AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO
538 AM CDT Wed Apr 8 2015

.UPDATE...
Issued at 538 AM CDT WED APR 8 2015

Warm air wing of convection has developed more early this morning
across eastern Kansas with storms quickly approaching the Missouri
border at this time. Storms north of I-70 are elevated in nature and
have stayed below severe warning limits, though large hail may be
possible if the shear above the boundary layer inversion can organize
the storms somewhat this morning. Storms farther south, generally
south of a Paola Kansas to Warrensburg Missouri, Marshall and
Moberly line, will have more opportunity to develop severe weather
this morning. These storms will be in the vicinity of the boundary
left over from last night which might help these storms get a better
connection to deep layer shear and instability. Continue to think that
the activity north of the Missouri River will keep the inverted
surface trough anchored along our southeast border through the
morning. For this reason, have added areas of fog and drizzle this
morning to the western half of the forecast area.

&&

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 403 AM CDT WED APR 8 2015

Looks like more storms are in store for eastern Kansas and Missouri
today. Overnight activity took awhile Tuesday evening to get going,
but once the the cap was broken there where several rather strong
storms, which could have been much stronger if there had been upper
level dynamics to support the storms. The difference today is that a
significant trough is moving into the Plains States, which will
provide any storms this afternoon or this evening with plenty of
upper level support for strong robust severe thunderstorms. But,
first to what will happen this morning.

Today - This Morning: Early this morning an inverted surface trough
remains anchored from southeast Kansas northeast through northeast
Missouri, with the resulting boundary residing within the trough
along our southeast county warning area border. A verity of model
solutions have now coalesced on keeping this inverted surface trough
in place through the morning and, possibly, through the first part
of the afternoon. Additionally...it's noted that storms are bubbling
back up across east central Kansas in the elevated environment north
of the trough thanks to isentropic assent on the 40 knot southwest
nocturnal jet. Thoughts are that these early morning storms will
likely not be severe due to their elevated nature, though marginally
large hail can not be ruled out. More general thinking is that this
area of storms will advect northeast into northern Missouri, staying
on the cool side of the inverted trough. As a result, have added
patchy fog into the northwest half few the CWA for this morning, and
nudged afternoon highs near the Iowa border down a degree or two;
but did up POPs for the morning, though they may need updating based
on radar trends as the forecast becomes valid later this morning.
Also, these morning storms could limit our instability early in the
day, delaying the potential onset time for afternoon/evening
activity. So, while another round of activity might wait to fire up
in the late afternoon and evening hours, it is still expected to
occur.

Today - This Afternoon and Tonight: Expect the inverted trough to
remain where it is till early afternoon when sufficient pressure
falls begin across the Plains in response to the trough over the
Great Basin shifting east, lifting the trough north as a warm front
this afternoon. As this occurs, the environment that was rather well
capped could rapidly lose that cap with any little shortwave
undulation present in the flow aloft, resulting in fast development
of strong and severe thunderstorms. Currently, expect storms to
develop along the southern end of the inverted trough as it starts
moving north this afternoon --after 20Z-- in southeast Kansas. MUCAPE
values of 4000+ J/KG and 0-6KM shear of possibly 40 to 50 knots would
make supercell thunderstorms possible from the first initial storms.
Expect this activity to spread northeast through west central
Missouri into northern Missouri during the late afternoon and evening
hours Wednesday, with storms likely crossing into our area between 5
and 7 PM this evening. Uncertain as to how far into the overnight
hours the strong and severe convection will last, but currently there
looks to be a bit of a dry slot that works in across northwest
Missouri as associated surface low lifts from Kansas into Iowa. this
should bring the threat for severe storms to an end by midnight,
though lingering storms could persist into Thursday. Thoughts persist
that all types of severe weather may accompany our storms today, with
large hail --larger than 2 inches-- strong damaging winds and
isolated tornadoes possible.

Thursday: The upper level trough responsible for our recent storms
will be swinging past us to the north. The surface low moving into
Iowa that morning will drag a Pacific cold front through the region
that day. The cool air behind the front will lag far enough back to
not be very notable till Friday. However, this front might be able to
generate some showers and or isolated thunderstorms as it moves
through, though no severe weather.

Friday and through the Weekend: Cooler conditions will prevail
Friday as a cool, but dry, air mass wafts through Kansas and
Missouri. Temperatures will warm back into the 70s for the weekend.
Saturday looks nice and dry, but by Saturday night through Sunday
and into Monday a significant rain event may develop.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday Night)
Issued at 1240 AM CDT WED APR 8 2015

Inverted trough poking northeast across central Missouri has left our
four terminal sites in some soupy IFR to LIFR conditions early this
morning. Do not expect the trough to move much before noon today so
have kept the terminals in the IFR range through the morning. Ceilings
should lift in the afternoon as a warm front moves north, but this
could also help generate some thunderstorm activity along the Kansas-
Missouri border. Storms should move northeast away form the
terminals, but have kept VCTS in for lingering activity that might
persist well into the evening hours. Confidence is very low on this
forecast. Otherwise...expect winds to from the north early this
morning to slowly back to the east and then south as the warm front
lifts up this afternoon. Gusty south winds are then expected to sweep
in behind the front as it lifts north, with gusty winds persisting
through the night due to a tight pressure gradient.
