Area forecast discussion, Apr 10, 3:43 AM CDT, 2 hours 2 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Quad Cities IA IL 343 AM CDT Mon Apr 10 2017 .SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight) ISSUED AT 322 AM CDT Mon Apr 10 2017 Will keep discussion short this morning with active weather ongoing. The main forecast issues are convective trends/ intensity/coverage in the near term and again this afternoon. Isolated large hail and strong wind gusts will continue during the early morning hours. Steep mid level lapse rates and MU CAPE over 2000 j/kg are supporting strong updrafts with isolated hail around golfball size. High resolution models indicate the convection will push east of the area after 7 am. Late this morning and afternoon, showers and storms are expected to fire along a cold front in eastern Iowa, then progress eastward through early evening. Steep mid level lapse rates and sufficient cape/shear point to more isolated large hail, especially along and east of the Mississippi River. Bufr forecast soundings also indicate steep low level lapse rates for a localized strong wind threat. Any lingering storms will end along the U.S. Highway 20 corridor by late evening. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday) ISSUED AT 322 AM CDT Mon Apr 10 2017 The long term period will feature some periods of active weather with mainly above normal high temperatures in the 60s to low 70s. The first window for showers and storms will be Wednesday night into Thursday. Additional rounds of showers and thunderstorms are forecast for Friday into Saturday, and possibly again on Sunday. No significant hydro issues are expected for the rain through Thursday, but there is some potential for widespread heavy rain late this week. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Monday Night) ISSUED AT 1141 PM CDT Sun Apr 9 2017 Generally VFR conditions with isolated storms and showers between 10/07Z and 10/10Z at MLI/BRL terminals are handled with tempo group of possible brief high end MVFR conditions. South winds of 10 to 20+ MPH with low level wind shear will shift to the west by 10/10Z with 10 to 20+ MPH gusts by late morning into the afternoon. There is a chance of showers and storms to redevelop Monday PM at MLI/BRL terminals which is handled as vicinity wording. && .DVN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... IA...NONE. IL...NONE. MO...NONE. && SHORT TERM...RP Kinney LONG TERM...RP Kinney AVIATION...Nichols
