Area forecast discussion, Jun 17, 10:48 AM CST, 3 hours 47 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 1148 AM CDT THU JUN 17 2004 ...MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE DISCUSSION... .DISCUSSION... COULD BE ANOTHER BUSY AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY ACROSS EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE OZARKS. CLOUDINESS HAS BROKEN UP FOR THE MOST PART LEAVING PARTLY TO MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES ACROSS THE AREA. THIS SHOULD ALLOW THE ATMOSPHERE TO HEAT UP NICELY THIS AFTERNOON...WITH MLCAPES LIKELY APPROACHING IF NOT EXCEEDING 3000 J/KG THIS AFTERNOON. WITH MLCIN ONCE AGAIN DROPPING TO NEAR ZERO IT SHOULDNT TAKE MUCH TO KICK OFF STORMS. SET-UP IS PRIMED FOR MORE PULSE-TYPE SEVERE THIS AFTERNOON. THERE IS ONE CAVEAT. VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY AND PROFILER DATA INDICATE THAT THERE IS A VIGOROUS MCV OVER NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA...WITH A 35-40KT 500MB SPEED MAX ROTATING AROUND THIS FEATURE. VORT HAS MAINTAINED ITS INTENSITY ALL MORNING...AND ASSUMING IT DOESNT WEAKEN ANY THIS AFTERNOON THEN IT COULD LEAD TO SIGNIFICANTLY STRONGER DEEP LAYER SHEAR THAN WAS INDICATED BY ANY OF THE MODELS. WITH STRONG INSTABILITY AND THE POTENTIAL FOR DEEP LAYER SHEAR ON THE ORDER OF 35KT+...THE POTENTIAL COULD EXIST FOR MORE STORM SCALE ORGANIZATION AND POSSIBLY SOME ISOLATED SUPERCELLS. GREATEST THREAT APPEARS TO BE OVER SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI INTO ARKANSAS AND WILL BEEF UP THE HWO WORDING A BIT FOR SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI THIS AFTERNOON. WE WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE SITUATION THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MO...NONE. KS...NONE. IZZI

AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING:
THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE FROM 2 PM THROUGH 8 PM ACROSS THE

DISCUSSION:
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA THIS

UNLIKE YESTERDAY THERE IS A STRONG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE OVER
NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA. THIS DISTURBANCE COULD LEAD TO STRONGER UPPER
LEVEL WINDS OVER SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI THIS AFTERNOON...WHICH
COULD ENHANCE THE THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER THERE. ISOLATED SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS COULD PRODUCE 50 TO 60 MPH WIND GUSTS AND HAIL UP TO
THE SIZE OF PENNIES ACROSS THE ENTIRE OUTLOOK AREA...HOWEVER OVER
SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI THERE IS A MORE SIGNIFICANT THREAT OF
SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...WHICH COULD PRODUCE HAIL UP TO THE SIZE OF
GOLF BALLS AND DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS OF 70 MPH.
.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE FRIDAY AS AN UPPER
LEVEL DISTURBANCE IS FORECAST TO TRACK ACROSS THE AREA AND
INTERACT WITH A STALLED OUT FRONTAL BOUNDARY. LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE THE PRIMARY THREATS...HOWEVER LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL AND FLASH FLOODING ARE ALSO POSSIBLE.
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO BE POSSIBLE ON NEARLY A DAILY BASIS
OVER THE WEEKEND...AND ESPECIALLY EARLY NEXT WEEK. STRONG
INSTABILITY COULD CERTAINLY ALLOW FOR A FEW SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
TO DEVELOP...HOWEVER OF GREATER CONCERN IS THE POTENTIAL FOR
LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLOODING.
