Area forecast discussion, Apr 21, 12:03 PM CDT, 1 hour 15 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Springfield MO 1203 PM CDT Thu Apr 21 2022 ...18Z AVIATION UPDATE... Key Messages: 1. Thunderstorm and strong/severe risk today. 2. Warmer temperatures today into Saturday. 3. Windy conditions on Friday. 4. Excessive rainfall risk Saturday into Sunday along a slow moving cold front. .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 232 AM CDT Thu Apr 21 2022 A frontal boundary was bisecting the area over southern Missouri and has been the focus for shower and thunderstorm development during the late evening into the overnight hours. Dew points were in the mid to upper 50s south of the front with about 1500-2000 j/kg of elevated CAPE. Had some large hail earlier and starting to see additional scattered convection developing over northeast OK into southwest MO. Southern MO will be the focus area for additional convection during the remainder of the overnight into early Thursday morning. Should gradually see the front lift during the day with the coverage of convection diminishing over the area. There is still a risk of some hail with the stronger storms that can develop with the front in the area and elevated instability. Highs will be tricky today with the cloud cover and front beginning to lift northward. Have toned down from the NBM initialization and gone with more of a CONSSHORT/CONSALl blend for highs today which is in the low to mid 70s. By early evening the front will have lifted into the northern portion of the CWA and the main convection will shift to north of the area as a low level jet develops over the area. Some convection will be possible in our northern CWA near the front, but the higher pops and main severe chances will be north and west of the area. Higher dewpoints will lift north into the area and lows tonight will be mild in the low to mid 60s. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday) Issued at 232 AM CDT Thu Apr 21 2022 On Friday, the upper level ridge will be over the area and will see the surface pressure gradient tighten up over the plains and western CWA as low pressure over the eastern Rockies and high plains begins to strengthen. We could see some wind gusts of 35 to 40 mph over the western CWA during the day. We should remain in the warm sector during on Friday with the warm front well north of the area. Highs are expected to reach the low 80s over most of the area. Main convection will remain west of the area. The dry line will move into the central plains on Friday night, but again the convection should remain west of the area. Lows will again be mild with readings in the low to mid 60s. Convection could start moving into the area later in the day on Saturday well out ahead of the dryline and cold front. This feature will be slow to move through the area through early Monday with a chance of training convection given the upper level flow aligning with the cold front. This is setting up for an excessive rainfall event from late Saturday into Monday morning. A cooler and drier air mass will push in behind the convection on Monday with highs returning back to the 60s into the middle of next week. Generally dry conditions are expected after this weekends system moves through. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon) Issued at 1139 AM CDT Thu Apr 21 2022 Ceilings and visibilities will continue to rise as the fog from early this morning has lifted, and current MVFR conditions at KJLN and IFR at KBBG are expected to improve by this afternoon. Some scattered showers will be possible today as a frontal passage lifts north. Breezy south-southeast winds are expected today through tomorrow, with gusts up to 20 kts possible today, and up to 30 kts tomorrow. Otherwise, once the front lifts north of the area this evening, dry conditions are expected for the remainder of the TAF period. && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MO...NONE.
