AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
705 AM CDT Sat Aug 3 2013

.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
Issued AT 705 AM CDT SAT AUG 3 2013

MAIN LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS HAS MOVED SOUTH INTO NORTHERN ARKANSAS.
TRAILING THIS LINE IS A RATHER EXTENSIVE

Main line of thunderstorms has moved south into northern Arkansas.
Trailing this line is a rather extensive area of stratiform rain,
with embedded thunderstorms. To the north, across central
Missouri, additional thunderstorms are developing along a low
level boundary (seen from the surface to ~850mb) that just north
of the Highway 54 corridor.

Wet weather will continue this morning. The risk for severe has
come down given that our atmosphere is pretty worked over and our
instability budget has been spent. Should see an overall decrease
in coverage and intensity of rain as the morning progresses,
though will need to continue to monitor the activity along the
boundary across central Missouri, as it could linger a bit longer
if it can stay favorably oriented to the low level winds.

Flash flood risk will persist this morning. A widespread 1" plus
of rainfall has occurred almost area wide. Within this area of
rainfall, there are several pockets of higher amounts. Radar
indicates that as much as 4 to 7 inches of rain has fallen in
portions of northern Cedar/southern St. Clair counties, much of
Webster and Wright counties, and southeastern portions of Laclede
county. With daylight, more and more reports of flooding are
coming in from these areas.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
ISSUED AT 255 AM CDT SAT AUG 3 2013

Showers and thunderstorms continued to increase across the area
into early this morning with the help of a low level jet nosing
into the Ozarks. The risk for severe weather will be limited the
remainder of the morning...but wind gusts of 40 to 45 mph may
accompany the outflow boundary associated with the storms.
Torrential rainfall rates associated with the storms will lead to
areas of flash flooding into the morning. The convection will
gradually taper off during the morning hours.

A weak front or wind shift will sag southward into southern
Missouri today. Weak surface convergence along this boundary coupled
with moderate instability may support isolated to scattered
thunderstorm development from mid afternoon into the evening.

A Flash Flood Watch remains in effect today.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday THROUGH Friday)
ISSUED AT 255 AM CDT SAT AUG 3 2013

Clusters of convection will increase across the Plains tonight
and spread toward the Ozarks overnight with the aid of a broad low
level jet and region of isentropic upglide. This activity will
continue to spread eastward into the region Sunday morning and may
linger much of the day. Severe weather is not expected Sunday with
limited instability but the potential for heavy rainfall and
flooding will exist. Flash Flood Watch remains in effect through
Sunday night. The clouds and rainfall will result in a
cooler day.

Not much change is expected into next week as our region remains
within a belt of westerlies on the northern periphery of an upper
ridge anchored over the southwestern U.S.

This will maintain periodic chances of showers and thunderstorms
with the continued risk for heavy rainfall. There will be
considerable breaks between periods of precipitation. Otherwise
seasonably warm and humid weather will persist.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Sunday Morning)
ISSUED AT 705 AM CDT SAT AUG 3 2013

Biggest forecast challenge for the next 3 to 6 hours will be
rainfall and occasional restrictions to visibility and ceilings
(mainly at SGF and BBG). Light to moderate rainfall will slowly
taper off from north to south, with visibility improving and
ceilings lifting to to VFR by late morning. VFR will continue for
the remainder of the day. The forecast for tonight is uncertain.
Another round of thunderstorms is possible. However, the location
and timing of this round of storms is uncertain. For now, a
mention of rain has been included for overnight tonight.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 255 AM CDT SAT AUG 3 2013

Multiple rounds of showers and thunderstorms will persist this
weekend into early next week and possibly beyond. Rainfall
through the weekend across the region will generally range from 1 to
3 inches with locally higher amounts where storms train. This
heavy rain combined with moist soils will result in a considerable
flash flood risk for the next several days. A Flash Flood Watch
continues through Monday morning. In addition to the flash flood
risk many area rivers will likely rise to or above flood stage at
some point in the next several days.
