Area forecast discussion, Mar 21, 3:25 AM CDT, 4 hours 14 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
325 AM CDT MON MAR 21 2011

.DISCUSSION...
AREAS OF FOG NEAR AND UNDER SURFACE RIDGE AND LIGHT FLOW REGIME ARE
APPARENTLY GRADUALLY BEING OVERCOME BY THICKENING HIGH CLOUDS
MOVING OVER AREA. THESE CLOUDS HAVE BEEN OVERSPREADING AREA IN A
BAND THAT EXTENDS THROUGH EASTERN FORECAST AREA AND SO DONT EXPECT A
WIDESPREAD FOG PROBLEM EVEN IN WHAT WOULD SEEM TO BE A MORE
FAVORABLE AREA IN SOUTHWEST MN.

HIGH CLOUD BANDS WILL PASS OVER THE AREA AT TIMES TODAY BEFORE
DEVELOPING VERY FAVORABLE THERMAL PATTERN TO THE SOUTH WITH
APPROACHING SYSTEM BEGINS TO BRING CONVECTIVE MIDDLE CLOUDS INTO
AREA. WILL KEEP MENTION OF SLIGHT CHANCE THUNDERSTORMS LATE THIS
AFTERNOON SUX AREA WITH RAPIDLY DEVELOPING STORMS EXPECTED OVER MUCH
OF AREA THIS EVENING. INSTABILITY GRADIENT AND INCREASING MOISTURE
FLOWING INTO AREA UPSTAIRS...ALONG WITH FREEZING LEVEL OF
COURSE...SEEM TO MAKE A VERY FAVORABLE PATTERN FOR ELEVATED STORMS
WITH LARGE HAIL TONIGHT...ESPECIALLY FAR SOUTHERN AREA BUT NOT
CONFINED THERE. WILL MENTION SEVERE THREAT IN FORECASTS TONIGHT OVER
A LARGE PART OF THE SOUTHEAST. AM MORE IMPRESSED WITH THIS POTENTIAL
EVEN THAN SPC SEEMS TO BE...THOUGH OF COURSE DO NOT SEE MUCH WIND OR
TORNADO THREAT OUR AREA. POPS WILL BE CONTINUED MAINLY IN THE LIKELY
RANGE TONIGHT WITH THE THREAT OF SEVERE STORMS CONTINUING THROUGH
THE NIGHT.

TEMPERATURES WILL OF COURSE BE MILD...ESPECIALLY TONIGHT...UNTIL
COOLING SPREADS INTO AREA AS SYSTEM BEGINS TO PASS TUESDAY NIGHT AND
WEDNESDAY.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD BE CONTINUING THEN BEGINNING TO
SLOWLY WANE FROM THE SOUTHWEST TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...LEAVING
SOME LIGHT RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS LINGERING MAINLY NORTH
WEDNESDAY.

THURSDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND SHOULD BRING COOL TEMPERATURES...A
MINIMAL THREAT OF LIGHT SNOW WITH WEAKENING WAVE THURSDAY
NIGHT...THEN A SOMEWHAT BETTER THREAT OF LIGHT SNOW FOR THE AREA
ABOUT SATURDAY. GFS IS THE MODELS THIS MORNING SHOWING DECENT THREAT
FOR THIS LAST ONE...BUT MODELS HAVE BEEN OSCILLATING AND CANT GET
TOO EXCITED YET. / WILLIAMS

&&

.AVIATION...
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN AT THE SURFACE WILL CREATE LIGHT AND
VARIABLE SURFACE WINDS AND WILL SUPPORT TEMPERATURES DROPPING TO
NEAR DEWPOINT VALUES BY EARLY MORNING. AS THE LOW LEVEL ATMOSPHERE
SATURATES...THE POTENTIAL FOR FOG WILL DEVELOP. A DECK OF HIGH
CLOUDS WILL PREVENT TEMPERATURES FROM DROPPING OFF DRAMATICALLY THIS
MORNING...WHICH SHOULD KEEP FOG ON THE LIGHTER SIDE. HOWEVER...HIGH
CLOUDS WERE SLOW TO MOVE INTO KHON OVERNIGHT...WHICH CREATED MORE
DRAMATIC TEMPERATURE FALLS AND THEREFORE MORE DENSE FOG. EXPECT THAT
VSBYS WILL SLOWLY IMPROVE AT KHON BY 10Z...BUT COULD STILL SEE SOME
PATCHY FOG AT ALL TAF SITES BETWEEN 10Z AND SHORTLY AFTER SUNRISE.
