Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service La Crosse WI
652 PM CDT Thu Jun 29 2017

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday night)
Issued at 305 PM CDT Thu Jun 29 2017

Early this afternoon a weak surface boundary extended from northern
Iowa through southern Wisconsin. Extensive anvil blow-off from
convection across Missouri has somewhat limited diurnal
destabilization south of the front but MLCAPE has been rising into
the 1000-2000 J/kg range south of the front. Surface analysis
suggests some low-level convergence over northern Iowa near the
front/outflow boundary within the instability axis with some
convection beginning to fire in this area. High-res models do
indicate this area as the focus for continued convective
development this afternoon. This convection may extend into
northeast Iowa and southwest Wisconsin. Low-level wind fields are
very weak with some slight increase in deep layer wind fields by
late today, allowing deep layer shear to reach 30-35 kts early
this evening. Some hail/gusty winds/brief heavy rains are possible
across northeast IA/southwest WI if any storms form.

This evening a shortwave trough currently evident on water vapor
imagery over South Dakota will move eastward towards the region.
High-res models generally indicate convection firing in
western Iowa and eastern Nebraska late today and spreading
eastward this evening. Model solutions have shown some variability
on the placement of this convection through the evening, but these
storms may approach from the west later this evening. Unless
storms grow upscale into a more organized complex, would expect
any storms to be weakening. Showers and a few storms will remain
possible overnight into Friday morning as upper shortwave trough
advances across the area.

The shortwave will drag the front east of the area on Friday with
broad upper troughing developing over the Upper Midwest. Behind the
departing wave, additional diurnally driven showers/storms are
possible during the afternoon/evening associated with weak upper
shortwaves within the broader troughing. CAPE could rise into the
1000-2000 J/kg rise with the drier push of air not arriving until
Saturday. However, deep layer shear will be weakening, limiting a
severe threat, with mainly pulse type storms expected. Temps will
remain a bit below average with highs mainly in the 70s to near
80. Showers/storms should diminish with loss of heating during the
evening.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday)
Issued at 305 PM CDT Thu Jun 29 2017

Northwest flow aloft will persist through the weekend with a few
upper shortwave troughs rotating through over the region. Surface
high pressure will be building into the area on Saturday. A few
showers/storms are possible. especially over north-central
Wisconsin, but with weak instability and just subtle forcing from
any weak impulses, any showers should remain isolated.

A stronger upper wave dropping into the northern Great Lakes will
help drive a cold front south on Sunday. 29.12Z models indicate a
corridor of higher MLCAPE of 1000-2500 J/kg extending from the
central plains northeastward ahead of the front with around 40 kts
of deep shear by Sunday afternoon/evening. This could provide a
better opportunity of scattered storms, especially across the
southern half of the area, and will be a time worth watching
heading into the weekend.

For much of next week upper ridging is expected to gradually build
eastward into the Midwest. This should result in temps near
seasonal averages gradually warming towards the end of the week.
Despite the developing upper ridge, 29.12Z models indicate the
potential for an upper shortwave trough to undercut the developing
longwave ridge somewhere across the Midwest, serving as a focus
for precipitation. Confidence is quite low on this evolution at
this time, and will only mention some low rain chances at this
point.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday evening)
Issued at 652 PM CDT Thu Jun 29 2017

Watching an area of showers and storms over northwest Iowa that
is ahead of a short wave trough moving across southern South
Dakota. This wave is shown by both the 29.21Z RAP and 29.18Z NAM
to continue moving east but weaken as it does. This trend is also
reflected by the 29.21Z HRRR which brings the convection east and
then rapidly weakens it east of Interstate 35 with just some
showers possibly reaching the forecast sites around midnight. For
now, will handle this with a VCSH for both airports and update if
the activity looks to be stronger as it comes in. Otherwise, VFR
conditions expected with a mid level ceiling expected through the
period. This should preclude any fog formation overnight despite
having plenty of low level moisture and light winds.

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 305 PM CDT Thu Jun 29 2017

River flood warnings continue along the Turkey River near Elkader
and Garber following yesterday's heavy rains. The crest has occurred
along the Turkey at Elkader while downstream near Garber the river
is near its crest just below moderate flood stage. Falling stages
are expected to continue. Scattered showers and storms are possible
at times late today into Friday with brief heavy rainfall possible
with any storms. However, widespread heavy rainfall is unlikely.
