AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE QUAD CITIES IA IL
330 AM CDT MON AUG 8 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
ARCING LINE OF CONVECTION WITH GUSTY WINDS MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL
IA ATTM IN ADVANCE OF MESOSCALE CONVECTIVELY ENHANCED VORT MAX
PASSING NEAR KSUX. THIS IS ONE OF SEVERAL CLUSTERS OR LINE
SEGMENTS OF CONVECTION ONGOING EARLY THIS AM OVER PORTIONS OF THE
PLAINS AND MIDWEST IN ACTIVE W/NW FLOW ALOFT BETWEEN HEAT DOME
OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND SOUTHWEST AND ANOMALOUSLY DEEP SHORTWAVE
SHIFTING ACROSS SASKATCHEWAN.   ..05..

&&

.SHORT TERM...TODAY AND TONIGHT...
PCPN CHCS AND TEMPS MAIN FCST CHALLENGES. ARCING LINE OF CONVECTION
OVER CENTRAL IA EXPECTED TO PUSH ACROSS AREA EARLY THIS AM
MAINLY SOUTH OF HWY 30 WITH SUPPORT FROM LATEST 3 HR PRESSURE
FALLS... WHICH ALSO SUPPORT CONTINUED GENERATION OF CELLS ON SOUTHERN
FLANK AS SOME INTERACTION SUGGESTED WITH KS/MO CONVECTION. STRONG
GUSTY WINDS OF 30-40 KTS HAVE BEEN OBSERVED WITHIN PORTIONS OF THIS
LINE... AND WILL BE MAIN THREAT EARLY THIS AM. ADDITIONAL
DEVELOPMENT OF SHRA/TSRA IS EXPECTED IN WAKE OF THIS INITIAL LINE
AS MCV CURRENTLY OVER KSUX PASSES TO OUR NORTH THROUGH THE AFTN.
DEGREE OF HEATING/DESTABILIZATION UNCERTAIN PER SATL/RADAR TRENDS
WHICH LEADS TO QUESTIONS WITH SVR POTENTIAL... BUT IF ENOUGH HEATING
THEN COULD SEE ISOLD SVR TSRA (MAINLY SOUTHERN CWA) WITH MARGINAL
WINDS AROUND 60 MPH BEING MAIN THREAT GIVEN SUFFICIENT SHEAR WITH
80-90 KT JET STREAK OVERHEAD. COULD SEE SOME POCKETS OF
MOD/LOCALLY HVY RAIN 0.5-1.0+ INCH PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN CWA WITH
ANY REPETITIVE CONVECTION... WHICH WOULD BE WELCOMED AND MUCH NEEDED.
MCV AND ATTENDANT FORCING SHOULD BE EAST OF CWA BY EVE. PCPN CHCS
TNGT A BIT MURKY WITH CWA SPLIT BETWEEN BETTER FORCING AREAS FROM
UPPER MIDWEST INTO GREAT LAKES ATTENDANT TO DEEP CANADIAN
SHORTWAVE... AND FROM PORTIONS OF CENTRAL PLAINS THROUGH
MID/LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WITH WEAKER SHORTWAVE ENERGY RIPPLING
DOWN IN W/NW FLOW ALOFT. SOME INDICATIONS FROM ECMWF AND UKMET THAT
SOUTHERN COUNTIES COULD BE BRUSHED BY SOME PCPN ON NORTH SIDE
OF MORE ORGANIZED CONVECTION SHIFTING ACROSS KS/MO. MODELS ALSO SHOW
SOME WEAK ELEVATED THETA-E ADVECTION... AND SO FOR NOW HAVE BROAD
BRUSHED LOW POPS AND LET LATER SHIFTS REFINE AS CONVECTIVE EVOLUTION
PLAYS OUT... AS MODELS HAVE STRUGGLED MIGHTILY OF LATE.
AS FOR TEMPS... CHALLENGE AS CLOUDS/PCPN TO IMPACT HIGHS TDY AND
OPTED TOWARD GUIDANCE BLEND. AREAS WHERE CLOUDS/PCPN HANG ON HIGHS
LIKELY TO BE IN THE 70S... WHILE AREAS THAT MANAGE TO BREAK INTO SOME
SUNSHINE FOR A TIME WILL POP INTO THE 80S. LOWS TNGT STAYED NEAR COOL
SIDE WITH SUGGESTIONS OF GOOD RADIATIONAL COOLING POTENTIAL WITH
LIGHT WINDS AND MAINLY CLEAR SKIES FOR A TIME.    ..05..

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH NEXT SUNDAY...
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...WILL CONTINUE TO WALK THE LLVL FRONTAL
PASSAGE THROUGH THE DVN CWA TUE MORNING IN INCREASING NORTHWESTERLY
CYCLONIC STEERING FLOW OVER THE UPPER MS RVR VALLEY. WILL KEEP AT
LEAST LOW CHC POPS FOR SCTRD SHOWERS IN THE VCNTY OF THIS
FEATURE/BOTH ALONG AND EVEN SOMEWHAT POST-FRONTAL/ THROUGH AT LEAST
EARLY TUE AFTERNOON. CYCLONIC FLOW AND ENHANCED MIXING TO MAKE FOR A
RATHER BREEZY DAY WITH NORTHWEST WINDS OF 15-20+ MPH. EVEN IN LLVL
CAA REGIME...DECENT MIXING WILL PROBABLY BOOST TEMPS ACRS MOST OF THE
DVN CWA INTO THE LOWER TO MID 80S FOR HIGHS. A CHANCE FOR AREAS IN
THE FAR NORTHWESTERN AND NORTHERN CWA TO REMAIN IN THE UPPER 70S.
DPTS WILL LOOK TO CRASH AS DAY PROGRESSES...POSSIBLY DRY DOWN-MIXED
INTO THE LOWER 60S OR EVEN THE 50S BY LATE TUE AFTERNOON. SEASONABLY
STRONG 1015+ MB SFC RIDGE PROGGED BY MOST MEDIUM RANGE MODELS TO DUMP
DOWN THE PLAINS TUE NIGHT INTO WED. THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR NNW
SFC WINDS TO DECOUPLE UNDER INCREASING INVERSION BY EARLY WED
MORNING. THIS COMBINED WITH THE LOWERED DPTS WOULD SUPPORT THE IDEA
THAT MUCH OF THE DVN CWA WOULD HAVE LOW TEMPS IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S
EXCEPT FOR THE SOUTH WHICH MAY BE HELD UP IN THE 60S. THEN THIS
INCOMING COOL BUBBLE OF HIGH PRESSURE WOULD SET THE STAGE FOR A
PLEASANT WED WITH HIGHS IN THE UPPER 70S TO NEAR 80. A FEW LOCATIONS
MAY BE HELD MORE IN THE MID 70S ALONG AND NORTH OF THE HWY 30
CORRIDOR. HIGH PRESSURE CENTER EFFECT OF A LIGHT/CALM WIND REGIME AND
CONTINUED LOWERING OF SFC DPTS AS MUCH AS CROP EVAPO-TRANSPIRATION
WILL ALLOW...SUPPORTS ANOTHER COOL NIGHT IN THE 50S INTO THU MORNING.
SOME VALLEY FOG POSSIBLE WED NIGHT.

THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...00Z MEDIUM RANGE MODEL RUNS AND LATEST
ENSEMBLES SUGGEST THAT WHILE FLATTENED STEERING FLOW/BROAD SCALE
WESTERLIES RELOAD ACRS THE WEST HALF OF THE CONUS...ONGOING RIDGING
TO KEEP THE CWA DRY UNTIL AT LEAST LATER THU NIGHT. THE ENTIRE CWA
MAY BE HELD IN THE 70S FOR HIGHS ON THU. PHASING AND DIGGING OF
AN INLAND STRIVING NW PACIFIC WAVE IN THIS FLOW...AS WELL AS LLVL
MOISTURE RETURN SUGGESTS THE PLAINS AND MO RVR VALLEY TO BECOME MCS
SPAWNING GROUNDS/BOTH SFC BASED AND ELEVATED/ BY THU NIGHT. A LOW
CHANCE FOR SOME OF THIS ACTIVITY TO BLEED FAR ENOUGH EASTWARD TO
MAKE IT INTO THE LOCAL CWA LATE THU NIGHT. BUT THEN THE LATEST MODEL
RUNS SUGGEST THAT THE PHASING PROCESS TO CONTINUE TO WORK EASTWARD
AND BRING BETTER RAIN CHANCES WITH IT TO THE LOCAL AREA BY FRI AND
FRI NIGHT. WILL GO WITH MODERATE TO HIGH CHC POPS FOR THE SECOND
HALF OF THIS LATE WEEK PERIOD.

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...THE DIGGING WAVE COMPLEX WILL THEN LOOK TO
CONTINUE ACRS THE SOUTHWESTERN GRT LKS ON SAT...TAKING THE PRECIP
EASTWARD WITH IT AND OUT OF THE DVN CWA BY SAT AFTERNOON. ANY
FURTHER PHASING AND RESULTANT SYSTEM SLOW DOWN COULD LINGER PRECIP
WELL INTO SAT EVENING...BUT FOR NOW WILL GO DRY BY LATE SAT. CLOUDS
AND RAIN COULD KEEP AMBIENT TEMPS WELL DOWN IN THE 70S BOTH FRI AND
SAT...DEPENDING ON AREAL EXTENT/COVERAGE. BUT AGAIN WILL BANK ON SOME
SAT AFTERNOON CLEARING FOR TEMP RECOVERY INTO HE MID AND UPPER 70S.
NORTHWEST FLOW AND RE-ENFORCING HIGH PRESSURE LOOKS ON TAP FOR NEXT
SUNDAY. BUT FULL SCALE INSOLATION WOULD HELP SFC TEMPS MODERATE BACK
TO NEAR 80.    ..12..

&&

.AVIATION...
ARCING LINE OF TSRA MOVING THROUGH CENTRAL IA TO CONTINUE MOVING E/SE
AND EXPECTED TO PASS MAINLY ALONG/SOUTH OF HWY 30 THIS AM IMPACTING
KCID/KMLI/KBRL TERMINALS. POTENTIAL FOR GUSTS OF 25 TO 35 KTS WITHIN
PORTIONS OF LINE WITH BRIEF MVFR CIGS/VSBY. ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT
OF SHRA/TSRA EXPECTED IN WAKE OF THIS LINE ESPECIALLY ALONG/S OF I-80
THROUGH AFTN AS AN UPPER AIR DISTURBANCE PASSES ACROSS SOUTHERN WI.
GUSTY WINDS AND BRIEF PERIODS OF MVFR CIGS/VSBY POSSIBLE WITH THE
TSRA. WEAK/LIMITED FORCING TNGT SUPPORTS PCPN CHCS TOO SMALL FOR INCLUSION
IN TERMINALS. KBRL COULD BE BRUSHED BY RAIN LATER THIS EVE INTO OVRNGT
ON NORTH SIDE OF ORGANIZED TSRA LIKELY PASSING THROUGH KS/MO. PATCHY
FOG ALSO POSSIBLE LATE TNGT AT TERMINALS WITH SHALLOW STEEP LOW LEVEL
INVERSION. WINDS TO REMAIN GENERALLY LIGHT AND VARIABLE OUTSIDE OF
ANY TSRA.   ..05..
