AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BISMARCK ND
1013 AM CDT SUN AUG 24 2014

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 1012 AM CDT SUN AUG 24 2014

SURFACE LOW PRESSURE SITUATED NEAR MINOT WITH THE UPPER LEVEL
SYSTEM SPINNING OVER NORTHEAST MONTANA. DRY SLOT HAS PUSHED
THROUGH NORTH DAKOTA AND WE ARE BEGINNING TO SEE INCREASING
COVERAGE OF SHOWERS OVER WESTERN NORTH DAKOTA AS THE WRAP AROUND
MOISTURE PUSHES INTO THE STATE. SOME PEAKS OF SUN ACROSS THE FAR
SOUTH CENTRAL WILL LIKELY CLOUD OVER LATE THIS MORNING BEFORE
CLEARING OUT LATER TODAY. CHANGES WERE MAINLY TO SKY COVER AND
POPS BASED ON LATEST SATELLITE AND RADAR IMAGERY.

UPDATE ISSUED AT 645 AM CDT SUN AUG 24 2014

THE DRY SLOT HAS PRETTY MUCH TAKEN OVER MOST OF WESTERN AND
CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA THIS MORNING. THIS HAS ALLOWED FOR PATCHY FOG
TO DEVELOP ACROSS MOST OF THE CWA THIS MORNING.

RAIN SHOWER ACTIVITY ROTATING SOUTH OVER EASTERN MONTANA IS
EXPECTED TO GRADUALLY LIFT NORTHEAST ACROSS NORTHWESTERN NORTH
DAKOTA LATER TODAY AS THE VERTICALLY STACKED LOW BEGINS TO LIFT
NORTH INTO SOUTHERN CANADA. ADDITIONAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS SHOULD
REMAIN LESS THAN THREE QUARTERS OF AN INCH...WHICH SHOULD NOT
CAUSE ADDITIONAL RUN-OFF ISSUES.

THE CURRENT FORECAST IS ON TRACK WITH ONLY MINOR ADJUSTMENTS MADE
TO THE HOURLY SENSIBLE WEATHER GRIDS BASED ON CURRENT OBS/TRENDS.
THE FRESHENED UP PRODUCTS HAVE BEEN SENT.

ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS AND ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. HAVE
CANCELLED THE FLOOD WATCH ACROSS THE NORTH AS THERE WILL BE A LULL
IN THE PRECIPITATION THIS MORNING BEFORE THE NEXT ROUND MOVES IN.
NOT EXPECTING WIDESPREAD HEAVY PRECIPITATION AMOUNTS WITH THE
PRECIPITATION EVENT FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING. THERE MAY BE
SOME LOCALIZED AMOUNTS OF A THIRD TO ONE HALF INCH...BUT THE
GROUND WILL BE ABLE TO ABSORB THIS. EXPECT MAINLY DRY CONDITIONS IN
THE FAR SOUTH CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN JAMES RIVER VALLEY TODAY WITH
THE BULK OF THE PRECIPITATION NORTHWEST THROUGH NORTH CENTRAL.
BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS INCREASE TO AROUND 20KT THIS AFTERNOON THUS
EXPECTING BREEZY CONDITIONS TO DEVELOP. SHOWERS WILL DECREASE FROM

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 325 AM CDT SUN AUG 24 2014

THE DRYING TREND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MONDAY AS THE VERTICALLY
STACKED LOW LIFTS FARTHER NORTHEAST INTO ONTARIO. WELL BELOW
NORMAL HIGHS ARE STILL FORECAST FOR MONDAY WITH READINGS GENERALLY
IN THE 60S.

A BROAD POSITIVELY TILTED TROUGH IS STILL FORECAST TO ENTER
EASTERN MONTANA/WESTERN NORTH DAKOTA TUESDAY. A SHORTWAVE AHEAD OF
THIS FEATURE SHOULD GENERATE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS...MAINLY ALONG AND
SOUTH OF I-94 TUESDAY. AS THE TROUGH AXIS PIVOTS THROUGH THE
STATE TUESDAY NIGHT...DRY CONDITIONS ARE FORECAST TO DEVELOP IN
ITS WAKE.

A WARMING TREND ALONG WITH DRY CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE
WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY AS WEAK UPPER LEVEL RIDGING BUILDS OVER
THE NORTHERN PLAINS. NEAR NORMAL HIGHS ARE FORECAST BY FRIDAY.

THE UPPER RIDGE IS PROGGED TO BREAK DOWN SOMEWHAT BY SATURDAY WITH
WEAK WAVES IN THE UPPER FLOW ALOFT GENERATING A CHANCE FOR
