AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD...CORRECTED FOR AVIATION
740 PM CDT FRI SEP 29 2007

.DISCUSSION...

EARLY UPDATE THIS EVENING TO CANCEL THE WIND ADVISORY ACROSS THE
AREA AND UPDATE TIMING OF PRECIP ACROSS FORECAST AREA.  WATER VAPOR
CURRENTLY SHOWING MAIN LOBE OF ENERGY ACROSS THE FOUR CORNERS
REGION. LEADING SHORTWAVE CURRENTLY EXITING COLORADO KICKING OFF
SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS WESTERN NEBRASKA.  THESE ARE EXPECTED
TO WORK NORTHEAST WITH AN ESTIMATED STORM MOTION OF 215 AT 40 KNOTS.
THIS WILL AFFECT WESTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA AFTER 9 PM. EXPECT THE
MAIN SEVERE WEATHER THREAT WITH THESE STORMS TO BE HAIL WITH THE
STORMS REMAINING ELEVATED. GOOD SPEED SHEAR IN PLACE TO ALLOW FOR
MID LEVEL ROTATION. WITH RELATIVELY LOW FREEZING LEVEL AROUND 10-11K
FEET AGL AND GOOD SPEED SHEAR IN PLACE...COULD SEE HAIL SIZE
APPROACH HALF DOLLAR SIZE IN THE STRONGEST STORMS. CAN NOT RULE OUT
STRONG WIND GUSTS EITHER AS MOMENTUM IS BROUGH DOWN FROM ALOFT...BUT
EXPECT THIS TO BE A LESSER THREAT. UPDATED ZFP AND PFM POSTED. /BT

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
MARGINAL WIND ADVY AT BEST...BUT WITH A FEW MORE HOURS OF HTG...PBLY
WL MIX OUT TO THE CRITERIA AT TIMES. SO WL NOT CANCEL ADVY AND
INSTEAD LET EXPIRE AT 00Z.

THE FORECAST FOR TONIGHT THEN SHIFTS TO CDFNT APPRAOCHING FM W AND
TIMING OF TRW DEVELOPMENT. FEEL STORMS WL BEGIN TO FIRE FURTHER W AS
S/W EJECT NEWD OUT OF CNTRL ROCKIES. PLENTY OF HIGH CLOUDS CUTTING
OFF HEATING AT THE MOMENT SO DYNAMICS WL NEED TO PLAY A MAJOR ROLE
IN TRW DEVELOPMENT. STG LLJ WL CONT TONIGHT AHEAD OF FNT AND WITH
S/W AND COLD POOL ALOFT...ONCE STORMS GET GOING...THEY SHUD BE ABLE
TO MAINTAIN AND SPREAD EWD THRU THE NIGHT. APPEARS THE BEST CHC FOR
TRW WL BE W OF I29 TONIGHT NEAR CDFNT WITH BEST CHC FOR PRECIP AFTER
02Z WRN CWA. CUD SEE SOME LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS AND STORMS TRAIN OVER
THE SAME AREAS. SVR WX THREAT ACRS THE WRN CWA THRU 06Z WITH WIND
AND HAIL THE MAIN THREAT. WL GO WITH HIGHEST POPS W OF I29 TONIGHT
AND MAINLY AFTER 05Z. PORTIONS OF NW IA AND SW MN MAY NOT SEE ANY
THREAT OF PRECIP UNTIL 12Z. WITH SLY GRAD AND SLOWER FNT...LOW TEMPS
WL GENLY BE IN THE 60 TO 65 DEG RANGE...EXP FAR WRN CWA WHERE LOWS
SHUD DROP INTO 50S LATE WITH FROPA.

VIGEROUS UPPER WAVE CURRENTLY OVER NV AND UT ON TRACK TO MOVE ACROSS
THE FSD CWA TOMORROW. TONS OF DYANMICS WITH THIS SYSTEM ALONG WITH
DEW POINTS IN THE UPPER 50S TO MID 60S AND PWATS OF 1.5 TO 2 INCHES
WILL HELP PRODUCE WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THERE IS THE
POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE STORMS TOMORROW...MAINLY NEAR OF THE COLD CORE
LOW. WILL ESPECIALLY HAVE TO WATCH FOR THE MID LEVEL DRY PUNCH...AS
ANY SFC HEATING WILL QUICKLY DESTABILIZE THE BNDRY LAYER. ALSO VERY
HIGH AMOUNTS OF DIRECTION AND SPEED SHEAR...SO COULD SEE SOME HAIL
PRODUCING THUNDERSTORMS AND WOULD NOT RULE OUT A FEW COLD AIR
FUNNELS WITH ANY SFC CLEARING. MASSIVE SUBSIDENCE AND DRY AIR
ADVECTION BEHIND THE UPPER WAVE...SO SHOULD SEE A SHARP BACKSIDE TO
THE PRECIPITATION FIELD AND RAPID CLEARING FROM WEST TO EAST
TOMORROW EVENING.

AFTER A DRY DAY ON MONDAY...TUESDAY IS SETTING UP TO BE
WET...ESPECIALLY IN THE EAST. THE NEXT UPPER WAVE OFF THE WRN COAST
OF CANADA ATTM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE NRN PLAINS...BRINGING ANOTHER
ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. STRONG MOISTURE AND WARM AIR
ADVECTION AHEAD OF THIS WAVE MON NIGHT WILL BRING THE INITIAL CHANCE
FOR PRECIPITATION...THEN THE UPPER WAVE TO MOVE ACROSS THE AREA TUE
AFTERNOON. AGAIN THERE WILL BE A SMALL CHANCE OF SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS WITH STEEP LAPSE RATES AND FAVORABLE WIND SHEAR
PROFILES.

INTO THE EXTENDED...SHOULD BE DRY WED AND THU BUT BECOMES A LITTLE
LESS CERTAIN FRI AND SAT. AS ONE WOULD EXPECT...MODELS HAVE BEEN
INCONSISTENT IN THIS TIME FRAME. THERE ARE SOME INDICATIONS OF WARM
AIR ADVECTION AND WEAK S/WV IMPULSES POSSIBLE...SO WENT WITH LOW
POPS. MUCH BETTER CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION LATER INTO THE WEEKEND AS
LONG WAVE TROUGH SHIFTS INTO THE CNTRL CONUS.

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR BCMG SCT MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS IN DVLPG TSRA/SHRA WEST OF JAMES
RIVER BY 06Z...AND TO I29 CORRIDOR BY 10Z OR SO. STG SLY FLOW OFF
SFC TO 3KFT OF 30 TO 50 KTS FM ERN SD TO SRN MN AND NWRN IA...WITH
SFC WND GSTS ARND 25 KTS EXPCD. SOME POTENTIAL OF LLWS IN LWR
ELEVATIONS LIKE FSD AND SUX...IF SFC DECOUPLING CONTINUES.
