AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

744 PM CDT FRI MAY 20 2011

.DISCUSSION...

IT HAS NOW BECOME APPARENT THAT THE SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE CONVECTIVE
SYSTEM THAT HAS WEAKENED AND EXITED THE FORECAST AREA HAS
EFFECTIVELY PUT AN END TO THE RAIN FOR AT LEAST THE NEAR TERM. SPC
MESO PAGE SHOWS CONSIDERABLE SURFACE BASED CIN OVER MOST OF THE
FORECAST AREA. LATEST RUC AND HRRR FORECAST SEEM TO HAVE A GOOD
HANDLE ON THIS AS WELL AS THIS MORNINGS 4KM NMM/WRF. WIDESPREAD
CONVECTION FROM EASTERN OK INTO SW MO AND WESTERN AR WHILE ADVANCING
EASTWARD WILL HAVE A NORTHERLY COMPONENT TO IT WHICH WILL TAKE IT
INTO THE SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHEASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA LATER
THIS EVENING.

ALTHOUGH HAVE TRIMMED THE POPS SIGNIFICANTLY ACROSS THE WESTERN CWA
WILL NEED TO KEEP A CLOSE EYE OVER EASTERN KS LATER THIS EVENING AS
MID LEVEL PVA SPREADS EASTWARD. THIS UPWARD FORCING COULD BE ENOUGH
TO GENERATE SOME ELEVATED CONVECTION AS NOTED BY LATEST HRRR PROG.

MJ

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
/451 PM CDT FRI MAY 20 2011/
HAVE LOWERED POPS CONSIDERABLY FOR THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON HOURS
AS SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE BEHIND THE WEAKENING MCS OVER
CENTRAL/EASTERN MO HAS ERODED BACK EDGE OF RAIN SHIELD. SEE NO SIGNS
OF ANY ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT OVER EASTERN KS/WEST CENTRAL MO
THROUGH AT LEAST 00Z. WILL RE-EVALUATE FORECAST OVER THE NEXT COUPLE
OF HOURS AS HAVE SOME CONCERN WE MAY NOT SEE MUCH ADDITIONAL
CONVECTION THIS EVENING OVER AT LEAST THE WESTERN HALF OF THE CWA.
LATEST SHORT RANGE MODELS SUCH AS HRRR AND 4KM WRF/NMM SUGGEST THIS.
NOT OVERLY CONFIDENT ON RELYING SOLELY ON THE 18Z RUNS OF THE
NAM/GFS.

.PREV DISCUSSION...
/330 PM CDT FRI MAY 20 2011/
DEEP COLD CORE VORTEX OVER THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST CONTINUES TO SPIT
SHORTWAVES INTO THE PLAINS WARM SECTOR...THE FIRST OF WHICH NOW OVER
ERN NEBRASKA WHICH HELPED SUPPORT THE CONVECTIVE ENVELOPING
MISSOURI...AND A SECONDARY WAVE NOW MOVING INTO WRN KANSAS IGNITING
STORMS ALONG A COLD FRONT FROM KRSL-KGAG. THE WARM SECTOR CAN BE
CHARACTERIZED BY A STRONG MOIST MERIDIONAL COMPONENT...VIRTUALLY
UNCAPPED...YET WITH LIMITED MIDLEVEL LAPSE RATES (SANS ALONG THE
CNTRL KANSAS COLD FRONT) AND INSTABILITY (MLCAPES GENERALLY AOB 1000
J/KG). PRIMARY FORECAST CHALLENGE OVER THE NEXT 12-24 HOURS WILL BE
CONVECTIVE CHANCES AND PLACEMENT...AS THE RANGE OF OPERATIONAL
COARSE SCALE AND FINER SCALE MESOSCALE MODELS DEPICT WIDELY VARYING
SOLUTIONS. IN GENERAL...PREFER A BLEND OF THE HIGHER RESOLUTION 3KM
HRRR AND 4KM WRF-NMM OUTPUT...WHICH SHOWS COLD FRONTAL CONVECTION
LIFTING NORTHWEST OF THE AREA THIS EVENING WITH THE WRN KANSAS
WAVE...WHILE A SECONDARY CONVECTIVE AREA OVER SRN OKLAHOMA LIFTS
INTO SOUTHWEST MISSOURI ALONG THE BETTER H8 THETA-E
RIDGE...ESSENTIALLY LEAVING MUCH OF ERN KANSAS AND WRN MISSOURI IN A
PRECIPITATION VOID AREA. HOWEVER...GIVEN THE UNCAPPED MOIST
ENVIRONMENT AND NUMEROUS CONVECTIVELY INDUCED PERTURBATIONS
THROUGHOUT THE AREA...CANNOT WHOLLY ARGUE AGAINST ANY RAINFALL
THROUGH SATURDAY AFTERNOON...AND HAVE KEPT POPS AOA CLIMATOLOGY.

VERY INTERESTING AND POTENTIALLY CONVECTIVELY ACTIVE PERIODS BOTH
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING. AS MAIN COLD CORE
LIFTS INTO THE DAKOTAS...FLOW ALOFT WILL BECOME LESS MERIDIONAL
ALLOWING STEEPER H7-H5 LAPSE RATES AS WELL AS STRONGER ELEVATED
CAPPING TO ADVECT NORTHEAST INTO THE LOWER MISSOURI RIVER VALLEY.
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL GO NOWHERE WITH AN ILL DEFINED SFC BOUNDARY
LINGERING THROUGH KANSAS. ASSUMING SUFFICIENT SFC INSOLATION AND
GROWING INSTABILITY PARAMETERS (SFC T/TD PROFILES POSSIBLY MID
80S/UPPER 60S YIELDING MLCAPES AOA 3000 J/KG)...ANY SMALL WAVE AND
LEADING EDGE OF AN APPROACHING PV ANOMALY...ALONG WITH SFC
CONVERGENCE MAY ALLOW FOR DEEP CONVECTIVE UPDRAFTS AND ORGANIZED
TSTMS. BOTH LOW LEVEL 0-1KM AND DEEP LAYER 0-6KM SHEAR WILL BE
SLIGHTLY WEAKER ON SATURDAY VERSUS SUNDAY...HOWEVER MOST LIKELY
ENOUGH TO SUPPORT ANY ORGANIZED UPDRAFTS (ESPECIALLY SUNDAY WHERE
BETTER SUPERCELLULAR TYPE WIND PROFILES ARE MORE LIKELY TO EXIST).
LARGEST CONCERN IS THE FORECAST TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF CAPE IN THE
-10C TO -30C HAIL GROWTH REGION ALOFT BOTH DAYS...AND ANY STORMS
THAT COULD OBTAIN A MIDLEVEL ROTATIONAL COMPONENT WOULD BE CAPABLE
OF LOFTING VERY LARGE HAIL. AND WHILE NOT A WIDESPREAD TYPE
EVENT...THE POTENTIAL RAMIFICATIONS CERTAINLY ARE WORTH NOTING.
OTHERWISE...GIVEN THE REPEATED ROUNDS OF CONVECTION...WILL NEED TO
WATCH FOR FLOODING CONCERNS THROUGH THE WEEKEND. GIVEN THE MORE
SCATTERED NATURE TO ANY STORMS AND NOT EXPECTING MORE PROLIFIC
CONVECTIVE COMPLEXES...HAVE NOT ISSUED ANY FLOOD WATCHES...THOUGH
LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL CERTAINLY BE POSSIBLE WITH EACH SUCCESSIVE
RAINFALL EVENT.

21

MEDIUM RANGE (MONDAY-FRIDAY)...

MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW AN ACTIVE EARLY EXTENDED FORECAST AS
SOUTHWEST FLOW...PLENTY OF MOISTURE...A LOW LEVEL BOUNDARY IN THE
NEIGHBORHOOD AND PERIODIC WAVES SHOULD KEEP AT LEAST CHANCE POPS
THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT. IT WOULD APPEAR BEST INSTABILITY WOULD BE
MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING...BUT STILL SHEAR IS NOT AWESOME.
MODELS DIVERGE SOMEWHAT WITH WAVES FOR DAYS 6 AND 7 WITH NEW 12Z
ECMWF AND GEM SHOWING A DEPARTING WAVE WEDNESDAY NIGHT FOLLOWED BY
SURFACE RIDGING VS THE GFS WHICH SHOWS A FAIRLY COMPACT WAVE THE
OTHER TWO DON'T MOVING THROUGH THURSDAY. FOR NOW HAVE GONE DRY
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. REALISTICALLY THIS TIME OF YEAR WITH THIS
PATTERN YOU JUST CAN'T TELL 6 OR 7 DAYS OUT WHETHER IT WILL BE DRY
OR NOT. RATHER THAN GO WITH POPS THAT ARE LESS THAN CLIMO FOR THOSE
DAYS CHOSE TO TAKE A STAND AND GO DRY.

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 00Z TAF...PREFER LATEST SHORT RANGE PROGS...RUC AND
HRRR...AND RADAR/SATELLITE AS THEY BETTER FIT TRENDS AND
EXPECTATIONS BETTER THAN 18Z NAM/GFS. PRONOUNCED SUBSIDENCE IN WAKE
OF EARLIER CONVECTION WILL MOST LIKELY KEEP WIDESPREAD CONVECTION AT
BAY. NOT TO SAY A FEW SHOWERS COULD POP UP IN THE TROPICAL TYPE
AIRMASS BUT THEY WILL MOST LIKELY BE HIT AND MISS. SO WILL GO WITH A
DRY FORECAST FOR THE TERMINALS.

DUE TO TODAYS RAIN AND WEAKENING SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL
INTRODUCE MVFR FOG FOR KMCI LATER TONIGHT AND ADD MVFR CIGS FOR
KSTJ. WILL NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON VISIBILITY TRENDS LATE TONIGHT AS
SREF SURFACE VISIBILITY PROG INDICATES POTENTIAL FOR IFR FOG.

OTHERWISE...LOWER LEVEL VFR CIGS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO THE TERMINALS
LATER THIS EVENING AND THEN SCATTER OUT BY LATE SATURDAY MORNING.

700 PM CDT FRI MAY 20 2011

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT

SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS MAY MOVE BACK INTO PARTS OF WEST CENTRAL AND CENTRAL
MISSOURI LATER THIS EVENING. SEVERAL AREAS OF A THUNDERSTORMS OVER
WESTERN ARKANSAS...EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND SOUTHWEST MISSOURI ARE
GRADUALLY SPREADING NORTHEAST AND COULD REACH AREAS EAST OF A BUTLER
TO MOSEBY LINE. HOWEVER...NO SEVERE WEATHER IS EXPECTED.

THERE IS A SLIGHT CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS OVER NORTHWEST MISSOURI
TONIGHT. ANY STORMS THAT DO FORM ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BECOME SEVERE.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY

SEVERAL ROUNDS OF THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THIS WEEKEND AND MONDAY AS
WARM...MOIST AND MODESTLY UNSTABLE AIR REMAINS IN PLACE AHEAD OF A
DEEP STORM SYSTEM THAT WILL TRACK ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND
UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. THERE WILL BE A THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER
DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS OF SATURDAY...SUNDAY...AND
MONDAY. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREATS
WITH ANY OF THESE STORMS.

ANOTHER SYSTEM WILL MOVE IN ACROSS THE CENTRAL ROCKIES ON TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY AND BRING ANOTHER COUPLE ROUNDS OF THUNDERSTORMS TO THE
REGION. THE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE MINIMAL.

ALTHOUGH PRECIPITATION EVENTS WILL BE SCATTERED AND NOT
CONTINUOUS FOR THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS...LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL...ESPECIALLY IN THUNDERSTORMS...WILL LIKELY DEVELOP AS
DEEPER MOISTURE INCREASES. TOTAL RAINFALL ACCUMULATIONS THROUGH
EARLY NEXT WEEK MAY EXCEED SEVERAL INCHES IN SOME LOCATIONS ACROSS
THE OUTLOOK AREA. THIS WILL INCREASE THE THREAT FOR LOCALIZED FLASH
FLOODING...AND MAY PUSH SOME STREAMS AND RIVERS INTO FLOOD THROUGH
THE WEEKEND AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT ANTICIPATED THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING...BUT
MAY BE NECESSARY IN SOME LOCATIONS SATURDAY...SUNDAY...AND MONDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
