H5 LOW CONITNUES ON TRACK THIS AFTERNOON. DIRUNRAL HEATING HAS

TO BACK ALLOWS TEMPS TO WARM THE UPPER 70S BEFORE NEXT SYSTEM DROPS
SOUTHEAST OUT OF CANADA LATE IN THE WEEK. FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL

.AVIATION DISCUSSION FOR 18Z TAFS...
1230 PM CDT

THE UPPER LOW OVER ERN IOWA WILL MOVE VERY SLOWLY EWD OVER THE NEXT
SEVERAL HOURS.  SKIES HAVE GONE BKN OVER NCNTRL IL...ALLOWING SOME
SFC INSOLATION AND INCREASING LOW-LVL INSTABILITY. SCT SHRA AND ISOL
TS HAVE ALREADY DVLPD JUST WEST OF RFD AND SHOULD CONTINUE TO DVLP
EWD DURG THE AFTN HOURS.  FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON AND
EARLY EVENING HOURS...TS AS WELL AS CIGS WILL BE PROBLEMATIC.  GIVEN
THE SLOW EWD PROGRESSION OF THE UPR LOW...FEEL THAT TS ARE LIKELY TO
AFFECT THE TAF SITES...BUT INDIVIDUAL CELLS SHUD BE SCT AND WL BE
MOVING NWD AT ARND 20KT.  SO...WILL GO WITH A TEMPO GROUP FOR TS TO
TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE SPEED AND SCT NATURE OF THE CELLS.
AFTER SUNSET...TS LIKELYHOOD SHOULD DECREASE AS THE MAIN SOURCE OF
INSTABILITY IS THE COLD POOL ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER LOW.
WITH SFC COOLING AFTER SUNSET...THE DEEP LAYER INSTABILITY SHOULD
DECREASE.  TWD MORNING...VSBY WILL BECOME THE AREA OF CONCERN.  WITH
THE RAIN THAT OCCURRED LAST NIGHT AND ANY ADDITIONAL RAINFALL LATER
TODAY...THE LOW LEVELS WILL REMAIN QUITE MOIST.  WINDS ARE EXPECTED
TO REMAIN VERY LIGHT DUE TO THE VERY WEAK PRESSURE GRADEINT AT THE
SFC.  SO AT THE VERY LEAST...MVFR VIS IS EXPECTED WITH FURTHER
REDUCTIONS TO IFR POSSIBLE.  BY LATE MORNING...FCST RH TIMESECTIONS
ARE INDICATING THAT SKIES SHOULD GO SCT.  THE REGION WILL SHIFT TO A
MORE COLD ADVECTIVE PATTERN UNDER NLY WINDS AROUND THE BACK SIDE OF
THE UPPER FLOW.
