Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Quad Cities IA IL
1230 PM CDT Tue Aug 10 2021

...AVIATION UPDATE...

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 219 AM CDT Tue Aug 10 2021

A wind shift boundary was draped across Iowa and Illinois early
this morning with the front roughly north of a line from KFFL to
KGBG. South of the boundary winds were out of the south while to
the north they were easterly. Dewpoints south of the front were in
the upper 70s to near 80 while to the north they were in the
lower 70s. Skies are clearing out as shortwave ridging builds into
the area. Temperatures at 2 AM ranged from 69 degrees at Dubuque
to 81 degrees at Fort Madison.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
ISSUED AT 219 AM CDT Tue Aug 10 2021

Key Points:

1. An enhanced risk for severe thunderstorms remains in place
for Tuesday. Significant damaging winds are possible.

2. There is a heat advisory across eastern Iowa, northwest
Illinois, and far northeast Missouri.

The main forecast concerns are temperatures and the severe
thunderstorm potential across the area. There are placement
differences between the different CAMs as well as differences
between the CAMs and larger scale models for the evolution of
storms today. A big change in the foecast is that thunderstorm
development is expected to be during the mid to late afternoon as
opposed to earlier in the day.

A shortwave passing to our north today will quickly push the
shortwave ridging to the east this afternoon. The GFS, NAM,
Canadian, and ECWMF depict several pieces of vorticity moving
across the area this afternoon and into the evening hour. This is
support by a mid level jet streak moving across the area. CAMs
develop thunderstorms late afternoon and into the evening hours
while the large scale models are inconsistent. The 00 UTC NAM nest
develops an MCS during the late afternoon that would move across
the while area while the 06 UTC HRRR limits afternoon convection
to north of Interstate 80 and another round overnight south of
Interstate 80. Some uncertainty still exits then on the timing and
coverage of thunderstorms.

Models depict impressive instability across with mixed layer CAPE
of 3000 to 4000 J/KG across the area this afternoon owing to the
warm temperatures and very high dewpoints. If storms develop they
will have ample instability to work with and would intensify
quickly. 0 to 6km shear still looks to be in the 20 to 30 knots
range until Tuesday night when deep layer shear of 30 to 40 knots.
This is sufficient shear for severe thunderstorms. If these
storms develop and become organized with a cold pool they would go
on to produce damaging winds with the potential for winds over 75
MPH. Given the damaging wind potential, tornadoes would also be
possible. For these reasons, the storm prediction center as parts
of northeast Iowa and northwest Illinois in an enhanced risk for
severe thunderstorms while the rest of eastern Iowa and northwest
Illinois is a slight risk for severe thunderstorms. Please
stay tuned for the most up to date information for severe weather
potential later today.

In the near term, shortwave ridging will build across the area
this morning and into early this afternoon as the frontal
boundary surges northward as a warm front. This will spread the
higher dewpoints northward as the thermal ridge axis builds into
the area. These conditions with sunny skies will allow high
temperatures today to be in the lower 90s across the area with
dewpoints once again in the mid to upper 70s across the area. This
resulting in max heat indices ranging from 102 to 107 degrees
this afternoon into the early evening. For this reason, the heat
advisory remains in effect through 7 PM this evening.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday)
ISSUED AT 219 AM CDT Tue Aug 10 2021

Warm and very humid conditions along with a continued potential for
severe weather will remain in the picture until a cool front finally
pushes south through the region Friday. Surface high pressure and a
northwest flow aloft will then bring in slightly cooler, but likely
dry and much less humid conditions for the weekend.

Severe Weather Potential:

There is a Slight Risk for Wednesday over all but the far south.
Models have a weak cool front, or outflow boundary dropping south
through the area from late afternoon through the evening. This will
interact with another mass of very unstable air where models have
MLCAPES above 4000 J/KG for possible severe storms, especially
across the north in the afternoon where there will be a better
proximity to a 40-50 kt mid level flow. If a complex develops with a
strong cold pool, a southward moving MCS with severe winds and heavy
rainfall rates may then move south through much of the forecast area
Wednesday night. Forecast pops reflect this with slight to low end
chances for mainly the north during the day, then more widespread
chances overnight over the entire area.

Thursday: SPC has a Marginal Risk over the roughly southern half of
the area. There is some uncertainty and disagreement among the
models in how far south the main frontal boundary will progress,
which along with lingering outflow boundaries, will determine where
the next round of possible strong thunderstorms develop during the
day and progress into the evening and possibly overnight. Deep shear
will be lacking in the overall weak flow regime, leading to
primarily an damaging wind threat from outflow driven storms, along
with heavy rainfall. The current forecast has only slight chances
for thunderstorms in the afternoon, then higher POPS Thursday night.

Heat and Humidity:

Wednesday and Thursday will again see the potential for temperatures
soaring well into the lower 90s with dewpoints in the mid to upper
70s. This will lead to afternoon and early evening heat index values
possibly reaching 100 to around 105. Heat Advisories may be needed
both days, but with some uncertainty associated with frontal
boundaries and impacts of MCS activity, will take a day to day
approach to the need for possible headlines.

Friday through Monday: Friday has lingering chances for showers and
thunderstorms across the south due to some uncertainty in how fast
the boundary shifts southward. Otherwise, high pressure advancing
from the Northern Plains to the Great Lakes will provide overall dry
weather with lower humidity Saturday through Monday. Temperatures
will be near to below normal, with highs in the lower to mid 80s and
lows in the 50s and 60s.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday Afternoon)
ISSUED AT 1224 PM CDT Tue Aug 10 2021

VFR conditions will prevail through much of the TAF period, with
intermittent periods of MVFR conditions possible, associated with
thunderstorms. South winds will be seen, which may gust up to
20-25 KTs in some areas. Winds will get lighter through the night,
but higher gusts can be seen in thunderstorms or produced by
nearby storms. Thunderstorms should increase in coverage around
00z, which will continue through the night, as an intensifying low
level jet will lead to futher development and maintenance. LLWS
is also possible with this increasing jet aloft, leading to a
southwest shear around 40 KTs.
