AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BISMARCK ND
922 PM CDT SUN JUL 6 2014

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 917 PM CDT SUN JUL 6 2014

PERSISTENT SUPERCELL CONTINUES TO TRACK FROM WESTERN TOWARDS SOUTH
CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA. WITH STORM CONTINUING TO HOLD ITS STRENGTH
AND SOME SHORT TERM MODELS SHOWING IT TO CONTINUE HAVE
DECIDED...AFTER CONSULTATION WITH SPC...TO PUSH SEVERE WATCH DOWN
TO THE SOUTH DAKOTA BORDER. UPDATES HAVE BEEN SENT ADDRESSING THIS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY)

ISSUED AT 336 PM CDT SUN JUL 6 2014

MID LEVEL FAST FLOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS TONIGHT AND MONDAY
WILL BRING A SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED H250 JET ACROSS THE
STATE. THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL CARVE OUT A MORE CYCLONIC TOUGH
OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS ON MONDAY. MODELS HAVE BEEN IN REASONABLE
AGREEMENT IN BRINGING HIGHER POPS INTO THE AREA MONDAY. AS A
RESULT HAVE RAISED CHANCES TO LIKELY ACROSS THE NORTH CENTRAL AND
EAST ON MONDAY. CAPE AND MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES ARE STILL MARGINAL
FOR SEVERE POTENTIAL BUT JET ALOFT IS MODERATELY STRONG. SOME
STORMS THAT FORM WILL LIKELY HAVE SOME SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY
WINDS...BUT AT THIS TIME DO NOT ANTICIPATE A SEVERE WEATHER
THREAT. HIGHS MONDAY MAY BE CUT SHORT ACROSS THE NORTH AND EAST
WHERE MORE CLOUDS AND SHOWERS ARE NOW FORECAST. MIGHT ONLY SEE
AROUND 70 FOR HIGHS MONDAY AFTERNOON NORTH CENTRAL.

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)

ISSUED AT 336 PM CDT SUN JUL 6 2014

FORECAST HIGHLIGHTS IN THE LONG TERM PERIOD WILL BE SEASONAL
TEMPERATURES TRENDING WARMER WEDNESDAY TO THURSDAY...BACK TO
SEASONAL FOR THE WEEKEND...ALONG WITH RELATIVELY QUIET WEATHER
CONDITIONS EARLY TO MID WEEK...ACTIVE LATER THIS WEEK...BACK TO
RELATIVELY QUIET FOR THE WEEKEND.

A QUASI-QUIET PERIOD IS FORECAST THROUGH MID WEEK ACROSS THE
REGION. IT APPEARS THE MAIN PRECIPITATION/THUNDERSTORM CHANCES
WILL BE ACROSS THE EASTERN THIRD OR ONE HALF OF THE STATE MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY NEAR THE BEST MID/UPPER LEVEL FORCING...THEN
MAINLY DRY CONDITIONS TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. A NORTHWEST
FLOW ALOFT PATTERN WILL RESULT IN SEASONAL TEMPERATURES...70S AND
80S BOTH TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

OUR FLOW ALOFT TRANSITIONS FROM NORTHWEST TO MORE ZONAL WEDNESDAY
NIGHT AS A SIGNIFICANT S/WV TROUGH MOVES ACROSS THE CANADIAN
ROCKIES AND TOWARDS THE CENTRAL CANADIAN PRAIRIE PROVINCES. ZONAL
FLOW REMAIN THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEKEND...THEN
TRANSITIONS BACK TO NORTHWESTERLY SAT NIGHT/SUNDAY AS RIDGING
RECOMMENCES OVER THE WESTERN CONUS. UNDER THE ZONAL FLOW...MODELS
PORTRAY SEVERAL EMBEDDED S/WV IMPULSES WITHIN THE MEAN FLOW MOVING
ACROSS THE LOCAL AREA...SO WILL LEAVE SOME MENTION OF
THUNDERSTORMS EACH PERIOD. THIS WILL REMAIN TRUE AS WE TRANSITION
BACK TO NORTHWESTERLY MID TO LATE NEXT WEEKEND.

AT THIS TIME THE HIGHER POPS ARE STILL JUSTIFIED FOR THE THURSDAY
EVENING/EARLY FRIDAY PERIOD AS THE ABOVE MENTIONED SIGNIFICANT
S/WV TROUGH MOVES EAST ACROSS NORTHERN SK/MB...DRAGGING A SFC
TROUGH ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS. ROBUST HEATING ALONG TO EAST OF
THE SFC TROUGH...COUPLED WITH STRONG MOISTURE TRANSPORT...LOOKS TO
RESULT IN THE BEST CHANCE OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE
LONG TERM PERIOD ACROSS WEST AND CENTRAL ND. WHILE HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS SOUTH AND EAST IN THE WAKE OF THE SFC TROUGH
FRIDAY...LINGERING SURFACE BOUNDARY MAY BE PRESENT ACROSS MY SOUTH
FOR ANOTHER ROUND OF AFTERNOON/EVENING CONVECTION. UNCERTAINTY
ABOUNDS THEREAFTER.

ISOLD/SCT TSRA WILL SPREAD FROM NORTHWEST NORTH DAKOTA TOWARDS
SOUTH CENTRAL/SOUTHEAST NORTH DAKOTA TONIGHT. ADDITIONAL SHOWERS
AND STORMS WILL DEVELOP INTO MONDAY. OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED.

.HYDROLOGY...

ISSUED AT 336 PM CDT SUN JUL 6 2014

THE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF RUNOFF FROM THE PAST HEAVY RAINFALL HAS
WORKED ITS WAY INTO THE DOWNSTREAM SOURIS RIVER VALLEY AND
COMBINED WITH BACKWATER FROM CANADA HAS CAUSED THE LOWER SOURIS
RIVER VALLEY TO RISE INTO MODERATE TO MAJOR FLOOD. THIS IS
EXPECTED THROUGH NEXT WEEK. RELEASES FROM ALAMEDA AND LAKE DARLING
DAMS WILL CAUSE MINOR TO MODERATE FLOODING ON THE SOURIS RIVER
DOWNSTREAM OF LAKE DARLING ALSO THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK.
