AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
320 PM CDT THU JUN 12 2008

.DISCUSSION...
A STATIONARY FRONT IS DRAPED ACROSS IOWA...STRETCHING FROM AROUND
DECORAH...TO NEAR NEWTON...DOWN TO AROUND LAMONI. TO THE NORTHWEST
OF THIS FRONT SKIES ARE PARTLY CLOUDY BENEATH AC WITH NO RAIN.
SOUTHEAST OF THE BOUNDARY LOW CLOUDS ARE MORE ABUNDANT...DEWPOINTS
ARE IN THE MID 60S TO NEAR 70...AND SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND MOVE NORTHEASTWARD. INSTABILITY IS
INCREASING...ESPECIALLY IN OUR FAR SOUTHEASTERN COUNTIES...AND
SEVERE WEATHER IS A POSSIBILITY LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.
EARLY TONIGHT...A LARGE MID-LEVEL CYCLONE OVER THE FAR NORTHERN
PLAINS WILL MOVE EASTWARD...AND THE WESTERLY FLOW ON ITS SOUTHERN
PERIPHERY WILL FINALLY SHOVE THE STATIONARY FRONT GRADUALLY
SOUTHEASTERN OUT OF OUR AREA BY FRIDAY MORNING. THIS WILL RESULT IN
SLOWLY DIMINISHING RAIN CHANCES ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST OVERNIGHT.
WINDS WILL BE FAIRLY LIGHT THROUGHOUT THE CWA AS WE REMAIN IN A WEAK
PRESSURE GRADIENT. SOME PATCHY FOG IS POSSIBLE IN THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS...ESPECIALLY IN CENTRAL AND SOUTHEASTERN IOWA WHERE WINDS WILL
BE LIGHTEST AND DEWPOINTS HIGHER...HOWEVER DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH
CONFIDENCE IN THE THICKNESS OF ANY SUCH FOG TO INCLUDE IT IN THE
OFFICIAL FORECAST AT THIS TIME.  LONGER TERM THE WX LOOKS MUCH
QUIETER WTIH PTRN CHNG TO A MROE NWLY FLOW INSTEAD OF THE -PNA
PATTERN WEVE BEEN IN.  NEXT FNTL SYS WILL MOV THRUT THE AREA SUN
INTO MON WITH ANOTHER ROUND OF TSRA.  QPF FROM THIS SYS IS LKLY TO
BE QUITE A BIT UNDER WHAT THE LAST FEW HAVE BEEN.  AFT THAT SYS
PASSES...THERE SHOULD BE A FEW MORE QUITE DAYS INTO NEXT WEEK.
TEMPS WL REMAIN AOB NORMAL THRU THE PD.
