.SHORT TERM...(Today through Monday night)
Issued at 340 AM CDT Sun Jun 23 2019

Still another 36 hours to go with the mcs train that has brought
plenty of wind and rain to our region. The main concern for today
is the potential of another linear mcs / squall line. The day is
starting off surprisingly unstable given the widespread convection
Saturday. Mucapes were 2000 plus as of 08z, and 20 to 30 kt of low
level southwest flow is advecting even higher instability into
our region. A cluster of storms was occurring in southwest Indiana
and nw Kentucky at 08z. These storms will exit the region early
this morning.

Widespread convection over the Ozarks at 08z appears to be
associated with a weak mid-level impulse moving east-northeast.
The href mean 500 mb wind fields depict this impulse quite well.
A 500 mb jet streak around 40 kt is shown crossing southern IL
this afternoon. There is very strong model agreement that a round
of convection will occur today. The usual issues with any mcs are
when, where, and what convective mode.

Based on the high-res cam models, it appears the convective mode
will be another linear mcs. These models will seldom if ever
agree on the specific timing and placement of any given mcs, and
today is no exception. Based on the timing of the parent 500 mb
impulse, one would expect the mcs to reach se Missouri by late
this morning, then track east across wrn Kentucky and srn
Illinois/sw Indiana this afternoon. This would be during the time
of max heating and peak instability. Given the strong buoyancy,
shear profiles are forecast to be quite favorable for organized
updrafts. The nam indicates 30 to 40 kt through a deep layer (850
to 500 mb). The potential exists for a robust squall line across
the region.

Tonight and Monday, the primary upper level trough will swing
northeast across the Mississippi Valley to the Great Lakes region.
A 300 mb jet streak around 90 kt will lift northeast across the
mid/upper Mississippi Valley early Monday. The models indicate
another surge of rain and convection late tonight, associated with
the strong upper level forcing. Heavy rainfall with this round of
rain on top of moist ground could result in some flooding issues.
Surface instability may be tapped out by late tonight, suggesting
limited severe weather potential after 06z. However, low level
winds below 850 mb will crank up to around 40 knots. Precip will
diminish Monday and Monday night as the upper shortwave departs
our region.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Saturday)
Issued at 340 AM CDT Sun Jun 23 2019

Heights will be on the rise Tuesday through Wednesday, but H5 flow
will still have a westerly component. Cannot rule out slight chances
of convection, mainly across southern sections of the region (west
KY into SEMO), where moisture is forecast to be higher. In fact,
there seems to be a transition in the models, suggesting less of a
ridge influence, and more of a weakness (Low) that wants to persist
from the lower MS Valley region northward. This signal suggests at
least daytime/afternoon small convective chances each day on into
the weekend. NBM 6 hour PoPs seem too low. Fairly significant
differences in the mid trop flow forecast this weekend. Like WPC,
favor more ensemble incorporation into the forecast that far out,
given greater uncertainty. Temperatures are forecast to be near
normal for this time of year.

.AVIATION...
Issued at 134 PM CDT Sun Jun 23 2019

Outside of tstm activity, a southerly to southwesterly low level
flow, generally sustained AOB 12 knots, will continue through the 24
hour TAF period. VFR conditions are forecast outside of shower and
tstm activity, with the possible exception of some MVFR cigs Mon
morning. Best guess is for lines of activity and other scattered
activity to be concentrated in the Pennyrile region of KY and
southeastern MO early this afternoon. As the afternoon goes on, it
appears the western storms will probably make it all the way across
mainly southern parts of the region, including southernmost IL and
western KY. Brief IFR conditions are likely with this activity,
mainly due to reductions in vsby. Gusty winds are also likely with
convection. Shower and tstm activity should wane significantly by
early evening.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight

The potential exists for multiple rounds of strong to
severe thunderstorms to move east across our region through the
afternoon and early evning. The main hazards will be damaging winds
and large hail. Torrential rainfall is also likely, which could pose
some localized flash flooding. The tornado riask is low, but not
zero.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday

Thunderstorms will decrease in coverage on Monday. There is a
slight chance of thunderstorms from mid week on into the weekend.
Thunderstorms during the workweek are not expected to be severe.
