AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD 435 AM CDT SUN JUN 27 2010 .DISCUSSION... LARGE MCS IS FINALLY DEPARTING NWRN IA...BUT LEFT A LOT OF FLOODING TO CONTEND WITH IN CHEROKEE COUNTY...AND PARTS OF BUENA VISTA COUNTY. LATER WE WILL TRY TO FIND OUT FLOODED CONDITIONS FOR EASTERN WOODBURY AND IDA COUNTIES. 88D STORM TOTAL PCPN SHOWS CHEROKEE COUNTY THE FOCUS AREA...WITH 6 TO 9 INCHES COMMON. SOME SURFACE REPORTS ARE INDEED OVER 6 INCHES SO THE ESTIMATES MAY NOT BE TOO BAD. CENTRAL IDA COUNTY SHOWS 4 TO 6 INCHES. FINALLY...MUCH OF BUENA VISTA...SOUTHERN O BRIEN AND SOUTHERN CLAY COUNTIES SHOW A WIDESPREAD 2 TO 5 INCHES OF RAINFALL. AGAIN...THESE ARE 88D ESTIMATES. WENT AHEAD AND ISSUED AN AREAL FLOOD WARNING FOR CHEROKEE AND BUENA VISTA COUNTIES UNTIL 330 PM TODAY WITH NUMEROUS ROADS UNDER WATER AND NOT IMPROVING QUICKLY WITH THE GROUND SUPERSATURATED. AT LEAST FOR A WHILE...TRAVEL IS NOT ADVISED IN CHEROKEE COUNTY. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT OUR STRONG SHORT WAVE AND ASSOCIATED CDFNT ARE SWEEPING THROUGH OUR ERN ZONES AS WE SPEAK...GIVING A QUIET DAY WX WISE FOR THIS AREA. DRIER NW WINDS WILL BE FOUND...RATHER BREEZY IN MANY LOCATIONS. THE ONLY FLY IN THE OINTMENT IS IN E CENTRAL SD AND SW MN...WHERE I PLACED SOME ISOLATED CHANCES FOR TSRA THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. THIS AREA IS UNDER THE STRONGEST INFLUENCE OF AN UPPER TROF MOVG SEWD FROM S CENTRAL CANADA...COUPLED WITH A VERY SUBTLE RR QUAD ENTRANCE REGION OF A JET STREAK IN ND AND NRN MN. BUT THE ACTIVITY WL NOT BE ANY SHOW STOPPER FOR OUTDOOR PLANS. H85 TEMPS CONT TO MIX TO LEVELS OF WIDESPREAD LOWER TO MID 80S. FOR TONIGHT...THE AFOREMENTIONED UPPER TROF MOVES SEWD THRU MN. THIS FEATURE DRAGS A WEAK CDFNT THRU THE FSD FA...AND HAS THE AFFECT OF NOTCHING OUR TEMPERATURES BACK A CATEGORY ON MONDAY. MONDAY WILL BE A VERY PLEASANT DAY. OTHERWISE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE WEAK...A HIGH AMPLITUDE UPPER RIDGE MOVES SLOWLY EWD ACROSS THE MIDDLE PART OF THE COUNTRY. THIS SHOULD KEEP CONDITIONS DRY FOR A CHANGE...POSSIBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH FRIDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE SEASONAL. ONE SMALL THING TO WATCH FOR IS LATE TUESDAY NIGHT IN OUR WRN ZONES...WHERE THE RETURN OF A DECENT LLJ BEGINS. SOMETIMES AT THE ONSLAUGHT OF A STRENGTHENING LLJ...THE WAA IS PRETTY INTENSE AND CAN CAUSE SOME ELEVATED TSRA. BUT RIGHT NOW THE RH TIME SECTIONS ARE VERY DRY IN THIS AREA FOR TUE NIGHT. /MJF && .AVIATION... PATCHY EARLY MORNING MVFR TO IFR CIGS/VISBYS WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS THE AREA BEHIND DEPARTING CONVECTION...OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH THE DAY WITH CLEARING SKIES. NORTHWESTERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE TO AROUND 15 TO 20 KTS DURING THE AFTERNOON. /JM && .FSD WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... IA...NONE. MN...NONE. NE...NONE. SD...NONE. &&
