AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
1232 PM CDT TUE MAY 28 2013

.SHORT TERM.../TODAY /...
ISSUED AT 349 AM CDT TUE MAY 28 2013

ONGOING PRECIPITATION ACROSS CENTRAL IOWA WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH
EASTWARD WITH SHORTWAVE...AND EXPECT ONGOING LINGERING SCATTERED
THUNDERSTORMS OR SHOWERS BY 18Z. SECONDARY SHORTWAVE ACROSS NORTHERN
NE/SOUTHERN SD WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO PUSH EASTWARD AND WILL BRING
SOME ADDITIONAL PRECIPITATION TO NORTHERN IOWA FOR THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS. IN ADDITION...SATURATED SOILS AND COOLER TEMPS HAVE ALLOWED
FOR FOG DEVELOPMENT ACROSS THE NORTH...WITH DENSE FOG. DENSE FOG
ADVISORY OUT FOR AREA FOR THE EARLY MORNING HOURS...HOWEVER
VISIBILITIES MAY IMPROVE SOMEWHAT AS PRECIPITATION PUSHES IN...BUT
WILL STILL SEE RESTRICTIONS.

EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO WARM ABOVE YESTERDAY AGAIN TODAY AS WEAK WAA
PUSHES IN TO THE AREA...ESPECIALLY THE WEST. HOWEVER...WITH CLOUDS
LINGERING ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTHEAST DO NOT ANTICIPATE MUCH MIXING
AND HAVE DROPPED TEMPERATURES THERE SLIGHTLY. THOUGH IF CLOUDS CLEAR
OUT TEMPERATURES LIKELY TOO LOW. FOCUS THEN TURNS TO PRECIPITATION
CHANCES FOR THIS AFTERNOON AS BOUNDARY ACROSS SOUTHERN IOWA/NORTHERN
MISSOURI BECOMES FOCUS FOR THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. WITH OVERNIGHT
MCS ACROSS MISSOURI ANTICIPATE DEVELOPMENT ACROSS NORTHERN MISSOURI
ALONG OUTFLOW BOUNDARY FIRST...WITH SOME INTO SOUTHERN IOWA IN THE
LATE AFTERNOON HOURS. CAPE VALUES INCREASE TO AROUND 2000 J/KG IN
THE SOUTH AND WEST FOR THE AFTERNOON HOURS...HOWEVER BEST SHEAR
REMAINS WELL TO THE EAST...AND THERE IS A THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER
IN THE AFTERNOON...BEST CHANCES LOOK SOUTH OF IOWA.

.LONG TERM.../TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
ISSUED AT 349 AM CDT TUE MAY 28 2013

MAIN CONCERNS ARE CONTINUED CHANCES FOR MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL
AND POTENTIAL SHIFTING TOWARD SEVERE WEATHER WEDNESDAY THROUGH
THURSDAY EVENING. EARLY IN THE PERIOD WE WILL SEE YET ANOTHER WAVE
AND INCREASING WARM AIR ADVECTION INTO THE WARM FRONTAL/OLD OUTFLOW
BOUNDARY NOW OVER MISSOURI AS IT BEGINS TO LIFT NORTH TUESDAY NIGHT.
WITH H850 WINDS AGAIN INCREASING OVERNIGHT...EXPECT TO SEE ANOTHER
ROUND OF RAINFALL. SOME QUESTIONS REMAIN AS TO HOW FAR NORTH THE
AREA OF THUNDER WILL DRIFT TONIGHT. BOTH THE 00Z 4KM WRF AND GFS/NAM
AND 12Z EURO SUGGEST THAT THE SOUTHERN AREAS WILL AGAIN SEE MORE
RAINFALL THAN THE NORTH WITH THE POTENTIAL OF 1-2 INCHES ONCE AGAIN.
THE RAINFALL LAST EVENING TURNED OUT TO BE MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH A
DEVELOPED MCV TRACKING ENE WITH TIME.  THIS PROVED TO HELP MITIGATE
ANY WIDESPREAD HEAVY RAINFALL...THOUGH THE COMMA HEAD PROVIDED OVER
AN INCH AS IT MOVED NORTHEAST WITH TIME. TONIGHT THE THUNDER LOOKS
MORE TIED TO THE OLD BOUNDARY WHICH MAY PROVE MORE PROBLEMATIC OVER
THE FAR SOUTH AND NORTHERN MISSOURI. FOR NOW...WILL LEAVE ANY
ADDITIONAL HEADLINES FOR THE DAY CREW TO SEE WHERE THE BEST CHANCES
FOR HEAVY RAINFALL MAY BE. CURRENTLY THE SOUTH IS FAVORED AGAIN. AS
WE TRANSITION INTO WEDNESDAY THE H850 WINDS INCREASE DURING THE DAY
EVEN THOUGH THE H500 TROUGH LAGS THE ARRIVAL OF LOWER LEVEL WINDS.
THIS SHOULD SET THE STAGE FOR BETTER CHANCES FOR SOME SEVERE WEATHER
EITHER LATE WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON OR WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS THE H500
SYSTEM TRACKS INTO THE AREA. THE CHANCES FOR MORE STORMS CONTINUES
INTO THURSDAY WITH FAIRLY STRONG WIND FIELDS THROUGH THE COLUMN. BY
THE AFTERNOON THE GREATER THREAT FOR MORE ORGANIZED SEVERE LOOKS TO
BE SLOWLY SHIFTING EAST WITH MOST OF THE MODELS HINTING AT A BREAK
COMING UP BY FRIDAY ACROSS THE REGION. UNTIL THAT TIME...THERE IS
STILL THE POTENTIAL FOR PERIODIC HEAVY RAINFALL WHICH WILL HAVE TO
BE EVALUATED EVERY FORECAST PERIOD. HIGHS OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS
LIKELY TO WARM A BIT BUT CLOUDS AND CONVECTION WILL DAMPEN ANY
REALLY WARM TEMPERATURES ABOUT THE 78 TO 84 RANGE. LOWS OVERNIGHT
WILL HANG IN THE 60S UNTIL FRIDAY NIGHT WHEN COOLER AIR GETS DRAWN
INTO THE REGION ALONG WITH DRIER AIR.

&&

.AVIATION...28/18Z
 ISSUED AT 1228 PM CDT TUE MAY 28 2013

GENERALLY CONVECTIVE ENVIRONMENT THAT HAS PREVAILED OVER THE LAST
SEVERAL DAYS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE COMING TAF PERIOD AND
BEYOND. THIS MEANS MULTIPLE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THUNDERSTORMS...LOW
CIGS/VSBYS...FOG DEVELOPMENT...ETC. FOR NOW IT APPEARS THAT THE
BEST TS CHANCES WILL BE IN THE SOUTH THIS EVE AND
TONIGHT...SPREADING INTO THE NORTH TOWARD WED MORNING...BUT THERE
IS A CONSIDERABLE DEGREE OF UNCERTAINTY SO HAVE JUST GONE WITH
VCTS FOR NOW. FOG REDEVELOPMENT WILL ALSO RELY HEAVILY ON THE
THUNDERSTORMS AND ASSOCIATED CONVECTIVE DEBRIS CLOUDS...OR LACK
THEREOF...SO WHILE DENSE FOG IS POSSIBLE HAVE ONLY GONE WITH MVFR
VSBYS FOR NOW. EXPECT DETAILS TO BE BETTER REFINED FOR THE 00Z
ISSUANCE AND SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS.

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 349 AM CDT TUE MAY 28 2013

FLASH FLOOD DISCUSSION...
RAINFALL HAS ENDED ACROSS THE AREA THIS MORNING SO THE FLASH FLOOD
WATCH FOR THIS MORNING HAS BEEN CANCELLED. HOWEVER...ADDITIONAL
STORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP LATER TODAY OR TONIGHT. THE MAIN
FOCUS TONIGHT LOOKS TO BE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF ONCE AGAIN
WITH POTENTIAL FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF HEAVY RAINS AS OLD
OUTFLOW/WARM FRONT REMAINS THE FOCUS FOR ADDITIONAL MASS
CONVERGENCE. GRIDDED FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE SHOULD RECOVER SOMEWHAT
WITH BREAK OVER MOST OF AREA TODAY...BUT OVERALL CONDITIONS WILL
REMAIN ABOUT THE SAME WITH SOUTH HALF GENERALLY AT 1-2 INCH
CRITERIA IN ONE HOUR AND 1.5 TO 2.25 FOR 3 HOUR RAINFALL TOTALS.
WITH EXPECTATION OF ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORMS PRODUCING SIMILAR
AMOUNTS TONIGHT.

RIVER FLOOD DISCUSSION...
NUMEROUS RIVER FLOOD WARNINGS ARE IN EFFECT FOR THE FORECAST AREA
FOR A RANGE OF CONDITIONS RANGING FROM MAJOR TO MINOR FLOODING.
MAJOR FLOODING IS CURRENTLY FORECAST IN ONE LOCATION...THE NORTH
RACCOON RIVER NEAR PERRY. WITH THE LOCAL FLUCTUATIONS IN RAINFALL
FORECASTS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS...RIVER FORECASTS WILL HAVE
TO BE MONITORED CLOSELY AND ADJUSTED BASED ON CHANGES TO FORECAST
RAINFALL. AGAIN...IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP IN MIND THAT THE RIVER
FORECASTS MAY FLUCTUATE DEPENDING ON FUTURE RAINFALL AMOUNTS AND
PLACEMENT.
