Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Quad Cities IA IL
314 PM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 312 PM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020

Much of the area was enjoying a pleasant but warm and humid Father's
Day with a mix of clouds and sunshine with very weak high
pressure ridging overhead. KDVN was showing scattered pulse storms
developing across the area with daytime heating pushing us above
our convective temperature (12z sounding convective temp was at 80
F). Storms were moving very slowly with little steering flow
aloft, and were dying out reasonably quickly with little vertical
shear to promote organization. However, the strongest storms were
taking advantage of high instability and steep low-level lapse
rates, with some reports of hail to nickel size and damage to corn
crops received from northern Benton County. Temperatures as of 3
PM were in the lower to middle 80s.

Off to the west, 18z surface analysis showed a cold front beginning
to take shape across the Dakotas south into Nebraska and Kansas.
This front will be the primary focus of our weather impacts for the
short term period.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Monday)
ISSUED AT 312 PM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020

Key Messages:

1) Scattered showers and storms expected through this evening.

2) Decaying complex of showers/storms to move through the area
Monday morning; scattered showers and storms to follow through
midday.

3) Low potential for severe storms mainly east of the Mississippi
River Monday afternoon and evening; damaging winds and large hail
are the primary threats.

Discussion.

This Evening through Midnight...

Expected scattered showers and storms to persist through the evening
before coverage wanes by sunset. Storms will mainly be wind and hail
producers with a buoyant atmosphere (SBCAPEs of 2500-3500 J/kg),
steep low-level lapse rates and dry air aloft (leading to DCAPES
near 1000 J/kg). With little steering flow aloft, storms will also
be quick to dump torrential rainfall. Given that these storms aren't
lasting too long, shear is not availible for storm organization and
that soils are mainly dry, the threat of seeing flash flooding is
low.

Quiet conditions will follow for the rest of the evening, with
temperatures falling into the upper 60s to low 70s by midnight.

Midnight through Midday Monday...

Attention will quickly turn to the west as showers and storms that
fire from north central Iowa to eastern Nebraska ahead of the cold
front quickly congeal from cold pool processes and a 25-40 kt LLJ
into an MCS early tonight. Initial upwind prorogation vectors from
the west will eventually switch to the northwest, allowing the
complex to progress into our area around midnight. Potential exists
for strong winds, possibly severe, with the complex as it initially
rolls in as storms take advantage of the still steep low-level lapse
rates to allow momentum transfer. Should the complex become outflow
dominant, then the severe threat will decrease and become more of a
heavy rain producer. A marginal risk of severe weather remains in
place across our far northwest CWA from SPC, while a marginal risk
of excessive rainfall is in place across the western CWA from WPC.

The MCS should arrive at the Mississippi River around 3-5 AM, and
should be on a weakening trend as we lose moisture convergence and
the LLJ. Despite that, additional weak impulses rotating around a
500 hPa low centered just north of Lake Superior will keep the
threat of scattered showers and storms through midday.

Monday Afternoon and Evening...

Cold front will be approaching the area from the west, and is
progged to be just west of the Mississippi River around 18z. A
stronger shortwave ejecting out of the upper level low will quickly
move into northern Missouri and interact with the front, leading to
development of more showers and storms along the front and in the
warm sector out ahead of it. Severe potential is uncertain given the
progressive nature of the front and uncertainty in how much the
atmosphere will recover from morning convection. The main threats,
should severe storms develop, will be damaging winds and large hail
with steepening low and mid level lapse rates with the shortwave.
SPC maintains a marginal risk of severe storms for the area.

The front will pass across the region during the evening, taking all
showers and storms further into north central Illinois by midnight.
Expect quiet conditions for the remainder of the night, with
overnight lows falling into the upper 50s to low 60s.

.LONG TERM...(Monday Night through Sunday)
ISSUED AT 312 PM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020

Key Messages:

1) Cooler temperatures for mid week with diurnal rain showers
possible.

2) Warmer temperatures and chances for showers and storms return by
the end of the week.

Discussion.

Tuesday through Thursday...

High pressure building into the Great Plains and Mississippi River
Valley will usher in cooler temperatures across the area. Afternoon
highs during this period will be in the mid to upper 70s with more
comfortable dew points in the 50s.

The 500 hPa upper level low will continue to rotate around the upper
Great Lakes through this period before progressing into northern
Ontario by Friday. As it does so, several weak shortwave impulses
will eject out of it into the Midwest, which may drive some diurnal
rain showers and isolated thunderstorms. Severe weather is not
expected.

Thursday Night on...

Warm front progged to move north across Iowa and Illinois, bringing
back southerly flow, chances of showers/storms and a return of heat
and humidity to the area to close out the work week. Highs look to
climb back into the upper 80s by the weekend.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday Afternoon)
ISSUED AT 1216 PM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020

Developing CU across the area right now should remain scattered,
with predominantly VFR condtions at all terminals for the next 24
hours. There is a slight chance of a shower or storm across the area
this afternoon and evening, but the main concern arrives later
tonight/Monday morning as guidance shows a complex of thunderstorms
moving across the area. Sites most likely to see impacts are
KCID/KDBQ, where drops to MVFR visibilities and ceilings are likely.
Threat will be decreasing towards KMLI/KBRL as storms decay by 10z-
12z. A cold front will be approaching the area from the northwest
late Monday morning, which looks to bring MVFR ceilings to KCID
around 22/18z. However, guidance remains in disagreement on timing
so have left mention out of this TAF.

448 AM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for portions of north central
Illinois...northwest Illinois...west central Illinois...east
central Iowa...northeast Iowa...southeast Iowa and northeast
Missouri.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

Isolated to scattered thunderstorms will develop this afternoon
across portions of the Outlook Area. While widespread severe
weather is not expected with this afternoon activity, a stronger
storm cell may be able to produce gusty winds and hail up to dime
size. Frequent cloud to ground lightning and locally heavy
downpours will also occur with afternoon thunderstorms.

Later tonight there will be the chance for a larger area of
thunderstorms moving down into the area from the northwest. Again,
at this time widespread severe weather is not expected. But there
may be a chance for a stronger segment of storms to produce gusty
winds and heavy rainfall that may lead to flooding.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY

Thunderstorms are expected on Monday and Monday evening. At this
time severe storms are not anticipated, but stronger storms could
produce gusty winds, small hail, and heavy rain.

Storms will be possible later in the week, but it is too early to
assess any potential for severe weather.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

There is a low chance that spotter activation will be needed today
and tonight.
