AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE QUAD CITIES IA IL
800 AM CDT TUE JUN 25 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 345 AM CDT TUE JUN 25 2013

ANALYSIS AT 3 AM SHOWS NEXT MCS DEVELOPING LOOSELY ACROSS CENTRAL
PLAINS AND WESTERN IOWA AHEAD OF STRONGER DIGGING UPPER WAVE IN
WESTERN US. ALL NOWCAST TOOLS SUPPORTS MORE CONVECTION WITH LOCALLY
HEAVY RAINS AND RISK OF SEVERE TODAY INTO TONIGHT. UPSTREAM ENERGY
STILL SUPPORTS STRONG COOLING TREND AND DRIER AIR KICKING IN LATE
IN THE WEEK WITH BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 345 AM CDT TUE JUN 25 2013

TODAY...WESTERN IOWA CONVECTION TO ARRIVE IN WEST AND NW SECTIONS
BEFORE 12Z WITH INDICATIONS OF SOME STRONG STORMS AND LOCALLY HEAVY
RAIN. GREATEST PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE MOSTLY ALONG AND NORTH OF
HIGHWAY 30. HIGHS MAY NEED LOWERING NORTH AGAIN AS LIKE PAST 2
DAYS WITH CLOUDS AND COOL POOLS FROM CONVECTION OUTFLOWS. LOCAL
RAIN TOOLS SUGGEST LIGHT TO MOSTLY MODERATE RAIN AMOUNTS NW 1/3
OR SO WITH ISOLATED SWATHS TO AROUND 1 INCH UNTIL AROUND 21Z WHEN
CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURES REACHED. SATURATED SOILS MANY LOCATIONS
COULD STILL RESULT IN FLASH FLOODING PER LOCAL REPORTS OF NEAR
FLASH FLOODING PAST HOUR IN STEPHENSON COUNTY FROM RAIN AMOUNTS OF
LESS THAN AN INCH. MAJOR MCS SHOULD START DEVELOPING AROUND OR
AFTER 21Z...PROBABLY VERY ROUGHLY SD/IA/NE BORDER REGION BUT POOR
CONFIDENCE OF INITIATION EVOLUTION AS CURRENT IOWA CONVECTION WILL
IMPACT THIS LATER EVENT.

TONIGHT...MODERATE TO STRONG MCS TO PASS WITH LOCAL TOOLS STILL
SUGGESTING AREAS OF 1 TO 3 INCHES OF RAIN THAT WILL CAUSE MORE
FLASH FLOODING AND HIGH RIVER LEVELS WITH MANY MAJOR RIVER CRESTS
POSSIBLE. LOCATION AND EXTENT UNABLE TO ASSESS FOR ABOVE REASONS
DESCRIBED IN TODAY SECTION. UPPER DIFFLUENCE TOOLS THOUGH DO SUGGEST
MOSTLY ACROSS CENTRAL AND SOUTH SECTIONS. LOWS ARE LIKELY AGAIN
SEVERAL DEGREES TOO HIGH AS COOL POOLS SHOULD RESULT IN LOWS IN
THE MID TO UPPER 60S. CONVECTION LIKELY TO MOVE EAST TOWARD DAYBREAK
WEDNESDAY. MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE TOOLS SUPPORT A LOW TO MODERATE END
OF SEVERE WEATHER AS WELL WITH STRAIGHT LINE MAIN THREAT OF 60-70 MPH.
ISOLATED HAIL TO 1.5 INCHES AND A BRIEF TORNADO MAY OCCUR WITH ANY
BACKING OF LOW LEVEL WINDS OVERALL LESSER THREATS ATTM.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 345 AM CDT TUE JUN 25 2013

FOCUS IN THE LONG TERM WAS ON EXITING WEDNESDAY AM MCS.

WE REMAIN IN COOLER CYCLONIC/NW FLOW THROUGH THE ENTIRE EXTENDED
PERIOD WITH A CHANCE AT SOME LINGERING PCPN WEDNESDAY  MORNING AS

CENTRAL IA AND NW IL WITH DAMAGING WINDS OVER 60 MPH AND LARGE
HAIL. WE REMAIN IN COOLER CYCLONIC FLOW THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND WITH A
DECENT EMBEDDED WAVE SLATED TO COME ACROSS THE AREA SAT.  EXPECT
MAINLY SHOWERY ACTIVITY...BUT CANNOT RULE OUT THUNDER ATTM.  MUCH
COOLER AND LESS HUMID CONDITIONS AREA EXPECTED...THUS LOWERED TEMPS
AND DEW POINTS THROUGHOUT.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 759 AM CDT TUE JUN 25 2013

MOSTLY VFR CONDITIONS NEXT 24 HOURS WITH THUNDERSTORM CHANCES
INCREASING TODAY AND TONIGHT. BEST CHCS OF STORMS NEXT 6 HOURS

STORMS TO CONTINUE THROUGH AM HOURS OVER PORTIONS OF EASTERN IA
WITH LOW LEVEL JET. MORE WIDESPREAD CONVECTION SUGGESTED BY LATER
THIS AFTERNOON AND NIGHT. HEAVIEST STORMS SHOULD PRODUCE FEW TO
SEVERAL HOURS OF MVFR TO IFR IN STORMS. WINDS MOSTLY AOB LIGHT
