NWS Forecaster Discussion
664 fxus63 ksgf 181938 afdsgf Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Springfield MO 238 PM CDT Friday Jul 18 2008 Discussion... A minor shortwave trough currently passing over northern Missouri triggered thunderstorm activity west of the area this morning that has diminished to weak shower activity across eastern Kansas and western Missouri. This activity will die down overnight as the trough passes to the east and diurnal heating ends. Short term (saturday through monday)... A more significant shortwave trough will be moving onshore over the next few days that will build heights ahead of it over the central Continental U.S....shifting the jet north of the area. This will keep disturbances north of the County Warning Area resulting in overall dry weather through Tuesday evening. Building ridging will also bring warmer temperatures during this period. Long term (tuesday through friday)... The incoming trough is expected to support a frontal boundary that will begin pushing into northern Missouri by Tuesday evening bringing changes for precipitation over the County Warning Area during the day Wednesday. Went with only slight probability of precipitation as model consistency with this system has been poor over the last few days. Temperatures will likely trend lower beyond Wednesday as the front progresses south of the area. Kardell/Terry && Aviation... For the 18z taf package...for the most part VFR conditions will be the rule for the next 24 hours and beyond. With high pressure remaining over the region for several days now...haze has been occurring with more frequency and this should continue. Occasional bouts of MVFR visible can be expected during the overnight hours... improving slowly after sunrise each day. Otherwise...the main storm track should remain just to the northwest of the area. Cannot rule out a stray rain showers affecting the jln Aerodrome...but this should be the exception rather than the rule. Gagan && Sgf watches/warnings/advisories... MO...none. Kansas...none. && $$
