AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
144 PM CST SUN FEB 21 2010

.DISCUSSION...

...OVERVIEW...
MAIN FOCUS WILL BE WITH PRECIPITATION CHANCES/TYPE TONIGHT AND
THEN WITH TEMPERATURES THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD.

...CURRENTLY...
LOW PRESSURE LOCATED OVER SOUTHWEST MISSOURI ALONG A STATIONARY
BOUNDARY FROM NEAR JOPLIN TO OSAGE BEACH. HAS NOT BEEN MUCH
MOVEMENT WITH TEMPERATURES TODAY WITH CLOUD COVER/RAIN AND LITTLE
PUSH EASTWARD OF COLDER AIR MASS YET. NEXT ROUND OF HEAVIER RAIN
WAS PUSHING INTO SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI AND LOOKS TO AFFECT AREAS
EAST OF A BRANSON TO ROLLA LINE. SHARP CUTOFF OF PRECIPITATION
FROM NEAR CASSVILLE TO OSCEOLA WITH SOME ADDITIONAL LIGHT
PRECIPITATION STILL OCCURRING FURTHER WEST IN NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA.

...FORECAST...

EXPECT THE HEAVIER RAIN TO SHIFT ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL MO THROUGH
THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON AND DURING THE FIRST FEW HOURS OF THE
EVENING HOURS. SURFACE LOW WILL CONTINUE TO LIFT EAST-NORTHEAST
ACROSS THE CWA THROUGH THE EVENING WITH COLDER AIR MOVING INTO THE
WESTERN CWA BEHIND THE LOW. MAY SEE A TRANSITION OVER TO LIGHT
SNOW IF PRECIPITATION IN NORTH CENTRAL OKLAHOMA CAN MOVE INTO THE
FORECAST AREA WHICH MODELS ARE HINTING AT DURING THE EVENING
HOURS. MOST OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL REMAIN LIGHT AND AM NOT
EXPECTING MUCH IN THE WAY OF ACCUMULATION...POSSIBLY UP TO A HALF
AN INCH IN OUR FAR NORTHERN CWA. AT THIS POINT DOES NOT APPEAR
ENOUGH WINTRY PRECIPITATION TO WARRANT ANY KIND OF HEADLINES.

REMAINDER OF WEEK WILL BE DOMINATED BY COLDER THAN NORMAL
TEMPERATURES. NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH WILL DIG INTO THE OHIO VALLEY
ON WEDNESDAY WHICH WILL REINFORCE THE COLDER AIR MASS OVER THE
REGION. LOWS IN THE TEENS TO LOW 20S AND HIGHS IN THE 30S WILL BE
COMMON THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. MOISTURE WILL BE LIMITED AND LITTLE OR
NO MEASUREABLE PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED.

.AVIATION...

PILOTS FLYING IN AND OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST MISSOURI AIRPORTS CAN
EXPECT IFR CONDITIONS THROUGH MOST OF THE NEXT 24 HOURS.

A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM ALONG WITH AN ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WAS
CREATING PRECIPITATION AND LOW CLOUD COVER THIS AFTERNOON.  ONCE THE
COLD FRONT SURGES THROUGH BOTH THE SPRINGFIELD AND BRANSON
AIRPORTS...CEILINGS WILL FALL WELL BELOW THE IFR THRESHOLD.  JOPLIN
IS ALREADY EXPERIENCING THESE LOWER CEILINGS AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO
SO THROUGH THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT PERIOD.

RAIN WILL CAUSE LOWER VISIBILITIES FOR SPRINGFIELD AND BRANSON
THROUGH THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON AND INTO THE EARLY EVENING
PERIOD.  THIS RAIN COULD BE MODERATE AT TIMES...CAUSING IFR
VISIBILITIES.  THE JOPLIN AIRFIELD WILL EXPERIENCE MORE FOG THAN
RAIN...HOWEVER...A FEW RAIN SHOWERS COULD BRIEFLY FALL OVER THIS
AIRFIELD.

SURFACE WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTH UPON THE PASSAGE OF THE
FRONT...AND CONTINUE FROM THE NORTH AT AROUND 10MPH THROUGH THE NEXT
24 HOURS.
