NWS Kansas City, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Aug 28, 5:03 AM CST, 5 hours 57 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE KANSAS CITY/PLEASANT HILL MO 603 AM CDT MON AUG 28 2006 .DISCUSSION... QUICK ADJUSTMENT TO THE MORNING FORECAST BASED ON LATEST RADAR TRENDS. THE EARLY MORNING SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY IS EXITING THE FORECAST AREA AT THIS TIME. WITH NOTHING UP STREAM IN NEBRASKA...KANSAS...OR OKLAHOMA POISED TO MOVE INTO THE CWA...I HAVE LOWERED POPS INTO THE SLIGHT CHANCE CATEGORY FOR THE MORNING HOURS. CUTTER && .PREV DISCUSSION... /303 AM CDT MON AUG 28 2006/ AROUND THE REGION EARLY THIS MORNING SCATTERED SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO POP UP ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA OPERATING WITHIN A LEADING ARM OF THE CUTOFF LOW CURRENTLY CENTERED OVER NORTHWEST NEBRASKA. SECONDARY ARM EXTENDING FROM THE CUTOFF LOW IS MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL KANSAS THIS MORNING AND IS ASSOCIATED WITH SOME WIDELY SCATTERED ACTIVITY. WATER VAPOR IMAGERY IS A LITTLE DECEIVING AS SCATTERED CONVECTION WITHIN THE SECONDARY ARM IS LOFTING MOISTURE INTO WHAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE SEEN AS A MID LEVEL DRY SLOT. AT THE SURFACE THE FRONT IS RATHER DIFFUSE AND HARD TO PICK OUT GIVEN THE CONVECTIVE DEBRIS FROM YESTERDAY EVENING. BEST STAB AT AN ANALYSIS STILL PLACES IT IN NORTHERN MISSOURI...IN THE VICINITY OF MO HIGHWAY 36. BY SUNRISE SCATTERED SHOWER ACTIVITY SHOULD BE ONGOING AS THE LEADING ARM OF THE CUTOFF LOW WILL JUST BE EXITING NORTHEAST MISSOURI. SECONDARY ARM WILL BE SWINGING INTO EASTERN KANSAS...BUT WITH THE AMOUNT OF MID LEVEL DRYING GOING ON WITHIN IT I DO NOT EXPECT TO MUCH ACTIVITY. TRIMMED LIKELY POPS A LITTLE AS A RESULT... RESTRICTING THEM TO THE NORTHEAST THIRD OF THE FORECAST AREA FOR THE MORNING HOURS. EASTERN KANSAS AND WESTERN MISSOURI SHOULD ONLY HAVE TO DEAL WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS OUT OF A LOW CLOUD DECK THIS MORNING. THE CUTOFF LOW WILL BEGIN TO OPEN UP AS IT MOVES EAST OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS BECOMING POSITIVELY TILLED IN THE PROCESS. WITH THIS EVOLUTION IN THE PATTERN WIDE SPREAD HEAVY RAIN IS NO LONGER EXPECTED. WILL CANCEL THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH EARLY THIS MORNING AS A RESULT. AS THE LOW TURNS INTO A SHARPLY POINTED TROUGH SOME SHOWERS MAY PERSIST OVER THE FOLLOWING DAYS. HAVE EXPANDED OUR CHANCE POPS FOR TUESDAY MORNING AS BOTH THE GFS AND NAM INDICATE THAT THE TROUGH AXIS WILL BE SLIDING INTO NORTHERN MISSOURI. TUESDAYS ACTIVITY WILL BE TIED TO DIURNAL INSTABILITY...SO IT SHOULD NOT PERSIST INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. OTHERWISE...LOOK FOR TEMPERATURES TO REMAIN ON THE COOL SIDE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. THE FRONT IN NORTHERN MISSOURI WILL GET SHOVED BACK TO THE SOUTHEAST AS THE TROUGH MOVES IN. WEDNESDAY WILL SEE US RETURN TO NORMAL AS A SHORTWAVE RIDGE MOVES IN BEHIND THE EXITING TROUGH. ONLY MINOR ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE TO THE GOING TEMPERATURE FORECAST. CUTTER /247 PM CDT SUN AUG 27 2006/ LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS QUASI-STATIONARY FRONT REMAINS STALLED ACROSS FAR NRN MO...THEN DRAPED SWD ALONG THE KANSAS PORTION OF THE I-35 CORRIDOR. WIDESPREAD OVERCAST HAS GIVEN WAY TO A FEW BREAKS IN THE QUASI-WARM SECTOR...ALLOWING TEMPERATURES TO APPROACH 80 DEGREES. AMAZINGLY ENOUGH...GIVEN AVAILABLE 12Z KTOP SOUNDING...THIS IS THE CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURE AND DEEP CONVECTION IS ALREADY BLOSSOMING ALONG AND AHEAD OF THIS BOUNDARY. INSTABILITY REMAINS WEAK...OWING TO A VERY NEUTRAL/SATURATED SOUNDING...MORE TYPICAL OF THE DEEP TROPICS. HOWEVER...VERY NARROW CAPE PROFILE AND PRECIPITABLE WATERS STILL IN THE 1.75 TO 2.00 RANGE SUPPORT AN ONGOING THREAT OF HEAVY RAINFALL AS RICH LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IS OVERTOPPED BY A PERSISTENT MOIST SWRLY MID-HIGH LEVEL PLUME. HAVE WORKED UP A DETAILED PNS/RAINFALL MAP OF THE LAST 3 DAYS WHICH I HOPE TO HAVE POSTED TO THE WEB LATER THIS AFTERNOON. ANYWHERE FROM 2.50 TO LOCALLY 7 INCHES OF RAIN HAS FALLEN ACROSS CENTRAL/WEST CENTRAL MISSOURI INTO EASTERN KANSAS. WITH POTENTIAL FOR ACTIVITY TO TRAIN TO THE NORTHEAST ALONG THE SLOW MOVING BOUNDARY THIS EVENING...WILL BE ISSUING A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR AREAS ALONG AND SOUTH OF A LINE FROM ST. JOSEPH TO KIRKSVILLE. AGAIN...EVEN IN THE ABSENCE OF THE VIVID LIGHTNING SHOWS THE PAST FEW NIGHTS...RAINFALL RATES OF 2-3 INCHES PER HOUR WILL ACCOMPANY MANY CELLS. ACTIVITY SHOULD GENERALLY TAPER FROM WEST TO EAST AFTER MIDNIGHT AS ELONGATED SHORTWAVE PRESENTLY MOVING INTO CENTRAL KS CONTINUES EAST...SCOURING THE DEEP TROPICAL MOISTURE. THE RESULT MAY BE SOME VERY LOW STRATUS AND POTENTIALLY DENSE FOG OVER WRN MO/ERN KS LATER TONIGHT...BUT ENOUGH SHORT TERM CONCERNS AT THE MOMENT. RAIN CHANCES DONT END THERE HOWEVER AS AN UNUSUALLY DEEP UPPER LEVEL CYCLONE FINALLY WORKS ITS WAY OUT OF THE ROCKIES AND INTO THE PLAINS MONDAY AND TUESDAY. MAINTAINED SWRLY UPPER FLOW...COMBINED WITH APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL COLD POOL...WILL SUPPORT CONTINUED CONVECTIVE CHANCES (MAINLY DIURNAL) THROUGH TUESDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE SEASONABLY COOL (ALBEIT MUGGY) FOR THE NEXT 24-36 HOURS. AFTER THE PASSAGE OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH TUESDAY...EXPECT EVEN COOLER AND DRIER AIR TO FILTER IN FOR TUESDAY NIGHT WITH THE PROSPECTS FOR OVERNIGHT LOWS IN THE 50S LOOKING QUITE PROMISING. BOOKBINDER THE UPPER LOW THAT HAS BEEN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE GENERATION OF PRECIPITATION THIS WEEKEND...WILL PULL AWAY FROM THE FORECAST AREA BY MID WEEK. AN END TO PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED BY WEDNESDAY AS THIS FEATURE MOVES EAST. TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN RATHER MILD...RIGHT AROUND THE SEASONAL NORMALS...FROM MID TO LATE IN THE WORK WEEK...AS AN EASTERLY FETCH TO THE LOW LEVEL WINDS WILL DELAY ANY SUBSTANTIAL WARMUP. THE GREATEST UNCERTAINTY IN THE EXTENDED PORTION OF THE FORECAST COMES WITH THE UPPER TROUGH PROGRESSION ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS/SOUTHERN CANADA LATE IN THE WEEK. THE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS ARE RATHER INCONSISTENT WITH HOW SOON TO GENERATE A CLOSED LOW...AND IN TURN HOW FAST TO TAKE THIS SYSTEM EAST. THE 06Z GFS CUTOFF THE LOW OVER EASTERN IDAHO AND WYOMING BY FRIDAY...KEEPING THE UPPER TROUGH AND ATTENDANT SURFACE FRONT WEST OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND. THE 12Z GFS DEPICTS THE CUTOFF LOW OVER MANITOBA MIDDAY ON FRIDAY...AND BRINGS THE SURFACE FRONT ACROSS THE AREA ON SATURDAY. KEPT WHAT WERE ALREADY SLIGHT PRECIPITATION CHANCES IN THE FORECAST ON SATURDAY WHICH WERE CLOSER TO THE 12Z GFS SOLUTION...BUT CONFIDENCE REMAINS LOW WITH THIS TIMING.
