Area forecast discussion, Jun 10, 3:40 PM CST, 40 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO 440 PM CDT TUE JUN 10 2003 MAIN CONCERN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS CONTINUES TO BE THE CONVECTIVE THREATS. MAIN CONCERN IN THE SHORT TERM IS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN CWA. WEAK COLD FRONT WAS LOCATED ACROSS THE EXTREME SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE METRO AREA NORTHEAST TO A LITTLE SOUTHEAST OF KIRKSVILLE. AIR MASS AHEAD OF FRONT CONTINUES TO BE QUITE UNSTABLE. THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO TRIGGER STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE EVENING HOURS AS THE FRONT MOVES SLOWLY SOUTHEAST. AIR MASS TO SLOWLY STABILIZE BY LATE EVENING...BUT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE EXTREME SOUTHERN ZONES AHEAD OF UPPER LEVEL TROF MOVING EAST ACROSS OKLAHOMA. MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW TREND OF UPPER TROF SHEARING EAST LATE TONIGHT WITH ONLY A SMALL THREAT OF SHOWERS ACROSS SOUTHEASTERN ZONES DURING THE MORNING HOURS ON WEDNESDAY. FRONT STILL LOCATED ACROSS SOUTHERN CWA ON WEDNESDAY...BUT SLOWLY DISSIPATES DURING THE DAY. AIR MASS WEAK TO MODERATELY UNSTABLE...BUT AREA UNDER UNDER SUBSIDENCE BEHIND UPPER SHORTWAVE IN EASTERN MISSOURI. BY LATE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON...THE NEXT IN THE SERIES OF SHORTWAVE TROFS ENTERS THE NORTHERN PLAINS. WILL LIKELY SEE DEVELOPMENT ACROSS WESTERN NEBRASKA AHEAD OF SURFACE TROF. THIS ACTIVITY MAY MOVE INTO EXTREME NORTHWESTERN ZONES BY DAYBREAK THURSDAY. OTHERWISE...AVN/ETA SUGGEST THAT WEAK SHORTWAVE/UPPER LOW TO AFFECT AREA THURSDAY/THURSDAY NIGHT. TIMING UNCERTAIN SO WILL KEEP POPS IN CHANCE CATEGORY. OVERALL...PREFER WARMER ETA GUIDANCE. DB NO MAJOR CHANGES HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE EXTENDED PORTION OF THE FORECAST. DETAILS REGARDING SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY CONTINUE TO BE SKETCHY...DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTIES ASSOCIATED WITH TIMING OF SHORTWAVES SPEEDING THROUGH THE MID/UPPER WESTERLY FLOW. THE POSITION OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY PROGGED TO BE DRAPED ACROSS THE CENTRAL CONUS AND/OR ANY LINGERING OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES WILL ALSO COMPLICATE THE FORECAST. SO...WILL MAINTAIN LOW CHANCE POPS THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY UNTIL CONFIDENCE IMPROVES. TEMP-WISE...READINGS ARE EXPECTED TO BE NEAR CLIMATOLOGICALLY NORMAL VALUES. LS 652 AM... DID SOME MINOR REVISIONS TO THE FORECASTS. CONCERNED ABOUT FRONTAL BOUNDARY STILL NORTH OF FORECAST AREA. LITTLE CAP IN PLACE AND ALTHOUGH SEEING SOME STABILIZATION IN AIR MASS ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI IN WAKE OF OVERNIGHT MCS...EXPECT TO SEE SOME RECOVERY BY THE TIME THE BOUNDARY HAS ENTERED NORTHWEST MISSOURI BY 18Z. THUS WILL PULL CHANCES OF STORMS A LITTLE FURTHER NORTH. PC 330 AM... MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS IS WITH WHERE BOUNDARY WILL SET UP TODAY AND REDEVELOPMENT OF STORMS TO TAKE PLACE. THEN LOCATION OF MCS DEVELOPMENT TONIGHT AND AGAIN WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY. ALSO THE EFFECT ON TEMPERATURES THESE MCS FEATURES WILL HAVE. IN THE SHORT TERM...CURRENT CONVECTION IS EXPECTED TO BE IN SOUTHERN HALF OF FORECAST AREA AT START OF DAY. THIS SHOULD LEAVE AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY ACROSS SOUTHERN PART OF FORECAST AREA FOR THIS AFTERNOON...WITH STILL SOME SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE IN ITS VICINITY. ALSO EXPECTING MORE WIDESPREAD DEVELOPMENT INTO SOUTHWEST PART OF FORECAST AREA BY LATE IN THE DAY AS SHORT WAVE MOVING EAST ACROSS SOUTHERN KANSAS AND OKLAHOMA PROVIDES ADDITIONAL LIFT. MCS TONIGHT SHOULD MOVE THROUGH SOUTHERN MISSOURI...SO WILL KEEP CHANCES LOW IN NORTHERN PART OF FORECAST AREA. DURING THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY...MCS EXITS MISSOURI...THEN WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR NEXT MCS TO MOVE OUT OF NORTHERN PLAINS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS ANOTHER SHORT WAVE MOVES THROUGH IN THE NORTHERN STREAM. WILL LEAVE THUNDERSTORMS THROUGHOUT FORECAST AREA DURING DAY ON THURSDAY AS SURFACE FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE NORTHERN STREAM WAVE SETTLES ACROSS FORECAST AREA. FOR TODAY...SHOULD SEE MORE CLOUDINESS SOUTH WITH DYING MCS...SO EXPECT WARMER TEMPERATURES IN NORTHERN HALF OF FORECAST AREA. THEN ON WEDNESDAY...850 TEMPERATURES JUMP UP INTO THE 18 DEGREE RANGE. SHOULD BE WARM ACROSS MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA ALTHOUGH A LITTLE LINGERING CLOUDINESS IN SOUTHEAST PART MAY HOLD TEMPS DOWN A FEW DEGREES. WILL NOT MAKE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO FORECAST BEYOND THURSDAY TIMEFRAME. PC 950 PM... AM MAKING SOME CHANGES TO EXPECTED WEATHER FOR TONIGHT/TUESDAY. BASED UPON CURRENT SATELLITE/RADAR TRENDS AND 00Z MESOETA RUN BEST BET FOR THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT WILL BE ACROSS NORTHERN HALF OF MO. CORFIDI VECTORS/THICKNESS CONTOURS INDICATE CENTRAL/NORTHEAST NE WILL TRACK NORTHEAST AND MOVE INTO NORTHWEST/NORTH CENTRAL MO AFTER MIDNIGHT. ACTIVITY PROGGED TO REACH THE MO RIVER AROUND 12Z. WILL LOWER POPS OVER SOUTHWESTERN COUNTIES TO CHANCE CATEGORY. HAVE ALSO INCREASED POPS OVER SOUTHERN 1/3 CWA FOR 12Z-16Z TIME FRAME ACROSS FAR SOUTHERN COUNTIES TO ACCOUNT FOR MCS MOVING THROUGH. STILL EXPECT REGENERATION OF AFTERNOON CONVECTION ACROSS ALL BUT FAR NORTHWEST MO TOMORROW. MJ .EAX... KS...NONE. MO...NONE. NRR
