AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
935 PM CDT THU JUL 29 2010

.DISCUSSION...
HI TO VERY HI POPS FOR TSTMS LOOKS GOOD FOR THE REST OF TONIGHT.
CURRENT STORMS WITH VERY HEAVY RAIN SW OF HON HAVE SHOWED SOME
DECENT SHEAR BESIDES THE HEAVY RAIN BUT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE SEVERE.
THIS SHOULD BE THE TREND FOR THE REST OF TONIGHT...SEVERE THREAT
MINIMAL BUT HEAVY RAIN AND FLOODING POTENTIAL WILL BE WATCHED. AS
NIGHT GOES ON COVERAGE SHOULD BE FAIRLY HIGH OVER MOST OF FORECAST
AREA...TENDING TO THE E LATER ON. CURRENT COMPLEX SEEMS TO BE
DRAWING A BEAD ACROSS ECNTRL SD NEAR OR JUST N OF FSD INTO SWRN MN
AND PSBLY FAR NRN IA. AT LEAST THE AREA NEAR THE MO RVR THAT WAS HIT
EARLIER TDA WITH HEAVY RAIN MAY ESCAPE THE WORST FROM HERE OUT
BETWEEN CURRENT AREAS TO THE N AND IN NE. TEMPS AND WINDS NOT A BIG
PROBLEM. ACTVTY SHOULD DECREASE FROM THE W AFTER MIDNIGHT BUT MAY
LINGER TO DAYBREAK EASTERN EDGE.

&&

.AVIATION...
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING AROUND/SOUTH OF KHON AT 02Z WILL MOVE
EAST-SOUTHEAST DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. SOME OF THESE STORMS WILL
LIKELY FALL TO MVFR AT TIMES...WITH BRIEF IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE
WITH HEAVIER RAIN. SOME IFR CEILINGS WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE TOMORROW
MORNING AS THE STORMS EXIT...WITH CIGS EXPECTED TO SLOWLY LIFT INTO
MVFR RANGE BY MIDDAY...THEN SCATTER OUT TO VFR CONDITIONS BY LATE
AFTERNOON.   /JH

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
THE SEVERE THREAT LOOKS TO BE DWINDLING A BIT AS THE MORNING AND NOW
AFTERNOON MCS STILL ONGOING. THIS IS REALLY LEFT SOME COOL AIR
BEHIND AND SFC BASED THUNDERSTORMS LOOK PRETTY UNLIKELY. THE
EXCEPTION COULD BE NEAR 9V9 IF A LITTLE MORE RECOVERY CAN TAKE
PLACE THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS OF THE DAY. THERE IS SOME BETTER
RECOVERY TAKING PLACE OVER WESTERN NEBRASKA...SO MAYBE LOOKING AT
THE POTENTIAL FOR DEVELOPMENT IN WESTERN AND SW PARTS OF SD. AFTER
ABOUT 2Z OR 3Z...LLJ BEGINS TO INCREASE AND FOCUS IN CENTRAL SD.
THIS SHOULD AID IN IGNITING SOME ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS WHICH WOULD
LIKELY PROGRESS TO THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST. CAPE PROFILE IS PRETTY
SKINNY AND AROUND 1250 J/KG AND WITH ONLY ABOUT 35 KNOTS OF
EFFECTIVE 1 TO 6 KM BULK SHEAR...DO NOT EXPECT MUCH OF A SEVERE
THREAT. HOWEVER...WITH PWAT VALUES CLIMBING TO 1.50 INCHES TO 2
INCHES...HEAVY RAIN WILL AGAIN THREATEN. THE 850-750MB MOISTURE
TRANSPORT VECTORS REALLY STRENGTHEN AND FOCUS ON SE SD AND SW MN
FROM ABOUT 6Z TO 12Z WHICH SHOULD BE THE BEST THREAT FOR
THUNDERSTORMS AND HEAVY RAINFALL. TEMPERATURES WILL BE MILD WITH
LOWS MAINLY IN THE MID AND UPPER 60S. /08

SHOULD SEE THUNDERSTORM MAINLY EAST OF I-29 FRI MORNING BUT THAT IS
SOMEWHAT DEPENDENT ON EVOLUTION OF THUNDERSTORM TONIGHT. COULD SEE
LINGERING ACTIVITY INTO NW IA INTO FRI AFTERNOON BUT MOST OF THE
AREA WILL BE DRY DURING THIS TIME. A LITTLE CONCERNED ABOUT
THUNDERSTORM REDEVELOPMENT INTO CENTRAL SD LATE FRI AFTERNOON...BUT
THIS WOULD BE PREDICATED ENOUGH CLEARING THAT SFC BASED CONVECTION
CAN FORM. LEFT POPS OUT FRI EVENING THINKING THERE WILL BE ENOUGH OF
A STABLE LAYER TO PREVENT DEVELOPMENT...HOWEVER...MODELS ARE
TRENDING TO JUICER LOW LEVELS...AND THERE IS SOME UPPER LEVEL
SUPPORT WITH AN UPPER LEVEL JET STRADDLING THE FORECAST AREA.
DROPPED HIGH TEMPERATURES TOMORROW...MAINLY IN THE EAST ASSUMING
AREAS OF HEAVY RAIN TONIGHT AND MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES FOR A GOOD
PORTION OF THE DAY.

AFTER FRI EVENING...INDICATIONS ARE FOR DRY CONDITIONS THIS WEEKEND.
WARM SRLY FLOW WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO AGAIN CLIMB INTO THE 80S
EAST AND 90S WEST BEFORE THE NEXT FRONT DROPS INTO THE AREA SUN
NIGHT. CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORM TO INCREASE AS THE FRONT APPROACHES
SUN NIGHT. MAY AGAIN BE LOOKING AT AREAS OF HEAVY RAINFALL BUT TO
FAR OUT TO SPECULATE WHERE OR IF THE HEAVY RAIN WILL FALL. AT THIS
TIME THE THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS SUN NIGHT APPEARS MINIMAL. ACTIVE
WX PATTERN REMAINS RELENTLESS THROUGH NEXT WEEK WITH CHANCES FOR
THUNDERSTORMS EVERY DAY OR TWO. /97
