AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
313 PM CDT MON MAY 23 2011

.DISCUSSION...

TODAY...

UNFORTUNATELY...STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE
OZARKS TODAY. CURRENTLY...REGIONAL RADAR REVEALS CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT EXTENDING FROM SOUTHERN ILLINOIS THROUGH SOUTHERN
MISSOURI AND DOWN INTO NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA. STORMS CONTINUE TO FIRE
ALONG A PSEUDO-STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER
LEVEL AND SURFACE LOW THAT CONTINUES TO MARCH SLOWLY TO THE EAST
ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION. STORMS CONTINUE TO BE FEED BY THE
ADVECTION OF WARM MOIST UNSTABLE AIR INTO THE REGION. STRONG TO
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THROUGH
THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS AS SURFACE DEW POINTS IN THE
UPPER 60S AND LOWER 70S WILL CONTINUE TO BE AVAILABLE SOUTH OF THE
REGION. CONVECTION WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ALONG THIS BOUNDARY AS
A DECENT RIDGE OF THETA E AIR ALIGNS ITSELF ALONG THE MISSOURI
ARKANSAS BORDER. 700-500MB LAPSE RATES OF UP TO 8 C ALONG WITH
0-6KM BULK SHEAR VALUES OF 40KTS ALIGNED ALONG THE MISSOURI
ARKANSAS BORDER WILL HELP SUSTAIN UPDRAFTS STRONG ENOUGH TO
SUPPORT SEVERE HAIL GROWTH WITH SOME STORMS. FROM THIS
MORNING...THE UNMODIFIED 12Z SOUNDING SHOWED 1900 J/KG AVAILABLE
MLCAPE WITH ABOUT -230 J/KG MLCIN. FROM THE ONGOING
CONVECTION...THE BOUNDARY OFFERS MORE THAN ENOUGH LIFT FOR
CONVECTION. GIVEN OUR DEEP LAYER BULK SHEAR VALUES...STORMS WILL
CONTINUE TO TAKE ON AN ORGANIZED SEVERE CLUSTER/LINE SEGMENT TYPE
STRUCTURE. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS WILL
CONTINUE TO BE OUR MAJOR THREATS WITH THESE STORMS GIVEN STEEP LOW
LEVEL AND MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND THETA E DIFFERENTIALS OF 20 TO
30 K ALONG SOUTHERN MISSOURI. ISOLATED TORNADOES WILL CONTINUE TO
POSE A THREAT WHERE LOW LEVEL HELICITIES BECOME MAXIMIZED ALONG
THE BOUNDARY AND WHERE THE LLJ BEGINS TO PICK UP TONIGHT.

FOR TONIGHT...CONVECTION WILL MOST LIKELY DEVELOP INTO AN MCS
LATER TONIGHT AS THE LLJ INCREASES AND PROPAGATE ALONG THE RIDGE
OF ELEVATED THETA E ADVECTION ACROSS SOUTHERN MISSOURI. COULD
CONTINUE TO SEE ELEVATED CONVECTION OVERNIGHT AS A MULTITUDE OF
OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES WILL MOST LIKELY MOVE OUT ACROSS THE REGION.

HYDRO CONTINUES TO POSE A SILENT CONCERN GIVEN THE COVERAGE TO
SEVERE WEATHER. HOWEVER...WITH THE CONTINUAL RAIN FALL ACROSS FAR
SOUTHWEST MISSOURI SMALL TRIBUTARIES AND MULTIPLE LOW WATER
CROSSINGS ARE CONTINUING TO FLOOD. THE WHITE RIVER BASIN IS
NEARING ITS CAPACITY AND THE CORP OF ENGINEERS IS TAKING STEPS TO
MAKE ADDITIONAL RELEASE ALONG BEAVER LAKE IN ARKANSAS...TABLE ROCK
IN MISSOURI...AND BULL SHOALS. AS WITH LAST NIGHT...QPF CONTINUES
TO EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FORECAST...SINCE HEAVIEST RAIN WILL BE
TIED TO THUNDERSTORM CORES. FLASH FLOODING AND FLOODING CONTINUE
TO BE A SERIOUS RISK TO THE CWA.

TUESDAY...

ANY PRECIP FROM MONDAY NIGHT WILL POSSIBLY LINGER ACROSS OUR
EASTERN COUNTIES EARLY IN THE MORNING. OUR NEXT STORM SYSTEM...AN
UPPER LEVEL LOW WITH AN ASSOCIATED COLORADO LOW WILL DEVELOP AND
BEGIN TO EJECT EASTWARD ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS ON TUESDAY. A
DRY LINE WILL DEVELOP FROM SOUTH CENTRAL KANSAS THROUGH CENTRAL
TEXAS. ONCE AGAIN AN EML WILL ESTABLISH ITSELF OVER THE FORECAST
AREA. ALTHOUGH NOT AS STRONG AS SUNDAY...850 TO 700MB LAYER TEMPS
ARE PROGGED NEAR 8 TO 10 DEGREES C...THIS WILL HELP IN BUILDING AN
EXTREMELY WARM MOIST UNSTABLE AIRMASS WITHIN THE BOUNDARY LAYER
AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM INTO THE AFTERNOON. STORMS WILL MOST LIKELY BEGIN
TO FIRE OUT ACROSS CENTRAL KANSAS AND OKLAHOMA LATE IN THE
AFTERNOON. CONVECTIVE MODE HAS BEEN A BIT OF CHALLENGE...BUT WITH
RECENT GUIDANCE...SOME CONFIDENCE THAT STORMS WILL DEVELOP AHEAD
OF THE APPROACHING DRY LINE/COLD FRONTAL BOUNDARY. ANALYZING 2-8KM
WINDS OF 40 TO 55KTS OUT OF THE WEST/SOUTHWEST AND AN EXPECTED
COLD POOL STRENGTH OF 30 TO 40KTS...EXPECTING ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS WITH SOME SUPERCELLULAR DEVELOPMENT. THE BOUNDARY
APPEARS TO INCREASE IN SPEED AS IT ADVANCES EAST AS THE LOW
CONTINUES TO DEEPEN WITH AN INCREASINGLY NEGATIVE TILT OF THE MID
LEVEL TROUGH AXIS. THIS BODES WELL FOR SURFACE BASED CONVECTION
CONTINUING INTO OUR CWA...WHERE WE WILL MOST LIKELY SEE A LINEAR
TYPE SET UP AS IT CROSSES THE OZARKS TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH
WEDNESDAY MORNING.

WEDNESDAY...

SOME CONCERN CONVECTION OVERNIGHT FROM TUESDAY WILL LINGER OVER
THE REGION IN THE FORM OF A NOCTURNAL MCS EARLY. DRY LINE WILL
MOST LIKELY HOLD UP ON WEDNESDAY NEAR THE FOUR STATES REGION OF
KANSAS...MISSOURI...OKLAHOMA AND ARKANSAS EARLY AS THE UPPER LOW
MEANDERS OVER THE REGION. EARLY IN THE AFTERNOON THE UPPER LOW
WILL FINALLY BEGIN TO PUSH EAST DRAGGING THE DRY LINE/FRONTAL
BOUNDARY THROUGH THE REGION. CONVECTIVE MODE IS STILL A LITTLE
HAZY AT THIS TIME AS THE COLD POOL STRENGTH APPEARS NEGLIGIBLE.
HOWEVER...COULD CERTAINLY SEE ISOLATED CELLS DEVELOP AHEAD OF THE
FRONT AND GIVEN THE ENVIRONMENT WILL MORE THAN CONDUCIVE TO SEVERE
CONVECTION...MODEST 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR AND STEEP MID-LEVEL LAPSE
RATES...THE POSSIBILITY OF LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS AND TORNADOES
REMAINS A DISTINCT POSSIBILITY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON.

THURSDAY AND BEYOND...

SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY CONTINUE TO LINGER EARLY
THURSDAY AS THE THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS FINALLY MOVES EAST OF
THE FORECAST AREA LATE IN THE MORNING. THIS WILL FINALLY USHER IN
A WELL NEEDED PATTERN CHANGE. HOWEVER...THE EXTENDED GUIDANCE
REMAINS IN SOMEWHAT POOR AGREEMENT GOING INTO THE WEEKEND...BUT
DRY AND SEASONABLY PLEASANT WEATHER APPEARS ON OUR HORIZON FOR THE
END OF THE WORK WEEK.

KURTZ

&&

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 18Z KSGF...KJLN AND KBBG TAFS...CONVECTION CONTINUES TO
SLOWLY TRACK EAST ACROSS THE AREA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. SHOWERS
WITH EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN POSSIBLE EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON AT ALL TAF SITES...WITH THE BEST POTENTIAL AT THE KBBG
SITE. THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE POSSIBLE AT THE KBBG SITE THROUGH MUCH
OF THE AFTERNOON HOURS.

WILL HAVE TO WATCH THE LOW LEVEL JET TONIGHT AS CONVECTION MAY
ONCE AGAIN TRY TO DEVELOP...HOWEVER CONFIDENCE IN THIS IS LOW AT
THIS TIME. IF CLOUDS CLEAR OUT EARLY TUESDAY MORNING...SOME
FOG/LOW STRATUS DECK DEVELOPMENT MAYBE POSSIBLE.

350 PM CDT MON MAY 23 2011

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF THE MISSOURI
OZARKS AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER RISK LEVEL IS...SIGNIFICANT.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...

  LIMITED TORNADO RISK.
  SIGNIFICANT HAIL RISK.
  ELEVATED THUNDERSTORM WIND DAMAGE RISK.
  SIGNIFICANT FLOODING RISK.
  SIGNIFICANT LIGHTNING RISK.

DISCUSSION...

  THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO TRACK EAST FROM NORTHEAST
  OKLAHOMA AND SOUTHEAST KANSAS INTO EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND
  SOUTHWEST MISSOURI. THE CLOUD COVER OVER THE AREA HAS LIMITED
  SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY...WITH THESE STORMS BEING ELEVATED IN
  NATURE. THEREFORE...THE MAIN RISKS WITH THESE STORMS WILL BE
  LARGE HAIL...HEAVY RAINFALL AND CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING. THERE
  MAY BE A DAMAGING WIND RISK IF ANY BOWING LINE SEGMENTS CAN
  DEVELOP.

  THERE ARE MULTIPLE STORMS THAT ARE TRACKING OVER THE SAME
  LOCATIONS LIKELY LEADING TO A SIGNIFICANT RISK OF FLOODING OVER
  FAR SOUTHWEST MISSOURI. WITH THE GROUND IN MANY LOCATIONS
  ALREADY SATURATED...HEAVY RAIN WILL RESULT IN FLASH FLOODING IN
  SOME LOCATIONS. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS NOW IN EFFECT THROUGH
  WEDNESDAY MORNING.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

  THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE AGAIN TUESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
  TUESDAY NIGHT...AND AGAIN ON WEDNESDAY. AT THIS TIME...THERE
  APPEARS TO BE AN ENHANCED THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER TUESDAY
  EVENING AND TUESDAY NIGHT. DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS...LARGE
  HAIL...AND TORNADOES ALL APPEAR POSSIBLE TUESDAY...TUESDAY
  NIGHT...AND WEDNESDAY.

  DAILY ROUNDS OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL RESULT IN A THREAT FOR FLASH
  FLOODING THROUGH AT LEAST WEDNESDAY MORNING. IN ADDITION...
  RISES ALONG AREA RIVERS ARE ALSO EXPECTED.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

  SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS
  EVENING.
