NWS Springfield, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 24, 2:25 PM CST, 1 hour 58 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 325 PM CDT SUN JUN 24 2007 .DISCUSSION... WIDELY SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE DEVELOPING AGAIN TODAY. A WEAK UPPER SHEAR AXIS EXTENDS FROM SOUTHERN IL WSW TO THE MO/AR BORDER. OTHERWISE...NOT LOOKING AT MUCH IN THE WAY OF DISCERNIBLE UPPER AIR FEATURES. A FEW EXTRA WRINKLES EXIST HOWEVER...WITH INSTABILITY A LITTLE GREATER VERSUS THE PAST COUPLE OF DAYS WITH MLCAPES ABOUT 2000 J/KG. DRYER AIR ALOFT/RAPID DROP OFF OF THETA E WITH HEIGHT HAS RESULTED IN AN INCREASE DOWNBURST POTENTIAL WITH STRONGER STORMS. SO FAR...STORMS HAVE BEEN MORE PREVALENT OVER SW MO/SE KS VERSUS CENTRAL MO...POSSIBLY DUE TO MUCH DRYER MIDLEVELS IN OUR NORTHERN CWFA. HOWEVER...THE MORE APPARENT SFC BOUNDARY ATTM...ALBEIT STILL FAIRLY DIFFUSE...IS OVER THE CENTRAL AND WEST CENTRAL MO WHERE A FEW ISOLATED UPDRAFTS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO FORM. SHEAR IS WEAK...SO AGAIN LOOKING AT PULSE TYPE CONVECTION WITH STORMS ORGANIZING ALONG OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES. SLOW STORM MOTION WILL RESULT IN LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN. FOR NOW...WILL KEEP CHANCE POPS IN THE FORECAST FOR THE EVENING HOURS. A PERSISTENCE FORECAST STILL LOOKS GOOD OVERALL...AT LEAST FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS WITH MAINLY DIURNAL CONVECTION. A WEAK AND CHAOTIC UPPER FLOW PATTERN WILL REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH THE MIDWEEK PERIOD. THE GFS DOES GRADUALLY BRING MORE ABUNDANT MID AND UPPER LEVEL MOISTURE BACK INTO THE AREA TUE-WED. BY THU-FRI...MEDIUM RANGE MODELS ARE STILL IN EXCELLENT AGREEMENT IN BUILDING AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE OVER THE ROCKIES IN THE WAKE OF A VIGOROUS UPPER SYSTEM PROGGED TO MOVE THROUGH SOUTHERN CANADA. SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST AND THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES IS EXPECTED TO PUSH A COLD FRONT INTO THE CENTRAL MO AS EARLY AS WED NIGHT BEFORE STALLING OUT NEAR OR OVER THE MO OZARKS/SE KS LATE IN THE WEEK. A NW FLOW SHORTWAVE (OR TWO) MAY ENHANCE THE LOW LEVEL FLOW AT TIMES WITH LIFT OVER THE BAROCLINIC ZONE OVER THE REGION. THE GFS SUFFERS FROM CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK BY THAT TIME...BUT IT MAY HAVE THE RIGHT GENERAL IDEA WITH ONE OR MORE CONVECTIVE COMPLEXES/CLUSTER POSSIBLY AFFECTING THE AREA LATE IN THE WEEK. PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES PROGGED BY THE GFS ARE AROUND 2.00 INCHES FRI-SAT. WHILE THIS MAY BE OVERDONE...THE SITUATION BEARS WATCHING WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAINFALL SOMEWHERE NEAR OR IN OUR CWFA. DSA && .AVIATION... FOR THE 18Z TAF CYCLE...SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL ONCE AGAIN DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON OVER SOUTHWEST MISSOURI. WENT WITH VCTS AT BOTH TAF LOCATIONS GIVEN SOMEWHAT LIMITED COVERAGE OF STORMS. HOWEVER...MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES CAN BE EXPECTED AROUND STORMS. THE STORMS WILL QUICKLY DIMINISH THIS EVENING WITH VFR CONDITIONS THEN PREVAILING THROUGH MONDAY MORNING. PREVAILING WINDS WILL REMAIN LIGHT OUT OF THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST.

WEATHER HAZARDS EXPECTED: SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS. THE STRONGEST THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE CAPABLE LOCALIZED DAMAGING WIND GUSTS OF OVER 60 MPH...LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING...AND SMALL HAIL. ALL THUNDERSTORMS CAN PRODUCE DANGEROUS LIGHTNING. AREAS AFFECTED AND TIMING: THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON. WHILE THERE IS A CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE ENTIRE OUTLOOK AREA...THE MOST FAVORED LOCATIONS WILL BE FROM SOUTHEAST KANSAS AND WEST CENTRAL MISSOURI INTO THE MID MISSOURI AND SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI AREAS WHERE LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE IS PRESENT NEAR SURFACE BOUNDARIES. DISCUSSION: A MODERATELY UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE WILL INTERACT WITH A WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY OVER CENTRAL MISSOURI AND ANY LEFT OVER OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES TO PRODUCE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ONCE AGAIN TODAY. AS WITH THE PAST FEW DAYS...A FEW STORMS OR SMALL STORM CLUSTERS WILL PRODUCE LOCALIZED STRONG OR DAMAGING WIND GUSTS AND HEAVY RAINFALL. DRYER AIR IN THE MID LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE WILL ENHANCE DOWNBURST WIND POTENTIAL WITH STRONGER STORMS TODAY. THE ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY PEAK FROM THE MID AFTERNOON INTO THE EARLY EVENING HOURS BEFORE GRADUALLY WEAKENING WITH THE LOSS OF DAYTIME HEATING. WITH WEAK WINDS ALOFT...INDIVIDUAL THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE SLOW MOVING. THIS WILL LEAD TO LOCALIZED HEAVY RAINFALL AND FLOODING. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE ON A DAILY BASIS THROUGH SATURDAY. STORM COVERAGE WILL BE ENHANCED THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY AS A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE REGION AND STALLS JUST SOUTH OF THE OUTLOOK AREA. DISTURBANCES MAY INTERACT WITH A VERY MOIST AIR MASS TO PRODUCE PERIODS OF HEAVY RAIN PRODUCING THUNDERSTORMS OVER PORTIONS OF THE OUTLOOK AREA NORTH OF THE FRONT LATE IN THE WEEK. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... BECAUSE OF THE ISOLATED NATURE OF THE STRONGER STORMS...SPOTTER ACTIVATION IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE NEEDED THROUGH TONIGHT. HOWEVER...EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL SHOULD CONTINUE TO MONITOR LOCAL CONDITIONS. && THIS PRODUCT IS NOW AVAILABLE IN GRAPHICAL FORMAT...ALONG WITH OTHER WEATHER...HYDROLOGICAL AND CLIMATE INFORMATION...AT HTTP://WWW.CRH.NOAA.GOV/SGF(ALL LOWERCASE) DSA
