...AVIATION UPDATE...

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 348 AM CDT Thu Apr 6 2017

The back edge of the light rain behind the departing storm system
has exited the far east early this morning. In its wake, high
level clouds lingered on over the area under the large upper
level trough. At the surface, brisk northwest winds continued to
diminish while temperatures were holding mainly in the lower 40s.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
ISSUED AT 348 AM CDT Thu Apr 6 2017

Main challenges are centered on temperatures as the strong upper
trough progresses eastward, replacing the low level cyclonic flow
with an incoming ridge late tonight. Skies will start out initially
overcast under thin high clouds, which have a back edge on satellite
imagery over western IA. As the upper trough continues eastward,
current timing of this cloud edge has it advancing into eastern IA
by mid morning. While these clouds are optically thin and will
likely continue to decrease, stratocu will likely develop with the
sunlight on the moist ground and steep low level lapse rates,
leading to considerable cloud cover through much of the day. This,
combined with at least weak low level cold air advection on
northwest winds of 15 to 25 mph will limit highs to around 50
northeast to the mid 50s in the far south.

Tonight, skies will likely clear out in the evening as the upper
flow becomes anticyclonic and the surface ridge advances from the
plains. This should lead to seasonably cold temperatures from the
upper 20s north to lower 30s south, close to a guidance blend. The
position of the ridge axis, shown just west of the forecast area at
12z suggests northwest winds should stay just high enough to save
temperatures from dropping much colder.

.LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday)
ISSUED AT 348 AM CDT Thu Apr 6 2017

Friday and Saturday:

Significant positive 1000-500mb thickness advection is forecast
through Friday and Saturday as a mid/upper-level pressure ridge
builds into the Midwest. Sfc temps will respond, reaching near
normal on Friday, then above normal for Saturday. South winds will
strengthen on Saturday with 20-30 mph gusts. No precipitation is
forecast either day.

Sunday:

Breezy south winds continue into Sunday leading to increasing low-
level moisture and dewpoints rising into the upper 50s to lower 60s.

Thicknesses are forecast to peak near 570 dam and 850mb temps
between 13-15 C. The ECMWF and CMC are showing mid to upper 70s for
highs. Our current forecast is a little cooler, but how warm we get
will depend on cloud cover which is hard to predict when convection
is possible in western Iowa during the afternoon.

Sunday Evening through Monday:

There is a chance for showers and thunderstorms ahead of an
approaching cold front Sunday evening and night, possibly a second
round on Monday. Will not get too much into the details this far
out, but shear and instability parameters are showing the potential
for strong or severe storms. Confidence on timing and areal coverage
is low because models are not in agreement.

Tuesday and Wednesday:

Temps will cool off behind the cold front. Aside from a slight
chance for showers on Tuesday, this will be a quiet few days. Uttech

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Friday Morning)
ISSUED AT 623 AM CDT Thu Apr 6 2017

Gusty northwest from 15 to 25 kts will develop this morning, then
decrease by late afternoon as a ridge of high pressure moves
toward the region. Conditions will remain VFR with initial high
overcast giving way to a developing deck of stratocumulus above
4000 ft agl. Tonight will see mostly clear skies and winds
diminishing to less than 10 kts after midnight.

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 949 PM CDT Wed Apr 5 2017

I have issued a few new flood warnings for minor flooding on the
tributary rivers of Wapsipinicon, Iowa, English, and Skunk.
These are all due to the roughly 1 inch qpf run off that is
occurring from the past 24 hour rains and already wet pattern.
The Mississippi will be kept as a watch as the rise is only
flirting with flood stage several days from now and any lowering
would result in a non flood event.
