...A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 730 AM CDT
FOR SOUTHERN GUTHRIE AND ADAIR COUNTIES...

At 712 AM CDT, a severe thunderstorm was located 8 miles west of
Stuart, or 12 miles south of Guthrie Center, moving northeast at 55
mph.

HAZARD...60 mph wind gusts and quarter size hail. 

SOURCE...Radar indicated. 

IMPACT...Hail damage to vehicles is expected. Expect wind damage to 
         roofs, siding, and trees. 

Locations impacted include...
Greenfield, Guthrie Center, Stuart, Panora, Adair, Fontanelle,
Dexter, Casey, Diamondhead Lake, Menlo, Bridgewater, Greenfield
Municipal Airport and Nodaway Park.

This includes Interstate 80 between mile markers 73 and 97.
 
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

For your protection move to an interior room on the lowest floor of a
building.

Continuous cloud to ground lightning is occurring with this storm.
Move indoors immediately. Lightning is one of nature's leading
killers. Remember, if you can hear thunder, you are close enough to
be struck by lightning.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
347 AM CDT Wed Jun 14 2017

.SHORT TERM.../Today through Tonight/
Issued at 346 AM CDT Wed Jun 14 2017

Complex of storms stretching across the CWA from north to south
should continue to slowly push east northeast through the early
morning hours as an impulse evident on water vapor imagery lifts
northeast through central KS/eastern NE. Expect a dry period around
late morning to early afternoon for much of the area, with
redevelopment along the sfc trough axis possible by mid/late
afternoon which should be situated across eastern MN into
central/eastern IA. However boundary and sfc low to fill some and
wash out as it moves east and the upper level parent trough lifts
into south central Canada. Therefore expect overall storm coverage
and chance of severe to be somewhat limited given the limited
convergence in the area of the boundary and generally better
dynamics off to the north/east of the area. Second issue with
redevelopment will be how fast clouds/activity clears this am and
how much recovery can be obtained by peak heating. Therefore a
better chance for storms to the east of the area as well, as it may
take some time before redevelopment with the possibility of the
boundary having pushed east of the area by the time storms develop.

As for temperatures today, have gone with temps a little bit lower
than previously expected with the storms/clouds around this AM.
Still should see temps top out in the mid to upper 80s. Even though
dewpoints remain in the upper 60s to around 70 the slightly cooler
temps in the 80s should keep heat index values in check around 90.

.LONG TERM.../Thursday through Tuesday/
Issued at 346 AM CDT Wed Jun 14 2017

There is little change in overall forecast thinking for the long
term period tonight. The weak surface trough moving across Iowa
tonight will briefly scour out clouds and storms, however, it is
more of a wind shift with a barely detectable temperature gradient
and behind it we will reside in weak and nebulous surface flow
beneath brisk zonal flow aloft. This means temperatures will
remain warm on Thursday, probably in the upper 80s and lower 90s,
and any subtle impulse traveling through the zonal flow will be
sufficient to kick off additional convection. There has been a
relatively consistent signal among the various prognostic models
for such an impulse moving across the forecast area around
Thursday night, with a concurrent round of storms. Instability and
deep-layer shear will be sufficient to justify a risk of severe
weather, however, the timing, much less area, of any such threat
remain very uncertain. The best that can be said is that, given
the predicted instability gradient, severe storms are somewhat
more likely across the southern half of the forecast area than the
northern half, but even this is pretty low confidence. This is
well- expressed in the SPC Marginal Risk outlook for
Thursday/Thursday night.

Successive shortwaves moving through the zonal flow aloft will
result in repeat episodes of the Thursday night scenario on both
Friday night and Saturday night. Oddly, the strength and thus
forecast confidence of each of the three systems increases heading
into the future. For the second wave, the first being Thursday
night, there is general consensus that initial convective
development will occur somewhere over eastern Nebraska around
Friday evening, with rapid upscale eastward growth into one or
more convective complexes. The GFS and NAM solutions have been
showing a "splitsville" scenario, with some rain moving across
northern Iowa associated with the stronger forcing near the mid-
level shortwave, while apparently stronger storms dive southeast
across southern Iowa into the much higher instability. While it is
difficult to pin our hopes on such details on day 3-4, this does
fit with climatological expectations and is a distinct
possibility.

The third and strongest system will move very quickly across the
region from Saturday afternoon into Saturday night. Early
indications are that instability may be somewhat limited during
this time frame due to two days of convective overturning and
limited return flow. However, the lift and shear with this last
wave are much stronger and certainly favor some severe weather
threat once again, potentially for the fourth or fifth
consecutive day/night this week. If the instability is sufficient
for organized updrafts, which is certainly not a guarantee, then
the most likely convective scenario would be a forward-propagating
squall line with attendant wind threat.

All in all the period from Thursday through Saturday appears warm,
but not as hot as earlier in the week, and with multiple periods
of thunderstorm and severe weather chances. After the last,
strongest wave late Saturday we will be scoured out with
northwesterly flow aloft and significantly cooler and quieter
weather from Sunday through Tuesday.

.AVIATION.../For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday night/
Issued at 1214 AM CDT Wed Jun 14 2017

The primary concern remains convective trends through the period.
Scattered storms entered western IA this evening and produced
outflow which will flip some TAF sites to west with some gusts for
a period. After that wind confidence is low with chaotic flow.
Cannot rule out lower conditions, but have kept TAFs VFR until
conditions dictate otherwise. Similarly have only mentioned
thunder based on near term terms with more generic VCSH later this
morning and again east in the afternoon when additional storms
could develop.
