Area forecast discussion, Aug 23, 3:16 PM CDT, 8 hours 35 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
316 PM CDT THU AUG 23 2007

..UPDATED FOR TAFS...

.DISCUSSION...
AREA OF LOW PRESSURE CURRENTLY LOCATED OVER SOUTHEAST NEBRASKA WITH
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY SITUATED THROUGH SOUTHERN IA. THE BOUNDARY WILL
SAG VERY SLOWLY SOUTH TONIGHT AND INTO THE DAY ON FRIDAY AND AREAS
ALONG AND JUST NORTH OF THIS FEATURE WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR
THUNDERSTORMS. WILL BE ADJUSTING THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH TO THE SOUTH
FOR TONIGHT AND WILL COVER MUCH OF THE SOUTH CENTRAL AREAS THROUGH
18Z FRIDAY. ONE CONCERN IS THE DRY SLOT MOVING ACROSS NORTHERN
KANSAS AND MAY LIMIT ACTIVITY AFTER THIS AFTERNOONS AND THE EARLY
EVENING ACTIVITY IN ADVANCE OF THE SYSTEM. AT THIS TIME THOUGH
EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS TO REFIRE OVERNIGHT AS THE STRENGTHENING LOW
LEVEL JET POINTS INTO THE BOUNDARY. ACTIVITY LIKELY ONGOING ACROSS
THE SOUTH ON FRIDAY MORNING THEN EXPECT THE ACTIVITY TO GRADUALLY
DECREASE IN AREAL COVERAGE DURING THE DAY. GOOD NEWS IS LOCATIONS
HARDEST HIT OVER THE PAST WEEK WILL SEE LIMITED RAINFALL OVER THE
NEXT SEVERAL DAYS AND WILL GIVE A PERIOD FOR CONDITIONS TO IMPROVE.

SOME LINGERING ACTIVITY IS POSSIBLE BEFORE 06Z FRIDAY NIGHT ACROSS
THE SOUTHEAST BEFORE MOVING OUT OF THE AREA. A DECAYING MCS MAY
REACH PORTIONS OF NORTHWEST IOWA LATE FRIDAY NIGHT AS ENOUGH
KINEMATIC FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH AN APPROACHING SHORT WAVE AND
COUPLED JET STRUCTURE MAY PROVIDE ENOUGH FORCING TO ALLOW THE SYSTEM
TO UNDERCUT THE HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM THAT WILL BE ENTERING THE
