AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
353 PM CDT THU AUG 2 2012
.DISCUSSION...
/ISSUED 340 PM CDT THU AUG 2 2012/
THE REMNANTS OF A MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE VORT WAS TRACKING FROM
EASTERN MISSOURI INTO ILLINOIS THIS AFTERNOON RESULTING IN
CONSIDERABLE CLOUD COVER FROM CENTRAL INTO SOUTHEASTERN MISSOURI.
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT SO FAR THIS AFTERNOON HAS BEEN CONFINED TO
THE EAST IN CLOSER PROXIMITY OF THIS FEATURE. WILL BE MONITORING
FOR POTENTIAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THE REMAINDER OF THE
AFTERNOON AS THE VORT SLIDES SOUTHEAST AND DRAGS A WEAK BOUNDARY
SOUTH INTO THE AREA. SURFACE CONVERGENCE ALONG THIS FEATURE MAY
INITIATE STORM DEVELOPMENT BUT WARMING MID LEVEL TEMPERATURES WILL
BE AN INHIBITOR. IF STORMS CAN DEVELOP...A FEW COULD BE SEVERE
GIVEN THE DEGREE OF INSTABILITY AND INVERTED V LOWER ATMOSPHERIC
PROFILE.
THE HEAT WILL GO ON AS WE END THIS WEEK AND INTO THE START OF THE
WEEKEND AS OUR REGION REMAINS ON THE NORTHEASTERN PERIPHERY OF THE
SUB-TROPICAL RIDGE. IT APPEARS TO BE A LESSER CHANCE OF OVERNIGHT
CONVECTION AND SUBSEQUENTLY LESS CLOUD COVER ON FRIDAY. ALSO EXPECT
A STRENGTHENING SOUTHERLY FLOW AND 850 MB TEMPERATURES IN THE
MIDDLE TO UPPER 20S. THE RESULT WILL BE TRIPLE DIGIT HEAT ACROSS
MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH SOME AREAS OF EXTREME SOUTHEASTERN
KANSAS AND FAR SOUTHWEST MISSOURI EXCEEDING 105.
WITH THIS IN MIND COUNTIES NEAR THE OKLAHOMA BORDER HAVE BEEN
UPGRADED TO AN EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING WHERE TEMPERATURES THE PAST
FEW DAYS HAVE BEEN CLIMBING TO OR ABOVE 105. THE HEAT ADVISORY HAS
BEEN EXPANDED TO THE NORTH TO ACCOUNT FOR THE HOTTER TEMPERATURES
ON FRIDAY. PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN OZARKS HAVE BEEN LEFT OUT OF
THE ADVISORY AT THIS TIME SINCE THAT AREA HAS SEEN SOME RELIEF THE
PAST COUPLE OF DAYS.
THE HOT TEMPERATURES...LOW AFTERNOON HUMIDITIES AND INCREASE IN
SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE THE ALREADY ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER
RISK. A SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT HAS BEEN ISSUED TO HIGHLIGHT
THIS RISK.
A SEASONABLY STRONG UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE WILL PUSH INTO THE
NORTHERN PLAINS THIS WEEKEND WITH THE ASSOCIATED FRONT SAGGING
SOUTH INTO THE REGION. ONE MORE VERY HOT DAY IS EXPECTED SATURDAY
AHEAD OF THIS FRONT BUT WILL WAIT TO ISSUE HEAT HEADLINES ON LATER
SHIFTS ONCE WE ARE MORE CONFIDENT ON PRECIPITATION CHANCES AND
CLOUD COVER. EXPECT ISOLATED TO SCATTERED CONVECTION ALONG THE
FRONT AS IT MOVES INTO THE AREA SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT.
STILL UNCERTAIN ABOUT THE COVERAGE OF PRECIPITATION AS THE PRIMARY
SYNOPTIC SCALE SUPPORT REMAINS TO THE NORTH AND WE MAY DEALING
WITH A CAPPING INVERSION ALOFT.
THE FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH OF THE AREA SUNDAY ALLOWING A MORE
COMFORTABLE AIR MASS TO SPREAD INTO THE AREA. WHILE TEMPERATURES
WILL BE A COOLER SUNDAY INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK THEY WILL STILL BE
NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL. THE CENTER OF THE UPPER RIDGE IS
PROGGED TO REMAIN TO THE WEST NEXT WEEK KEEPING TEMPERATURES A BIT
COOLER. CONVECTIVE COMPLEXES MAY ALSO FORM ON THE PERIPHERY OF
THE UPPER RIDGE AND PUSH INTO THE REGION...BUT THE TIMING AND
PLACEMENT OF THIS DEVELOPMENT REMAINS HIGHLY UNCERTAIN AT THIS
TIME.

.AVIATION...
FOR THE 18Z TAFS...
MAIN CONCERNS OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS WILL BE CHANCES FOR TSRA THIS
AFTERNOON AND LLWS TONIGHT. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED TSRA WILL BE
POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING HOURS. THE BEST CHANCES
WILL BE AT BBG...WHERE VCTS HAS BEEN INDICATED IN THE TAF.
PROBABILITIES ARE TOO LOW AT SGF AND JLN FOR INCLUSION AT THIS
TIME...BUT TSRA WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE. IF TSRA DOES MOVE OVER A
TERMINAL...BRIEF PERIODS OF MVFR AND PERHAPS IFR WILL BE
POSSIBLE...ALONG WITH STRONG WIND GUSTS.
LATER TONIGHT...LLWS IS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AT ALL TERMINALS...AND
WILL PERSIST THROUGH MID MORNING FRIDAY.
