AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ABERDEEN SD
702 PM CDT THU JUN 30 2011

.UPDATE...
NUDGED POPS DOWN ACROSS THE EAST THIS EVENING BASED ON CURRENT
STORM AND SHORTWAVE MOTION. SOME THUNDERSTORMS HAVE MOVED INTO FAR
WESTERN SD THIS EVENING...BUT HAVE WEAKENED RAPIDLY AS THEY RUN
INTO THE STRONGER CAP ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE HILLS. STILL EXPECT
THIS CAP TO ERODE SOMEWHAT AFTER SUNSET...SO SEVERE STORMS ARE
STILL A THREAT. WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE TROF/WEAK COLD
FRONT...TEMPERATURES ARE FALLING ACROSS THE REGION..IF SLOWLY. LET
THE HEAT ADVISORY EXPIRE FOR THE AREA THOUGH PLACES I-29 EAST WILL
CONTINUE TO HAVE HEAT INDICES BETWEEN 100 AND 104 FOR THE NEXT
COUPLE OF HOURS.

&&
.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT
MAIN FORECAST CHALLENGE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS
TONIGHT INTO THE DAY FRIDAY. VERY HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS ACROSS
THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON HAVE LED TO EXTREME INSTABILITY. A FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WAS JUST ENTERING THE FAR NORTHWESTERN CWA AT 20Z...AND
IS EXPECTED TO SLOWLY PUSH ACROSS THE CWA THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS. BIGGEST HINDRANCE FOR DEVELOPING THUNDERSTORMS IS AN
EXTREMELY STRONG CAP OVER THE REGION...H7 TEMPS CURRENTLY IN
EXCESS OF +14 DEGREES. THIS CAP DOES NOT BREAK DOWN MUCH DURING
THE EVENING...THEREFORE FEEL THAT BEST CHANCE OF STORMS IS GOING
TO BE POST FRONTAL AFTER MIDNIGHT. THE STORMS WILL THEN NOT HAVE
THE BENEFIT OF THE STRONG DAYTIME HEATING THAT OCCURRED TODAY...SO
THAT IS WHERE THE QUESTION COMES IN AS TO WHETHER OR NOT ANY
STORMS THAT DO DEVELOP WILL BE ABLE TO REACH SEVERE LEVELS. HAVE
OPTED TO KEEP A MENTION OF SEVERE IN DURING THE EVENING HOURS WHEN
ANYTHING THAT MAY DEVELOP WOULD HAVE A BETTER CHANCE...BUT TOOK
THE SEVERE MENTION OUT AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH JUST THUNDERSTORMS THEN
MENTIONED. MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE PRECIPITATION
LINGERING OVER THE AREA FRIDAY...FINALLY EXITING THE FAR EASTERN
CWA EARLY FRIDAY EVENING.

HIGH PRESSURE MOVES IN OVER THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT AND LOOKS TO
REMAIN DOMINANT THROUGH THE END OF THE PERIOD. THE GFS DOES HINT
AT IT MOVING EAST A BIT FASTER THAN THE NAM WITH SHOWERS REACHING
THE WESTERN CWA SATURDAY NIGHT. THEREFORE...KEPT THINGS DRY LATE
FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING...THEN STUCK WITH A SMALL
POP SATURDAY NIGHT.

TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN MILD TO WARM OVERNIGHT...BUT COOLER AIR
THEN MOVES IN BEHIND THE FRONT ON FRIDAY. EXPECT FRIDAYS HIGHS TO
BE A GOOD 15 TO 20 DEGREES COOLER THAN TODAY...WITH NEAR NORMAL
TEMPERATURES AGAIN ON SATURDAY UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF HIGH
PRESSURE.

.LONG TERM...SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY
AS THE FLOW PATTERN EVOLVES MORE-SO INTO A DIRTY RIDGE ALOFT OVER
THIS CWA IN THE OUT PERIODS...THE SOUTHERN PERIPHERY OF FAST POLAR
WESTERLIES WILL BE ACROSS THIS REGION...ALLOWING FOR A FEW
TRANSIENT UPPER WAVES TO WORK THROUGH THE NORTHERN PLAINS. NAILING
DOWN THE TIMEFRAME FOR ANY GIVEN SHORT-WAVE PASSAGE IN THE
EXTENDED IS FUTILE AT THIS POINT...SO CONTINUED TO BROAD-BRUSH
SMALL POPS/WX MENTION ACROSS SEVERAL FORECAST PERIODS. THIS
MATCHES SURROUNDING WFOS WELL.

AS FOR TEMPERATURES...LOW LEVEL THERMAL PROGS SHOW WAA SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY AHEAD OF ONE SURFACE FROPA...BUT THEN SHOW WEAK LOW LEVEL
CAA AND A LARGE SPRAWLING HIGH PRESSURE AREA SETTING UP ACROSS THE
CWA TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY. PRECIPITATION CHANCES START SETTING
BACK UP LATE OUT WEST WEDNESDAY EVENING/OVERNIGHT...AND EXPANDING
FURTHER EAST ACROSS THE REST OF THE CWFA ON THURSDAY.

&&

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

LOOK FOR VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL HIGH
PLAINS COULD EVENTUALLY MAKE IT AS FAR NORTH AND EAST AS THE KPIR
AND KMBG TERMINALS IN SOUTH DAKOTA BY LATE THIS EVENING /GENERALLY
AT OR AFTER 03Z/. CURRENT VCTS THUNDER MENTION WILL LIKELY REQUIRE
SOME FURTHER FINE TUNING OVER THE NEXT 12 HOURS OR SO.

THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE HELPING STORMS TO FORM WILL LIFT NEWD
ACROSS THE STATE DURING THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY ON FRIDAY...SO
ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ALONG
AND EAST OF THE MISSOURI RIVER VALLEY OF SOUTH DAKOTA AT OR AFTER
12Z FRIDAY AND SPREAD NORTHEAST THROUGH THE KABR AND KATY
TERMINALS THROUGH APPX 18Z. FURTHER FINE TUNING TO THUNDER MENTION
IN THESE TWO TAFS WILL BE NEEDED OVER THE NEXT 12 TO 18 HOURS.

A FEW THUNDERSTORMS OVERNIGHT OUT WEST AND THROUGH LATE FRIDAY
MORNING OUT EAST COULD BECOME SEVERE...WITH LARGE HAIL AND STRONG
DAMAGING STRAIGHT-LINE WINDS THE PRIMARY SEVERE WEATHER TYPES.

ALSO...A COLD FRONT IS WORKING EAST THROUGH THE CWA...AND AT
PRESENT HAS ALREADY TRUDGED THROUGH KMBG/KPIR/KABR. THIS FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WILL SWITCH SOUTHERLY WINDS AROUND TO A NORTHWESTERLY
DIRECTION.
