AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND FORKS ND
839 PM CDT SUN JUN 28 2009

.DISCUSSION...
WINDS CONTINUE TO SUBSIDE...AND WE WILL ALLOW ALL WIND HEADLINES
TO EXPIRE ON TIME AT 02Z. OTHER THAN THAT...THE MOIST WRAPAROUND
FLOW CONTINUES INTO THE NORTHEAST...AND WILL HOLD ONTO SOME LOW
POPS THROUGH TONIGHT. WILL CHECK OVER TEMPS AND THE OTHER
GRIDS...WITH MINIMAL CHANGES EXPECTED.

&&

.AVIATION...
WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH THE PROGRESSION OF MVFR CLOUDS NEAR THE
UPPER LOW MOVING INTO THE VALLEY. HAVE INDICATED THE THREAT FOR
LOWER CIGS IN THE NORTH AND EAST LATER TONIGHT AND MONDAY
MORNING...WITH WINDS TURNING MORE NORTHERLY AND SLOWLY DECREASING.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 549 PM CDT SUN JUN 28 2009/

DISCUSSION...
WINDS ARE INTO ADVISORY CRITERIA IN THE EAST...AND MODEL SOUNDINGS
INDICATE GUSTS TO NEAR 50 MPH WILL CONTINUE AS A PRESSURE RISE MAX
WORKS INTO THE EAST. THEREFORE...HAVE HOISTED A WIND ADVISORY FOR
THE EAST THROUGH 02Z.

AVIATION...

GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS WILL DIMINISH QUICKLY EARLY THIS EVENING
(BY 02Z) AND MOST OF THE CUMULUS OVER ERN ND INTO WCNTRL MN WILL
DISSIPATE. SOME THREAT THAT THE FAR EASTERN AND NORTHEAST FCST
AREA (ROX-BJI-PKD) MAY STAY WITH BROKEN CUMULUS CLOUDS THRU THE
NIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING AS THICKER LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WORKS IT
WAY SOUTH ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE UPPER LOW NOW JUST NORTH OF
INTERNATIONAL FALLS. FOR THIS REASON KEPT PREV FCSTR THINKING OF
MVFR CIGS TONIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING FOR BJI TAF...ALTHOUGH LOWER
CLOUDS MAY MOVE A BIT FURTHER TO THE WEST AND SOUTH SO MAY UPDATE
THIS IN THE 00Z TAFS.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 318 PM CDT SUN JUN 28 2009/

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY

PRIMARY FORECAST CHALLENGE INCLUDES TEMPERATURES AND CLOUD TRENDS
ASSOCIATED WITH DEPARTING UPPER LOW. GFS/NAM/ECMWF/GEM SHORT-TERM
SOLUTIONS IN EXCELLENT AGREEMENT...SO WILL USE A MODEL BLEND FOR
THIS FORECAST PACKAGE. HOWEVER...DID LEAN TOWARDS SREF/MAV GUIDANCE
FOR DAYTIME HIGH TEMPERATURES.

A FEW SITES (KFGN/KHCO/KBJI) ACROSS NORTHWEST MINNESOTA HAVE
BARELY REACHED WIND ADVISORY CRITERIA (SUSTAINED 30 MPH AND/OR
GUSTS TO 45 MPH) THIS AFTERNOON. HOWEVER...DECIDED NOT TO ISSUE
ADVISORY GIVEN ISOLATED REPORTS AND WIND SPEEDS ON THE LOW-END OF
CRITERIA. THE VAST MAJORITY OF SURFACE OBSERVATION SITES REMAIN IN
THE 20 TO 30 MPH RANGE AND WINDS...ALONG WITH THERMALLY-DRIVEN
CUMULUS WILL DISSIPATE WITH LOSS OF SOLAR THIS EVENING. WINDS WILL
REMAIN ELEVATED ENOUGH OVERNIGHT TO PREVENT MAXIMUM NOCTURNAL
COOLING...RESULTING IN LOWS GENERALLY IN THE LOW 50S.

ALL MODELS SHOW STACKED UPPER LOW ACROSS SOUTHWEST ONTARIO TO SLOWLY
DROP SOUTHEASTWARD THE NEXT FEW DAYS...CENTERED NEAR LAKE HURON
BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. AT THE SAME TIME...A WEST COAST RIDGE BUILDS
ACROSS THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST AND NORTHERN PLAINS...KEEPING THE
FORECAST AREA IN NORTH-NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. AT THE SURFACE...HIGH
PRESSURE OVER WESTERN HUDSON BAY WILL BUILD TO THE SOUTH...NOSING
INTO EASTERN NORTH DAKOTA AND NORTHWEST MINNESOTA BEGINNING
MONDAY. THIS HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM LOOKS TO DOMINATE THE REGIONAL
WEATHER PATTERN THROUGH WEDNESDAY...KEEPING CONDITIONS MOSTLY TO
PARTLY SUNNY AND DRY.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE A BIT TRICKY...THOUGH...WITH THE FORECAST
AREA STUCK BETWEEN THE TROUGH TO THE EAST AND RIDGE TO THE WEST.
RECENT MODEL RUNS SUGGEST A COOLER LOW-LEVEL THERMAL PROFILE SO
DROPPED TEMPERATURES A FEW DEGREES THROUGH WEDNESDAY WITH DAYTIME
HIGHS PRIMARILY IN THE MID-70S. IN ADDITION...SOME LOW-LEVEL
MOISTURE MAY CONTINUE TO WRAP AROUND THE GREAT LAKES LOW WITH
CONTINUED CLOUDS MAINLY ACROSS NORTH-CENTRAL MINNESOTA AND AREAS
EAST.

OVERALL...A PLEASANT LAST FEW DAYS OF JUNE.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT SUNDAY

THE UPPER LOW OVER THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES WILL MOVE EAST...WITH A
MORE ZONAL WEST-NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE NRN PLAINS AND SRN CANADA
FOR LATE IN THE WEEK AND THE WEEKEND.  WHILE MODELS ARE IN FAIR
AGREEMENT IN THE OVERALL PATTERN...THEY DISAGREE IN THE STRENGTH AND
NUMBER OF POSSIBLE UPPER AIR DISTURBANCES THAT WILL AFFECT THE AREA
IN THIS WNW UPPER AIR PATTERN.  SOME GENERAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE
CANADIAN/ECMWF/GFS IN SHOWING SOME LOW THREAT FOR CONVECTION IN THE
FRI-SUN TIME PERIOD SO CONSENSUS OF SURROUNDING OFFICES WAS TO GO
ALONG WITH HPC 20 POPS FOR THIS PERIOD. OVERALL TEMPS LOOK NEAR
OR JUST A TAD BELOW NORMAL.
