Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
1131 PM CDT Tue Jun 14 2022

...Updated for the 06z Aviation Discussion...

.DISCUSSION.../Tonight through Tuesday/
Issued at 307 PM CDT Tue Jun 14 2022

Forecast Highlights:
- Heat Advisory remains until the evening with winds remaining gusty
through the evening
- Another hot and humid day, mainly southeast half afternoon/evening
-Showers and storms return tonight into Wednesday morning, some
severe
- Another round of strong to severe storms late afternoon to evening
Wednesday, more limited coverage

Satellite imagery depicts mainly clear skies across the state this
afternoon, with some high clouds over the far western area given the
interaction with the approaching trough to the west. The thermal
ridge continues to lift north this afternoon, with strong warm air
advection keeping gusty winds across the state. The northwestern
area as expected saw the highest gusts through the morning, with
gusts between 40-45 mph. These winds have since slightly died down
this afternoon, though winds will continue to be gusty between 30 to
35 mph through the early evening. Temperatures are trending as
forecast, with values largely in the low to mid 90s across Iowa.
Temperatures through peak heating will continue to increase just
slightly yet in the mid to upper 90s with dewpoints in the upper 60s
keeping rather uncomfortable weather into the evening.

Tonight/Wednesday morning:

A trough axis with a strengthening mid level low pressure system is
expected to pivot into the Northern Central Plains tonight, with an
associated cold front entering into eastern Nebraska/western Iowa
into the early evening. Temperatures overnight will be on the warmer
side into the mid 60s to 70s with dewpoints in the 60s, keeping
conditions relatively unstable. MUCAPE values off the 12z HRRR and
RAP models range in the 3500-4000 J/kg, along with moderate lapse
rates around 7-7.5 C/km and 35-40 knots of effective shear over
western Iowa late Tuesday and overnight into Wendesday morning.
These conditions are expected to be quite favorable for severe
thunderstorms this evening and overnight, as the SPC has a slight
risk over the majority of the warning area. HREF ensemble members
largely have storms traveling across the northwestern to central
portions of the state through Wednesday morning, though slight
differences exist on location of development and overall movement,
compared to the 12Z NAM having more widespread storms across much
of the state. The primary risk with this round of storms is
expected to be hail greater than 1 inch. Damaging wind gusts with
this storms also are looking possible, though a few tornadoes
cannot be ruled out. On the hydro side, model soundings continue
to show rather impressive PWAT values around 2 inches over
southwestern/western Iowa, along with the warm cloud layer
approaching 15kft that may prove favorable for heavy rainfall of
2-3 inches per hour, which the WPC currently has a marginal over
much of the state and a slight risk to the southwest. Considering
the storm motion, mean wind values are generally around 25-35
knots between RAP and NAM soundings which would help storms to
move along relatively quickly. Guidance also suggests low level
jet intensification towards 35kts after 03z tonight across the
much of the state which could increase the chance for training and
higher rainfall totals. Overall WPC guidance has 1-2" rainfall
totals over west/central parts of the state, though localized
higher amounts, especially to the southwest are likely.

Wednesday late afternoon to evening:

Temperatures across the southeastern half of the state will remain
dominated by southwesterly flow ahead of the slowly tracking cold
front, with peak heating values in the upper 80s to low 90s and dew
points in the low 70s. A Heat Advisory across portions of the
southeast will remain in effect between 1-8pm Wednesday. Winds will
continue to be on the breezy side with gusts largely between 20-30
knots ahead of the approaching cold front. Plenty of instability
will be available for storms to develop ahead of the front towards
the late afternoon to evening. Looking into the location of storm
initiation, the NAM and HHHR runs suggest development occurring
east of I-35/Des Moines metro area after 22-23z this evening,
which also comes into general agreement with the HREF ensembles as
well. MLCAPE values around 3000-3500 J/kg with 3500-4000 J/kg
MUCAPE will again be favorable for large hail at times with some
storms. Shear values are suggested at even higher values with 0-6
km vertical shear values of 50-55 knots. Given the orientation of
the shear vectors in relation to the storms themselves are more
favorable for cold pool dominant storms, which could overall limit
tornado potential. Large hail continues to be the primary threat,
though damaging wind gusts and locally heavy rain cannot be ruled
out, though a tornado or two cannot be ruled out, especially
northeast where conditions are looking more favorable. A slight
risk again is over mainly the eastern half of the state looking
into this afternoon's SPC guidance. On the hydro side for this
round storm motion is looking relatively on the faster side with
mean winds of 30-35 knots and lower PWATs. This should help limit
hydro concerns, though overall locally heavy rainfall may occur at
times with these storms.

Thursday and beyond:

Showers and weakening storms are expected to move out of the area
early Thursday morning. Conditions will largely remain dry through
the rest of the week as another large thermal ridge skirts out of
the northwest into the north central CONUS. The NAM suggests a
chance for some quick moving showers and storms late Thursday
through early Friday morning over southern Iowa, with strong
instability and moderate shear overhead. Some disagreement exists
though between the GFS and NAM on the placement of the boundary,
with more details expected in the coming days. Otherwise with the
prominent ridge, hot and uncomfortable temperatures are likely to
return into the weekend/early next week. Values from the NBM range
in the upper 90s to low 100s through Tuesday, with heat headlines
expected if not guaranteed by then.

.AVIATION.../For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday night/
Issued at 1128 PM CDT Tue Jun 14 2022

Multiple thunderstorms have developed along the cold front from
southwest Iowa to northeast Iowa. So far, thunderstorms have been
impacting FOD and MCW, and approaching ALO and DSM. The cold
front has stalled, and storms are expected to develop during most
of the overnight hours and into Wednesday morning. FOD and MCW are
expected to have prolonged periods of at least VCTS, and with
multiple occurrences of TS at the station. This will eventually
work toward ALO and DSM for extended periods of time until the
cold front passes. Expect MVFR ceilings with thunderstorms. Heavy
rain may lead to brief periods of IFR conditions. Gusty winds are
also expected. Overall aviation conditions will be poor over the
next 24 hours at central Iowa airports.

.CLIMATE...
Issued at 307 PM CDT Tue Jun 14 2022

Another day of record or near record heat is expected to continue
through this afternoon/early evening, which may lead to both high
and maximum low records for Tuesday/Today. The records for our
five primary climate sites are noted below. Waterloo, Ottumwa, and
Lamoni would be the more likely record high locations today based
on the current forecast. Record maximum low records appear likely
at all five locations, but this will be dependent on convective
trends into this evening as well.

Today's record highs:

Mason City (100/1987)
Des Moines (101/1886)
Waterloo (99/1987)
Lamoni (96/1987)
Ottumwa (99/1987)

Today's record maximum lows (though 1am CDT/midnight CST):

Mason City (73/1994)
Des Moines (75/1994)
Waterloo (75/1994)
Lamoni (77/1981)
Ottumwa (77/1981)
