AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED

.UPDATE...
FOR 00Z TAFS

&&

.DISCUSSION...
/ISSUED 354 PM CDT SAT JUN 7 2014/
A ZONAL...BUT SOMEWHAT WAVY MID-LEVEL FLOW CONTINUING OVER THE
CONUS...WAS BRINGING A SERIES OF SYSTEMS IN WEST-EAST FASHION
ACROSS THE REGION. THE WATER VAPOR LOOP INDICATED A MID LEVEL
MOISTURE AXIS FROM THE SOUTHERN GREAT BASIN...TO THE TEXAS
PANHANDLE AND MID SOUTH. STRONG EARLY JUNE HEATING HAS DESTABILIZED
A MOIST ENVIRONMENT...WITH SCATTERED CONVECTION FORMING MAINLY TO
THE WEST OF THE FORECAST AREA...AND NEAR THE QUAD CITIES. A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY EXTENDED IN A NW-SE ORIENTATION FROM WEST OF ST LOUIS TO
THE WESTERN CAROLINAS. HIGHS ACROSS THE REGION HAVE RISEN INTO THE
MID 80S TO AROUND 90...WITH DEWPOINTS AROUND 70.

PER THE CONVECTION FORMING MAINLY TO THE WEST WILL BRING A GOOD
CHANCE FOR SHOWERS/STORMS IN THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
OUTPUT FROM THE HI-RES MODELS...THE ARW/NNM BOTH INDICATED STORMS
MOVING ACROSS THE AREA IN A NW-SE FASHION DURING THE EVENING.
TIMING FROM THE 12Z RUN WAS A BIT SLOWER THAN THE 00Z RUN HAD
FORECAST...BUT AREAL COVERAGE OF RAIN WAS LARGER IN THE NEWER RUN.
THE 12 AND 18Z NAM...AND 12Z GFS WERE SIMILAR TO THE HI-RES. THUS
THINK THE BEST RAIN CHANCES SHOULD BE THIS EVENING...WITH PRECIP
CHANCES DIMINISHING SOMEWHAT AFTER MIDNIGHT. GIVEN STRONG HEATING
AND DESTABILIZATION...SOME OF THE STORMS THIS EVENING COULD BECOME
STRONG TO BORDERLINE SEVERE...WITH STRONG TO SEVERE WINDS THE MAIN
THREAT. PRECIP WATER AMOUNTS AROUND 1.5 INCHES ALSO MEANS LOCALLY
HEAVY RAINFALL...WITH A SMALL FLASH FLOOD THREAT. SOME OF THE
STORMS COULD BECOME ELECTRICALLY ACTIVE...ESPECIALLY IF HIGH PRECIP
WATER AMOUNTS ARE PRESENT.

SIMILAR CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST TOMORROW (SUNDAY)...AS A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY SAGS TOWARD THE REGION. GIVEN THE PRECIP WILL BE GENERALLY
CONVECTION...WILL STAY WITH HIGH CHANCE RATHER THAN LIKELY POPS ON
SUN. STRONG TO MARGINALLY SEVERE STORMS ARE ALSO POSSIBLE ONCE
AGAIN...WITH WINDS THE PRIMARY THREAT.

A BROKEN RECORD FORECAST CONTINUED FOR MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. A MORE/
LESS ZONAL FLOW WILL CONTINUE WITH VARIOUS UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES
MOVING EASTWARD IN THE PREVAILING WESTERLIES. GIVEN A SUMMER-LIKE
WARM AND HUMIDITY...IT IS TOUGH TO RULE OUT RAIN CHANCES DURING THE
EXTENDED. OUTPUT FROM THE ECMWF/GFS WERE IN REASONABLY GOOD
AGREEMENT SHOWING THE BEST RAIN CHANCES AGAIN ON MONDAY NIGHT AND
IN THE MID WEEK. EVEN THOUGH WILL KEEP RAIN CHANCES IN THE
EXTENDED...UPPER LEVEL INDICATIONS ARE FOR A DRYING TREND...
POSSIBLE LATE NEXT WEEK. UPPER RIDGING BUILDING IN PER LONGER RANGE
OUTPUT GENERALLY TEMPERS RAIN CHANCES...AT THE EXPENSE OF WARMER
TEMPERATURES.

.AVIATION...
FOR 00Z TAFS...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL AT KHSV AND
KMSL...ALTHOUGH VIS AND CIGS COULD TEMPORARILY LOWER INTO MVFR
WITHIN STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
WILL CONTINUE FOR ANOTHER FEW HOURS. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
RETURN SUNDAY AFTERNOON.
