AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ABERDEEN SD
1155 AM CST SUN FEB 26 2012

.UPDATE...
18Z AVIATION DISCUSSION UPDATED BELOW...

MINOR TWEAKS TO FORECAST THIS MORNING. MOST SNOW IN ASSOCIATION
WITH SURFACE LOW OVER SISSETON HILLS NOW IN NORTH DAKOTA WITH
EXCEPTION TO A BAND OF SNOW IN THE COLD ADVECTION REGIME SITUATED
JUST WEST OF ABERDEEN. SNOW IS NOT PARTICULARLY HEAVY...BUT WITH
WINDS GUSTING 30 TO 40MPH SHOULD SEE DECENT REDUCTION TO
VISIBILITY. OTHERWISE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE SCATTERED LIGHT SNOW
SHOWERS DOT THE CWA...AND STRONGEST WINDS FROM PHILIP TO PIERRE TO
HURON. CONDITIONS STILL EXPECTED TO DRASTICALLY IMPROVE THIS
EVENING AS FEATURE CONTINUES EAST. FOCUS THEN SHIFTS TO MAJOR
WINTER STORM FOR TUESDAY TIMEFRAME...DETAILS WITH THAT WILL COME
OUT IN AFTERNOON PACKAGE.

&&
.PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...
.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH TUESDAY
WINTER WEATHER TODAY...AND AGAIN TUESDAY WILL BE THE FORECAST CHALLENGES.

AS OF 9Z...AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE IS SITUATED NEAR KPIR. WHILE A
NARROW BAND OF PCPN IS SHOWING UP ON RADAR ALONG I-29...NO
OBSERVATIONS ARE REPORTING PCPN. THE MOST SIGNIFICANT BAND OF PCPN
IS ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE LOW PRESSURE WHERE KPHP ACTUALLY
REPORTED A BRIEF PERIOD OF 1/4SM WITH MODERATE SNOW. VARIOUS
HI-RES MODELS SHOW THIS BAND WEAKENING BY 12Z...WITH THE MAJORITY
OF THE SNOW REMAINING ACROSS ND. HOWEVER AS THE SURFACE LOW MOVES
EAST...ADDITIONAL CAA SNOW SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE...ESPECIALLY
FOR LOCATIONS NORTH OF HIGHWAY 212. WHILE SNOWFALL AMOUNTS WILL BE
ON THE LIGHT SNOW...OR LESS THAN ONE INCH...THE COMBINATION OF
FALLING SNOW AND STRONG WESTERLY WINDS WILL LIKELY RESULT IN
REDUCED VISIBILITIES LATER THIS AFTERNOON. CONDITIONS SHOULD
VASTLY IMPROVE BY 3Z MONDAY.

MONDAY...AND MOST OF MONDAY NIGHT SHOULD BE DRY AS MODELS ARE
SHOWING DOWN THE PROGRESSION OF THE NEXT STORM SYSTEM. IN FACT THE
0Z ADJMRA HIGHEST POP IS ONLY 11 PERCENT. BECAUSE OF THE SLOWER
PROGRESSION...HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED POPS ON MONDAY NIGHT.

AT THIS TIME...MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT
LOOKS LIKE A SURE THING. WHILE THE STORM TRACK COULD STILL
CHANGE...THERE IS ENOUGH FORECASTER CONFIDENCE TO ISSUE A WINTER
STORM WATCH BEGINNING 12Z TUESDAY...THROUGH 0Z THURSDAY. THE SREF
IS SHOWING A HIGH PROBABILITY THE EASTERN CWA COULD SEE ONE INCH
AN HOUR SNOWFALL DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS ON TUESDAY. GUIDANCE
FROM HPC IS ALSO SHOWING ONE INCH IN HOUR SNOWFALL...BUT NOT UNTIL
0Z TO 6Z WEDNESDAY. SNOWFALL AMOUNTS COULD RANGE FROM 12 PLUS
INCHES...ALONG THE I-29 CORRIDOR...TO AROUND 6 INCHES FOR
LOCATIONS WEST OF THE MISSOURI RIVER.

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY

MAJOR WINTER STORM SYSTEM CONTINUES TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.

MAJOR WINTER STORM SYSTEM WILL BE WELL UNDERWAY TUESDAY
NIGHT...LASTING THROUGH THE DAY WEDNESDAY. LATEST NUMERICAL
PREDICTION MODELS REMAIN IN EXCELLENT AGREEMENT...TRENDING TOWARD
SLOWING THE WEST TO EAST TRANSLATION OF THE SFC AND ASSOCIATED
CLOSED UPPER LOW BY ABOUT 6 HRS. DESPITE THE SLIGHT TIMING
CHANGE...SIGNIFICANT SNOW ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGHOUT
THE CWA BY WEDNESDAY EVENING. LATEST INDICATIONS ARE THAT BETWEEN
8 AND 16 INCHES OF THE WHITE STUFF WILL FALL BY SUNSET
WEDNESDAY...WITH HIGHEST AMOUNTS...IN EXCESS 12 INCHES...EAST OF
STATE HIGHWAY 47. IN ADDITION TO THE MODERATE TO HEAVY FALLING
SNOW...STRONG NORTH TO NORTHWEST WINDS ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE
SYSTEM WILL CREATE WIDESPREAD BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW/WHITEOUT
CONDITIONS TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...ONLY ADDING TO MAJOR
TRAVEL IMPACTS/DIFFICULTIES. MODELS ARE ALSO TRENDING SLIGHTLY
FARTHER SOUTH WITH THE SFC LOW TRACK...PUSHING THE THREAT OF MIXED
PRECIP/FZRA/DRIZZLE SOUTH OF THE CWA BY TUESDAY EVENING. SYSTEM
FINALLY SLIDES EAST OF THE REGION WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH STRONG NW
WINDS RAPIDLY SUBSIDING WEDNESDAY EVENING.

THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN REMAINS ACTIVE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF
THE WEEK WITH THE NEXT SHORT-WAVE TROUGH EXPECTED THURSDAY AND
ANOTHER FRIDAY. THESE FEATURES ARE FARTHER NORTH AND WILL BE
MOISTURE STARVED SO ONLY EXPECTING BRIEF BOUTS WITH SOME LIGHT
SNOW EACH DAY. TEMPERATURES WELL BELOW AVERAGE ARE ANTICIPATED
WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

.AVIATION...
18Z TAFS FOR THE KABR...KATY...KPIR AND KMBG TERMINALS

MVFR CLOUDS ALONG WITH A FEW SNOW SHOWERS WILL AFFECT MBG...ABR
AND ATY INTO THE EARLY EVENING AS THE RESPONSIBLE LOW PRESSURE
AREA MOVES EAST. VISIBILITIES WILL BE MAINLY MVFR WITH OCNL IFR

EAST OF THE REGION TONIGHT. VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED LATER
