NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ST LOUIS MO
202 PM CDT THU JUL 13 2006
.DISCUSSION...
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE THIS EVENING AS ATMOSPHERE
REMAINS UNSTABLE AND UNCAPPED ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA. OTHERWISE
ATTENTION TURNS TO THE NORTHWEST WHERE MCS IS DEVELOPING ACROSS
NEBRASKA AND IOWA THIS AFTERNOON. A SOUTHEAST MOVEMENT IS EXPECTED
WITH THIS CONVECTIVE SYSTEM...BRINGING IT ACROSS NORTHWESTERN HALF
OF THE CWA OVERNIGHT.
DECAYING MCS...RESIDUAL BOUNDARIES...AND A CONTINUED UNSTABLE
ATMOSPHERE WARRANTS CHANCE POPS FOR CONVECTION ON FRIDAY BEFORE HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS REGION. TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE HELD DOWN A
FEW DEGREES TOMORROW GIVEN CONVECTIVE DEBRIS AND RAINFALL.
HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED SATURDAY THRU THE MIDDLE OF
NEXT WEEK AS A LARGE RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS ACROSS MISSOURI
AND ILLINOIS. TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 90S AND DEWPOINTS IN THE 70S
WILL RESULT IN HEAT INDICES BETWEEN 100 AND 110 DEGREES DURING THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS EACH DAY. HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA LOOKS
TO BE MET FOR THREE OR MORE CONSECUTIVE DAYS IN THE ST. LOUIS
METROPOLITAN AREA AND THEREFORE PLAN ON ISSUING AN EXCESSIVE HEAT
WATCH FOR SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. BELIEVE OTHER AREAS OF CWA
WILL SEE HEAT ADVISORIES AS WELL...BUT THE METRO AREA WILL SEE THE
GREATEST LIKELIHOOD OF HAVING EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING ISSUED FOR
IT. LITTLE CHANCE OF RAIN THROUGHOUT THE EXTENDED AS ATMOSPHERE
REMAINS CAPPED UNDER HIGH PRESSURE.
