Area forecast discussion, Jun 17, 6:31 PM CDT, 6 hours 19 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...Updated Aviation National Weather Service Saint Louis MO 631 PM CDT Sat Jun 17 2017 .SHORT TERM... (Through Late Sunday Afternoon) Issued at 317 PM CDT Sat Jun 17 2017 Focus will once again be an MCS tonight. Convective debris today from MCS last night has slowed heating today. STCU field developed early this morning beneath an EML, however, breaks are finally becoming evident as cap begins to weaken somewhat and boundary layer air destabilizes. Expect TSRA to impact nrn portions of the CWA late this afternoon or early evening hours. Not much change in the prev thinking with all threats possible with any discrete storms that impact the area. Any discrete storms shud become line segments fairly quickly becoming mainly a wind threat. This line shud then congeal and sink swd thru the CWA thru the night. Expect only lingering SHRA, isod TS, across srn portions of the CWA by 12z Sun. For Sun, expect a cooler day with nwly winds at the sfc behind the cdfnt. Expect convective debris to linger thru the morning hours. With cyclonic curvature across nrn and nwrn portions of the CWA, expect a fair amount of diurnal CU to develop which shud also help keep temps down. However, how far SW this thicker cloud cover will extend is uncertain attm. Tilly .LONG TERM... (Sunday Night through Next Saturday) Issued at 317 PM CDT Sat Jun 17 2017 Quiet weather is expected from Sunday night through part of Tuesday due to a surface ridge which settles across the region in the wake of Sunday's cold front. By Tuesday afternoon, the surface high pressure center will have moved far enough eastward for southwesterly winds around its western periphery to bring a warm and moist air mass back towards MO/IL. Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will be possible within this unstable air mass. The advection of warm and moist air will also act to sharpen a developing warm front which then lifts northeastward on Tuesday night and Wednesday in response to a low pressure system moving into the north central CONUS. However, there is considerable model disagreement after 00z Wed regarding both surface and upper air features. Models are in general agreement that there ought to be at least one surface front near the area at least once during the middle and late part of next week and that the upper air pattern becomes quasizonal with several embedded vorticity maxima, but there is significant disagreement regarding the timing and placement of these features. Kanofsky && .AVIATION... (For the 00z TAFs through 00z Sunday Evening) Issued at 625 PM CDT Sat Jun 17 2017 Supercell moving swd out of IA is expected to impact KUIN shortly after 01z. This storm shud be capable of producing damaging winds and large hail. Otherwise, little change from prev TAFs. Tilly && .LSX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MO...None. IL...None. && WFO LSX
