Area forecast discussion, Jun 24, 2:15 PM MDT, 3 hours 29 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BISMARCK ND
315 PM CDT WED JUN 24 2009

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...

FORECAST CONCERNS IN THE SHORT TERM REVOLVE AROUND THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT. MODELS ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD
AGREEMENT WITH SOME DISAGREEMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF MOISTURE AVAILABLE
TONIGHT AND AGAIN TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...

FORECAST CONCERNS IN THE SHORT TERM REVOLVE AROUND THUNDERSTORM
CHANCES TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT. MODELS ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD
AGREEMENT WITH SOME DISAGREEMENT IN THE AMOUNT OF MOISTURE AVAILABLE
TONIGHT AND AGAIN ON THURSDAY/FRIDAY FOR SEVERE CONVECTION.

CURRENTLY...A TROUGH/MOISTURE AXIS ALONG THE ND/MT BORDER. DEWPOINTS
IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S ALONG THE MISSOURI RIVER AND SLOWLY MOVING
NORTHWARD. THE STRONG RIDGE IS STILL IN PLACE ALONG THE SOUTHERN US
WITH TROUGH IN THE WEST.  A WEAK SHORTWAVE MOVING THROUGH THE
WESTERLY FLOW WILL INTERACT WITH  MOISTURE TROUGH AXIS IN THE LATE
AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING TO BRING THUNDERSTORMS TO THE REGION.
LOCAL RADARS HAVE ALREADY DETECTED CONVECTIVE SHOWERS IN THE
NORTHWEST. SPC HAS PLACED MOST OF WESTERN AND CENTRAL NORTH
DAKOTA IN SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER WITH THE MAIN THREATS
BEING WINDS AND HAIL. SURFACE BASED CAPE IS EXPECTED TO BE
RELATIVELY WEAK WITH THE HIGHEST BEING OVER THE SOUTHEAST THIS
AFTERNOON. THE 06 UTC GFS40 AND THE 13 UTC RUC MODELS SUGGEST
HIGH MOST UNSTABLE CAPE IN EXCESS OF 400 J/KG LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND THIS EVENING WITH A SMALL RIBBON ON 0 TO 3 KM HELICITY NEAR
100 M2/S2 ALONG AND 50 MILES EITHER SIDE OF A LINE FROM BURKE TO
MOUNTRAIL TO DUNN AND INTO BOWMAN COUNTY WHICH WOULD SUGGEST STORM
ROTATION IS POSSIBLE THIS EVENING. BULK SHEAR IS ALSO HIGH WITH
VALUES BETWEEN 40 TO 50 KTS. THE 4KM WRF REFLECTIVITY WHICH HAS
SHOWN SOME SKILL IN FORECASTING THUNDERSTORMS SHOW STORMS ACROSS
WESTERN AND CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA FROM 21 TO 03 UTC. THE MOST
UNSTABLE CAPE AND 0 TO 3 KM HELICITY ALINE VERY NICELY THIS
EVENING WHICH SUGGEST DECENT CONFIDENCE.

AFTER TONIGHT...MODELS FORECAST THE 500 HPA RIDGING TO BUILD INTO
THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND SHIFT THE RIDGE AXIS INTO CENTRAL NORTH
DAKOTA. THE WARMEST DAY SO FAR THIS YEAR IS EXPECTED TOMORROW ON
THURSDAY WITH THE UPPER 80S IN EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA WITH
MID TO UPPER 90S ACROSS THE WESTERN THIRD. NEAR RECORD HIGHS FOR
THE DATE MAY BE APPROACHED AT SOME REPORTING STATIONS. AS THE
RIDGE AXIS SHIFTS EASTWARD ON THURSDAY FLOW ALOFT BECOMES
SOUTHWESTERLY WITH THE GFS AND ECMWF BEING IN DISAGREEMENT ON HOW
MUCH MOISTURE IS AVAILABLE BEFORE A COLD FRONT/TROUGH APPROACHES
THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT. THE ECMWF IS SLIGHTLY MORE AGGRESSIVE
BRINGING THE MOISTURE NORTHWARD WHICH WOULD INCREASE CAPE VALUES
BU THE GFS IS DRIER. GOOD UPPER LEVEL SUPPORTS IN PLACE SO WILL
LEAVE A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST.

SLIGHTLY BETTER CAPE IS AVAILABLE ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS
THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH CENTRAL PORTIONS OF THE CWA.  AGAIN
MODELS SUGGEST CAPE VALUES BETWEEN 1 AND 2K.  ALONG A LINE FROM MOT
TO BIS.  DECENT BULK SHEAR IS IN PLACE BETWEEN 30 TO 40KTS SO SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS MAY BE POSSIBLE AGAIN ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING
IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA.

UPPER LEVEL TROUGHING DEPARTING THE REGION ON SATURDAY WHICH WOULD
ALLOW SOME WEAK RIDGING TO BUILD IN FOR THE EARLY PART OF THE
WEEKEND WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES.

.LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY
AN UPPER LEVEL LOW WILL MOVE SLOWLY SOUTHEAST SUNDAY AND MONDAY
WITH AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE DEVELOPING OVER EASTERN MONTANA BY
MONDAY NIGHT. THIS SHOULD KEEP SUNDAY AND MONDAY DRY WITH
TEMPERATURES AT OR A LITTLE BELOW NORMAL. THE ECMWF MOVES ANOTHER
SHORT WAVE THROUGH THE RIDGE TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...WHILE THE
GFS DOESNT. FOR NOW WILL TREND WITH THE ECMWF AND BRING A SLIGHT
CHANCE OF TSTMS TO THE FORECAST MONDAY NIGHT CONTINUING THROUGH
WEDNESDAY.

.BIS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
