Issued at 232 PM CDT Sun Jun 8 2025 Weak "cool" frontal pushed any instability and thunderstorm chances south into MO earlier today. In its wake, forcing/moisture along the trailing H7 front has been enough to produce area of light rain showers this afternoon for areas along and south of Interstate 80. Amounts have been/will continue to be very light - perhaps as much as a few hundredths of an inch. Lift wanes and moisture departs this evening, and so too will the shower chances. Latest HRRR near-surface smoke output keeps smoke from Canadian wildfires thru the overnight for areas generally across generally the southern 2/3 of the state, with some dispersion towards morning. Otherwise the parent upper low near the Boundary Waters at the moment, will slowly dive southeast into WI by midday Monday, sliding another mid- level shortwave and associated "cool" front into northeast IA. Shower chances (20-50 percent) will be confined to mainly northeast counties as a result. Similar to today, limited lift/instability will result in any amounts being very light. Elsewhere conditions will be dry beneath partly cloudy skies along with northwest winds that will turn breezy with gusts of 20-30 mph common most places. The pesky upper low finally departs Monday night and Tuesday leaving dry northwest flow with temperatures rebounding as H85 warm-air thermal advection returning; and along with full insolation will boost temperatures back into the 80s and Tuesday and what will likely be the first 90s of the season for Wednesday. The next organized and more widespread rain chances return to Iowa beginning late Wednesday, continuing off and on through the end of the week. Latest model output stalls the warm frontal boundary somewhere across northern Iowa/southern Minnesota beginning late Wednesday, continuing into Thursday. PWATs increase to 1.5-2, which would put it at 90% of historical daily norms. All this to say that this will be favorable set-up for a swath of good rain near where the warm front ends up at. Instability will sufficient for severe potential as well, especially across northern Iowa on Wednesday afternoon/evening. Details will become more clear over the coming days. && .AVIATION /00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z TUESDAY/... Issued at 629 PM CDT Sun Jun 8 2025 VFR conditions will prevail through the period.
