Area forecast discussion, Jul 24, 3:25 PM CDT, 3 hours 52 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
325 PM CDT SUN JUL 24 2005

.DISCUSSION...AFTER FURTHER REVIEW...WILL BE ENDING HEAT ADVISORY
OVER THE FAR NORTHERN TWO TIERS OF COUNTIES THIS EVENING. OTHERWISE
GOING HEAT ADV WILL HOLD OVER THE REST OF THE AREA AS EARLIER
FORECAST.

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...

MORNING SFC MAPS CONTINUE TO SHOW VERY WEAK SFC BOUNDARY SLOWLY
DRIFTING SOUTH TOWARD US 20 THIS MORNING. STRONG SHORTWAVE OVER S
CANADA SHEARING FRONT OVER IA WHILE 2NDARY FRONT OVER NORTHERN MN
WILL BE THE MAIN RELIEVING SHOT OF COOLER AIR ARRIVING MONDAY
EVENING. DEW POINTS INITIALLY NOT AS HIGH THIS AM...BUT POOLING
EXPECTED ALONG BOUNDARY ALONG WITH CONTINUED EVAP-TRANS WILL MAKE
FOR ANOTHER UNCOMFORTABLE 36 HOURS SOUTH OF BOUNDARY. ANOTHER 1010
MB LOW HOOKS UP TO THE BOUNDARY NEAR GOODLAND KS ATTM. ALOFT WE
CONTINUE TO BE MAINLY CAPPED WITH +14C TEMPS AT H700. LAST NIGHT
ANOTHER MASSIVE MCS DEVELOPED NEAR SUPERIOR AND MOVED ALONG THE
THETAE GRADIENT INTO NORTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN. AT BOTH H500 AND H700
AT 12Z THIS AM...SHORT WAVE CONTINUES TO MOVE EAST WITH THE FLOW AND
IS RESPONSIBLE FOR CURRENT CONVECTION DEVELOPING ACROSS NORTHERN NE
AND EASTERN SOUTH DAKOTA. THOUGH H850 BOUNDARY FARTHER SOUTH
TODAY...H700 CAP SHOULD DIMINISH DEVELOPMENT OVER THE SOUTHERN EDGE
AS THE EXPECTED COMPLEX MOVES EAST...THOUGH THUNDER CHANCES REMAIN
FOR FAR NORTHERN IA THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING.

SHORT TERM (TONIGHT > WED NIGHT ) HEAT CONTINUES TO BE THE MAIN
ISSUE FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS...WITH CONVECTION 2ND ON THE LIST OF
CONCERNS THIS PERIOD. WILL CONTINUE THE HEAT ADVISORY FOR THE AREA
TONIGHT AS WELL AS THE EXTENSION FOR THE SOUTHERN AREAS OF THE STATE
MONDAY PER YESTERDAYS AFD. H500 HIGH CENTER DROPPED SE SO CORE OF
HOT DOME NO LONGER ABOVE US. NONE THE LESS H850 TEMPS STILL +25C
TODAY AND MON SOUTH HALF...SUPPORTING 95 F FOR THE AFTERNOON HIGH
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN AREAS. WITH WAVE APPROACHING THIS PM...THUNDER
ORGANIZING OVER SD MAY EVOLVE INTO A WEAK CLUSTER MOVING EAST THIS
EVENING SKIRTING NORTHERN SECTIONS OF STATE. CAPE HIGH BUT SHEAR
LOW...CAP IN PLACE SOUTH OF US 20 AND INCREASING DURING THE EVE
HOURS SHOULD HOLD MOST ACTION NORTH OF BORDER THIS EVENING/TNT. ON
MONDAY MAIN FRONT WILL ARRIVE AS THE DAY PROGRESSES. AXIS OF
GREATEST MOISTURE HAS SHIFTED INTO IL TODAY...BUT OVERALL POOL OF
HIGH DEW POINTS HAS EXPANDED WEST AND NORTH PAST 24 HOURS. WITH
CONTINUED EVAP-TRANS TDY AND MON ALONG WITH INCREASINGLY MOIST
COLUMN ADVECTING NORTHWARD AROUND BACK SIDE OF HIGH...FEEL MORE
CONFIDENT THAT GENERAL RAINS OF 1-2 INCHES ALONG WITH ISO 3-4
AMOUNTS POSSIBLE LATE MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY AM GIVEN MOVEMENT OF
FRONT SOUTH...INCREASING LIFT AND HIGH LEVELS OF MLCAPE OVERNIGHT.
GIVEN SPORADIC RAINS OF PAST 10 DAYS...LITTLE WORRY ATTM WITH REGARD
TO FLASH HYDRO WITH SOME CONCERN ON RIVER RISES IF FRONT PASSES
SOUTH MORE SLOWLY. SVR CHANCES INCREASE ON MONDAY AFTERNOON AND
MONDAY NIGHT. GREATEST THREAT ONCE AGAIN WILL BE WIND AND POSSIBLE
HAIL. BULK SHEAR INCREASING ON MONDAY EVENING WHICH WILL SUPPORT
MORE ORGANIZED STORMS AND POSSIBLE SUPERCELLS EARLY ON BEFORE LINEAR
CONVECTION EXPECTED. FORECAST FREEZING LVLS AOA 15500 MON EVENING
WHICH WILL LIMIT HAIL PRODUCTION. BOTH NAM/GFS ARE MORE IN AGREEMENT
WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE EARLY TUE LIMITING RAIN CHANCES FOR THE DAY
OVER MOST OF THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE AREA...WITH POSSIBLE
REDEVELOPMENT SOUTH PORTIONS. WILL HAVE TO REEVALUATE EXTENT OF
PRECIP TUESDAY AS PATTERN CHANGE OF THIS NATURE USUALLY FAVORS
STRONGER MESOSCALE INTERACTION ON SYNOPTIC FEATURES WHICH WOULD END
PRECIP EARLIER. LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SHOW VERY
PLEASANT AIR MAKING IT INTO THE STATE FOR WED. AFTER LOOKING AT
EURO/GFS/NAM AND SEEING PERSISTENT +12 TO +14C TEMPS...MID TO UPPER
70S LOOK TO BE MORE LIKELY. THE REGION WILL ENJOY THIS ONE

EXTENDED (THUR > SUNDAY)...GRADUAL WARMING TREND WILL CONTINUE INTO
WEEKEND WITH RIDGE BUILDING WEST. EURO/GFS BOTH SHOW NNW FLOW WAVE
APPROACHING BY LATE FRI/SAT. HAVE ADDED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR SAT
AFTERNOON...THOUGH TIMING IS STILL IN QUESTION. TEMPS BEHIND WAVE
MAY DROP ON SUNDAY...ESPECIALLY NORTH. DUE TO UNCERTAINTY OF
STRENGTH AND EXTENT OF WESTWARD COOL PUSH...HAVE KEPT SUN TEMPS
SIMILAR TO SAT FOR NOW.
