AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Kansas City/Pleasant Hill MO
1047 PM CDT Sun Sep 25 2016

.Discussion...
Issued at 315 PM CDT SUN SEP 25 2016

Surface cold front has moved through the forecast area, with cooler
and drier air advecting in behind the boundary. With the ample cloud
cover and scattered precipitation, temperatures have largely
remained in the 60s to lower 70s this afternoon. Through this
evening, expect post-frontal light showers or drizzle to continue
over the southeast half of the CWA, with dry conditions in most
sections by late evening. Cloudy skies will become clear this
evening and overnight from northwest to southeast. As clouds clear,
expect temperatures to fall into the middle 40s to lower 50s
tonight.

The week ahead looks relatively quiet and fall-like with
temperatures near or slightly below normal seasonal levels. A slow-
moving highly amplified upper trough evolving over the Great Lakes
into the Ohio Valley region will supply the area with reinforcing
shots of cool air during the week with persistent northwesterly to
northeasterly H85 flow, and dry atmospheric moisture resulting in no
appreciable weather expected through the period.

VFR conditions are expected to continue through the TAF period. Winds
will be light and variable overnight, and while the combination of
clear skies and light winds may lead to some patchy fog southwest of
the TAF sites, low-level air should be dry enough to preclude fog
formation in our area.
