AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ABERDEEN SD
258 AM CST SAT FEB 12 2011

.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH MONDAY.
MAIN FCST CHALLENGE FACING THE NEAR TERM REVOLVES AROUND TEMPS
THROUGH THE WEEKEND...COUPLED WITH WINDS SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT.

08Z MSAS ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT NEXT SURFACE TROF IS PUSHING EAST
ACROSS THE STATE. WINDS BEHIND THIS FEATURE ARE BACKING TO THE
SW-W...WHILE MORE SOUTHERLY WINDS ARE FOUND AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE.
WEAK 500HPA/700HPS SYSTEM DIVING THROUGH IS BRINGING ABUNDANT
MID/HIGH LEVEL CLOUDINESS...BUT NOT MUCH MORE THAN THAT. CURRENT
RADAR RETURNS ACROSS FAR WRN CWA AND ACROSS SERN ND SEEM TO BE
TAPPING MID-CLOUD AND/OR VIRGA...WITH LITTLE IN THE WAY EXPECTED
TO REACH THE GROUND.

THE CONCERN FOR TODAY IS FORECASTED HI TEMPS. FAIRLY EXTENSIVE
CLOUD SHIELD ADVANCING SOUTHEAST INTO STATE...AND CONDENSATION
PRESSURE DEF'S THROUGH 500MB SUGGEST THAT IT MAY REMAIN THROUGH
MOST OF THE DAY. WORRIED ABOUT HOW MUCH THE CLOUDS WILL OFFSET THE
WAA PATTERN. HAVE OPTED TO LOWER TEMPS A DEGREE OR SO AND BRING
THEM MORE INLINE WITH THE TEMPS THAT WERE SEEN ON FRIDAY.

ATTENTION THEN TURNS TOWARD THE WINDS SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT AHEAD OF
NEXT STRONGER IMPULSE THAT DIVES SE IN THE 500HPA/700HPA FLOW.
BOTH THE GFS AND NAM INDICATE THAT STRONGEST 6HRLY PRESSURE RISE
BUBBLE WILL MOVE THROUGH ERN NORTH DAKOTA...JUST CLIPPING THE FAR
NERN CORNER. FCST SOUNDINGS ACROSS THE EAST SHOW THAT STRONG
INVERSION WILL HOLD THROUGH MOST OF SUNDAY...SO THAT ALTHOUGH
BREEZY CONDS ARE EXPECTED...NOT SURE STRONGEST WINDS WILL BE ABLE
TO MIX DOWN. BY 00Z MONDAY...COLD FRONT HAS PUSHED THROUGH WITH
STRONG CAA SEEN ALL OF THE CWA. MID/LOW LEVEL INVERSION BREAKS BY
THIS TIME...BUT 925HPA-850HPA WINDS ALSO BEGIN A SLOW DECREASE IN
SPEED. LOADED THE NAM12 SFC WINDS FOR THE SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT TIME
PERIOD...AND NUDGED UP WINDS ALONG THE BUFFALO RIDGE SUNDAY
EVENING/NIGHT TO ACCOUNT FOR LOCAL EFFECTS. THANKFULLY...THERE
SHOULD BE A FEW FREEZE/THAW CYCLES IN WHICH TO SETTLE/CRUST THE
SNOW IN THE HIGHER ELEVATIONS TO KEEP BLOWING/DRIFTING SNOW TO A
MINIMUM.

GIVEN THE STRENGTH OF THE CAA THAT MOVES THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT INTO
MONDAY...HAVE OPTED TO LOWER TEMPS ALMOST A CATEGORY SUNDAY NIGHT
INTO MONDAY. TEMPS SHOULD STILL CLIMB ABOVE FREEZING...BUT UNTIL
WAA RETURNS BACK TO THE REGION BY 00Z TUESDAY...CAA SHOULD OFFSET
MID-FEBRUARY SUNSHINE.

.LONG TERM...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY
MILD TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MOST OF THE EXTENDED
PERIOD...ALONG WITH DRY CONDITIONS. MELTING WILL CONTINUE WITH
HIGHS WELL INTO THE 30S AND 40S...EVEN 50S FOR THE SOUTHWEST CWA.
ZONAL FLOW PATTERN TURNS MORE SOUTHWESTERLY BY THE END OF THE
WEEK. MODELS STILL SHOWING A FAIRLY DECENT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
SLIDING EAST ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS ON FRIDAY...WITH A SHOT OF
COLD AIR BEHIND IT. POPS ARE ALREADY IN THE FORECAST TO COVER THIS
AND WILL WATCH TRENDS WITH THIS SYSTEM. REGARDLESS OF THE TRACK
WITH THIS LOW...IT APPEARS LIKELY AT LEAST COLDER AIR WILL WORK
BACK INTO THE REGION BY NEXT WEEKEND.
