1146 PM CDT MON APR 15 2013

.SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 320 PM CDT MON APR 15 2013

MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS THIS PACKAGE...CLOUD/TEMPERATURE TRENDS
THROUGH THE PERIOD...SMALL -RA CHANCE ACROSS THE FAR SOUTH THIS
EVENING/TUE AFTERNOON...RAIN CHANCE APPROACHING LATE TUE NIGHT.

18Z DATA ANALYSIS HAD A BROAD AND FILLING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE
OVER NORTHERN MN WITH A COLD FRONT WRAPPED SOUTH THROUGH EASTERN
WI TO SOUTHERN MO. SNOW CONTINUED OVER NORTHERN MN/NORTHEAST ND
NEAR/ NORTH OF THE SURFACE-500MB CIRCULATION. BAND OF 700-500MB
F-N CONVERGENCE LIFTING ACROSS IA AND THE SOUTHEAST END OF THE
FCST AREA PRODUCING SOME -SHRA AND EVEN A FEW REPORTS OF -SHSN.
SOUTH OF THE LOW...LOW LEVEL COLD ADVECTION...DEEPER MIXING TO
800MB PER LAPS AND AIRLINER FLIGHT SOUNDINGS...AND MDT PRESSURE
GRADIENT WAS PRODUCING STRONG/ GUSTY WEST TO SOUTHWEST WINDS
ACROSS MUCH OF MN/WI/SOUTHERN IA. EVEN WITH SOME SUNSHINE ACROSS
PARTS OF THE REGION TODAY...EARLY AFTERNOON TEMPS ACROSS MN/IA/WI
STILL ONLY IN THE 30S/40S BEHIND THE COLD FRONT.

NO PROBLEMS NOTED WITH 15.12Z MODEL INITIALIZATIONS. SOLUTIONS
VERY SIMILAR FOR TONIGHT THROUGH TUE NIGHT AS THE SURFACE-MID
LEVEL LOW NEAR THE MN/CAN BORDER EXIT TONIGHT AND RIDGING BUILDS
OVER THE MID/UPPER MS VALLEY TUE/TUE NIGHT. DPROG/DT OF 500MB
HGTS AT 15.12Z SHOWED THE MODEL RUNS OF 13.12Z AND 14.12Z
VERIFIED QUITE WELL WITH THE 15.12Z RUNS CONVERGING TOWARD A
COMPROMISE OF THE EARLIER RUNS ON THE NORTHERN MN LOW. OVERALL
TREND TONIGHT/TUE IS A BIT SLOWER WITH THE MN LOW AS IT LIFTS
INTO QUEBEC AND WITH THE NEXT TROUGH INTO THE SOUTHWEST CONUS.
TREND REMAINS SLOWER WITH THE SOUTHWEST CONUS TROUGH TUE NIGHT.
NO ONE MODEL WITH BETTER RUN-TO-RUN CONSISTENCY. CHECK OF OBS VS.
MODEL DATA AT 18Z SHOWED ALL TO BE QUITE GOOD WITH THE CENTRAL
NOAM SURFACE MASS FIELDS. A BLEND OF MODELS LOOKED BEST WITH THE
12-18Z PRECIP OVER THE NORTHERN CONUS. PER WV IMAGERY ALL LOOKED
VERY GOOD WITH THE SHORTWAVE DETAILS OVER NOAM/EASTERN PAC. ONCE
AGAIN FAVORED THE MODEL/ENSEMBLE BLEND/COMPROMISE WITH THE
TIGHTER...COMMON CONSENSUS AND NO ONE MODEL LOOKING BETTER THAN
THE OTHERS. SHORT- TERM FCST CONFIDENCE GOOD THIS CYCLE.

COMPARED TO THE PAST FEW DAYS...A RATHER QUIET SHORT-TERM PERIOD
THIS CYCLE. THE MID LEVEL FN CONVERGENCE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
-SHRA OVER THE FAR SOUTHEAST END OF THE FCST AREA TRANSLATES
QUICKLY EAST/SOUTH OF THE AREA THIS EVENING. WILL LEAVE THE SMALL
-SHRA CHANCES ACROSS MAINLY GRANT CO FOR THE EARLY EVENING HOURS.
MINIMAL LIFT SIGNALS THEN SEEN FROM ABOUT 03Z TONIGHT THROUGH 18Z
TUE WITH BROADER SCALE SUBSIDENCE ACROSS THE AREA AS LOWER LEVEL
COLD ADVECTION CONTINUES AND HGTS RISE WITH THE MID LEVEL LOWS
DEPARTURE. GIVEN THE RECENT RAINS AND SNOWMELT...GRADIENT WINDS
TONIGHT LOOK TO REMAIN 5-10KTS TO KEEP ANY FOG AT BAY. A BIGGER
CONCERN TONIGHT IS THE CLOUD COVER. BROAD STRATO-CU FIELD
UPSTREAM OF THE FCST AREA LOOKS AS THOUGH IT WOULD ADVECT
SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT... HOWEVER MODELS INSIST IT
WILL ERODE/DISSIPATE AS IT MOVES SOUTHEAST TONIGHT. GIVEN THE
WIDESPREAD LOOK OF THE CLOUDS ON SATELLITE IMAGERY AND IN SURFACE
OBS...WILL HOLD ONTO MORE CLOUDS THIS EVENING WITH
DECREASING/CLEARING AFTER MIDNIGHT AND FOR MUCH OF TUE.

AFTER 18Z TUE...ANOTHER BAND OF MAINLY 700-600MB FN CONVERGENCE
TRANSLATES ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHEAST END OF THE FCST AREA. THIS
NOT AS STRONG AS THE ONE THIS AFTERNOON AND WITH SHALLOWER
MOISTURE BUT WILL LEAVE A SMALL -RA CHANCE ACROSS MAINLY CLAYTON
AND GRANT COUNTIES FOR TUE AFTERNOON.

LEADING LOWER LEVEL THERMO-DYNAMIC FORCING/LIFT AND MOISTURE
INCREASE AHEAD OF THE SOUTHWEST CONUS TROUGH AND DEVELOPING
SOUTHERN PLAINS LOW SPREAD NORTHEAST AND ARRIVES OVER THE WEST/
SOUTH ENDS OF THE FCST AREA LATE TUE NIGHT. ADDED A SMALL -RA
CHANCE TO THE SOUTH/WEST ENDS OF THE FCST AREA LATE TUE NIGHT
WITH SEVERAL MODEL/ENSEMBLE MEMBERS PUSHING PRECIP TO OR ONTO OUR
DOORSTEP BY 12Z WED.

USED A BLEND OF THE NUMERICAL TEMP GUIDANCE FOR LOWS/HIGHS
TONIGHT/ TUE/TUE NIGHT.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 320 PM CDT MON APR 15 2013

15.00Z AND 15.12Z MODELS /EXCEPT 15.12Z GEM/ CONTINUE TO COME
INTO BETTER AGREEMENT WITH THE TIMING/EVOLUTION OF THE WESTERN
CONUS TROUGH. TREND FAVORS THE STRONGER/SLOWER OF THE EARLIER
MODEL RUNS AS THE SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROUNDS THE BASE OF THE TROUGH
OVER THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES WED MORNING. TREND IS TOWARD MORE OF A
NEUTRAL TILT TROUGH /VS. POSITIVE TILT/ AS THE TROUGH/ENERGY
MOVES INTO CENTRAL/ SOUTHERN PLAINS THU THEN LIFTS INTO THE
MID/UPPER MS VALLEY THU NIGHT. SURPRISINGLY GOOD CONSISTENCY
AMONG THE MODELS /EXCEPT 15.12Z GEM/ AT 12Z FRI AS THE SURFACE
LOW/MID LEVEL TROUGH LIFT INTO THE REGION. FCST CONFIDENCE IN THE
WED/THU PERIOD IS GOOD.

STRONG 925-700MB WARM ADVECTION/ISENTROPIC LIFT/FN-CONVERGENCE
SPREAD ACROSS THE AREA WED/WED NIGHT AHEAD OF THE SURFACE-500MB
LOW/TROUGH. THIS WITH PW VALUES INCREASING INTO THE 1 TO 1.5 INCH
RANGE. GOOD CONSENSUS AMONG MODEL SOUNDINGS/X-SECTIONS THAT TEMPS
THE SURFACE-850MB PORTIONS OF THE COLUMN WILL BE MOSTLY IN THE
+1C TO +10C RANGE UNTIL LATE THU NIGHT. THIS MAKES PRECIP TYPES
WED/WED NIGHT EASIER WITH MOST OR ALL OF IT FALLING A RAIN. THE
MORE DIFFICULT THING IS THE MODEL CONSENSUS PRODUCES 1 TO 2
INCHES OF QPF ACROSS THE AREA WED/WED NIGHT INTO THU MORNING...AS
RAIN. THIS RAIN IS LIKELY TO PRODUCE MORE RUN-OFF AND CREATE
CONTINUED OR ADDITIONAL FLOODING PROBLEMS. SEE HYDROLOGY SECTION
BELOW FOR MORE DETAILS. PRECIP CHANCES IN THE 80-90 PERCENT RANGE
BY WED AFTERNOON/NIGHT LOOK GOOD.

WITH APPROACH OF THE MID LEVEL TROUGH FOR THU/THU NIGHT AND
INCREASING DYNAMIC LIFT ALOFT...COLUMN SLOWLY COOLS WITH PRECIP
TYPE ISSUES RETURNING BY THU NIGHT. BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPS LOOK TO
REMAIN WARM ENOUGH FOR RAIN THU...BUT BY THU NIGHT WITH THE COLD
MID LEVEL TROUGH MOVING OVER MN/IA/WI AND BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPS
COOLING INTO THE UPPER 20S-MID 30S...APPEARS ANY RAIN THU NIGHT
WOULD MIX WITH/CHANGE TO SNOW WITH POTENTIAL FOR ACCUMULATIONS
INTO FRI MORNING.

MEDIUM RANGE MODEL RUNS OF 15.00Z AND 15.12Z /BUT FOR 15.12Z GEM/
REMAIN IN GOOD AGREEMENT AS THE STRONG MID LEVEL TROUGH PASSES
FRI AND HGTS BEGIN TO RISE SAT. TREND IS FOR SOME WEAK SHORTWAVE
RIDGING SAT AND ANOTHER STRONGER NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH TO TAKE
AIM AT THE UPPER MIDWEST FOR SUN INTO MON. BY SUN/MON...MODEL
SOLUTIONS DIVERGE WITH TIMING/STRENGTH OF THIS NEXT TROUGH. GFS
FASTER...ECMWF SLOWER/ STRONGER BUT OVERALL TREND IS
SLOWER/STRONGER THAN THE PREVIOUS RUNS. FCST CONFIDENCE REMAINS
ON THE GOOD SIDE FRI/SAT THEN AVERAGE TO BELOW BY SUN/MON.

DEEP...COLD CYCLONIC FLOW REMAINS OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST FRI WITH
WHAT WOULD BE CHANCES OF SNOW. SHORTWAVE RIDGING AND SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE BUILD IN FOR FRI NIGHT SAT...WITH MUCH BELOW NORMAL
TEMPS AND A COUPLE OF DRY PERIODS. BY SUN...THE HIGH MOVES EAST
AND THE NEXT MID LEVEL TROUGH...SURFACE LOW...PW INCREASE AND
ROUND OF MULTI- LAYERED FORCING/LIFT SPREAD INTO THE AREA FOR
LATER SUN INTO MON. THERMAL PROFILES BY SUN AFTERNOON THROUGH MON
INDICATE ANY PRECIP THESE PERIODS AS RAIN.

FAVORING THE TIGHTER/IMPROVING MODEL/ENSEMBLE CONSENSUS...THE
MODEL/ENSEMBLE BLEND OF THE NUMERICAL GUIDANCE HIGHS/LOWS FOR WED
THROUGH MON LOOKED GOOD FOR NOW.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1145 PM CDT MON APR 15 2013

THE AREA OF LOW PRESSURE AT THE SURFACE HAS MOVED NORTHEAST INTO
ONTARIO THIS EVENING. THIS HAS ALLOWED THE CYCLONIC FLOW TO RELAX
ENOUGH FOR THE WINDS TO DROP DOWN TO ABOUT 10 KNOTS. THE WINDS ARE
EXPECTED TO REMAIN AT THIS SPEED THROUGH MUCH OF TUESDAY BEFORE
TURNING MORE TO THE NORTHEAST AS WEAK HIGH PRESSURE MOVES BY TO
THE NORTH. ENOUGH DRY AIR HAS BEEN PULLED IN TO ALLOW THE LOW AND
MID LEVEL CLOUDS TO DISSIPATE LEAVING JUST SOME OCCASIONAL HIGH
CLOUDS TO COME IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST. WILL SEE VFR CONDITIONS
THROUGH THE PERIOD...BUT MOISTURE FROM THE NEXT SYSTEM WILL BRING
IN A CEILING AROUND 10K FEET LATE TUESDAY AFTERNOON OR EVENING
WITH THIS GRADUALLY LOWERING THROUGH THE EVENING.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...MAINLY WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT
ISSUED AT 320 PM CDT MON APR 15 2013

WITH THE ADDITIONAL PRECIPITATION EXPECTED WED/WED NIGHT/THU...A
FLOODING THREAT CONTINUES ON MOST IF NOT ALL RIVERS AND STREAMS IN
THE FCST AREA. RUNOFF FROM THE POSSIBLE 1 TO 2 INCHES OF RAIN FROM
WED THROUGH THU WOULD CREATE ADDITIONAL RISES ON THE TRIBUTARY RIVERS/
STREAMS THAT ARE ALREADY RUNNING HIGH FROM HEAVY RAINS OF THE PAST
WEEK AND SNOW MELT. SHOULD THESE RAINS OCCUR...WITH SOME HIGHER
RAINFALL RATES...ADDITIONAL FLOODING IS POSSIBLE ON THE TRIBUTARY
RIVERS LATER IN THE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND. WILL ISSUE ESFARX
ADDRESSING RAIN/FLOODING THREATS LATER IN THE WEEK.

WATER LEVELS ON THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER WILL REMAIN NEARLY STEADY OR
SEE A GRADUAL UPTICK THIS WEEK AS RUNOFF FROM RECENT RAINS AND
SNOWMELT WORKS ITS WAY DOWNSTREAM. THE ONLY EXCEPTION IS AT MCGREGOR
IOWA...WHERE THE RIVER LEVEL RISES ENOUGH SUCH THAT BY WEDNESDAY
NIGHT INTO THURSDAY IT APPROACHES FLOOD STAGE. THE ADDITIONAL RAINS
OF WED THRU THU WOULD CREATE ADDITIONAL RISES ON THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER...BUT MOST RISES FROM ANY WED-THU RAINS WOULD NOT SHOW UP IN
THE MS RIVER UNTIL EARLY NEXT WEEK.
