Area forecast discussion, Jun 28, 2:12 PM CST, 3 hours 30 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 312 PM CDT THU JUN 28 2001 PROBLEM THIS FORECAST PERIOD CONTINUES TO BE CUTOFF LOW. LATEST FORECAST SCENARIO HAS BECOME ROUTINE AS CUTOFF UPPER LOW ENSURES THAT TSTMS OR SHWRS DVLP DURING THE AFTN HRS AND DIMINISH BY SUNSET. WHAT HAS BEEN NON-ROUTINE IS WHERE STORMS DVLP AND WHICH ONES BECOME SVR. CAPE RANGED FROM 2000 TO 3000 J/KG WITH LI OF MINUS 8. HIGH CAPE VALUES WILL SUPPORT STRONG UPDRAFTS WITHIN TSTMS. STRONG VEERING OF WINDS WITH HEIGHT...ALTHOUGH OF WEAK SPEEDS...WILL SUPPORT SOME SUPERCELL STORMS. SINCE WIND FLOW ALOFT IS RATHER WEAK...XPCT PULSE TYPE SVR TSTMS. LATEST SFC ANALYSIS SHOWED WEAK OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM XTRM SERN KS THRU WCNTRL AR. RICH MSTR WAS FLOWING NWD FROM THIS BOUNDARY AND INTO XTRM SERN KS AND SWRN MO THIS AFTN. DWPTS HAVE INCRSD TO 69 DEG F AT SGF...AFTER BEING IN THE LOWER 60S EARLIER TODAY. SFC WIND FLOW OVER SWRN MO WAS ESERLY NORTH OF BOUNDARY. APPEARS THAT A MAX OF MSTR CONVRGC WAS IN PLACE OVER SERN KS AND SWRN MO. NUMEROUS CELLS HAVE ALREADY DVLPD IN THIS AREA OF THE CWFA AND HAVE COME CLOSE TO BECOMING SEVERE. FURTHER AWAY FROM THE BOUNDARY...AS MENTIONED EARLIER...MSTR CONVRGC WAS LESS. ONLY A FEW CELLS DVLPD SO FAR. HOWEVER TCU COVERS A LARGE PORTION OF THE CWFA...DUE TO THE VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS IN PLACE. WILL HIT POPS HARD FOR THE FAR WSTRN ZONES THIS EVENING...WITH A 70 PCT CHANCE AND MENTION THE PSSBLTY OF LARGE HAIL...DMG WIND...HVY RAIN. ELSEWHERE WILL MENTION ONLY HVY RAINFALL WITH POPS DIMINISHING FROM A 50 PCT AT SGF TO 30 PCT FOR VIH. OTHERWISE LOOKS LIKE FRIDAY WILL BE SIMILAR TO TODAY AS UPPER LOW WILL BE OVER MO. WILL HAVE TO BROADBRUSH POPS ACROSS THE ZONES...DUE TO UNCERTAINTIES...REGARDING PLACEMENT OF FUTURE OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES. ETA MODEL APPEARS TO HAVE BETTER HANDLE ON UPPER LOW THAN AVN OR NGM. AS ETA MODEL IS CONSISTENT WITH MOVING UPPER LOW SWWD BY 60HRS WHILE MAINTAINING A CIRCULATION. AVN STRETCHES UPPER LOW NEWD AND SWWD WHILE LOSING CIRCULATION. THIS IS INCONSISTENT WITH THE LAST FEW DAYS OF MODEL RUNS. 28/00Z MRF WAS CONSISTENT WITH MOVING UPPER LOW INTO ERN TX BY MON...MUCH BETTER THAN 28/00Z RUN OF THE CANADIAN MODEL...AS THE 28/00Z CANADIAN MODEL MOVES UPPER LOW INTO MS. 28/12Z RUN OF CANADIAN MODEL WAS CLOSER IN AGREEMENT WITH 28/00Z MRF. THE EXTENDED HAS WNWLY UPPER FLOW ACROSS THE NRN PORTION OF THE COUNTRY. HOWEVER SFC PATTERN AS FCST BY THE MRF WOULD PLACE BEST CHANCES FOR NWRLY FLOW TYPE MCC EVENTS WELL TO OUR WEST. COLD FRONT MOVES IN ON WED BUT FRONTAL CONVERGENCE LOOKS WEAK. SLGTLY COOLER AIR WILL ENSUE ON THURS. FOR NOW WILL KEEP PCPN OUT OF EXTENDED. .SGF... MO...NONE. KS...NONE. D.STEINMETZ
