AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
317 PM CDT Mon Sep 19 2016

.SHORT TERM.../This evening through Tuesday/
Issued at 317 PM CDT Mon Sep 19 2016

Main focus tonight is on storm progression that are currently
initiating across the east central portion of the CWA. Weak cold
front dropping through the state currently stretching from NE IA to
just south of Waterloo and near Des Moines southwestward.  This
front will continue to progress south southeast through the evening
hours. Severe potential limited to the southeastern CWA given the
frontal position, with a small window of timing as well given
daytime heating, frontal progress etc.

Severe parameters looking better than it has most of the summer with
a narrow swath of decent low level lapse rates across the SE with
abundant CAPE. Effective shear in the 40 kt range or higher near and
out ahead of the front which should sustain the development and keep
the storms more organized. Low level shear isn't the best, but could
see some backing in the wind field just ahead of the front which
could increase the low level shear. This continues the threat for an
isolated tornado with a storm, especially one situated along the
boundary. Hail potential is there and wind as well given the
instability and medium deep-layer shear. Brief heavy rain also
expected with the storms, and expect them to be more progressive
limiting the flash flood threat.

Later tonight, skies should clear behind the storms with winds
becoming lighter and variable. WAA begins aloft again ahead of the
next system with the front aloft stalling out and kind of beginning
to push back to the north a bit as a warm front toward 12z.
Therefore kept western sites a bit warmer than previous lows for
tonight and cleared the skies out a bit more.

.LONG TERM.../Tuesday night through Monday/
Issued at 317 PM CDT Mon Sep 19 2016

The big focus in the extended this week will be much above normal
temperatures and rainfall with sporadic severe potential.

Active pattern in place this week with fast moving flow and return
of warm air advection already by Tuesday.  Though trough exits the
region tonight...models indicate that lee side troughing will
quickly occur over the western Plains as a fast moving short wave
over Washington state moves into South Dakota by 12z Tuesday. With
increasing warm air advection...a warm front will develop over northern
Iowa by 00z Wednesday. Along with increased southerly flow during
the day...sfc moisture will again increase by late afternoon with
H850 temps recovering to 18C north to 22C south by 00z Wednesday.
This should result in afternoon highs south of the front reaching
the mid to upper 80s once again. As return flow increases Tues
night...thunderstorms will break out as stronger warm air advection
is lifted above the H850 boundary primarily over northern Iowa into
southern Minnesota/Wisconsin. Overnight Corfidi vectors suggest some
backbuilding of storms may occur across the far north resulting in
moderate to locally heavy rainfall. The first round of storms may
drop up to an +1 inch of rainfall north.

Both the GFS/Euro suggest that the warm front will lift farther into
southern Minnesota Wednesday due to a surface wave resulting in the
heavier rainfall briefly moving north of the border during the day.
A trailing trough extending southwest of the low will likely be the
focus of additional showers and thunderstorms Wednesday very late
afternoon into the evening/overnight hours. Looking at the precipitable
water forecast for the area Tuesday through Friday shows that generally
...the higher pwats will be pooled near the boundaries through
the period. Thus...locally heavy rainfall should more or less be
tied to the position of the fronts. By late Wednesday afternoon
into Thursday the situation looks a bit more concerning with a
nearly stationary boundary draped across the north and several
short waves riding along the boundary. Both the GFS and the Euro
suggest that several periods of thunderstorms from Wednesday
evening through early Friday morning. The potential for a couple
of inches of rainfall over the north/northwest will likely cause
some rises on area rivers by late week or weekend. Will need to
monitor precipitation trends into late week. Model confidence by
Wednesday night is lower given the slight divergence of the 12z
Euro solution from the 12z GFS. Euro suggests that the heavier
rainfall in our forecast area will be west/northwest while the GFS
is slightly farther north. In either case...potential for 1 to 2
inch rainfall is looking more likely Wednesday night. Temperatures
will be well above normal through the week for the onset of fall.
With normal values for highs ranging from 73 north to 75
south/minimums from 47 northwest/54 south...most locations will be
running about 10 degrees above normal north to near 15 degrees
above normal central and southeast. Highs will still be in the mid
to upper 80s at times over the south with 70s to lower 80s across
the north.

By late in the week a stronger H500 shortwave trough moves into the
northern Plains. This will once again push a warm front north into
Iowa by Friday afternoon and Saturday. Meanwhile...another round of
thunderstorms will likely break out over Iowa Friday and continue
into the afternoon/early evening hours before the front lifts back
north into Saturday. Showers and thunderstorms will hold off until
Saturday night and Sunday as another wave moves east and drags a
cool front across the state once again.

.AVIATION.../For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon/
Issued at 1213 PM CDT Mon Sep 19 2016

Line of low VFR CIGS along the vicinity of a front stretching from
KALO to KDNS attm. It will continue to sink southward this
afternoon impacting KDSM and KOTM as well. Some storms may develop
near this front this afternoon into the early evening hours
between KALO and KOTM. Currently do not expect activity as far
west as KDSM, but will have to monitor.
