.DISCUSSION...
VERY COMPLEX FCST THIS GO AROUND...WITH A LOT OF THINGS GOING ON
THIS WEEK. IN THE NEAR TERM...SOME SHRA AND ISOLD TS IS FOUND IN ERN
ND AND A SMALL PART OF NW MN. THIS ACTIVITY IS DRIFTING SEWD. THERE
IS A PRETTY DECENT MID LVL WAVE PICKED UP WELL BY THE GFS/NAM H7-H5
-DIV Q FIELD...AND ALSO WITH A LOT OF MID LVL CLOUDS IN ERN ND AND
NW MN. THIS FORCING COMES DOWN THRU THE ERN HALF OF OUR FA THIS
AFTN...THEN REMAINS RATHER STNRY IN THIS AREA THROUGH TONIGHT. THE
ASSOCIATED SFC BOUNDARY SHOULD OOZE DOWN AND STALL NEAR THE NRN
FRINGE OF OUR FA LATE TODAY AND TONIGHT...MARKING IN TIME WHAT WL BE
A PRETTY DECENT WRMFNT. WITH INSTABILITY OFF THE SFC NOT TOO BAD
THIS AFTN AND EVENING...HAVE ISOLD TO CHC POPS THRU THE NE HALF OF
OUR FA ALIGNED ALONG THE SFC FRONT IN OUR NORTH...AND THE BEST QG
FORCING THRU OUR EAST. THEN ONLY KEPT SLGT CHC POPS AFTER MIDNIGHT
TONIGHT ALONG OUR NORTH AND EXTREME EAST AS THE FORCING GREATLY
WEAKENS. CURRENTLY AM THINKING THE SW HALF OF OUR FA WL BE A BIT TOO
CAPPED OFF LATE TODAY AND THIS EVENING...FURTHER AWAY FROM THE FOCUS
MECHANISM...THEREFORE KEPT POPS OUT OF THOSE AREAS BOTH TODAY AND
TONIGHT. ALTERED OUR GOING MAX AND MIN TEMPS VERY LITTLE TODAY AND

PAST FEW RUNS.

ON TUE...BOTH THE NAM AND GFS LIFT THE SFC WRMFNT NWD SOME. HOWEVER
THERE IS JUST ENUF PERSISTENT INSTABILITY...COUPLED WITH A LINGERING
SUBTLE WIND SHIFT FM THE S TO SE AT THE SFC TO H85...TO WARRANT CHC
AFTN POPS IN OUR NORTH...AND ANGLING DOWN TOWARD THE IA GRTLKS.
SMALL POPS ARE WARRANTED IN OUR SRN HALF JUST FOR ISOLD CONVECTION
WHICH MAY BREW DUE TO BROAD WAA ASCENT. BUT THE MAIN ACTION WL BE
TUE NIGHT...AS ALL DETERMINISTIC MODELS CONT TO POINT AT A STRONG
S/W MOVG THRU THIS AREA. THE NAM AND ECMWF ARE THE MOST CONSISTENT
WITH EACH OTHER...BRINGING A BULK OF THE QPF RIGHT ACROSS THE MIDDLE
PART OF OUR FA FROM NW TO SE. THIS CERTAINLY CANNOT BE IGNORED AS
THESE MODELS HAVE FAIRED BETTER WHEN PREDICTING CONVECTIVE
DEVELOPMENT AS OPPOSED TO THE GFS/GEM THE PAST WEEK OR SO IN MY
OPINION. WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO GO LIKELY IN FUTURE SHIFTS FOR MOST
OF OUR LOCATIONS TUE NIGHT...ESP IF THE GFS COMES AROUND TO A
STRONGER SOLN. HUMIDITY WILL BE INCREASING ON TUE...AND GUIDANCE DEW
POINTS LOOKED TOO LOW.

ON WED...KEPT SOME LOW POPS IN OUR ERN AREAS DURING THE MORNING DUE
TO THE ANTICIPATED DEPARTING MCS...AND SLGT CHC POPS CWA WIDE IN THE
AFTN WITH PERSISTENT WAA AND INSTABILITY WHICH MAY GIVE ISOLD
ACTIVITY. KEPT THE TREND OF KEEPING SFC DEW POINTS ABV GUIDANCE
VALUES WITH THE SLY FLOW.

IN THE WED NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT TIME FRAME...SOME FAIRLY
LARGE TIMING DISCREPANCIES EXIST BETWEEN THE MODELS IN HOW THEY
HANDLE THE NEXT SFC FRONT/MID LVL WAVE AS IT COMES OVR THE RIDGE.
THE NAM AND GFS ARE IN ONE CAMP...PRETTY SIMILAR...IN BRINGING THE
CRUX OF THE S/W ACROSS OUR FA LATE WED NIGHT...AND LINGERING IN OUR
EAST THUR MORNING. THE ECMWF IS 6 TO 12 HOURS SLOWER. FOR NOW...
OPTED TO BLEND THE TIMING OF THE TWO DIFFERENT SCENARIOS WHICH ALSO
KEPT PRETTY GOOD CONTINUITY WITH OUR GOING GRIDS. THE SFC FRONT
ITSELF MAY TRY TO WORK THRU OUR FA THUR AND THUR EVENING BEFORE
HANGING UP IN OUR SE. THIS IS SO COMMON WITH THE OVERALL MID AND
UPPER WINDS REMAINING OUT OF THE SW. SO THE SFC FRONT SHOULD QUICKLY
ENTER OUR FAR WEST THUR MORNING...THEN KEEP SLOWING DOWN AS IT TRIES
TO MOVE EWD WITH THE ASSOCIATED S/W PASSAGE. KEPT CHC POPS GOING FOR
MUCH OF FA WED NIGHT PER THE WAVE TIMING OF THE NAM/GFS...BUT
LINGERED CHC POPS IN OUR EAST THURSDAY MORNING JUST IN CASE THE SFC
FRONT HANGS UP A BIT COUPLED WITH THE DEPARTING UPPER DYNAMICS PER
THE ECMWF. I ALSO BOOSTED MAX TEMPS A BIT ON THURSDAY AS EVEN THE
FASTER AND COOLER GFS IS STILL STUBBORNLY WARM WITH ITS H85 TEMP
FCST. NOT MUCH OF A SFC CDFNT AS FAR AS TEMPS OUR CONCERNED.  /MJF

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

.DAY ONE...TODAY AND TONIGHT

THUNDERSTORMS...
A FEW THUNDERSTORMS MAY DEVELOP THIS AFTERNOON AND
TONIGHT...MAINLY ALONG AND EAST OF A HURON SOUTH DAKOTA...TO
SIOUX FALLS...TO STORM LAKE IOWA LINE. STORMS SHOULD REMAIN BELOW
SEVERE LIMITS.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY

A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXISTS TUESDAY
EVENING...EXCLUDING AREAS ALONG AND EAST OF A SIOUX CITY TO
SPENCER IOWA LINE. SUPERCELL DEVELOPMENT ALONG AN ADVANCING UPPER
DISTURBANCE IS POSSIBLE IN CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA TUESDAY
AFTERNOON...WHICH MAY THEN EVOLVE INTO A COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS
TUESDAY EVENING IN THIS AREA. AS THE COMPLEX MOVES EASTWARD...IT
MAY LOSE ENOUGH ENERGY TO KEEP STORMS FROM BEING SEVERE OVERNIGHT
OVER MOST OF NORTHWEST IOWA.

ONE OTHER ITEM TO CONSIDER...IS IF AREAS OF HEAVY RAIN DEVELOP
ALONG AN AXIS ROUGHLY FROM MITCHELL TO CANTON SOUTH DAKOTA. THESE
AREAS HAVE RECEIVED WIDESPREAD 1 TO 3 INCH AMOUNTS OF RAIN
RECENTLY...AND ANY ADDITIONAL RAINFALL OF OVER AN INCH COULD
PRODUCE FLOODING.

MORE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE WITH A FRONTAL PASSAGE DURING THE
MIDDLE OF THE WEEK. THEREFORE ISOLATED SEVERE WEATHER COULD ALSO
OCCUR WITH THIS FRONT...MAINLY WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

SPOTTER ACTIVATION WILL NOT BE NEEDED TODAY AND TONIGHT.
