NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
905 PM CDT TUE JUN 22 2010

.DISCUSSION...

WARM FRONT PRESENTLY SITUATED THROUGH SOUTHEASTERN NEBRASKA THROUGH
CENTRAL IOWA...LYING JUST TO THE SOUTHEAST OF OUR CWA. LOW
PRESSURE/SECONDARY BOUNDARY LOCATED THROUGH CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA
WITH A COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS...SOME SEVERE...EXTENDING FROM NORTH
CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA INTO NORTH CENTRAL NEBRASKA AT THIS TIME...AND
BEARING DOWN ON OUR CWA. INCREASED POPS OVER PORTIONS OF OUR AREA
WITH THE MCS MOST LIKELY TRACKING EASTWARD ACROSS OUR CWA OVERNIGHT.
OTHERWISE...ONLY MINOR EDITS MADE DUE TO IMPENDING SEVERE WEATHER.
UPDATES OUT.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...

BATCH OF ELEVATED CONVECTION NEAR KBBW AT 20Z LIFTING TO NORTHEAST
AND SHOULD BE LOCATED NEAR KSUX AFTER 22Z.  18Z KOMA SOUNDING
INDICATED THIS AREA STILL HAS A FAIRLY STRONG CAP...AND HAVE REDUCED
POPS THIS EVENING DOWN TO 30 PERCENT ACROSS NORTHWEST IOWA.  THIS IS
IN CONTRAST TO THE HRRR MODEL...WHICH SUGGEST CONVECTION MOVING INTO
THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF THE FORECAST AREA AT 20Z. SUBTLE WARM FRONT
LIFTING NORTH ACROSS NEBRASKA...LOCATED SOMEWHERE NEAR KOFK-KDNS
WITH GUSTY SOUTHEAST WINDS INCREASING SOUTH OF THE FRONT. IF A STORM
IS ABLE TO BECOME SURFACE BASED ACROSS NORTHWEST IOWA THIS
EVENING...STEEP LAPSE RATE ALOFT SHOULD ALLOW THE STORMS TO BECOME
SEVERE FAIRLY RAPIDLY PRODUCING LARGE HAIL AND THE POTENTIAL FOR A
TORNADO OR TWO.

FURTHER OFF TO THE WEST...CU FIELD DEVELOPING FROM KVTN TO KATY
ALONG STATIONARY FRONT. AS UPPER LEVEL WAVE MOVING OUT OF THE
PANHANDLE OF NEBRASKA LIFTS TO THE NORTHEAST...THIS SHOULD PROVIDE
SUFFICIENT LIFT TO CAUSE STORMS TO DEVELOP ACROSS CENTRAL NEBRASKA
INTO CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA IN THE 00-02Z TIME FRAME.  THESE STORMS
ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP INTO A WELL DEVELOPED TRAILING STRATIFORM
SQUALL LINE...WITH A STRONG POTENTIAL FOR DAMAGING WINDS. AS THE LOW
LEVEL JET INCREASES TO 30-40 KNOTS...EFFECTIVE TOTAL SHEAR IN EXCESS
OF 55 KNOTS...EXPECT STORMS TO CREATE DAMAGING WINDS IN EXCESS OF 70
MPH.  NIGHT SHIFT WILL NEED TO KEEP AN EYE ON POTENTIAL OF A WAKE
LOW DEVELOPING ON THE BACK EDGE OF SQUALL LINE. /BT

STRONG SPRINGLIKE UPR WAVE MOVES EWD OVER CWA WED...AND MODELS STILL
SHOW LINGERING SHRA MOVG OVER MAINLY NERN HLF CWA IN THE MRNG...WITH
A SLIGHT CHC OF INSTABLITY -TSRA IN THE AFTN. THIS WAVE DRAWS IN
RELATIVELY COOLER AND GRADUALLY DRIER AIR WITH BRISK NWLY FLOW DURG
DAY. PLEASANT HIGH PRES SETTLES SEWD OVER CWA WED NGT AND THU MRNG
WITH DECENT RADIATIONAL COOLING. WILL BE A NICE BREAK FROM AIR
CONDITIONING FOR WED THRU THU NGT BEFORE SLY FLOW OF WARMER AND MORE
HUMID AIR MOVES BACK IN FOR FRI WITH STG SLY FLOW. APPEARS TO BE
ENUF MID LVL INSTABILITY WITH RETURN FLOW TO KEEP IN CHCS OF TSTMS
DVLPG OVER NWRN HLF CWA LATER THU NGT...MOVG THRU NRN CWA FRI MRNG
BEFORE CAP TAKES OVER. THEN A DECENT WAVE MOVES EWD OVER NRN PLAINS
THIS WEEKEND BRINGING CHCS OF TSTMS NRN CWA FRI NGT INTO SAT...AND
OVER ERN CWA SAT NGT WITH CDFNT...PROBABLY A LIT SLOWER THAN MODELS.
THEN SUN THRU TUES SHOULD FINALLY BE ON THE DRY AND WARM SIDE WITH
BUILDING UPR HIGH BUT WITH INCRG HUMIDITY WITH CORN EVAPORATION./
