AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BISMARCK ND
940 AM CDT SAT OCT 10 2015

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 933 AM CDT SAT OCT 10 2015

NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES WITH THIS FORECAST UPDATE FOR TODAY OTHER
THAN TO BLEND TO OBSERVED TRENDS THROUGH 14 UTC. GIVEN THE
CONSISTENCY AND AGREEMENT IN THE 06 AND INCOMING 12 UTC
DETERMINISTIC SUITE...A HIGH WIND WATCH MAY BE NEEDED FOR
MOST...IF NOT ALL OF WESTERN AND CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AND NIGHT.

UPDATE ISSUED AT 633 AM CDT SAT OCT 10 2015

HIGH CLOUDS CONTINUES TO STREAM OVER THE AREA. THEREFORE...HAVE
INCREASED CLOUD COVER THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS. REMAINDER OF
FORECAST WAS IN GOOD SHAPE.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 318 AM CDT SAT OCT 10 2015

MAIN FOCUS FOR THE SHORT TERM IS WARM TEMPERATURES AND FIRE
POTENTIAL ACROSS SOUTHWEST NORTH DAKOTA.

AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE AND STRONG WARM AIR ADVECTION WILL BE
CENTERED ACROSS NORTH DAKOTA TODAY. SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL MIX DOWN
WARMER TEMPERATURES ALOFT. MOST MODEL GUIDANCE SUGGESTS
TEMPERATURES IN THE LOW TO MID 80S WILL BE LIKELY TODAY ACROSS
MOST OF THE AREA TODAY. MIXING WINDS MAY ALSO LEAD TO SOME BREEZY
CONDITIONS. RAP/NAM SOUNDINGS SUGGEST WEST WINDS AROUND 20 MPH
WITH HIGHER GUSTS WILL BE LIKELY. THESE WINDS COMBINED WITH LOW
HUMIDITY AROUND 20 TO 25 PERCENT ACROSS SOUTHWEST NORTH DAKOTA
MAY PRODUCE NEAR CRITICAL FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS. HOWEVER...GIVEN
THE MARGINAL NATURE OF THESE CONDITIONS WILL HOLD OFF ON ISSUING
ANY FIRE WEATHER HEADLINES AT THIS TIME.

.LONG TERM...(SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 318 AM CDT SAT OCT 10 2015

PRIMARY CONCERN IN THE LONG TERM WILL BE WINDS ACROSS THE AREA AND
FIRE WEATHER POTENTIAL IN THE FAR SOUTHWEST ON SUNDAY.

ON SUNDAY...SHORT WAVE AND AFFILIATED COLD FRONT PUSH INTO THE
AREA AS AN UPPER LOW SLIDES FROM ALBERTA TOWARDS SOUTHERN
MANITOBA. MODELS REMAIN CONSISTENT WITH DEVELOPING 45-50KT 850MB
WINDS BY LATE AFTERNOON WITH ADEQUATE MIXING...RESULTING IN GUSTY
WINDS OVER THE AREA AS THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH. LATEST MODELS
CONTINUE TO MIX WINDS DOWN IN THE EVENING HOURS...PARTICULARLY
TOWARDS CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA. AT THAT TIME PERIOD 850MB WINDS
INCREASE TO AROUND 55KTS...SO HAVE INCREASED WIND SPEEDS THROUGH
THE OVERNIGHT. WILL HOLD BACK ON ANY HEADLINES FOR NOW TO GIVE
NEXT SHIFT A CHANCE TO SEE IF MODELS CONTINUE TO ADVERTISE THIS
MIXING ON SUBSEQUENT RUNS. ALONG WITH THE WINDS...A FEW SHOWERS
MAY DEVELOP AS THE SHORTWAVE PUSHES IN...MAINLY IN THE EVENING
HOURS OVER NORTHERN LOCATIONS.

ALONG WITH THE WINDS ON SUNDAY...FIRE WEATHER CONCERNS EXIST OVER
FAR SOUTHWEST NORTH DAKOTA WHERE CRITICAL FUELS EXIST. AS OF
NOW...RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES LOOK TO POSSIBLY BE IN THE MID 20S
WHEN THE STRONG WINDS DEVELOP...ALTHOUGH THIS IS HIGHLY DEPENDENT
ON THE TIMING OF THE COLD FRONT. WILL RE-EVALUATE LATER TODAY AND
A FIRE WEATHER HIGHLIGHT MAY BE NEEDED.

COOLER...THOUGH NEAR AVERAGE...TEMPERATURES RETURN ON MONDAY IN
THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT. SOME AREAS OVER THE CENTRAL AND EAST
WILL REMAIN WINDY THROUGH THE MORNING...WITH WINDS DIMINISHING IN
THE AFTERNOON. DRY CONDITIONS AND NEAR TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE AVERAGE
TEMPERATURES ARE THEN EXPECTED THROUGH THE WORK WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SUNDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 933 AM CDT SAT OCT 10 2015

VFR CONDITIONS TODAY ACROSS WESTERN AND CENTRAL NORTH DAKOTA WITH
WESTERLY WIND GUSTS OF 20-30 KTS. A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE AREA ON SUNDAY. VERY STRONG WEST-NORTHWEST WINDS WITH
GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 40KTS ARE EXPECTED SUNDAY AFTERNOON AND NIGHT
BEHIND THE FRONT.
