Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Springfield MO
1136 AM CST Fri Mar 12 2021

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Sunday)

The synoptic pattern is in great shape for excessive rainfall
across extreme southeast Kansas and the Missouri Ozarks. A deep
trough is present over the western United States. A positive
tilted structure to this upper low allowed a sub-tropical plume of
moisture to flow directly over the Ozarks. Meanwhile low level
moisture transport was beginning to co-locate underneath the sub-
tropical plume aloft. This will begin to enhance rainfall rates
across southern Missouri today through Sunday.

Convection is expected to increase in areal coverage across the
region today. Locations that experienced decent rainfall yesterday
will need to be monitored closely for flash flooding as some areas
have saturated soil conditions and elevated streamflows.

Deep moisture will find large amounts of isentropic pressure
advection lift tonight across a widespread area of southern
Missouri and southeast Kansas. Significant flash flooding is
becoming a possibility, and we will upgrade the Hazardous Weather
Outlook to include a significant risk for flash flooding. Our
current regime fits the "Maddox Synoptic Pattern" for flooding
quite well.

Warm advection convection should begin to subside Saturday
afternoon and evening, providing a small break before another
round of showers and thunderstorms approach from the west during
the day on Sunday. This round of rainfall will also be widespread.

Storm total rainfall amounts will range from two to four inches
with localized higher amounts.

The Flood Watch will continue through Saturday and be re-evaluated
at that time for a possible expansion into Sunday.

.LONG TERM...(Monday through Thursday)

Some additional rain showers will be possible on Monday as the
upper level cold core tracks over the region. This rainfall will
be much lighter, and cover less area. Eventually we completely dry
up by Monday evening as the system progresses east of the region.

After a dry and mild day on Tuesday, another system approaches and
brings us another round of rain showers on Wednesday into
Thursday. Given wet antecedent conditions along with elevated
streamflows, we could experience more flooding with this mid week
system.

Zonal flow evolves toward the end of the forecast period with Gulf
moisture returning next weekend. This will likely set the stage
for more rain chances.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday afternoon)
Issued at 1125 AM CST Fri Mar 12 2021

Cloud cover will remain across the region over the next 24 hours
as multiple rounds of rain impact the area. Ceilings will remain
IFR with occasional LIFR possible where heavy rain and
thunderstorms impact area terminals. Where rain does occur
visibilities will be impacted with IFR and LIFR conditions
probable.

A short break in the rain may occur Saturday afternoon and evening
before a cold front makes its way through the region Sunday.
