AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
348 AM CDT THU APR 6 2006

.DISCUSSION...
POTENTIAL STILL EXISTS FOR A SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK ACROSS PORTIONS
OF THE MIDWEST TODAY. CURRENT THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ALONG A
THE THETA-E ADVECTION AXIS AND THUS FAR EVERY THING HAS REMAINED
BELOW SEVERE LIMITS. THE LATEST RUC AND NAM SOLUTIONS BOTH SUGGEST
ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT FARTHER TO THE WEST AS A PUNCH OF DRY 850 MB
AIR CURRENTLY MOVING INTO SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA REACHES SOUTHWEST IOWA
TOWARD 12Z. LOW PRESSURE IS CURRENTLY ACROSS CENTRAL NEBRASKA WITH
THE WARM FRONT EXTENDING INTO NORTHERN MISSOURI. MODELS CONTINUE TO
SHIFT THE SYSTEM FARTHER TO THE SOUTH AND A LITTLE SLOWER. LOOKS TO
BE TWO AREAS OF POTENTIAL CONVECTIVE INITIATION THIS AFTERNOON...ONE
OVER EASTERN NEBRASKA AND KANSAS ALONG THE DRY LINE AND APPROACHING
500 MB COLD POOL AND ANOTHER ALONG THE WARM FRONT OVER SOUTHWEST
IOWA PROVIDED TEMPERATURES CAN PUSH INTO THE MID 70S THIS AFTERNOON.
SHEAR PROFILES STILL FAVORABLE FOR SUPERCELLS THIS AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING BEFORE BECOMING MORE LINEAR THIS EVENING AS THE
ACTIVITY LIFTS TO THE NORTHEAST WITH THE SEVERE THREAT GRADUALLY
DIMINISHING TOWARD MIDNIGHT. CAP WILL WEAKEN BY MID TO LATE
AFTERNOON ACROSS WEST CENTRAL AND SOUTHWEST IOWA AS THE COOLER MID
LEVEL TEMPERATURES MOVE IN AND COULD LEAD TO RAPID THUNDERSTORM
DEVELOPMENT. AREA REMAINS IN A MODERATE RISK WITH INITIAL THREATS
BEING LARGE HAIL AND TORNADOES EARLY THEN TRANSITIONING TO A HAIL
AND WIND THREAT IN THE EVENING. REFER TO SWODY1 FOR ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION.

WILL ISSUE A FLOOD WATCH FOR ALONG AND NORTH OF HIGHWAY 30 FOR
TONIGHT THROUGH NOON FRIDAY. THUNDERSTORMS WILL LIFT INTO THE AREA
THIS EVENING THEN WILL LINGER THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT AS THE AXIS OF
PRECIPITATION PIVOTS OVER THE REGION. GOOD OVERRUNNING EVENT STILL
LOOKS LIKELY. GOOD WARM CLOUD DEPTHS ALONG WITH PRECIPITAL WATERS
OVER 200 PERCENT OF NORMAL WILL LEAD TO RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 1 TO 2
INCHES WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS. WITH RIVERS AND STREAMS STILL
RUNNING NEAR OR AT BANKFULL OVER THE REGION...HEAVY RAINFALL WILL
AGGRAVATE THE SITUATION. A DEFORMATION RAIN BAND WILL LINGER ACROSS
THE NORTH ON FRIDAY MORNING BEFORE A SURGE OF DRY CANADIAN AIR MOVES
IN FROM THE NORTH AND WILL MOVE THE PRECIPITATION TO THE SOUTH. HAVE
CONTINUED THE TREND OF STEADY OR FALLING TEMPERATURES THROUGHOUT THE
DAY. HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVERHEAD FOR THE WEEKEND WITH
TEMPERATURES GRADUALLY WARMING BACK TO SEASONAL VALUES.

NO CHANGES TO THE EXTENDED AT THIS TIME.
