Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Quad Cities IA IL
255 PM CDT Sun Aug 5 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 225 PM CDT Sun Aug 5 2018

At 2 PM CDT, a stream of moisture with convection extended along
and south of a slow moving cold front from Colorado into Northwestern
Illinois. Typical of a late summer southwest monsoon regime. This
is textbook situation for areas of convection with some severe but
more possibly beneficial and locally heavy rainfall the next 24
plus hours with precipital waters at or over 1.75 inches ahead of
this slow moving boundary.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Monday)
ISSUED AT 225 PM CDT Sun Aug 5 2018

Short Term Forecast Confidence Assessment...poor to very poor or
below to well below average. This is a situation that is handled
poorly by all solutions as evidenced by past 18 plus hours.

Low Confidence Reasoning...New convection in NW Iowa just
starting will likely impact northern areas this evening along and
north of I-80. Locally heavy rains with some gusty winds of 40 to
70 mph suggested. Clouds and convection likely underdone with
impacts of lowering highs tomorrow with south displacement of
heavier rainfall possible.to south of I-80 a concern. Areas of 2
plus inches possible and with training of storms may approach 3
plus inches for evening shift to monitor.

Tonight...raised pops and pushed a bit further south with risk mid
to late evening still underdone. Expect vigorous convection to arrive
in the northwest between 7 and 10 PM tonight with some bowing segments
possibly by late evening of near severe to severe winds to or even
above 70 mph. Main concern appears 1 to 2 plus inch rain amounts, especially
along and north of highway with a decent risk along and even south
of I-80 corridor a possibility. Lows in north with heavier rains may
be at least a few degrees cooler with decent cool pools or mid to upper
60s suggested. Minor hydrologic issues are suggested until get to near
3 inch rain totals or sustained rainfall totals over 2 inches in an
hour or less.

Monday...poor confidence in highs with lots of clouds and likely areas
of showers and storms with continuing risk of locally heavy rains across
central and north sections and possibly into south with decent stratifying
precipitation. Areas of 1 to 2 inches continue to seem possible with
some training of storms still a concern. Highs in central and north
easily could be 3 to 5 degrees too high for later shifts to monitor.
Minor hydrologic issues are suggested.

.LONG TERM...(Monday Night through Sunday)
ISSUED AT 225 PM CDT Sun Aug 5 2018

Monday night: Cold front will continue pushing southeast across the
cwa accompanied by scattered to numerous thunderstorms (pops 50-60
percent). Some of these storms may be strong to severe ahead of the
front with decent shear/SBCAPE.

Tuesday through Sunday: Northwest flow looks to keep much of the cwa
dry during this time frame. Little or no rain is expected, at least
nothing significant that I can tell. Temperatures will be normal to
a bit above normal, with highs in the 80s and lows in the 60s.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday Afternoon)
ISSUED AT 1235 PM CDT Sun Aug 5 2018

Generally VFR conditions with fair skies south and VFR partly to
mostly cloudy skies north. Some risk for showers and storms north
of I-80 which is handled as VCTS at DBQ ands CID terminals. Later
shifts may need to add precipiation late in the forecast period
as a slow moving cool front approaches. Winds will be southerly at
5 to 15+ mph except with any convection.
