Area forecast discussion, Mar 16, 9:55 AM CDT, 1 hour 37 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
955 AM CDT WED MAR 16 2011

.DISCUSSION...
OTHER THAN TYPICAL MINOR CHANGES TO THE SHORT TERM FORECAST
GRIDS...OVERALL FORECAST LOOKS ON TRACK. RATHER THICK CIRRUS OVER
THE AREA THIS MORNING MAY SHAVE A FEW DEGREES OFF OF HIGHS IN
PLACES...BUT EXPECTING SOME THINNING OF CIRRUS INTO THE AFTERNOON
ALONG WITH A SURGE OF WARM AIR ALOFT SHOULD MITIGATE THIS AFFEC.
SHOULD BE ENOUGH SUN SHINE TO MIX INTO THE WARM AIR ALOFT ACROSS
SNOW FREE AREAS WHERE 60S WILL BE COMMON. STILL LIKELY TO SEE
TEMPERATURES AROUND 70S INTO S CNTRL SD THIS AFTENROON WHILE DEEP
SNOW COVER OVER SW MN WILL MAINLY HOLD HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE 40S
TO LOWER 50S. THESE UNSEASONABLY WARM TEMPERATURES AND GUSTY WINDS
WILL PRODUCE SIGNIFICANT MELTING OF SNOW OF TODAY. WATER FROM
MELTING SNOW WILL HIT LOCAL RIVERS IN EARNEST OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS
WITH MANY RIVERS HITTING FLOOD STAGE. RIVER FLOOD WATCHES AND
WARNINGS ARE CURRENTLY IN EFFECT FOR MANY AREA RIVERS. MILD
TEMPERATURES TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT WITH TEMPERATURES
REMAINING ABOVE FREEZING.  /97

&&

.AVIATION...
VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA TODAY. WIND GUSTS INCREASING
TO 25-30KTS OVER MUCH OF THE AREA BY THIS AFTERNOON. WIND SPEEDS
SHOULD DIMINISH WEST OF I-29 AFTER 21Z AS COOL FRONT APPROACHES THE
JAMES RIVER VALLEY. UPPER WAVE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FRONT WILL BRING
A CHANCE OF LIGHT RAIN TO NORTHWEST PARTS OF THE FORECAST AREA AFTER
17/06Z...BUT CIGS/VSBYS EXPECTED TO REMAIN VFR.  /JH

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
A MUCH MILDER DAY IN STORE IN A STRONG SOUTHERLY LOW LEVEL
FLOW...WITH OUR AREA SITUATED BETWEEN A LARGE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE
CENTERED OVER THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND AN APPROACHING TROUGH
OF LOW PRESSURE PUSHING OUT OF THE NORTHERN ROCKIES. WITH THE
RESULTING TIGHTENING GRADIENT...WILL BE A BREEZY DAY WITH SOUTHERLY
WINDS BECOMING SUSTAINED AT AROUND 15 TO 20 KTS BY AFTERNOON.
PROGGED 925 MB TEMPERATURES WILL RANGE FROM NEAR 20 DEGREES C OVER
OUR SOUTH CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA ZONES TO THE LOWER TEENS C THROUGH
OUR FAR EASTERN ZONES...AND THIS WILL TRANSLATE TO HIGHS AROUND 70
THROUGH THE MISSOURI RIVER CORRIDOR TO THE LOWER 50S IN OUR
SOUTHWESTERN MINNESOTA COUNTIES WHERE THERE IS STILL A SNOWPACK.

A SURFACE BOUNDARY BEGINS TO SWING ACROSS THE AREA BY THIS
EVENING...BUT STALLS OVER THE CWA DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. BY
LATER TONIGHT...A MIDLEVEL WAVE BEGINS TO SWING ACROSS OUR
NORTH...WITH PRETTY DECENT MIDLEVEL FRONTOGENESIS DEVELOPING ACROSS
THE AREA. WITH THAT...REMAINED WITH RAIN CHANCES...PRIMARILY NORTH
OF INTERSTATE 90 FOR LATER TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY AS THE WAVE TRACKS
ACROSS THE AREA AND THE SURFACE BOUNDARY FINALLY SLIDES TO THE SOUTH
BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON. WITH THE CLOUDS/SHOWERS AND ENSUING COLD AIR
ADVECTION...THURSDAY WILL BE A GENERALLY COOLER DAY WITH HIGHS A
COUPLE OF DEGREES EITHER SIDE OF 50 IN OUR NORTH TO UPPER 50S TO
NEAR 60 IN OUR SOUTHERN MOST IOWA ZONES.

ANOTHER MIDLEVEL SHORTWAVE TRACKS ACROSS OUR SOUTH ON THURSDAY
NIGHT...INTERACTING WITH A MIDLEVEL FRONT SITUATED SOMEWHERE IN
CLOSE PROXIMITY TO OUR SOUTHERN CWA. MODEL DIFFERENCES WITH RESPECT
TO PLACEMENT OF THE BEST FRONTOGENESIS MAKING IT SOMEWHAT DIFFICULT
FOR PLACEMENT OF BEST POPS...BUT AT THIS POINT THINK THAT IT IS
PRETTY LIKELY THAT AREAS THROUGH AT LEAST THE MISSOURI RIVER
CORRIDOR WILL RECEIVE LIGHT RAIN ON THURSDAY NIGHT AND EARLY
FRIDAY...WITH SNOW POSSIBLY MIXING IN ALONG THE NORTHERN EDGE OF THE
PRECIPITATION WHERE COLDER TEMPERATURES ALOFT WILL RESIDE.

WILL SEE A BREAK FOR FRIDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY SATURDAY AS FORCING
EXITS THE AREA AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS SOUTHWARD THROUGH
THE REGION. MODELS NOW POINTING TO LIGHT RAIN DEVELOPING ACROSS OUR
SOUTHWEST ON SATURDAY AFTERNOON AS STRONG MIDLEVEL WARM AIR
ADVECTION/ISENTROPIC LIFT OVERSPREAD THE AREA...AND COULD SEE
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS IN OUR SOUTH AND WEST ON SATURDAY EVENING
WITH SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY.  /JM
