AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1241 PM CDT SUN MAR 21 2010
...UPDATE TO AVIATION...
.DISCUSSION...
A VIGOROUS LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM CONTINUES TO INTENSIFY ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS PRODUCING HEAVY PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE OZARKS
AND SOUTHEAST KANSAS. AN AREA OF SURFACE LOW PRESSURE IS
CURRENTLY LOCATED OVER EASTERN ARKANSAS. THE MAIN UPPER LEVEL WAVE
REMAINS WELL TO THE WEST OVER THE RED RIVER VALLEY. LOW LEVEL
TEMPERATURE GRADIENTS ARE VERY TIGHT WITH THIS SYSTEM. STRONG
MOISTURE TRANSPORT AHEAD OF THE MAIN WAVE INTO THIS TEMPERATURE
GRADIENT IS RESULTING IN A HEAVY BAND OF PRECIPITATION ORIENTED
FROM NORTHWEST ARKANSAS TO CENTRAL MISSOURI. THIS BAND OF
PRECIPITATION HAS CHANGED OVER TO FREEZING RAIN OVER SOUTH CENTRAL
MISSOURI WITH SNOW CONTINUING TO FALL ALONG THE MISSOURI/KANSAS
BORDER. THIS CHANGE OVER SUGGESTS THAT THE WARM TEMPERATURE NOSE
ASSOCIATED WITH THE PRIMARY MOISTURE TRANSPORT AXIS HAS
INTENSIFIED WITH THE MATURING CYCLONE. MODEL GUIDANCE ALSO
SUGGESTS THAT THE MAIN AREA OF PRECIPITATION INTO SUNDAY MORNING
WILL BE ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 44. PREDOMINANTLY FREEZING
RAIN WILL CONTINUE DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS WITH
PRECIPITATION CHANGING OVER TO RAIN DURING THE DAY SUNDAY AS
WARMER AIR ADVECTS INTO THE AREA FROM THE EAST IN CONJUNCTION WITH
DIURNAL TEMPERATURE RISES. PRECIPITATION SHOULD END FROM WEST TO
EAST SUNDAY EVENING INTO MONDAY MORNING.
TEMPERATURES FOR THE MID WEEK WILL RISE SIGNIFICANTLY AS RIDGING
BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST. AFTERNOON HIGHS NEAR 60 DEGREES ARE
EXPECTED TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY. WITH RECENT SNOW PACK...RAPID
MELTING WILL OCCUR WITH TEMPERATURE RISES OF THESE MAGNITUDES. AS A
RESULT...FLOODING DUE TO SNOW MELT RUNOFF WILL BE A MIDWEEK CONCERN.
ANOTHER DISTURBANCE WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST LATE IN THE WEEK.
MODEL GUIDANCE IS SHOWING BETTER CONSISTENCY REGARDING THIS SYSTEM.
HAVE REFLECTED CHANCE POPS FOR EARLY THURSDAY THROUGH EARLY FRIDAY
MORNING. PRIMARILY RAIN SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED AT THIS TIME.
