   ...THERE IS A SLGT RISK OF SVR TSTMS SRN LOWER MI TO NERN AR...
   
   ...SYNOPSIS...
   AMIDST BROADLY CYCLONIC FLOW...PROGRESSIVE MID/UPPER LEVEL PATTERN
   IS EXPECTED ACROSS CONUS.  MOST IMPORTANT SHORTWAVE FEATURE IS
   TROUGH INDICATED IN MOISTURE CHANNEL IMAGERY OVER INTERIOR PACIFIC
   NW ATTM.  EXPECT THIS FEATURE TO MOVE RAPIDLY ESEWD THEN EWD ACROSS
   CENTRAL/NRN ROCKIES AND PLAINS...REACHING TO NEAR LOWER OH VALLEY
   AND LOWER MI REGION BY END OF PERIOD.  PRONOUNCED AMPLIFICATION IS
   FCST...WITH ONLY MINOR DISCREPANCIES IN SREF AND DETERMINISTIC PROGS
   SHAPE AND TILT OF THIS PERTURBATION BY 06/12Z.
   
   AT SFC..FRONTAL WAVE CYCLOGENESIS NOW ANALYZED OVER N-CENTRAL/NWRN
   OK WILL CONTINUE THROUGH BEGINNING OF PERIOD THEM SHIFT NEWD...AS
   LOW MOVES FROM KS/OK BORDER REGION TO VICINITY NERN MO/NRN IL BY
   06/00Z.  CONSIDERABLE DEEPENING EXPECTED DURING LATTER HALF OF
   PERIOD INTO EARLY DAY-2...WITH PRONOUNCED SYNOPTIC LOW PROBABLY
   MOVING NEWD ACROSS LOWER MI AROUND 06/12Z.  ASSOCIATED FRONTAL ZONE
   -- NOW DRAWN QUASISTATIONARY FROM SRN LM ACROSS CENTRAL MO TO NWRN
   OK -- SHOULD STRENGTHEN AND SWEEP SEWD OVER OK...OZARKS REGION AND
   WRN/NRN IL FOLLOWING PASSAGE OF SFC CYCLONE.  MEANWHILE WARM FRONT
   WILL MOVE SLOWLY NWD ACROSS LOWER GREAT LAKES AREA AND LOWER MI.
   
   ...GREAT LAKES TO LOWER/MID MS VALLEY...
   WITH MORE ROBUST BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTURE THIS PATTERN COULD YIELD A
   MAJOR SEVERE EVENT.  AS IT STANDS...SCATTERED TSTMS WITH DAMAGING
   WIND POTENTIAL STILL SHOULD DEVELOP MID/LATE AFTERNOON INTO LATE
   EVENING NEAR AND S OF SFC CYCLONE...DAMAGING WIND BEING MAIN THREAT.
    WIDELY SCATTERED/MARGINALLY SEVERE HAIL AND PERHAPS A BRIEF TORNADO
   MAY BE POSSIBLE AS WELL.
   
   SHORT-LIVED BOW OR SUPERCELL MODES ARE POSSIBLE NEAR COLD FRONT AND
   SFC LOW WITHIN FIRST FEW HOURS AFTER CONVECTIVE INITIATION...BEFORE
   DEVELOPMENT OF SQUALL LINE IN SWD/DISCRETELY BACKBUILDING FASHION. 
   CELL MOTION SHOULD NOT BE MUCH DIFFERENT THAN THAT OF FORCING
   BOUNDARY...AMIDST NEARLY UNIDIRECTIONAL FLOW ALONG/AHEAD OF COLD
   FRONT. EMBEDDED LEWP/BOW STRUCTURES WILL ENHANCE WIND DAMAGE THREAT
   LOCALLY.  ANOTHER REGIME OF HAIL MAY BE POSSIBLE WITH MOST INTENSE
   CELLS EMBEDDED IN PLUME OF SCATTERED-NUMEROUS TSTMS THAT SHOULD
   DEVELOP THROUGHOUT AFTERNOON AND INTO OVERNIGHT HOURS ALONG AND N OF
   WARM FRONT.  PRIMARY MODE OF UNCERTAINTY ATTM IS SWD/EWD EXTENT OF
   ACTIVITY AWAY FROM SFC LOW...AND AS SUCH...AWAY FROM MOST INTENSE
   LOW LEVEL FORCING.
   
   EXAMINATION OF UPSTREAM AIR MASSES AT VARIOUS LEVELS INDICATE
   POTENTIAL FOR SUFFICIENTLY MOIST/BUOYANT/UNSTABLE AIR MASS...BUT
   ALSO...STRONG CAPPING THAT SHOULD RESTRICT TIMING AND COVERAGE OF
   DEVELOPMENT.  SFC...925 AND 850 MB ANALYSES SAMPLE DISTINCT LOW
   LEVEL MOISTURE PLUME -- CONSISTING OF FORMERLY CONTINENTAL AIR THAT
   HAS BEEN MODIFYING OVER GULF FOR SEVERAL DAYS -- AXIS EXTENDING FROM
   YUCATAN PENINSULA TO SERN LA TO ERN MS/AL.  850-700 MB ANALYSES AND
   UPSTREAM SOUNDINGS SHOW STRONG ELEVATED MIXED LAYER THAT WILL
   CONTINUE TO ADVECT NEWD FROM MEX PLATEAU AND SRN HIGH PLAINS ACROSS
   MS VALLEY THROUGH MOST OF PERIOD...AHEAD OF MIDLEVEL TROUGH. 
   ASSOCIATED CAPPING WILL RENDER TSTM AND SEVERE PROBABILITIES SMALLER
   AND MORE CONDITIONAL WITH SWD EXTENT INVOF COLD FRONT.
   
   MID 50S TO LOW 60S F SFC DEW POINTS SHOULD BE COMMON BY LATE
   AFTERNOON AHEAD OF COLD FRONT FROM OZARKS REGION NEWD ACROSS
   IL/INDIANA...SHIFTING INTO LOWER MI WITH WARM FROPA.  THIS SHOULD
   COMBINE WITH SEASONALLY STRONG SFC WAA AND DIABATIC HEATING TO YIELD
   MLCAPES 1500-2000 J/KG OVER WARM SECTOR.  ELEVATED MUCAPES 500-1000
   J/KG ARE POSSIBLE JUST N OF SFC LOW AND WARM FRONT DURING
   AFTERNOON/EVENING...IN ZONE OF INTENSE LOW LEVEL ISENTROPIC ASCENT. 
   ROUGHLY STRAIGHT LOW-MIDLEVEL HODOGRAPHS SHOULD CHARACTERIZE MOST OF
   WARM SECTOR...EXCEPT IN IMMEDIATE VICINITY SFC CYCLONE AND WARM
   FRONT WHERE BACKED SFC FLOW WILL INDUCE MORE PRONOUNCED CURVATURE
   AND HELP TO BOOST 0-1 KM SRH TO NEAR 150 J/KG. EFFECTIVE SHEARS
   ALSO SHOULD INCREASE WITH NWD EXTENT...35-45 KT OVER MUCH OF WARM
   SECTOR BUT 55-65 KT INVOF WARM FRONT.
   
   EXPECT MAIN CONVECTIVE LINE TO DECLINE GRADUALLY IN BOTH COVERAGE
   AND INTENSITY AFTER ABOUT 06/03Z...AS BOUNDARY LAYER DECOUPLES AND
   COOLS...ELEVATING LAYER OF OPTIMALLY BUOYANT INFLOW.
