Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
1230 AM CDT Sun Jul 17 2016

...Updated for 17/06Z Aviation Discussion...

.SHORT TERM.../Tonight/
Issued at 331 PM CDT Sat Jul 16 2016

Thunderstorm evolution overnight is the forecast challenge tonight.
Weak area of light showers has been progressing east over far
Southeast South Dakota this afternoon along main ribbon of 850-700
mb theta-e advection. It has been gradually drying up as it pushes
into drier air but still some potential to extend into the far
northwest counties before dissipating. The next region to focus on
is activity already beginning over the Central Dakotas and its
evolution through the overnight. Theta-e advection will continue to
increase and expand into Iowa this evening with the MUCAPE axis
entering the western portion of the state. Storms across the Dakotas
likely will grow upscale into a linear complex and follow the
Corfidi vectors southeast along the instability axis though this
path is a bit uncertain with mean flow more easterly. Damaging winds
and potentially large hail will be possible.  That said, no strong
indicators for good cold pool development with the lack of 0-3 km
theta-e difference generally 15C or less. Low level effective
helicity will increase to 200-300 m2/s2 so possible if get strong
enough low level buoyancy, a few mesovortices could develop
and be capable of enhanced areas of wind.

.LONG TERM.../Sunday through Saturday/
Issued at 331 PM CDT Sat Jul 16 2016

Storms should be ongoing Sunday primarily in two areas.  A warm
front will exist from Algona to Ottumwa and will be lifting
Northeast across the state through 18z.  I am expecting some storms
along and ahead of this boundary. Then there will be the complex
of storms mentioned in the short term discussion entering the
West. These storms may get a bit of a kick from a shortwave
forecast to cross the area coincident with the storms moving
through. All this activity should wane through the morning hours.
Then during the afternoon a cold front will be pushing across the
state and be roughly across the Northern third or so of the
forecast area by 00Z. A lot of what happens later Sunday will
depend on how the daytime convection evolves and how quickly we
clear out. The Southeast half of the state will be under the gun
during the afternoon as expected clearing will rapidly destabilize
things. At this point Eastern Iowa...East of I-35 and South of
Highway 20 look to have the best potential as the best shear and
forcing will exist in this area. Much of the activity will occur
between 21Z and 00Z (depending on how fast storms develop) and
03z. After that time the threat shifts more into Eastern Iowa.

Late Sunday night through Monday looks relatively quiet as high
pressure builds into Iowa.  Monday night and Tuesday we see a return
of warm advection and pretty strong theta-e advection lifting across
the state bringing the next threat for storms. Southwestern Iowa
looks to be the targeted area Monday evening lifting across the
Western half of the state by Tuesday morning and aided by a
shortwave moving through the state.  Late Monday night and Tuesday
look like this could be an interesting event.  We will have 60kts of
deep shear across much of the forecast area during the late
morning/afternoon hours.  We could see some very robust storms
across the state. By late Tuesday ridging gets established pushing
the threat for storms into Eastern Iowa. The threat for
thunderstorms will remain over the Eastern CWA into Eastern Iowa
through Wednesday.

Attention then turns to the building ridge sliding over the central
CONUS with the axis somewhere over Iowa.  This will bring hot
temperatures into the region as well as dewpoints into the lower to
mid 70s making for some pretty oppressive conditions mid to late
week.  However models differ on the handling of several shortwave
moving across the Northern Plains and Canada which will flatten the
ridge and bring temps down from the upper 90s to the mid 80s to
around 90 into next weekend.

.AVIATION.../For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Sunday night/
Issued at 1230 AM CDT Sun Jul 17 2016

Generally VFR conditions expected during the TAF period. TSRA
expected to enter the state after 06-07Z and progress
ESE/SE...with the best chances across the northeast half of the
state including KFOD...KMCW and KALO. Conditions may go MVFR during
the heavier precip but have not carried it as prevailing in the
TAFs. Additional TSRA chances return Sunday afternoon/evening mainly
to the southeast half of the state. Have carried VCTS in the TAFs.
