605 AM CDT SUN JUN 23 2013

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 356 AM CDT SUN JUN 23 2013

THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX TRACKING EASTWARD ACROSS OUR SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA
AND NORTHWEST IOWA COUNTIES WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN AND DISSIPATE
THROUGH THE EARLY MORNING HOURS. STILL LOOKING AT ENOUGH SHEAR AIDED
BY AN ACTIVE LOW LEVEL JET AND ELEVATED INSTABILITY TO SUSTAIN
STRONGER STORMS...BUT THE SEVERE THREAT HAS ENDED. BAND OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS BEHIND THE STRONGER STORMS AT THE LEADING EDGE
SHOULD TAPER OFF FROM WEST TO EAST THROUGH AROUND 9 OR 10 AM WITH THE
MAIN CONCERN BEING THE ADDITIONAL RAINFALL OVER SATURATED SOILS...AND
AGGRAVATING FLASH FLOODING CONCERNS. AREA RIVERS AND STREAMS WILL
CONTINUE TO BE WATCHED FOR POSSIBLE FLOODING AS THE RUNOFF FROM
OVERNIGHT RAINFALL DRAINS INTO THE BASINS.

ONCE AGAIN A LULL IN ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED LATE MORNING THROUGH MUCH
OF THE AFTERNOON...HOWEVER BY LATE AFTERNOON ANY RESIDUAL OUTFLOW
BOUNDARIES AS WELL AS A COLD FRONT WORKING INTO THE I29 CORRIDOR
SHOULD TRIGGER SOME SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NORTHWEST IOWA.
WARM AIR ADVECTION AHEAD OF THE FRONT...NEAR 70 DEWPOINTS AND 40 KT
SHEAR IN THIS AREA SUGGEST THAT SEVERE STORMS WILL AGAIN BE A
POSSIBILITY MAINLY LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING BEFORE
EXITING THE AREA AROUND 9 PM. HAIL TO THE SIZE OF GOLF-BALLS AND 60
MPH WIND GUSTS WILL BE POSSIBLE.

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 356 AM CDT SUN JUN 23 2013

MOIST SOUTHWEST FLOW CONTINUES INTO MONDAY WITH ANOTHER WARM AND
MUGGY DAY IN STORE. MODELS INDICATE THAT A WAVE WILL TRACK THROUGH
THE FLOW ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...HOWEVER
THE TIMING AND TRACK REMAINS UNCERTAIN AT THIS TIME. THE GFS IS THE
QUICKEST WITH THIS WAVE...BRINGING IT INTO THE MISSOURI VALLEY LATE
MORNING. DID LEAVE SOME LOW END POPS IN FOR MONDAY AFTERNOON...BUT
IT LOOKS LIKE THE BEST POTENTIAL FOR ACTIVITY TO TRIGGER WILL BE IN
THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...BUT TIMING AND LOCATION WILL BE
EXTREMELY CONDITIONAL ON WHERE WEAK BOUNDARIES SET UP FROM OVERNIGHT
CONVECTION AS WELL AS THE TRACK/TIMING OF THIS WAVE. AGAIN...WITH
MUGGY/UNSTABLE CONDITIONS POTENTIALLY DEVELOPING AND DECENT
SHEAR...SEVERE STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE.

RELATIVELY QUIET WEATHER EXPECTED IN THE EXTENDED AS A BROAD UPPER
LEVEL RIDGE ESTABLISHES ITSELF OVER THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST AND HIGH
PLAINS. A TROUGH TRACKING NEAR THE CANADIAN BORDER MID WEEK PLACES
THE REGION UNDER MORE NORTHWESTERLY FLOW WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND BEYOND.
IT LOOKS LIKE THE BEST BET FOR THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY WILL REMAIN
NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA. TEMPERATURES WILL BE QUITE WARM MID
WEEK...WITH HIGHS IN THE 90S WEST AND SOUTH ON TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY. DEWPOINTS COULD STILL BE IN THE UPPER 60S AND LOW 70S
DURING THE AFTERNOON ON TUESDAY...WHICH WOULD BRING HEAT INDEX
VALUES CLOSE TO THE CENTURY MARK FOR MUCH OF THE REGION. COOLER AND
DRIER NORTH NORTHWEST FLOW LATE WEEK SHOULD DROP HIGHS BACK INTO HE
UPPER 70S TO MID 80S.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z MONDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 605 AM CDT SUN JUN 23 2013

VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO PREVAIL TODAY BEHIND A DEPARTING
THUNDERSTORMS COMPLEX. SOME ADDITIONAL THUNDERSTORM REDEVELOPMENT
IS EXPECTED ACROSS NORTHWEST IOWA THIS AFTERNOON...HOWEVER HAVE
NOT INCLUDED TSRA IN KSUX TAF AS PROBABILITY OF OCCURRENCE AT THE
SITE IS TOO LOW. RECENT RAINS...LIGHT WINDS AND MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES
TONIGHT WILL MAKE RADIATIONAL FOG A POSSIBILITY LATE. WILL INCLUDE
4 TO 5 SM VSBYS AS DURATION OF RADIATION IS SHORT THIS TIME OF
YEAR AND FOG SHOULD NOT BECOME DENSE.
