.SHORT TERM...  (Through Late Saturday Afternoon)
Issued at 343 PM CDT Fri Sep 27 2019

An active night still appears on tap across the northern CWA.
Thinking hasn't changed all that much and the biggest question is
when thunderstorms will actually move into northeast MO and west
central IL. The scenario remains the same. The air mass in
advance of the front across the northern CWA is quite unstable
owing to steep mid level lapse rates, diurnal heating, and
boundary layer moistening with SBCAPE of 3000-4000 j/kg. The
latest GOES RGBs show the cumulus field from northwest MO into
southeast IA slowly deepening in advance of the cold front and
that would appear to eventually be the genesis zone of
thunderstorms. There is also the possibility of initiation along
the western portion of an outflow boundary stretching across
extreme northeast MO into central IL to the north of our CWA.

CAMs are quite varied when thunderstorms will move into northeast
MO and west central within our CWA but the consensus is the
00-02z time frame, and this seems reasonable given the above
observations. Deep layer shear and instability is still supportive
of supercells through 04-05z with a predominant hail threat, and
lesser wind and tornado threat. Mergers and continued storm
developmentalong the advancing cold front is expected to result
in the upscale growth into an elongated complex of multiple modes
by late evening with a continued hail and increasing wind threat.
I have issued a flash flood watch for northeast MO and west
central IL where there continues to be a threat of locally heavy
rain and localized flash flooding due to: anomalously high PW
values of 1.5 to 2.0 inches supporting high rainfall rates and
deep layer flow paralleling the boundary supporting the potential
for training storms.

There is still uncertainty how far south the actual cold front and
showers and thunderstorms will progress tonight, and I am mainly
speaking overnight. The majority of the deterministic models still
sag the front to a central MO to a central IL axis by daybreak
with the possibility of convective outflow even a bit further
south. Precipitation probabilities are largely unchanged with at
some point showers and storms likely into central MO, and a
chance of scattered to isolated storms into St. Louis and far
south central IL. This later activity may be a result of outflow
generation from the complex further north.

The boundary stalls from central MO into south central IL on
Saturday and its presence along with any residual outflows
continue to support a chance of storms with the greatest potential
in the vicinity of the front itself. The best time frames would be
the first part of the morning from lingering overnight activity
and then in the afternoon owing to diurnal instability. North of
the front the temperatures should be quite a bit cooler than today
with considerable cloud cover including post-frontal stratus,
while south of the front temperatures remain well above average
but are tempered some by cloud cover.

.LONG TERM...  (Saturday Night through Next Friday)
Issued at 343 PM CDT Fri Sep 27 2019

The cold front remains stalled through central Missouri and south
central Illinois on Saturday evening. Current thinking is that an
MCS will develop across eastern Kansas and western Missouri during
the evening hours and then roll east-northeast through central and
northeast Missouri during the late evening and overnight hours.
The southern extent of precipitation on Saturday night is a bit
vague south of the MCS track which is uncertain in itself.
However, the presence of the front merits a continued chance of
showers and thunderstorms further south.

Saturday night's MCS could end up producing an MCV which would
impact the precipitation chances on Sunday morning. The presence of
the warm frontal boundary and MCV as well as any mesoscale
boundaries keep most of the area in a chance of showers and
thunderstorms during the morning. As Sunday morning progresses the
stalled front begins to migrate northward as a warm front, driven
largely by a building low over the western US and the upper level
ridge over the southeastern US. The warm front should be able to
move northward and out of the area Sunday afternoon and evening,
with diminishing precipitation chances in its wake.

Persistent southwesterly flow aloft and southerly flow at the
surface will dominate the sensible weather late Sunday through
Wednesday. Temperatures will be unseasonably warm, at least 10-15
degrees above normal. The hottest days of this period will be
Sunday to Tuesday with highs in the upper 80s to low 90s, these
highs will push St. Louis close to breaking high temperature
records Monday and Tuesday.

The region remains free of a focusing force for precipitation
through the first half of the next work week, keeping us dry until
the next cold front approaches the area in the Wednesday to Thursday
timeframe. While there is agreement on the approach of a cold front
during the middle of the week, guidance is still split on the exact
movement of the front. The GFS brings the cold front steadily
through our CWA Wednesday afternoon while the EURO slowly moves the
front through central Missouri and southern Illinois Wednesday night
into Thursday. While uncertainty remains as to the timing and
southward progression of the cold front, high temperatures Thursday
and Friday are expected to drop back to seasonable values after the
passage of the cold front, returning to the mid 60s to mid 70s.

.AVIATION...  (For the 00z TAFs through 00z Saturday Evening)
Issued at 614 PM CDT Fri Sep 27 2019

Thunderstorms have formed along a warm front late this afternoon.
These storms will slowly move south, impacting KUIN tonight.
Initially a severe threat will exist, but this threat will
gradually become a heavy rain threat. Showers with isod TS should
reach KCOU late tonight. Winds will have a northerly component
behind the front with MVFR to IFR cigs lingering thru Sat morning.

SPECIFICS FOR KSTL/KSUS/KCPS: VFR and dry thru the period. Winds
will remain southerly thru the period. Wind gusts will diminish
after sunset.
