AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BISMARCK ND
300 AM CDT MON AUG 27 2007

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...
THE MODELS CONTINUE TO HAVE A GOOD TREND AND CONSISTENCY FROM RUN TO
RUN.  PER MODEL FORECAST NEXT SURFACE LOW IS DEVELOPING IN WESTERN
SOUTH DAKOTA AS A BROAD LOW AMPLITUDE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH IN THE
ROCKIES MOVES EAST.  AT 230 AM CDT A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS ARCS FROM
NEAR BEACH TO DICKINSON TO GLEN ULLIN THEN SOUTH TOWARD SOUTH
DAKOTA.  THE THUNDERSTORMS ARE LIKELY TO PERSIST THROUGH THE
MORNING. MOVEMENT WAS EAST WHERE MOST UNSTABLE CAPE INCREASES. WILL
GO WITH SCATTERED TSTMS ACROSS SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL ND
THROUGH THE MORNING...WITH POTENTIALLY SEVERE TSTMS SOUTH OF
INTERSTATE 94 IN CENTRAL ND.  THE AIRMASS BECOMES STABLE TO THE
NORTH AND CHANCE OF PRECIP LESSENS TO A SLIGHT CHANCE.  IN ADDITION
LOOKS LIKE WINDS SHOULD CONTINUE TO BE FAIRLY STRONG THROUGH THE
DAY...ESPECIALLY SOUTH CENTRAL. AS THE LOW MOVES EAST NORTHEAST
ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON...THE BEST CAPE MOVES EAST ALSO WHICH
WILL SHIFT POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE WX EAST.  WILL HAVE TO KEEP A CHANCE
OF PRECIP IN THE FORECAST THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON.  BY THEN UPPER
LEVEL TROUGH WILL HAVE MOVED ACROSS THE AREA AND HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BEGIN MOVING INTO THE AREA AHEAD OF THE NEXT UPPER LEVEL RIDGE.
LOOKS LIKE LITTLE CHANCE OF PRECIP FROM TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH
WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

TEMPS WILL BE A PROBLEM TODAY...DUE TO PCPN...CLOUDS AND WINDS.  IN
GENERAL SHOULD SEE WARMEST TEMPS IN THE SOUTH CENTRAL NEAR THE
BORDER WHERE WARM AIR LIKELY TO WRAP UP INTO THE STATE. COOLER
TEMPS...ESPECIALLY TO THE NORTHEAST.  TUESDAY WILL BE THE COOLEST OF
THE NEXT THREE DAYS...WITH A WARMING TREND BEGINNING ON WEDNESDAY.

LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY
00Z GFS SIMILAR TO EARLIER RUNS WITH UPPER RIDGE BUILDING INTO THE
NORTHERN PLAINS. SO...LITTLE CHANGE NEEDED. KEPT THURSDAY AND FRIDAY
DRY AND RAISED TEMPERATURES UP A FEW DEGREES. NO CHANGES MADE FOR
SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. TEMPERATURES FOR SUNDAY SOMEWHAT IN QUESTION AS
TO HOW MUCH COOLING TO EXPECT. BUT...WILL WAIT FOR LATER RUNS TO GET
A BETTER HANDLE ON THIS.

&&

.AVIATION...
COOL AND DRY HIGH PRESSURE WILL DROP ACROSS THE AREA DURING THE DAY.
SOME SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS POSSIBLE EARLY THIS MORNING FROM SOUTH OF
BISMARCK OVER TOWARD JAMESTOWN. THIS SHOULD DIMINISH MAINLY TO
SHOWERS BY MID-MORNING. SOME PATCHY MVFR CEILINGS EXPECTED TODAY.

&&

.BIS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NONE.
