What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Springfield, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Mar 27, 6:26 PM CDT, 3 hours 1 minute earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 27, 6:26 PM CDT, 3 hours 1 minute before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Springfield MO
626 PM CDT Fri Mar 27 2020

...Updated for the 00Z Aviation Discussion...

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday)
Issued at 304 PM CDT Fri Mar 27 2020

There are several forecast concerns in this time frame. The first is
on severe potential tonight, with winds and fire weather concerns
for Saturday.

12Z SGF sounding shows a rather strong CAP in place, with a AMDAR
sounding out of KTSA showing a capping inversion, but slightly
weaker. CAMS are showing the potential for elevated convection
late this afternoon and early evening, and indeed we are seeing
elevated storms over northeast Oklahoma. If these make it into
the area, hail would be the main threat.

An upper level trough translating across the Rockies has induced a
strengthening surface low now over southeastern Colorado. This low
will pull out in central Kansas by late tonight, with the
attendant warm front draped across central Missouri. This exact
position is still somewhat unclear. A strengthening low level jet,
warm advection and moisture transport will lead to convective
development this evening, mainly in vicinity of the low and warm
front. Although warm sector looks to remain capped, there is a
narrow window over southeast Kansas into central Missouri where
surface based storms are possible. Otherwise, with ample effective
shear and instability will see coverage increase through the
overnight hours, with a hail threat along and north and of the
warm front. At this point greatest severe threat looks to be in
areas north of interstate 44, and perhaps even more so into
central Missouri.

On Saturday, the surface low continues to deepen as it lifts
northeast into Iowa. This will push a cold front through the area
late in the day and early evening. Enough instability and shear is
likely to result in scattered convection across the eastern sections
of the region during the hours, with some strong to severe storms
possible. Of another concern is the strong pressure gradient that
develops around the low, and model guidance showing the potential
for 40 to 45 mph gusts across portions of the region, especially the
western areas. Did consider the potential for a wind advisory, but
after collaboration with neighbors have decided to hold off for now.
Drier air does advect in during the afternoon hours, and combined
with the winds and low relative humidities elevated to significant
fire weather concerns will become an issue. With green-up underway
and recent rain will hold off any any fire headlines at this time.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday Night through Friday)
Issued at 304 PM CDT Fri Mar 27 2020

The intense surface low will push through Great Lakes on Sunday,
with pressure gradient finally relaxing across the area as high
pressure builds in. This will set the stage for quiet weather for
Sunday into Monday. Temperatures behind the system will remain
mild, with highs in the 60s and lows in the 40s.

Another upper level trough will then approach the area from the
southwest later Monday and lift across the area Tuesday. Medium
range models indicate the surface low will pass south of the area
Monday night into Tuesday. This will spread more widespread showers
into the area, and perhaps an isolated thunderstorm on Tuesday. With
the saturated ground and high river water levels, this additional
rain will be a concern for more flooding issues.

This system will push out Tuesday night, with generally quiet
weather then expected and seasonal temperatures with highs in the
upper 50s to lower 60s and lows in the upper 30s to middle 40s.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Saturday evening)
Issued at 626 PM CDT Fri Mar 27 2020

Should see a break in the storms early this evening with VFR
conditions expected. Any remaining storms will exit the eastern
Ozarks in the next few hours. Otherwise, expect more storms later
tonight to develop on a strengthening low level jet and warm
front. This activity will likely remain north of the TAF sites
and only mentioned a Prob30 group at KSGF and KJLN. Otherwise,
southerly winds will pick up late tonight, along with some LLWS.
Winds will really get going 113Z-15Z Saturday with gusts up to 35
knots possible, especially at KJLN. Overall VFR flight conditions
will prevail through the TAF period, with the only exception being
in any convective elements that would impact the terminals.

335 PM CDT Fri Mar 27 2020

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of the Missouri
Ozarks and extreme southeast Kansas.

.DAY ONE...This Afternoon and Tonight.

Weather hazards expected...

  Limited tornado risk.
  Limited hail risk.
  Limited thunderstorm wind damage risk.
  Limited flooding risk.
  Limited lightning risk.

DISCUSSION...

  Isolated to scattered storms will continue over portions of
  southeast Kansas and southwest Missouri late this afternoon and
  evening. The main threat with these will be large hail, with a
  lesser chance of damaging winds.

  Additional storms are expected to develop later this evening from
  Kansas into central and southern Missouri. A narrow window will
  exist when all modes of severe weather will be possible, which
  then will transition to mainly a large hail threat, perhaps as
  large as golfballs. These storms will also produce locally heavy
  rainfall.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Saturday through Thursday.

  For Saturday afternoon, there is an additional chance for a few
  strong to severe thunderstorms east of Highway 65. Large hail and
  damaging wind gusts are the main risks. Non thunderstorm wind
  gusts of 40 to 45 mph will be possible on Saturday with strong
  low pressure moving from the central Plains to the Midwest. Drier
  air filtering into southeast KAnsas and western Missouri will also
  lead to a heightened fire weather risk.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

  Spotter activation may be needed later today or tonight for
  southern Missouri.
