AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Kansas City/Pleasant Hill MO
621 PM CDT Thu Jul 4 2019

.Short Term...(This Evening through Saturday Night)
Issued at 258 PM CDT THU JUL 4 2019

A well defined MCV has moved into western Missouri this
afternoon. Forcing on the eastern, leading edge of the MCV has
lead to scattered to widespread showers and storms across central
Missouri. Modest instability exist ahead of the MCV and as a
result will help this activity persist into the evening hours as
the whole system tracks eastward with time. For eastern Kansas and
western Missouri, there should be subsidence on the back side of
the MCV, helping to lead to a decrease in coverage of rain. The
rain cooled air has also led to more stable environment with
cooler temperatures in the 70s and lower 80s. It's still humid,
with dewpoints in the lower to middle 70s. For Fourth of July
celebrations in eastern Kansas and western Missouri, conditions
should be drying out. But ahead of the MCV, in central to
northeastern Missouri, the threat of showers and storms will
persist into the evening with man-made fireworks competing with
Mother Nature's fireworks. Overnight, the low level jet will
increase again and may lead to renewed convection in our
southeastern zones. Have placed highest PoPs for the overnight
time frame in this area. Friday's weather will be greatly
dependent on what happens overnight, so confidence isn't very
high. But have carried chance PoPs through the day with what looks
new convection along a weak boundary/ convergence area showing up
in the model surface projections.

.Long Term...(Sunday through Thursday)
Issued at 258 PM CDT THU JUL 4 2019

With a flattening upper level ridge across the northern Central
Plains and no strong surface troughing, there seems to be no
strong upper level forcing mechanisms throughout this weekend.
However, with summertime surface heating and relative weak cap
across the region, rain and possible scattered thunderstorms
cannot be ruled out of the forecast. Models seem to have different
interpretations of the precipitation chances this weekend
however, timing tends to be focused on the morning to afternoon
with the daytime surface heating effects.

Early next week, a weak ridging pattern occurs to the north of the
area decreasing the chances for potential rain and scattered
thunderstorms. However, some models favored potential isentropic
lift in western Missouri/Kansas City area which could create some
isolated showers. Further down the week, the upper level ridge
weakens some. This can create higher potentials for showers and
a few thunderstorms. This will be interesting to monitor over the
next several days on how strong this ridge comes throughout next
week.

.Aviation...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday Evening)
Issued at 621 PM CDT THU JUL 4 2019

VFR conditions prevail at the terminals this hour, and will likely
prevail for much of the next 24 hours, but scattered storms early
Friday morning and again late Friday afternoon may get in the way
for brief periods. Otherwise, expect light and variable winds
overnight to then prevail form the south for much of the day
Friday.
