AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
300 PM CDT FRI AUG 3 2012

.DISCUSSION.../ISSUED AT 300 PM CDT/
CURRENT THINKING ON THUNDERSTORM EVOLUTION LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND
NIGHT HAS NOT REALLY CHANGED MUCH. AIRMASS IS HEATING OUT AHEAD OF
COLD FRONT AS NOTED BY AGITATED CU DEVELOPING OVER CENTRAL SD. ONE
LACKING FEATURE IS DEEP LOW LEVEL MOISTURE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR BUT
STILL NOT TO BAD WHICH IS HELPING TO PRODUCE 0-3KM CAPES NEAR 2000
ACROSS CENTRAL SD. TORNADO THREAT NOT ALL THAT HIGH DUE TO FAIRLY
HIGH LCL. SO AM EXPECTING INITIAL DISCRETE STORMS TO FORM WEST OF
THE JAMES RIVER TOWARDS 21Z OR 22Z AND THEN SPREAD EAST AND FORM A
SCATTERED TO BROKEN LINEAR LINE AS THEY REACH I29 AROUND 01Z OR 02Z.
INITIAL STORMS WILL HAVE THE POTENTIAL FOR LARGE HAIL AND THEN
EVOLVE MORE INTO A WIND EVENT WITH DECREASING HAIL THREAT LATER IN
THE EVENING. FEEL BEST THREAT FOR THE MOST WIDESPREAD ACTIVITY TO BE
NORTH OF I90 BUT SHOULD SEE MORE DEVELOPMENT LATER IN THE NIGHT AS
FRONT SAGS INTO NORTHWEST IOWA WHILE H85 FLOW REMAINS OUT OF THE
SOUTH ACROSS SOUTHEAST CWA. SO THIS SHOULD AID IN REDEVELOPMENT
NORTH OF FRONT LATER TONIGHT AND PERSIST INTO SATURDAY MORNING
ACROSS SOUTHEAST CWA. SO NORTHWEST IOWA MAY SEE ITS BEST CHANCE OF
RAIN AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT AS OPPOSED TO NORTHERN CWA SEEING BEST
CHANCE BEFORE 06Z.

ON SATURDAY...THREAT OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST
ACROSS SOUTHEAST CWA IN THE MORNING AND THEN EXIT CWA AS TROF AXIS
SHIFTS EAST OF CWA. GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS WILL DEVELOP OVER WESTERN
CWA BY AFTERNOON WITH MUCH COOLER TEMPERATURES ACROSS CWA BEHIND
FRONT. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL ACTUALLY BE A FEW DEGREES BELOW NORMAL
WHICH HAS BEEN QUITE RARE THIS SUMMER.

SATURDAY NIGHT WILL SEE CLEARING SKIES AND DECREASING WINDS WITH
SOME OF THE COOLEST MORNING LOWS IN AWHILE. EXPECTING LOWS MAINLY IN
THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 50S ON SUNDAY MORNING. BECAUSE OF THE LIGHT
WINDS LEANED CLOSEST TO THE CONSMOS OUTPUT. A COUPLE OF UPPER 40S
FROM THE MIDDLE TO UPPER JAMES VALLEY TOWARDS BROOKINGS NOT OUT OF
THE QUESTION.

SUNDAY LOOKING QUIET AND PLEASANT WITH LIGHT WINDS...CLEAR SKIES AND
FAIRLY LOW HUMIDITY VALUES. HIGH PRESSURE WILL DRIFT EAST THROUGH
THE DAY...WITH NORTHWEST WINDS BECOMING LIGHT IN SW MN AND NW IA
WHILE LIGHT WINDS TURN GRADUALLY TO THE SOUTHEAST OVER SE SD. DID
RAISE HIGHS JUST A BIT WITH DRY GROUND AND THE POTENTIAL FOR A
LITTLE SUPER ADIABATIC SURFACE WARMING WITH LIGHT WINDS AND A LOT OF
SUNSHINE.

MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT LOOKING A LITTLE WARMER AS A BOUNDARY WORKS
SOUTH INTO THE AREA. DID ADD A SMALL CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS ON
MONDAY NIGHT AS THE BOUNDARY WORKS THROUGH BUT WITH THE MAIN UPPER
LEVEL SUPPORT OFF TO THE NORTH AND EAST COVERAGE WILL LIKELY NOT BE
TOO HIGH.

IN THE LATTER PERIODS(TUE/FRI)...A SLIGHT SHIFT IN THE OVERALL
PATTERN WITH THE STRONG UPPER LEVEL RIDGE EXPECTED TO SET UP OVER
THE ROCKIES VS. THE CENTRAL UNITED STATES AS HAS BEEN THE CASE FOR
THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS. WHAT THIS MEANS IS STILL THE POTENTIAL
FOR SOME PRETTY WARM DAYS...BUT A BETTER CHANCE FOR THE OCCASIONAL
COOL FRONT AND SPOTTY CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
SLIGHTLY COOLER AIR IN PLACE ON TUESDAY SHOULD ALLOW FOR
TEMPERATURES NEAR OR A LITTLE BELOW NORMAL. AFTER THIS THE UPPER
LEVEL RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE ROCKIES WHICH IN TURN STRENGTHENS THE
NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS...LEAVING A LOT OF WIGGLE
ROOM FOR TEMPERATURE POTENTIAL WITH CHANCES FOR BACKDOOR FRONTS AND
DECENT HEATING AHEAD OF ANY OF THESE FRONTS.

&&

.AVIATION.../FOR THE 18Z TAF ISSUANCE/
ISOLATED HIGH BASED THUNDERSTORMS WILL PERSIST INTO EARLY AFTERNOON
ACROSS SOUTHEAST SOUTH DAKOTA INTO NORTHWEST IOWA ALONG AN ELEVATED
BOUNDARY. THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT WILL SHIFT TO AREAS WEST OF THE
JAMES RIVER AFTER 22Z. AS THE STORMS DEVELOP THEY WILL FORM INTO A
LINE AND SPREAD EAST REACHING I29 AROUND 01Z AND THEN CONTINUE EAST
OVERNIGHT...WITH REDEVELOPMENT EXPECTED BEHIND THE FRONT AFTER 05Z
AND PERSIST THROUGH MID MORNING SATURDAY MAINLY SOUTH OF I90. THE
MAIN THREAT FOR LARGE HAIL WILL BE WEST OF I29 LATE THIS AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING WITH STORMS TRANSITIONING INTO STRONG WINDS WITH
GUSTS TO 60 KNOTS POSSIBLE. THE SEVERE THREAT SHOULD WANE BY 05Z.
