AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SPRINGFIELD MO
1219 PM CDT SAT JUL 20 2013

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)

ONE OF THE MOST CHALLENGING PRECIPITATION FORECASTS WE'VE HAD IN A
FEW YEARS. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT WE HAVE SEVERAL PERIODS WHERE WE
CAN IDENTIFY RAIN POSSIBLE...WHICH COULD IMPROVE THE DRIER THAN
NORMAL CONDITIONS THAT ARE ONGOING.

THE FIRST CHANCE FOR RAIN WILL OCCUR THIS AFTERNOON...AS A SAGGING
FRONTAL SYSTEM APPROACHES FROM THE NORTH. I'M NOT SURE HOW MUCH
FORCING THIS FRONT WILL ENCOURAGE. HOWEVER...EVEN WITH MINIMAL
LIFT...SCATTERED PULSE THUNDERSTORMS ARE VERY LIKELY...ESPECIALLY
OVER SOUTHERN MISSOURI.

A TROPICAL LIKE AIR MASS HAS BECOME WELL ESTABLISHED OVER THE
AREA...HOLDING PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES RANGING FROM 1.60 TO 1.80
INCHES. MEANWHILE...NO INHIBITION LAYERS ARE EXPECTED WITH DIURNAL
HEATING...AND MIXED LAYER CAPES INCREASE TO AROUND 2000 J/KG.
THESE INGREDIENTS WILL PROMOTE PULSE STORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING. LIKE YESTERDAY...THERE IS A LIMITED RISK FOR
DOWNBURST WIND GUSTS. TEMPERATURES TODAY WILL BE A COUPLE OF
DEGREES COOLER THAN YESTERDAY...WITH A MIX OF SUN AND CLOUDS.

FOR TONIGHT...MOST OF THE MODELS SHOW A NOCTURNAL THUNDERSTORM
COMPLEX UNFOLDING ACROSS THE PLAINS...AND ATTEMPTING TO REACH THE
OZARKS SUNDAY MORNING. I'M NOT SURE IF THESE STORMS MAKE IT INTO
THE AREA. HOWEVER...IT'S ASSOCIATED SHORTWAVE WILL MAKE IT BY
SUNDAY AFTERNOON. WITH A MOIST AND UNSTABLE AIR MASS STILL IN
PLACE...THIS FEATURE WILL TRIGGER A DECENT COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS.

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)

MODELS SHOW A SERIES OF WEAK DISTURBANCE MIGRATING THROUGH THE
NORTHWEST FLOW POSITIONED OVER THE OZARKS THROUGH MOST OF NEXT
WEEK. THIS SURE MAKES FOR A CHALLENGING PRECIPITATION
FORECAST...SINCE TIMING THESE SUBTLE WAVES DAYS IN ADVANCE IS
TOUGH.

THE SUMMERTIME HIGH REMAINS POSITIONED OVER THE DESERT SOUTHWEST
THROUGH AT LEAST THURSDAY. THIS WILL MITIGATE TEMPERATURES FROM
GETTING OUT OF CONTROL...WITH NEAR NORMAL READINGS EXPECTED ON
BOTH AN AFTERNOON AND NIGHTLY BASIS.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SUNDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1214 PM CDT SAT JUL 20 2013

MAINLY VFR CONDITIONS CAN BE EXPECTED THROUGH THE NEXT 24 HOURS
BUT ONE EXCEPTION WILL BE TEMPORARY DROPS IN VIS DUE TO SCATTERED CONVECTION
AND HAVE TEMPO GROUPS TO MENTION THIS. WINDS WILL BE LIGHT
STARTING OFF WESTERLY BECOMING VARIABLE THIS EVENING AND THEN
BECOMING SOUTHERLY LATE TONIGHT AND TOMORROW MORNING LESS THAN 10
KNOTS. HAVE MENTIONED VCTS FOR THE REST OF THE AFTERNOON INTO THE
EARLY NIGHT HOURS AND TEMPO GROUPS FOR MVFR VIS DUE TO TSRA. MOST
CONVECTION SHOULD DIMINISH BY 04Z THIS EVENING BUT REDEVELOP ONCE
AGAIN BY MIDDAY TOMORROW.
