Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Springfield MO
802 PM CDT Thu Jul 4 2024

.KEY MESSAGES...

- A Heat Advisory is in effect for far southern Missouri through
  9 PM with heat index values ranging from 100-105 degrees.

- There is a Slight risk (2 of 5) for severe thunderstorms
  across much of the area this evening. Damaging winds will be
  the primary hazard.

- Storms this evening will produce efficient rainfall rates
  resulting in a risk of localized flash flooding.

- Cooler conditions return Friday into next week.

&&

.MESOSCALE...
Issued at 801 PM CDT Thu Jul 4 2024

A surface cold front continues to slowly move southeast across
the Missouri Ozarks. As of 8 PM, the front is analyzed from
Neosho to Nixa to near Houston. Weak height falls are
overspreading the region which will support the front continuing
to slowly move southeast throughout the remainder of the
evening.

Deep moisture convergence will continue to increase along and
ahead of the front and will support continued development of
scattered thunderstorms. The greatest coverage of storms will
initially occur across southwestern Missouri through 9 PM. This
activity will then expand and shift northeast along and south of
the I-44 corridor through midnight. Most of the activity will
exit the eastern Ozarks by 09Z.

The 00Z KSGF sounding indicates that the environment is highly
unstable with MLCAPE values over 3200 J/kg with virtually no
inhibition. Low-level theta-e differentials over 30K will be
supportive of localized damaging wind gusts with the initial
scattered activity. Deep layer shear of 25-30 knots and expected
cold pool conglomeration may result in some upscale growth into
linear clusters. This would correspondingly enhance damaging
wind potential in the 02 to 05 UTC time frame if the upscale
growth does indeed occur. A few storms may also produce hail to
the size of quarters.

We will also be monitoring the potential for locally heavy
rainfall and localized flash flooding as precipitable water
values remain in the 1.7-2.0" range with rather slow storm
motions. We are going to leave the ongoing Flood Watch as is
given that this activity will shift into much of the watch
region over the next few hours. The western extent of the watch
may be cancelled early if storms remain to the southeast of that
particular area.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
Issued at 204 PM CDT Thu Jul 4 2024

Afternoon temperatures have climbed into the upper 80s to lower
90s. Combine with dewpoints in the lower to middle 70s, heat
index values were in the 100 to 110 range, especially across
southern Missouri. This heat and moisture will set the stage for
potential shower and storms development late this afternoon
into early this evening.

CAMS continue to struggle with initiation across the Ozarks but
do indicate the potential for showers and storms to begin
developing across far eastern Kansas and Northeastern Oklahoma
between from 21z this afternoon onward (more likely closer to
22-23z), depending on the model of choice.

CAPE values in the 2500-3500j/kg range were in place across the
region. As an upper level trough moves across the northern
plains and a surface low in Oklahoma begin to shift east a cold
front will begin to make its way into the region this evening
and overnight. With the expected frontal lift and no cap,
showers and storms are expected to develop mainly west of I-49
and move east through this evening.

While there looks to be limited low-level Jet support for
storms, with the front moving towards the region, and upper
level jet energy across northern Missouri providing some upper
level support, some storms will be capable of becoming strong
to severe. The main concern remains damaging winds with D-CAPE
(downdraft CAPE) of 1000-1400j/kg supporting this. Hail
potential is less concerning, but 500-900j/kg in the hail growth
zone (-10 to -30 degree level) and 35-40kts of 0-6km shear
would allow for isolated large hail. The tornado chances are
rather low though not zero and will rest on how storms develop
and move east this evening.

Will also monitor for flood potential with PW values in the 1.7
to 1.9" range noted across the region. This will allow for
heavy rainfall potential, which may have impact across areas
that received rainfall last night. Additional rain amount around
an inch with locally 2 inch or higher amounts will be possible
with storms as they move across the region this evening. Thus,
the current Flash Flood Watch continues for this evening.

Showers and storms will push south and east of the region
overnight with clearing skies behind the cold front occurring by
sunrise or earlier. Cooler temperatures will filter into the
area behind the front.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Issued at 204 PM CDT Thu Jul 4 2024

From Friday onward, temperatures will return closer to annual
climatology, with highs in the 80s for the rest of the week as a
cooler and drier airmass moves over our area. Precipitation chances
return Sunday night as a shortwave trough over the Great Plains
moves south. Both the 12z GFS and ECMWF develop convection over the
southern Great Plains Sunday afternoon into Monday morning, and
there is some model support for a possible MCS that develops north
of this convection that may move into southeast Kansas and southwest
Missouri. Confidence in the exact details of this event will become
clearer as we approach it. For now, precipitation chances are set
from 50-70%.

Early next week, ensembles show a pattern of upper-level ridging
developing across the western U.S. This will put us in a regime of
northwesterly flow. Precipitation chances for the rest of next week
currently sit below 30%.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z FRIDAY/...
Issued at 618 PM CDT Thu Jul 4 2024

A passing cold front will bring scattered thunderstorms to
southern Missouri this evening. The main impacts to the
terminals will occur between 01 and 06 UTC. IFR visibilities
can be expected beneath thunderstorms along with gusty and
erratic winds.

The storms will then shift southeast of the area late tonight
with VFR prevailing into Friday. Surface winds will remain out
of the northwest through Friday with afternoon gusts around 20
knots.
