HUMID AIR BEHIND THE COLD FRONT IN THE DAKOTAS. ..HAASE..

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND SATURDAY...
LARGE THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX WILL IMPACT THE DVN CWA THE REMAINDER OF
THE AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. MAIN THREAT WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS
AS MID LEVEL WINDS STRENGTHEN TO 50 KNOTS. TORRENTIAL RAINS MAY ALSO
PRODUCE FLASH FLOODING. NAM/RAPID REFRESH SEEMS TO NAIL THE
SCENARIO PRETTY GOOD WITH THE THUNDERSTORMS EXITING THE CWA BEFORE
MIDNIGHT. MAY BE ABLE TO CANCEL THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH SOMETIME TONIGHT
DEPENDING ON EVENTUAL CONVECTIVE TRENDS. HEAT HEADLINES WILL ALSO BE
CANCELED.

SATURDAY...COLD FRONT STILL TO ARRIVE SO VERY WARM AND HUMID BUT MAY
BE NOT QUITE AS EXCESSIVE AS THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS. DEPENDING ON
LINGERING CLOUD COVER OR LACK OF WILL DICTATE IF WE APPROACH HEAT
ADVISORY CRITERIA OR NOT. WILL HAVE A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS STILL
ON SATURDAY AHEAD OF THE FRONT. SPC HAS A SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE
EAST OF THE MS RIVER. WILL FORECAST NEAR 90 WITH DEW POINTS IN THE
MID 70S...BUT IF CLOUD COVER LINGERS THEN MAY NOT MAKE IT THAT WARM.

..HAASE..

.LONG TERM...
SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT FRIDAY...
THE COLD ADVECTION ALOFT CERTAINLY GETS GOING CLOSER TO EARLY
SUNDAY...AS SATURDAY NIGHT CONTINUES TO NOW APPEAR MORE AFFECTED BY
A WAVE ROUNDING THE BASE OF THE UPPER TROF. THIS CONTINUES THE TREND
OF GETTING SOME SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORMS ACTIVITY GOING SATURDAY
NIGHT. SEVERAL MESOSCALE MODELS SHOW RATHER VIGOROUS STORMS IN A
MATURE TO DISSIPATING MODE ENTERING THE CWA AT THE BEGINNING OF THE
PERIOD.  HOWEVER...DESPITE THE LATER ARRIVAL...MODELS AND ANALYSIS
STILL SHOW A SEASONALLY STRONG HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BRINGING COOLER
AND MUCH MORE REFRESHING AIR TO THE REGION THROUGH AT LEAST MID
WEEK. TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN HELD CONSISTENT WITH PREVIOUS FORECASTS
AS ATTENTION IS FOCUSED ON THE SHORT TERM TODAY. WE STILL ARE
KEEPING A VERY LOW POP IN FOR TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT FOR A RE
ENFORCING SHOT OF COOLER AIR AND UPPER WAVE....HOWEVER THERE IS
LITTLE IF ANY CONFIDENCE IN ITS PLACEMENT.
