Area Forecast Discussion...Updated Aviation
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
1159 PM CDT Thu Jul 19 2018

.UPDATE...
Issued at 732 PM CDT Thu Jul 19 2018

Severe thunderstorm watch 286 issued for portions of NE MO and
WC/SW IL til 2 am. Large complex of storms moving southeast
through this area this evening.

.SHORT TERM...  (Through Late Friday Afternoon)
Issued at 400 PM CDT Thu Jul 19 2018

Forecast challenges mainly deal with convective trends late this
afternoon into this evening, overnight tonight and again Friday.

The early morning thunderstorm complex that developed and spread
through central/southeast Missouri this morning, effectively
resulted in a relatively stable environment. Outflow from this
complex then propagated west-southwest in the Kansas City area,
where additional storms have been focused.

The big question this afternoon has been whether a second round
would develop and become organized over north-central Missouri.
Trends have continued to favor western Missouri, generally along the
outflow boundary from this morning's convection. Despite some
afternoon cap erosion over northern Missouri, the relatively stable
layer continues to hold and redevelopment has remained isolated and
short-lived. The best support coincides with ongoing convection over
western Missouri, where a thin corridor of ~3000 J/kg of MUCape
extend north-to-south. Instability tails off to about 1000 J/kg
toward the St. Louis area.

Current thinking is that additional storm could still fire, but will
likely be tamed by this stable pocket over central and east-central
Missouri. Additional storms area more likely to redevelop in area
that were not already contaminate by this morning's thunderstorms,
which includes ongoing convection over eastern Kansas, western
Missouri and near the Missouri/Iowa border, closer to the junction
of the cold/warm frontal boundaries and just east of the 40-50kt jet
streak.

Guidance hints at a mid-upper drying taking place behind the upper
level wave, pushing northwest to southeast over central Missouri
into Friday morning. Eastward progress of the frontal boundary,
along with the upper low and jet max should be enough to push most
severe potential well into Illinois and over the OH/TN Valley
Regions. Given the lesser likelihood of precip, temps were bumped up
a couple of degrees with a gradual drop in humidity from east to
west during the day Friday.

.LONG TERM...  (Friday Night through Next Thursday)
Issued at 400 PM CDT Thu Jul 19 2018

A longwave trough over parts of the central and eastern US will
begin to deepen by Friday night. An attendant low over the Great
Lakes on Friday night will move to the Ohio valley by Saturday
morning, then over into the southeast US by Sunday afternoon.
Showers and a few thunderstorms can be expected Saturday afternoon
across west central and southwest IL, east of the Mississippi River
on the backside of the vertically stacked low pressure system.
Showers and a few thunderstorms are possible on Sunday over
southwestern Illinois on the back side of the trough.  The low over
the Gulf coast will then become cut off from the deep long wave
trough. North-northwest flow will continue over the forecast area
from Friday night through Wednesday over the area. Cooler
temperatures are expected over the area this weekend due to the
north-northwest flow over the forecast area.  The operational models
continue to brings more showers and a few thunderstorms across
southeast MO and southwest IL Tuesday afternoon as a cold front
drops southeastward through our area with broad upper level
troughing over the northern Plains and Great Lakes region. The cold
is expect to move just south of the CWA on Wednesday with additional
chances for isolated showers and thunderstorms again on Wednesday
afternoon over southeast Missouri and southwestern Illinois.
Temperature will be at seasonal values for late July over the
area.
