Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Quad Cities IA IL
546 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2020

...12z AVIATION UPDATE...

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 218 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2020

KDVN radar showed a complex of showers and thunderstorms stretching
from just north of the Des Moines metro into northeast Iowa and
southern Wisconsin early this morning, which was all forming along a
front stretched across the same area. Earlier, this front helped
spawn numerous severe thunderstorms from southern Minnesota all the
way towards Michigan, which were responsible for several reports of
damaging wind gusts, large hail and a few tornadoes. Only heavy rain
was falling from these storms now as they have taken more of an
elevated nature due to the LLJ with the slow southward progression
of the front. Temperatures across the area as of 2 AM ranged from 67
in Dubuque to 77 in Muscatine.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
ISSUED AT 218 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2020

Key Messages:

1) Shower and storms chances will decrease this morning; will
increase again south of I-80 late this afternoon and evening.

2) Some storms this evening may be strong to severe; large hail and
damaging wind gusts are the primary threats.

3) Cooler, but still warm temperatures are expected today.

Discussion.

Showers and scattered storms will persist over the next few hours as
the front continues to slowly move across the area. By mid-morning,
coverage should briefly wane as forcing from the LLJ against the
front weakens, which should give us a break in precipitation through
the early afternoon. Skies will initially feature broken cloud
cover, but should being to clear across portions of eastern Iowa by
midday as northwest winds help dry air build in aloft.

By early afternoon, the front is expected to be south of I-80. At
that time, instability should increase with steepening mid-level
lapse rates ahead of a weak shortwave impulse that will eject out of
the Great Plains. This shortwave will interact with the front and
help spawn another round of scattered showers and storms by mid-
afternoon due to increased convergence. Some of these storms that
develop will have the potential to become strong to severe as they
take advantage of a buoyant atmosphere with instability progged
around 2000-3000 J/kg. That, combined with fcst soundings showing
low-level inverted V profiles and dry air aloft would favor storms
capable of producing damaging wind gusts and large hail.

Temperatures will not be as warm across the entire area compared to
yesterday with the passage of the front, with afternoon highs
generally in the mid 80s. It will feel much warmer generally along
and south of Highway 34 where convergence ahead of the front may
promote pooling of dewpoints near to just above 70 (we saw that up
in southwest to central Wisconsin yesterday). Heat indices there
will be in the low 90s by early afternoon.

Precipitation chances will wane by the evening as the front takes
storms further into Missouri and southern Illinois. Much of the
period will be dry, but storms exiting the Plains may have the
potential to impact parts of southeast Iowa and northeast Missouri
towards Thursday morning. For now, only have a chance of POPs.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday through Tuesday)
ISSUED AT 218 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2020

Thunderstorm chances will be found in our forecast in many of the
upcoming days of the week. However, there is no strong signal for
any day to be favored for widespread coverage of storms. If
anything, the forecast probably will be lowering pops for much of
the period as it approaches.

Heat will be generally warm and humid through the period but not
near any advisory level (100 + Heat Index).

Thursday, the front will lift north of the area once again, and with
that, a low chance for storms will exist.  However, there's little
focus for storms on this period, with the next short wave in the mid
levels expected Thursday night. Thursday night, storms in central
and northern Iowa may be able to move southeast into the area, but
again, there's not a strong convergence of LLJ into the region, and
the location of any thunderstorm cluster is not confident.

The upper ridge will build in and center itself over our area
Saturday through Sunday, possibly through Monday. During this
period, dry conditions are now forecast with plenty of sunshine and
seasonal temperatures in the lower to mid 80s (upper 80s Monday).

The upper ridge is expected to break down as a deep upper trof
advancing through the plains shifts toward the area. This trof could
lift the remnants of Cristobal into the upper Midwest. As to where
the exact remnants of Cristobal go, it's too far our to have any
confidence in the model blended crystal ball which now has moderate
chance pops for Tuesday into Wednesday.

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday Morning)
ISSUED AT 545 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2020

A weak cold front will bring a line of showers and storms across the
area this morning, with torrential rain, lightning and MVFR
visibilities the primary threats. This is forecast to impact
KCID/KMLI before weakening as the low-level jet wanes through the
late morning. Conditions should turn dry before additional
showers and storms develop later this afternoon, mainly near KBRL.
Have handled this potential with a PROB30 group at this time as
confidence is low on a direct impact to the terminal. High
pressure will follow for tonight with light and variable winds,
which may lead to patchy fog across the area.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 218 AM CDT Wed Jun 3 2020

Flood warnings continue at Marengo on the Iowa River, DeWitt on
the Wapsipinicon, and Conesville on the Cedar. Confidence is low
on DeWitt reaching 12.3 ft which is the current forecast.
Attenuation of the routed flow may result in a lower crest within
the Moderate flood category.

New flood warnings were issued along the the Mississippi River at
Burlington and Gladstone yesterday with the added flow coming in
from the Iowa River.

Scattered thunderstorms this week may lead to localized heavy
rainfall, but at this time widespread heavy rain is not
anticipated. This is good news for area river levels as we head
through the upcoming weekend.
