AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1051 PM CDT THU SEP 20 2012

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...

.UPDATE...
/ISSUED 1045 PM CDT THU SEP 20 2012/

WE CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE POTENTIAL OF THUNDERSTORMS OVERNIGHT
FROM FAR SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS INTO THE MISSOURI OZARKS. AT LATE
EVENING...A SURFACE FRONT HAD STALLED FROM NORTHERN OKLAHOMA INTO
NORTHERN ARKANSAS. PROFILER AND VAD WIND DATA INDICATED THE 850 MB
FRONT STRETCHED FROM NEAR WICHITA TO JUST NORTH OF TULSA THEN INTO
NORTHERN ARKANSAS. MOISTURE WAS POOLING IN THE 850-700 MB LAYER
ALONG AND SOUTH OF THIS AXIS.

THE LOW LEVEL JET WILL STRENGTHEN DURING THE NIGHT WITH THE OZARKS
POSITIONED ON THE NOSE OF THIS JET OVERNIGHT. STRONG MOISTURE AND
WARM AIR ADVECTION WILL RESULT IN DESTABILIZATION ABOVE THE BOUNDARY
LAYER. IT MAY TAKE AWHILE TO SUFFICIENTLY MOISTEN THE LOWER
ATMOSPHERE COLUMN BUT I DO EXPECT THIS WILL HAPPEN WITH TIME.
EXPECT ISOLATED CONVECTION TO DEVELOP SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH
A GRADUAL INCREASE OVERNIGHT. AMPLE DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF 40 TO 50
KTS AND STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES WILL SUPPORT THE POTENTIAL OF
ROBUST UPDRAFTS AND THE POSSIBILITY OF HAIL IN THE STRONGER STORMS.
THE RISK OF A SEVERE STORM WITH LARGE HAIL IS LIMITED.

OVERALL THE FORECAST HAS CHANGED LITTLE WITH THE EXPECTATION OF
SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVERNIGHT.

FOSTER

&&

.DISCUSSION...

MAIN FOCUS IN THIS FORECAST PACKAGE WILL BE ON SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORMS POTENTIAL LATE THIS EVENING INTO FRIDAY EVENING.
THEN ATTENTION TURNS TO COOL AND DRY CONDITIONS THIS WEEKEND.

A WEAK SURFACE COLD FRONT HAS SAGGED SOUTH THROUGH THE AREA TODAY
AND IS NOW LOCATED ACROSS NORTHERN ARKANSAS THIS AFTERNOON. NORTHERLY
WINDS ARE OCCURRING BEHIND THE FRONT WHICH IS HELPING TO PULL
DRIER AIR INTO THE REGION. TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO WARM INTO
THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S THIS AFTERNOON.

THE FRONT WILL THEN LIFT BACK TO THE NORTH AS A WARM FRONT LATE
THIS EVENING INTO FRIDAY MORNING. LOW LEVEL WARM AIR ADVECTION
ALONG WITH A STRONG LOW LEVEL JET WILL SPREAD NORTH INTO THE
REGION TONIGHT...RESULTING IN IN STRONG FORCING ALONG THE FRONT
LATE THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG AND BEHIND THE WARM
FRONT AS IT LIFTS TO THE NORTH. THERE WILL BE SOME LOW LEVEL DRY
AIR THAT WILL HAVE TO BE OVERCOME...BUT GIVEN THE FORCING THINK
IT WILL NOT TAKE LONG FOR PRECIPITATION TO MAKE IT TO THE GROUND
ONCE IT BEGINS. THINK THERE SHOULD BE DECENT COVERAGE IN THIS
ACTIVITY AS IT DEVELOPS THEN PUSHES ACROSS THE AREA. INSTABILITY
WILL BE MORE LIMITED AS MOISTURE RETURN WILL BE SOMEWHAT
LIMITED...THOUGH WITH THE FORCING AND STRONG WIND SHEAR SOME HAIL
WILL STILL BE POSSIBLE IN A FEW OF THE STRONGER STORMS. THIS
ACTIVITY MAY LINGER ACROSS THE EASTERN OZARKS FRIDAY MORNING
BEFORE PUSHING OFF TO THE EAST OF THE AREA. TEMPERATURES SHOULD
WARM INTO THE 80S AREA-WIDE ON FRIDAY AS BREEZY AND GUSTY
SOUTHERLY WINDS USHER IN THE SLIGHTLY WARMER CONDITIONS.

A COLD FRONT AND UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL THEN SWEEP THROUGH THE
REGION FRIDAY AFTERNOON INTO FRIDAY EVENING. THERE COULD BE
ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP ON THE COLD
FRONT THE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING HOURS FRIDAY...BUT WIDESPREAD
SEVERE WEATHER IS NOT EXPECTED AT THIS TIME AS INSTABILITY SHOULD
BE LIMITED. WINDS WILL SWING AROUND TO THE NORTH NORTHWEST BEHIND
THE FRONT AND COULD BE GUSTY ON SATURDAY AS A MUCH COOLER AIRMASS
SPREADS SOUTH INTO THE AREA. HIGHS ON SATURDAY ARE EXPECTED TO
WARM INTO THE LOWER 70S WITH HIGHS ON SUNDAY ONLY EXPECTED TO WARM
INTO THE 60S. LOWS SATURDAY NIGHT WILL COOL WELL INTO THE 40S AREA
WIDE WITH UPPER 30S POSSIBLE ACROSS SOME LOCATIONS.

AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL THEN DROP
INTO THE AREA DURING THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK...BRINGING ADDITIONAL
CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA.

WISE

&&

.AVIATION...
/ISSUED 1050 PM CDT THU SEP 20 2012/

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AND
MOVE ACROSS THE REGION OVERNIGHT IN RESPONSE TO A STRONG LOW
LEVEL JET. THIS LOW LEVEL JET WILL ALSO PRODUCE LOW LEVEL WIND
SHEAR AT ALL AREA TERMINALS OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY FRIDAY. LOCALIZED
AREAS OF MVFR CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED WHERE STORMS DEVELOP.
OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL. GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS
FRIDAY MORNING WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST FRIDAY AFTERNOON AS A
COLD FRONT MOVES ACROSS THE REGION.

1106 PM CDT THU SEP 20 2012

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

.DAY ONE...TONIGHT.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...

  LIMITED HAIL RISK.
  LIMITED LIGHTNING RISK.

DISCUSSION...

  SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP OVERNIGHT FROM EXTREME
  SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS INTO THE MISSOURI OZARKS. THE STORMS WILL
  BECOME MORE NUMEROUS ACROSS THE MISSOURI OZARKS AFTER 3 AM AS A
  WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA. THE PRIMARY RISK
  FROM THESE STORMS WILL BE CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING...BUT THE
  STRONGER STORMS MAY PRODUCE HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF NICKELS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

  A FEW THUNDERSTORMS MAY LINGER ACROSS THE EASTERN MISSOURI
  OZARKS EARLY FRIDAY MORNING...WITH THE MAIN THREAT AGAIN
  BEING OCCASIONAL LIGHTNING STRIKES. ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS
  WILL BE POSSIBLE FRIDAY AFTERNOON INTO EARLY FRIDAY EVENING AS A
  COLD FRONT MOVES SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE OUTLOOK AREA. AT THIS
  TIME...IT APPEARS THAT INSTABILITY WILL BE LIMITED AND SEVERE
  THUNDERSTORMS ARE NOT EXPECTED.

  LOCALLY ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP FRIDAY
  AFTERNOON ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS AS WINDS
  INCREASE BEHIND A PASSING COLD FRONT. ELEVATED FIRE WEATHER
  CONDITIONS WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE
  OUTLOOK AREA ON SATURDAY AS WINDS INCREASE OUT OF THE NORTH.

  THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE AGAIN AROUND THE MIDDLE OF NEXT
  WEEK.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

  SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL NOT BE NEEDED THROUGH TONIGHT.
