AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...ADDED HYDROLOGY PARAGRAPH
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE QUAD CITIES IA IL
349 PM CDT MON JUN 2 2008

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND TUESDAY...
ELEVATED WING OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS WILL
CONTINUE TO IMPACT AREAS MAINLY NORTH OF I80 THROUGH MID EVENING
BEFORE EXPECTING SOME DECREASE DIURNALLY....ALSO COMPLEX ACRS MO
HAVING SOME ENERGY STEALING IMPACT. THE CURRENT ACTIVITY MAY STRUGGLE
AS IT CROSSES THE MS RVR AS WELL. ALL EYES FOCUS BACK TO THE WEST
THIS EVENING AS BULK OF MCS SPAWNING PARAMETERS COME TOGETHER OVER
NORTH CENTRAL KS AND MUCH OF CENTRAL NEB TO NORTHEAST OF LLVL
CYCLOGENESIS JUST NORTH OF OK PANHANDLE JUST NORTH OF MID LEVEL CAP
ACRS SOUTHERN INTO CENTRAL PLAINS. AFTER ORGANIZED CONVECTION BLOWS
IN THESE AREAS THIS EVENING...LATEST SUITE OF SHORT RANGE MODELS
STILL VARY ON WHERE RESULTANT MCS WILL PROPAGATE. FORCING SIGNALS AND
CONVERGENT WING ON NOSE OF LLJ AS IT VEERS AND INCREASES ACRS IA AS
THE NIGHT PROGRESSES SUPPORTS A DIRECT HIT ON THE DVN CWA 20-40 MILES
EITHER SIDE OF THE I80 CORRIDOR...WHILE BULK OF THE MODEL QPF IMPACTS
THE SOUTHERN TO SOUTHWEST THIRD OF THE DVN CWA MAINLY AFTER 05Z AND
LASTING INTO TUE MORNING. EXTENT OF FORCING AND WARM MOIST
CONVEYOR/THAT-E FEED SUPPORT WIDESPREAD 1-3 INCHES WITH LOCALLY
HIGHER POSSIBLY OVER 4 INCHES IN AREAS THAT DO GET IMPACTED BY AN
MCS LATER TONIGHT. WILL HESITANTLY HOLD OFF A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR
NOW WITH MOST OF THE SOUTH HALF OF THE DVN CWA ABLE TO TAKE 1-3
INCHES OF RAIN IN 3-6 HRS...WITH THE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE AREAS FOR
FLOODING ALONG AND NORTH OF I80 AND MAINLY ON THE IA SIDE. THESE
AREAS MAY GET CLIPPED BY NORTHERN PORTION OF STORM COMPLEX LATE
TONIGHT AND TUE...BUT THE THREAT AREA RIGHT NOW LOOKS NOT TO BE
WIDESPREAD ENOUGH TO WARRANT A WATCH. EVEN IN THE SOUTH WITH
HIGHER FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE...SOME LOCALIZED URBAN AND SMALL STREAM
FLOODING LIKELY IF THE 1-3 INCHES PLUS VERIFY FROM 06Z-18Z TUE.
AS FOR THE SVR THREAT LATE TONIGHT...IT MAY BE MARGINAL BY THE TIME
IT ARRIVES INTO THE LOCAL CWA WITH ISOLATED 50-60 MPH WIND MIX DOWNS
AND HAIL UNDER AN INCH. WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR WAKE LOW WINDS AGAIN
INTO TUE MORNING WHICH MAY CREATE MORE WIDESPREAD TROUBLE THAN
THUNDERSTORM WINDS/IN THE MORNING ANYWAY/.

ON TUE...THE ACTIVITY TONIGHT AND TOMORROW MORNING WILL BE A BIG
PLAYER ON WHERE AN TO WHAT EXTENT MORE CONVECTION DEVELOPS. THE
ENTIRE CWA UNDER A SLIGHT RISK...BUT MUCH WILL DEPEND ON HOW THE
MORNING ACTIVITY DECAYS FOR HEATING AND DESTABILIZATION TAKES
PLACE AND WHERE RESULTANT OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES...COLD POOLS AND EVEN
LARGER SCALE FRONTS SUCH AS LAKE ENHANCED BOUNDARIES LAY OUT. WITH
IMPINGING DEEP SOUTHWEST FLOW AND APPROACHING SHORT WAVE...THE NEW
ECMWF BLOWS AN MCS RIGHT OVER THE NORTH HALF OF THE CWA TUE
AFTERNOON...WHILE MANY OTHER MODELS INITIATE ALONG AND SOUTH OR EAST
OF THE LOCAL FCST AREA ON OLD MCS REMNANTS. WILL KEEP CWA-WIDE
CHC POPS FOR THE AFTERNOON AFTER THE HIGH POPS IN THE MORNING END AT
18Z. IF A FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS EVENTUALLY POSTED...IT MAY NEED TO
BE EXTENDED INTO WED MORNING.  SFC TEMPS WILL VARY WIDELY FROM THE
FAR NORTHERN PORTIONS POSSIBLY NOT GETTING OUT OF THE UPPER 60S
DUE TO LAKE FRONT AND CLOUD COVER...AND THE SOUTH POSSIBLY GETTING UP
INTO THE 80S.     ..12..

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT MONDAY...
SEVERAL SEVERE WEATHER EVENTS A THREAT THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK.
MCS FROM TONIGHT AND TUESDAY SHOULD MOVE OFF TO THE SOUTH AND EAST
OF THE CWA TUESDAY NIGHT. AS MAJOR TROUGH IN THE WESTERN UNITED
STATES BEGINS TO MOVE INTO THE PLAINS...WARM FRONT WILL BE LIFTING
INTO THE CWA ON WEDNESDAY. WITH A 40 KNOT LOW LEVEL JET MOST OF THE
DAY IMPINGING ON THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY...THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD
CONTINUE TO FIRE ACROSS THE CWA. LATER IN THE AFTERNOON AND
WEDNESDAY EVENING...DEEP LAYER SHEAR DEVELOPS INCREASING THREAT OF
SEVERE WEATHER INCLUDING TORNADOES. CAPES ARE PROGGED TO BE GREATER
THAN 2500 J/KG WITH HELICITY MORE THAN 300 M2/S2. SEE HYDROLOGY
SECTION FOR HEAVY RAIN DISCUSSION.

FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...DEEPENING STORM SYSTEM TRACKS ALONG THE
DAKOTAS AND MINNESOTA BORDER. EVEN STRONGER LOW LEVEL JET SHOULD
PUSH WARM FRONT WELL TO THE NORTH OF THE DVN CWA ON THURSDAY. THIS
LEAVES OUR REGION CAPPED AS 700 MB TEMPERATURES RISE TO 15C. HAVE
LOWERED POPS TO ONLY SLIGHT CHANCE OF STORMS. MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES
SHOULD MAKE IT TO AROUND 90 ESPECIALLY SOUTH OF I-80 WHICH WOULD BE
THE WARMEST OF THE YEAR SO FAR. SUPERCELLS THAT DEVELOP ALONG COLD
FRONT ON THURSDAY WELL TO OUR WEST SHOULD EVENTUALLY CONGEAL INTO A
SQUALL LINE THURSDAY NIGHT. THIS LINE SHOULD RACE INTO THE DVN CWA
PROBABLY AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH DAMAGING WIND (JUNE IS CLIMATOLOGICALLY
THE PEAK MONTH FOR THIS TYPE OF SEVERE). DEPENDING ON THE TIMING OF
THE COLD FRONT SEVERE WEATHER SHOULD ERUPT AGAIN ON FRIDAY.

SOUTHWEST TO WEST FLOW ALOFT LINGERS OVER THE REGION THIS WEEKEND
AND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL SET UP OVER THE
REGION WITH NEAR DAILY CHANCES OF STORMS.

..HAASE..

&&

.AVIATION...
MAINLY VFR CIGS THROUGH EARLY EVENING...EXCEPT AT THE CID TERMINAL
WHERE ELEVATED SHOWERS AND SOME EMBEDDED STORMS CREATE OCCASIONAL
BOUTS OF MVFR CIGS. THE MLI TERMINAL MAY APPROACH MVFR CIGS FROM 21Z
THROUGH 00Z WITH PASSING SHOWERS AND STORMS JUST TO THE NORTH.
WIDESPREAD MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS TO IMPACT ALL TERMINALS AFTER 06Z
WITH AN APPROACHING MCS FROM THE WEST...WITH THE BRL AND MLI TAF
SITES HAVING THE MOST ADVERSE CONDITIONS AND TURBULENCE FROM 08Z TO
15Z.     ..12..

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
MODELS CONTINUE TO SUGGEST CONDITIONS WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR AN MCS
TO MOVE THROUGH EAST CENTRAL AND SRN IA/WCNTRL IL AND NE MO TONIGHT.
IF THIS OCCURS THEN LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS OF 1 TO 3 INCHES AND
LOCALLY HIGHER WILL BE POSSIBLE OVER AREAS SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 80.
THIS AREA HAS MISSED OUT ON THE LAST COUPLE HEAVY RAIN EVENTS SO THE
SOIL SHOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE A AROUND OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN BEFORE
SIGNIFICANT RUN-OFF OCCURS. BUT STILL EXPECT SIGNIFICANT RISES ON
THE SKUNK...ENGLISH...FOX AND LA MOINE RIVERS BY LATE TUESDAY.
ADDITIONAL STORM DEVELOPMENT OVER PORTIONS OF THE AREA ON TUESDAY
AFTERNOON COULD AGGRAVATE ONGOING FLOODING ON THE IOWA...WAPSI AND
CEDAR RIVERS. PORTIONS OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER FROM GLADSTONE ON
SOUTHWARD MAY APPROACH OR EXCEED THE FLOOD STAGE BY MIDWEEK IF
EXPECTED RAINFALL VERIFIES.    ..12..

POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY RAIN EVENT ON WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT
ESPECIALLY THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE OUR CWA. THIS IS ALSO THE AREA
WITH THE LOWEST FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE NUMBERS AND MOST VULNERABLE TO
FLASH FLOODING. WARM FRONT WILL BE LIFTING INTO THE CWA WITH
POTENTIAL FOR TRAINING WHICH WOULD ENHANCE FLASH FLOOD THREAT.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT SHOULD SEE MCS DEVELOPMENT WITH THREAT OF MORE
WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAIN. BY THURSDAY WARM FRONT WILL BE NORTH OF THE
CWA TAKING THE THUNDESTORMS WITH IT. STRONG STORM MOTION WINDS
THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY SHOULD ALLOW FOR RAPID SPEED OF STORMS
WHICH WILL REDUCE THE RISK OF WIDESPREAD FLASH FLOODING.
