AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
627 AM CDT Wed Sep 10 2014
.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 357 AM CDT WED SEP 10 2014
Low level jet enhanced precipitation remains across much of the
forecast area through the early morning hours, but expect this
activity to continue to move off to the east of the forecast area as
the low level jet axis pushes east. As the surface low over eastern
Iowa pushes eastward, a surface cold front associated with the deep
surface low will gradually push into the area bringing perhaps
another chance for some light rain through the day on Wednesday, but
once the front moves through the area rain chances will drastically
diminish. There could be some lingering cloudiness behind the cold
front, but forecast soundings indicates only a very thin saturated
layer, so daytime mixing could cause that post frontal stratus to
wear off by mid day. Expect the entire forecast area to be dry by
Wednesday evening. By Thursday morning cooler and drier air will
settle into the area as a surface ridge becomes entrenched over the
northern plains. This cool and dry air mass will be responsible for
below normal temperatures through the late part of the work week.
With the cool and dry air in place a rather potent positively tilted
mid level trough will glide through the area. While there will be
ample lift from this wave to create good mid level support for rain
the dry atmosphere will make it difficult to produce much in the way
of heavy rain. Therefore only expect some scattered light rain
through the day on Friday, perhaps lasting through Friday night.
Once the mid level trough moves east of the area an associated cold
front will reinforce the cool air in the area. The surface ridge
becomes well entrenched directly over the area by Saturday morning,
which will be the coldest morning of this forecast package. With the
cold air coming in for the late part of the week and into the
weekend, expect several days in a row of below normal temperatures,
ranging from the 50s to 60s for highs, and as low as the upper 30s
to lower 40s for Saturday morning. By the late part of the weekend
and into early next week, the surface ridge moves east, with winds
at the surface coming back around to the south/southeast. This will
bring a bit of a warming trend back to the area, with highs in the
middle 70s and lows in the 50s. Next chance for rain could come as
early as Sunday night and Monday morning as another mid level
trough moves through.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday Morning)
Issued at 625 AM CDT WED SEP 10 2014
Showers and thunderstorms have generally moved out of the area. A few
lingering showers will be possible along or just behind a cold front,
which will move through the terminals in the next couple hours.
Forecast soundings and upstream observations indicate MVFR/IFR
stratus, so confidence in stratus with restricted CIGS is increasing.
Given how far upstream the obs are below VFR have kept MVFR CIGS
through the rest of the forecast period after FROPA. There could also
be a few brief periods of IFR CIGS, but don't feel that IFR will be
prevailing.
