AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
320 PM CDT SUN SEP 18 2005

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT
FAST EVOLVING SITUATION EXPECTED TONIGHT AS SURFACE LOW ON KS/NEB
BORDER DEVELOPS NEWD IN RESPONSE TO ONE SHORT WAVE IN A SERIES
LIFTING OUT OF WRN KS. WARM SECTOR HAS BEEN STALLED W OF MISSOURI
RIVER BY THUNDERSTORMS IN MO THIS MORNING. THIS SHOULD LIFT RAPIDLY
TO THE NE THIS EVENING WITH STRONG THETA-E ADVECTION INDICATED IN
THE 850-700 MB LAYER BY ALL MODELS ACROSS IA BY 06Z. EXPECT STORMS
TO DEVELOP AROUND SUNSET AND MOVE QUICKLY NEWD WITH THETA-E
ADVECTION MAX. THESE STORMS WILL BE SOMEWHAT ELEVATED BUT
INSTABILITY AND SHEAR WILL BE MODERATE...SO MAIN THREAT WOULD BE
LARGE HAIL AND ISOLATED DAMAGING WIND...WITH A BRIEF PERIOD OF HEAVY
RAIN. AT THE SAME TIME...STRONG STORMS SHOULD ALSO DEVELOP NW OF THE
SFC LOW AND INVERTED TROUGH FROM NERN NEB/SERN SD INTO NRN IA AND
SRN MN. THESE STORMS WILL BE MORE SURFACE BASED WITH STRONGER
SHEAR...SO A SMALL PORTION OF THE NWRN DMX FORECAST AREA MAY HAVE A
THREAT FOR MORE SIGNIFICANT SEVERE WEATHER. TWO AREAS SHOULD MERGE
TOGETHER PRODUCING LONGEST DURATION AND HIGHEST POPS OVER NRN IA.

.LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH SUNDAY
A FAIRLY ACTIVE PATTERN REMAINS OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST.  HIGH
PRESSURE REMAINS ANCHORED OVER THE SOUTHERN U.S. WITH SEVERAL
SHORTWAVES RIDING OVER THE RIDGE ABOUT EVERY 36 HOURS OR SO.
TONIGHTS SYSTEM PUSHES EAST OF THE CWA BY 15Z MON AT THE LATEST
FOLLOWED BY HIGH PRESSURE MOVING IN AND CLEARING THINGS OUT.  WE
STAY DRY THROUGH TUESDAY EVENING BEFORE THE NEXT SHORTWAVE BEGINS TO
AFFECT LOCATIONS SOUTH AND WEST OF THE CWA LATE TUESDAY NIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY.  NONE OF THE MODELS HAVE A HANDLE ON TIMING OF THESE
FEATURES SO I AM GOING WITH PERSISTENCE FOR THE MOST PART.  BY LATE
TUESDAY NIGHT A SURFACE LOW PUSHES INTO S DKTA AND LIFTS A WARM
FRONT ACROSS THE CWA.  GOOD THETA ADVECTION OCCURS SOUTHWEST AND
EVENTUALLY ADVECTS INTO SRN IA EARLY WEDNESDAY SO I HAVE SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS ACROSS THE SOUTH WEDNESDAY.  THE SURFACE LOW DEEPENS AND
LIFTS NORTHEAST THROUGH THURSDAY SO I KEEP CHANCE POPS/SLIGHT CHANCE
POPS GOING THROUGH THURSDAY.  PRECIP CHANCES DWINDLE WITH FROPA THEN
LATE FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY WE REPEAT THE PROCESS.  THE WEEKEND
SYSTEM SHOWS SIGNS OF THE  FRONT SLOWING DOWN OR STALLING OVER THE
CWA SO I KEEP SLIGHT CHANCES GOING INTO SATURDAY NIGHT BUT I KEPT
SUNDAY DRY AGAINST MODEL GUIDANCE.  THESE SYSTEMS HAVE BEEN
PROGRESSIVE TO DATE SO MY CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON THE FRONT STALLING
BUT AT DAY 7 WE WILL HAVE SEVERAL RUNS TO LOOK AT AND GET A FEEL FOR
THAT.

AS FOR TEMPS...THEY WILL BE ON A BIT OF A ROLLER COASTER BUT STILL
ABOVE NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.  EACH SUCCESSIVE SHORTWAVE WILL
HAVE WAA AHEAD OF THE FEATURE WHICH SHOULD BUMP TEMPS UP INTO THE
80S THEN HAVE 70S FOLLOWING FROPA. I GENERALLY WENT ABOVE GUIDANCE
AS THEY ARE NOT HANDLING THE ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS TOO WELL.

.DMX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.
