AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
324 AM CST WED FEB 20 2013

.SHORT TERM /TODAY/...
ANOTHER DAY OF COOL AND QUIET WEATHER IS IN STORE FOR THE AREA. A
SURFACE RIDGE REMAINS ENTRENCHED ACROSS IOWA THIS MORNING AND WILL
ONLY SLOWLY MOVE OFF TO THE EAST AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING WINTER
STORM...SETTLING ALONG THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY BY THIS EVENING.
THAT WILL KEEP COOL AIR IN PLACE...ESPECIALLY WITH HIGH CLOUDS
SPREADING IN FROM THE SYSTEM TO THE SOUTHWEST...BUT WITH COLD AIR
ADVECTION DIMINISHING EXPECT HIGH TEMPERATURES A LITTLE BIT ABOVE
YESTERDAYS LEVELS AND WELL ABOVE MOS GUIDANCE IN MOST AREAS.

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
UPPER LOW PRESSURE OVER SRN CA WILL ROUND THE BEND AND BEGIN TO
LIFT NEWD TONIGHT. SURFACE LOW IS SLOW TO ORGANIZE...BUT WILL
EVENTUALLY FORM OVER MO LATE THU OR THU NIGHT AS H5 LOW PUSHES
NORTHEAST INTO IA. WHOLE SYSTEM IS WEAKENING AS IT MINORS OUT
LIFTING UP THE WEST SIDE OF THE RIDGE TO THE EAST. TIMING IS A
LITTLE SLOWER THAN THINKING OF YESTERDAY AND MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS
TO THE HEADLINES TO FIT THAT. WILL UPGRADE THE SOUTHWEST PART OF
THE STATE TO WARNING BY LATE THU MORNING...KEPT HEADLINE AS A
WATCH FARTHER NORTHEAST AND WOULD EXPECT TO SEE AN UPGRADE WITH
THE UPDATED MORNING DATA. WHOLE SITUATION WILL DETERIORATE RAPIDLY
AS THE SNOW WILL COME ON QUICKLY ONCE THE LOWER LAYERS OF THE
ATMOSPHERE FINALLY SATURATE. FROM CLOUDY TO 1 TO 2 INCH/HOUR SNOW
RATES WILL OCCUR IN UNDER A HALF HOUR TEMPORALLY AND 10 MILES
SPACIALLY. BAND OF HEAVY SNOW WILL LAST SIX HOURS OR LESS...BUT
SNOW WILL CONTINUE AFTER THE HEAVY SNOW PASSES FOR SOME
TIME...MUST ACCUMULATION RATES WILL BE MUCH LESS AS LIFT FALLS
OFF. CROSS SECTIONAL ANALYSIS SUGGESTS THE POSSIBILITY OF BRIEF 2
TO 3 INCH/HOUR RATES...WHICH IN ITSELF COULD CUT VSBY TO 1/8SM.
SYSTEM MOVES OUT AND ATTENTION WILL TURN TO THE NEXT ONE FOR MON.
MUCH MORE UNCERTAINTY WITH THAT ONE IN SPITE OF IT LOOKING SIMILAR
I A LOT OF WAY TO THE ONE THU-FRI. WARMER AIR WILL BE IN PLACE AS
THERE IS NO REAL ARCTIC INFLUENCE BEHIND THE FIRST STORM. THE
ECMWF IS QUITE A BIT WARMER THAN THE GFS AND WOULD SUGGEST MORE
RAIN THAN SNOW. GFS LOOKS TOO COLD AND THUS TOO SNOWY. EITHER
WAY, IT DOES LOOK LIKE A DECENT PRECIP PRODUCER...THOUGH WILL BE
THE LAST OF ITS KIND FOR A WHILE.
