WEATHER SUMMARY FOR UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
1030 AM CDT FRI JUN 14 2013

ACROSS THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY...HIGH PRESSURE PROVIDED
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES OVERNIGHT WITH LIGHT WINDS. A COOLER AND DRIER
AIRMASS ALLOWED TEMPERATURES TO FALL INTO THE 50S AND 40S...THE
COLDER READINGS WERE ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN WISCONSIN.

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS WESTERN AND CENTRAL IOWA
THIS MORNING WILL SLOWLY MOVE EAST AND SOUTHEAST DURING THE DAY. AS
SOUTHERLY WINDS INCREASE AND HELP TO PULL MORE MOISTURE NORTH...AN
INCREASE IN PRECIPITATION COVERAGE IS EXPECTED. PLAN ON HIGHS TODAY
TO BE MAINLY IN THE MID 70S.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORM CHANCES INCREASE CONSIDERABLY TONIGHT INTO
THE EARLY MORNING HOURS SATURDAY AS A COLD FRONT INTERACTS WITH AN
UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM. HEAVY RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE WITH THESE STORMS...
AND THE RISK FOR FLASH FLOODING IS GREATEST ACROSS NORTHEAST IOWA
AND SOUTHERN MINNESOTA. A FLASH FLOOD WATCH IS IN EFFECT. REPEATED
ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGHOUT THE DAY
SATURDAY BEFORE CONDITIONS IMPROVE BY EVENING.

LOOKING AHEAD...A DRIER AND QUIETER DAY IS EXPECTED FOR SUNDAY
HOWEVER ANOTHER SYSTEM COULD BRING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BY
EARLY NEXT WEEK.
