Area Forecast Discussion...Updated Aviation
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
646 AM CDT Thu Jun 28 2018

.SHORT TERM...  (Through Late Tonight)
Issued at 354 AM CDT Thu Jun 28 2018

Thunderstorms have developed in the vicinity of a warm front over
central and north central Missouri.  The environment is very
unstable with MUCAPE of 3500-5000 J/Kg according to the SPC Meso
Analysis site.  Expect these storms to continue to develop and
strengthen through the pre-dawn hours this morning.  With that much
CAPE and effective bulk shear of 35-40kts would expect that some of
these storms will begin to rotate which will enhance the probability
for them to become severe.  Large hail should be the most likely
threat, but if the descrete cells get organized into a cluster or
line, then wind damage will also be possible.

All short range guidance shows the morning storms either moving
southeast of the area by mid to late morning...or simply dissipating
as the low level jet weakens.  Latest guidance temperatures show
highs peaking in the mid to upper 90s along and west of the
Mississippi with dew point temperatures in the mid 70s.  Heat index
values in excess of 105 degrees are likely...and the heat advisory
looks good for today.  All that heat and humidity will make the
atmosphere very unstable...and the RAP is forecasting afternoon
MLCAPE in excess of 5000 J/Kg with 0-3km/0-6km shear of 25-35kts.
While the shear isn't that impressive...the CAPE is eye-popping.
Forecast soundings do show just enough CINH to suppress convection
along the instability access which is forecast to stretch from near
Kirksville southeast to Farmington.  However, if the models are off
just a bit on their CINH calculations it could get very busy this
afternoon. If any storms do form would expect them to move southeast
and away from the forecast area by mid-late evening and the rest of
the night should be quiet

Carney

.LONG TERM...  (Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 354 AM CDT Thu Jun 28 2018

We should be locked in the teeth of the upper level ridge by Friday
morning...and the ridge will remain in control through Saturday. New
00Z MOS guidance is showing temperatures in the mid 90s to around
100 across the entire area on both days which look reasonable with
850mb temps in the 22-24C range.  The GFS prints out spotty precip
both days but the NAM is dry.  Think the chance for convection will
be minimal with the upper ridge overhead so will keep the forecast
dry.  No change to heat headlines at this time.

All guidance has a shortwave moving from the northeast Plains into
the Midwest late Saturday night into Sunday.  The wave attenuates
the upper ridge Sunday into Monday while the surface reflection
pushes a cold front into northwest Missouri and central
Illinois...possibly as far south as central Missouri before it
stalls.  This should translate into slightly cooler temperatures and
a chance for precip both days as the front lingers over the area.

The general pattern is similar for Tuesday and Wednesday in the
medium range guidance.  A surface high settles over the Great Lakes
and Ohio Valley.  This keeps our forecast area in east-southeast
flow through that period.  The ECMWF is much more aggressive in
building the upper level ridge back over the mid Mississippi Valley
Tuesday while the GFS's upper pattern is kind of messy with a less
well defined ridge redeveloping toward Wednesday morning.  The GFS
therefore prints out more precip than the EC does for the end of the
forecast period.  Am inclined to lean toward the drier EC at this
time as the GFS always seems to be too wet in the long term,
especially in weakly forced weather patterns like this one. Prefer
going on the warm end of guidance temperatures as well with the
drier solution and 850mb temps rising into the low 20s again.

.AVIATION...  (For the 12z TAFs through 12z Friday Morning)
Issued at 641 AM CDT Thu Jun 28 2018

A few thunderstorms this morning, mostly west of the terminals,
were moving south/southeast around 15-20 mph. Have covered
upstream activity with TEMPO groups, as the scattered nature of
thunderstorms this morning precludes adding to prevailing
conditions. Otherwise, VFR conditions can be expected through the
TAF period, outside of thunderstorms.

SPECIFICS FOR KSTL:
VFR conditions except for invof thunderstorms. Thunderstorm
activity is expected to move south/southeast and be out of the
area around 16Z.
