AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
630 PM CDT SAT JUN 7 2008

.UPDATED 08/00Z AVIATION DISCUSSION...

.DISCUSSION...
HAVE UPDATED ZONES TO REFLECT THE INCREASED SFC WINDS ACROSS THE
AREA. INFLOW NOW UP TO 40 MPH AT TIMES THOUGH WINDS SHOULD DROP A
BIT AFTER SUNSET...SOME GUSTS AND INFLOW SHOULD CONTINUE.

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
CONTINUED THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER ACROSS THE REGION FOR TONIGHT
WITH WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY IN PLACE OVER THE NORTHERN AREAS OF THE
STATE...STRONG MOISTURE TRANSPORT NORTH AND APPROACHING WAVE
ENERGY.  PARAMETERS SUGGEST THAT EARLY EVENING THREAT FOR TORNADOES
WILL TRANSITION TO HEAVY RAIN AND WIND THREAT AS THE NIGHT
PROGRESSES.

AS OF MID AFTERNOON...MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA WELL IN THE WARM
SECTOR WITH INCREASING CONVERGENCE ALONG THE COLD FRONT ACROSS
EASTERN NEBRASKA AND KANSAS. FOR NOW THE MAIN SEVERE THREAT WILL BE
FOCUSED OVER NORTHERN/EASTERN SECTIONS WHERE CAP IS NOT PRESENT.
MODELS DIFFER IN CAP EROSION OVERNIGHT WITH GFS CONTINUING TO
INDICATE THE CAP WILL HOLD ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH MUCH OF THE
NIGHT WITH EURO/NAM SUGGESTING A MUCH MORE MARGINAL CAP OVER THE
AREA. WILL LEAN CONSERVATIVE FOR NOW TOWARD GREATER THUNDER
POTENTIAL AS CONVERGENCE WEST OF THE AREA IS RATHER STRONG AND BOTH
GFS/NAM CORFIDI VECTORS SUGGEST BACK BUILDING/TRAINING STORMS A
PRETTY GOOD POSSIBILITY TOWARD 06Z/12Z ACROSS THE REGION. WITH THAT
IN MIND...
HAVE EXPANDED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH A FEW COUNTIES FARTHER
SOUTHEAST. STILL NOT A CERTAINTY FOR OVERNIGHT TONIGHT.

WITH THE MAIN WAVE ARRIVING ON SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...WILL BE
LOOKING AT ANOTHER POSSIBLE HEAVY RAINFALL EVENT OVER SOUTHERN
PORTIONS OF THE AREA AS ANOTHER WAVE RIDES ALONG THE BOUNDARY. AFTER
TNTS STORMS EVOLVE...WILL BE REEVALUATING WHERE THE BEST PLACEMENT
OF ANY NEW FF.A WILL BE. TEMPS TO CONTINUE WARM WITH MODEST LEVELS
OF HUMIDITY OVER THE AREA. LARGE SCALE PATTERN REMAINS THE SAME FOR
THIS PACKAGE...SO AFTER A BREAK ON TUESDAY...ANOTHER WARM AIR
ADVECTION THUNDER EVENT IS POSSIBLE WED WITH MORE WET WEATHER
THROUGH THURS/FRI. TIMING OF LATTER WEEK EVENT IS STILL IN QUESTION
BUT CONTINUE TO FAVOR THE SLOWER EURO...WHICH IS NOW KEEPING STORMS
AROUND FOR FRIDAY. GIVEN CURRENT ACTIVE WX...HAVE NOT FOCUSED
HEAVILY ON EXTENDED CHANGES AND MAY HAVE TO MODIFY TIMING OF LATE
WEEK PRECIP TOMORROW. NO MAJOR CHANGES TO TEMPS FOR THE BALANCE OF
THE WEEK.

.HYDROLOGY...
DEPENDING ON THE OUTFLOW THIS EVENING POSSIBLE THAT STORMS MAY
EXTEND A BIT FARTHER SOUTH OVERNIGHT TONIGHT...MANY PARAMETERS
CONTINUE TO COME TOGETHER FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF HEAVY RAIN AND
FLOODING TONIGHT.  300-310K MOISTURE TRANSPORT IS VERY IMPRESSIVE AS
LLJ STRENGTHENS...ALONG WITH ELEVATED INSTABILITY AND HIGH END K
INDEX.  PWS AROUND 2 INCHES...MEAN WIND PARALLEL TO FRONT AND WEAK
CORFIDI VECTOR MOVEMENT ALL SUGGEST HEAVY TRAINING RAINS.  SHOULD
AGAIN BE VERY EFFICIENT WITH HIGH WCDS.  300-310K MOISTURE
CONVERGENCE IS ALL OVER THE PLACE AMONG MODELS HOWEVER SO HAVE BROAD
BRUSHED FLASH FLOOD WATCH TO BE SAFE WITH NO FAVORED LOCATIONS.
JUST ABOUT ALL AREAS ARE JUICED AND WILL NOT TAKE MUCH TO PRODUCE
ADDITIONAL FLOODING.  QPF AMOUNTS MAY NOT BE QUITE AS HIGH AS
PREVIOUS EVENTS...BUT IT WILL NOT TAKE MUCH UNFORTUNATELY. WILL
MAINTAIN THE CURRENT WATCH...BUT EXPAND A FEW COUNTIES SOUTHEAST.

&&

.AVIATION...08/00Z
THUNDERSTORMS WITH LCL MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS IN AND AROUND TSRA.
SFC WNDS WL RMN STG FROM THE SSW GUSTING TO 35 TO 39 KTS AT TIMES
THIS EVENING.  EXPECT TSRA TO BECOME WDSPRD LATE TONIGHT WITH SEVERE
WEATHER POSSIBLE FROM THIS AFTERNOON INTO THE OVERNIGHT TIMEFRAME.
STORMS WILL CONTINUE OVER THE REGION FOR MUCH OF THE TAF
PERIOD...SLOWLY DIMINISHING FROM NW TO SE DURING THE PERIOD./REV

&&

.DMX...FLASH FLOOD WATCH TONIGHT EXPANDED SOUTHEAST TO GENERALLY
ALONG AND NW OF LAMONI-KNOXVILLE-GRINNELL LINE.
