AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

656 AM CDT SUN MAR 10 2013

...UPDATE TO AVIATION...

.DISCUSSION...

LIGHT TO MODERATE RAINFALL WAS MAKING ITS WAS ACROSS THE EASTERN
OZARKS THIS MORNING AFTER BRINGING RAINFALL AMOUNTS FROM A HALF
INCH TO AN INCH TO MUCH OF THE REGION. A COLD FRONT REMAINED WEST
OF THE AREA ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS. TEMPERATURES AHEAD OF THE FRONT
ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS AND THE MISSOURI OZARKS REMAINED IN THE
MIDDLE 50S UNDER CLOUDY SKIES.

AS THE UPPER LEVEL LOW BEGINS TO MOVE EAST THIS
MORNING...PRECIPITATION SHOULD BEGIN TO FILL ACROSS OKLAHOMA AND
KANSAS AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. DESPITE THE POSITIVE TILT TO THE
UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM...THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF AN UPPER LEVEL
JET AND FRONTAL LIFT WILL ALLOW FOR SOME LIFT...WITH NAM MUCAPE
VALUES UP TO 200J/KG...AND THE POTENTIAL FOR ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS EMBEDDED IN THE RAINFALL FOR TODAY.

WITH THE UPPER LEVEL LOW TRAILING THE SURFACE SYSTEM
SLIGHTLY...WRAP AROUND AND POST FRONTAL PRECIPITATION SHOULD
CONTINUE ACROSS THE REGION INTO THIS EVENING AND VERY EARLY MONDAY
MORNING. A COLDER CANADIAN AIRMASS WILL FILTER IN BEHIND THE FRONT
AS PRECIPITATION CONTINUES TO FALL...TOUGH IT WILL BECOME LIGHTER
AS THE SYSTEM LIFTS TOWARDS THE GREAT LAKES REGION. THERMAL
PROFILES WOULD SUGGEST THAT THE PRECIPITATION MAY CHANGE OVER TO A
MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW TONIGHT AND FINNISH AS FLURRIES BEFORE THE
PRECIPITATION FINALLY MOVES OUT OF THE AREA.

THE COOL CANADIAN HIGH THAT SLIDES OVER THE REGION IN THE WAKE OF
THE COLD FRONT WILL ALLOW FOR A COOL START TOT THE WEEK WITH
TEMPERATURES ON MONDAY ONLY CLIMBING INTO THE LOWER 40S DURING THE
DAY. UPPER LEVEL NORTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL HELP TO REINFORCE THE
COOL TEMPERATURES THROUGH MUCH OF THE WEEK AND KEEP DRY CONDITIONS
IN PLACE. SOUTHERLY SURFACE FLOW WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO
SLOWLY WARM THROUGH THE WEEK WITH A SLOW CLIMB TOWARDS THE UPPER
60S FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.

THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE WESTERN CONUS WILL FLATTEN SLIGHTLY
GOING INTO NEXT WEEKEND AS A SHORTWAVES RIDES OVER THE TOP OF THE
RIDGE. THIS MAY BRING A CLIPPER TYPE SYSTEM TO THE REGION LATE
NEXT WEEKEND.

.AVIATION...

A LARGE AREA OF RAIN WILL IMPACT SOUTHERN MISSOURI THIS MORNING.
FLIGHT CATEGORIES WILL DROP INTO THE MVFR RANGE WITH HEAVIER
RAIN SHOWERS...OTHERWISE VFR WILL PREVAIL. A BREAK IN THE
WIDESPREAD RAIN IS THEN EXPECTED EARLY THIS AFTERNOON WITH A
COLD FRONT THEN PUSHING THROUGH THE AREA LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
EARLY THIS EVENING. BEHIND THE FRONT...WINDS WILL BECOME BRISK AND
GUSTY OUT OF THE NORTHWEST. CEILINGS WILL ALSO LOWER WITH AREAS OF
DRIZZLE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP. AT THIS TIME...WE FEEL THAT IFR
CEILINGS WILL DEVELOP BY LATE EVENING. THERE IS ALSO SOME CONCERN
FOR FREEZING DRIZZLE LATE TONIGHT AS TEMPERATURES FALL TO THE
FREEZING MARK. CONFIDENCE IN WHEN THE DRIZZLE WILL END AND WHEN
TEMPERATURES REACH THE FREEZING MARK IS STILL RATHER LOW...SO WE
HAVE OPTED TO INCLUDE A PROB30 GROUP FOR FREEZING DRIZZLE LATE
TONIGHT.
