AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
855 PM CDT WED AUG 9 2006

.DISCUSSION...
PLENTY OF TS GOT GOING EARLIER THIS EVENING IN S CENTRAL SD WHERE
THEY HEATED OUT...WITH A STRONG SFC BNDRY NOTED FROM THE WRN
PLAINS...ARCING SEWD TO AROUND THE KSUX AREA. SOME GUSTS OVER 50 MPH
RECENTLY IN WINNER SD BEHIND SOME DYING CONVECTION IN GREGORY CO...
WITH PRESFR THAT COULD BE DUE TO A SMALL WAKE LOW. OTHERWISE...ALMOST
PULLED THE TRIGGER ON A WARNING WHEN ONE CELL WAS IN SE GREGORY CO...
BUT THE THING STARTED TO WEAKEN RAPIDLY WHEN APPROACHING THE MO
RIVER. IT CONTS TO WEAKEN ATTM AS IT MOVES INTO AN AIRMASS WHICH DID
NOT MIX OUT WELL TODAY AT ALL...I.E. STRATUS. UPDATED THE GRIDS AND
ZFP TEXT EARLIER THIS EVENING...PARTIALLY TO ACCOUNT FOR THE SVR TS
WATCH. 00Z RAOBS SHOW A RAPIDLY STABILIZING AIRMASS FM KOAX/KABR TO
KMPX...ALTHOUGH EVEN KOAX AND KABR HAVE SOME ISSUES WITH STABILITY
IN A COUPLE OF LYRS OFF THE SFC. THEREFORE THE CONVECTION SHOULD
WEAKEN AS IT PULLS SLOWLY TO THE E THRU THE CWFA.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS COULD PROVE TO BE INTERESTING WITH JUICY
BOUNDARY JUST TO THE SOUTH AND A COUPLE OF WEAK IMPULSES THE NEXT 30
HOURS. NAM AND GFS VARY GREATLY ON WHERE MAIN UPPER LEVEL INFLUENCE
WILL COME FROM...ESPECIALLY THURSDAY. GFS/NAM DISAGREE ON HANDLING
OF WAVE IN MT...WHICH AT 17Z APPEARS TO BE RELATIVELY IMPRESSIVE.
OVERALL...NAM KIND OF KILLS THIS FEATURE AND ENHANCES ENERGY
CURRENTLY OVER NORTHERN AZ AT 17Z. GFS MAINTAINS MORE STRENGTH IN MT
WAVE AND MERGES ALL OF THIS INTO A LARGER TROF ON THURSDAY.
RESULTANT DIFFERENCES ARE NOT HUGE BUT POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTION ON
THURSDAY WOULD BE GREATER ACROSS THE AREA...AND PLACEMENT OF
BOUNDARY THIS AFTERNOON...THE AMOUNT OF CONVECTION THAT DEVELOPS ON
IT...AND HOW FAR SOUTH THIS BOUNDARY PUSHES ARE THE MAIN QUESTIONS.
NLG PROFILER UNAVAILABLE AND MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO FIGURE WIND
PROFILE OVER NORTHERN NEBRASKA. MRR AND MCK PROFILERS HAVE TURNED
NORTH AND 500M AND 1000M AND SFC SHOWS MUCH DRIER AIR IN THIS
REGION...AND FRONT APPEARS TO POSSIBLY BE ORIENTED SW TO NE FROM
WESTERN NEBRASKA INTO EXTREME SOUTHERN SD. SLOWLY INCREASING
DIRECTIONAL SHEAR OCCURRING ALOFT PER MRR PROFILER THAT WOULD ALLOW
SOME ORGANIZATION TO WHATEVER DEVELOPS...WITH WIND LIKELY MORE OF A
THREAT THAN HAIL. AT 19Z...LBF SPECIAL SOUNDING HAS ABOUT 250 J/KG
CIN WITH NO REAL ELEVATED CAPE TO WORK WITH IN VERY DRY 850-500
LAYER. BUT...SOMEHOW CONVECTION IS DEVELOPING VERY NEAR NORTH
PLATTE...WITH BASES ABOVE 12000 FEET. SO VERY ELEVATED AT THIS
POINT. CHECKING THROUGH THE MODELS...WITH NO ELEVATED BOUNDARY
NEARBY AND VERY LITTLE UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT...NOT REALLY SURE WHAT
THIS CONVECTION IS FIRING ON.

WILL AIM FOR LOWS TONIGHT SIMILAR TO THIS MORNING AS STRATUS HAS A
PRETTY GOOD CHANCE TO BUILD BACK IN AND DEW POINTS IN THE 70S
EVERYWHERE. WILL ALSO BUMP DEW POINTS UP TOMORROW AS WEAK EAST TO
SOUTHEAST FLOW SHOULD HELP MAINTAIN SIMILAR DEW POINTS.

SATURDAY CONTINUES TO SHOW PROMISE AHEAD OF NEXT COLD FRONT.

IN THE LATTER PERIODS(SUN-WED)...BIGGEST DIFFERENCES COME EARLY IN
THE PERIOD...WITH UKMET AND ECMWF QUICKER TO ERODE SHORT LIVED
SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT...WHILE LAST COUPLE OF RUNS OF THE GFS MAINTAIN
THIS SOUTHWEST FLOW WHILE DEEPENING A WAVE OVER THE NORTHERN
ROCKIES. THESE DIFFERENCES RESULT IN A MORE PROLONGED PERIOD OF
POTENTIAL PRECIP FROM THE GFS...LINGERING CHANCES INTO MONDAY
AFTERNOON...WHILE THE EUROPEAN MODELS WOULD SHIFT PRECIP EAST OF THE
AREA ON SUNDAY. WILL SIDE WITH THE EURO MODELS AND THE 12Z GFS ON
TIMING OF FRONT FOR SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. REGARDLESS OF
THIS...SUNDAY CONTINUES TO SHOW A LOT OF PROMISE FOR PRECIPITATION
WITH A DYNAMIC RIGHT REAR QUAD OF UPPER JET. WILL GO AHEAD AND RAISE
POPS TO 60-70 PERCENT FOR SUNDAY...ESPECIALLY RIGHT THROUGH THE
HEART OF THE CWA. ENSEMBLE POPS FOR SUNDAY ALSO PRETTY
HIGH...KICKING OUT A GREATER THAN 50% CHANCE FOR MORE THAN A TENTH
OF AN INCH. AT THIS TIME...NO PRECIP THREAT FOR TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY.
