Area forecast discussion, Mar 23, 3:55 PM CDT, 2 hours 22 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
355 PM CDT MON MAR 23 2009

.DISCUSSION...
NOT MANY CHANGES IN THINKING FROM THIS MORNINGS AFD...WITH RESPECT
TO THE FORECAST THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT. THUNDERSTORMS HAVE
DEVELOPED ALONG AND N OF THE WARM FRONT AND ALONG THE DRY LINE
ACROSS CNTRL AND ERN NEBRASKA THIS AFTERNOON. AS UPPER WAVE LIFTS N
THIS AFTERNOON...THUNDERSTORMS WILL SPREAD INTO THE MO RIVER VALLEY.
STRONG VEERING IN THE LOW LEVELS ALONG THE MO VALLEY SUPPORT THE
POSSIBILITY OF A FEW TORNADOES. HIGHER SEVERE POTENTIAL REMAINS WITH
HAIL AND STRAIGHT LINE WINDS. MAINLY EXPECTING QUARTER SIZED HAIL
OR LESS AND WIND GUSTS AS HIGH AS 70 MPH WITH SOME OF THE STRONGER
STORMS. SEVERE THREAT TO SLOWLY DIMINISH THIS EVENING AS STORMS
CONTINUE NWRD. THREAT RAPIDLY DECREASES N OF I 90 AND EAST OF
HIGHWAY 75. WILL ALSO HAVE TO WATCH THE POTENTIAL FOR FLASH FLOODING
SOUTH OF I90...MAINLY IN SE SD ALONG THE MISSOURI VALLEY. FLASH
FLOODING WILL BE LIKELY SHOULD STORMS TRAIN ACROSS THE SAME AREA.
EXPANDED AND EXTENDED THE WIND ADVISORY THROUGH THIS EVENING. WINDS
HAVE BEEN MARGINAL AT BEST FOR AN ADVISORY TO THIS POINT...BUT
CONCERN IS WITH SYNOPTIC LOW LEVEL COOLING AND PRECIPITATION COOLING
BRINGING STRONG LLJ TO THE SFC THIS EVENING.

TWO MAIN CHANGES TO PREV FCST WAS TO UP THE POPS WITH WRAPAROUND
PRECIP EXCPD FURTHER SE IN CWA TUE AFTN...AND TO UP THE POPS SOME
MORE IN THE EXTD. STG UPR LOW WILL DUMBELL AROUND CWA TUE WITH RAIN
MIXING WITH OR CHGG TO WET SNOW WRN CWA...AND A COUPLE OF INCHES
ARE QUITE PSBL ESP IN HIGHER ELEVATIONS FM WEST OF HURON TO ABV
CHAMBERLAIN TO GREGORY COUNTY. BRISK SLY WINDS ERN CWA WILL
GRADUALLY SHIFT TO STG WNWLY FLOW OF COLDER AIR TO THE WEST OF TROF.
WRAPAROUND -SHRA CHGG TO -SHSN PULLING OFF THE NEWD THRU NRN CWA
TUE NGT WITH STG NWLY FLOW OF COLDER AIR IN THE CWA. WED A NICE
TRANSITION DAY WITH MIXED OUT AND MILDER WLY FLOW. NAM GUID TOO
COLD. THEN MODELS STILL HAVE MAJOR CONTINUITY ISSUES FROM THURSDAY
THRU THE WEEKEND. 12Z RUNS BACK TO THE SE BIAS...BUT NO REASON TO
THINK LATER RUNS WILL NOT GO BACK TO THE NW TRACK WITH TIME...SO
KEPT DECENT POPS IN THE SERN HLF CWA. FIRST OF WAVE OF MIXED PRECIP
SHOULD STILL MOVE ENEWD INTO CWA LATE WED NGT THRU THU NGT...BUT
THEN ITS A QUESTION OF WAITING FOR MAIN UPR LOW TO EJECT NEWD OVER
THE CNTRL PLAINS. EITHER WAY...IT WILL BE ON THE COOL SIDE OF GUID.

&&

.AVIATION...
UPPER LEVEL AND SFC LEVEL LOW PRESSURE CURRENTLY OVER WRN NEBRASKA
TO LIFT INTO NE SD LATE TONIGHT. STRONG SFC GRADIENT WILL PRODUCE
STRONG LOW LEVEL WINDS. WINDS WILL SHIFT FROM THE S THIS
EVENING...TO THE WEST LATE TONIGHT WITH THE PASSAGE OF A COLD FRONT.
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MOVING FROM THE MISSOURI VALLEY
THIS AFTERNOON INTO SW MINNESOTA BY THIS EVENING. SOME OF THESE
STORMS WILL BE SEVERE...PRODUCING STRONG WINDS AND LARGE
HAIL...ESPECIALLY INTO THE MISSOURI VALLEY. OTHERWISE MAINLY IFR TO
VFR ACROSS THE AREA.
