AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
641 PM CDT SAT AUG 6 2011

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT/...
SHORT WAVE TROUGH SEEN ON WATER VAPOR IMAGERY ALONG THE WY/SD BORDER
IS EXPECTED TO ORGANIZE CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT THIS EVENING...
HOWEVER SURFACE FEATURES ARE NOT WELL DEFINED...SO CONFIDENCE IN
CONVECTIVE EVOLUTION IS NOT HIGH. BROAD AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS OVER
IOWA AND MINNESOTA...WITH A WIND SHIFT TO WESTERLY FLOW OVER NW IOWA
INITIATED BY EARLIER CONVECTION. A FEW STORMS COULD DEVELOP OVER N
CENTRAL IOWA ALONG THIS WIND SHIFT LINE...BUT THEY ARE NOT EXPECTED
TO BE SEVERE. OTHER STORMS ARE POSSIBLE OVER EASTERN NEBRASKA INTO
SE SOUTH DAKOTA AS SHORT WAVE CATCHES UP TO INSTABILITY AXIS...PER
SWOMCD. LATEST RUC MODEL AND 12Z WRF RUNS SHOW A NICE CLEAN LINE OF
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS PROGRESSING EAST ACROSS IOWA TONIGHT...SO
HAVE GONE WITH FAIRLY HIGH POPS. THINGS MAY NOT BE THAT CLEAN
HOWEVER...WITH SOME STORMS FAVORING NORTH IOWA AND OTHER POTENTIALLY
HOLDING BACK IN THE SW. SEVERE THREAT IS LIKELY TO BE CONFINED TO
DAMAGING WINDS WITH MODERATE DEEP SHEAR. STORMS SHOULD REMAIN
PROGRESSIVE AND CROPS CAN SOAK UP SHORT DURATION HEAVIER RAINS. MAY
GET SOME FOG IN SOUTHEASTERN SECTIONS NEAR OTTUMWA BEFORE STORM
CHANCES ARRIVE...AND IT WILL BE ANOTHER WARM NIGHT IN THOSE
LOCATIONS. SOMEWHAT COOLER NORTHWEST BEHIND THE FRONT.

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
MAIN TOPICS ARE THE TIMING AND PLACEMENT OF PRECIP FOR THE BEGINNING
OF THE PERIOD...AS WELL AS THE ANTICIPATION OF DRIER AND COOLER
CONDITIONS MIDWEEK.

SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY MORNING...
AT THE START OF THE PERIOD...COULD SEE SOME LINGERING SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE EAST/NORTHEASTERN CWA. SREF TRENDS SHOW
INCREASING PROBABILITY OF PRECIP...SO HAVE INCLUDED SLIGHT POPS
THROUGH THE LATE MORNING HOURS. THEN EXPECT CLEARING/DRYING TREND
THROUGHOUT SUNDAY AFTERNOON DUE TO THE SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE
DEPARTING SHORTWAVE AND COLD AIR ADVECTION. MEANWHILE...ZONAL FLOW
WITH EMBEDDED WEAK SHORTWAVES WILL RESULT IN UPSLOPE CONVECTION
ACROSS THE WESTERN NEBRASKA EARLY SUNDAY EVENING...AND THIS
THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX SHOULD PROPAGATE EAST SOUTHEAST THROUGHOUT THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS. LOW LEVEL THETA_E ADVECTION WILL BE MAXIMIZED OVER
THE MISSOURI RIVER VALLEY...SO HAVE HIGHEST POPS OVER THE
SOUTHWESTERN CWA SUNDAY NIGHT.

MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...
A FAIRLY IMPRESSIVE SHORTWAVE CURRENTLY LOCATED OVER BRITISH
COLUMBIA WILL MOVE EASTWARD ALONG THE US/CANADA BORDER...AND BE
LOCATED OVER NORTHERN MINNESOTA BY MONDAY EVENING. THE ASSOCIATED
SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE NORTH OF THE GREAT LAKES...AND A TRAILING COLD
FRONT WILL SWING THROUGH THE UPPER MIDWEST BRINGING ANOTHER CHANCE
FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...WITH BEST CHANCES FOR CENTRAL IOWA
ON MONDAY NIGHT. A FEW STORMS COULD BE SEVERE...WITH DEEP LAYER
SHEAR AROUND 25 KTS...AND MLCAPES NEAR 1000 J/KG DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS. AT THE MOMENT...THE MAIN THREAT WOULD APPEAR TO BE
DAMAGING WIND...AND TO A LESSER DEGREE LARGE HAIL.
AS THIS WAVE PUSHES EASTWARD...NORTHWEST FLOW WILL DEVELOP FOR THE
MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE WILL SETTLE IN AND BRING
COOLER...DRIER AIR INTO THE REGION. EXPECTING ANY SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORM TO REMAIN TO THE SOUTH AND WEST OF THE CWA THROUGH
THURSDAY. HOWEVER...ANOTHER WAVE CROSSES THE NORTHERN ROCKIES TOWARD
THE END OF THE PERIOD...SO HAVE SLIGHT CHANCES FOR THURSDAY NIGHT
THROUGH FRIDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...07/00Z
CONVECTIVE TRENDS AND THEN FOG POTENTIAL WILL BE THE PRIMARY
CONCERNS THIS EVENING.  SCATTERED STORMS HAVE DEVELOPED ACROSS ERN
NE AND SHOULD ADVANCE INTO IA LATER TONIGHT.  TIMING AND POTENTIAL
AT ANY PARTICULAR TAF SITE IS STILL IN QUESTION HOWEVER SO NOTHING
BEYOND CB WORDING FOR THE TIME BEING.  WILL HIT HARDER AS TREND
BECOME MORE CLEAR.  FLOW IS FAIRLY WEAK SO THERE IS SOME POTENTIAL
FOR MVFR FOG NEAR FROPA EARLY SUN MORNING WITH PLENTY OF LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE CONTINUING TO POOL ALONG AND AHEAD OF BOUNDARY.  POTENTIAL
IS CERTAINLY THERE TO GO LOWER...BUT CONFIDENCE NOT THERE YET.  NO
PRECIP EXPECTED SUN...BUT HIGH MVFR OR LOW VFR CU MAY FORM DURING
THE DAY.

&&

.DMX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...NONE.
