Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Springfield MO
210 PM CDT Wed May 16 2018

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 110 PM CDT Wed May 16 2018

A couple of small scale upper level disturbances: 1) Well
pronounced mcv over ne OK will drift ese and for the most part
convection with this system will stay near or just south of our
border (best chances in the near term are the far sw corner of
MO). Bears some watching with the HRRR keeping persistent weak
convection along the MO/AR border tonight. 2) Over far se NEB
drifting to the southeast moving into central and east central MO
Thu. This may be more of a player for our weather for Thu during
the peak heating part of the day afternoon/evening with the
chances for scattered showers/thunderstorms favoring the eastern
cwfa.

In the meantime for the the rest of today, some isolated pulse
convection will be possible but given the relatively low
pwats/moisture aloft we are not expecting severe storms.

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 110 PM CDT Wed May 16 2018

Friday: The shortwave over MO Thu will exit off to the east with
weak 500mb height rises through the day. Can't rule out some
isolated convection given the instability, but the best chance for
any convection will likely be over the far sw cwfa where overall
moisture will be higher with pwats just under 1.5 inches.

Saturday-Sunday: The upper level shortwave ridge will shift east
of the area but guidance is having trouble resolving small scale
features and the placement of a sfc cold front over/near the
area. The ECMWF moves a sfc front through Sat night/early Sunday
while the GFS holds this front back to the west. In general the
pattern favors an uptick in rain chances either way, but don't
have a lot confidence in timing/placement of convection.

Monday-Wednesday: The upper ridge is suppressed to the south with
modest westerlies aloft. The GFS is far more bullish with precip
versus the ECMWF with more moisture in place. In general, our late
Spring type pattern looks to continue.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Thursday afternoon)
Issued at 1213 PM CDT Wed May 16 2018

KSGF/KJLN/KBBG tafs: A weak slow moving upper level disturbance
will kick off isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms in
the near term. Some of this may persist well past 00z. Outside of
thunderstorms, some cumulus vfr or mvfr ceilings will be possible
over the next few hours with light winds.
