TWO BOW ECHOES CURRENTLY PROJECTED TO AFFECT THE CWA TONIGHT. THE
FIRST ONE IS JUST EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER AND SHOULD BE

ECHO...WHICH CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM CENTRAL IOWA INTO SOUTHEAST
NEBRASKA...IS TIMED TO MOVE INTO THE WESTERN CWA AFTER 06Z. WIND
DAMAGE THREAT WILL BE INCREASING AS THE NIGHT PROGRESSES...WITH
THE WESTERN BOW RACING ALONG AT 60-65 MPH.

.AVIATION...
ISSUED 600 PM CDT SUN JUN 26 2011

LOCATION AND COVERAGE OF CONVECTION TONIGHT THE MAIN FORECAST
CONCERN AND ITS AFFECT ON CIGS/VSBYS LATE TONIGHT. A WARM FRONT
WAS LIFTING SLOWLY NORTH ACRS CENTRAL MO LATE THIS AFTN AND
WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR MORE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP
ACROSS THE AREA LATER THIS EVENING AND CONTINUE INTO THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS. A BAND OF CONVECTION HAS ALREADY DEVELOPED ACRS CENTRAL IOWA
LATE THIS AFTN AND EXPECT THAT TO FILL IN FURTHER TO THE EAST AND
APPROACH PARTS OF WEST CENTRAL IL AFTR 02Z...AFFECTING PRIMARILY
SPI LATER THIS EVENING. ANOTHER COMPLEX OF STORMS IS THEN EXPCTD
TO PUSH SE INTO THE AREA AFTR 06Z AND PRODUCE MVFR CIGS FOR A
BRIEF TIME...WITH CMI THE LAST TO SEE THE ACTIVITY...PROBABLY NOT
IN THEIR AREA UNTIL AFTR 09Z.

MOST OF THE CONVECTION SHOULD PUSH OFF TO OUR EAST DURING THE
MORNING WITH CONFIDENCE ON THE REDEVELOPMENT ALONG THE COLD FRONT
RATHER LOW AT THIS TIME LATE IN THE AFTN. FOR THAT REASON...WL ONLY
INCLUDE A VCTS/CB GROUP FOR LATE AFTN. SFC WINDS WILL BE OUT OF THE
SOUTHEAST AT AROUND 10 KTS TONIGHT...BUT BRIEFLY STRONGER IN ANY
INTENSE STORM THAT MAY PUSH ACRS THE AREA TONIGHT. WINDS WILL VEER
INTO THE SOUTHWEST ON MONDAY AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT WITH SPEEDS
OF 10 TO 15 KTS.

.PREV DISCUSSION...
ISSUED 305 PM CDT SUN JUN 26 2011

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...
COMPLEX MULTI-BOUNDARY SURFACE PATTERN IN PLACE OVER THE PLAINS AND
MIDWEST AS NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORM CLUSTERS MODULATE THE WEAK SYNOPTIC
FEATURES. ONE OF THE MORE RELEVANT BOUNDARIES IS A PSEUDO-WARM FRONT
EXTENDING FROM SOUTHERN IL NORTHWESTWARD INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS.
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPING ALONG THIS FEATURE...WITH
STRONGER STORMS OVER THE SD/NEB AREA WHERE THE UPPER FLOW IS
STRONGER. MCS DEVELOPMENT IS FORECAST TONIGHT OVER THAT AREA WITH
THE COMPLEX RIDING SOUTHEASTWARD ALONG THE SURFACE BOUNDARY INTO THE
WESTERN HALF OF IL LATE TONIGHT. HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE POSSIBLE
WITH THESE STORMS...SO HAVE ISSUED A FLASH FLOOD WATCH FOR AREAS
WHERE FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE IS ALREADY LOW FROM PREVIOUS STORMS IN
THE PAST 24 HOURS. MORE INFORMATION ON THAT IN THE HYDROLOGY SECTION
BELOW. SINCE THE AFFECTS OF TONIGHT/S STORMS ON THE WEATHER MONDAY
IS UNCLEAR IN THE MORNING...WENT WITH A GENERAL HEALTHY CHANCE POP.
BY AFTERNOON...A COLD FRONT WILL BE APPROACHING WHICH SHOULD BRING
ANOTHER UPSWING IN STORM COVERAGE. WITH THIS IN MIND HAVE PUT LIKELY
POPS OVER THE WEST HALF MONDAY AFTERNOON AND THE EASTERN AREAS
MONDAY EVENING. THE LATEST MODEL SOLUTIONS ARE A LITTLE FASTER WITH
THE TIMING OF THE FRONT...WITH IT CLEARING THE FORECAST AREA LATE
MONDAY NIGHT. HAVE THEREFORE MADE TUESDAY DRY AND A LITTLE COOLER.
THIS WILL BE THE START OF A WELCOME STRETCH OF MAINY DRY WEATHER
WHICH SHOULD LAST THROUGH THE WORKWEEK.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...
MODELS HAVE BEEN FAIRLY CONSISTENT WITH THE GENERAL FLOW PATTERN FOR
THE LONG TERM. THIS FEATURES AN UPPER RIDGE OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF
OF THE COUNTRY WITH THE MAIN WESTERLIES ALONG THE NORTHERN
INTERNATIONAL BORDER. THIS WILL BRING MOSTLY DRY CONDITIONS WITH A
WARMING TREND THROUGH THE WORK WEEK. UPPER TROUGH OVER THE WEST
COAST WILL WEAKEN AS IT MOVES NORTHEAST AND TOPS THE RIDGE...
REACHING THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES ON SATURDAY. THIS TIMING WAS ALSO
SEEN ON THE PREVIOUS MODEL RUNS...SO WILL KEEP A SLIGHT CHANCE OF
STORMS GOING FOR SATURDAY. SOME MODEL OUTPUT SUGGESTS THAT THE UPPER
RIDGE MAY SPREAD BACK WESTWARD ON SUNDAY...PLACING IL IN NORTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT. IF THIS OCCURS...THEN THE FRONT MIGHT CONTINUE SOUTHWARD
OUT OF THE AREA SUNDAY. HOWEVER...THE 12Z GFS HOLDS THE RIDGE IN
PLACE A LITTLE LONGER AND TURNS THE SURFACE FRONT STATIONARY OVER
THE AREA ON SUNDAY. SINCE LONG RANGE MODELS TYPICALLY HAVE TROUBLE
RESOLVING SYNOPTIC PATTERN CHANGES THAT FAR IN ADVANCE... WILL KEEP
20 POPS IN FOR SUNDAY AND REEVALUATE AFTER ANOTHER COUPLE OF MODEL
RUNS.
