AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TWIN CITIES/CHANHASSEN MN
342 PM CDT WED JUN 18 2014

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 324 PM CDT WED JUN 18 2014

THE FORECAST AREA REMAINS CAPPED THIS AFTERNOON NORTH OF THE WARM
FRONT THAT HAS BEEN THE FOCUS OF EXTREME WEATHER THE LAST SEVERAL
DAYS. EXPECT CONVECTION FORMING TO THE WEST/SOUTHWEST THIS EVENING
TO EXPAND ACROSS THE AREA AFTER 03Z AND PERSIST THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS. AS HAS BEEN THE CASE THE LAST FEW NIGHTS...WIND
DAMAGE...HAIL...AND FLASH FLOODING WILL BE REAL THREATS. HAVE ISSUED
A FLOOD WATCH FOR THE MOST SUSCEPTIBLE AREAS OF SOUTHERN MN THAT
HAVE BEEN HIT THE HARDEST WITH EXCESSIVE RAINFALL OVER THE LAST
WEEK. WILL LIKELY SEE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LINGERING ON
THURSDAY MORNING WITH THE WARM FRONT LIFTING INTO THE AREA...AND
THEN THERE WILL BE THE POTENTIAL FOR A MORE CONCENTRATED BAND/AREA
OF STORMS TO MOVE THROUGH ON THURSDAY AFTERNOON/EVE AS THE COLD
FRONT BEGINS TO MAKE ITS WAY ACROSS THE AREA.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 324 PM CDT WED JUN 18 2014

THE BEST CHC OF CONCENTRATED SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY SHOULD OCCUR ALONG
THE NEGATIVELY TILTED TROUGH MOVING ACROSS THE EASTERN CWA THURSDAY
EVENING. THERE REMAINS ENOUGH CONFIDENCE THAT THERE SHOULD BE A
DRY PERIOD FROM LATE THURSDAY NIGHT AND INTO FRIDAY AS THE UPPER
LOW AND ASSOCIATED MOISTURE/ENERGY MOVES N/NE OF MPX CWA. ONLY
PROBLEM IS THE RESIDUAL WEAK SFC TROUGH THAT HANGS ON ACROSS
WESTERN WISCONSIN WHICH MAY PROVIDE SOME INSTABILITY SHRA/TSRA
FRIDAY AFTN. IN ADDITION...THERE MAY BE ENOUGH MOISTURE TO
CONTINUE LOW POPS ACROSS CENTRAL MN DUE TO THE PROXIMITY OF THE
MOISTURE GRADIENT WITH THE DEPARTING UPPER LOW TO THE NORTH.

AS THE UPPER LOW FINALLY LIFTS NORTH INTO SOUTH CENTRAL CANADA AND
WEAKENS...THE UPPER FLOW WILL BECOME MORE ZONAL ACROSS THE UPPER
MIDWEST THIS WEEKEND. THIS FAST ZONAL FLOW WILL PLAY HAVOC ON CHC
POPS AS WEAK SHRTWV/S WILL LIKELY CAUSE SOME SHRA/TSRA ACTIVITY
IN THE EXTENDED PERIOD. IT IS TOO EARLY TO DEPICT THE BEST TIME
FRAME OF WHEN THE BEST CHC/S OF PRECIPITATION WILL OCCUR.
HOWEVER...BASED ON THE TRENDS OF A STRONGER SHRTWV BY THE
GEM/EC/GFS LATE SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY THERE COULD BE A MCS TYPE OF
SCENARIO FOR FAR SOUTHERN MN. ANOTHER NOTE IS BY MIDWEEK BOTH THE
EC/GFS HAS A FAIRLY STRONG AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING
SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION. THIS SHOULD AT LEAST
DECREASE THE MOISTURE LEVELS IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER AS WINDS BECOME
MORE E/NE.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z THURSDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1222 PM CDT WED JUN 18 2014

EXPECTING WARM TEMPERATURES AT THE MID LEVELS OF THE ATMOSPHERE TO
CAP OFF THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT THIS AFTERNOON...SO WILL LIKELY
BE UNTIL AFTER DARK UNTIL MOST SITES SEE ANY SHRA/TS ACTIVITY.
EXPECT STORMS TO DEVELOP AGAIN TO THE WEST/SOUTH AND LIFT INTO THE
AREA THIS EVE/OVERNIGHT. HAVE INCLUDED TEMPOS FOR SAID
EXPECTATION...ALONG WITH CIG/VSBY REDUCTIONS TO MVFR. WILL QUITE
POSSIBLY SEE SHRA LINGER ON THURSDAY AND PROLONGED MVFR
CONDITIONS WITH THE WARM FRONT BISECTING THE AREA...WITH MORE
WIDESPREAD THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED LATE THURSDAY AFTERNOON/EVE AS
THE COLD FRONT FINALLY BEGINS TO MAKE ITS WAY EASTWARD ACROSS THE
AREA.

KMSP...
BKN MVFR LEVEL DECK SHOULD CONTINUE SCOURING OUT THIS AFTERNOON
WITH VFR CONDITIONS THEN EXPECTED UNTIL AFTER DARK WHEN SHRA/TS
CHANCES INCREASE. EXPECT THE HIGHEST LIKELIHOOD OF ORGANIZED
ACTIVITY TO OCCUR BETWEEN 04Z AND 09Z...WITH HIT OR MISS SHOWERS
AFTER THAT. DO EXPECT A BKN MVFR LEVEL DECK TO STICK AROUND
THURSDAY...WITH MORE ORGANIZED TS ACTIVITY ARRIVING AFTER 20Z AS
THE COLD FRONT APPROACHES.

/OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/

FRI...VFR. MVFR SHRA/TSRA POSSIBLE. WINDS SW 10 KTS.
SAT...VFR. MVFR SHRA/TSRA POSSIBLE. WINDS W 10 KTS.

THIS HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK IS FOR PORTIONS OF CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN MINNESOTA...AND WEST CENTRAL WISCONSIN.

.DAY ONE...THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

ANOTHER ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP LATE THIS AFTERNOON OVER
THE EASTERN DAKOTAS AND NORTHERN IOWA AND EXPAND EAST AND NORTH ACROSS
THE AREA THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT. THE MAIN THREATS FROM THIS
ACTIVITY WILL BE LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS...THOUGH A TORNADO
OR TWO WILL BE POSSIBLE...MAINLY ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL MINNESOTA.
IN ADDITION...HEAVY RAINFALL IS EXPECTED WITH THIS
ACTIVITY...WHICH WILL LEAD TO A CONTINUED THREAT FOR FLASH
FLOODING. THE GREATEST FLASH FLOOD THREAT WILL EXIST FROM SOUTH
CENTRAL MINNESOTA INTO EAST CENTRAL MINNESOTA AND WESTERN
WISCONSIN.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY

WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED AGAIN THURSDAY
INTO THURSDAY NIGHT. ONCE AGAIN...THERE IS A CHANCE THAT SOME OF
THESE STORMS COULD BE SEVERE AND POSE A CONTINUED THREAT OF FLASH
FLOODING. BY FRIDAY...THE FLOOD THREAT WILL TRANSITION TO
THE MAIN STEM RIVERS. MUCH OF THE MINNESOTA RIVER...AND THE
MISSISSIPPI RIVER FROM SAINT PAUL DOWN TOWARD RED WING COULD REACH
FLOOD STAGE BY THE WEEKEND.
