.DISCUSSION...

...MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...

LONG LIVED TORNADIC SUPERCELL APPEARS TO BE FINALLY MERGING WITH A
BROKEN LINE OF WEAKER CONVECTION ADVANCING FROM THE WEST OVER NE
NEWTON COUNTY. REPORTS WITH THIS STORM INCLUDE NUMEROUS TORNADO
SIGHTINGS...HURRICANE FORCE STRAIGHT LINE WINDS AND VERY LARGE HAIL
UP TO BASEBALL SIZE.

ALTHOUGH 04Z SURFACE ANALYSIS INDICATES THAT THE ENTIRE CWA IS
FIRMLY INTO A STABLE LOW LEVEL AIRMASS WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE MID
60S TO LOWER 70S...SEVERE CONVECTION CONTINUES TO DEVELOP UPSTREAM.
LATEST VAD WIND PROFILE DATA FROM KSGF INDICATES THAT LOW LEVEL COLD
POOL IS NEARLY 6000 FEET DEEP

3.4 DEGREE VELOCITY IMAGERY...COUPLED WITH INTERPOLATED HILLSBORO KS
PROFILER DATA SHOW THAT MODELS HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY UNDERFORECAST AN
UPPER LEVEL SPEED MAX CURRENTLY RACING ACROSS KANSAS. 80+ KNOTS OF
FLOW AROUND 30,000 FEET CONTINUES TO MAINTAIN AN EXCEPTIONALLY
STRONG FLOW ENVIRONMENT SUPPORTIVE OF ELEVATED SUPERCELLS AND BOW
ECHOES...AIDED BY MORE THAN AMPLE ELEVATED INSTABILITY.

THE THIRD IN A SERIES OF SMALL SCALE BOWS CONTINUES TO DEVELOP OVER
SE KANSAS IN EASTERN NEOSHO COUNTY. REFLECTIVITY SIGNATURES SHOW A
VERY UPRIGHT SYSTEM WITH EVEN SOME SLIGHT FORWARD TILTING...WITH A
VERY STRONG FRONT END REFLECTIVITY GRADIENT AND MID LEVEL MARC
SIGNATURE. POTENTIAL FOR SIGNIFICANT WIND DAMAGE AND LARGE HAIL WILL
CONTINUE DESPITE THE STABLE NEAR-SURFACE LAYER.

MODELS HAVE ALSO UNDERFORECAST A NOCTURNAL LOW LEVEL JET OVER THE
PLAINS WHICH HAS AIDED IN NEW DEVELOPMENT UPSTREAM. AMPLE MID LEVEL
CONVERGENCE EXISTS SUCH THAT THE COMBINATION OF PROPAGATION AND
ADVECTION MAY ULTIMATELY LEAD TO A DEVELOPING FLASH FLOOD SITUATION
OVER SE KS INTO FAR SW MO AS TRAINING STRONG/SEVERE CONVECTION
CONTINUES WELL INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.

524 PM CDT THU JUN 30 2005

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF THE MISSOURI
OZARKS AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.

  THE THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER APPEARS TO BE INCREASING ACROSS
  PORTIONS OF THE MISSOURI OZARKS AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS
  LATE THIS AFTERNOON.

  A VERY MOIST AND STRONGLY UNSTABLE AIRMASS HAS BEEN IN PLACE
  ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH MUCH OF TODAY. VERTICAL WIND SHEAR WAS
  INCREASING RAPIDLY AHEAD OF APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL JET STREAM.
  THIS WILL ALLOW FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND
  SUPERCELLS INTO THE EVENING HOURS...GENERALLY WEST OF A HERMITAGE
  TO LEBANON TO GAINESVILLE LINE.

  DAMAGING WIND GUSTS OF 60 TO 70 MPH AND HAIL UP TO GOLF BALL SIZE
  ARE EXPECTED TO BE THE MAIN THREATS WITH THESE STORMS. TORRENTIAL
  RAINFALL WILL ACCOMPANY MANY OF THESE STORMS...HOWEVER RECENT DRY
  CONDITIONS AND FORWARD STORM MOVEMENT SHOULD PRECLUDE ANY
  WIDESPREAD FLOODING.

  A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR MUCH OF
  SOUTHWEST MISSOURI AND EXTREME SOUTHEAST KANSAS UNTIL 11 PM.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

  THERE IS A CHANCE THAT THUNDERSTORMS COULD LINGER INTO THE EARLY
  MORNING HOURS FRIDAY...MAINLY SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 60.

  THERE IS ALSO A SLIGHT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS MONDAY THROUGH
  WEDNESDAY OF NEXT WEEK.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

  SPOTTERS SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR ACTIVATION FOR INTO THE
  EVENING HOURS..
