.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 337 AM CDT Wed May 8 2024

Sit and spin upper level low centered across the western Dakotas is
expected to fragment today as one of the main shortwaves rounds the
base of the trough and pushes east tonight into Thursday. Across
eastern Nebraska/eastern Kansas, mid level cloud cover has built
overnight with strong isentropic lift near the 300K surface. Area of
low pressure has moved into south central Kansas into north central
Oklahoma. Warm front with this system has worked into southwestern
Missouri as of 08Z, noted with an increase in moisture (dew points
of 60+ F) south of the boundary. This boundary is expected to
continue to lift north this morning, the increasing low level
moisture is expected to reach the edge of the cap.  With very steep
lapse rates from 700-500 mb and 1-6 km bulk shear values of 40-50
knots overhead, expect storms that develop to be capable of
very large hail (>2" in diameter) and possibly a strong wind
gust or two owing to the mid level dry air. These storms are
expected to move to the eastnortheast around 40 knots, but with
very linear hodographs, there is the potential for splitting
storms with left movers building into the southern portion of
the forecast area (east of I-49 and south of I-70). CAMs suggest
convective initiation between 9-12Z this morning.

Building low level moisture will favor a loaded gun sounding with
increasing instability with the very steep lapse rates remaining
from 700-500 mb (in excess of 8 C/km).  If the atmosphere is able to
become capped for a time frame ahead of an approaching short
wave, CAPE values may approach 1500-2000 J/kg with the strong
shear remaining. Storms this afternoon could be closer to being
surface based, bringing all severe hazards into play.
Positioning of the boundary will be critical in terms of
figuring out the precise threat area, but the greatest threat
appears to be east of a line from Harrisonville MO to
Chillicothe and areas east. For forecast highs today, sided
close to the mean in areas west and north of the convection,
with slightly cooler highs across central Missouri that could
see storms throughout the day.

As the area of low pressure shifts east this evening, northwest
winds develop across the region. Cooler air returns to the region,
but expect the chances for showers and perhaps a thunderstorm or two
to increase across northern Missouri on Thursday as short wave
associated with the northern branch of the jet builds south across
the Upper Midwest.  The low clouds and precipitation will keep
temperatures cool across northern Missouri, while areas farther
south warm a bit more closer to normal.

Quieter weather is expected on Friday as high pressure builds south
across the western Great Plains. As this ridge builds south and
eventually east, temperatures should gradually warm through the
weekend.

Increasing south/westerly winds will lead to moisture building back
into the region on Sunday. As a lingering fragment of the upper low
builds east from the desert southwest, could see a renewed threat
for additional showers and thunderstorms late Sunday into early
next week. With weaker wind shear, the threat for severe
weather looks to possibly be less than today.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z THURSDAY/...
Issued at 621 AM CDT Wed May 8 2024

Showers and thunderstorms have developed in the vicinity of the
terminals this morning. These may impact the terminals briefly
between now and 13z, with VSBY dropping to around 4SM. Storms
should exit east of the terminals after 14z. Additional
redevelopment of storms is possible later this afternoon, but
these should remain east of the terminals. Once storms move out,
VFR conditions are expected through the period. Light
southeasterly winds this morning should veer throughout the
morning hours, becoming west northwesterly by this afternoon
behind a cold front.
