.SHORT TERM...  (Through Late Tonight)
Issued at 245 AM CDT Fri Jun 21 2019

An MCS over southern Nebraska and northern Kansas will move eastward
into northeast MO later this morning, likely after 15Z.  Although it
should be gradually weakening by this time, there may still be the
potential for strong wind gusts.  At the same time isolated to
scattered convection will develop across central and southeast MO
just ahead of a warm front which will be advancing northeastward
through our forecast area today.  The MCS will continue to move
eastward through west central IL early this afternoon with new
convection likely developing along the outflow boundary extending
southwest of the MCS this afternoon as the atmosphere becomes quite
unstable after passage of the warm front as the surface dewpoints
continue to rise.  The only limiting factor for the development of
additional convection this afternoon into this evening is the warm
mid level temperatures as an upper level ridge develops over MO with
700 mb temperatures rising to around 12-14 degrees C.  High
temperatures will be warmer today, particularly across central and
southeast MO.  Another nocturnal MCS is possible across northeast MO
and west central IL later tonight, along and north of a warm front
extending from northern MO southeast into southern IL, and on the
northern and eastern periphery of the mid level cap.  Warmer low
temperatures can be expected tonight, especially across central and
southeast MO due to southerly surface winds along with relatively
high surface dew points.

.LONG TERM...  (Saturday through Thursday)
Issued at 245 AM CDT Fri Jun 21 2019

Focus at the beginning of this period will be temperatures and
resultant heat index values.

Upper ridge builds into the region with deep SW flow over the
region. Models have another round of storms tonight that linger into
Sat morning, mainly across northern portions of the CWA. Exactly
what happens beyond this is less certain. Convection could push the
effective boundary south of the region, or potentially leave a
boundary through the middle of the CWA. Any convective debris should
clear by the afternoon, but a fair amount of CU may develop during
the afternoon hours. Any residual outflow boundary would likely help
dewpoints pool along the boundary. Areas of more insolation should
help lower dewpoints as deeper mixing occurs. In addition to the
dewpoint questions are the issues with temperatures. A major factor
will be any outflow boundary in addition to convection developing in
the afternoon. Generally went with a temp forecast above the median
value, resulting in heat index values around 100 degrees mainly
through central portions of the CWA.

Best chances for precip remain Sat night and Sun as an upper trof
and a number of s/w approach the region. PoPs may need to be raised
for Mon as well, but this will depend upon development of any
surface wave with this system. Upper level flow will become more
zonal through Wed before some weak ridging builds into the area.
Will keep low PoPs thru the remainder of the period with enough
moisture and instability for a threat of storms, but little in the
way to focus convection.

Expect temps to be cooler thru Tues with lower heights across the
region, then warming into the upper 80s around 90 thru the end of
the period as heights rise across the region.

.AVIATION...  (For the 18z TAFs through 18z Saturday Afternoon)
Issued at 131 PM CDT Fri Jun 21 2019

Convective complexes currently rolling through the forecast area
are expected to exit by late this afternoon. This should result in
an interlude before low level jet can re-ignite convection further
north across northern MO initially with this convection then
dropping southeastward overnight, affecting all of the TAF sites
before exiting early Saturday morning.
