AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
1250 PM CDT Wed Jun 3 2015

.UPDATE...
Issued at 951 AM CDT WED JUN 3 2015

Slowly decaying convective system sagging toward the Missouri River
is being fed by a weakening LLJ which is pumping copious moisture
into it, with precipitable water amounts as high as 1.75" Since the
LLJ is weakening, believe this area of rain should begin to lose
steam through the rest of the morning. However, airmass is favorable
for very heavy rainfall rates and some parts of northeast Johnson
County KS into Jackson County have reported rates over 4" per hour at
times. This is leading to a heightened concern for flooding this
morning particularly near the I-70 corridor from Lafayette County
westward into northeast KS. Have already issued a flash flood warning
for these areas where up to 2" of rain have fallen in the past hour
with another 1" to 2" on the way through early afternoon.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 413 AM CDT WED JUN 3 2015

Wednesday marks the start of probably a fairly active period for
thunderstorm activity. The first bits of thunderstorms are currently
on the radar in the form of some pulsy storms likely in response to
a low level jet convergence across northwest Missouri. Conditions
aren't incredibly supportive of robust convection, but SPC
Mesoanalysis across NW Missouri indicates around 500 to 1000 J/kg of
MU Cape, with perhaps 20 to 25 kts of shear. So conditions are there
for one or more of these storms to become strong, with perhaps some
small hail, but large, damaging storms are not anticipated with this
activity. Then across eastern Nebraska, a large complex is diving
southeast into far southeast Nebraska and northwest Missouri. This
storm will run into the same limiting conditions mentioned for the
storm activity to its southeast, but it should still at least make
it into far northwestern Missouri with some gusty winds and some
heavy rain. One thing favoring higher impacts with this complex as
it moves southeast are the high PWAT values in place. While the
parameters dictating strength are limiting it's possible that the
heavy rain could bring some flooding to already swollen rivers and
streams and saturated soils.

Focus then shifts to later today, with uncertain convective
evolution. The aforementioned complex will likely lay down an
outflow boundary generally across southern Nebraska or northern
Kansas. This boundary will likely be the focus for afternoon
convective initiation once the sky clears out and insolation can
destabilize the atmosphere. The best low level convergence and mid
level flow, both conducive to organized storm formation will be west
of the forecast area, likely across either south central Nebraska or
north central Kansas. This area of convergence will drop off with
eastward extent, and likely cause the CWA to miss a majority of the
higher impact storms. That being said, as the evening wears on the
storms will likely congeal into a complex and move eastward into far
eastern Kansas and western Missouri. As the complex moves east it
should have plenty of moisture to work with as well as instability,
but it will run out of the better mid level flow and low level flow
looks pretty veered, so at this point, it does not appear that any
complex that forms tonight will spread eastward with severe weather
ambitions. Rather, the high PWAT might be conducive to heavy rain
and perhaps some flooding. 06z NAM struggles to move any robust
convection into the area tonight, but conceptually it seems that
once a cold pool is established that the complex will run east into
the forecast area for tonight.

For Thursday the mid level ridge looks to establish itself over the
southern and central plains, with the axis generally running from
central Iowa southwestward into NE Oklahoma. A lack of any obvious
triggering mechanism for daytime storm activity precludes very high
confidence for storm activity during the day on Thursday, however
with the mid level flow generally in the 20 to 40 kt range out of
the west along the apex of the ridge any convection that forms to
the west, either over the High Plains or in the Central/Northern
Plains could roll right along the mid level flow and through the
forecast area, so the area could see several MCS's roll through over
the next several nights as the mid level ridging feature does not
move over that time span. While the specific severe weather threats
are difficult to nail down at this time, the repeated chances for
heavy rain will bring a concern for some flooding, since local
streams are still swollen from recent rains, and soils are rather
saturated. Once we get to early next week a bit of a more
continental air mass will move into the area and the mid level flow
will take on more of a Great Lakes trough appearance, which will
diminish the chances for rain. for early next week. Could see MCS
pattern reload for middle to end of next week with moisture moving
back in and mid level flow picking back up.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Thursday Afternoon)
Issued at 1245 CDT WED JUN 3 2015

TSRA moving through the terminals towards east southeast. Upstream
conditions will bring VFR to terminals until the next system develops
along boundary left over from earlier convection along with
developing synoptic low pressure and associated surface trough in
southeast Kansas with bring VCTS around 03Z tonight. Some uncertainty
in timing and location will prohibit TEMPO group for now...but will
monitor closely as afternoon and evening progress and observational
data supports updates. Winds will move around to the southeast after
storms exit and will be variable in vicinity of storms later this
evening.
