AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
1236 PM CDT SUN JUL 26 2015

.UPDATE:
ISSUED AT 1231 PM CDT SUN JUL 26 2015

HEAVY RAIN HAS DIMINISHED AND MOVED OFF TO THE EAST, SO LET FLASH
FLOOD WATCH EXPIRE AT NOON. SEEING SOME BREAKS IN CLOUDS OVER
CENTRAL MISSOURI, SO COULD STILL SEE HEAT INDICES BETWEEN 100 AND
105 THIS AFTERNOON. HEAT ADVISORY TO REMAIN IN EFFECT FOR CENTRAL
MO. OTHERWISE, WITH PLENTY OF OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES, COULD SEE SOME
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND STORMS POP UP THIS AFTERNOON, SO KEPT SLIGHT
CHANCE/CHANCE POPS.

BYRD
&&

.SHORT TERM:  (THROUGH LATE THIS AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 335 AM CDT SUN JUL 26 2015

FIRST MCS CURRENTLY TRACKING THROUGH NORTHWEST THIRD OF OUR CWA
SHOULD CONTINUE TO PUSH ESE DURING THE REMAINDER OF THE PREDAWN
HOURS. MEANWHILE, ANOTHER RENEGADE SHORTWAVE MIGRATING THROUGH THE
RIDGE CONTINUES TO DRIVE CONVECTIVE COMPLEX OVER WESTERN IA, AND
OVER THE LAST 90 MINUTES THERE HAS ALSO BEEN RENEWED DEVELOPMENT
OVER NE KS...SE NE...AND NW MO AS LOW LEVEL JET REINTENSIFIES
AHEAD OF SHORTWAVE. MOST EXPLICIT CONVECTION-ALLOWING MODELS HAVE
PICKED UP ON THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT, AND THEY WORK IT SOUTHEAST
ACROSS THE CWA DURING THE MORNING. AT THIS POINT SEE NO REASON TO
QUIBBLE WITH THIS SCENARIO, AND FORECAST DETAILS FOR THE MORNING ATTEMPT
TO MIMIC THIS TREND.

WITH THE RENEWED UPSTREAM DEVELOPMENT, HAVE OPTED TO EXTEND THE
FLASH FLOOD WATCH UNTIL NOON (AND HAVE ALSO EXPANDED IT TO INCLUDE
MONITEAU AND COLE COUNTIES BASED ON HEAVY RAIN CURRENTLY CLIPPING
THESE AREAS). WHILE I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THE CONVECTION WILL BE
QUITE AS WIDESPREAD AS CURRENT ACTIVITY, ANOTHER ROUND OF
DOWNPOURS OVER ALREADY SATURATED GROUND COULD CAUSE ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS.

MUCH LIKE YESTERDAY...UNCERTAIN OF DETAILS ABOUT AFTERNOON
CONVECTION. THERE SEEMS TO BE A TENDENCY IN BOTH THE HI-RES AND
SYNOPTIC MODELS THAT WEAK BUT PERSISTENT WAA WILL PRODUCE THE MAIN
CHANCE OF STORMS OVER SOUTHERN SECTIONS OF THE CWA, BUT FORECAST
SOUNDINGS INDICATE AN UNSTABLE/WEAKLY CAPPED AMS ALMOST
EVERYWHERE. SO, HAVE MAINTAINED CHANCE POPS EVERYWHERE, WITH
HIGHEST POPS OVER OUR SOUTHERN COUNTIES.

NO CHANGES TO HEAT ADVISORY AT THIS TIME. MORNING CLOUDS AND
PRECIP WILL LIKELY MAKE THE TEMP CLIMB A STRUGGLE ONCE AGAIN
TODAY, BUT IF CLOUDS THIN AS ANTICIPATED BELIEVE A FEW LOCATIONS
OVER MID MO WILL REACH A HI OF 105 FOR AN HOUR OR SO.

TRUETT

.LONG TERM:  (TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 335 AM CDT SUN JUL 26 2015

MODELS ARE STILL FORECASTING AN INTENSIFICATION OF THE UPPER RIDGE
ACROSS THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS.
THEREFORE...FORECAST WILL CONTINUE TO EMPHASIZE A DECREASE IN THE
THUNDERSTORM THREAT ACROSS THE REGION FOR THE EARLY PART OF THE
WORK WEEK, WITH A CORRESPONDING INCREASE OF HEAT AND HUMIDITY. IT
MAY BE THAT THIS INTENSIFICATION OF THE RIDGING WILL FINALLY
SUPPRESS ALL CONVECTION, BUT MODELS STILL CONTINUE TO KICK OUT A
FEW ROUNDS OF CONVECTION HERE AND THERE AND GIVEN THE DIRTY
NATURE OF THIS RIDGING CAN'T TOTALLY RULE OUT THIS SCENARIO.
SO...WILL MAINTAIN SOME SLIGHT CHANCE POPS...PRIMARILY ALONG AND
EAST OF THE THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER.

IF ABOVE THINKING PANS OUT...HEAT HEADLINES WILL BE NECESSARY OVER
MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA IN THE MONDAY-TUESDAY TIME FRAME. TO
AVOID HEADLINE CONFUSION WITH ONGOING CONVECTION AND TODAY'S HEAT
ADVISORY...OPTED NOT TO ISSUE ADDITIONAL ADVISORIES AT THIS
POINT, BUT WILL CONTINUE MENTION IN HWO.

STILL LOOKS LIKE RIDGE WILL FLATTEN BY MIDWEEK, WITH ASSOCIATED
COLD FRONT BRINGING ONE MORE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA.
FRONT IS FORECAST TO PUSH SOUTH OF THE FA ON THURSDAY AND FRIDAY,
ENDING THE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS. AFTER THE HOT AND SULTRY
CONDITIONS EARLY THIS WEEK, THE AIRMASS CHANGE TO COOLER AND LESS
HUMID CONDITIONS WILL BE QUITE NOTICEABLE.

VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL AT TAF SITES, THOUGH SOME SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND STORMS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THIS AFTERNOON IN STL
METRO AREA. SO HAVE VICINITY TS MENTION THROUGH 01Z MONDAY.
