Area Forecast Discussion...Updated Aviation
National Weather Service Saint Louis MO
723 PM CDT Wed Aug 3 2022

.SHORT TERM...  (Through Late Thursday Night)
Issued at 322 PM CDT Wed Aug 3 2022

Key Messages:

1) While dangerous heat indexes will persist for another few hours
in some areas, the primary concern the rest of the night will be
widespread showers and thunderstorms, which will move slowly
through the area between now and mid morning tomorrow. The primary
hazards associated with this storms are expected to be occasional
damaging wind gusts and localized flash flooding.

As of 2:30 PM, numerous thunderstorms developed across parts of
eastern Missouri and west-central Illinois, with early afternoon
convective initiation triggered by a combination of strong surface
heating ahead of a surging outflow boundary. These storms are
developing within a strongly unstable environment, featuring
MLCAPE values ranging from 2500 to as much as 4000 J/kg and
largely driven by the very warm and humid boundary layer. On the
other hand, bulk shear values are rather weak where these storms
have developed, likely less than 25kt from 0-6km. Given these
general parameters, thunderstorms in this initial round will
likely struggle to become organized, and will likely remain as
semi-discrete clusters until cold pool interactions potentially
drive upscale growth into a more linear complex. However, there
are some suggestions that these storms may be capable of producing
severe downbursts, including very high DCAPE and Microburst
Composite values. As such, a Severe Thunderstorm Watch as been
issued for a large portion of the area this afternoon through 8 PM
this evening. Aside from damaging wind gusts, occasional large
hail is also possible, along with bursts of very heavy rain rates.

As the evening progresses, storms will likely continue to grow
upscale, with perhaps additional rounds of thunderstorms developing
upstream from this initial activity. While storm motions will
largely be west to east, the larger region of thunderstorm activity
will spread southward slowly as it grows in coverage. As this
occurs, the primary hazard is expected to transition from a damaging
wind threat to a heavy rain and flash flooding threat, as storms
will likely continue to be extremely efficient rain producers even
if they loose a bit of strength in terms of wind gusts. Warm cloud
depths of around 4.5km, anomalously high precipitable water values
of 2 to 2.5 inches, and Corfidi vector orientations that support
westward back-building will all enhance the potential for locally
heavy rain, both in terms of instantaneous rates (2+" inches per
hour at times) and potential training of storms. As such, a broad
area of 1 to 3 inch rain accumulations is likely, with locally
higher amounts of 3 to 6 inches possible as well. The most
consistent signal for the heaviest rain totals has been across the
Ozarks region, but more recent trends suggest that these locally
higher amounts will be possible farther north across areas like
south-central Illinois and even potentially the St. Louis metro
area. While some of these areas could still use more rain to
alleviate drought conditions and should be receptive to water, other
areas have seen copious rainfall over the last several days. The
latter may pose an increased risk of flash flooding should storms
move over these areas.

In any case, convection will slowly spread south to southeast
through the overnight hours, and gradually taper off during the
early to mid morning tomorrow. Meanwhile, a weak cold front will
shift into the area from the north and stall tomorrow, providing
some modest heat relief. While this will be enough to bring
temperatures down to near normal values, the front will stall
somewhere north of the I-70 line, leaving in place a modified but
still rather humid airmass. As such, afternoon heating tomorrow may
be enough to generate a few more afternoon thunderstorms, likely
much weaker and more scattered in nature given the weakly sheared
environment and lack of a major forcing mechanism.

BRC

.LONG TERM...  (Friday through Next Wednesday)
Issued at 322 PM CDT Wed Aug 3 2022

On Friday and Saturday, an upper level ridge is expected to slowly
amplify and nudge eastward into the Mississippi Valley region,
prompting a gradual warming and drying trend. While a few isolated
showers will again be possible Friday afternoon, most likely across
parts of southwest Illinois, by Saturday precipitation chances will
likely shift to the east of the area. But while we will finally lose
the potential for additional noteworthy precipitation, the tradeoff
is likely to be another round of heat and humidity Saturday and
Sunday afternoons, with heat index values likely to climb above 100
degrees on both days yet again.

Sunday night and beyond, confidence is increasing that another cold
front will sink into the area as a shortwave moves through the Great
Lakes region. While there remain timing uncertainties, ensemble
guidance has increasingly indicated that we will likely return to a
convectively active period early next week. While there remains
considerable variability among members, a majority now support
widespread rainfall between Monday night and Tuesday as this
boundary sinks into the area. This pattern also suggests a cooling
trend overall, although ensemble temperature forecast spreads
increase dramatically Monday and beyond, reflecting the high degree
of variation in the passage and strength of the cold front.

BRC

&&

.AVIATION...  (For the 00z TAFs through 00z Thursday Evening)
Issued at 716 PM CDT Wed Aug 3 2022

While most local terminals have reached a lull in convective
activity at the start of the 00Z TAf period, although scattered
showers continue to move through the area. However, redeveloping
thunderstorms are expected during the late evening and early
overnight hours. Confidence is somewhat lower now that local
terminals will be impacted by this second round of storms, but
chances are high enough for mention at COU/JEF and the St. Louis
area terminals. Ceiling and visibility reductions are the most
likely hazards with these storms, along with erratic wind gusts,
should they impact any terminal directly. Showers should move
south and east of the area during the morning hours Thursday.

Widely scattered showers and a few thunderstorms may also develop
in the vicinity of St. Louis tomorrow afternoon, but confidence is
low regarding timing and coverage.
