Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Des Moines IA
659 PM CDT Tue Apr 12 2022

...Updated for the 00z Aviation Discussion...

.SHORT TERM.../Tonight through Wednesday Night/
Issued at 311 PM CDT Tue Apr 12 2022

Forecast Impacts for the week:

...Moderate Risk into Tonight
...Cooler Weather Returns
...Chances for Rain/Snow return into the weekend

Confidence Short Term: Medium to High

Overall the evolution of the system in both a synoptic and mesoscale
space is still on track.  The big question that is becoming a bit
more clear is the northern location of the warm front around
initiation time. Previous model runs have placed the front/triple
point across far northwest Iowa (specifically the HRRR/GFS) as
compared to the Euro. Today the HRRR is farther south with the
boundary near 23z to 01z while the GFS is still closer to its
previous forecast and farther north. At 19z, the boundary is just
entering SW Iowa with a large shield of stratus and now elevated
convection over Iowa into MN with the stronger storms into southern
MN. Recent HRRR runs have shown that any stronger convection that
may develop over the north is now more focused nearer the US20
corridor, rather than the IA MN border. With that in mind, the
current moderate risk for that portion of the forecast appears well
placed and the westward extension back into west Iowa remains for
the area of secondary development expected along the dry line in the
evening from 01 to 02z across the west. Without going into great
detail, forcing and shear parameter space is is on the middle to
high end of the spectrum. With SBCAPE over 3200 j/kg into the early
evening along the retreating warm front and 0-1km SRH over 300 to
500 m2/s2 and long hodographs, there remains a potential for
discrete supercells and a strong and relatively longer lived tornado
or two in that area. If storms develop slightly north of the warm
front, then a large hail threat would likely dominate the mode. Any
supercells that develop will move northeast/east with time along or
near the warm front. As the dry line now in central Nebraska will
edge east and fire off a line of storms into our west by 01z. The
line of storms is anticipated to strengthen quickly to severe levels
and then slowly weaken as it moves toward the I35 corridor in
central and southern Iowa.  These storms later in the evening will
have a somewhat less potential to be tornadic, but a severe wind
threat and hail threat will continue. The northern portion of the
line may have an opportunity to tap into the strong 0-3km shear and
continue to have a tornado threat through at least the early morning
hours. This area would more likely be along and north of US20. As
the synoptic low drives northeast, a weaker surge of west northwest
winds will move over the region tomorrow with colder air. Lows
tonight will drop to the mid 30s west to the lower 50s east.  Highs
tomorrow will be in the 40s to around 50.

&&

.LONG TERM.../Thursday through Tuesday/
Issued at 311 PM CDT Tue Apr 12 2022

Confidence: Medium

The remainder of the forecast will be dominated by dry weather
through Saturday with a chance of rain and snow Sunday. We continue
with northwest flow and cool weather into the remainder of the
extended with little warming. Highs will remain in the 40s and 50s
with cool April highs during the remainder of the forecast.

&&

.AVIATION.../For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening/
Issued at 642 PM CDT Tue Apr 12 2022

Main aviation concerns continue to be storms and wind, especially
in the next few hours of the TAF cycle. Storms could gust to
severe limits in addition to dropping ceilings and visibilities
into MVFR or even brief periods of IFR. Additionally, low-level
wind shear is expected into the early overnight hours and gusty
winds of the south, shifting to be out of the west to northwest,
will remain into tomorrow behind an approaching cold front.
Storms/showers expected to end west to east during the overnight
hours, roughly between 09-12Z, with VFR conditions returning
gradually to all TAF sites by about mid morning.
