AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
650 PM CDT MON JUN 20 2011

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT/...
CURRENTLY GEARING UP FOR RATHER ACTIVE NIGHT ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA. STRONG LATE SPRING STORM TAKING AIM AT UPPER MIDWEST TONIGHT
WITH LIKELIHOOD OF ALL MODES OF SEVERE WEATHER OVER THE AREA THROUGH
THE EVENING AND LATE NIGHT HOURS. WARM FRONT LOOKS TO BE ENTERING
FAR SOUTHERN IA LATE THIS AFTERNOON WITH SIGNIFICANT DRY PUNCH
HEADING INTO CENTRAL KANSAS AND NEBRASKA LATE THIS AFTERNOON.  BULK
SHEAR AND INSTABILITY SUPPORT SUPERCELLS WITH POTENTIAL TORS INTO
THE EVENING AND LIKELY TO SEE STORMS CONGEAL INTO A BOWING MCS WITH
EMBEDDED HP SUPERCELLS DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. CURRENT SOUNDINGS
SUGGEST INITIATION AFT 22-23Z WEST WITH RAPID DEVELOPMENT INTO THE
EVENING. SECONDARY TROUGH OVER NORTHERN IA MAY BE ANOTHER AREA TO
WATCH WITH CONVERGENCE ALREADY TAKING PLACE THERE.  CAPE IN THE
3000-4000 J/KG RANGE BY LATE AFTERNOON AS UPPER LEVEL WAVE BEGINS TO
INTERACT WITH THE REGION BETWEEN 02-08Z TNT. EARLIER H300 ANALYSIS
SHOWED STRONG DIFFLUENCE ALOFT WITH NEG TILTED WAVE WORKING
NORTHEAST TOWARD THE STATE. THOUGH FORWARD PROPAGATING STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TONIGHT...HIGH PWATS AND LOW FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE FROM LAST
NIGHTS RAINFALL WILL ALSO MEAN POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING WITH
UNDER .75 INCHES PER HOUR IN SOME CASES.  LIKELY WILL SEE HEAVY
DOWNPOURS AND FAST RATE RAINFALL IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME
DESPITE QUICK MOVING STORMS. TONIGHTS STORMS COULD RESULT IN HIGH
END WIND EVENT IF THE STORMS ORGANIZE INTO BOW ECHO STRUCTURE LATER
IN THE EVENING HOURS. LOWS HAVE BEEN LOWERED TO NEAR CONVECTIVE
DOWNBURST TEMPERATURES. WINDS WILL BE SOUTHEAST TO EAST FOR MUCH OF
THE NIGHT BUT SHIFT TO THE SOUTH TOWARD MORNING AS WARM FRONT MOVES
INTO CENTRAL AND NORTHERN IOWA TOMORROW.

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
AFTER AN ACTIVE NIGHT...MAJORITY OF THE STORMS WILL BE NORTHEAST AT
THE START OF THE PERIOD. THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR REDEVELOPMENT
TUESDAY AFTERNOON INTO LATE EVENING. MUCH COOLER TEMPS WILL FOLLOW
ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY...WITH A GRADUAL WARM UP EXPECTED THROUGH
EARLY NEXT WEEK.

TUESDAY...VERTICALLY STACKED SYNOPTIC SYSTEM WILL BE LOCATED OVER
THE MISSOURI RIVER VALLEY BY 12Z...WITH 20.12 GFS PLACING THE
SURFACE LOW NEAR THE NE/SD/IA BORDER...ECMWF SLIGHTLY SOUTH...AND
THE NAM FURTHER SOUTH NEAR THE MO/NE/IA BORDER. RESIDUAL CLOUD COVER
IS EXPECTED ACROSS MOST OF IOWA...BUT BOUNDARY LAYER SHOULD QUICKLY
DESTABILIZE IF CLOUDS ARE ABLE TO BREAK UP THROUGH THE AFTERNOON.
MEANWHILE THE SURFACE LOW WILL GRADUALLY SHIFT NORTHEASTWARD IN
RESPONSE TO THE SLOWED PROGRESS OF THE CLOSED UPPER LEVEL LOW...AND
BY 00Z WILL BE LOCATED IN NORTHWEST/NORTHCENTRAL IOWA. WITH THE WARM
SECTOR ACROSS EASTERN IOWA...AND IT IS THIS REGION THAT WILL BE MOST
FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE WEATHER...IN PARTICULAR NORTHEAST IOWA BETWEEN
I35 AND I80. DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF 30-40KTS WITH MLCAPES OF +1500J/KG
WILL SUPPORT DISCRETE SUPERCELLS...WITH LARGE HAIL AS THE PRIMARY
THREAT...AND TOO A LESSER DEGREE SEVERE WIND. TORNADOES ARE ALSO A
POSSIBILITY AS SREF 20.09 BUFKIT SOUNDINGS AT WATERLOO SHOW 0-1KM
HELICITY GENERALLY IN THE 100-150 M2/S2 RANGE...AND LCL HEIGHTS
AROUND 2000FT.  LOOKS LIKE THE WINDOW FOR SEVERE WEATHER WOULD BE
DURING PEAK HEATING AND DEPEND HEAVILY ON THE BOUNDARY LAYERS
ABILITY TO RECOVER. AT THE MOMENT...THE MOST LIKELY TIME PERIOD
WOULD BE CENTERED AROUND THE EARLY AFTERNOON THROUGH LATE EVENING.

WEDNESDAY THOUGH THURSDAY...MUCH COOLER TEMPS ARE EXPECTED DURING
THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK AS THE CLOSED LOW CONTINUES TO WOBBLE OVER
THE UPPER MIDWEST. H850 TEMPS WILL BE AT OR SLIGHTLY BELOW 10C...AND
FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW LOW STATUS WITH PERIODS OF LIGHT RAIN AND
DRIZZLE. WEAK SHORT WAVES WILL ROTATE AROUND THE CLOSED LOW AND
ENHANCE THE PRECIP CHANCES...BUT CONFIDENCE IN THE TIMING OF THESE
IS LOW. NONE THE LESS...HAVE TRIED TO ZONE IN ON THESE WAVES...BUT
ALSO TRENDED THE POPS SO THAT THE BEST CHANCES FOR PRECIP ARE DURING
THE LATE AFTERNOON. MAX TEMPS ON WED AND THURS WILL BE NEAR RECORD
LOW FOR LATE JUNE.

FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...NORTHWEST FLOW DOWNSTREAM OF UPPER LEVEL
RIDGING OVER THE HIGH PLAINS WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP TEMPS ON THE
COOLER SIDE. HOWEVER...BOTH ECMWF AND GFS 20.12 SHOW THETA_E
ADVECTION RETURNING ACROSS THE MISSOURI RIVER VALLEY. LEE SIDE
SHORTWAVES WILL LIKELY LEAD TO THE OVERNIGHT DEVELOPMENT OF
MCSS...SO HAVE INCLUDED SLIGHT POPS TO REFLECT THIS DURING THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS. CURRENT GUIDANCE KEEPS THE BULK OF THE PRECIP OVER
EASTERN NE/KS ALONG THE THETA_E GRADIENT.

&&

.HYDROLOGY/...
LAST NIGHTS HEAVY RAINFALL HAS LEAD TO EXTREMELY SATURATED SOIL
CONDITIONS ACROSS SOUTHERN IOWA...WITH MOST STREAMS RUNNING NEAR OR
ABOVE BANK FULL. ANOTHER ROUND OF STORMS IS EXPECTED LATE THIS
EVENING THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AS A STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
LIFTS NORTHWARD ALONG THE MISSOURI RIVER VALLEY. STORMS ARE EXPECTED
TO DEVELOP OVER EASTERN NE/KS THIS AFTERNOON AND MOVE ACROSS IOWA.
THE STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF PRODUCING RAINFALL RATES OF 2 TO 3
INCHES PER HOUR. GIVEN THE RAINFALL POTENTIAL AND SOIL
CONDITIONS...A FLASH FLOOD WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED. RIVER FLOODING MAY
ALSO BE A ISSUE DEPENDING ON WHICH BASINS RECEIVE THE HIGHEST
RAINFALL TOTALS.

&&

.AVIATION...21/00Z
STRONG WRMFNT LIFTING NWD INTO IA AS SC LOW IN NERN KS PUSHES NEWD.
ARC OF TSRA ERN NEBRASKA INTO KS WILL PUSH NEWD INTO THE TAF SITES
AFT 03Z WITH SCT SVR TSRA.  MAIN SVR THREAT WILL LIFT N OF THE TAF
SITES BFR SNRS WITH A BREAK IN THE ACTION AND CONDS BCMG VFR IN THE
MRNG.  INSTABILITY SHWRS/TSRA WILL DVLP TUE AFTN.
