.PREV DISCUSSION... (ISSUED 343 PM CDT WED AUG 16 2006)

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT
FORECAST CHALLENGES INCLUDE CONVECTION TIMING AND PLACEMENT
THIS EVENING AND AGAIN THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH MID-DAY ON
FRIDAY.

PRESENTLY HAVE A COLD FRONT SAGGING SLOWLY THROUGH WESTERN NORTH
DAKOTA BACK INTO NORTHEAST WYOMING. A PRE-FRONTAL SURFACE TROF
EXTENDS SOUTH FROM NEAR KMBG SOUTH DAKOTA TO NEAR KVTN NEBRASKA.
SURFACE DEWPOINTS EAST OF THIS PRE-FRONTAL TROF ARE IN THE LOW TO
MID 60S...AND WEST OF THE BOUNDARY...THEY ARE IN UPPER 40S TO MID
50S. A NARROW RIBBON OF 1500-2500J/KG SFC-BASED CAPE EXISTS JUST
AHEAD OF THE TROF AXIS...WHERE CINH VALUES HAVE ALL BUT
DISSAPPEARED. CONVECTION IS CURRENTLY DEVELOPING ALONG THAT
BOUNDARY ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA. MID-LEVEL SHEAR IS NOT
REAL STRONG...BUT LOW LEVEL SHEAR IS WITH SURFACE TO 800HPA WINDS
SOUTH AT 20 TO 30 KNTS.

12Z MODELS WERE NOT IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT BEYOND 36 HOURS. THE
GFS WAS DISMISSED SIGHTING LARGE AMOUNTS OF CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK
THAT CONTRIBUTE TO THAT MODEL PUSHING UPPER LEVEL ENERGY EAST INTO
THE GREAT LAKES TOO QUICKLY. THE HI-RES NAM-WRF...ON THE OTHER
HAND CONTINUES TO FORECAST AN MCS DEVELOPING BY LATE
AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING SOMEWHERE IN THE VICINITY OF NORTH CENTRAL
SOUTH DAKOTA AND SOUTH CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA. THE GFS STILL HAS
THIS FEATURE TOO...BUT THIS IS WHERE THE CONV FEEDBACK GUMS THE
REST OF ITS FORECAST UP. BY FRIDAY MORNING...AFOREMENTIONED SURFACE
COLD FRONT SHOULD BE AIMING FOR NORTHERN NEBRASKA WITH ONGOING
CONVECTIVE SYSTEM MOVING THROUGH THE FAR EASTERN PORTION OF SOUTH
DAKOTA. TEMPERATURES ARE NOT EXPECTED TO REBOUND ALL THAT MUCH IN
STABLE POST MCS BL ENVIRONMENT...SO ANY CONVECTION THAT CAN STILL
DEVELOP FRIDAY AFTERNOON OR EVENING WILL LIKELY BE ELEVATED STORMS
THAT DEVELOP ON 850HPA FRONT OR 700HPA FRONT...AS 850HPA TO 700HPA
THETA-E NOT PROGGED TO DEPART THIS FORECAST AREA UNTIL 00Z
SATURDAY OR LATER. SATURDAY SHOULD SEE MID-LEVEL HEIGHT RISES WITH
COOL CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING SOUTH INTO THE FA. LITTLE
CHANGE MADE TO THE MAX/MIN T GRIDS...AND DID INCREASE POPS TO 50
PERCENT ALONG NORTHERN TIER COUNTIES THURSDAY NIGHT.

MAIN CONCERN SURROUNDING CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL ON THURSDAY WILL BE
LARGE CAPE/LOW CINH AND LARGE SHEAR PARAMETERS RIGHT ALONG AND
JUST NORTH OF THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY FORECAST TO BE SLIPPING SLOWLY
INTO NORTHERN SOUTH DAKOTA DURING PEAK HEATING. KMBG HI-RES
NAM-WRF SOUNDING SHOWS IMPRESSIVE DEEP EASTERLY LOW LEVEL FLOW.

LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY
OVERALL THE MEDIUM RANGE MODELS AGREE FAIRLY WELL ON THE MID LEVEL
FLOW PATTERN THROUGH THE PERIOD.  MOST FEATURE FLAT FLOW EARLY THAT
THEN TRANSITIONS TO A ROCKIES RIDGE AND EAST CONUS TROF TOWARD THE
END OF THE PERIOD.  NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT DEVELOPS OVER THE REGION
DURING THIS TRANSITION AND THAT TYPE OF FLOW AT THE MID LEVELS IS
ALWAYS TRICKY.  TIMING OF SHORT WAVES IS ALMOST FUTILE WITH EACH
MODEL RUN SEEMINGLY CHANGING THE SPEED...DEPTH AND TIMING.   HAVE
OPTED TO KEEP FORECAST DRY FOR NOW WHICH AGREES WITH OFFICE AROUND
ABR.  TEMPERATURES LOOK TO BE NEAR NORMAL AT THE BEGINNING OF THE
PERIOD...DROPPING TO BELOW NORMAL TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.
