Area Forecast Discussion...Updated Aviation
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
1144 PM CDT Sat May 26 2018

.SHORT TERM...  (Through Late Sunday Afternoon)
Issued at 309 PM CDT Sat May 26 2018

The main focus will be the holiday weekend heat and nailing down any
isolated to scattered thunderstorms this evening into tonight.

Much of the region remains dry and sunny with a large extent of diurnal
cu south and east of St. Louis. Few/sct mid and high clouds are
remnant of earlier convection, which has since dissipated. This
has allowed temperatures to climb into the upper 80s and lower 90s
by 3 p.m. with dewpoints in the upper 60s to near 70. Sufficient
low level moisture and instability will be enough for an isolated
storm.

The best chance for storms will come along a weak boundary, which is
currently positioned near the MO/IA border. It will slowly sink
south and be aided by a weak surface trough. Out ahead of this,
CAPE will climb to around or just over 3000 J/kg. The limiting
factor will once again be the weak shear component. Expect a
scattered line of storms to develop over northern Missouri and
western Illinois, progressing south this evening. Given ample
instability, we will have a few hour window for storms to produce
locally heavy rain, frequent lightning and hail. Looking for most
of this to remain north of I-70 to the tri-states region. Not
expecting an organized severe threat, but cannot rule out an
isolated strong storm during daylight hours. Beyond sunset,
little support exists for any ongoing convection with precip
lingering through late evening.

Much of Sunday will remain dry. The boundary stalls just south of
the area with slight chances for afternoon storms over far southeast
Missouri and southern Illinois. High pressure builds in and should
be the insurance in a rain-free, hot afternoon. Record high
temperatures will likely be challenged with temperatures well into
the 90s.

Maples

.LONG TERM...  (Sunday Night through Next Saturday)
Issued at 309 PM CDT Sat May 26 2018

High pressure is expected to keep conditions hot and dry through
Memorial Day. It is likely to be the second consecutive day coming
close to record temperatures.

The next bit of excitement comes in the midweek period, when
Alberto pushes northward out of the Gulf of Mexico. Medium to long
range guidance is in better agreement with the surface low
tracking into western Tennessee by late Tuesday. Well ahead of the
system, high clouds could help tame Tuesday's temperatures with
highs in the mid to upper 80s. Northern sections of the forecast
area will have the best shot and reaching 90 with clouds far
enough south not to inhibit daytime heating.

High pressure over the Midwest eventually gives way to the system,
while the more dominant high over the Atlantic builds slightly
westward. If this holds, it should eject the system almost due
north into the Great Lakes Region. Showers and thunderstorms
would develop around the western periphery of the system, putting
those along and east of the Mississippi in decent position for
thunderstorm potential late Tuesday through Wednesday.

Beyond Wednesday there is no real dominant feature over the
Midwest. Upper flow goes somewhat zonal with a couple of
disturbances providing additional chances for shower and
thunderstorm activity into Thursday. Ridging builds back in from
the southwest with drier and warmer conditions returning for
Friday and Saturday.

.AVIATION...  (For the 06z TAFs through 06z Sunday Night)
Issued at 1110 PM CDT Sat May 26 2018

Isolated convection continues to develop just north-northeast of
STL along a weak surface boundary. This convection will shift
slowly southward overnight and may impact STL and CPS late
tonight. Otherwise VFR conditions outside of the storms with light
winds. Few-scattered diurnal cumulus clouds will develop again in
COU and the St Louis metro area late Sunday morning and
afternoon, but most of the convection will likely be south of the
taf sites Sunday afternoon/evening.

SPECIFICS FOR KSTL: Isolated convection continues to develop just
north-northeast of STL along a weak surface boundary. This
convection will shift slowly southward overnight and may impact
STL late tonight. Otherwise VFR conditions outside of the storms
with light winds. Few-scattered diurnal cumulus clouds will
develop again late Sunday morning and afternoon, but most of the
convection will likely be south of STL Sunday afternoon/evening.
