AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
612 AM CDT FRI JUL 15 2011

...UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION...

.SHORT TERM /TODAY/...
OVERALL FORECAST FOR TODAY IS NOT SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT FROM
YESTERDAY WITH A STEADY WARMING TREND CONTINUING AND THUNDER CHANCES
ACROSS OUR NORTHWEST. ANOTHER 500 MB SHORTWAVE IS PROGRESSING FROM
NORTHWESTERN KS INTO NEBR ATTM WITH A SURFACE LOW DEVELOPING ACROSS
WEST CENTRAL SDAK. THIS HAS RESULTED IN SHOWERS AND STORMS ACROSS
CENTRAL AND WESTERN NEBR...BUT THESE ARE MOVING IN A MORE NORTHERLY
DIRECTION TODAY AS THE 500 MB RIDGE BUILDS IN ACROSS OUR REGION. AS
THE SHORTWAVE IMPINGES ON THE RIDGE AND MOVES NORTHEASTWARD TODAY
THE AREA OF FOCUS FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT SHOULD SHIFT INTO
NORTHWESTERN IOWA BY LATE IN THE DAY...PROMPTING AN INCREASE TO
30-40 POPS IN THAT AREA THIS AFTERNOON. THERE IS SOME UNCERTAINTY AS
FAR AS HOW FAR THE SHORTWAVE EFFECTS CAN PUSH INTO THE RIDGE...AND
CAPPING MAY KEEP THE STORMS A BIT FURTHER NORTHWEST SO HAVE NOT GONE
HIGHER THAN 40 EVEN UP BY ESTHERVILLE. OTHER THAN POPS VERY LITTLE
CHANGE MADE TO FORECAST FOR TODAY...BUT DID TWEAK TEMPS UP JUST A
TOUCH IN THE SOUTHWEST WHERE WAA SHOULD ALLOW FOR A FEW LOWER 90S
UNLESS SIGNIFICANT BLOWOFF FROM NEBR CONVECTION MANAGES TO CLOUD
THOSE AREAS OVER.

.LONG TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY/...
INITIAL CONCERN IS WITH POSSIBLE CONVECTION TONIGHT AS SHORTWAVE
TRAVELS FROM NW KANSAS TODAY INTO SOUTHERN MN BY TONIGHT.  MODELS
ARE CONSISTENT WITH CONVECTION DEVELOPING LATE THIS AFTERNOON IN
SOUTHERN MN AND FAR NORTHERN IA.  00Z SPC-WRF WANTS TO TRACK THIS
PCPN DUE SOUTH IN LINE WITH THE CORFIDI VECTORS AND THROUGH CENTRAL
IA.  THE 06Z NAM IS COMING MORE IN LINE WITH THIS SCENARIO AS WELL.
HAVE GONE WITH LIKELY POPS NEAR THE BORDER AND INCREASED POPS INTO
CENTRAL IA FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF THIS CONVECTION DROPPING SOUTH
ALONG INSTABILITY AXIS GRADIENT AND LOW LEVEL JET AXIS.  MAY SEE
SOME WIND GUSTS WITH THESE STORMS ALONG WITH LOCALLY HEAVY
RAINFALL.

THEREAFTER...FORECAST ESSENTIALLY IS FOCUSED ON THE BUILDING HEAT AS
UPPER RIDGE INTENSIFIES ACROSS THE CENTRAL US.  THERMAL RIDGING WILL
BUILD ACRS THE PLAINS AND INTO IA BY SUNDAY AND CONTINUE NEARLY
UNCHANGED THROUGH THE WEEK.  IT APPEARS HIGHS SHOULD REACH INTO THE
90S FOR MUCH OF THE WORK WEEK FOR THE ENTIRE CWA AS THE UPPER RIDGE
MAINTAINS ITS LOCATIONS OVER THE HEARTLAND. GIVEN THE PEAK
EVAPOTRANSPIRATION SETTING IN FOR THE CROPS AS CORN BEGINS TO TASSEL
AND POLLINATE...MUCH MOISTURE WILL BE ADDED TO THE AIR AS WELL.
WILL SEE DEWPOINTS LIKELY INTO THE LOWER 80S DURING THE
WEEK...ESPECIALLY IN THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS. NOT MUCH
RELIEF DURING THE OVERNIGHT WITH LOWS WELL INTO THE 70S WITH A FEW
80S POSSIBLE...MAINLY IN THE URBAN LOCATIONS.  HAVE CONTINUE THE
EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH FOR THE ENTIRE AREA AND EXTENDED THE TIME
THROUGH WEDNESDAY.  IT IS POSSIBLE THAT ANY HEADLINES MAY CONTINUE
THROUGH THE ENTIRE WORK WEEK AS GUIDANCE SUGGEST ONLY A GRADUAL
SHIFT TO THE EAST WITH THE RIDGE AS WESTERN TROF COMES ASHORE.

&&

.AVIATION...15/12Z
LOW STRATUS AND BR ARE PRODUCING MVFR CONDITIONS AT KFOD AND
KMCW...WHICH SHOULD END BY 13Z OR 14Z AS CIGS RISE AND THE BR
DISSIPATES. THEREAFTER...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED TODAY UNTIL
SHRA/TSRA MOVE IN LATER. WEATHER SYSTEM CURRENTLY PRODUCING RAIN
ACROSS CENTRAL NEBR WILL MOVE INTO WRN/NWRN IA BY THIS AFTN...AND
EXPECT SHRA/TSRA WILL SPREAD ACROSS NRN IA THIS EVE THROUGH TONIGHT.
DETAILS OF TIMING/LOCATION REMAIN UNCERTAIN SO HAVE GONE WITH JUST
VCTS FOR NOW...BUT APPEARS HIGHEST POPS WILL BE AT KFOD AND KMCW AND
COULD AFFECT KALO/KDSM AS WELL. EVEN ASIDE FROM PRECIP MORE LOW
CIGS/BR ARE PROBABLE OVNGHT...AND HAVE INTRODUCED THEM AFTER 03Z IN
THE TAFS.
