The episode as NWS SGF wrote it up.
Storms developed along a remnant boundary across southwest Missouri during the afternoon. Ample instability in conjunction with the development of storms along the boundary, developed a brief EF-0 tornado which touched down in Barton County. Additional storms produce areas of heavy rainfall, high winds and hail. During the evening hours, a supercell which developed over southeast Kansas moved across extreme southwest Missouri, producing hail, wind damage and flooding after producing an EF-1 tornado in Cherokee County, Kansas.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Springfield, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 11, 11:03 PM CST, 2 hours 27 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO 1203 AM CDT MON JUL 12 2010 .DISCUSSION... THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO MOVE SOUTH LATE THIS EVENING. SEVERE WEATHER THREAT SEEMS TO WANING SOMEWHAT WITH LOSS OF DIABATIC HEATING AND AS BOUNDARY LAYER COOLS. EFFECTIVE FRONTAL BOUNDARY/CONGEALED OUTFLOW HAS ALIGNED ITSELF FROM ROUGHLY FT. SCOTT TO OZARK...TO BRANSON. SPC/RUC MESOANALYSIS INDICATES THAT EFFECTIVE SHEAR REMAINS IN THE 40-60 KT RANGE...WHICH IS MORE THAN SUFFICIENT FOR CONVECTIVE ORGANIZATION THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EVENING/OVERNIGHT. SHEAR VECTORS ARE BEGINNING TO ALIGN THEMSELVES MORE AND MORE PARALLEL TO SFC BOUNDARY...WITH RADAR TRENDS CONFIRMING AN EXPECTED TRANSITION TO A MORE LINEAR STORM MODE WITH CELLS TRAINING ALONG BOUNDARY. RUC MODEL PROGS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT DO DEVELOP RATHER IMPRESSIVE AXIS OF 850 MB MOISTURE FLUX/THETA-E ADVECTION ACROSS AND JUST NORTH OF MISSOURI/ARKANSAS BORDER...SUGGESTING THAT HEAVY RAIN MAY BECOME MORE AND MORE OF AN ISSUE OVERNIGHT. FOR NOW...LOOKS AS IF BEST TIME PERIOD FOR LLJ IMPINGEMENT ON BOUNDARY WILL BE THROUGH ABOUT 09Z. GRIDS AND ZFP WILL BE UPDATED AS NEEDED THROUGH 1000 PM. BOXELL .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 606 PM CDT SUN JUL 11 2010/ ..MESOSCALE UPDATE... ..ISSUED AT 220 PM... INITIALLY DISCRETE CELLS STARTING TO FORM INTO AN MCS OVER WEST CENTRAL AND CENTRAL MISSOURI AS OF 19Z. STILL SEEING SOME ROTATION WITHIN A COUPLE OF THESE CELLS. CELL OVER HENRY COUNTY IN WEST CENTRAL MO STARTING TO BOW AND ACCELERATE EAST-SOUTHEAST AND HAS A HISTORY OF PRODUCING DAMAGING WIND. NEW 18Z SOUNDING FROM SGF SHOWS 3600+ J/KG CAPES. WOULD EXPECT CURRENT TREND TO CONTINUE WITH AN ESE MOVEMENT AND POSSIBLE CONTINUED ACCELERATION WITH FORWARD PROPAGATING CORFIDI VECTORS HEADING ESE. THIS WOULD KEEP THE MAIN SEVERE THREAT WITH THIS MCS MAINLY EAST OF AN OSCEOLA TO BRANSON LINE THIS AFTERNOON. LINDENBERG SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)... UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE CURRENTLY PUSHING THROUGH NORTHERN KANSAS AND MISSOURI CONTINUES TO INTERACT WITH AN INCREASING UNSTABLE AIR MASS TO PRODUCE SCATTERED THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY OVER SOUTHERN MISSOURI WITH SEVERE STORMS FURTHER NORTH ACROSS CENTRAL MO. DECENT JET MAX THIS FAR SOUTH FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR WAS HELPING IN 0-6KM SHEAR VALUES OF 40-50KTS OVER NORTHERN PART OF CWA AND WHEN COMBINED WITH CAPES OF 3000-4000 J/KG WILL CONTINUE THE SEVERE WEATHER RISK OVER WEST CENTRAL AND CENTRAL MO THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND LIKELY INTO THE EVENING HOURS. STILL HAVE NOT SEEN ANY DEVELOPMENT IN THE SOUTHWEST PART OF THE CWA BUT STILL VERY UNSTABLE AND WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT LATER IN THE AFTERNOON. MODELS AS EXPECTED HAVE DIFFERING SOLUTIONS WITH ALL OF THE MESOSCALE FEATURES BUT COULD SEE ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT...DEPENDING ON WHERE THE EFFECTIVE SURFACE BOUNDARIES SET UP. BETTER CHANCES FOR CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT LOOK TO BE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN CWA MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT. ANOTHER STRONG UPPER LEVEL WAVE WILL SHIFT SOUTHEAST INTO THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT FROM THE SOUTHWEST WHICH SHOULD PUSH THE MAIN AREA OF CONVECTION EAST OF THE AREA BY MIDDAY TUESDAY. LINDENBERG LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)... UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL BE ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE MID AND LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY REGIONS AT THE START OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD. A STRONG UPPER LEVEL WAVE IN THE NORTHERN STREAM FLOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS WILL TRACK EAST INTO THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WEDNESDAY NIGHT ALLOWING FOR A FLATTENING OF THE UPPER RIDGE AND A SURFACE FRONT TO TRACK INTO THE FORECAST AREA ON THURSDAY. HAVE LOW POPS GOING FOR WEDNESDAY DAY NIGHT IN THE NORTHWEST CWA AND CWA WIDE ON THURSDAY AS THE FRONT WASHES OUT OVER THE AREA. MAIN STORM TRACK FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST PERIOD WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE NORTHERN CONUS AND HAVE KEPT PRECIPITATION OUT OF THE FORECAST FOR NOW. LINDENBERG && .AVIATION... 0600Z TAFS... THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE TERMINALS OVERNIGHT...RESULTING IN OCCASIONAL IFR CIGS. IN ADDITION...LLWS WILL BE POSSIBLE AT ALL SITES THROUGH DAYBREAK. ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP DURING THE DAY MONDAY...AND IMPACT THE TAF SITES ONCE AGAIN. BOXELL && .SGF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... MO...NONE. KS...NONE. &&
