AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1134 PM CDT THU AUG 6 2015

...Scattered Storms Overnight...

.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1130 PM CDT THU AUG 06 2015

We are monitoring for the development of isolated to scattered
thunderstorms from extreme southeastern Kansas into far
southwestern Missouri overnight as progged by short term models.

A modest low level jet will intersect a surface boundary extending
from northeast Oklahoma into west central Arkansas. Subsequent
isentropic upglide and moisture convergence just north of this
boundary should instigate convective development within an
existing theta-e axis.

Most unstable CAPE values up to near 5000 J/KG reside just south
of the boundary while deep layer shear was near 40 kts. So a few
strong to marginally severe storms cannot be ruled out. However
locally heavy rainfall and frequent lightning will be the primary
hazards with these storms.

Activity will initially develop southwest of a Ft. Scott to Mount
Vernon line between midnight and 4 AM and track to the southeast.
Additional development will be possible farther northeast into
southwestern Missouri during the predawn hours.

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 0228 PM CDT THU AUG 06 2015

Has been mostly sunny across the CWA today in the wake of an upper
level shortwave trough with a weak ridge building over the area.
Northeast flow at the lower levels behind the low has dried things
out (PW values around 1.20 in.) Higher dewpoints were to the south
and west of the CWA and with it, much warmer temperatures south of
a frontal boundary which was stretching across north central OK
into central AR.

Focus will be with precipitation chances late tonight into Friday
morning as front lifts back north and upper level shortwave dives
southeast into the area. Then shifting to hot conditions over the
weekend as upper ridge builds in.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Friday)
Issued at 0228 PM CDT THU AUG 06 2015

For tonight, will start to gradually see the front lift back to
the north and upper level energy moving in from the northwest
overnight tonight. Moisture should begin to creep back into the
area, with showers and thunderstorms possible after midnight. The
thunderstorm chances will continue until around midday with the
upper level energy shifting to the east during the afternoon and
upper level ridge building back into the forecast area from the
west. Not expecting any organized severe storms with this
shortwave, but a few could approach severe limits.

As the upper level ridge builds in and the front lifts north of
the area, we should start to warm up during the afternoon,
especially in the southwest portion of the CWA. Afternoon heat
index values will approach 105 degrees in the southwest corner of
the CWA.

.LONG TERM...(Friday Night through Thursday)
Issued at 0228 PM CDT THU AUG 06 2015

More significant heat will build into the area over the weekend
and the upper level ridge builds overhead. We will be well within
the warm sector and fairly capped keeping thunderstorm chances to
our north. Temperatures will likely climb into the mid to upper
90s with heat index values reaching the 100 to 110 degree range
over the weekend.

The heat looks to be short-lived however as a northern stream
shortwave dives southeast and drops a cold front through the area.
Upper level pattern will significantly change after that as ridge
retrogrades to the west and our upper level flow becomes almost
due north-south. Cooler and drier air will move into the area for
much of the remainder of the week.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Friday Night)
Issued at 1130 PM CDT THU AUG 06 2015

VFR conditions at area terminals will persist much of the
overnight. However changes are anticipated overnight as scattered
showers and thunderstorms develop from southeastern Kansas into
southwestern Missouri north of a warm front. This could result in
thunderstorms in the terminal vicinities and intervals of MVFR
conditions. The scattered storms will diminish by midday Friday as
the warm front lifts north. Expect an increase in southerly winds
by Friday afternoon.
