606 AM CDT SUN JUN 8 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE IN THE CENTRAL PLAINS WITH FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS
NORTHEAST IOWA AND INTO CENTRAL WISCONSIN. THE LOW WILL TRACK INTO
THE GREAT LAKES ON MONDAY GRADUALLY SHIFTING THE BOUNDARY TO OUR
SOUTHEAST. A COUPLE OF DAYS OF QUIET WEATHER ABOUT MID-WEEK AS UPPER
TROUGH SWINGS BY AND WEAK RIDGING OCCURS. ANOTHER DEEP TROUGH MOVES
INTO THE WESTERN UNITED STATES RETURNING THE PERSISTENT STORMY
PATTERN TO THE REGION LATE IN THE WEEK AND INTO NEXT WEEKEND.

..HAASE..

&&

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND MONDAY...
FRONTAL BOUNDARY EXTENDS FROM WESTERN KS TO NORTHEAST IA AND INTO
CENTRAL WI. VERY JUICY AIR SOUTH OF THE BOUNDARY COUPLED WITH FAIRLY
STRONG LOW LEVEL JET THAT PERSISTS ALL DAY AND INTO TONIGHT. THIS
WILL CONTINUE TO GENERATE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS MUCH OF THE DVN CWA.
OTHER THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO BECOME SEVERE THIS AFTERNOON
AND INTO TONIGHT.

WILL CONTINUE FLASH FLOOD WATCH THROUGH MONDAY MORNING FOR AREAS
ALONG AND NORTH OF I-80. HOWEVER AS BOUNDARY SAGS SOUTHWARD A HEAVY
RAIN EVENT APPEARS TO BE SHAPING UP FOR LATER TONIGHT AND MONDAY
ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN CWA. THE WATCH WILL
PROBABLY NEED TO BE EXPANDED ON MONDAY TO COVER THAT PORTION OF THE
CWA AND WILL NEED TO BE EXTENDED TO INCLUDE MUCH OF MONDAY.

.LONG TERM...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT SATURDAY...
UPPER TROUGH WILL SWING THROUGH THE REGION BY TUESDAY SHOVING
BOUNDARY DOWN TO OUR SOUTH. WEAK RIDGING OCCURS ABOUT MID-WEEK
GIVING US A COUPLE OF QUIET DAYS. DEEP TROUGH MOVES INTO THE WESTERN
UNITED STATES LATER IN THE WEEK RETURNING THE SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT.
THIS WILL BRING THE BOUNDARY BACK INTO THE REGION ALONG WITH WARM
JUICY AIR. STORMY PATTERN SHOULD START UP AGAIN LATE IN THE WEEK AND
INTO NEXT WEEKEND.

..HAASE..

&&

.AVIATION...
SHOWERS/TSTMS WILL BE FAIRLY WIDESPREAD ACROSS THE AREA THIS MORNING...
ESPECIALLY NORTH OF I 80 AND WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI... AS CENTRAL IA
CONVECTION MOVES EAST WHILE ADDITIONAL ELEVATED CONVECTION BLOSSOMS
ON NOSE OF VEERED 50-60 KT LOW LEVEL JET. RESIDUAL BOUNDARIES LIKELY TO
FUEL ADDITIONAL STORM DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON WITH POTENTIAL UPGROWTH
INTO ONE OR MORE THUNDERSTORM COMPLEXES TONIGHT AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT
AS IT SAGS SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE AREA. CIGS GENERALLY LOWER VFR RANGE TO
MVFR EXCEPT IFR CONDITIONS WITH STORMS.      ..05..

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
FLASH FLOOD THREAT CONTINUES TODAY THROUGH MONDAY AS THE BOUNDARY
SAGS SLOWLY SOUTHEAST. AT LEAST SEVERAL INCHES OF RAIN CAN BE
EXPECTED OVER MUCH OF THE CWA WITH VERY MOIST AIR IN PLACE. ANY
INTENSE THUNDERSTORM OR TRAINING OF STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF
PRODUCING SEVERAL INCHES OF RAIN IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. IT IS
NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT SOME AREAS COULD EXCEED 6 INCHES OF RAIN
IF THUNDERSTORMS PERSIST FOR SEVERAL HOURS. THIS ADDITIONAL RAINFALL
WILL INCREASE THE SEVERITY OF THE CURRENT FLOODING SITUATION.
