636 PM CDT Tue May 26 2020

...00z AVIATION UPDATE...

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 235 PM CDT Tue May 26 2020

Strong low level flow from the southeast is paired with warm and
humid air over the region east of a surface low in southwest Iowa is
bringing another day of fast moving, strong to severe storms.  Shear
values are more favorable for low level rotation in the far western
CWA as well as central Iowa.  Farther east, we are very much
unstable, but less sheared, and this should result in more isolated
coverage and threats more limited to isolated downburst winds.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Wednesday)
ISSUED AT 235 PM CDT Tue May 26 2020

Fast moving storms today with downburst winds bring the primary
threat!

Storms today are much faster moving, and organized loosely into
spiral bands. This will result in very narrow swaths of training
through this evening, likely in eastern Iowa. CAPE values should
continue to be in the 1000 to 2000 J/KG through early evening, and
with stronger southerly flow, outflow boundaries will be less of
a player than yesterday. Tonight, coverage will both shift north
and decrease.

Tomorrow is similar, through with less strong winds aloft will bring
another day of scattered storms. This could bring severe storms
along the convergent line which will be closer to the CWA at
Wednesday. Any slower moving storms would be likely to bring heavy
rainfall amounts over 2 inches in a short period.

ERVIN

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday Night through Tuesday)
ISSUED AT 235 PM CDT Tue May 26 2020

The stretch of warm, unsettled weather will come to an Thursday
night as the upper trough and associated surface boundary advance
eastward. The NW flow that follows over the weekend will bring a
sharp change to dry weather and below normal temperatures, before
much warmer temperatures and chances for showers and thunderstorms
return next week.

Wednesday night through Thursday: Environment will be favorable for
scattered showers and thunderstorms, becoming more focused as the
surface trough pushes through late Thursday. The main threat will be
heavy rainfall and an increasing risk for flash flooding due to the
cumulative effect of consecutive days of at least localized heavy
rainfall. There will also be at least a low risk for damaging
winds from stronger storms. With the likelihood for more
widespread clouds, Thursday's highs will be limited to the 70s.

A northwest flow and surface high that follows will return highs to
the 70s over the weekend with overall dry weather. Rising heights
and advancing upper ridge will then bring a warming trend going into
next week.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday Evening)
ISSUED AT 635 PM CDT Tue May 26 2020

Outside of thunderstorms, VFR condtions and gusty winds are
expected for all terminals with several outflow boundaries moving
across the area. These should dissipate this evening, leading to
subsiding winds. At CID/BRL, there is a chance of CIGs lowering to
MVFR as low pressure circulating over western Missouri/eastern
Kansas advects moisture into the area. I have only SCT MVFR CIGS for
now as guidance is not handling cloud evolutions near the low
very well right now, but these will be better defined by the 06z
TAFs. Tomorrow afternoon, another round of scattered thunderstorms
will be possible for all TAF sites, but I have not included
mention in the current TAFs due to low confidence on storm
placement.
