AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE QUAD CITIES IA IL
646 AM CDT THU MAR 31 2016

...AVIATION UPDATE...

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 310 AM CDT THU MAR 31 2016

AT 3 AM CDT...WEAK WAVE LOCATED NEAR CEDAR RAPIDS MOVING NORTHEAST
WITH COLD FRONT MOVING SOUTHEAST AT 15 TO 20 MPH. RADAR AND PRESSURE
RISE/FALL COUPLETS SUGGEST LIGHT SHOWERS MAY INCREASE AS FRONT DRAGS
SOUTHEAST THIS MORNING WITH POSSIBLE BRIEF THUNDERSTORM. PASSAGE
OF FRONT WILL RESULT IN A SIGNIFICANT THERMAL GRADIENT ACROSS FORECAST
AREA TODAY. DIVING SHORT WAVE IN MONTANA WILL ARRIVE LATER TONIGHT
WITH MORE LIGHT RAIN ACROSS THE REGION.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 310 AM CDT THU MAR 31 2016

SHORT TERM FORECAST CONFIDENCE ASSESSMENT...FAIR OR AVERAGE WITH MAIN
ISSUE IS IMPACTS OF COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE TIMING ON HIGH TEMPERATURES.
THE CENTRAL SECTIONS HIGHS COULD EASILY BE OFF BY 3 TO 5 DEGREES DEPENDING
ON WHEN FRONT PASSES AND LOW CLOUDS ARRIVE. SECONDARY ISSUE IS HOW WIDESPREAD
LIGHT SHOWERS AND ISOLATED STORMS ARE LATE MORNING INTO EARLY AFTERNOON.

TODAY...CHALLENGING FORECAST AS LIKELY A 15 TO 20 DEGREE GRADIENT OF
HIGH TEMPERATURES WITH FAR NW HIGHS IN THE UPPER 40S WITH LOTS OF LOW
CLOUDS AND POSSIBLY SOME DRIZZLE. AT THE OTHER END THE SOUTHEAST 1/3
OR MORE OF THE AREA AHEAD OF THE FRONT SHOULD SEE HIGHS INTO THE MID
60S. POPS MAY BE A BIT UNDERDONE ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF A STERLING
TO MUSCATINE TO BURLINGTON LINE IF SHOWERS AND STORMS BLOOM WITH TRIGGER
TEMPERATURE REACHED AROUND 10-11 AM AND LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE IS
STRONGER. ISOLATED ONE QUARTER INCH RAIN AMOUNTS MAY BE POSSIBLE
AHEAD OF THE FRONT.

TONIGHT...CLOUDS TO THICKEN AND AREA OF LIGHT AND COLD RAIN WITH UPPER
LOW PASSAGE FROM MONTANA. RAIN AMOUNTS SHOULD BE LESS THAN A TENTH OF
AN INCH. POPS WITH LOCATION CONFIDENCE CLARIFIED THIS PM WOULD SUGGEST
RAISING POPS FROM CHANCE TO LIKELY IN AFFECTED LOCATIONS. MINS SHOULD
BE IN THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 30S.

.LONG TERM...(FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 310 AM CDT THU MAR 31 2016

THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS THIS PERIOD ARE THE CHANCES OF
PRECIPITATION AS WELL AS THE FROST POTENTIAL FOR THIS WEEKEND.

THERE IS A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED 500 HPA PATTERN ACROSS NORTH AMERICA
THROUGH THE LONG TERM PERIOD WITH A DEEP THROUGH ACROSS THE
EASTERN TWO THIRDS OF NORTH AMERICA AND HIGH PRESSURE ALONG THE
WEST COAST. AS THIS PATTERN SHIFTS EASTWARD...THIS WILL PLACE
EASTERN IOWA...NORTHWEST ILLINOIS...AND NORTHEAST MISSOURI IN THE
TRANSITION ZONE BETWEEN THE TWO SYSTEM. THIS WILL PLACE THE REGION
UNDER DEEP NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT TO START THE PERIOD BUT IT WILL
TRANSITION TO MORE OF A QUASI ZONAL FLOW WITH NUMEROUS SHORTWAVE
TROUGHS THAT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE FLOW AND EFFECT THE FORECAST
AREA EVERY 36 TO 48 HOURS THROUGH THE LONG TERM. PRECIPITATION IS
EXPECTED TO FALL AS MAINLY RAIN AT THIS TIME BUT PRECIPITATION
TYPE THIS WEEKEND MAY DEPEND ON THE TIMING AND PLACEMENT OF THE
SYSTEM. A WAVE WILL PASS TO OUR NORTH SATURDAY MORNING INTO THE
AFTERNOON. FORECAST SOUNDINGS SUGGEST PRECIPITATION WILL FALL AS
SNOW PRIOR TO SUNRISE BEFORE CHANGING OVER TO ALL RAIN.

EASTERN IOWA...AND NORTHWEST ILLINOIS WILL ALSO REMAIN ON THE
WESTERN EDGE OF THE COLDER WITH THE COLDEST AIR MOVING INTO THE
EASTERN GREAT LAKES THIS WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. 850
TEMPERATURES ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY MORNING WILL BE AROUND -6*C WITH
TEMPERATURES BELOW FREEZING AT THE SURFACE. SKIES ARE EXPECTED TO BE
CLEAR TO START ON FRIDAY NIGHT BUT THE WAVE PASSING TO OUR NORTH MAY
SPREAD CLOUDS ACROSS THE REGION WHICH COULD KEEP TEMPERATURES WARMER
WHILE SATURDAY NIGHT SKIES WILL REMAIN CLEAR. THIS MAY SET THE STAGE
FOR FROST TO DEVELOP ON BOTH MORNINGS. TEMPERATURES WILL FLUCTUATE
FROM DAY TO DAY WITH TEMPERATURES BEING NEAR NORMAL ONE DAY AND 10
TO 15 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL THE NEXT AND THIS CONTINUES THROUGH THE
LONG TERM PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z FRIDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 639 AM CDT THU MAR 31 2016

A PASSING COLD FRONT WILL USHER IN LOWER CLOUDS WITH A MIX OF
IFR/MVFR CEILINGS AT ALL THE TERMINALS THROUGH AT LEAST THIS
EVENING. WINDS WILL SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST AT 10 TO 20 KTS WITH
SPOTTY LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS HANDLED AS A TEMPO GROUP UNTIL LATE
MORNING. AFTER 01/03Z...CEILINGS MAY RAISE TO VFR AT BRL. THE
REMAINING 3 TERMINALS SHOULD STAY MOSTLY MVFR WITH A CHANCE OF
LIGHT RAIN AS A WEAK DISTURBANCE PASSES. THE RAIN CHANCES ARE
HANDLED AS VCNTY WORDING AT THE 3 TERMINALS DUE TO LOW CONFIDENCE.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 310 AM CDT THU MAR 31 2016

THE FLOOD ON THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER HAS CRESTED AT BURLINGTON AND
WILL CONTINUE TO TRAVEL SOUTH TODAY. RAINFALL OVER THE NEXT 48 HOURS
IS EXPECTED TO HAVE MINIMAL IMPACT ON THE RIVER STAGES.
