.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT
85-KT SOUTHERLY JET STREAK NEAR H3 HAS NOW ROUNDED THE BASED OF
THE CLOSED LOW OVER EXTREME NORTHWEST KANSAS THIS AFTERNOON. THIS
STREAK/WIND MAXIMA IS EXPECTED TO FORCE THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED
CLOSED LOW TO JOG NORTHEASTWARD OVERNIGHT. AS A RESULT...THE
NUMEROUS/WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER NORTHWEST AND
NORTH CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA WILL SHIFT SLOWLY EASTWARD THIS EVENING
AND OVERNIGHT. THE AREA OF RAIN WILL INTENSIFY THIS EVENING AS THE
TROWAL AND DEFORMATION INCREASE. LATEST FORECAST GUIDANCE IN GOOD
AGREEMENT...PROGGING THE CLOSED UPPER LOW TO JOG NORTHEASTWARD TO NEAR
SIOUX FALLS TUESDAY MORNING AND THEN MOVE VERY SLOWLY EAST-NORTHEASTWARD
OVER NORTHERN IA BTWN TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND WEDNESDAY. MODEL GUIDANCE
ALSO IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH RAINFALL AMOUNTS RANGING BTWN 2 AND 5
INCHES BY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. BASED ON RAINFALL RATES AND THE
DURATION OF THIS SYSTEM...THIS RAINFALL RANGE SEEMS QUITE
REASONABLE. ISSUED FLASH FLOOD WARNING FOR THE PIERRE AND FORT
PIERRE AREAS FOR THIS EVENING THROUGH TONIGHT GIVEN THE LIKELIHOOD
OF MORE MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN LATE THIS EVENING THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS CREATING FLOODING PROBLEMS ALONG AND NEAR THE
FLOOD LEVEES ALONGSIDE THE MISSOURI RIVER. WRAP-AROUND

WEDNESDAY EVENING BEFORE THE UPPER AND MID LEVEL CIRCULATIONS
MOVE FAR ENOUGH EWD INTO SOUTHERN WISCONSIN.

CLOSED LOW EARLY...AND THE ONSET OF THE NEXT WEATHER SYSTEM
LATE...BETWEEN WHICH WE WILL SEE BROAD/WEAK RIDGING. MODELS
ATTEMPTING TO PRODUCE QPF UNDER THIS RIDGE WITH SOUTHEASTERLY LOW
LEVEL FLOW...HOWEVER AFTER INTERROGATING BUFKIT PROFILES THERE
APPEARS LITTLE ACTUAL NEAR SURFACE SUPPORT OR MUCH INSTABILITY
ALOFT FOR CONVECTION DUE TO LOW SURFACE DEWPOINTS AND WARM MID
LEVEL TEMPERATURES. WILL LEAVE IN LOW POPS MAINLY FOR
COLLABORATION PURPOSES.

LOW/GRADUAL WARM UP BRINGING TEMPERATURES ABOUT NORMAL BY THE

.AVIATION...
TAFS FOR THE KABR...KATY...KPIR AND KMBG TERMINALS

LOW PRESSURE MOVING ACROSS THE REGION WILL RESULT IN A MIX OF
CIGS...MAINLY A COMBINATION OF MVFR/IFR. AN AREA OF PRECIPITATION
CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM NORTH TO SOUTH BETWEEN THE MISSOURI RIVER
AND JAMES RIVER VALLEYS...AND EXPECT THIS AREA TO INCREASE AS MORE
PRECIPITATION MOVES UP FROM THE SOUTH. THUNDERSTORMS WILL ALSO BE
POSSIBLE...MAINLY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN CWA. VSBYS WILL GENERALLY BE
MVFR WITH THE RAIN...BUT MAY BRIEFLY FALL INTO THE IFR CATEGORY
UNDER THE STRONGER STORMS.
