AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
442 PM CDT FRI MAY 4 2007

.DISCUSSION...
VARIOUS SHORT WAVES ALOFT WILL MOVE NNEWD OVR CWA THRU TNGT...WITH
FIRST WAVE AND ASSCD TSTMS AFFECTING WRN CWA THIS EVE...AND ANOTHER
WAVE MOVG INTO SERN SD LATE TNGT. MAIN ACTION SHOULD REMAIN WEST OF
I29 TNGT. WAVES WILL INTERACT WITH LOW LVL SSELY FLOW OF MOIST
UNSTABLE AIR IMPINGING ON DIFFUSE WMFNT MOVG NWD INTO SRN CWA LATE
TNGT. APPEARS MAIN THREAT OF SVR IS SOME LARGE HAIL IN WRN CWA THIS
EVE...AS MOST THUNDERSTORMS RATHER ELEVATED. INCRG SELY FLOW AND
MOISTURE WILL KEEP TEMPS UP TNGT. ANY TRAINING THUNDERSTORMS MAY
CAUSE HEAVY RAIN/PONDING ISSUES AND HAVE ISSUED FLOOD WATCH
STARTING IN WRN CWA FOR TNGT...AND FURTHER EAST PAST THE I29
CORRIDOR STARTING SAT NGT.

TRAIN OF WAVES WL CONTINUE TO ROTATE AROUND WRN TROUGH THROUGH THE
WEEKEND...EACH BRINGING ENHANCEMENT IN PCPN. ONE SUCH WAVE REALLY
INTENSE DIGGING THRU NV TOWARD 4 CORNERS...AND WL BE A SIG PRODUCER
OF WX LTR SAT AND SAT NIGHT.  MAIN CONCERN ADDRESSED ABOVE IS THE
FLOODING THREAT.  WATER SOURCE IN PLACE WITH 150-200 PERCENT PWATS
SLOSHING THROUGH THE CNTRL AND ERN PLAINS. SOUNDINGS HEADING NWRD
FROM I90 ARE VERY FAVORABLE WITH SKINNY TALL CAPE...AND PLENTY OF
SHEAR ABV STABLE LYR...WITH STORM MOTION ALSO VERY TRAINY. INITIAL
HVY RAIN THREAT WL BE ACRS JAMES VALLEY...SHIFTING EWRD INTO MN AND
IA LTR AT NIGHT.

WL ALSO HAVE TO MONITOR SVR THREAT AS WELL EARLY IN EACH LTR
AFTN/EVNG INCREASE. LKLY TO HAVE AN UNDERDONE DRY SLOT SWING NWRD
THRU PLAINS ON SAT IN ADVANCE OF STRONGEST WAVE SAT AFTN...AND WL
HAVE SFC WMFNT MOVING TOWARD MO RVR CORRIDOR AT SAME TIME. IN THIS
LOCATION...WL HAVE A FORMIDIBLE COMBINATION OF SHEAR/INSTABILITY...
WITH MUCH OF THE SHEAR UNIDIRECTIONAL IN THE 2-8KM LYR. WL MENTION
THREAT FOR SEVERE WX...LKLY FEATURING SPLITTING SUPERCELLS...AND
LEFT MOVERS WITH FAIRLY LARGE HAIL. WL ALSO HAVE TO WATCH TORNADIC
THREAT NR MO RVR.

PRESSURE FALLS AND INTENSE GRADIENT AS WELL...SO WNDS WL CONTINUE
THEIR OVERNIGHT PICKUP RIGHT THRU THE DAY. OLD GAME OF MORE CLDS NE
TO BREAKS DEVELOPING SW...COULD LEAD TO VERY INTENSE THERMAL PACKING
THRU HEART OF CWA ON SAT AFTN.  WIND WL CONTINUE TO BE QUITE STRONG
THRU NIGHT WITH LLJ OF 50-60 KTS.

A LOT MORE QUESTIONS AS TO WHERE BNDRY WL LIE AND WHERE THE BEST
THREAT OF CONVECTION SETS UP FROM LTR SUN INTO MON. NAM APPEARS TO
REALLY WRAP UP LEADING WAVE TOO INTENSELY...AND FOLLOWED MORE MODEST
CANADIAN/GFS TRENDS...SUPPORTED BY 12Z ECMWF.  JET ENTRANCE REGION
SET UP TO INTERACT WITH SLOW MOVING FRONTAL BNDRY...AND SHUD BE VERY
EFFECTIVE IN PCPN DEVELOPMENT SUN NIGHT. EXPECT EARLY DAY ACTION TO
WKN...BUT PERSISTENT DIV Q LINGERS MUCH OF THE DAY ACRS BNDRY...SO
WL KEEP MORE BROAD MID RANGE POPS. ANOTHER IMPULSE LIFTS UP LTR
AFTN/EVNG...AND SHUD ENHANCE COVERAGE AND INTENSITY OF PCPN ALG
BNDRY LT AFTN TOWARD KYKN/KSUX AREAS...EXPANDING N AND E DURING
EVNG. THERE IS A RISK FOR SOME SEVERE...BUT MUCH MORE CONDITIONAL
ON AFTN RECOVERY THAN SAT.

SFC BNDRY MOVES SE ACRS THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA SUN NIGHT...LEAVING
FAR ERN CWA EARLY MONDAY. ADDITIONAL ENERGY IN STRONG MID LVL FRONTAL
ZONE SHUD KEEP THREAT FOR SHRA GOING ALNG/POSTFRONTAL...WITH THUNDER
MORE CONFINED TOWARD SE. WL ATTEMPT TO DRAW IN A BAND OF COOLER AIR
JUST POSTFRONTAL TO COINCIDE WITH PCPN/CLOUDS.

IN THE EXTENDED RANGE...NOT SURE HOW MUCH FAITH TO PUT IN ANY DETAILS
IN MODELS THAT HAVE BEEN CONVECTIVE FOR DAYS BEFORE. 00Z GFS ENSEMBLE
MEAN 500MB STD DEVIATION IS STRONGLY SKEWED TO THE LEADING SIDE OF
TROUGH ON MON NIGHT INTO TUE AS EVACUATES TO E...AND LOW WITHIN
TRAILING TROUGH. THIS SUGGEST THAT THE HANGBACK IS A STRONGLY
CONSISTENT FEATURE...WITH MUCH SUPPORT FROM OTHER MEMBERS OF THE
SUPERENSEMBLE.  THIS FEATURE SLIDES BY WED AND WED NIGHT...BUT LATEST
GFS NOW MUCH FASTER WITH A TUE/TUE NIGHT PUSH. HELD THE LINE ON
EARLIER COLLABORATED TIMING.  FRONTAL ZONE SETTLES SOUTHWARD RIGHT
BEHIND THE SYSTEM WED NIGHT...AND THEN WL BE IN PLACE FOR WLY FLOW
SYSTEM TO INTERACT FRIDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...
IFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST MAINLY EAST OF I29 TNGT WITH STRATUS
AND SCT IFR VSBYS IN FOG AND SCT -SHRA. MVFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL
WEST OF I29...BUT WITH AREAS OF IFR IN OCNL TSRA AND LOW CIGS AND BR
DVLPG.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR SOUTHEAST SOUTH DAKOTA...
SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA...NORTHWEST IOWA...AND NORTHEAST NEBRASKA.

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

THUNDERSTORMS...
THE BAND OF MODERATE TO HEAVY SHOWERS PRODUCING AROUND AN INCH
RAINFALL ALONG THE INTERSTATE 29 CORRIDOR THIS MORNING...WILL
MOVE NORTHEASTWARD THROUGH NORTHWEST IOWA AND SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA
AND WEAKEN SOME THIS AFTERNOON.

MORE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DEVELOP WEST OF THE JAMES
RIVER TONIGHT...THEN SPREAD EAST AND NORTHEAST. SOME OF THE
STORMS MAY PRODUCE HAIL THE SIZE OF PENNIES UP TO GOLF
BALL...WEST OF A LINE FROM DE SMET TO YANKTON. FURTHER EAST...THE
ATMOSPHERE BECOMES INCREASINGLY STABLE. THEREFORE...SEVERE STORMS
ARE NOT EXPECTED TO THE EAST. HOWEVER...MORE HEAVY RAIN WILL BE
POSSIBLE WITH LOCALIZED RAINFALL AMOUNTS OVER AN
INCH...ESPECIALLY IN SOUTH DAKOTA.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY

FOR THIS WEEKEND...SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK
FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE AREA. THE MAIN SEVERE WEATHER
THREAT WOULD ONCE AGAIN BE HAIL...POSSIBLY UP TO THE SIZE OF
QUARTERS. HOWEVER...WHAT IS MORE CONCERNING IS A POTENTIAL FOR
HEAVY RAIN....WITH NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AND
TRAINING ECHOES. THIS WILL BE MONITORED FOR FLOODING POTENTIAL AS
THE WEEKEND PROGRESSES.

THUNDERSTORMS WILL REMAIN IN THE AREA SUNDAY...AND POSSIBLY INTO
SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY. SOME OF THESE STORMS COULD POTENTIALLY
BE SEVERE. WHILE TIMING AND LOCATION ARE UNCERTAIN AT THIS
TIME...THERE WILL ALSO BE POTENTIAL FOR REPEATED RAINS TO PRODUCE
AREAS OF HEAVY RAINFALL.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL BE POSSIBLE AFTER 9 PM WEST OF A LINE
FROM
DE SMET TO YANKTON SOUTH DAKOTA.
