Area Forecast Discussion

648 PM CDT Thu May 19 2022

.DISCUSSION...(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 254 PM CDT Thu May 19 2022

Key Messages:

 - Severe weather expected this afternoon and evening

 - Frost/Freeze Headlines Maybe Needed Sunday Night

Late This Afternoon and Evening...

Continuing to monitor the northward progression of a warm front
which extends from Albert Lea, MN to Platteville, WI. Temperatures
south of this warm front range from the mid-80s to lower 90s. Dew
points have dropped into the 50s in the wake of this mornings
convection. Further to the southwest, the dew points range from
the mid-60s to lower 70s. There is still some questions how much
moisture recovery there will be in the warm sector. The latest
HRRR has a good handle on the current dew points and it shows that
the dew points will recover into the lower 60s. Until that
moisture gets back into the area, there may be a lull in
convection in this area. Soundings show an inverted V in this
area, so there will be a threat of damaging winds and large hail
once the convection returns to this area between 5 PM and 7 PM.

Meanwhile, along the warm front, VWP is showing backing winds at
KLSE and this lengthening the 0-3 km hodograph. The RAP and HRRR
indicate helicities increasing into the 300 to 400. The 0-1 km
computed CAPES will likely climb into the 800 to 1200 J/kg range.
The highest values look to be from the Iowa/Minnesota boarder
north into southeast Minnesota and maybe the counties bordering
the Mississippi in Wisconsin. This tornado threat looks to be from
4 PM to 7 PM.

As the cold front approaches and the moves into the narrow ribbon
of return moisture, there will a line of storms developing along
the cold front. These storms will be capable of producing large
hail and damaging winds. There is still some uncertainty on how
far south the storms will develop into the warm sector.

Sunday through Thursday...

Precipitation chances continue into Sunday morning as an upper level
trough moves over the area. As the trough lifts out of the area,
precipitation could linger over our northern counties into early
Sunday afternoon. High temperatures will remain in the upper 50s/low
60s during the day, and with clouds moving out overnight, low
temperatures could drop down to the low/mid 30s for some.
Frost/freeze headlines may be needed Monday morning.

Although the end of the weekend into Monday appears to be dry,
increasing chances for precipitation returns through the week. While
ensemble solutions show increasing agreement on upper level
troughing moving across the area midweek, there are differences in
the progression of the trough. With this disagreement, differences
in the timing and coverage of precipitation across the area remains.
Temperatures will return to the low/mid 60s for the start of the
week. However, EPS solutions suggest an upward trend in
temperatures into the weekend, with ensemble means above model
climatology.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday evening)
Issued at 647 PM CDT Thu May 19 2022

A line of showers and storms over KRST will slowly sag into KLSE
between 20.01Z and 20.02z. Ceilings will range between 5 and 10K
feet. A few of the thunderstorms may become severe. Damaging winds
and hail are the main concerns. Visibilities at times may become
IFR/MVFR this evening in some places, but confidence was not high
enough to include them in the TAFs at this time.

The thunderstorms will gradually come to an end between
20.05z and 20.07z. While the thunderstorms will be ending
scattered showers will continue for much of the remainder of the
night.
