Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Springfield MO 216 AM CDT Wed Jun 19 2019 .SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight) Issued at 230 AM CDT Wed Jun 19 2019 Two areas of showers and thunderstorms continue to move across the region this morning. First, an area of activity across the eastern half of the CWA continues to push off towards the east posing no hazardous threats. The second area of interest through the early morning hours is associated with a convergent boundary across southeastern Kansas. This boundary in conjunction with moist advection from the Southern Plains poses a short term flash flooding threat as storms continue to train into far southeastern Kansas and west central Missouri. There is a strong focus on potential flash flooding in this area as rainfall over the past week has resulted in highly saturated soil. This threat will continue to be monitored through the early morning hours. As overnight activity comes to end by mid morning, a rather strong shortwave begins to translate across the Central Plains into the Middle Mississippi Valley. This shortwave energy will result in a surface low tracking across the Interstate 70 corridor through the early afternoon hours. The current trends of CAM models suggest storms will fire along a cold front boundary by the mid afternoon hours. At this time, the environmental setup looks favorable for several scattered strong to severe storms with the greatest risk along and southeast of Interstate 44. A key factor in the environmental setup will be daytime heating allowing an unstable atmosphere to develop across the region as temperatures climb into the upper 70s to lower 80s across the Ozarks. Current models suggest MLCAPE values of 1500-2000 J/kg and low-level moisture will advance out ahead of the frontal boundary. Additionally, adequate shear ranging from 30-35 knots supports organized updraft development. Given this setup, thunderstorm development will be multicellular in nature posing a wind and hail risk. The threat for these scattered strong to severe storms will exist from early afternoon across the western CWA through the early evening hours across the eastern half of the CWA. Lastly, it should be noted that there is marginal risk for excessive rainfall with these storms given the efficiency to produce heavy downpours, especially in areas that have already seen sufficient rainfall this week. .LONG TERM...(Thursday through Wednesday) Issued at 230 AM CDT Wed Jun 19 2019 Looking ahead to Thursday, rising heights and a building ridge to our east will result in drier and warmer weather. By Friday into Saturday high temperatures will climb into the upper 80s to lower 90s across the Ozarks. In addition to the warmer temperatures, dewpoints climbing into the lower 70s will be a prime recipe for sticky weather across the Ozarks with heat indicies pushing into the upper 90s. As we settle into a southwest flow pattern by Saturday, a few lobes of vorticity will translate through the central CONUS bringing a chance for scattered showers and thunderstorms late Saturday into Sunday, and once again on Monday. Model continue to differ on exact solutions, thus vary on timing and location of potential rainfall into early next week. As the large scale trough transitions across the central CONUS early next week there may be additional concerns for flooding potential, but need to be evaluated further in future forecasts. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday night) Issued at 1215 AM CDT Wed Jun 19 2019 An area of scattered showers and thunderstorms continues to move through the region this evening and overnight tonight. Expect the potential for thunderstorms at KBBG during the early part of the TAF period. This chance for scattered thunderstorms increases during the 08Z-12Z timeframe for all other TAF sites. Looking ahead, winds will change from southerly overnight to westerly. Wind gusts up 20 knots can be expected at KBBG and KSGF during the afternoon hours. Overall, VFR conditions will prevail through the morning hours into the afternoon will a few instances of lower visibilities and flight conditions within any showers and thunderstorms. && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
