Never trust a warm front.

Pretty much. All or nothing with the warm front, really.

Yesterday when we were going over the forecast and I was asked what I thought, I said, well I have 72, but that'll be wrong. It's going to either be 58 or like 80, lol.

If you're in the Des Moines area, is this one of those nights where the family should sleep in the basement, or will it be out of the area later tonight?

i use this. If you go to 00z (6pm central) that's when things start to pick up.

I think I'm confused. Wouldn't 00z be 7pm CDT? I'm terrible at converting time usually so that's why I'm double checking.

Clearing/warm front will be approaching Des Moines soon. Forgive my rough drawing... Two areas to watch:

1. NW MO/SW IA - Small cumulus is beginning to build. Watch for these clouds to grow and begin to tower over the next few hours. These would be storms to threaten central IA.

2. NE MO/SE IA/WC IL - Also beginning to grow a cumulus field and is a favored location for strong severe weather.

Both areas will continue advancing northeast.
