AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1051 PM CDT SUN APR 29 2012

...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION...

.UPDATE...
/ISSUED 1051 PM CDT SUN APR 29 2012/

POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLASH FLOOD SITUATION
UNFOLDING ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE OUTLOOK AREA.

WAVY...STATIONARY SURFACE BOUNDARY EXTENDS FROM NEAR ROLLA TO JUST
NORTH OF NEVADA AND FORT SCOTT. OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS...LARGE
SCALE LIFT HAS INCREASE AND CONVECTION ALONG AND SOUTH OF THIS
BOUNDARY HAS BLOSSOMED. COMBINATION OF MULTICELL CLUSTERS AND A
FEW EMBEDDED SUPERCELLS HAVE BEEN OBSERVED TO THIS POINT.
SUPERCELL STRUCTURES AND ANY BOWING SEGMENTS THAT CAN DEVELOP WILL
POSE OUR MAIN SEVERE WEATHER THREAT...WITH MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL
AND LOCALIZED DAMAGING WIND GUSTS THE PRIMARY CONCERN. THE LOW
LEVEL JET HAS RAMPED UP...RESULTING IN A LIMITED TORNADO RISK...
MAINLY ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND ADJACENT COUNTIES IN
MISSOURI FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. REALLY CANNOT RULE OUT A
FEW SEVERE CELLS FROM TIME TO TIME AT ANY POINT FOR THE REST OF
TONIGHT. AS THE LOW LEVEL JET VEERS THE CURRENT AXIS OF CONVECTION
WILL TEND TO SHIFT TO THE SOUTH WITH NEW CELL DEVELOPMENT POSSIBLE
ON THE SOUTHEASTERN FLANK CLOSER TO THE I-44 CORRIDOR. MARGINALLY
SEVERE HAIL/LOCALIZED DAMAGING WIND WILL REMAIN THE PRIMARY RISKS.

OF LARGER CONCERN WILL BE HEAVY RAINFALL PRODUCTION OVERNIGHT.
AT THE SURFACE...DEWPOINT POOLING IS BEING OBSERVED. MEANWHILE A 30
TO 40 KT LOW LEVEL JET IS PROVIDING A STRONG INFLUX OF LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AROUND 1.8 INCHES HAVE BEEN
IDENTIFIED BY RUC INITIALIZATIONS ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE SURFACE
BOUNDARY...WHICH IS IN THE 99TH PERCENTILE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.
IN ADDITION...TRADITIONAL STORM MOTION VECTORS ARE RATHER LIGHT
NEAR THE BOUNDARY AND RECENT RUC PROGS DO NOT CHANGE THIS FOR THE
NEXT 3 TO 6 HOURS. AS A RESULT...THE CURRENT ORIENTATION OF
CONVECTION IS NOT EXPECTED TO CHANGE VERY MUCH OVER THE NEXT 3 TO
6 HOURS.

THUNDERSTORM TRAINING AND EFFICIENT HEAVY RAINFALL PRODUCTION WILL
RESULT IN A SIGNIFICANT RISK OF FLASH FLOODING ACROSS PORTIONS OF
CRAWFORD AND BOURBON COUNTIES IN KANSAS AS WELL AS BARTON...
VERNON...CEDAR AND ST. CLAIR COUNTIES IN MISSOURI OVER THE NEXT
2 TO 4 HOURS. WIDESPREAD RAINFALL OF TWO TO FIVE INCHES IS
EXPECTED...WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS UPWARD OF SEVEN INCHES
POSSIBLE. THE RISK FOR HEAVY RAIN AND FLASH FLOODING IN ADJACENT
COUNTIES WILL HAVE TO BE MONITORED VERY CLOSELY. AS MENTIONED
ABOVE...A VEERING LOW LEVEL JET WILL ALLOW THE AXIS OF CONVECTION
TO SHIFT TO THE SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST AFTER (ROUGHLY) 09Z...SO
TRAINING SHOULD LESSEN WITH TIME AND RAINFALL WILL BEGIN TO AFFECT
AREAS THAT HAVE NOT SEEN MUCH IN THE WAY OF RAIN THE PAST FEW DAYS.

GAGAN

.DISCUSSION...
/ISSUED 335 PM CDT SUN APR 29 2012/

THE ACTIVE WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INTO MONDAY AND AT LEAST PART OF
TUESDAY AS THE EXISTING BOUNDARY REMAINS STALLED ACROSS THE AREA
UNDERNEATH A BROAD SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT.

PINPOINTING THE HIGHEST CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BE CHALLENGING BUT THE ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY TEND FOCUS ALONG AND
NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY AS IT INTERACTS WITH THE NIGHT TIME LOW
LEVEL JET.

THE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER APPEARS TO BE LIMITED AT BEST MONDAY
AND TUESDAY AND WILL BE DEPENDENT ON THE EXTENT OF DESTABILIZATION
THAT CAN OCCUR. MULTIPLE ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
LEAD TO AN INCREASING RISK OF FLASH FLOODING ESPECIALLY FROM
SOUTHEAST KANSAS INTO SOUTHWEST AND CENTRAL MISSOURI ALONG AND
NORTH OF THE BOUNDARY WHERE A FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED.

WARMER TEMPERATURES AND A DRYING TREND IS IN STORE FROM MID TO
LATE WEEK AS UPPER LEVEL RIDGING GRADUALLY DEVELOPS.

FOSTER

&&

.AVIATION...

SHOWERS...THUNDERSTORMS...AND ASSOCIATED LOWERED CEILINGS WILL
CONTINUE TO BE THE PRIMARY IMPACT TO AVIATION OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS. A FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT HAS LINGERED OVER THE REGION FOR
THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS WILL SLOWLY MOVE TO THE EAST IN RESPONSE TO
AN APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE. PRECIPITATION CHANCES
WILL GRADUALLY INCREASE OVERNIGHT AND INTO TOMORROW WITH CHANCES
FOR MVFR...POSSIBLY SOME IFR CONDITIONS...EARLY TOMORROW. THE
FORECAST CONFIDENCE FOR TIMING OF THUNDERSTORMS AND LOWERED
CEILINGS IS QUITE LOW IN THIS TYPE OF SLOW MOVING FRONTAL
PATTERN.
