...00Z Aviation Update...

Key Messages:

1. Showers and thunderstorms tonight with some strong to severe
storms possible.

2. Some minor wintry mix potential in north late tonight into
Thursday morning.

3. Cold wind chills Thursday night into Friday morning.

4. Elevated to significant fire weather potential on Saturday.

5. Potential of additional rain chances next week, however models
and ensemble data showing significant differences right now.

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 216 PM CST Wed Feb 15 2023

Water vapor shows an upper level low spinning across the four
corners region of the Great Basin early this afternoon, with the
best moisture plume from the deep south into the Tennessee valley.
Southwest flow aloft was occurring ahead of the low across the
plains and lower to mid Mississippi valley. A frontal boundary was
bisecting the CWA near the I-44 corridor and extending southwest
into a low pressure system in the Texas panhandle. Some surface
based instability starting to develop along our southeastern most
CWA boundary in the warm sector, where temperatures were in the
mid 60s.

The low in TX is expected to lift northeast along the frontal
boundary tonight, with the front remaining fairly stationary
initially. Showers may start developing over the southwest CWA
between 00z and 02z this evening as the low lifts into eastern
Oklahoma. As the low lifts north into MO, dewpoints southeast of
the low track over south central MO may rise into the mid to upper
50s with instability increasing there. The best chances for
thunderstorms will arrive as the low lifts north into southern MO
from late evening through around 5 AM. A few of the storms may
become strong to severe with hail to quarter size and damaging
wind gusts up to 60 mph the main risks. The low should lift
northeast out of the CWA by 12z Thu. Most of the area will see a
dry slow moving in behind the main batch of showers/thunderstorms
on Thursday. The main swath of precipitation on the cold side of
the low is expected to remain north of the CWA, although some
wintry mix will be possible early Thursday morning in portions of
central MO. Little to no impact from wintry weather is expected in
our CWA.

Temperatures behind the low track should fall to the upper 20s to
near freezing tonight and will probably not rise much on Thursday.
The colder air will gradually push southeast across the area on
Thursday with those areas in south central MO mostly seeing
falling temperatures during the day.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday Night through Wednesday)
Issued at 216 PM CST Wed Feb 15 2023

The upper level through will shift east through the area on
Thursday night, but much drier air will be in place so no
precipitation is expected as this occurs. Surface high pressure
will be building into the area and nighttime lows will dip into
the teens (northwest) to the mid 20s (southeast). Wind chills on
Friday morning will be in the teens, with some upper single digits
possible.

The colder than normal temperatures will continue into Friday as
the surface ridge moves over the area. Highs will generally range
from around 40 to the mid 40s.

The cold will be short-lived though with upper ridging and low
level southerly flow developing Friday night into Saturday. Models
are bringing in a shortwave from the southwest during the day on
Saturday. GFS seems aggressive with the QPF with this feature
given the very dry initial conditions and seems to saturate too
quickly. Other models are generally keeping things dry along
with the NBM and see no reason at this point to stray from that
output. It does bring some gusty winds to the CWA on Saturday
along with afternoon RH values dipping into the 30's for some
elevated to some significant fire weather conditions showing up in
the GHWO.

The weekend should see a warming trend continue with temperatures
warming back to above normal/well above normal readings in the low
50s Saturday and upper 50s to low 60s on Sunday.

More significant model differences are starting to show up as we
head into next week, especially into Tuesday and Wednesday. There
could be some precipitation moving back into the area during the
first half of next week, however some model outputs are not
showing much of anything in our CWA. Large temperature differences
are showing up in the NBM over the first few days of next work
week, so confidence is pretty low overall with the later stages of
the long term period at this point. For now, stuck with the NBM
deterministic which keeps above normal temperatures in until
Wednesday and low pops gradually increasing Tuesday into
Wednesday.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Thursday evening)
Issued at 527 PM CST Wed Feb 15 2023

Low pressure moving northeast out of Texas and Oklahoma will lead
to scattered showers and some thunderstorms moving into the area
from mid evening through the mid overnight hours, affecting the
TAF sites from roughly 04Z to 09Z. Have opted to go with TEMPO
groups during this timeframe due to the scattered nature of the
convection. MVFR ceilings will also move in with this
precipitation late this evening into the overnight hours, with IFR
ceilings possible at the TAF sites during the second half of the
overnight hours into Thursday morning.

Northeast winds will back to northwesterly by early Thursday
morning as the low pressure center moves across southwestern
Missouri, with gusty northwest winds up to 15 to 25 knots from
Thursday morning through Thursday evening.
