AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

422 AM CDT THU SEP 10 2015

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 421 AM CDT THU SEP 10 2015

Today - Tonight...

In the very short term the remnants of a long-lived mini-complex of
thunderstorms looks like it will have enough legs to push into the
far western CWA before dissipating after sunrise. Feature is being
powered by a shortwave trough tracking east through the base of a
broad upper level trough covering the north central states down into
the Mid MO Valley. Moist isentropic ascent on the 305K and 310K
surfaces feeding/lifting marginal instability into this complex will
maintain activity for several more hours.

Remainder of the day will be spent waiting for the development of
strong/severe convection over KS/MO. A moderately strong cold front
will drop southward from SD/MN and encounter a moderately unstable
airmass residing over KS and MO where operational models show
MLCAPES in excess of 2000J/kg this afternoon. Favorable
0-6km shear of 40kts will provide a favorable environment for
rotating supercells which will support the production of large hail
for the first few hours before the convection evolves into short
line segments and mini-bows which will then favor damaging winds.
Agree with the area depicted by the latest SPC Day 1 outlook which
places a slight risk of severe storms over west central MO and
adjacent east central KS. One caveat is if any residual boundaries
will linger from this mornings storms which would certainly muddy up
the waters.

With very good agreement between models on timing and location have
sufficient confidence to increase PoPs over the western CWA for
late afternoon into the evening hours. And with precipitable water
values increasing to near 2 inches and favorable timing of
convection heavy rains are likely. With steering flow in excess of
30kts believe storm motion will be fast enough that cells won't
reside long enough to warrant a flash flood watch.

Model trend is a bit faster so have ended rains a bit faster tonight.

Friday - Tuesday...

A dry and very pleasant period with much below average temperatures
starting off and then then a gradual warm-up back to normal.

The upper trough is expected to sharpen early in the period allowing
a surge of very cool and dry air to overspread the region and
resulting in fall-like temperatures. Will see morning lows dip into
the 40s Saturday and Sunday with afternoon highs in the upper 60s-
lower 70s through Sunday.

Warm air advection commences for the start of next week as the upper
trough pushes eastward allowing heights to rise and warmer air
parked over the Southern Rockies advects northeastward.

Wednesday...

The ECMWF and GFS are similar in lowering heights east of the
Rockies in advance of a sharp shortwave trough ejecting northeast
through the Rockies. Rain chances likely to increase but questions
revolve around the placement of the cold front.
