NWS Kansas City, MO wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 6, 5:31 PM CST, 1 hour 11 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Kansas City/Pleasant Hill MO 631 PM CDT Mon Jun 6 2022 .Discussion... Issued at 310 PM CDT MON JUN 6 2022 Key Messages... - Isolated thunderstorms this afternoon in northern Missouri. - Near nightly/morning thunderstorm complexes traversing the region tonight, Tuesday night, and Thursday night. - Strong complex of storms expected in eastern Kansas and western Missouri late Tuesday into Wednesday Morning. Pockets of damaging winds are the greatest concerns at present. Detailed Discussion... Subsidence on the heels of the remnant MCV crossing the Ozarks this morning fostered clearing across most of northwest Missouri. Through the afternoon, a decent cu field has developed while a focused cluster of thunderstorms continues to slowly evolve across south central Iowa into far northern Missouri, rooted along a weak frontal boundary and buoyed by ample mid to high 60s dew points this afternoon. Current thoughts are for this activity to continue to slowly build south and southeast across northern Missouri through the early evening. A few updrafts may be strong, posing an isolated risk of hail with support from modest mid-level lapse rates and deep layer shear. Remaining focused along the weak surface boundary, expect this activity to sink as far south as central Missouri by 7 PM CDT, before dissipating around sunset. Overnight, Similar to last night, convection is expected to develop with support from a weak upper short wave traversing NE/KS. MCS maintenance progs suggest by the time the complex reaches eastern Kansas and western Missouri, it will be weakening and moving southeast, generally toward the four states region, but some showers/isolated thunder as far north as the KC Metro around sunrise. No severe weather is expected for the region at this time with this complex. Tuesday, the series of passing short waves does not end, with another, likely more prominent MCS moving through the region late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning. With focused forcing for ascent along a surface boundary dropping south across Nebraska into a well supportive environment for convective initiation, dew points in the upper 60s combined with ample diurnal heating to support MLCAPE values over 2000 J/Kg, and modest deep layer shear and mid- level lapse rates, anticipate initiation by mid-afternoon near the triple point in southwest Nebraska/northwest Kansas. For more forecast details on this activity, check with the Nebraska and Kansas Offices and latest SPC Day 2 Discussion. As this activity evolves into one or more clusters of storms, becoming an MCS overnight, it is expected to traverse east and southeast through eastern Kansas into western Missouri after Midnight through sunrise. The truth is, given the under-performance of the past two forecast MCSs in the 36 to 24 hour forecast window, this one does seem to be better resolved and with more classic MCS parameters while viewing the different flavors of CAMs. Confidence is such that a complex of storms will move through the area early Wednesday morning. Strong with isolated severe winds is possible. Storms should be exiting to the east and southeast by Noon to mid-afternoon. A shift in the synoptic pattern, away from primarily zonal flow across the region, will begin to take shape Thursday into Friday. With a building ridge over the western U.S., another upper short wave trough will traverse the region Thursday night into Friday morning bringing a complex of thunderstorms with it... again. && .Aviation...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Tuesday Evening) Issued at 629 PM CDT MON JUN 6 2022 Scattered thunderstorms near the terminals will decrease in coverage around sunset and will remain quiet through the rest of the late evening and overnight. There is some hint of some isolated thunderstorm activity around sunrise, but uncertainty and low coverage will preclude a prevailing mention for now. Will continue to monitor and update with future TAF. && .EAX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... KS...NONE. MO...NONE. && Discussion...Kurtz Aviation...Leighton
