NWS Springfield, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 8, 10:11 AM CST, 4 hours 19 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO ISSUED BY NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE PADUCAH KY 1111 AM CDT TUE JUN 8 2004 .UPDATE... LOWER ATMOSPHERIC THERMAL MIXING FROM INSOLATION AND TIGHT CYCLONIC CIRCULATION CENTERED NEAR WICHITA KS AT 1545Z THIS MORNING IS AIDING IN SLIGHTLY HIGHER WIND GUSTS AND TEMPERATURES THIS MORNING. TWEAKED TEMPERATURES UPWARD 1-2 DEGREES THIS AFTERNOON...WITH JUST A SLIGHT DECREASE IN DEWPOINTS...MAINLY IN EASTERN SECTIONS WHERE CONVECTION MAY BE SLIGHTLY INHIBITED WITH MARGINAL CAP. CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES SHOULD PEAK BY MID AFTERNOON...BUT AT THIS TIME I AM NOT CONFIDENT ENOUGH TO ADJUST POP FCST FOR FORECAST AREA FOR THIS AFTN. .PREV DISCUSSION... THERE ARE SEVERAL FORECAST CHALLENGES WITH THE SENSIBLE CONDITIONS OVER THE NEXT 48 HOURS. THE PRIMARY CHALLENGE WILL BE WITH PRECIPITATION CHANCES TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. SHORT TERM (TODAY - WEDNESDAY)... A RESIDUAL MCV CIRCULATION OVER NORTHEAST OKLAHOMA THIS MORNING WAS INCREASING THE AREAL COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND EVEN SOME ISOLATED THUNDER. THE 315 K POTENTIAL TEMPERATURE PROG FROM THE ETA SHOWS THIS FEATURE NICELY AND APPEARS TO HAVE IT INITIALIZED WELL. TODAYS FORECAST IS WEIGHTED HEAVILY ON THIS SOLUTION AS THE UPPER LOW PROGRESSES NORTH OF INTERSTATE 70 BY THIS AFTERNOON. LOOK FOR ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF THUNDER THIS AFTERNOON AS DESTABILIZATION AND PRESSURE ADVECTION UP THE UPPER LOW ACTS TO LIGHT UP THE RADAR. THE HEAVIEST ACTIVITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE MCV CENTER WILL BE NORTH OF I-70 ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI. GIVEN THE VERY MOIST ATMOSPHERE IN PLACE (PWATS APPROACHING 1.60 INCHES)...MID LEVEL MEAN RELATIVE HUMIDITIES WELL ABOVE 40 PERCENT...AND NO SIGNS OF ANY CAPPING INVERSION...AIRMASS GENERATED SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL OCCUR OVER THE OZARKS TODAY. THE ONE INGREDIENT THAT WILL BE LACKING TO PRODUCE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THE INSUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF INSTABILITY PRESENT. MODIFIED MESO ETA SOUNDINGS FOR THIS AFTERNOON INDICATE 100 MB MIXED LAYER CAPES OF LESS THAN 1000 J/KG. WEAK MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ALONG WITH A VERY WARM LOWER TROP WILL ALSO LIMIT THE INTENSITY OF STORMS. THE GFS INDICATES A STRONG SIGNAL OF A MCV MOVING INTO SOUTHERN MISSOURI BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THIS FEATURE IS CURRENTLY OVER TEXAS...AND EXPECTED TO DRIFT NORTHWARD UNDER THE WEAK UPPER FLOW REGIME. THERE ARE SOME BIG QUESTION MARKS WITH THE GFS QPF SOLUTION WITH OVER 2 INCHES PAINTED OVER MISSOURI. THIS QPF BULLSEYE IS LIKELY CAUSED BY THE CONVECTIVE SCHEME RELEASING TOO MUCH LATENT HEAT IN THE LOWER TROPOSPHERE...WHICH ACTS TO STRENGTHEN AND MAINTAIN THE LOW CIRCULATION. BUMPED POPS A TAD OVER THE CWA...BUT CERTAINLY NOT READY TO BUY OFF ON THE GFS FORECAST. LONG TERM (THURSDAY - MONDAY)... THE AREA REMAINS UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF SOUTHERLY FLOW AS MOST OF THE SHORTWAVE ENERGY TRACK WELL OFF TO THE NORTH. THE SEMI TROPICAL AIRMASS SHOULD REMAIN ESTABLISHED OVER SEVERAL DAYS CAUSING FOR AFTERNOON CONVECTION ON A DAILY BASIS. ONGOING FORECAST HANDLES THIS WELL AND CARRIED DAILY POPS OVER IN TODAYS PACKAGE. THE GFS ADVERTISES A COLD FRONT TO APPROACH THE AREA BY FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY...STALLING OUT OVER SOUTHERN MISSOURI. THIS MAY ULTIMATELY ENHANCE PRECIPITATION CHANCES...DEPENDING UPON HOW LONG THE FRONT CAN REMAIN IN THE AREA. PERHAPS A STRONGER FRONTAL PASSAGE WILL OCCUR EARLY NEXT WEEK PER GFS180. && .AVIATION... SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL OCCUR OVER MUCH OF SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL MISSOURI THIS AFTERNOON. THIS MAY BE THE PRIMARY AVIATION HAZARD THROUGH THE 24 HOUR FORECAST PERIOD. TERMINAL AERODROME FORECASTS ALSO MENTIONS LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR THIS MORNING. MORE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE ON THE INCREASE TONIGHT AND INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING AS AN UPPER DISTURBANCE TRACKS IN FROM THE SOUTH. && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MO...NONE. KS...NONE.
