AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Kansas City/Pleasant Hill MO
1129 AM CDT Tue Apr 30 2019

.Update...
Issued at 1129 AM CDT TUE APR 30 2019

The combination of the MCS that moved through the area this
morning, the warm front just to our south, and renewed
shower/storm development in south central KS and southwest KS,
will help to keep the area clouded over. This will really limit
surface based instability. Forecast soundings for later this
afternoon and this evening do show some elevated instability
developing. Latest convection allowing models are doing a decent
job handling the multiple areas of showers/storms. But they are
all in agreement in moving in a line of storms late this afternoon
through early this evening, approximately 23Z-03Z. With the
instability the models are showing, this time frame may be the
best chance for anything severe, with some hail and strong winds
possible.

Today will be an active day with multiple rounds of different
threats to the area as a shortwave trough ejects out into the
southern plains. Currently the LLJ is helping to create isentropic
accent along an elevated warm frontal boundary from central OK up
into NW MO. A MUCAPE axis of 750-1000 J/kg will allow elevated
convection to occur along this boundary as it progresses to the NE.
Effective bulk shear of 35-40kts along this boundary may allow some
of these storms to intensify to severe levels, as we had one cell
already show that potential near KMCI this morning. While isolated
large hail is possible the main impact from this line of storms will
be heavy downpours with PWAT values near 1.5" and rain rates of up to
1" per hour. This developing MCS will push through eastern KS and
western MO around sunrise and may cause some impacts to any morning
commutes. 1 hr flash flood guidance over this area is around 1.75"
with 3 hour leaning towards 2.25".  These values do have the
possibility of being exceeded so flash flooding will need to be
monitored with this first passing MCS, especially over the KC Metro
area. This MCS looks to push east by the late morning and the timing
of this exit will have an effect on how the rest of the day plays
out. As the upper level shortwave trough exits into the southern
plains the surface warm front over OK will begin to undergo
frontogenesis and lift to the north towards our area. Almost all of
our uncertainty with the severe weather potential this afternoon
will lie on how far north this boundary will get by sunrise.

Model guidance does not have a consensus with the CAMs indicating it
will reach just south of HWY50, while the GFS and ECMWF push it up
into the Missouri River. We are leaning on the southern solution
being more accurate as a large cold pool is likely to form due to
the morning MCS and cloud coverage all day is going to make it
difficult for us to destabilize throughout the day and possibly
stall that northern movement of the warm front. While there is
uncertainty on the placement of the front, the type and intensity of
the severe weather in regards to this boundary will be similar, so
monitoring the frontal evolution in the early afternoon will set up
the threats we may have to deal with. On the cold side of the warm
front elevated supercells may be possible with MUCAPE ~1500 J/kg and
0-6km bulk shear of 40-50kts. The main threat in this region will be
large hail and heavy rainfall. In the warm sector of this system the
main threat will be discrete supercells with ~1500-2000 J/kg of
MLCAPE (depending on how much heating we get) and 0-6km bulk shear
of 40-45kts. Outside of the large hail threat there will be a low
chance for some damaging winds in wet microbursts, but there will
also be a threat for tornadoes. Hodographs on modeled soundings
indicate nice anticyclonic curvature with 0-1km SRH 200-300, 0-1km
bulk shear of 25-30kts, and LCL heights 50-100m. If a supercell can
get going in this environment conditions will be primed for rain-
wrapped tornadoes that would develop quickly. This threat looks to
be very short-lived as the window for any destabilization in the
warm sector before sunset is narrow and would likely be after 3pm
until sunset. Going through current guidance this threat looks to
stay south of the KC Metro and more from Butler to Sedalia, unless
this boundary can push further north than expected. As this threat
diminishes the next threat will start to develop over eastern Kansas
as a line of storms and possible QLCS in the last afternoon. This
feature looks to quickly push through our area with the main threat
being damaging winds and maybe isolated large hail.  Fortunately for
our area the 0-3km bulk shear vectors are more SW-NE oriented which
should decrease the wind and tornado threat. The most likely area to
see higher winds will be once again south of the KC Metro in that
same corridor of Butler to Sedalia and into the Lake of the Ozarks.
Flash flooding will need to be monitored very closely in the late
afternoon as saturated soils will lead to quick runoff and potential
life threatening conditions depending on how much training of storms
an area gets. This QLCS looks to quickly push to the east after
sunset and may even be out of our area by midnight.

The cold front associated with this system looks to stall down
through central MO on Wednesday. A series of upper level shortwaves
may help develop another round of possible severe weather, mainly
over southern MO but could reach into our southern counties from
Butler to Sedalia once again. The main threat with these storms
looks to be large hail and damaging winds with DCAPE value near 1200
J/kg, fortunately the effective bulk shear will be more like 20-
25kts decreasing the chance for supercell formation and more likely
to see multicell development along that boundary. With how much
rainfall this area is likely to get in the next 24 hours flash
flooding will once again need to be monitored going into Thursday.
North of this boundary elevated storms may bring some lighter QPF
into the area, but any severe threat or flash flooding look low
going into Thursday morning.

High pressure finally builds into the area Friday into Saturday
drying out the area and allowing us to get into the 70s on Saturday.
A cold front moving through the northern plains may result in us
getting some remnant showers Sunday morning form an MCS over
Nebraska. This boundary may linger into the beginning of the work
week and provide spotting rain chances through Tuesday.

Issued at 1129 AM CDT TUE APR 30 2019

IFR ceilings are expected to persist throughout the forecast.
Models suggest the next round of storms may be in the 23Z-03Z time
frame late this afternoon/early this evening. Confidence was high
enough to include a TSRA tempo group during this time frame. Winds
will eventually shift to the north late this evening and to the
northwest early tomorrow morning.

 of 1 to 3 inches will be possible through tonight under the
 heaviest activity. These rains will lead to an increasing flash
 flood threat across the region.

 Severe storms are also possible Tuesday afternoon, with large hail,
 damaging winds, and isolated tornadoes all being possible. The most
 likely locations for severe weather will be along and south of the
 Route 50 corridor.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Wednesday through Monday

 Thunderstorms will remain possible Wednesday and Wednesday night.
