.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 407 AM CDT WED JUN 20 2012/

..LIFE THREATENING FLOODING/HEAVY RAINFALL EVENT CONTINUES EARLY
THIS MORNING NEAR TWIN PORTS AND PARTS OF NORTH SHORE...

SHORT TERM...DANGEROUS FLOODING CONTINUES ACROSS TWIN PORTS
VICINITY AND ALONG NORTH SHORE. EVACUATIONS OCCURRING ALONG ST
LOUIS RIVER IN FOND DU LAC SECTION OF WEST DULUTH. DUAL POL
ESTIMATES OF 4 TO 8 INCHES FROM AITKIN THROUGH CARLTON...SRN ST
LOUIS...AND EXTREME SRN LAKE COUNTIES. PRIMARY MECHANISM FOR
EXCESSIVE RAINFALL IS ANOMALOUS PWATS WITHIN VERY DEEP MSTR
TRANSPORT REGION ADVECTING NORTH ACROSS STATIONARY LOW LVL BDRY.
TRAINING ECHOES OCCURRING FROM BRD LAKES TOWARDS SOUTH SHORE OF
LAKE SUPERIOR WITH RAINFALL RATES OF NEAR AN INCH/HR...A DECREASE
FROM EARLIER EVENING RATES OF 2 TO 3 INCH/HR. FAST FLOW ALOFT IS
KEEPING EMBEDDED HEAVIER RAIN CORES MOVING FAIRLY QUICKLY AT THE
MOMENT.

TODAY...DEEP LAYER LIFT WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE MORNING OVER
ERN MN/WRN WI ZONES AS INVERTED SFC TROUGH PROVIDES LOW LVL INFLOW
ACROSS EAST/WEST LOW LVL THETAE GRADIENT FROM HINCKLEY TO SOUTH
SHORE. AT LEAST THROUGH MID MORNING HIGH THREAT OF LIFE THREATENING
FLOODING WILL CONTINUE AS EXCESSIVE RUNOFF OCCURS FROM TOTALLY
SATURATED SOILS. OF MAJOR CONCERN IS THE PROSPECT THAT NEXT ROUND
OF EXCESSIVE RAIN DEVELOPING OVER ERN DAKOTAS WILL SLIDE NORTHEAST
AND PRODUCE HEAVY RAIN TOTALS THIS AFTERNOON. IT APPEARS THAT
REPOSITIONING OF RRQ OF 30H JET WILL FAVOR ENHANCEMENT OF HEAVIER
PRECIP OVER WRN CWA BY MIDDAY...AND THEN A TRANSLATION EAST AS SFC
COLD FRONT FINALLY MAKES ITS MOVE EAST. WILL MOST LIKELY NEED TO
EXTEND FLOOD WARNINGS BEYOND NOON IF MAJORITY OF SODAK CONVECTIVE
SYSTEM HOLDS TOGETHER.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THE FOLLOWING WEDNESDAY...

THE PERIOD WILL START OUT WITH THE STRONG...ACTIVE FRONT MOVING THE
TORRENTIAL RAIN AND VIOLENT THUNDERSTORMS OUT OF OUR AREA WEDNESDAY
NIGHT.  THE RAIN WILL BE FOLLOWED BY A COOL NORTHWEST FLOW...SURFACE
AND ALOFT...THROUGH SATURDAY.  RESIDUAL LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND
CONTINUED COOLING ALOFT WILL RESULT IN SCATTERED LIGHT SHOWERS AND A
FEW THUNDERSTORMS.  AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN IN THE LOW TO
MID 70S...WITH NEAR 50 AT NIGHT.  HIGH PRESSURE FROM CENTRAL CANADA
WILL BUILD OVER HUDSON BAY SATURDAY AND BUILD SOUTHWARD TOWARD LAKE
SUPERIOR SUNDAY THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE COMING WEEK.  THE ONSHORE
FLOW WILL CHILL THE LAKESHORE DOWN INTO THE 60S...WITH SOME 50S...
WHILE TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE TO CLIMB INTO THE 70S WELL INLAND.
THE DRY FLOW WILL END THE SHOWERS AND RESULT IN MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES.
