.DISCUSSION...
MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS INCLUDE CONVECTIVE TIMING/TRENDS/PLACEMENT
AND HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL THROUGH MID WEEK. FOR THIS EVENING...I
EXPECT MAIN AREA OF STORMS TO BE OVER SOUTHEAST HALF TO THIRD OF
FORECAST AREA. MOISTURE STILL RECOVERING FROM LAST NIGHTS STORMS SO
CONVECTION SHOULDNT BE AFFECTING OUR CWA UNTIL AROUND 5 PM OR SO.
SOME 1-2 INCH HAIL IS POSSIBLE...ALONG WITH A FEW 60 MPH GUSTS WITH
INVERTED-V TYPE SOUNDINGS. OVERNIGHT...FOCUS WILL SHIFT TO NORTHERN
IOWA WITH A STRONGER S/W NOW ACROSS THE HIGH PLAINS. MCS POSSIBLE
AFTER MIDNIGHT...BUT SVR AND FF THREAT SHOULD BE ISOLATED. LOOKING
AHEAD...SHORT RANGE MODELS HAVE PICKED UP ON RECENT TREND OF SHOVING
OUTFLOW AND PRECIP FARTHER TO THE SOUTH. SPC HAS SHOVED SLT RISK
INTO FAR SOUTHERN IA FOR MONDAY. WL KEEP LOW POPS IN SOUTH AND EAST
FOR STORMS ALONG COLD FRONT DURING THE MORNING...BUT THE BOUNDARY
AND SVR THREAT SHOULD BE IN MISSOURI DURING PEAK AFTERNOON HEATING.
CONVECTION EXPECTED TO STAY SOUTH AND WEST OF THE FORECAST AREA
MONDAY NIGHT...BUT WL HANG ON TO POPS SOUTH TO COVER GFS
SCENARIO...ALTHOUGH THAT MODEL IS ALSO TRENDING FARTHER SOUTH WITH
PRECIP.

A WARM FRONT LIFTING NORTH INTO THE STATE WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR
SEVERE WEATHER AND HEAVY RAIN TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. MOST LOCATIONS
ACROSS CENTRAL IOWA COULD RECEIVE 1 TO 2 INCHES THROUGH THE
PERIOD...LOCALLY 3 TO 4...WITH SEVERAL THUNDERSTORM COMPLEXES. ALL
MODES OF SEVERE WEATHER POSSIBLE.
