AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
617 PM CDT SAT AUG 31 2013

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 324 PM CDT SAT AUG 31 2013

SURFACE ANALYSIS THIS AFTERNOON INDICATING THE WELL ADVERTISED COLD
FRONT PRESENTLY SITUATED THROUGH CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA...WITH
CONVECTION DEVELOPING ALONG THE NORTHERN EXTENT OF THE BOUNDARY
THROUGH THE NORTH CENTRAL PORTION OF THE STATE. HI RES MODELS NOT
HANDLING CURRENT CONVECTION VERY WELL...NOT DEVELOPING ANYTHING
UNTIL CLOSER TO 21Z...SO NOT ESPECIALLY USEFUL FOR DETERMINING
FUTURE CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT AND TIMING. ASSUMPTION WOULD BE
HOWEVER THAT ADDITIONAL CONVECTION WILL DEVELOP LATER IN THE
AFTERNOON AND EVENING WITH INCREASING LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE OVER OUR
AREA AS THE FRONT PUSHES TO THE EAST...IN CONJUNCTION WITH
INCREASING UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT AS AN UPPER LEVEL WAVE DROPS INTO THE
NORTHERN PLAINS THROUGH THE EVENING. THE BETTER CHANCE FOR POPS
REMAINS ACROSS OUR NORTH AND NORTHEAST DURING THE EVENING WITH MORE
INFLUENCE FROM AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE. DOES LOOK LIKE A FEW SEVERE
STORMS WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH MLCAPE AROUND 2500 J/KG AND EFFECTIVE
SHEAR RUNNING AROUND 35 TO 40 KTS...MAINLY IN THE FORM OF SPEED
SHEAR WITH DIRECTIONAL SHEAR NOT THAT IMPRESSIVE. CONVECTIVE
PARAMETERS WOULD SUGGEST THAT DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL WOULD BE
THE PRIMARY THREAT WITH THESE STORMS. WHILE INITIAL MODE WOULD MOST
LIKELY BE MULTICELLULAR...WOULD BECOME MORE LINEAR AS THE BOUNDARY
PUSHES TO THE EAST WITH SHEAR VECTORS TAKING ON A MORE PARALLEL
COMPONENT IN RELATION TO THE SURFACE FLOW ALONG THE BOUNDARY. MODELS
IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE BOUNDARY EXITING OUR FAR SOUTHEAST
BY AROUND 06Z TONIGHT WITH ANY THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY ENDING OVER OUR
AREA. WITH COLD AIR ADVECTION ENSUING BEHIND THE EXITING
SYSTEM...WILL HAVE LOWS AROUND 60 NORTH AND WEST...TO THE UPPER 60S
FAR SOUTHEAST.

SUNDAY LOOKS TO BE A MUCH NICER DAY AS A SURFACE RIDGE BEGINS TO
BUILD EASTWARD INTO THE AREA. WITH 850 MB TEMPERATURES DROPPING A
GOOD 10 DEGREES OVER TODAY...HIGHS WILL FINALLY COME BACK TO NEAR
NORMAL...TOPPING OUT IN THE MID 70S TO LOWER 80S ACROSS THE AREA.

.LONG TERM...(SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 324 PM CDT SAT AUG 31 2013

MOST OF THE ACTION IS CERTAINLY IN THE SHORT RANGE OF THE
FORECAST...BECAUSE IN THE LONGER TERM...ALL THE WAY FROM SUNDAY
NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY...THERE IS NOT MUCH GOING ON. LARGE UPPER
RIDGE SETS UP SHOP OVER THE INTERMOUNTAIN WEST AND TO SOME DEGREE
THE WESTERN PLAINS. RIGHT NOW...THE MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW A WEAK
SHORT WAVE DIVING DOWN THE NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT SOMEWHERE IN THE
WEDNESDAY OR WEDNESDAY NIGHT TIME FRAME. THE ECMWF IS MORE BULLISH
THAN THE GFS IN ACTUALLY PRODUCING PRECIPITATION. BUT FOR NOW...
DECIDED TO JUST GO AHEAD WITH A DRY POP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK
AS FORECAST RAINFALL TREND HAS BEEN REAL SKITTISH FROM RUN TO RUN.
AND AM NOT SURE IF THE BETTER CHANCE FOR RAINFALL WOULD BE
WEDNESDAY DAY PERIOD OR WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

OTHERWISE TEMPERATURE WISE...A COOL BEGINNING TO THE START OF THE
WEEK WILL GAVE WAY TO A SLOW WARMING TREND. ALL BLEND LOWS COULD
BE TOO COOL WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY NIGHT AND IS SOMETHING TO
WATCH FOR. BUT RIGHT NOW AM NOT CONVINCED THAT THE SHORT WAVE ON
WEDNESDAY WILL CAUSE ENOUGH OF A TEMPERATURE SETBACK TO WARRANT
LOWS IN THE LOWER 60S IN THOSE TWO PERIODS.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z SUNDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 613 PM CDT SAT AUG 31 2013

COLD FRONT WORKING THROUGH THE FORECAST
AREA...HOWEVER...ATMOSPHERE SHOWING SIGNS OF CAPPING. WOULD NOT BE
SURPRISED IF SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP ESPECIALLY EAST OF
INTERSTATE 29 THIS EVENING...BUT GIVEN STORMS SHOULD BE FAIRLY
DISCRETE IN NATURE NEAR I-29 WENT AHEAD AND ISSUED DRY VFR TAFS.
EXPECT COOLER AND SOMEWHAT BREEZY DAY ON SUNDAY WITH NORTH TO
NORTHWEST FLOW.
