.DISCUSSION...
/410 AM CDT SUN JUL 31 2011/

ANOTHER CLUSTER OF TSRA HAS FORMED OVER THE PAST SEVERAL HOURS IN
SWRN MO IN RESPONSE TO ISENTROPIC LIFT AT THE MID LEVELS.  THIS AREA
IS EXPECTED TO EXPAND IN COVERAGE SOMEWHAT HEADING THRU THE DAY BUT
ALSO TEND TO WEAKEN IN INTENSITY BEFORE EXITING BY EARLY THIS
EVENING.  THE NET RESULT SHOULD BE A MINOR THREAT FOR TSRA IN CNTRL
AND SERN MO TODAY AS THESE AREAS SHOULD BE ON THE NERN PERIPHERY OF
WHAT DOES DEVELOP.

PATCHY FOG THAT HAS FORMED EARLY THIS MORNING FOR AREAS N OF
INTERSTATE 70 SHOULD DISSIPATE RAPIDLY EARLY THIS MORNING BUT WILL
INCLUDE MENTION OF IT IN VARIOUS PRODUCTS AS VSBYS HAVE DROPPED
BELOW A MILE IN SPOTS.

UPPER LEVEL RIDGE CENTER IS TO OUR W AND SHOULD REMAIN SO THRU AT
LEAST TUESDAY...BUT IT SHOULD ALSO BUILD AND STRENGTHEN THRU TUESDAY
AS WELL.  AS A RESULT...HEAT IS EXPECTED TO RETURN IN FORCE THIS
AFTERNOON WITH PEAK HEAT INDEX READINGS BETWEEN 100 AND 105...AND
THEN INTENSIFY SLIGHTLY TO 105-110 FOR MOST LOCATIONS BY TUESDAY.
THIS END RESULT WILL BE FROM HOTTER AMBIENT TEMPS EACH DAY HEADING
INTO TUESDAY...BUT WITH DEWPOINTS TAILING OFF TO COMPENSATE.
TUESDAY SHOULD SEE SEVERAL SPOTS BREAK THE CENTURY MARK.

BY MID WEEK...WE BEGIN TO SEE SOME FLATTENING AND SUPPRESSION OF
THIS RIDGE...AS A SFC CDFNT MAKES ITS WAY INTO OUR REGION BY
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND LINGERS INTO LATE WEEK.  WEDNESDAY TEMPS
WILL BE NEARLY AS HOT AS TUESDAY AS SHORT OF ANY STORMS FORMING
EARLY ALONG THE FRONT...FROPA WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON WILL HAVE LITTLE
EFFECT...UNTIL THURSDAY BUT EVEN THEN WILL ONLY SERVE TO GET US
CLOSER TO AVERAGE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.

HEAT HEADLINES ALL REMAIN AS-IS.
