Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Quad Cities IA IL 1243 AM CDT Wed Apr 10 2019 ...AVIATION UPDATE... .UPDATE... Issued at 931 PM CDT Tue Apr 9 2019 Nudging main axis of PoPs and QPF a bit further SSW (mainly along/sw of line from Independence IA to Sterling-Rock Falls,IL or fairly close to current radar depiction), as mid level FGen band is shown to remain pretty steady through much of overnight before lifting northward Wed AM. && .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 313 PM CDT Tue Apr 9 2019 It's been another nice spring day with warm temps into the 60s and low humidity. A mid-level trough was located over Lake Superior and its associated surface low was to the south over central Lake Michigan. The low will drag a cold front through eastern Iowa and northwest Illinois this evening and tonight. Behind the front, the air mass will become noticeably cooler with increasing NE winds. There is a large reservoir of cold air over the Northern Great Lakes into central Canada. In far northern Wisconsin, afternoon temps are only near 32 F. In parts of Ontario, it's only in the 20s. && .SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Wednesday Night) ISSUED AT 313 PM CDT Tue Apr 9 2019 Tonight through Wednesday Night The cold front moving southward into Iowa and Illinois tonight will weaken, eventually becoming absorbed into a developing warm front across the central Plains, as rapid cyclogenesis commences in eastern Colorado and western Kansas. For our area, rain chances increase quickly between 9 PM and midnight as the eastern zone of an elevated warm front streaks in from the west. There is some uncertainty on exact placement with this band of precip because it will be relatively narrow as it steadily moves to the ENE. The favored location for appreciable rainfall is over the northeast third of the forecast area, and accordingly, have the highest chances (80-90%+) in the far north and northeast. Mid-level omega signals are strong due to robust isentropic lift and frontogenetic response on the nose of a southwest 850-700mb wind field. PWATs surging to near 1" will support heavy downpours with rain amounts of 0.50- 1.50"+ possible by Wednesday evening. Mesoscale banding would likely be needed to realize the higher amounts near or over 1.50 inches; these amounts are not expected to be widespread. Top-down thermal profiles suggest rain as the dominant precip type, at least initially, even in the far north. Then a period of a mix or snow is possible along the highway 20 corridor late tonight into early Wednesday morning, mostly NE of Dubuque to Freeport. If it snows/sleets heavily for a few hours, slushy accumulations are possible on grassy or elevated surfaces before the precip changes back to all rain. Another impact on Wednesday will be strong east winds responding to the 980mb low shifting into Kansas. Expecting gusts of 35 to 40 mph through the day. The pressure gradient and ESE low- level jet will increase Wednesday evening, which will likely coincide with our period of highest gusts. We could be looking at 40- 45 mph and later shifts may have to consider a Wind Advisory. Still enough time to re-evaluate new model data tonight before making the call on a headline. Uttech .LONG TERM...(Wednesday Night through Tuesday) ISSUED AT 313 PM CDT Tue Apr 9 2019 Thursday Dry slot overspreads the area as the warm front shifts northward to at least the I-80 corridor. This warm surge will push highs into the 60s south of highway 30, and even lower 70s in the far south. Scattered dry slot convection is possible along the occluding front during the mid morning through the afternoon. A balance of low-level shear and surface-based instability could lead to a few severe storms. The latest outlook from the Storm Prediction Center is for a Marginal Risk in the far east -- mainly Bureau and Putnam Counties. Of course, there is plenty of time for this threat area to shift. Stay tuned. Thursday Night On The wind returns Thursday night through Friday, but this time out of the southwest as the low departs and tracks over Lake Superior. Gusts on Friday may peak around 40 mph. Yet another upper trough may bring widespread precip to parts of the Midwest or Great Lakes during the second half of the upcoming weekend. The track of the low is far from certain, which will be critical for determining precip type. Right now, have a rain/snow mix in the grids. Uttech && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday Night) ISSUED AT 1240 AM CDT Wed Apr 10 2019 Initially, VFR conditions are in place, but with a band of rain stretching from north central Iowa to near Moline Illinois overnight, visibilities and cigs will both lower to MVFR levels by early Wednesday. Winds will increase through the night, and by mid morning will be easterly around 20 kts, gusting up to 35 kts. This strong wind will be in place through Wednesday night, but the rains are expected to lift north of the entire area by late morning Wednesday. Thus, cold windy, MVFR weather is anticipated through the day, followed by lowering cigs to IFR Wednesday evening and overnight. ERVIN && .HYDROLOGY... Issued at 1000 PM CDT Tue Apr 9 2019 A moderate to heavy rainfall and snow event still looks to be on track for much of the rest of the week. The current forecast through Friday has around 1.5 to 2.5 inches of rain falling to our north across much of the upper Mississippi basin. Closer to our area, anywhere from a quarter of an inch in the far south to 1.5 to 2 inches are possible across the highway 20 corridor from this strong system. Another round of river forecasts this evening utilizing 72 hours of QPF, so most of the rain is included in the forecasts for the rivers. As far as the tribs go, many of them begin to see rises as the heavy rain and snow melt up north eventually routes through the system. The sites that see these eventual renewed rises do not have the crest in the forecast through day 7 at this time. How high past this point and if they reach or surpass the flood stage is still uncertain. This will be driven by where and how much rain/snow falls. The latest forecasts this evening have rises toward the flood stage by late next Tuesday at several sites on the upper Cedar River including Cedar Rapids, as well as on the Iowa and Wapsipinicon. The Rock on the Illinois side will see rises early next week as well. The Mississippi River will see somewhat similar additional rises toward and after day 7, with the river rising after the next round of snow melt-induced run-off routs downstream from the north. How high this second crest is, is highly dependent on how much rain/snow falls and where it falls through this event. What is certain is that the ongoing river level falls behind the passing current snow melt crest will slow then steady out, with rises starting again late in the period. && .DVN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...

The main threat will be lightning. Area rivers are experiencing flooding. Please see the latest Flood Statements and Flood Warnings for details. The Mississippi River is near crest this morning from near the Quad Cities through New Boston. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY An intense large storm system will move through the Midwest Friday. This system will bring strong winds and heavy rain to portions of Iowa and northern Illinois. A wintry mix of rain, sleet and snow will even be possible Wednesday along the Illinois Highway 20 corridor. There will be a chance for thunderstorms at times from Wednesday night through Thursday, and some may be strong Thursday afternoon and evening. In addition, strong east winds gusting to 40 MPH will be possible at times from Wednesday through Thursday. The main threat from this intense spring storm system will be several rounds of heavy rainfall across the area accumulated over Wednesday through Thursday night. Early indications suggest areas north of the Interstate 80 corridor will have the best chance of receiving significant rainfall amounts during this period. It is still too early to determine exact impacts to area rivers, but potential rises on tributary rivers, as well as localized run-off affecting the main stem Mississippi River will need to be monitored. Please stay tuned to the latest river flood statements and forecasts. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation will not be needed tonight.
