Area forecast discussion, May 21, 6:32 PM CDT, 1 hour 17 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Des Moines IA 632 PM CDT Sun May 21 2017 .SHORT TERM.../Tonight through Monday/ Issued at 339 PM CDT Sun May 21 2017 Cyclonic flow will be subsiding this evening with stratus deck eroding away this evening. Weak surface ridging will slide through central Iowa during the later half of the evening as warm advection begins overnight. This is in response to a shortwave dropping southeast into the region on the backside of the large upper closed circulation. Therefore, while daytime highs today were very cool, overnight temperatures are not expected to drop considerably as the warm advection and southwest winds increase later tonight. In addition, some mid and high clouds are expected to arrive toward daybreak in advance of the system. Theta-e advection increases into southern Iowa by Monday morning with the threat of scattered showers in southern Iowa as the moisture returns. This moisture will continue to spread northward during the day in advance of the surface low with instability increasing through the afternoon. Scattered showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop ahead of the frontal boundary by afternoon in northwest Iowa and move quickly eastward. Given relatively low freezing levels and inverted-V soundings, both large hail and some strong winds will be possible with any of the stronger cells. Limiting factor will be amount of instability available to the storms as moisture as a whole is not overly robust. Temperatures will be warmer on Monday with a thermal ridge quickly moving back into the state as southwest winds increase late tonight into tomorrow. .LONG TERM.../Monday night through Sunday/ Issued at 339 PM CDT Sun May 21 2017 The cold front will continue to cross the forecast area Monday evening and current trends keep it in the southeast through much of the overnight as well. Instability albeit weak wanes fairly quickly through the evening so the chance for thunderstorms will quickly diminish by mid evening. Showers will persist through much of the night however. On Tuesday the upper a second upper low finally drops south across Iowa keeping the precip going and instability returns across the east in the afternoon. I have slight chance/isolated pops going but colder air is in place by then and don't see much in the way of convection. Isolated covers it about right. Not much change in the extended with Wednesday and Thursday mainly dry. I did keep slight chances going Wednesday far south because models hint that a lobe will pivot around the upper low now in IL and this may produce enough forcing to pop some isolated showers. On Friday the next large upper low drops in to the northern Plains and breaks down the ridge up the region as well as pushing it East now. This may bring some showers/storms to the area as earl y as Thursday night through Friday. As that low takes it's time pivoting across the region, it will keep chances for showers and storms going over the forecast area through the holiday weekend but temperatures && .AVIATION.../For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday evening/ Issued at 632 PM CDT Sun May 21 2017 Cigs will gradually diminishing this evening and all sites become VFR. Winds will diminish this evening and become more southwesterly. Scattered showers and thunderstorms can be expected during the day on Monday. The wind is expected to remain from the southwest through the day Monday. && .DMX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. && SHORT TERM...Cogil LONG TERM...FAB AVIATION...Donavon
