NWS Kansas City, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Sep 7, 10:38 PM CST, 1 hour 30 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Kansas City/Pleasant Hill MO 1138 PM CDT Sat Sep 7 2019 .Discussion... Issued at 34 PM CDT SAT SEP 7 2019 Looking at satellite imagery this afternoon, a moderately amplified pattern is in place across the Nation; thanks to a ridge axis poking north along the spine of the Rockies and trough over the far eastern Canada; thus leaving our section of the country under a northwest flow. Within said northwest flow, a significant shortwave is seen spinning its way east across the Montana-Dakota border, on its way to crossing the Northern and Central Plains this weekend. Looking closer to the surface, a lee side low is noted across north central Nebraska, with an occluded frontal boundary stretching south into northwest Kansas. Rest of the day, will be rather nice, with a few showers possible near the Missouri-Nebraska border due to some over running moisture streaming ahead of the occluded surface front and upper level shortwave trough. Tonight, is when we expect showers and thunderstorms to move across eastern Kansas and the northern half of Missouri as the Montana- Dakota trough sweeps across the Plains. Expectations are for the shower activity, threatening to move into far northwest Missouri this afternoon, to persist into the evening hours as a weak 850mb jet ahead of the trough and occluded front keeps moisture feeding into the region. Moisture convergence will rapidly increase late tonight with the onset of the nocturnal jet, but this will also bring some elevated instability, with various models advertising some MUCAPE advecting in across northern Missouri on the nose of the jet. This, coupled with some locally induced increase in 0-6KM shear values from local storms, may result in a few strong storms this evening. Of particular concern for tonight is if the storms organize into a progressive line, which would sweep east across northern Missouri during the early morning hours of Sunday. This would make some marginally severe hail or wind possible; but the primary concern tonight will be on the potential for flash flooding. Precipitable water values will be near to just over two inches tonight as the storms move through, and if an organized system developed it could put down a lot of rain across far northern Missouri very fast. That said, we have been dry for a bit, so the ground, river, creeks, and streams can take a bit of water; but flash flooding will likely need monitoring overnight. Storms will persist into the morning hours of Sunday, with a lingering boundary possibly providing a weak focus for scattered showers into the early afternoon hours across areas within a county or two north or south of Highway 36 in northern Missouri. Rest of Sunday into the beginning of next work week, will see potential for storms shift north as the ridge axis over the Rockies starts to move out into the Plains States. But, while the overall threat is shifting a bit north, there will still be a threat of storms along the Iowa border Sunday night into Monday. Otherwise, expect Sunday's temperatures to be a bit cooler in areas near the Iowa border (thanks to the rain), but in general expect warm temperatures with highs 80s, tiptoeing to around 90 to start the work week as the western ridge moves in over the Plains, allowing a warming southwest flow to take over. && .Aviation...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Sunday Night) Issued at 1131 PM CDT SAT SEP 7 2019 Thunderstorm complex expected to move through the terminals between 06-08Z. Periods of heavy rain may reduce visibilities to 3SM and the terminals could see some gusty winds as the storms move through. Rain showers may linger through 12-14Z with IFR/MVFR cigs possible before rising to VFR. Dominant winds will generally be out of the east at 12kts or less after 14Z. && .EAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KS...NONE. MO...NONE. && Discussion...Cutter Aviation...PPietrycha
