Missouri...
 
  Little Osage River near Horton affecting Vernon County
  Osage River near Schell City affecting Bates and Vernon Counties
 ...The Flood Warning continues for the following rivers in 
Missouri...
 
  Marmaton River near Nevada affecting Vernon County 
   
.Heavy rainfall Saturday evening over portions of the area have caused 
river levels to rise above flood stage on the Marmaton River near Nevada.
However, forecast rainfall will keep within bank rises on the Little Osage River
at Horton and the Osage River at Schell City.  

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Do not drive through flowing water. Nearly half of all flood 
fatalities are vehicle related. As little as 6 inches of water may 
cause you to lose control of your vehicle. Two feet of water will 
carry most vehicles away.

Stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio for later statements.

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
618 AM CDT Sun May 10 2015

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Monday)
Issued at 330 AM CDT SUN MAY 10 2015

Messy forecast for today into Monday morning with multiple rounds of
thunderstorms possible as a strong storm system lifts north
across the Plains today and tonight.

Showers with a few embedded rumbles of thunder are currently
tracking east across mainly southern Missouri early this morning.
This activity will continue to track east early this morning,
and it should push east of the area around sunrise.

The upper level low is currently located across northeastern
Colorado early this morning as the associated surface low is
across northwestern Kansas. A dry line extends south of the
surface low across western Kansas into central Texas early this
morning. Thunderstorms were developing along the dry line across
central Texas.

The upper level and surface lows will move north this morning with
the dry line making little movement to the east. The
thunderstorms will push to the northeast and with decent Theta-E
difference, expect cold pools to congeal and the convection to push
towards the area by this afternoon. Surface dew points across the
area are currently in the 60s, and expect clouds to clear fairly
quickly today behind the morning convection. Therefore,
instability will increase and the better theta-E difference will
spread northeast. This will allow the convection that is currently
across central Texas to maintain itself into and through the area
as it tracks to the northeast. The main question is where does
it begin to track into the area, west or east of east I-49.

The theta-E differences will support a damaging wind risk with this
activity especially with line segments. The deep layer shear will
also increase across the area today which will allow updraft to become
more organized and support a hail risk especially with any more
descrete cells that can develop, supporting a hail risk to the
size of quarters this afternoon. Low level wind shear will be
limited across the area with this afternoon activity which will
limit any tornado risk.

The dry line will be overrun by a cold from this afternoon and
the cold front will push east across Kansas this afternoon into
this evening. Additional thunderstorm development will be possible
along the front from late this afternoon into this evening from
eastern Kansas to the south into central Texas. The question is,
can the atmosphere recover and enough instability redevelop behind
the afternoon convection. This will be dependent one how quick the
convection spreads out of the area and if it effects the far
western potions of the forecast area. There may be a small window
where supercells can develop along the cold front across eastern
Kansas this afternoon. This is a conditional risk and feel it will
mainly occur west of I-49 and think the atmosphere will have a
tough time recovering to the east where the afternoon convection
will track.

If supercells can develop, again this is a conditional risk mainly
west of I-49, the main risk would be large hail and damaging
straight line winds early this evening. Low level wind shear will
increase this evening as the low level jet kicks in and there
could be a limited risk for a tornado with any supercell, but again
this is dependent on enough instability developing. If enough
instability cannot develop behind the afternoon convection
supercells will not develop early this evening.

As the cold front pushes east, a line or line segments will be
possible along the front as it spreads east across the area this
evening into the overnight hours. Damaging straight line winds
will be the main severe risk with the line. 0-3km bulk shear
vectors will increase to near 40kt to the northeast. The cold
front is expected to move around 20kts to the east tonight, this
will not be fast enough to support cold pool/shear balance of any
lines riding the front. Some models show the potential for a
strong enough cold pool to develop to get the storms off the line
and if this occurs there would be mesovortices potential with any
line segments that can surge to the east.

Both rounds of showers and storms expected today will be fairly
progressive and not seeing a good signal for widespread heavy
rainfall this far north, especially questions on if the atmosphere
can recover after this afternoons round. Feel now the convection and
rainfall amounts will be more limited this evening and tonight.
However, will maintain the Flash Flood Watch as is, with these
locations having the heaviest rainfall since Thursday and these
two additional rounds of rain on top of this will keep a potential
for flooding into Monday morning.

.LONG TERM...(Monday Night through Saturday)
Issued at 330 AM CDT SUN MAY 10 2015

Behind the cold front cooler conditions will occur into Tuesday
with dry weather expected.

Upper level ridging will then build towards the region during the
middle to end of the week with more normal temperatures for this
time of year with highs in the 70s.

Another upper level system will push into the southwestern U.S.
during the middle of the week and will slowly track east into next
weekend, and looks to bring more unsettled weather to the area. It
will not be complete all day rains, but as weak disturbances
track off the main system showers and thunderstorms will be
possible at times from Wednesday into the weekend.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Monday Morning)
Issued at 613 AM CDT SUN MAY 10 2015

A couple rounds of showers and thunderstorms will be possible from
late morning through the afternoon, and then again late this
evening. VFR conditions are expected in between the convection
with MVFR/IFR conditions within the convection today/tonight. A
gusty southerly wind will persist through the day, but will
eventually switch to the southwest and west later tonight as a
front begins to move through.

534 AM CDT SUN MAY 10 2015

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF THE MISSOURI
OZARKS AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED...

  ELEVATED HAIL RISK.
  ELEVATED THUNDERSTORM WIND DAMAGE RISK.
  LIMITED TORNADO RISK.
  ELEVATED FLOODING RISK.
  SIGNIFICANT LIGHTNING RISK.

DISCUSSION...

STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO TRACK NORTHEAST OUT OF OKLAHOMA AND
ARKANSAS INTO THE AREA LATE THIS MORNING INTO EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON...THEN ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON. DAMAGING
STRAIGHT LINE WINDS TO 60 MPH AND HAIL TO THE SIZE OF QUARTERS
WILL BE THE MAIN RISK WITH THIS ACTIVITY.

ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS THEN POSSIBLE ALONG A COLD
FRONT AS IT PUSHES INTO EXTREME SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS AND FAR
WESTERN MISSOURI THIS EVENING. SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE
POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY IF ENOUGH INSTABILITY DEVELOPS BEHIND THE
STORMS THIS AFTERNOOON. HAIL TO THE SIZE OF HALF DOLLARS AND
DAMAGING STRAIGHT LINE WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN RISK. AN INCREASE IN
LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR WILL ALSO SUPPORT A LOW RISK FOR A TORNADO.
THIS SEVERE WEATHER RISK IS AGAIN CONDITIONAL ON ENOUGH
INSTABILITY DEVELOPING.

AS THE COLD FRONT PUSHES EAST MORE WIDESPREAD STORMS WILL DEVELOP
ALONG THE FRONT LATER THIS EVENING INTO MONDAY MORNING. A FEW
STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS WILL REMAIN INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS
WITHIN THIS ACTIVITY. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND THE POTENTIAL FOR FLASH
FLOODING WILL ALSO OCCUR...MAINLY ACROSS LOCATIONS THAT HAVE SEEN
HEAVY RAINS THE LAST FEW DAYS THAT GET AFFECTED BY MULTIPLE STORMS
TODAY.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE ONGOING ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI AND
PORTIONS OF THE EASTERN OZARKS MONDAY MORNING WITH LIGHTNING
STRIKES THE MAIN RISK WITH THIS ACTIVITY. THIS ACTIVITY WILL PUSH
EAST OF THE AREA BY MONDAY AFTERNOON.

ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS WILL THEN BE POSSIBLE AT TIMES FROM THE
MIDDLE OF THE WEEK INTO NEXT WEEKEND.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

  SPOTTER ACTIVATION MAY BE NEEDED ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN KANSAS AND
  THE MISSOURI OZARKS THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT.
