AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
348 PM CDT MON JUL 19 2010

.DISCUSSION...

TONIGHT:
A VERY COMPLEX SURFACE PATTERN EXISTS ACROSS THE REGION
WITH NUMEROUS BOUNDARIES TO ACCOUNT FOR AND AN EXTREMELY UNSTABLE
AIRMASS FOR ANY BOUNDARY TO WORK WITH. THE PRIMARY FOCUS FOR
THUNDERSTORMS LATER THIS AFTERNOON/THIS EVENING IS EXPECTED TO BE
ACROSS SOUTHERN IOWA/FAR NORTHERN MISSOURI. A BAND OF MID LEVEL
CLOUDS HAS LIMITED THE AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY IN THIS AREA BUT AS THIS
CLOUD AREA MOVES TO THE EAST DESTABILIZATION WILL LEAD TO EXTREME
INSTABILITY ON THE ORDER OF 3000 TO 4000 J/KG. THIS INSTABILITY WILL
OCCUR IN A REGION OF STRONGER UPPER LEVEL WINDS AND AS A RESULT
SHEAR WILL BE ENOUGH THAT SHOULD STORMS DEVELOP THEY WILL LIKELY
QUICKLY BECOME SEVERE WITH SUPERCELLS THE PRIMARY CONVECTIVE MODE
INITIALLY. THE STORMS WILL EVENTUALLY EVOLVE INTO A CONVECTIVE
COMPLEX AND TRACK TO THE EAST-SOUTHEAST ACROSS SOUTHERN IOWA/NORTHERN
MISSOURI. CONFIDENCE IS STILL SOMEWHAT LOW REGARDING THIS SCENARIO AS
THERE ARE SEVERAL NEGATIVES INCLUDING HOW RAPID A RECOVERY CAN BE
ACHIEVED.

TUESDAY:
CONTINUED THE HEAT HEADLINES AS IS THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING. THE
OUTFLOW BOUNDARY THAT PUSHED THROUGH CENTRAL MISSOURI THIS AFTERNOON
KEPT TEMPERATURES IN CHECK AND WITH THE MID LEVEL CLOUD DECK MOVING
OVER MUCH OF THE AREA THAT WAS IN THE HEAT ADVISORY MAY NOT HAVE SEEN
THE EXCESSIVE HEAT. IT APPEARS ANOTHER CONVECTIVE COMPLEX WILL MOVE
THROUGH OUR NORTHERN/EASTERN ZONES SPREADING ANOTHER OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY SOUTHWARD SIMILAR TO MONDAY. CONFIDENCE IN THIS IS STILL
FAIRLY LOW AND GIVEN THE ABUNDANT MOISTURE IN THE REGION AND VERY
WARM TEMPERATURES LIKELY FEEL THAT AT THIS TIME A CONTINUATION OF THE
HEAT HEADLINES AS IS WAS THE MOST LIKELY SCENARIO. THAT SAID...THE
METRO AREA WILL CONTINUE TO SEE AFTERNOON HEAT INDEX VALUES CLIMBING
TO AROUND 110 WITH SLIGHTLY COOLER VALUES FURTHER NORTH. THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES WILL INCREASE DURING THE DAY FOR AREAS GENERALLY NORTH OF THE
MISSOURI RIVER...WHICH THROWS ANOTHER WRINKLE INTO HOW FAR NORTH THE
HEAT WILL MAKE IT TOMORROW. GIVEN THE INSTABILITY AND SHEAR FOR
STORMS TO WORK WITH THERE IS A POSSIBILITY FOR SEVERE STORMS AS WELL.

WEDNESDAY:
THE PATTERN REMAINS SIMILAR INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. WITH
CONVECTIVE CHANCES LIKELY TO CONTINUE INTO THE AFTERNOON ALONG A SLOW
MOVING BOUNDARY. CONFIDENCE IN CARRYING THE HEAT HEADLINES INTO
WEDNESDAY IS FAIRLY LOW. WILL LET SUBSEQUENT SHIFTS ASSESS THE NEED
FOR ANY CONTINUATION. REGARDING CONVECTION...THE EXTREMELY UNSTABLE
AIRMASS WILL PERSIST WITH SHEAR SUPPORTIVE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SEVERE STORMS.

THURSDAY-MONDAY:

SIGNIFICANT LEE TROUGHING OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS IS EXPECTED TO
OCCUR ON THURSDAY...COINCIDENT WITH A 597DM RIDGE OVER THE SERN US.
THIS SHOULD EFFECTIVELY PLACE THE ENTIRE CWA WELL INTO THE WARM
SECTOR WITH MCS ACTIVITY SHIFTING WELL NORTH OF THE REGION.
THUS...CONFIDENCE IS HIGHEST ON DAY 4 OF A GENERALLY DRY/CAPPED DAY
WITH VERY HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS PREVAILING.

THEREAFTER...A NORTHERN STREAM WAVE PROGRESSING THROUGH THE UPPER
MIDWEST WILL HELP FORCE THE BELT OF WEST/NORTHWEST MID LEVEL FLOW TO
LOWER LATITUDES...DRIVING A WEAK SURFACE TROUGH TOWARD THE SOUTHEAST
AND INTO THE CWA. SHOWER/STORM CHANCES WILL INCREASE WITH THIS
FEATURE DURING THE FRIDAY THROUGH EARLY SATURDAY TIME FRAME...WITH
SOME RELIEF EXPECTED SATURDAY. HOWEVER...AN EXPECTED STALLING AND
GRADUAL NORTHWARD RETURN OF THIS BOUNDARY WILL LIKELY RESULT IN A
VERY DIRTY UPPER RIDGE WITH CHAOTIC FLOW DEVELOPING OVER THE REGION
FOR SUNDAY INTO TUESDAY. WILL FAVOR NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES IN THE
ABSENCE OF ANY HEIGHT ANOMALIES...WITH WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND
STORMS EXPECTED ALONG THE REMNANT SYNOPTIC BOUNDARY.

BOOKBINDER

&&

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 18Z TAFS...A COMPLEX SURFACE PATTERN EXISTS OVER THE REGION.
AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY WAS WASHING OUT BETWEEN MCI AND STJ WITH
STATIONARY FROM THE STJ AREA TO THE WEST WITH AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE
IN NORTHERN KANSAS. DESPITE AN EXTREMELY UNSTABLE AIRMASS WITH THE
GUST FRONT IN THE VICINITY OF THE TERMINALS...VERY WARM AIR ALOFT IS
EXPECTED TO INHIBIT CONVECTION AT MCI AND MKC. ALSO...MID LEVEL
CLOUDS ARE LEADING TO A BIT COOLER AND SLIGHTLY MORE STABLE AIRMASS
ACROSS NORTHERN KANSAS AND NORTHWEST MISSOURI WHICH WILL ALSO INHIBIT
CONVECTIVE CHANCES. NONE-THE-LESS...ANOTHER ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS IS
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP OVER EASTERN NEBRASKA AND TRACK TO THE
EAST/SOUTHEAST ALONG THE EDGE OF THE CAP. THIS MAY IMPACT STJ BUT
CONFIDENCE IS VERY LOW SO HAVE ONLY INCLUDED A CB GROUP. FOR THE
OVERNIGHT...A STRONG LOW LEVEL JET IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP WHICH MAY
LEAD TO LLWS AT THE TERMINALS.
