SIGNIFICANT WEATHER OUTLOOK
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE QUAD CITIES IA IL
543 AM CDT FRI JUN 21 2002

...VERY WARM AND HUMID...

EARLY THIS MORNING...A WEAK FRONTAL ZONE WAS DRAPED FROM NEAR ROCKFORD
TO CEDAR RAPIDS. THE FRONT WILL BEGIN TO LIFT NORTH
LATER THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON...BRINGING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS TO LOCATIONS GENERALLY NORTH OF INTERSTATE 80.
WEAK WINDS AND WARM AIR ALOFT WILL PRECLUDE THE THREAT FOR SEVERE
WEATHER. HOWEVER...ANY THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOP WILL HAVE THE
POTENTIAL TO PRODUCE TORRENTIAL DOWNPOURS AND LOCALIZED FLOODING...DUE
TO COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE.

TODAY IS THE FIRST OFFICIAL DAY OF SUMMER...AND IT CERTAINLY WILL FEEL
EVERY BIT LIKE SUMMER WITH VERY WARM...TO HOT TEMPERATURES AND
MUGGY CONDITIONS. HIGHS WILL GENERALLY RANGE FROM THE MID 80S NORTH TO
THE LOWER 90S SOUTH...WITH HEAT INDICES TOPPING OUT
NEAR 100 DEGREES OVER SOUTHEAST IOWA...NORTHEAST MISSOURI AND
WEST CENTRAL ILLINOIS.

THE WEEKEND WILL FEATURE A CONTINUATION OF THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY...WITH
HIGHS GENERALLY NEAR 90...AND LOWS NEAR 70.
