Severe Thunderstorm Warning 273, NWS Springfield, MO

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Springfield MO
1218 AM CDT Tue Aug 13 2019

...Updated for 06Z Aviation Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)

It was a hot and muggy day over extreme southeast Kansas and the
Missouri Ozarks. Temperatures warmed into the 90s under mostly
sunny skies. Dew points were in the mid 70s, creating heat index
values ranging from 100 to 110 degrees.

A Heat Advisory will remain in effect through early this evening.

For tonight, as a frontal boundary sags through the Ozarks,
showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop. Many locations
will remain dry, however, a few of these storms could become
marginally severe, with 60 mph wind gusts being the primary risk.

Storms should exit the region Tuesday morning. Cooler and drier
air will filter in, with highs in the middle and upper 80s
tomorrow. A few locations across southern Missouri could reach 90
prior to the front getting all the way into Arkansas.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday)

A drier continental airmass will be overhead across the Ozarks
through most of the next several days. This will offer relief
from the heat, although, we will still experience temps in the
middle and upper 80s. Much lower dew points will make the air feel
more comfortable.

Precipitation chances through the upcoming weekend and into next
work week looks pretty limited. Given the drier continental air
and the lack of any forcing mechanisms, a mostly dry forecast is
expected into next week. There is a signal for a possible
overnight storm complex Friday morning and again on Saturday,
however, those rain chances are very uncertain at this time.

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Tuesday night)
Issued at 1218 AM CDT Tue Aug 13 2019

A cold front was making its way towards the area, with scattered
storms out ahead of it now entering western and central Missouri.
This activity looks to impact the KJLN and KSGF taf sites between
08Z-12Z and covered this with a tempo group. Short term models
indicate this activity may diminish before it makes it as far
south as KBBG. Flight conditions through 12Z will mainly be VFR,
although lower MVFR conditions are likely in and near the storms.
Otherwise, rather quiet weather is expected after the front pushes
through with light northwest winds and VFR flight conditions.
