AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
716 PM CDT SUN MAY 1 2011

...UPDATE TO AVIATION...

.DISCUSSION...

THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS ARE NOT ONLY CHANCES FOR RAINFALL EARLY
THIS WEEK...BUT ALSO RAIN AMOUNTS GIVEN THE WET GROUND CONDITIONS.
PLEASE SEE THE HYDROLOGY SECTION BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING THE
FLOOD POTENTIAL. BELIEVE IT OR NOT...THERE IS THEN AT LEAST
LIMITED POTENTIAL FOR FROST EARLY THIS WEEK.

RADAR IS FAIRLY ACTIVE THIS AFTERNOON WITH A LARGE SHIELD OF RAIN
PUSHING ACROSS THE REGION. LIGHTNING STRIKES TO THIS POINT HAVE
MAINLY BEEN CONFINED TO OKLAHOMA AND ARKANSAS. THE HEAVIEST
RAINFALL IN THE MISSOURI OZARKS OVER THE PAST 12 HOURS HAS BEEN
ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI...WITH SOME LOCATIONS PUSHING THREE
QUARTERS OF AN INCH FROM SOUTHERN HOWELL INTO OREGON COUNTIES.
EVEN HEAVIER RAIN IS FALLING ACROSS EASTERN OKLAHOMA AND ARKANSAS
CLOSER TO A STALLED OUT SURFACE FRONT.

HEADING INTO THIS EVENING...RAIN SHOWERS AND PERHAPS A FEW
THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST ACROSS MUCH OF THE MISSOURI OZARKS.
WENT ON THE HIGH SIDE WITH POPS AS LOW LEVEL ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE
REMAINS COMPLIMENTED WITH MID AND UPPER TROPOSPHERIC ASCENT
THANKS TO THE POSITIONING OF AN UPPER LEVEL JET STREAK. DO FEEL
THAT THE BACK EDGE OF THE RAIN SHOWERS WILL SHIFT SOUTHEAST TO
NEAR OR JUST SOUTHEAST OF THE INTERSTATE 44 CORRIDOR LATER
TONIGHT. MAY ACTUALLY SEE A BRIEF BOUT OF CLEARING ACROSS PART
OF WEST CENTRAL MISSOURI. THIS MAY WREAK HAVOC WITH
TEMPERATURES...AND OPEN THE DOOR FOR SOME PATCHY FOG. LEFT THE FOG
OUT OF THE FORECAST FOR NOW AS THE WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY LOOKS
RATHER SMALL.

SHORT WAVE ENERGY WILL THEN APPROACH THE AREA FROM THE SOUTHWEST
AGAIN ON MONDAY. MID AND UPPER LEVEL ASCENT WILL REMAIN IN PLACE
ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA AS WE REMAIN IN THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION
OF AN UPPER LEVEL JET CORE. ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE WILL AGAIN INCREASE
LATER MONDAY MORNING AND AFTERNOON ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI.
THEREFORE EXPECT RAIN TO SPREAD BACK TO...OR JUST NORTH OF THE
INTERSTATE 44 CORRIDOR BY THE AFTERNOON. TOUGH CALL ON HOW FAR
NORTHWEST THE BACK EDGE SETS UP AS THE ISENTROPIC UPGLIDE FOR THIS
GO AROUND WILL NOT BE AS STRONG AS WE SAW TODAY. THEREFORE KEPT
POPS IN THE CHANCE RANGE UP ACROSS WEST CENTRAL MISSOURI.

THE BACK EDGE OF THE RAIN SHOULD THEN BEGIN TO SHIFT SOUTHEAST
LATER MONDAY EVENING AND ESPECIALLY OVERNIGHT AS THAT STALLED
FRONT BEGINS TO FINALLY SHUNT SOUTHEAST WITH AN INCOMING UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH. FEEL THAT MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE RAIN SHOWER
ACTIVITY WILL SHIFT OUT OF SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI BY TUESDAY
MORNING. KEPT TEMPERATURES ON THE COOL SIDE OF GUIDANCE...EVEN
INTO TUESDAY AS A PASSING MID LEVEL COLD CORE SHOULD LEAD TO
DECENT CUMULUS DEVELOPMENT.

THE NEXT FORECAST CONCERN THEN BECOMES THE POTENTIAL FOR FROST
AND/OR FOG AS A SURFACE RIDGE AXIS SHIFTS OVER THE REGION. FROST
MONDAY NIGHT WILL BE HIGHLY DEPENDENT ON HOW QUICKLY CLOUDS CAN
CLEAR. DID INSERT PATCHY FROST ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND WEST
CENTRAL MISSOURI WHERE CLOUDS WILL CLEAR THE QUICKEST. FROST
POTENTIAL TUESDAY NIGHT MAY THEN BE MORE DEPENDENT ON THE POSITION
OF A SURFACE RIDGE AXIS. AREAS EAST OF THIS RIDGE AXIS STAND A
DECENT CHANCE OF FALLING INTO THE MIDDLE AND UPPER 30S. AT THIS
TIME...IT APPEARS THAT THE GREATEST THREAT FOR FROST TUESDAY NIGHT
WILL BE ACROSS THE EASTERN MISSOURI OZARKS. THOSE WITH
AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS SHOULD CLOSELY MONITOR LATER FORECASTS AS
DETAILS WILL BECOME CLEARER IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS REGARDING FROST
POTENTIAL.

UPPER LEVEL HEIGHT RISES WILL THEN BRING WARMING TEMPERATURES TO
THE AREA STARTING AROUND MIDWEEK. MEDIUM RANGE MODELS THEN
CONTINUE TO ADVERTISE SHORT WAVE ENERGY AND A SURFACE FRONT
PUSHING THROUGH THE REGION THURSDAY OR THURSDAY NIGHT. MOISTURE
AVAILABILITY CONTINUES TO LOOK UNIMPRESSIVE...SO HAVE KEPT POPS
IN THE 20 TO 30 PERCENT RANGE. THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW WILL REMAIN
FAIRLY FLAT INTO NEXT WEEKEND WITH THE 12Z GFS AND ECMWF SHOWING
AT LEAST A WEAK SIGNAL FOR ANOTHER SYSTEM IMPACTING THE AREA LATER
NEXT WEEKEND. KEPT POPS LOW AT THIS TIME AS CONFIDENCE IS LOW
REGARDING THE TIMING AND TRACK OF THIS SYSTEM.

.AVIATION...
/ISSUED 703 PM CDT SUN MAY 1 2011/

FOR THE 02/0000Z KSGF/KJLN/KBBG TAFS...A LARGE AREA OF OF RAIN AND
EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS IS AFFECTING THE BRANSON-KBBG/SPRINGFIELD-KSGF SITES
AND POINTS EAST WITH MVFR OCNL IFR CONDITIONS. SHORT TERM TRENDS
INDICATE THIS RAIN WILL SHIFT EAST SOMEWHAT...AND WILL GO WITH A
PERSISTENCE FORECAST IN THE NEAR TERM AT KSGF WITH IMPROVING
CEILINGS AFTER 02/02Z-04Z. THE KBBG TAFS WILL REMAIN IN PRECIP
WITH LOWER CIGS/VIS LONGER INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AND WILL NEED
TO WATCH TRENDS. SOME IMPROVEMENT IN FLIGHT CONDITIONS IS EXPECTED
SOMETIME AFTER 06Z-09Z. WILL KEEP KJLN VFR WITH THE BULK OF THE
PRECIP STAYING TO THE SOUTH AND EAST.

.HYDROLOGY...

VERY LITTLE CHANGE HAS BEEN MADE TO FORECAST QPF AMOUNTS...THUS
THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH WAS LEFT ALONE. INTERMITTENT RAIN SHOWERS
ARE STILL EXPECTED THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL
MISSOURI. THINK ANY THUNDER WILL MAINLY BE CONFINED TO TONIGHT.
BESIDES PERHAPS A LEFT OVER SHOWER EARLY TUESDAY MORNING...IT DOES
LOOK LIKE THE RAIN SHOWER THREAT WILL SHIFT EAST OF THE AREA BY
TUESDAY. STILL LOOKING AT 1 TO 3 INCHES ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL
MISSOURI...WHICH WILL POSE A FLOOD THREAT GIVEN THE VERY WET
ANTECEDENT CONDITIONS.
