AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND FORKS ND
305 PM CDT THU JUL 25 2013

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 305 PM CDT THU JUL 25 2013

MAIN CHALLENGE WILL BE SHOWER/TSTM CHANCES TONIGHT INTO EARLY
FRIDAY AND THEN TEMPS. MODELS RUNNING PRETTY CLOSE TO CONTINUITY
SO NO BIG FORECAST CHANGES EXPECTED.

QUITE A BIT OF CUMULUS FORMED AGAIN TODAY. ALSO SEEING POPCORN
SHOWERS/TSTMS ACROSS THE NORTH/NE. ONE STORM AROUND CLEARWATER
COUNTY IN MN WAS BRIEFLY SEVERE BUT HAS SINCE FADED. SEEING QUITE
A BIT OF UPSTREAM SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDER ACROSS SOUTHERN
MANITOBA ASSOCIATED WITH A NICE SHORT WAVE. THIS WAVE IS EXPECTED
TO ROTATE THRU THE FA TONIGHT SO SHOULD SEE STEADY OR EVEN
INCREASING SHOWERS AND TSTMS INTO THE EVENING. WITH THE STRENGTH
OF THE WAVE SOME MAY EVEN LAST WELL AFTER DARK. THE CUMULUS FIELD
SHOULD THIN OUT WITH LOSS OF HEATING BUT THERE ARE MORE MID AND
UPPER LEVEL CLOUDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE WAVE THAT WILL DROP THRU
TONIGHT WHICH WILL KEEP CLOUD AMOUNTS UP. THE GUSTY NORTHWEST
WINDS SHOULD DROP OFF SOME TONIGHT BUT WILL REMAIN STEADY
OVERNIGHT.

THE MAIN WAVE WILL MOVE SOUTH OF THE FA EARLY FRI BUT THERE WILL
STILL BE ANOTHER PIECE THAT WILL ROTATE THRU DURING THE DAY FRI.
500MB TEMPS ARE QUITE CHILLY WHICH SHOULD RESULT IN QUITE A BIT OF
CUMULUS FORMATION AGAIN AND MORE SPOTTY SHOWERS. SOME SHOWERS MAY
HANG AROUND INTO FRI AFTERNOON ESPECIALLY IN THE EAST. SFC HIGH
PRESSURE WILL DROP INTO CENTRAL ND FRI NIGHT WHICH SHOULD SET THE
STAGE FOR A COLD NIGHT THERE (NEAR RECORD LOWS).

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 305 PM CDT THU JUL 25 2013

SFC HIGH REMAINS IN CONTROL SAT INTO SUNDAY. POSITION OF THE HIGH
SAT NIGHT FAVORS COLDEST TEMPS IN THE EASTERN FA. NOT OUT OF THE
QUESTION FOR RECORD LOWS AGAIN.

FOR SUN NIGHT THROUGH WED AN UPPER RIDGE AND DRY AIRMASS WILL
KEEP THE EARLY PART OF THE PERIOD DRY...BUT THE RIDGE WILL MOVE
OFF TO THE EAST ON MONDAY AND THERE WILL BE INCREASING CHANCES OF
TSTMS MON AFTN INTO THE EVENING AS A WAVE MOVES ACROSS THE
NORTHERN TIER. ACTIVITY SHOULD CONTINUE INTO THROUGH THE DAY ON
TUESDAY AND IMPROVE BY EARLY WED MORNING. DAYTIME HIGHS NEXT WEEK
WILL CONTINUE TO BE BELOW SEASONAL NORMS...WITH MAX TEMPS
GENERALLY IN THE UPPER 70S.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z FRIDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1247 PM CDT THU JUL 25 2013

SOME SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM WILL DEVELOP
MAINLY ACROSS THE NORTHERN VALLEY AND PARTS OF NORTHWEST MINNESOTA
EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. SHOULD SEE PREDOMINANTLY VFR CIGS...HOWEVER
TSTMS ARE POSSIBLE AT TVF...FAR AND BJI. SOME LOWER CIGS WILL MOVE
IN FROM THE NORTH TONIGHT...BUT BEST CONFIDENCE FOR MVFR IS AT TVF
AND WILL KEEP REMAINING SITES VFR FOR NOW.
