NWS Kansas City, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 4, 3:25 AM CST, 35 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO 425 AM CDT SAT JUN 4 2005 .DISCUSSION... WILL EXPAND THE FLOOD WATCH TO INCLUDE THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA AND EXTEND THE TIME PERIOD INTO SUNDAY MORNING. RAINS OVERNIGHT IN THE FORECAST AREA HAVE ALREADY CAUSED SOME FLOODING PROBLEMS...AND SATURATED THE GROUND FOR MUCH OF THE REGION WHICH SHOULD PRIME THE AREA FOR MORE FLOODING PROBLEMS TONIGHT. WE SHOULD SEE A BREAK IN THE RAIN DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS WHICH WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO ROCKET UP. MAY SEE SOME NEAR 90 READINGS IF SKIES CLEAR ENOUGH...BUT FOR NOW WILL LEAN TOWARD MIDDLE TO UPPER 80S BANKING ON SOME RESIDUAL CLOUD DEBRIS FROM MORNING STORMS. THE HEATING SHOULD SET THE STAGE FOR STRONG TO SEVERE WEATHER TONIGHT. EXPECT EASTERN KANSAS TO BECOME QUITE UNSTABLE BY MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. NOT MUCH CAPPING EXPECTED...WITH MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES EXPECTED TO BE QUITE FAVORABLE FOR RAPID STORM DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON AS SHORT WAVE MOVES OUT OF COLORADO AND INTO NEBRASKA AND KANSAS. STORMS SHOULD BE CLEARING AREA BY SUNDAY MORNING. MAY SEE SOME REDEVELOPMENT IN SOUTHERN AND EASTERN MISSOURI ON SUNDAY...AND SOME CONCERN SOMETHING MIGHT TRY TO REDEVELOP IN SOUTHEAST PART OF FORECAST AREA DEPENDING ON THE THE PROGRESS OF THE UPPER WAVE. FOR NOW WILL LEAVE FORECAST DRY WITH JUST SLIGHT CHANCES MENTIONED IN GRIDS. WILL BE WORTH WATCHING WITH LATER MODEL RUNS. DID WARM TEMPERATURES A BIT FOR MONDAY WITH UPPER RIDGING MOVING INTO AREA AND RETURN FLOW ALREADY SETTING UP. LOOKS LIKE NORTHWEST PART OF FORECAST AREA MAY REACH 90 DEGREE READINGS. PC && .PREV DISCUSSION... 322 PM FRI... COMPLEX WEATHER SITUATION TO EVOLVE OVER THE NEXT 36 HOURS. SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY CONTINUES TO TEASE THE WESTERN EDGES OF THE FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON. THE ACTIVITY HAS BECOME MORE ORGANIZED ACROSS SOUTHEAST KANSAS...ALONG THE EDGE OF THE INSTABILITY AXIS IN THE VICINITY OF THE OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FROM THE OVERNIGHT CONVECTION. ANTICIPATE THIS CLUSTER OF THUNDERSTORMS TO TRACK ACROSS THE SOUTHWESTERN CWA DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON HOURS...ALTHOUGH IT WILL LIKELY LOSE INTENSITY AS IT ENCOUNTERS MORE STABLE AIRMASS ACROSS THE CWA. AFTERNOON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SHOWS THE NEXT SHORTWAVE OF INTEREST OVER THE TEXAS/OKLAHOMA PANHANDLE. EXPECT ANOTHER CONVECTIVE COMPLEX TO EVOLVE TONIGHT AS THE AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE LIFTS NORTHEAST ACROSS KANSAS...AND A 40 KNOT LOW LEVEL JET INDUCES A WEST-EAST ORIENTED MOISTURE CONVERGENCE AXIS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. THIS WILL YIELD AN ELEVATED HEAVY RAINFALL THREAT...ALTHOUGH CANNOT RULE OUT ISOLATED SEVERE ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCING HAIL AS WELL. MOST PRIMED AREA FOR FLOODING WILL BE AREAS ALONG AND WEST OF A BETHANY TO RICHMOND TO BUTLER LINE...WHERE A FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT UNTIL NOON SATURDAY. HAVE PLACED THE HIGHEST POPS BETWEEN THE HOURS OF MIDNIGHT AND 7 AM. SATURDAY APPEARS AS IT WILL BE ANOTHER ACTIVE DAY...ESPECIALLY DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. BOTH NAM AND GFS SOLUTIONS PROG THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FAIRLY HEALTHY SHORTWAVE...AND ASSOCIATED SURFACE CYCLOGENESIS. PARAMETERS POINT TOWARD A POTENTIAL SEVERE WEATHER EVENT...WITH PROGGED CAPES OF 2500 J/KG...AND 700-500MB LAPSE RATES OF 8 C/KM IN ADVANCE OF THE APPROACHING FRONT. DEEP LAYER SHEAR WILL INCREASE AND THE CAP WILL LIKELY SUFFICIENTLY ERODE BY LATE AFTERNOON AS THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH APPROACHES...ESPECIALLY ACROSS NORTHEAST KANSAS AND NORTHWEST MISSOURI. THERE IS STILL SOME MODEL/FORECASTER UNCERTAINTY ON THE SURFACE LOW DEVELOPMENT...SO WILL NEED TO CONTINUE MONITORING THE SYSTEM EVOLUTION AND ATTENDANT TORNADO THREAT. THE GFS, CANADIAN, AND GFS MODELS SUGGEST THAT THERE WILL BE A SHORTWAVE RIDGE BUILD OVER KANSAS AND MISSOURI MONDAY AND TUESDAY. I HAVE LOWERED PRECIPITATION CHANCES ACCORDINGLY. IT LOOKS LIKE THE PATTERN BECOMES MORE CONDUCIVE FOR STORMS WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY, AND FRIDAY AS HEIGHTS FALL OVER KANSAS AND NEBRASKA. THE PATTERN ADVERTISED FOR THE END OF THE WEEK LOOKS VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT IS EXPECTED THIS WEEKEND WITH AN EAST WEST STATIONARY BOUNDARY OVER THE REGION AND DISTURBANCES MOVING THROUGH THE SOUTHWEST FLOW. SCHMIT/KOCH && .EAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MO...FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY FOR ALL ZONES. KS...FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY FOR ALL ZONES.

LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL CONTINUE TO BE POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS AND NORTHWEST MISSOURI. THE NEXT IN THE SERIES OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES WILL LIFT NORTHEAST ACROSS KANSAS TONIGHT...TRIGGERING THE DEVELOPMENT OF ANOTHER NOCTURNAL THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX. THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY SPREAD EAST ACROSS EASTERN KANSAS AND WESTERN MISSOURI AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT...AND MOVE ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. ISOLATED SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE...WITH THE PRIMARY THREAT BEING LARGE HAIL. HEAVY RAINFALL IS ALSO POSSIBLE. FLOODING IS ALSO POSSIBLE...MAINLY ALONG AND WEST OF THE INTERSTATE 35 CORRIDOR...WHERE SATURATED GROUND CONDITIONS EXIST FROM RECENT RAINFALL. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS ANOTHER UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE MOVES ACROSS THE REGION...AND SURFACE LOW PRESSURE DEVELOPS. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. MODERATE INSTABILITY WILL BE PRESENT AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE. AS THE COLD FRONT AND UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE INTERACT...STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...POSSIBLY SUPERCELLS...ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP. THE MAIN THREATS WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. FAVORABLE SHEAR PARAMETERS INDICATE THE POTENTIAL FOR TORANDOES AS WELL. HEAVY RAIN AND LOCALIZED FLOODING WILL CONTINUE TO BE A THREAT WITH CLUSTERS OF STORMS THAT TRACK OVER THE SAME AREA. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED LATE SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SCHMIT
