Area forecast discussion, Jun 3, 5:39 PM CST, 44 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 639 PM CDT FRI JUN 3 2005 .DISCUSSION... SCATTERED CONVECTION WAS DEVELOPING ALONG AND NORTH OF AN OUTFLOW BOUNDARY EXTENDING FROM SEDALIA TO PITTSBURG KANSAS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. ANOTHER AREA OF STRONG CONVECTION WAS ONGOING OVER SOUTHEAST KANSAS FROM NEAR PARSONS TO EMPORIA IN THE VICINITY OF LOW LEVEL MOIST AXIS AND AHEAD OF AN APPROACHING STRONG SHORTWAVE OVER SOUTHWEST OK. AS THE SHORTWAVE LIFTS NORTHEAST...THUNDERSTORMS WILL BECOME MORE WIDESPREAD OVER OUR WESTERN COUNTIES DURING THE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON HOURS. THE CONVECTION WILL THEN SPREAD GRADUALLY EAST TONIGHT. AS THE LOW LEVEL JET AND MOIST AXIS SETS UP OVER EASTERN OK/KS TONIGHT...WE COULD SEE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A CONVECTIVE COMPLEX OVER OUR WESTERN COUNTIES. THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL STILL LOOKS GOOD ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND FAR WESTERN MISSOURI AS A PLUME OF SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE STREAMS FROM THE WESTERN GULF OF MEXICO. 850 DEWPOINTS AROUND 15 DEGREES C...STRONG LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TRANSPORT...AND PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES AROUND 1.5 INCHES SUGGEST STORMS WILL BE VERY EFFICIENT RAINFALL PRODUCERS. LOCALIZED FLOODING IS POSSIBLE. HOWEVER SINCE MOST OF THE CONVECTION HAS REMAINED WEST OF THE AREA TO THIS POINT AND FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE VALUES ARE RELATIVELY HIGH...I WILL HOLD OFF ISSUING A FLOOD WATCH AT THIS TIME. ISOLATED SEVERE STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE AS SHEAR PROFILES INCREASE WITH THE APPROACH OF THE SHORTWAVE. LARGE HAIL AND STRONG WINDS IN WET MICROBURSTS WILL BE THE PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER HAZARDS. ONGOING CONVECTION MAY LINGER INTO SATURDAY MORNING. ADDITIONAL ISOLATED STORMS MAY DEVELOP DURING THE DAY SATURDAY ALONG RESIDUAL BOUNDARIES. HOWEVER MUCH OF THE DAY WILL LIKELY BE DRY UNTIL THE NEXT UPPER TROUGH LIFTS INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS LATE IN THE DAY. THIS SYSTEM WILL SUPPORT THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE ASSOCIATED FRONT ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS INTO NORTHWEST MISSOURI. THIS ACTIVITY WILL SPREAD EAST INTO THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT. SEVERE STORMS WILL AGAIN BE POSSIBLE ESPECIALLY ACROSS OUR WESTERN COUNTIES DURING THE EVENING. STORMS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE OVERNIGHT AND POSSIBLY INTO SUNDAY MORNING IN RESPONSE TO THE STRENGTHENING LOW LEVEL JET. ISOLATED TO SCATTERED CONVECTION MAY AGAIN DEVELOP SUNDAY ALONG THE WEAKENING FRONTAL BOUNDARY. WARM AND HUMID WEATHER CAN BE EXPECTED NEXT WEEK AS BROAD UPPER RIDGE DOMINATES OUR WEATHER. ISOLATED CONVECTION WILL BE DIFFICULT TO RULE OUT BUT UPPER FORCING WILL REMAIN TO THE NORTHWEST. THE BEST CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT APPEARS TO BE MONDAY WHEN A WEAK BOUNDARY MAY REMAIN ACROSS THE AREA...AND AGAIN LATE IN THE WEEK AS A WEAK FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE NORTH. FOSTER/TERRY && .AVIATION... HAVE OPTED TO LEAVE CONVECTION OUT OF KSGF TAF SITE GIVEN LATEST RADAR TRENDS...BUT KJLN TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT SO HAVE INCLUDED TSRA IN A TEMPO GROUP UNTIL 04Z. EXPECT THAT MOST CONVECTION WILL BE JUST NORTHWEST OF THAT SITE HOWEVER. BROWNING && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... .MO...NONE. .KS...NONE. WFO SGF
