AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
327 PM CDT Fri Jun 26 2015

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 327 PM CDT FRI JUN 26 2015

A few isolated to widely scattered showers and thunderstorms are
expected to continue through early evening as an upper-level
vorticity maximum associated with a shortwave trough slides through
the area. These storms are expected to dissipate as the feature
departs and as instability decreases diurnally, so expecting the
remainder of the night to be dry. No severe weather is expected, and
showers/storms should be progressive enough and scattered enough that
widespread flooding is not expected on top of what's already
occurring.

High pressure and cooler temperatures will push into the region for
Saturday, and quiet conditions are expected to continue at least
through Sunday morning. Below normal high temperatures in the upper
70s to lower 80s are anticipated Saturday, before temperatures begin
to gradually warm early next week.

As today's departing low pressure deepens over the Great Lakes, a
shortwave trough will ride down the back side of the trough and into
eastern Missouri, dragging a weak cold front through the CWA. Storms
are expected with this feature, but the main forcing will stay
mainly east of Hwy 65 in Missouri, keeping the chance for strong
storms mainly across eastern portions of the CWA. Storms are most
likely during the late afternoon through late evening hours as the
front passes through. Temperatures will not be significantly cooler
Monday behind the front, then the warming trend will continue.

The flow pattern will begin to flatten during the mid- to late-work
week, allowing precipitation chances to increase by late in the
forecast period. It's too early to tell if severe weather is
possible, but currently the pattern looks more supportive of heavy
rain and PWATs increase and a weak boundary lingers around central
Missouri.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday Afternoon)
Issued at 1258 PM CDT FRI JUN 26 2015

Isolated showers and widespread cumulus are expected to persist
through the afternoon hours, but should remain primarily VFR except
in periods of heavier rain. Isolated thunder is also possible this
afternoon, so have included a period of VCTS at all TAF sites through
early evening. Northerly winds will increase to between 10-12 kts by
mid afternoon, then should become light from this evening through
tomorrow afternoon.
