AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 1214 AM CDT FRI JUN 28 2013 .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY) ISSUED AT 330 PM CDT THU JUN 27 2013 WARM AND HUMID CONDITIONS ARE OCCURRING ACROSS THE REGION THIS AFTERNOON. TEMPERATURES ARE GENERALLY IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 90S WITH HEAT INDEX VALUES IN THE 100 TO 109 RANGE...WITH THE HIGHEST READINGS OCCURRING ALONG AND SOUTHWEST OF AN OSCEOLA TO SPRINGFIELD TO ALTON MISSOURI LINE. THESE CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE REMINDER OF THE AFTERNOON HOURS INTO EARLY THIS EVENING. WILL KEEP THE HEAT ADVISORY GOING AS IS UNTIL 8 PM FOR THESE LOCATIONS. AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY THAT DEVELOPED WITH CONVECTION ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI THIS MORNING IS CURRENTLY PUSHING SOUTH ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. THE AREA REMAINS FAIRLY CAPPED DUE TO A WARM AIRMASS...AND VERY LITTLE DEVELOPMENT HAS OCCURRED ON THIS BOUNDARY. A FEW ISOLATED STORMS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DEVELOP ACROSS CENTRAL MISSOURI AND MAY REMAIN POSSIBLE ACROSS THE EASTERN OZARKS THIS AFTERNOON AS THE OUTFLOW PUSHES SOUTH...THOUGH MOST LOCATIONS SHOULD REMAIN DRY. A SURFACE FRONT IS CURRENTLY LOCATED ACROSS NORTHERN AND WESTERN KANSAS THIS AFTERNOON AND STORMS ARE BEGINNING TO DEVELOP ON THIS BOUNDARY. THIS TREND WILL CONTINUE THIS AFTERNOON AND THESE STORMS WILL FORM INTO A LINE LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL ACCELERATE TO THE SOUTHEAST TOWARDS THE AREA THIS EVENING...EXITING THE AREA OVERNIGHT. LOCATIONS WITH THE BETTER POTENTIAL TO BE AFFECTED BY THIS ACTIVITY WILL BE FARTHER TO THE WEST...GENERALLY ALONG AND WEST OF HIGHWAY 65. THERE ARE MORE QUESTIONS HOW FAR EAST OF HIGHWAY 65 THIS ACTIVITY CAN MAKE IT....THOUGH THUNDERSTORMS ARE STILL POSSIBLE EAST OF HIGHWAY 65 THIS EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. THE FORCING ALONG THE FRONT/COLD POOL THAT DEVELOPS FROM THE STORMS ACROSS KANSAS SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO BREAK THE CAP ACROSS THE AREA AND WITH STRONG THETA-E DIFFERENCE AND A VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL RESULT IN A STRONG DAMAGING WIND RISK WITH WINDS IN EXCESS OF 70 TO 80 MPH LIKELY ALONG THIS LINE WITH THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR WINDS THAT STRONG BEING WEST OF INTERSTATE 49. THERE IS A HAIL RISK...BUT WITH THESE STORMS EXPECTED TO BE LINEAR IN NATURE THIS POTENTIAL IS MORE LIMITED WITH GENERALLY UP TO QUARTERS POSSIBLE. TIMING OF THIS AREA WILL GENERALLY BE BETWEEN 7 AND 10 PM ALONG AND WEST OF THE INTERSTATE 49 CORRIDOR AND BETWEEN 8 AND MIDNIGHT WEST OF HIGHWAY 65. THERE ARE MORE QUESTIONS IF THIS LINE OF STORMS CAN MAKE IT EAST OF HIGHWAY 65...AND WILL HAVE TO SEE EXACTLY WHERE THIS LINE SETS UP ACROSS KANSAS. FRIDAY SHOULD GENERALLY BE DRY...THOUGH AN ISOLATED AFTERNOON THUNDERSTORM MAY BE POSSIBLE IF ENOUGH INSTABILITY CAN DEVELOP... THOUGH THIS POTENTIAL LOOKS REALLY LIMITED. TEMPERATURES WILL BE COOLER ON FRIDAY THAN TODAY...BUT HIGHS WILL STILL TOP OUT IN THE UPPER 80S TO THE LOWER 90S. .LONG TERM...(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 330 PM CDT THU JUN 27 2013 AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL BUILD SOUTHWEST OUT OF THE GREAT LAKES REGION OVER THE CENTRAL U.S. THIS WEEKEND THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL PUSH THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE AND HOT AND MUGGY CONDITIONS BACK TO THE WEST AND ALLOW A COOLER AIRMASS TO SPREAD INTO THE REGION. HIGHS THIS WEEKEND THROUGH NEXT WEEK WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE UPPER 70S TO THE MIDDLE 80S EACH AFTERNOON AS LOWS DROP INTO THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 60S EACH NIGHT. THERE COULD BE PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AT TIMES AS THE UPPER LEVEL LOW REMAINS OVER THE REGION BUT NO SEVERE WEATHER OR WASH OUT IS EXPECTED. && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z FRIDAY NIGHT) ISSUED AT 1204 AM CDT FRI JUN 28 2013 CONVECTION THAT WAS DEVELOPING DURING THE EVENING OVER EASTERN KANSAS IS FINALLY ON THE MOVE. ANTICIPATE CONVECTION WITHIN THE AERODROME AREAS THROUGH ABOUT 10-11Z. COULD SEE SOME STRONG WINDS AND OCCASIONAL MVFR CONDITIONS AS THE STORMS MOVE ACROSS THE AERODROMES. ONCE THE CONVECTION PASSES...VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE TAF FORECAST PERIOD. WINDS WILL BECOME GUSTY DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS BUT DIMINISH TOWARDS 00Z. && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MO...NONE. KS...NONE. && SHORT TERM...WISE LONG TERM...WISE AVIATION...GAEDE
