BORGHOFFWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Twin Cities, MN wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 7, 7:12 PM CDT, 4 hours 25 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 7, 7:12 PM CDT, 4 hours 25 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TWIN CITIES/CHANHASSEN MN 712 PM CDT WED MAY 7 2014 .SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY) ISSUED AT 348 PM CDT WED MAY 7 2014 ACTIVE SHORT TERM WITH 2-3 ROUNDS OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS. THE MAIN THREAT TONIGHT IS LARGE HAIL...HOWEVER...TOMORROW WILL BRING THE TREAT OF HAIL...WIND AND TORNADOES. TONIGHT... MUCH OF WESTERN IOWA AND EASTERN NE HAS WARMED INTO THE UPPER 80S AND LOWER 90S THIS AFTERNOON...MEANWHILE...MUCH OF SOUTHERN MN REMAINS IN THE UPPER 60S AND LOWER 70S WITH EAST-SOUTHEAST WINDS. THE WARM FRONT IS JUST SOUTH OF THE MN/IA BORDER AND THERE IS A NICE CU FIELD DEVELOPING IN NORTH CENTRAL IA ON THE WARM SIDE OF THE BOUNDARY. THE WARM LAYER ALOFT IS SUPPRESSING CONVECTION ACROSS IA/NE...BUT CONVECTION HAS BROKEN OUT ACROSS EASTERN SD AND WESTERN THIS AFTERNOON ON THE EDGE OF THE WARM LAYER BUT STILL WITHIN AN AREA OF 1000+ MUCAPE AND NEARLY DRY ADIABATIC 700-500MB LAPSE RATES. THIS COMBINED WITH 50-60KTS OF DEEP LAYER SHEAR HAS LED TO ROBUST CONVECTION WITH STRONG UPDRAFTS AND REPORTS OF HAIL AS LARGE AS BASEBALLS NEAR THE MN/SD STATE LINE. THIS ACTIVITY WILL CONTINUE MOVING NORTHEAST...BUT WEAKEN THE FARTHER NORTH-NORTHEAST IT GETS AS IT RUNS OUT OF ELEVATED INSTABILITY. FARTHER EAST...IN EASTERN MINNESOTA AND WISCONSIN...THE WEATHER WILL LIKELY REMAIN TRANQUIL THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING. THE NORTHWARD SURGING WARM FRONT AND ISENTROPIC LIFT SHOULD PROMOTE CONVECTIVE INITIATION CLOSER TO SUNSET OR SHORTLY THEREAFTER. THE 0-6KM BULK SHEAR AND EFFECTIVE SHEAR WILL DECREASE THE FARTHER EAST YOU GO IN MN. THIS MAY SOMEWHAT LIMIT THE SEVERITY OF STORMS LATE THIS EVENING IN AREAS FARTHER EAST...BUT NONETHELESS...THE ELEVATED INSTABILITY AND LAPSE RATES WILL BE QUITE IMPRESSIVE AND SEVERE HAIL IS LIKELY WITH THE CONVECTION THIS EVENING. 1-2" HAILSTONES WILL BE EASILY ATTAINABLE IN AREAS SUCH AS THE TWIN CITIES METRO...AND SIG SEVERE HAIL />2"/ CAN NOT BE RULED OUT GIVEN WHAT HAS ALREADY OCCURRED TODAY. WHILE WE DON'T THINK STORMS WILL BE ROOTED IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER THIS EVENING...IF ANY ACTIVITY MANAGES TO FORM IN FAR SOUTHERN MN CLOSE TO THE SURFACE WARM FRONT...THESE STORMS WILL NEED TO BE MONITORED FOR HAZARDS OTHER THAN LARGE HAIL. TOMORROW... THE PATTERN TOMORROW LOOKS QUITE FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE WEATHER. THE NAM REMAINS SLIGHTLY FASTER AND SLIGHTLY NORTH AND WEST WITH THE SURFACE LOW TRACK WHEN COMPARED TO THE ECMWF AND GFS. THERE IS GOOD MODEL AGREEMENT IN STRETCHING THE WARM FRONT FROM SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA INTO WEST CENTRAL OR NORTHWEST WI BY 18Z THURSDAY. THE 12Z SOLUTIONS ALSO HAVE A SURFACE TROUGH EXTENDING NORTHEAST ALONG THE BOUNDARY. THIS BOUNDARY...COMBINED WITH THE ADVANCING 100KT 300MB JET...AND 500 MB HEIGHT FALLS BETWEEN 15Z-18Z SUGGEST CONVECTION WILL HAPPEN EARLY AND BE WIDESPREAD. THIS COMPLICATES THE AFTERNOON SEVERE POTENTIAL WITH RESPECT TO SURFACE HEATING AND THE DEGREE OF DESTABILIZATION. THE BEST OVERLAP IN 0-1KM SHEAR...0-6KM SHEAR...AND INSTABILITY WILL OCCUR FROM 18-00Z IN EASTERN MN AND WESTERN WI. SURFACE DEWPOINTS IN THE LOWER 60S COMBINED WITH THE STEEP PROFILE WILL GENERATE 1500-2000 J/KG OF SBCAPE. THERE IS ALSO THE ADDED HELICITY DUE TO THE CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE SURFACE LOW. WEAKENING CIN AND STRONG FORCING SHOULD SUPPORT STORMS ROOTED IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER AND A THREAT TO STRAIGHT LINE WIND AND TORNADOES. THE STORMS WILL BE MOVING FAST AND QUICKLY END UP IN WISCONSIN BY THE AFTERNOON. .LONG TERM...(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY) ISSUED AT 348 PM CDT WED MAY 7 2014 STRONG/SEVERE CONVECTION CONTINUES INTO THE THURSDAY NIGHT PERIOD OF THE LONG TERM. WE SHOULD SEE ACTIVITY WANE TOWARD THE 06Z TIME PERIOD. THE STRONGER INSTABILITY IS SHUNTED TO THE NORTHEAST PORTION OF THE AREA AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES EAST AND SURFACE LOW MOVES NORTHEAST AND WEAKENS. WILL LIKELY SEE SOME WRAP AROUND SHOWERS AFFECTING THE AREA AS AN EXTENSION OF THE UPPER TROUGH SWINGS ACROSS THE AREA EARLY FRIDAY. SHOULD SEE CONDITIONS IMPROVE DURING THE AFTERNOON AND BECOMING DRY BY FRIDAY EVENING. LONGER RANGE MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW ANOTHER SHORT WAVE LIFTING TO THE NORTHEAST AFFECTING THE AREA SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT. THE MODELS DIVERGE AFTER THAT WITH THE ECMWF CONTINUING TO TREND SLOWER AND DEEPER WITH THE WESTERN TROUGH. THIS CONTINUES TO SPREAD MOISTURE NORTHEAST OVER THE CWA INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...WITH A GENERAL OVERALL COOLING TREND AS THE UPPER TROUGH MOVES THROUGH. && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY EVENING) ISSUED AT 701 PM CDT WED MAY 7 2014 SCT TSRA ARE BEGINNING TO DEVELOP ACROSS SOUTHERN MINNESOTA AT TAF ISSUANCE TIME. THESE STORMS WILL LIFT NORTH THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS...LIKELY AFFECTING RWF UNTIL 03Z...AND MSP/RNH BETWEEN 02-06Z. THESE STORMS MAY BE SEVERE. MORE STORMS NEAR STC WILL PUSH THROUGH BY 03Z. THE REST OF THE TERMINALS SHOULD REMAIN MOSTLY DRY THIS EVENING. OVERNIGHT...THERE MAY BE A CONSOLIDATION OF TSRA ACROSS ERN MN AND WRN WI WHICH WILL EXIT THE REGION EARLY THURSDAY. CIGS WILL DETERIORATE TO MVFR LEVELS TONIGHT. CIGS WILL LIFT AND SHOULD SCATTER OUT IN THE WARM SECTOR THURSDAY MORNING ACROSS ERN MN AND WRN WI. MORE TSRA WILL DEVELOP THURSDAY AFTERNOON AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT. KMSP...BEST CHANCE FOR STORMS TONIGHT WILL BE BETWEEN 02-06Z. THESE MAY BE SEVERE WITH LARGE HAIL. THERE IS STILL UNCERTAINTY WITH HOW THE SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL EVOLVE OVERNIGHT...BUT THERE COULD BE A FEW HOURS WITH OF LIGHT RAIN BEFORE THE ACTIVITY PUSHES EAST THURSDAY MORNING. /OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/ FRI...MVFR AND CHC -SHRA EARLY...THEN VFR.
