AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
724 PM CDT SUN APR 10 2011

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...

.UPDATE...

THE 00Z RAOB HAS BEEN PERFORMED AND ANALYZED UP THROUGH 400MB.

SHALLOW CONVECTION CONTINUES TO STEW ALONG A DRY LINE...WHICH AT
00Z...EXTENDED FROM VERSAILLES DOWN TOWARD NEOSHO MISSOURI.
UPDRAFTS STRUGGLED TO PUNCH THROUGH A MID LEVEL CAP...THAT WAS
MEASURED AT AROUND 650MB.  HOWEVER...MID LEVEL HEIGHT FALLS
ASSOCIATED WITH AN APPROACHING DEEP TROUGH SHOULD CONTINUE TO WORK
ON THIS CAP...HELPING TO FACILITATE DEEP CONVECTION AS WE PROGRESS
THROUGH THE EVENING.

THE ENVIRONMENT AHEAD OF THE DRY LINE...BASED OFF OF THE 00Z
RAOB...WAS BECOMING SLIGHTLY MORE UNSTABLE...BUT STILL CAPPED.  WHEN
LIFTING A MIXED LAYER PARCEL...INHIBITION WAS MEASURED AT 118
J/KG...WHICH LOWERED FROM 223 J/KG MEASURED FROM THE 21Z SOUNDING.
BECAUSE OF THIS MID LEVEL CAP...WARM SECTOR CONVECTION IS BECOMING
LESS LIKELY...AS THE DRY LINE WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE PRIMARY
FOCUS FOR CONVECTION.

WE ALSO FEEL AS THOUGH THE TORNADO RISK DECREASING.  POOR LAPSE
RATES WITHIN THE LOWEST 3 KM WILL BE A MITIGATION FACTOR IN A STORMS
ABILITY TO PRODUCE TORNADOES.  THIS LACK OF LOW LEVEL CAPE IN
CONJUNCTION WITH VEERING SOUTHWEST WINDS AT THE SURFACE...ALSO
DECREASES THE RISK FOR TORNADOES.  HOWEVER...INCREASING NORMALIZED
CAPE WITHIN THE -10 TO -30 LAYER WILL FAVOR A DECENT RISK FOR LARGE
HAIL.  AND FINALLY...THE INVERTED V STRUCTURE FROM THE SURFACE TO
850MB...WILL PROMOTE A RISK FOR THUNDERSTORM WIND GUSTS UP TO 60
MPH.

THROUGH 03Z...AS UPPER MID LEVEL HEIGHT FALLS INCREASE BETWEEN 01
AND 03Z...UPDRAFTS ARE EXPECTED TO PUNCH THROUGH THE MID LEVEL
CAP...AND FORM A LINE OR BROKEN LINE OF CONVECTION ALONG THE DRY
LINE.  0-6 KM SHEAR VECTOR ORIENTATION WITH RESPECT TO THE DRY LINE
SUPPORTS THIS IDEA OF A SQUALL LINE.  MINI-BOWS WITHIN THE LINE ARE A
POSSIBILITY DUE TO THE DOWNBURST POTENTIAL ASSOCIATED WITH THE
INVERTED V STRUCTURE OF THE LOWER TROP.

CRAMER

&&

.DISCUSSION...
/ISSUED 300 PM CDT SUN APR 10 2011/

THUNDERSTORMS WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT AS A COLD FRONT
OVERTAKES THE DRY LINE AND MOVES EAST ACROSS THE REGION. THE UPPER
TROUGH WILL TRANSLATE EASTWARD ACROSS THE CENTRAL U.S. MONDAY
WHILE SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS EAST FROM THE PLAINS. TEMPERATURES
WILL BE CONSIDERABLY COOLER WHILE GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS WILL
PERSIST THROUGH THE DAY.

WINDS WILL SUBSIDE MONDAY NIGHT AS SURFACE PRESSURE SETTLES INTO
THE REGION. LOWS MONDAY NIGHT WILL FALL INTO THE UPPER 30 WITH MID
30S POSSIBLE IN THE COLDER VALLEYS. WHILE WIDESPREAD FROST IS NOT
EXPECTED...BUT PATCHY FROST CANNOT BE RULED OUT.

WARMER TEMPERATURES WILL RETURN TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY AS UPPER
LEVEL RIDGING BUILDS INTO THE AREA IN THE WAKE OF THE EXITING
TROUGH. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL RETURN WEDNESDAY AS THE NEXT SYSTEM
BEGINS TO SHAPE OUT WEST.

WHILE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS DIFFER IN THE DETAILS THEY DO BRING A
POTENT LOOKING SHORTWAVE AND ASSOCIATED FRONT ACROSS THE REGION
LATER THURSDAY. THIS BRING ANOTHER CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS AND PERHAPS SOME SEVERE WEATHER.

COOLER WEATHER WILL FOLLOW THE PASSAGE OF THIS SYSTEM FOR FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY.

.AVIATION...

FOR THE 00Z TAFS...DRYLINE CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM ABOUT KRAW TO
KJLN TO JUST EAST OF KTUL. COLD FRONT...MEANWHILE...EXTENDS FROM
KOJC TO JUST SOUTH OF KICT. CONVECTION JUST BEGINNING TO FIRE
ALONG THE DRY LINE AT THIS TIME.

WITH THE DRY LINE NEARLY THROUGH KJLN...CONVECTIVE THREAT WILL
DECREASE THERE OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. FURTHER EAST...EXPECT
SCATTERED CONVECTION TO DEVELOP IN THE VICINITY OF THE KSGF AND
KBBG AERODROMES AS THE DRY LINE PUSHES THROUGH. INITIALLY...CONVECTION
SHOULD BE RATHER NARROW AS A FAIRLY GOOD CAP IS STILL IN PLACE.
HOWEVER...AS THE UPPER LEVEL WAVE APPROACHES COULD SEE
PRECIPITATION LINGERING OVERNIGHT IN THE BRANSON AREA.

ONCE THE COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH...EXPECT RATHER GUSTY WINDS ON
MONDAY WITH SCATTERED CLOUDS.

GAEDE

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...

ELEVATED TO AREAS OF SIGNIFICANT FIRE WEATHER DANGER MAY DEVELOP
ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS INTO FAR SOUTHWEST MISSOURI THROUGH LATE
AFTERNOON AS A DRY LINE MOVES ACROSS THE AREA. HUMIDITY VALUES
MAY FALL INTO THE 20 TO 30 PERCENT WITH 20 FT WINDS APPROACHING
BUT CRITICAL THRESHOLDS. WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORING FOR A POSSIBLE
SHORT FUSE RED FLAG WARNING WEST OF HIGHWAY 71.

833 PM CDT SUN APR 10 2011

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

 THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER RISK LEVEL IS...SIGNIFICANT.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...

  SIGNIFICANT LIGHTNING RISK.
  ELEVATED HAIL AND THUNDERSTORM WIND RISK.
  ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER RISK.
  LIMITED TORNADO RISK.

DISCUSSION...

  AN ELEVATED FIRE DANGER WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE MID EVENING
  FOR AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF A BAXTER SPRINGS KANSAS TO NEVADA
  MISSOURI LINE. RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES WILL BE SLOWLY
  INCREASING THIS EVENING WHILE SOUTHWEST WINDS DECREASE AND SHIFT
  TO THE NORTHWEST OVERNIGHT.

  STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS MUCH OF THE MISSOURI
  OZARKS FOR THE REST OF TONIGHT...PARTICULARLY ALONG AND
  SOUTHEAST OF A LINE FROM JOPLIN TO STOCKTON TO WARSAW MISSOURI.
  A STRONG CAP THAT HAS BEEN IN PLACE FOR MUCH OF THE DAY IS
  FINALLY BREAKING DOWN AS A DRY LINE MOVES INTO THE AREA.
  THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEGUN TO DEVELOP IN A SCATTERED FASHION ALONG
  THIS DRYLINE...AND WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN NUMBER AND
  INTENSITY THIS EVENING. THESE STORMS WILL EVENTUALLY MERGE INTO
  LINE SEGMENTS LATE THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. A COLD
  FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE AREA OVERNIGHT AND THIS WILL ALLOW THE
  LINE OF STORMS TO MOVE FROM WEST TO EAST WITH TIME...CLEARING THE
  EASTERN OZARKS BY DAYBREAK MONDAY.

  THE PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER RISKS WITH THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE
  LARGE HAIL TO THE SIZE OF HALF DOLLARS AND DAMAGING WIND GUSTS
  TO 60 MPH. DUE TO STRONG LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR A TORNADO CANNOT
  BE RULED OUT...HOWEVER THE OVERALL RISK FOR TORNADOES IS
  LIMITED AT THIS TIME.

  ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT CAN TRAIN OVER THE SAME AREAS REPEATEDLY
  WILL RESULT IN A LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING RISK.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

  LOW HUMIDITY AND MODERATELY GUSTY WINDS MAY PRODUCE AN ELEVATED
  FIRE DANGER MONDAY IN SOME AREAS.

  ANOTHER STORM SYSTEM WILL AFFECT THE REGION DURING THE MIDDLE
  TO END OF NEXT WEEK AND WILL BRING ADDITIONAL CHANCES FOR
  THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA...INCLUDING A LIMITED THREAT FOR
  STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS ON THURSDAY.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

  SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL BE NEEDED ALONG AND WEST OF THE
  INTERSTATE 44 CORRIDOR THROUGH THE LATE EVENING HOURS. WITH
  SPOTTER ACTIVATION LIKELY NEEDED SOUTHEAST OF THE INTERSTATE 44
  CORRIDOR INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.
