSELF IN THE
WAKE OF THIS WEEKENDS WEATHER ACROSS THE FAR WESTERN CONUS
SUNDAY...AND BUSY ITSELF MOVING ACROSS THE CENTER OF THE NATION
WEDNESDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL MOVE BACK ABOVE NORMAL AS SYNOPTIC
LEVEL HEIGHT GAINS SHIFT ACROSS THE REGION WEDNESDAY...WITH THE
ASSISTANCE OF SURFACE WINDS RETURNING TO THE SOUTH.

FOR LATE IN THE WORK WEEK...A POTENT JET WILL DIVE INTO THE NEGATIVE
HEIGHT ANOMALIES ACROSS THE WESTERN CONUS MID WORK WEEK. MID RANGE
MODELS FOCUS ON THIS OCCURRENCE AS CARVING OUT ANOTHER LARGE TROUGH
ACROSS THE WESTERN HALF OF THE CONUS BY LATE IN THE WORK WEEK. ALL
MID-RANGE MODELS ADVERTISE THIS...THOUGH THE DETAILS VERY. SURFACE
FEATURES DETAILS ARE SPREAD ACROSS A WIDE MARGIN AS THE DIFFERENT
MODELS ALL HANDLE THE SURFACE COLD FRONT...ASSOCIATED WITH THIS
FEATURE...A BIT DIFFERENTLY. GFS IS BY FAR THE FASTEST...ZIPPING THE
FRONT THROUGH THE CWA BY 12Z FRIDAY...WHILE THE ECMWF IS ABOUT  TO
24 HOURS SLOWER. GEM AND UKMET ADVERTISE A MORE ECMWF LIKE
SOLUTIONS. HAVE LEANED THE LATE WORK WEEK FORECAST TOWARDS THE
MAJORITY CONSENSUS. HAVE BROUGHT CHANCE POPS INTO FAR NORTHWEST
MISSOURI AS EARLY AS THURSDAY AFTERNOON...BUT BELIEVE THE TIMING FOR
MUCH OF THE REGION TO SEE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL BE THURSDAY
NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY. HAVE BROAD BRUSHED THESE POPS THROUGH FRIDAY
EVENING...AND EVEN KEPT A SILENT SLIGHT CHANCE POP THROUGH
SATURDAY...AS A HEDGE TOWARDS THE TIMING ISSUES WHICH ABOUND WITH
THE MID-RANGE MODELS.

CUTTER

&&

.AVIATION...
FOR THE 18Z TAFS...BROAD AREA OF SHOWERS WITH THE POTENTIAL OF SOME
EMBEDDED THUNDER WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD NORTH AS THE UPPER LOW
REDEVELOPS OVER SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI AS A STRONG PV ANOMALY
ROTATES ACROSS NORTHWEST ARKANSAS TOWARD SOUTHEAST MISSOURI AT THIS
TIME. THIS PRECIPITATION WILL CONTINUE TO WRAP AROUND THIS LOW AS IT
DEEPENS ACROSS EAST CENTRAL MISSOURI BY 00Z. THUS...CAN EXPECT AN
EXTENDED PERIOD OF RAIN THIS AFTERNOON AND INTO EARLY EVENING. THE
TOUGHER PART OF THE FORECAST IS WINDS AND CIGS. DEPENDING ON HOW
THIS SURFACE LOW DEVELOPS...WOULD EXPECT THE WINDS AT THE TERMINALS
TO DO A GRADUAL SWING TO NORTHEAST...NORTHWEST AND WEST. WOULD
EXPECT CIGS TO CONTINUE TO LOWER THIS AFTERNOON AS THE RAIN
SATURATES THE LOWER LEVELS. OVERNIGHT...SHOULD SEE AN IFR DECK OF
STRATUS ON THE BACK SIDE OF THIS SYSTEM ROTATE ACROSS THE TERMINALS.

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

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

FOR THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON...THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTHWEST
MISSOURI WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE BRIEF FUNNEL
CLOUDS OR TORNADIC TOUCHDOWNS...MAINLY IN AN AREA FROM WESTBORO TO
MARYVILLE TO ALBANY TO BETHANY AND SPICKARD MISSOURI.

OTHER THUNDERSTORMS ROTATING AROUND THE LOW THAT IS MOVING INTO SOUTH
CENTRAL MISSOURI...MAY ROTATE NORTHWEST INTO AREAS FROM MOBERLY TO
MACON AND EVENTUALLY THE KIRKSVILLE AREA. ALTHOUGH THE ATMOSPHERE IS
NOT AS FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE WEATHER DUE TO LESS INSTABILITY...WITH
THE WIND SHEAR AROUND THIS LOW...THESE STORMS WILL ALSO NEED TO BE
MONITORED FOR BRIEF SPIN UPS.

THE THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY SHOULD DIMINISH WITH THE LOSS OF THE
AFTERNOON HEATING. HOWEVER...THE RAIN IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE INTO
THE EVENING HOURS. THIS RAIN OCCURRING ON TOP OF ALREADY WET
GROUND...MAY LEAD TO ADDITIONAL FLOODING CONCERNS...ESPECIALLY IN
AREAS OF CENTRAL MISSOURI TO THE EAST OF HIGHWAY 65.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY

WHILE THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY IN TIMING AND SEVERE POTENTIAL...THERE
IS A CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY.
