Area forecast discussion, Jun 30, 6:23 AM CDT, 5 hours 21 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DES MOINES IA
623 AM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 317 AM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

COLD FRONT FROM SERN MANITOBA INTO ERN CO WILL MOVE INTO IA THIS
MORNING AND PASS EAST OF THE STATE TONIGHT. A SECONDARY COLD FRONT
WILL SWEEP SOUTHEAST ACROSS IA ON TUE. COOL HIGH PRESSURE WILL
SETTLE IN FOR THE MIDDLE AND END OF THE WEEK.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TODAY/...
ISSUED AT 317 AM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

A DYNAMIC WEATHER SITUATION WITH A COOL SEASON STRENGTH LOW
PRESSURE OVER SRN CANADA IN A SUMMER ATMOSPHERE. CONVECTION IS
ONGOING WITH THE MAIN HEAVY RAIN THREAT MOVING INTO WESTERN IA
THIS MORNING AND PROGRESSING ACROSS THE STATE DURING THE DAY. HAVE
EXTENDED THE FFA THROUGH THE DAY TODAY WITH FFG VALUES QUITE LOW.
EXPECT TO SEE WIDESPREAD 1 TO 2.5 INCH RAINFALL AMOUNTS WITH LOCAL
REPORTS OF UP TO 6 INCHES. PWAT VALUES INCREASE TO 2 TO 2.5
INCHES...ABOUT 3+ SIGMA ABOVE NORMAL. SEVERE THREAT WILL EXIST
ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWA WITH THE GREATEST THREAT ACROSS THE SOUTH
CLOSER TO THE INSTABILITY AND WHERE CONVECTION MAY BE MORE
SURFACE BASED BY MID DAY.

.LONG TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
ISSUED AT 317 AM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

LINGERING THUNDERSTORMS IN THE SOUTHEAST THIS EVENING WILL EXIT
THE CWA BEFORE MIDNIGHT. THAT WILL BE THE END OF THE SEVERE THREAT
FOR A WHILE. THE SECONDARY COLD FRONT IS COMING THROUGH WITH
LIMITED INSTABILITY AND EXPECT THAT TO BE MOSTLY SHOWERS WITH
ISOLATED NON-SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. VERY COOL WEATHER FOR THE
MIDDLE OF THE WEEK WITH HIGHS ON WEDNESDAY APPROACHING RECORD COOL
MAXES FOR THE DATE. A WARM UP IS ON TAP FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK.
WILL SEE THE PATTERN BECOME MORE ACTIVE HEADING INTO THE WEEKEND
AS THE WARMER AIR MOVES IN AND THE UPPER RIDGE MOVES CLOSER. WILL
KEEP AN EYE ON THE POTENTIAL FOR DEVELOPMENT OF "ARTHUR" ALONG THE
EAST COAST. A DEEPER STORM MAY DELAY THE EASTWARD PROGRESSION OF
THE PATTERN BY A DAY OR SO.

&&

.AVIATION...30/12Z
ISSUED AT 617 AM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

A COLD FRONT WILL ENTER NORTHWEST IA THIS MORNING AND EXIT TO THE
SOUTHEAST THIS EVENING. WIDESPREAD STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
ARE EXPECTED AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. IMPROVING CONDITIONS ARE
EXPECTED TO NIGHT AS DRIER AIR MOVES INTO THE STATE.
THUNDERSTORMS WILL EXIT WITH THE FRONT HOWEVER.

OUTLOOK...SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL MOVE INTO THE STATE TUE AND
PASS SOUTHEAST TUESDAY NIGHT. WILL SEE SHOWERS DEVELOP WITH IT AND
SOME MVFR CIGS IN ITS WAKE OVER THE NORTHERN TAF SITES. THE REST
OF THE WEEK LOOKS TO BE VFR AT ALL SITES.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 317 AM CDT MON JUN 30 2014

RAINFALL FROM LAST NIGHT HAS ADDED MORE TO THE POTENTIAL FOR
FLOODING. EXPECTING TO SEE SIGNIFICANT RAINFALL OVER MUCH OF IA
TODAY. WITH FFG VALUES VERY LOW...IT WILL NOT TAKE MUCH TO CAUSE
FLASH FLOODING. LOCALIZED PONDING WILL COME WITH ANY HEAVY SHOWER
AT THIS POINT...WITH FLASH FLOODING LIKELY WITH REPEATED
THUNDERSTORMS IN ANY ONE AREA. THE ADDITIONAL RAIN WILL LIKELY
CAUSE FURTHER RISES ON THE MAINSTEM RIVERS OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL
DAYS AS WELL. RAINFALL AMOUNTS AFTER TODAY WILL BE VERY LIGHT. THE
THREAT OF ADDITIONAL FLOODING WILL BE PAST BY THIS EVENING.
