342 PM CDT SUN JUN 17 2007

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT
STRONG COLD FRONT WAY OUT WEST LATE THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE MAKING
ITS WAY QUICKLY ACROSS THE CWA THROUGH THE NIGHT. WARM CAP STILL
IN PLACE ACROSS MUCH OF THE CWA LATE THIS AFTERNOON HOLDING OFF
VERY UNSTABLE AIR. THUS...WITH STRONG UPPER TROUGH COMING IN FROM
THE WEST ALONG WITH THE SURFACE COLD FRONT...THE CAP WILL WEAKEN
AND/OR BE BROKEN FROM WEST TO EAST THROUGH THE EVENING AND EARLY
MORNING HOURS. EXPECT NUMEROUS TSRAS TO DEVELOP ALONG THE COLD
FRONT AS IT MOVES EASTWARD. SEVERE STORMS WITH LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS ARE POSSIBLE. WITH DEEP MOISTURE AVAILABLE IN
ADVANCE OF FRONT...EXPECT VERY HEAVY RAINS WITH THE THUNDERSTORMS.
WITH LOW FFG VALUES...ESPECIALLY IN CENTRAL SD AND INTO PARTS OF
NORTHEAST SD...WILL ISSUE A FLASH FLOOD WATCH THROUGH THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS FOR PARTS OF THE CWA. OTHERWISE...WINDS WILL BE
STRONG FROM THE SOUTH YET THIS EVENING ACROSS THE EASTERN CWA BUT
SHOULD REMAIN UNDER ADVISORY CRITERIA. THUS...WILL CANCEL THE
ADVISORY FOR THE AREA. DRIER AIR WILL MOVE IN FOR LATER TONIGHT
AND MONDAY. GOOD MIXING ON MONDAY WILL BRING BREEZY/WINDY WEST
WINDS AND MAY BE ANOTHER ADVISORY ISSUED. OTHERWISE...MONDAY WILL
BE MUCH COOLER WITH SOME MIXING SC CLOUDS. THE WINDS WILL DIMINISH
ON MONDAY NIGHT WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN. WILL BE A
COOL NIGHT FOR AWHILE WITH LESS HUMIDITY AND CLEAR SKIES.

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY
MODELS IN REASONABLY GOOD AGREEMENT THROUGHOUT THE LONG TERM WITH
GENERAL PATTERN CONSISTING OF UPPER LEVEL RIDGING WITH A FEW RIDGE
RIDING WAVES TOWARDS THE END OF THE WEEK AND INTO THE WEEKEND. ON
TUESDAY MODELS AGREE WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE SETTING UP OVER
THE CENTRAL PLAINS...CENTERED JUST TO THE SOUTH OF OUR REGION.
THIS SHOULD ALLOW FOR FAIR SKIES AND DRY WEATHER AT LEAST THROUGH
WEDNESDAY AS THE HIGH PUSHES EAST AND SOUTHERLY FLOW RETURNS
ACROSS THE AREA. MODELS HAVE BEEN FAIRLY CONSISTENT NOW IN
BRINGING A RIDGE RIDING WAVE THROUGH THE AREA SOMETIME LATE
WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY EVENING. HAVE ADDED SLIGHT CHANCE
POPS DURING THIS TIME PERIOD TO ACCOUNT FOR THE WAVE. THIS
MORNINGS 12Z GFS STILL SHOWS THIS WAVE OVER THE AREA. FARTHER OUT
TOWARDS THE EARLY PART OF THE WEEKEND SOME MODELS DO SUGGEST THERE
COULD BE ANOTHER WAVE OR TWO THAT MOVE ACROSS THE UPPER RIDGE AXIS
BUT FOR NOW HAVE LEFT THIS TIME PERIOD DRY. HAVE MUCH LESS
CONFIDENCE ON TIMING AND STRENGTH/CREDIBILITY OF THESE WAVES UNTIL
FUTURE MODEL RUNS COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT. AS FOR TEMPS...MADE
ONLY MINOR ADJUSTMENTS UPWARD WITH HIGHS HERE AND THERE AS IT
APPEARS THE RIDGE WILL BE ABLE TO USHER IN WARMER AIR. 12Z MEX
GUIDANCE A TAD WARMER THAN THE 00Z RUN. GENERALLY...HIGHS IN THE
80S WITH LOW 90S ACROSS CENTRAL SD...AND LOWS IN THE 60S SEEM
REASONABLE GIVEN THE PATTERN SETUP.

&&
.AVIATION...
VFR MAINLY MID LEVEL ACCAS CLOUDS WILL TRAVERSE OVER THE TAF
LOCATIONS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. STRONG SOUTH WINDS ARE EXPECTED
TO CONTINUE AT ALL SITES THROUGH THE DAY AND INTO THE EVENING.
OTHERWISE...WARM AIR ALOFT SHOULD KEEP TSRAS FROM FORMING THROUGH
THE AFTERNOON. AS A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THIS EVENING
AND OVERNIGHT...THE MID LEVELS WILL COOL AND EXPECT THUNDERSTORMS
TO DEVELOP ALONG THE COLD FRONT. AT THIS POINT...WILL KEEP WITH
THE VCTS AT THE TAF LOCATIONS FOR MAINLY THIS EVENING AND AMEND IF
A TSRA IS EXPECTED AT A TAF LOCATION. ALSO...WITH IT BECOMING VERY
UNSTABLE...SEVERE WEATHER WILL ALSO BE A POSSIBILITY ACROSS THE
AREA.
