Tom Posted June 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Let's see how much we can increase the soil moisture across NE/IA/MO/KS/IL over the next couple weeks...IMO, we could end up seeing some places back to normal. http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/soilmst/img/curr.w.anom.daily.gif 12z GEFS...eye candy for the farmers across IA/IL....I drove down I-55 in IL and everything is still green, but I could tell there was some dryness. This would be welcomed rainfall through this weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 The wind has reversed across central and eastern Iowa, allowing dews to surge from the 40s back into the 60s and 70s. We could use a couple inches of rain, as could many areas in central/southern Iowa.

gabel23 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Had a storm earlier pop up just to the north west of me but fizzled out. If this one holds together it will be a close call for my area.

Hawkeye Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 It's looking like the storms will just barely miss me to the west. The surge of high cape, shown on satellite by the bubbly cumulus, hit a wall as it tried to push further into northeast/east-central Iowa. This morning's pleasant air will end up hurting us.

This would be welcomed rainfall through this weekend. Arguably the best growing season weather you could ask for up there. Wet for a day or 2 then sunny and hot. Trying to be positive here. Humidity is back and it sucks. Lol.High possibility of an unseasonably cool period in the 3rd week. Signal keeps getting stronger as we go along. With these expected breaks of PNW ridging and C. CONUS troughing as the summer goes along, looks like a summer with something for everyone. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CentralNebWeather Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 NWS Hastings mentioning a potential MCS could develop out west and roll across Nebraska overnight into Thursday morning.

Iowawx Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 This sucks, there are intense storms just off to my west and are not moving in the right direction.

Minny_Weather Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Not looking good for Lincoln either. Right now the storms directly North of me are moving South-Southwest but I'm hoping the eventual cell merger pushes it Southeast. 92.5*F.

Iowawx Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 All storms have now moved southwest of here. I sure hope we can get more severe storms in this active pattern over the next several days.

Minny_Weather Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Welp, I'm done with this. The same areas along the Platte River that have been getting doused repeatedly over the past few weeks got doused again today. This is ridiculous.

Tom Posted June 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 1st round of storms in the books...right where they needed it most across portions of IA/N MO...GEFS nailed this forecast and basically whipped the Euro...it fit the LRC pattern and why I am leaning on the GEFS to win the next battle...2nd round begins today/tonight...as is the case with the convective nature of summa time storms/boundaries, some get hits, some don't...nature of the beast...
