AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Kansas City/Pleasant Hill MO
627 PM CDT Sat Apr 11 2020

.Discussion...
Issued at 237 PM CDT SAT APR 11 2020

Precipitation has largely shifted east out of the forecast area as
of early this afternoon. In the wake of morning convection,
partially cleared skies and breezy southwesterly winds allowed for
temperatures to quickly warm into the 60s and low 70s across the
western half of the CWA. With continued moisture transport, clouds
have quickly filled back into the area over the past couple of
hours, likely limiting temperatures from warming only a few more
degrees for the remainder of the afternoon.

Attention turns to an area of surface convergence expected to evolve
early this evening near the I-70 corridor of eastern Kansas into
western Missouri. This zone will be the most probable area for
convection to develop around/just after sunset, gradually
moving/expanding east-northeastward. Thunderstorms will be an
environment supportive of some severe potential in the form of large
hail and gusty winds, with the greatest chance of severe weather over
eastern Kansas and western Missouri. Eastward extent of instability
will fall out rather abruptly, so expect convection to weaken as
storms develop/move east of the KC Metro. This general area of
convection will shift east of the area prior to sunrise, and outside
of a few scattered showers, may see a lull in activity moving into
Sunday morning. This will change as additional convection forms
along/behind a slowly moving cold front and the approach of strong
large scale ascent associated with the primary upper low ejecting
into the Ozark Plateau. While the entire warm sector will have an
environment to support thunderstorms, the best instability is
projected to remain SW of the CWA over SE KS/SW MO, resulting in the
most robust convection outside of the forecast area. Still cannot
rule out a few storms briefly producing hail up to quarter size.

Post-frontal, temperatures will steadily fall and wind speeds
will rapidly increase. In fact, Sunday night looks downright
unpleasant, with sustained wind speeds of 20-30mph and gusts up to
40mph. Factor in the cool temperatures, wind chills Sunday night
into Monday morning will likely be in the teens.

.Aviation...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Sunday Evening)
Issued at 619 PM CDT SAT APR 11 2020

A busy forecast with multiple rounds of thunderstorms, low
ceilings, frontal passage, and high winds. The first threat
tonight will be a round of strong to severe thunderstorms that
will for up over eastern KS and move into Missouri in the next
hour or two. The storms will stay along and north of the I-35 and
move into north central Missouri over time. High winds and large
hail will be a threat with these storms as they push through.
Storm intensity will lower after 3-4Z with some isolated lightning
possible through 7-8Z. MVFR ceilings will move into the area after
the storms and stick around through the morning timeframe. Low
level moisture advection will continue to lower the clouds with
IFR conditions possible after sunset. A cold front will move
through the area from 18-21Z tomorrow from the NW to the SE. This
front will bring a line of showers and thunderstorms along with a
quick wind shift form S to the NW. With that wind shift will be an
increase in winds quickly with gusts going from 25kts to 35kts by
the afternoon. Winds will be the main impact tomorrow afternoon
with possible peak gusts near 40kts.
