AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE QUAD CITIES IA IL
958 AM CDT WED APR 17 2013

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 946 AM CDT WED APR 17 2013

UPDATED THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH EARLIER TO BEGIN AT 9 AM THIS
MORNING FOR THE ENTIRE CWA...AND WILL BE IN EFFECT THROUGH
THURSDAY EVENING. SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH ALSO IN EFFECT UNTIL
5 PM THIS AFTERNOON FOR MOST OF THE CWA. COPIOUS MOISTURE FROM
THE GULF WITH A STRONG SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL JET RIDING UP OVER A
SLOW MOVING WARM FRONT IN SOUTHERN MO. SOUTH OF THE WARM FRONT
SURFACE DEW POINTS WERE AROUND 70. 850 MB DEW POINTS WERE 15C AT
KTOP AND 13C AT KILN. LIGHTNING PREVENTED A BALLOON LAUNCH HERE AT
KDVN.

NEWEST MODEL DATA SUGGESTS THE LOW LEVEL JET WILL PERSIST TODAY THROUGH
TONIGHT AND EVEN STRENGTHEN. THIS WILL RESULT IN CONTINUOUS
DEVELOPMENT OF THUNDERSTORMS AND WILL NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON ANY
TRAINING OF THUNDERSTORMS WHICH WOULD RESULT IN FLASH FLOODING.
STILL EXPECT WIDESPREAD 2 TO 4 INCHES OF RAIN WITH 5+ INCHES IN
ANY PERSISTENT TRAINING OF STORMS. THIS AMOUNT OF RAIN WILL CAUSE
MODERATE TO MAJOR FLOODING ON MANY RIVERS OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL
DAYS. LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE IN
STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS TODAY AND TONIGHT.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 310 AM CDT WED APR 17 2013

RADAR TRENDS AT 2 AM ARE SUPPORTING BEGINNING OF A MAJOR HEAVY
RAIN EVENT WITH FORCING TOOLS INDICATING TRAINING RISK OF STORMS
NEXT 24 HOURS. PRESSURE FALL PATTERNS INDICATE NEW MEXICO SURFACE
LOW TO MOVE NORTHEAST INTO FORECAST AREA TONIGHT. AREA DEWPOINTS
ARE RISING WITH POOLING ALONG WARM FRONT NOW MOVING NORTH INTO
MISSOURI. INITIALIZATION AND VERIFICATION COMBINED WITH LIFT...MCS
AND WAWT FORCING TOOLS COMBINED WITH ABOVE TRENDS SUPPORT OVERALL
FORCING OF UKMET AND EVOLUTION...HENCE TRENDING TOWARD HEAVY RAIN
WITH FLASH FLOODING RISK WITH TRAINING OF STORMS. WILL KEEP FLASH
FLOOD WATCH WITH MINOR CHANGES BUT WILL ADD RISK OF 4 TO 5 INCH
AMOUNTS WITH TRAINING OF STORMS THAT WOULD CAUSE SIGNIFICANT FLASH
FLOODING AND RIVER FLOODING RISKS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 310 AM CDT WED APR 17 2013

TODAY...MINOR CHANGES MADE. RAIN AND PERIODS OF EMBEDDED THUNDER
TO OVERSPREAD ALL THE AREA BY EARLY AFTERNOON. RAIN TOTALS TO RANGE
FROM AROUND .5 INCHES EAST TO LOCALLY OVER 1 INCHES BY EVENING IN
WESTERN SECTIONS. LARGE TEMPERATURE GRADIENT WITH UPPER 40S NW TO
WELL INTO THE LOWER 60S SE SECTIONS. EASTERLY WINDS WITH LATENT
HEAT RELEASE WILL GUST AT TIMES TO WELL OVER 20 MPH. CONDITIONS
FOR TRAINING OF STORMS SHOULD RAPIDLY INCREASE AFTER 21Z...OR 4 PM
AS SURFACE LOW MOVES NORTHEAST FROM MISSOURI.

TONIGHT...HEAVIEST RAINS SHOULD FALL DURING THIS PERIOD. LOCAL TOOLS
SUPPORT RISKS OF MULTIPLE EPISODES OF TRAINING OF STORMS SUGGESTED
WITHIN +/- 40 MILES OF A OTM-IOW-DBQ LINE UNTIL ABOUT 1-3 AM. PW
VALUES OVER 1.5 INCHES OVER A 6-10 HOUR PERIOD SUPPORTS 4 TO 5
INCH AMOUNTS ARE POSSIBLE. STRONG LOW LEVEL JET IS THE MAIN DRIVER
WHICH SMALL CHANGES WILL DECIDE WHERE AMOUNTS FALL AND HOW LONG
THESE HEAVY RAIN BANDS STAY STATIONARY. THESE AMOUNTS SUPPORT RISK
OF FLASH FLOODING THAT COULD BE SIGNIFICANT IN LOCAL AREAS. THESE
AMOUNTS WOULD ALSO RESULT IN MAJOR FLOODING OF RIVERS. HEAVY RAIN
SHOULD SLIDE EAST INTO EASTERN PORTIONS OF FORECAST AREA WELL AFTER
MIDNIGHT. THE SATURATION OF THE AIRMASS SHOULD LIMIT SEVERE WEATHER
RISK WITH SOME HAIL POSSIBLE IN STRONGEST STORMS AND GUSTY WINDS.
ALMOST ALL OF THE AREA TO RECEIVE HEAVY RAINS OF AN ADDITIONAL 1
TO NEAR 2 INCHES OUTSIDE OF TRAINING OF STORMS TONIGHT...MAINLY
ALONG AND WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI. TEMPERATURES NEARLY STEADY MOST
LOCATIONS AS FRONTAL BOUNDARY STALLS ALONG THE AFOREMENTIONED
HEAVY RAIN AXIS.

1.1 INCHES IN THE WEST AND UP TO 1.6 INCHES ALONG AND EAST OF THE

0.6 TO 1.2 INCHES POSSIBLE EAST OF THE MS RVR FROM 12Z-18Z THU
EXACERBATING ANY ONGOING FLOODING AND PUSHING OTHER RIVERS/STREAMS
OVER THE LIMITS. A CONVECTIVE LINE OF STRONG STORMS MAY BE ONGOING
AT THE START OF THE PERIOD PUSHING ACRS THE MS RVR...BUT EXTENT OF
DEEP COLUMN SATURATION AND TIME OF DAY SUGGEST THAT SVR THREAT MAY
BE MINIMAL LOCALLY IN THE SOUTHEASTERN THIRD OF TH DVN CWA...AND

ENTIRELY TO ALL SNOW ACRS THE NORTH HALF OF THE CWA BY 09Z FRI. A
RAIN-SNOW DEF ZONE OR ALMOST ALL SNOW THROUGH MID FRI MORNING WILL
LOOK TO CONTINUE TO ENGULF THE CWA. MODEL QPF AND TIMING SUGGEST
THE POTENTIAL FOR 1 TO 2 INCHES OF SNOW NORTH OF I80...BUT AGAIN
MILD GROUND TEMPS AND TEMPS UP TO 1K FT AGL SUGGEST SNOW ACCUMULATION
WILL BE HARD TO COME BY WITH MAYBE A HALF INCH OF SLUSHY ACCUM/S
ON GRASSY OR ELEVATED SFC/S AT BEST THROUGH MID FRI MORNING.
LINGERING DEF ZONE PRECIP OR DIURNAL SHOWERS TO TREND BACK TO ALL
LIQUID AT SFC ARRIVAL BY MIDDAY OR EVEN LATE FRI MORNING. HIGH

THE MID 40S. A RAW DAY WITH GUSTY CAA SFC WINDS OF 15 TO 25 MPH
AND GUSTS OVER 30 MPH. CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE TO CENTER ACRS THE
CWA FRI NIGHT. IF SKIES CLEAR OUT AND SFC WINDS DECOUPLE...
POTENTIAL FOR SOME OF THE AREA TO HAVE A HARD FREEZE WITH LOWS AT
LEAST DOWN IN THE UPPER 20S BY EARLY SAT MORNING. MAY BE CLOSE TO
RECORD LOWS FOR APRIL 20TH AT A FEW OF THE CLIMATE SITES. DRY SAT
WITH ONGOING RIDGING AND HIGHS BACK AT LEAST IN THE LOWER 50S. THE

THEN BECOMING MOSTLY IFR AT ALL TERMINALS BETWEEN 17/17-24Z AS
WIDESPREAD PRECIPITATION CONTINUES TO DEVELOP. PROLONGED PERIODS
OF RAIN THAT WILL BE HEAVY AT TIMES WITH THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD
CONTINUE UNTIL 18/12Z. ALL TERMINALS TO SEE EXTENDED PERIODS OF
IFR AND LIFR CONDITIONS AFTER 21Z TODAY WITH TOTALLY SATURATED

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 310 AM CDT WED APR 17 2013

ODDS ARE INCREASING FOR A SIGNIFICANT HEAVY RAIN EVENT WITH HIGH
CONFIDENCE FOR ALL THE AREA TO PICK UP UP AT LEAST 2 INCHES OF
RAIN OVER NEXT 48 HOURS.

LOCAL TOOLS SUPPORT TRAINING OF STORMS...MOSTLY TONIGHT...OF A
20-50 MILE SWATH WITH BEST ESTIMATE OF HEAVIEST RAINS ROUGHLY NEAR
OR ALONG A OTM-IOW-DBQ AXIS. IF TRAINING OF STORMS DOES OCCUR...3
TO 5 INCHES OF RAIN WITH EVEN LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE.
THIS COULD RESULT IN VERY SIGNIFICANT FLASH FLOODING RISKS AND
MAJOR RIVER FLOODING.

SINCE SOILS ARE MOIST TO SATURATED FROM RAINFALL LAST WEEK...RIVER
FORECASTS ARE QUITE SENSITIVE TO ANY ADDITIONAL RAINFALL. THE
PROBABILITY IS HIGH THAT REVISIONS...POSSIBLY SIGNIFICANT...TO
RIVER FORECASTS WILL BE MADE OVER THE NEXT 5 DAYS.

EMERGENCY MANAGERS AND THOSE WITH INTERESTS ALONG AREA RIVERS ARE
URGED TO FOLLOW WEATHER AND RIVER FORECASTS CLOSELY OVER THE NEXT
WEEK.

THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE OUTLOOK AREA TODAY AND TONIGHT
WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS PRODUCING VERY HEAVY RAINFALL...ALONG
WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS. THERE IS A
SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE ENTIRE OUTLOOK

SATURATED GROUND AND WILL AGGRAVATE ANY ONGOING FLOODING
SITUATIONS...AND CREATE NEW FLOODING. SEVERAL RIVERS ARE IN FLOOD
AND THIS ADDITIONAL RAINFALL IS EXPECTED TO RAISE RIVER LEVELS
FURTHER. FLASH FLOODING IN URBAN AND LOW LYING AREAS MAY ALSO
OCCUR.

SOME STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS MAY ALSO OCCUR THURSDAY MAINLY EAST OF
THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER. THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER HAS A SLIGHT
RISK OF SEVERE STORMS IN THESE AREAS FOR THURSDAY.
