The episode as NWS DVN wrote it up.
An upper level disturbance produced an area of thunderstorms that moved southeast across northeast Missouri in the afternoon. An isolated wind damage report to a tree was received.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Quad Cities, IA wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 10, 2:13 PM CST, 15 minutes earlier.
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Quad Cities IA IL 313 PM CDT SUN JUL 10 2016 .SYNOPSIS... Issued at 227 PM CDT Sun Jul 10 2016 Nocturnal MCS from ND still active across the area this afternoon. Solar insolation ahead of the MCS has lead to restrengthening this afternoon. Also, showers and thunderstorms are redeveloping across central Iowa. These showers and thunderstorms could affect areas along highway 20 and along and south of highway 34. A strong wind gust is not out of the question with these storms this afternoon. && .SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Monday) ISSUED AT 227 PM CDT Sun Jul 10 2016 Main forecast concern for the short term is the ongoing convection across the CWA and what will happen with it this evening. Additional convection moving east across the highway 20 corridor will likely make it into the north before the storms become elevated this evening. Once this happens, the storms should shift north of the area on the warm advection wing. Before this, one would think that the cold pool behind this system would lead to a stabilization of the environment. Think that the showers and storms over Mason City area will weaken as it moves into Buchanan County. Past this, it appears that the rest of the short term should be dry. If more moisture can work its way into the CWA tonight, there is a small chance for another MCS which will form across ND and head south. Current CAMs and stable environment lead me to believe that this is unlikely. Monday should be dry as the warm dome enters the area. Moisture should increase, and lead to heat indices near 100, especially across the south. This moisture and high temperatures will likely lead to high instability, which sets the stage for Monday night. .LONG TERM...(Monday Night through Sunday) ISSUED AT 227 PM CDT Sun Jul 10 2016 Active weather period through the long term as previously advertised is pretty much unchanged. Chances for thunder will be in the forecast through much of the extended, with the best chances for severe weather being Tuesday and possibly Wednesday. With the active weather today, haven't made many changes to the long term. Monday night into Thursday am...Active period of weather during this time with chances for convection in the afternoon as well as overnight. Convective feedback in the synoptic models also suggests an active period. Overall synoptic field will gradually become more conducive for strong to severe storms through the week, with the best chances being Tuesday and Wednesday. The main threat with any severe weather would be damaging winds. SPC has the area in a slight risk for Tuesday. At this time, positioning and timing of convection will be driven by mesoscale parameters that will not become clear until we approach the event. As such, have kept much of what the blend gave. Another warm front tries to enter the area late in the week and bring the chances for rain back into the forecast area. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday Afternoon) ISSUED AT 1144 AM CDT Sun Jul 10 2016 Showers and storms will bring periods of mvfr to local ifr conditions through mid afternoon. Then, expect return to mainly vfr conditions rest of taf cycle. Additional showers and storms cannot be totally ruled out tonight, mainly near to north of Highway 20 that could affect DBQ, but confidence too low for any mention at this time. In addition, some fog potential exists overnight through daybreak with pooling of low level moisture aided by recent rains in some areas. However, anticipate east to southeast winds 5-10 kts tonight, which may keep boundary layer stirred or mixed just enough to preclude much development thus confidence on fog occurrence is low. Winds variable and possibly gusty near storms, will become predominately sustained from the southeast at 10-15 kts with higher gusts to 25 kts possible for a time later this afternoon. Tonight, winds will be from the east and southeast at 5-10 kts. Monday will see winds increasing from the south at 10-20 kts. && .DVN Watches/Warnings/Advisories... IA...None. IL...None.
