AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
625 PM CDT MON AUG 20 2007

.AVIATION DISCUSSION UPDATED.

.DISCUSSION...
DIFFICULT FORECAST TO DEAL WITH AS NONE OF THE MODELS HANDLED THE
MORNINGS CONVECTION WELL AT ALL WHICH LEAVES US QUITE CLOUDED OVER
THIS AFTERNOON.  MESOANALYSIS HAS MU CAPES OF 2-3K OVER THE WESTERN
CWA AND THERE ARE LESS CLOUDS IN THIS AREA.  THE CAVEAT IS THAT THE
ATMOSPHERE IS PRETTY WORKED OVER AND THE SHOWERS CURRENTLY ONGOING
THERE ARE FALLING APART.  LOOKS LIKE THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON
SHOULD BE RELATIVELY QUIET.  FOR TONIGHT...THE TAIL END OF THE
SHORTWAVE OUT WEST LIFTS ACROSS THE CWA AND WILL BE AIDED BY A
35-50KT LLJ DEVELOPING ACROSS THE AREA BY 06Z.  EXPECT DEVELOPMENT
TONIGHT INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS.  THE STRONGEST STORMS WILL BE
ONCE AGAIN ACROSS THE NORTH...MAINLY ALONG AND NORTH OF HIGHWAY 20
BUT WITH THAT STRONG A LLJ...WIDESPREAD STORMS WITH HEAVY RAIN COULD
OCCUR OVER A LARGE PART OF THE CWA.

THE PATTERN DOES NOT CHANGE MUCH THROUGH THE REST OF THE WEEK AS THE
FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS NEARLY STATIONARY OVER IOWA AIDED BY A
TROPICAL MOISTURE TAP AND A STRONG LLJ IN PLACE.  BEST CHANCES AT
THIS POINT APPEAR TO BE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT WITH SOME LINGERING
PRECIP IN THE MORNING.  HAVING SAID ALL THIS...THE MODELS DO SEEM TO
TARGET 12Z THURSDAY THROUGH 00Z AS A PERIOD WHERE ANOTHER FAIRLY
STRONG SHORTWAVE MOVES ACROSS THE CWA.  I HAVE PLACED HIGHER POPS IN
THE GRIDS FOR THE ENTIRE THURSDAY PERIOD AS A RESULT.

THERE IS LITTLE CHANGE IN THE PATTERN THROUGH THE WEEKEND SO THE
EXTENDED IS DRY CURRENTLY FOR THE WEEKEND WITH PRECIP CHANCES
ENTERING THE PICTURE AGAIN EARLY NEXT WEEK.  WILL NEED TO MONITOR
THIS AS WELL. FLOODING WILL CONTINUE TO BE THE MAIN THREAT AND
CURRENT WATCHES MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED THROUGH THURSDAY.  FOR NOW I
WILL LET THEM RIDE THROUGH WEDNESDAY TO SEE HOW THE MODELS CONTINUE
TO RESOLVE THE THURSDAY SYSTEM.

&&

AVIATION 21/00Z...
BOUNDARY LINGERS OVER THE NORTHERN PORTION OF THE STATE WITH LOW TO
WEST. STRONGER FRONT LIES ACROSS IA/NE BORDER WITH WITH MOISTURE
POOLED ALONG THE BOUNDARY. MODELS SUGGEST THAT CONVECTION WILL INCR
LATE THIS EVENING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA AS MOISTURE TRANSPORT
INCREASES OVER FORECAST RTES. HAVE KEPT THUNDER CHANCES WITH TEMPO
RATHER THAN LENGTHY PDS OF THUNDER. LOOKS LIKE ACTIVITY MAY BE MORE
PROGRESSIVE AND END TOWARD 12Z. VSBYS WILL COME DOWN TO MVFR/IFR CAT
ONCE THUNDER COMMENCES. /REV
