Area forecast discussion, Apr 21, 9:58 AM CDT, 1 hour 16 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND FORKS ND
958 AM CDT SUN APR 21 2013

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 1000 AM CDT SUN APR 21 2013

TRIED TO TIME BAND OF SNOW IN THE NORTH AND RAIN/SNOW CHANGING TO
SNOW IN THE SOUTH TODAY. MOST AREAS SHOULD SEE AT LEAST SOME
MEASURABLE PRECIP...WITH UP TO A QUARTER INCH PERHAPS IN THE
SOUTH. THEREFORE...HAVE INCREASED POPS TO CATEGORICAL AS THE BAND
MOVES FROM WEST TO EAST TODAY. OTHERWISE...NO CHANGES TO CURRENT FORECAST.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 347 AM CDT SUN APR 21 2013

CHALLENGE IS PLACEMENT AND AMOUNT OF QPF WITH FROPA TODAY. MODELS
IN FAIR AGREEMENT WITH TIMING OF FRONT... APPEARS THE 00Z SOLNS
SLOWED THE TIMING A COUPLE HOURS OR SO FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST.
USED A BLEND OF THE HIRES NAM/RAP/HRRR THOUGH THE MORNING AND TRENDED
TOWARD THE GFS SOLN BY 00Z TONIGHT FOR COVERAGE AND PLACEMENT OF
QPF.

THERMAL PROFILES SUPPORT ALL SNOW AS PCPN IN W ND MOVES INTO THE
DVL BSN TOWARD 12-15Z. B/N 15 AND 18Z POSSIBLE RN/SN MIX AS 925MB
TEMPS SLOWLY WARM ABOVE 0C. 18Z TO 00Z KEPT ALL PCPN LIQUID AS
925MB WARMS AND ANY SNOW WILL MELT ON CONTACT WITH SFC TEMPS IN
THE MID TO UPPER 30S AND 40S IN THE MN PINES. CURRENT THINKING IS
ABOUT AN INCH OF SNOW ACCUMULATION BY NOON IN THE DVL BSN AND
UNDER AN INCH ACROSS THE NRRV.

THIS AFTERNOON A MORE WIDE SPREAD BAND OF PCPN IS EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP AS A 30KT 850MB JET ALLOWS PWATS TO INCREASE ABOVE HALF
AN INCH IN WCNTRL AND NW MN AND INTERACT WITH THE FROPA. NO SNOW
ACCUMS WITH WARM SFC TEMPS BUT WILL SEE A MIX POSSIBLE THIS
AFTERNOON ALONG AND NORTH OF HWY 2. PCPN ENDS QUICKLY FROM WEST TO
EAST AS DRY MID LEVELS UNDER CUT STRONGER LIFT ALOFT.

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 347 AM CDT SUN APR 21 2013

MONDAY NIGHT TO TUESDAY NIGHT... SFC HIGH PRESSURE MOVES FROM THE
WESTERN HIGH PLAINS SE TO THE SD AND NE BORDER UNDER 500MB NW
FLOW. THIS WILL ALLOW GOOD RADIATIONAL COOLING AND A COLD NIGHT
AS TEMPS DROP INTO THE TEENS WEST...DEEPER SNOWPACK AND CLOSER TO
THE CENTER OF THE LOW AND 20S VALLEY AND TREES IN THE EAST. GOOD
SOLAR AND LITTLE MIXING TUESDAY WILL ALLOW TEMPS TO WARM INTO THE
30S AND 40S.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...LONG WAVE PATTERN DEAMPLIFIES THIS
PERIOD. HIGH AMPLITUDE LONG WAVE TROUGH WAS OVER CENTRAL NORTH
AMERICA WITH LONG WAVE RIDGES OFF THE US WEST AND EAST COASTS. BY
DAY 8, THE LONG WAVE LONG TROUGH SHIFTS THE TROUGH AXIS INTO
EASTERN CANADA AND GREAT LAKE STATES WHILE LONG WAVE PATTERN
BECOMES A LOW AMPLITUDE PATTERN.

MODELS FROM RUN TO RUN HAVE BEEN VACILLATING BETWEEN WARM AND COLD
FOR LATE IN THE PERIOD. BUT TREND IS FOR WARMER WITH LONG WAVE
TROUGH SHIFTING EAST. GFS AND ECMWF WERE IN GOOD AGREEMENT AT THE
BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD BUT GFS BECOMES MUCH FASTER THAN THE ECMWF
BY THE END OF THE PERIOD. WILL PREFER THE SLOWER AND COOLER ECMWF.

NOT MUCH CHANGE TO HIGH TEMPS FOR WED AND THU..A DEGREE OR TWO
WARMER. HOWEVER HIGH TEMPS INCREASED 5 TO 8 DEGREES FOR FRI AND SAT.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z MONDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 635 AM CDT SUN APR 21 2013

ALL TAF SITES EXPECTED TO BECOME IFR A BAND OF -SN/RA/FZRA WILL
CONTINUE TO MOVE TO THE EAST FROM C ND. PCPN COVERAGE WILL
INCREASE ACROSS THE RRV LATE THIS MORNING OR EARLY AFTN AS FROPA
OCCURS. NW GUSTS BEHIND FROPA WILL CLEAR OUT IFR CIGS LATE THIS
EVENING VALLEY WEST.
