NWS St. Louis, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 8, 3:00 AM CST, 10 hours 30 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO 400 AM CDT WED JUN 8 2005 .DISCUSSION... JUICY AIR WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE 70S CONTINUES TO STREAM UP OUT OF THE GULF INTO THE PLAINS THIS MORNING. LOW LEVEL JET IS SCREAMING OVER THE PLAINS TOO AT 30 TO 50 KTS THIS MORNING ACCORDING TO THE RUC...AND WEVE GOT A BIG OLD UGLY MCS MOVING ACROSS NORTHEAST NEBRASKA...EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA...AND MINNESOTA THIS MORNING TO PROVE IT. OLD-SCHOOL CFM VECTORS OFF THE RUC AND NAM WOULD TEND TO WANT TO DROP THE MCS SOUTH OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS...WHILE THE NEWER FORWARD PROPAGATING VECTORS WANT TO MOVE THE MCS EAST-NORTHEAST. THERE SEEMS TO BE A DISTINCT--IF SLOW--SOUTHWARD PUSH TO THE ECHOMASS SO THE ORIGINAL CFM VECTORS WOULD SEEM TO BE DOING BETTER WITH THIS SYSTEM. THIS SOUTHWARD PUSH MIGHT BE IN RESPONSE TO THE VEERING OF THE LOW LEVEL JET AND SUBSEQUENT SOUTHEASTWARD MIGRATION OF THE GREATEST MASS CONVERGENCE... REGARDLESS...IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THIS MCS HAS CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN IOWA IN ITS SIGHTS...AND POSSIBLY EVEN NORTHERN MISSOURI. WOULD EXPECT THE MCS TO GRADUALLY DIE OUT AS THE LOW LEVEL JET WEAKENS THIS MORNING...BUT THE BOUNDARIES IT LEAVES BEHIND SHOULD CONTINUE TO PROPAGATE SOUTHEAST INTO OUR AREA. NAM FORECAST SOUNDINGS FOR NORTHEAST AND CENTRAL MISSOURI SHOW IN EXCESS OF 6000 J/KG OF CAPE. NCEP WAS THINKING THAT THE NAM MIGHT BE OVERDONE WITH ITS MOISTURE FORECASTS TODAY...BUT EVEN IF WE KNOCK OFF 2000 JOULES...4000 CAPE IS STILL ENOUGH TO RAISE THE BLOOD PRESSURE OF ANY WARNING FORECASTER. 0-6KM BULK SHEAR ISNT ALL THAT IMPRESSIVE THIS AFTERNOON OVER THE STATE...WITH MAXIMUM VALUES MAYBE AS HIGH AS 30-35 KTS OVER NORTHERN SECTIONS...BUT WITH 4000-6000 CAPE AND LITTLE OR NO CINH WE COULD SEE SOME ORGANIZED MULTICELLS/QLCS DEVELOPMENT. NO REAL WAY OF TELLING EXACTLY WHERE THE CELLS WILL POP THIS AFTERNOON SO IVE BROAD BRUSHED CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE AREA WITH THE HIGHEST PROBABILITIES UP IN NORTHERN MISSOURI...BUT EXPECT THAT JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE IN THE CWFA COULD SEE RAIN TODAY. IN FACT...A FEW CELLS HAVE FORMED IN THE MID-LEVEL INSTABILITY OVER EASTERN MISSOURI AND SOUTHWEST ILLINOIS. NOTHING MORE THAN ISOLATED IN COVERAGE AT THIS TIME...BUT I HAVE INCLUDED ISOLATED WORDING IN THE FORECAST THIS MORNING. THE FORECAST DOESNT GET ANY EASIER AFTER TODAY... WE STAY STUCK IN THIS SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT INTO THE WEEKEND. WITH MCS DEVELOPMENT OVER THE PLAINS EACH NIGHT WELL SEE THEIR REMNANTS SHUTTLING ACROSS THE MID-MISSISSIPPI VALLEY EACH DAY. I STILL THINK THE PRIMARY RAIN THREAT WILL BE ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN MISSOURI AS WELL AS WEST CENTRAL ILLINOIS WHERE THERE WILL BE LESS INFLUENCE FROM THE UPPER RIDGING TO OUR EAST...BUT CANT RULE OUT RAIN FOR ANYWHERE OVER THE CWFA. HAVE THEREFORE KEPT VARYING DEGREES OF CHANCE WORDING IN THE FORECAST INTO THE WEEKEND. GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO LOOK PRETTY REASONABLE SO IVE FOLLOWED THEM CLOSELY...WITH A MINOR TWEAK UPWARD IN THE FIRST 2 DAYS AS A NOD TO PERSISTENCE. && .LSX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
