AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
555 AM CDT Thu Oct 9 2014
...Heavy Rain with Potential for Flooding through Friday Night...
.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 305 AM CDT THU OCT 9 2014
Widespread Convection had developed overnight from northeast
Kansas into central and east central Missouri north of a warm
front. This activity had only brushed by counties in the far
northern portion of the forecast area.
This front will stall and sag back to south today and tonight as
surface high pressure builds into the upper Midwest. The front
will reach the Arkansas border by daybreak Friday. Showers and
thunderstorms will develop southward with time as the low level
jet continues to interact with the boundary.
Persistent moisture advection and strong moisture convergence
across the front on the nose of the low level jet will coupled
with a series of perturbations tracking through the westerly mid
level flow will support continued development of showers and
thunderstorms along and north of the front. Meanwhile the area
will become positioned within the entrance region of the upper
level jet to support to deep synoptic scale lift later today and
tonight. The result will be an increasing coverage of showers and
thunderstorms from north to south today with widespread rainfall
area wide tonight.
850 MB dew points around 15 degrees Celsius and precipitable water
amounts rising to nearly 2 inches will support efficient rainfall
production. This rainfall efficiency along with training convection
will lead to heavy rainfall amounts and the potential for
flooding.
Organized severe storms are not expected with this system. However
a few strong storms with small hail cannot be ruled out.
A Flash Flood Watch will be issued for the central Missouri
Counties starting at noon today generally north of an Osceola to
Salem line and for the remainder of southern Missouri and extreme
southeastern Kansas starting late this afternoon.
.LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 305 AM CDT THU OCT 9 2014
Widespread showers and embedded thunderstorms will continue Friday
into Friday night as the front sags to the south and the primary
shortwave trough approaches from the west. The axis of heaviest
rainfall will shift southward across southern Missouri with time.
The rain will persist into Saturday as the shortwave trough axis
makes its way across the region. Rainfall totals through Saturday
could range from 2 to 4 inches with locally higher amounts. The
Flash Flood Watch will continue until midday Saturday.
Rainfall will temporarily taper off later Saturday into Sunday
before additional moderate to heavy rain arrives Sunday night and
Monday in advance of a deep upper level trough. Strong synoptic
scale lift associated with this system will bring widespread rain
with some thunder Sunday night and Monday along with a renewed
risk for heavy rainfall and localized flooding.
The weather will dry out as we head into the middle of next week as
the upper level trough swings to the east and an upper level ridge
builds into the region.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Friday Morning)
Issued at 555 AM CDT THU OCT 9 2014
For the KSGF, KJLN, and KBBG TAFS...Dry conditions will occur
across the TAF sites this morning into early this afternoon. Winds
will generally be out of the south to southeast during this time.
A front will sag south into the area this evening and tonight.
Scattered convection will develop this afternoon into the early
evening ahead of the front. More widespread showers and
thunderstorms are expected to develop by the mid evening hours
continuing overnight along and behind the front. Flight conditions
will lower into the MVFR category once the convection overspreads
the area, with IFR conditions possible under the heavier showers/storms.
