AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE QUAD CITIES IA IL
627 AM CDT FRI JUN 21 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 315 AM CDT FRI JUN 21 2013

CONVECTIVE COMPLEX CURRENTLY STARTING TO DIVE SOUTHEASTWARD FROM JUST
WEST OF MPX TOWARDS SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA. THIS PATH IS ALSO DEPICTED
IN MSAS SURFACE DEWPOINTS AND THETA E GRADIENTS. OVER THE DVN CWA
WARM SOUTH SOUTHEAST WINDS HAVE MAINLY KEPT TEMPS IN THE MIDDLE AND
UPPER 70S AS OF 08Z...WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE 60S. ON RADAR...A LINE
OF WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS WITH A FEW ISOLATED LIGHTNING STRIKES
WERE FOUND ALONG AND EAST OF THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 350 AM CDT FRI JUN 21 2013

MAIN FOCUS ON THE SHORT TERM IS WITH TRACKING MCS IN MINNESOTA
SOUTHEASTWARD INTO/ACROSS PARTS OF THE DVN CWA.  MODELS DO NOT HAVE
A HANDLE ON THE ONGOING ACTIVITY TO THE NORTH...THUS CONCEPTUAL
MODELS AND SHORT TERM FORECASTING TOOLS WERE HEAVILY RELIED UPON.

BELIEVE MINNESOTA CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY WILL WORK INTO AND ACROSS THE
NORTHERN PART OF THE CWA...MAINLY NORTH OF I80 THIS MORNING. EXITING
AROUND MIDDAY.  AT THIS TIME... IT SHOULD BE IN A DIMINISHING OR
WEAKENING PHASE AS IT MOVES THROUGH.  HOWEVER...CANNOT RULE OUT A
MARGINALLY SEVERE STORM.  THE SPC HAS THE ENTIRE OUTLOOK AREA IN A
SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS.  TEMPERATURES WILL BE HELD
DOWN INITIALLY DUE TO THE CONVECTION...BUT WILL MANAGE A LATE DAY
RECOVERY...BUT NOT ENOUGH TO SPARK ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND STORMS.
STILL UNCERTAIN FOR AREAS NORTH OF HIGHWAY 30...CLOSER TO DEWPOINT
GRADIENT...THUS LEFT A SLIGHT CHANCE IN THAT AREA THROUGH THE NIGHT.
HIGHS TODAY WERE BUMPED UP A TAD WITH MID 80S NORTH TO LOW 90S
SOUTH...AS WELL AS MINS TONIGHT /UPPER 60S AND LOWER 70S/.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 315 AM CDT FRI JUN 21 2013

MID SUMMER HEAT AND HUMIDITY INTO WEDNESDAY...THEN TURNING COOLER
WITH BEST CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY.

OVERVIEW...MODEL INITIALIZATION AND VERIFICATION AVERAGE WITH ALL
SOLUTIONS POOR ON MINNESOTA MCS. LARGE SCALE FORCING AND KINEMATIC
FIELDS LEAST WORST SOLUTIONS TEND TOWARD UKMET AND HI-RES ECMWF.
DAYS 2 THROUGH 7 VERIFICATION AT 2 AM SUPPORTS A KINEMATIC FORCING
OF A 60/40 MIX OF HI-RES ECMWF/UKMET WITH GFS. THIS SUGGESTS LITTLE
OR NO CONVECTION SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...THEN INCREASING LOW CHANCE
OF CONVECTION INTO TUESDAY. PERSISTENCE SUPPORTS WITH LOW LEVEL THERMAL
FIELDS TEMPERATURES 4-8 DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL INTO WEDNESDAY WITH FORCING
PROFILES FAVORING LOW CHANCE POPS SUNDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY WITH POOR
TO VERY POOR CONFIDENCE OF TIMING OF ANY STORMS THROUGH WEDNESDAY ATTM
DUE TO PULSE NATURE OF CONVECTION UNTIL THE FRONT ARRIVES AND PASSES
ON THURSDAY.

SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...FAIR...VERY WARM TO HOT AND HUMID. HIGHS WITHIN
3 DEGREES EITHER SIDE OF 91F PER LOCAL TOOLS. NIGHTS MUGGY WITH LOWS...MOSTLY
IN THE LOWER 70S WITH MODERATE SOUTH WINDS OF 10 TO 20 KTS WITH SOME
GUSTS TO AROUND 25 MPH IN THE AFTERNOON HOURS. DEWPOINTS TO HOVER WITHIN
FEW DEGREES OF 70F.

SUNDAY NIGHT...LOW CHANCE OF CONVECTION SUGGESTED WITH ARRIVAL OF A
WEAK UPPER DISTURBANCE THAT LATER SHIFTS WILL NEED TO MONITOR WITH
MARGINAL RISK OF STRONG STORMS DUE TO MODERATE INSTABILITY WITH MLCAPE
VALUES AROUND 2500 J/KG AND DECENT UPPER LEVEL DIFFLUENCE.

MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...CONTINUED VERY WARM AND HUMID WITH LOW LEVEL
THERMAL FIELDS SUPPORTIVE OF HIGHS 86-93F AND MINS MOSTLY IN THE LOWER
70S EXCEPT MID/UPPER 60S WITH ANY COOL POOLS DUE TO NOCTURNAL CONVECTION.
FORCING PROFILES AND INSTABILITY SUGGESTS CONVECTION MOSTLY LATE PM
INTO AM HOURS WITH STRONG TO ISOLATED LOW END PULSE SEVERE POSSIBLE
LATE PM INTO LATE EVENING HOURS.

THURSDAY...COOLER WITH POPS TOO LOW MOSTLY DUE TO TIMING OF FRONTAL
PASSAGE FOR LATER SHIFTS TO REASSESS. MAGNITUDE OF TIMING OF SHOULD
BE BETTER CLARIFIED IN THE NEXT 12-24 HOURS. LOCAL TECHNIQUES SUGGEST
THIS FRONT SHOULD BE A STRONGER AND PROBABLY A BIT COOLER TEMPS THAN
ARE FORECASTED. THIS COOLER TREND SHOULD LAST INTO NEXT WEEKEND.
