AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
828 PM CDT FRI APR 13 2012

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...

.UPDATE...

THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO INCREASE IN AREAL COVERAGE THIS EVENING
AS A LOW LEVEL JET STRENGTHENS AND NOSES INTO THE REGION. WE HAVE
HAD ONE SUPERCELL DEVELOP AND TRACK ACROSS NORTHERN LAWRENCE
COUNTY. THIS CELL HAS PUT DOWN HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF TENNIS
BALLS. LARGE HAIL OF THIS MAGNITUDE WILL BE THE EXCEPTION RATHER
THAN THE RULE DUE TO THE EXPECTED WIDESPREAD COVERAGE OF STORMS.
EVEN AS THIS DISCUSSION IS BEING WRITTEN...A BAND OF CONVECTION IS
BEGINNING TO OVERTAKE THE SUPERCELL AND SHOULD RESULT IN A
WEAKENING TREND.

WITH THAT BEING SAID...ENOUGH INSTABILITY AND LARGE SCALE SHEAR
WILL REMAIN PRESENT OVERNIGHT FOR A LARGE HAIL THREAT. THINK HALF
DOLLARS WILL BE THE HIGH END FOR HAIL SIZE ONCE THIS INITIAL
SUPERCELL BEGINS TO WEAKEN. WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR ANY LINE
SEGMENTS FOR STRAIGHT LINE WIND POTENTIAL LATER TONIGHT. UP TO
THIS POINT...WIND REPORTS HAVE BEEN LACKING DUE TO POOR LOW LEVEL
THETA-E DIFFERENTIALS. THIS HAS ALSO LIMITED TORNADO POTENTIAL AS
STORMS HAVE BEEN VERY OUTFLOW DEFICIENT.

IT STILL APPEARS THAT THE GREATEST COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORMS
TONIGHT WILL BE ALONG AND NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE 44 CORRIDOR.
THIS IS WHERE THE GREATEST THETA-E ADVECTION AND MOISTURE
TRANSPORT WILL PERSIST. WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH HYDRO ACROSS THIS
AREA GIVEN THE EXPECTED THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE.

SCHAUMANN

.DISCUSSION...

THE MAIN FORECAST FOCUS WILL BE THE STRONG STORM SYSTEM THAT WILL
IMPACT THE REGION THROUGH THIS WEEKEND. SEVERE WEATHER AND
FLOODING POTENTIAL HIGHLIGHTED THE CONCERNS THROUGH SUNDAY.

CURRENTLY...WATER VAPOR IMAGERY INDICATES A BROAD UPPER LEVEL LOW
HAS JUST ABOUT MADE IT ONSHORE IN CALIFORNIA. AT THE
SURFACE...WEAK LOW PRESSURE WAS JUST BEGINNING TO DEVELOP ACROSS
EASTERN COLORADO...WITH A SECOND LOW ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN NEW
MEXICO. A DRY LINE WAS BEGINNING TO SHARPEN UP ACROSS WESTERN
TEXAS...WITH A STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDING FROM WEST
TEXAS INTO CENTRAL KANSAS. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WERE ALREADY
BEGINNING TO DEVELOP JUST TO THE EAST OF THAT FRONTAL BOUNDARY AS
A LOW LEVEL JET WAS REFOCUSING OUT ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS.

AS WE HEAD INTO TONIGHT...THAT LOW LEVEL JET WILL STRENGTHEN AND
VEER TOWARDS SOUTHWEST MISSOURI. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
THEREFORE INCREASE IN AREAL COVERAGE THIS EVENING AND SHIFT INTO
THE OZARKS. CURRENT THINKING IS THAT THE GREATEST COVERAGE AS WE
HEAD INTO THIS EVENING AND THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD WILL BE ALONG AND
NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE. ALTHOUGH THE HEAVIEST RAINFALL IS
EXPECTED ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS AND WEST CENTRAL
MISSOURI...WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH AREAS A BIT FURTHER EAST THAT SAW
HEAVY RAINFALL THIS MORNING. AFTER COORDINATING WITH SURROUNDING
OFFICES...WE DECIDED AGAINST A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR NOW.

MEANWHILE...INSTABILITY AND LARGE SCALE SHEAR WILL BEGIN TO
INCREASE AFTER 00Z. THINK THERE WILL BE A LARGE HAIL RISK FOR
MUCH OF TONIGHT AS MID AND UPPER LEVEL WESTERLIES INCREASE. THE
WIND THREAT WILL BE CONDITIONAL ON ANY LINE SEGMENTS THAT COME IN
FROM KANSAS AND OKLAHOMA. ALTHOUGH COLD POOL POTENTIAL IS NOT ALL
THAT GREAT...THERE DOES APPEAR TO BE A SIGNAL FOR SHEAR/COLD POOL
BALANCE POTENTIAL. THUS...HAVE MAINTAINED A WIND THREAT IN THE
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

THESE STORMS SHOULD CONTINUE TO IMPACT PORTIONS OF CENTRAL
MISSOURI EARLY SATURDAY MORNING...BEFORE SHIFTING OUT OF THE AREA
BY EARLY AFTERNOON. IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE THAT MANY AREAS REMAIN
DRY FOR MUCH OF SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY EVENING. THE MAIN ISSUE ON
SATURDAY MAY ACTUALLY BE NON THUNDERSTORMS WINDS. STRONG AND GUSTY
SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL DEVELOP BY MID TO LATE MORNING AS LOW
PRESSURE CONTINUES TO TAKE SHAPE ACROSS EASTERN COLORADO.

SEVERE STORMS ARE THEN EXPECTED TO ERUPT ACROSS CENTRAL
KANSAS/OKLAHOMA BY EARLY SATURDAY EVENING AS HEIGHT FALLS
OVERSPREAD THE DRY LINE. THIS DRY LINE WILL SLOWLY MOVE EAST
SATURDAY NIGHT...AND WILL LIKELY APPROACH THE KANSAS/MISSOURI
STATE LINE AROUND SUNRISE. OUR INITIAL CONCERNS FOR LATE SATURDAY
NIGHT AND EARLY SUNDAY MORNING WILL BE THE FATE OF THE CONVECTION
THAT DEVELOPS TO OUR TO WEST. ALTHOUGH LARGE SCALE SHEAR WILL BE
PLENTIFUL...INSTABILITY WILL BE WANING AS WE HEAD TOWARDS SUNRISE
ON SUNDAY. DID MAINTAIN A THREAT FOR SOME LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING
WINDS ACROSS FAR WESTERN MISSOURI AND SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS TO COVER
THE REMNANTS OF THE ACTIVITY COMING IN FROM THE WEST.

THE GREATER SEVERE THREAT MAY UNFOLD FROM SUNDAY AFTERNOON INTO
SUNDAY EVENING AS THAT DRY LINE SLOWLY MARCHES EAST ACROSS THE
AREA. THE BIGGEST QUESTION REGARDING SEVERE POTENTIAL REMAINS THE
AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY THAT WILL BE PRESENT AHEAD OF THE DRY LINE.
MODELS CONTINUE TO BE ON THE LOW SIDE WITH THE INSTABILITY...BUT
THIS MAY BE UNDERDONE IF CONVECTION COMING IN FROM THE WEST DOES
NOT MATERIALIZE OR FIZZLES OUT. SUPERCELL THUNDERSTORMS WOULD BE A
DISTINCT POSSIBILITY IF THE INSTABILITY MATERIALIZES AS STORM
MOTIONS WOULD CARRY THESE CELLS OFF THE DRY LINE. NON THUNDERSTORM
WINDS WILL ALSO BE A CONCERN ON SUNDAY AS THAT SURFACE LOW PULLS
NORTHEAST INTO THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. WE WILL ALSO HAVE TO
WATCH HYDRO AS AREAS THAT RECEIVE MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF STORMS OVER
THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS COULD SEE SOME LOCALIZED FLOODING.

STORMS WILL THEN END FROM NORTHWEST TO SOUTHEAST SUNDAY EVENING AS
A PACIFIC COLD FRONT OVERTAKES THE DRY LINE. DRY WEATHER IS
EXPECTED FOR MUCH OF NEXT WEEK AS WE SLIP INTO A WEST-NORTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT. MEDIUM RANGE MODELS DO BRING A WEAK UPPER LEVEL SHORT
WAVE TROUGH THROUGH THE REGION AROUND MIDWEEK. THIS ONE LOOKS LIKE
IT WILL BE MOISTURE STARVED. ANOTHER SHORT WAVE TROUGH IS THEN
PROGGED TO MOVE ACROSS THE REGION LATE NEXT WEEK. THIS ONE MAY
HAVE A BIT MORE MOISTURE TO WORK WITH. AFTER A BRIEF RETURN TO
NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES EARLY NEXT WEEK...TEMPERATURES WILL WARM
TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL VALUES FROM MID TO LATE WEEK.

.AVIATION...
/ISSUED 630 PM CDT FRI APR 13 2012/

FOR THE 14/0000Z KSGF/KJLN/KBBG TAFS...A CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS
WITH LOCALIZED/SCT MVFR-IFR CAT CONDITIONS OVER SW MO WILL
CONTINUE TO DRIFT ENE AND HAVE TEMPO GROUPS TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS. AS
A STRONGER LOW LEVEL JET DEVELOPS OVERNIGHT...EXPECTED ADDITIONAL
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT...PARTICULARLY AT KJLN AND KSGF. WILL
WATCH TRENDS.IT DOES LOOK LIKE THERE WILL BE A BRIEF BREAK IN THE
CONVECTION AFTER 15Z.

741 PM CDT FRI APR 13 2012

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...

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

DISCUSSION...

  THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST FOR THE REMAINDER OF TONIGHT
  ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA. THE MOST NUMEROUS STORMS WILL OCCUR
  ALONG AND NORTH OF THE INTERSTATE 44 CORRIDOR. HAIL TO THE
  SIZE OF HALF DOLLARS...FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES...AND BRIEF
  HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE THE MAIN THREATS WITH THESE STORMS.
  WIND GUSTS FROM 50 TO 60 MPH WILL WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE...
  ESPECIALLY WITH ANY LINE SEGMENTS. THE THREAT FOR SEVERE
  STORMS WILL REMAIN LIMITED ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI
  TONIGHT.

  THERE WILL ALSO BE A LIMITED THREAT FOR FLOODING FOR AREAS
  NORTH OF A TABLE ROCK LAKE TO ROUND SPRING LINE. AT THIS
  TIME...IT APPEARS THAT THE GREATEST THREAT FOR ANY FLOODING
  MAY BE IN THE LAKE OF THE OZARKS REGION OF CENTRAL MISSOURI
  DUE TO RECENT HEAVY RAINFALL OVER THE PAST 18 HOURS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

  A CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL EXIT OUT OF CENTRAL MISSOURI
  SATURDAY MORNING. THE MAIN THREAT WITH THESE STORMS WILL BE
  FREQUENT LIGHTNING STRIKES...HAIL TO THE SIZE OF NICKELS...
  AND HEAVY RAINFALL. THE HEAVY RAINFALL COULD LEAD TO SOME
  LOCALIZED FLASH FLOODING ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI.

  THUNDERSTORMS ARE THEN EXPECTED TO SPREAD INTO EXTREME
  SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS AND FAR WESTERN MISSOURI LATE SATURDAY
  NIGHT. A FEW OF THESE STORMS MAY BE STRONG TO SEVERE...WITH
  THE MAIN SEVERE THREATS BEING HAIL TO THE SIZE OF HALF
  DOLLARS AND WIND GUSTS TO 60 MPH.

  SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL THEN BE
  POSSIBLE ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT. LARGE
  HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS...AND LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE THE
  PRIMARY RISKS WITH THESE STORMS. THE THREAT FOR ANY TORNADOES
  LOOKS LIMITED AT THIS TIME...BUT THAT THREAT MAY INCREASE IF
  GREATER AMOUNTS OF INSTABILITY CAN BE REALIZED. AT THIS TIME...
  THE MAIN THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS APPEARS THAT IT WILL EXIST
  FROM SUNDAY AFTERNOON INTO SUNDAY EVENING ALONG AND EAST OF A
  LAKE OF THE OZARKS TO TABLE ROCK LAKE LINE.

  THE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL MAY ALSO LEAD TO SOME FLASH
  FLOODING ON SUNDAY ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA.

  MEANWHILE...GUSTY NON THUNDERSTORM WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
  SUNDAY. SOUTHERLY WIND GUSTS OVER 30 MPH ARE EXPECTED...
  ESPECIALLY ON SATURDAY WHERE WINDS MAY GUST TO AROUND 40 MPH AT
  TIMES. BOATERS ON AREA LAKES SHOULD USE EXTRA CAUTION.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

  SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED IN THE NEXT SIX HOURS FOR
  AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF A CAMDENTON TO CASSVILLE LINE.
