.SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 255 PM CDT FRI MAY 3 2013

MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS ARE PRECIPITATION CHANCES AND POSSIBLE
THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH PERIOD.

LATEST WATER VAPOR SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS UPPER LEVEL LOW CUTTING
OFF OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND INDICATING GOOD FETCH OF MOISTURE
LIFTING NORTHWARD INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST AND GREAT LAKES REGION.
LATEST MOSAIC RADAR SHOWS RAIN ACROSS PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST
MINNESOTA AND WESTERN WISCONSIN INTO EASTERN IOWA AND NORTHERN
ILLINOIS. THIS IS IN RESPONSE TO DECENT MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND
CONVERGENCE IN THE 925-850MB LAYER PER 03.15Z RAP.

THE 03.12Z GFS/NAM ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT IN MOVING UPPER LEVEL CUTOFF
LOW OVER THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND SOUTHEAST UNITED STATES THROUGH
SATURDAY NIGHT. THE DETERMINISTIC MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW A SERIES OF
SHORTWAVE TROUGHS WRAPPING AROUND UPPER LEVEL LOW INTO THE UPPER
MIDWEST. THE 03.12Z GFS/NAM AND 03.15Z RAP INDICATE THE AREA IS ON
THE NOSE OF DECENT MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND CONVERGENCE AT 925-850MB
LAYER TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING. THIS WILL CONTINUE TO SPREAD
RAIN/RAIN SHOWERS INTO THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH SATURDAY. ALONG
WITH THE SURGE OF MOISTURE...THE 03.12Z GFS/NAM ADVECT WARMER AIR
ALOFT INTO THE FORECAST AREA THIS EVENING AND INTO TONIGHT...WITH
925MB TEMPERATURES RISING TO PLUS 5 TO PLUS 13 DEGREES CELSIUS BY

LOW AND PRODUCES PRECIPITATION OVER THE AREA. THE 03.00Z GEFS
INDICATE UPPER LEVEL RIDGING OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST AND GREAT LAKES
REGION AND NO HINT OF A WEAK UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER THE AREA.
