AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ABERDEEN SD
1039 AM CDT THU APR 6 2006

.UPDATE...ONGOING ELEVATED CONVECTION SLOWLY LIFTING NORTH ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA...WITH REDEVELOPMENT ALREADY NOTED ACROSS CENTRAL
SOUTH DAKOTA. HAVE HAD A COUPLE OF SEVERE HAIL REPORTS SO FAR WITH
THIS SCATTERED ELEVATED CONVECTION. LAPSE RATES BETWEEN 800HPA AND
500HPA REMAIN QUITE SUPPORTIVE OF STRONG UPDRAFTS...WITH GOOD UPPER
LEVEL DIVERGENCE NOTED IN LATEST RUC DATASET THROUGH 18Z ACROSS THE
CENTRAL AND WESTERN FORECAST AREA. THE NEXT VORT LOBE IN WATER VAPOR
IMAGERY THAT COULD POTENTIALLY INDUCE ANOTHER ROUND OF CENTRAL
NEBRASKA TO SOUTH CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE LIFTING
NORTHEAST INTO THE NEBRASKA PANHANDLE OVER THE NEXT 6 TO 9 HOURS.

THE WIND ADVISORY STILL LOOKS ON TRACK AS A POTENT BACKDOOR COLD
FRONT DROPS SOUTH OUT OF NORTH DAKOTA AND WESTERN MINNESOTA THIS
EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. 925HPA CAA TO THE TUNE OF ABOUT 15 DEGREES
CELSIUS IN 12 HOURS BETWEEN 00Z FRIDAY AND 12Z FRIDAY...WITH A
STRONG 3 AND 6-HOURLY ISALLOBARIC WIND COMPONENT TO BOOT. MAY HAVE
TO NUDGE THE START TIME UP A COUPLE HOURS IF LATEST LAMP GUIDANCE
PANS OUT.    DORN

.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT
THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE FACING THE NEAR TERM DEALS WITH PCPN COVERAGE
AND TYPE TODAY THRU TONIGHT. CURRENTLY MODELS ARE TAKING 5H LOW
FURTHER TO SOUTH THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT..AND -TSRA JUST NOW
REACHING FAR SW CWA. LATEST DAY1 OUTLOOK FROM SPC JUST CLIPS FAR
SERN CWA. BEST INSTABILITY OCCURS THRU MORNING ACROSS SRN TO SE CWA
WITH RESPECTABLE 7H-5H LAPSE RATES FROM 6 TO 7 DEGREES C. NAM MOST
UNSTABLE CAPE VALUES REACH 500 J/KG BY 18Z WITH BEST LIS AROUND -1.
BY 00Z FRIDAY THESE VALUES FALL OFF DRAMATICALLY AS DRY AIR BEGINS
TO PUSH IN FROM NORTH. FOR NORTHERN COUNTIES...QUESTION REMAINS ON
WHEN CONVECTIVE PCPN WILL PHASE OVER TO STRATIFORM TYPE AS 85H AND
7H TROWAL FEATURES TAKE OVER. THESE ALSO BOTH SLIP RAPIDLY SOUTH BY
00Z AS SFC AND 5H LOWS TAKE MORE SOUTHERLY ROUTE. ALSO WELL
PRONOUNCED DRY PUNCH NOW ADVECTING THROUGH WRN NEB/WRN SD WITH SAT
PIC SHOWING CLEAR SKIES. KEPT HIGHEST PROBABILITY PCPN TO THE
SOUTHERN/WESTERN COUNTIES DURING DAY...TAPERING CHCS DOWN TO THE NE
PART OF CWA.

NEXT CONCERN IS WINDS TONIGHT. AS LOW SLOWLY SLIPS SOUTH...STRONG
HIGH BUILDS IN FROM NORTH. MAV GUIDANCE SHOWING SUSTAINED WINDS AT
OR ABOVE 30KTS FOR MANY PLACES. GIVEN STRENGTH OF SUBSIDENCE BEHIND
EXITING SYSTEM AND CAA TAKING PLACE..SEE NO REASON TO DISCOUNT. WILL
ISSUE A WIND ADVRY FOR ALL CWA FROM 00Z TO 12Z FRIDAY. THIS MAY BE A
LITTLE LONG TIME WISE...BUT WOULD RATHER RUN LONG THAN HAVE LATER
SHIFTS EXTEND ADVRY FOR AN HOUR OR TWO TO COVER. CLEARING EXPECTED
RAPIDLY TONIGHT AND TRENDED POPS QUICKLY OUT OF CWA OVERNIGHT.

REMAINDER OF NEAR TERM QUIET. BUILDING HEIGHTS AND WAA RETURNS TO
CWA BY SATURDAY MORNING. MODELS DO PROG ANOTHER WAVE PASSING THROUGH
CWA SATURDAY NIGHT...BUT LITTLE SEEN IN THE WAY OF MOISTURE WITH
FEATURE. MIGHT BE A FEW ACCAS AS IT PASSES OVERHEAD BUT DONT EXPECT
MUCH MORE THAN THAT.

.LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY
MODELS IN FAIR AGREEMENT DURING THIS PERIOD. IT STARTS OFF WITH A
WEAK SURFACE TROUGH IN THE AREA ON SUNDAY AND A WEAK DISTURBANCE
PASSING TO THE NORTH SUNDAY NIGHT. A BROAD...AND RATHER FLAT...UPPER
RIDGE WILL BE OVER THE CENTRAL U.S. ON SUNDAY. THE RIDGE WILL DRIFT
EAST ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY AS AN UPPER TROUGH MAKES PROGRESS ACROSS
THE WESTERN CONUS. MODELS AGREE THAT THIS UPPER TROUGH AND ITS
SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE THROUGH THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN PLAINS
MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. HAVE CONTINUED WITH SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS FOR NOW...BUT THIS MAY NEED TO BE INCREASED THE
STRENGTH/TRACK OF THIS SYSTEM BECOMES MORE CERTAIN. MODELS DO VARY
IN THE AMOUNT OF COLD AIR BEHIND THIS SYSTEM HOWEVER. WENT WITH A
MODEL BLEND FOR TEMPS BY THE END OF THE PERIOD.
