AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
1230 AM CDT SAT JUN 20 2015

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 408 PM CDT FRI JUN 19 2015

CONCERN FOR THE SHORT RANGE FORECAST IS FOCUSED ON TIMING OF SEVERE
CONVECTION OVERNIGHT...AS WELL AS THE DEGREE OF WIND EXPECTED WITH
DEVELOPING SYSTEM TONIGHT.

IN THE IMMEDIATE TERM...ELEVATED CONVECTION CONTINUES TO FESTER ALONG
LINGERING MID LEVEL WARM AIR ADVECTION ALONG THERMAL AXIS IN WAKE OF
THE EARLIER MCS. JAMES VALLEY HAS BEEN THE GRADIENT IN ELEVATED
INSTABILITY FOR MOST OF THE DAY...WITH STORMS WEAKENING AS SOON AS
THEY PROGRESS TO THE EAST. DEEP LAYER SHEAR OF 45 TO 50 KNOTS ABOVE
A MORE STABLE SURFACE LAYER MORE THAN SUFFICIENT TO ORGANIZE INTO
MULTICELL/SUPERCELL CLUSTER.  WRF-ARW HAS BEEN FAIRLY RELIABLE IN
TERMS OF CONVECTIVE MODE THUS FAR...AND INDICATIONS ARE THAT AS
CURRENT CLUSTER OF CELLS WORKS SOUTHEASTWARD LATE AFTERNOON...WILL
SOON WEAKEN AND LEAVE A SEVERAL HOUR PERIOD OF QUIET CONDITIONS
THROUGH THE EVENING.

STRONG JET MOVING THROUGH THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST INTO THE NORTHERN
ROCKIES THIS AFTERNOON. AS LARGE SCALE LIFT INCREASES ACROSS
SOUTHEASTERN MONTANA...EXPECT CONVECTION TO INITIATE LATE AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING. MODE WILL EVOLVE DURING THE EVENING ACROSS
NORTHWESTERN SOUTH DAKOTA TO A FORWARD PROPAGATING MCS. A BIT HIGHER
CONFIDENCE IN ORGANIZING A HIGHER END SYSTEM WITH THE INCREASE IN
MODEL SUGGESTED 0-3KM SHEAR TO AROUND 40 KTS. DAMAGING WIND WOULD
CONTINUE TO BE THE LARGEST THREAT...PERHAPS UP TO 80 MPH IN
NORTHERN/WESTERN CWA. EARLY IN EVENT AND ALONG PREFERRED DEVELOPMENT
ZONE ALONG THE SOUTHERN FLANK SHOULD ALSO FIND A LARGE HAIL
THREAT...HALF DOLLAR TO PING PONG SIZED...WITH GOOD INFLOW AT 850
HPA AND ELEVATED INSTABILITY TO AROUND 1500-2000 J/KG. THREAT SHOULD
BECOMING INCREASINGLY WIND WEIGHTED HEADING TO THE EAST/SOUTHEAST.

WITH HIGH RATE OF MOTION EXPECTED OF SYSTEM...PERHAPS 45 TO 50 KNOTS
AT THE PEAK DURING THE LATTER HALF OF THE OVERNIGHT IF CAN PUT FULL
FAITH IN MOTION VECTORS...THE TOTAL RAINFALL WILL BE SOMEWHAT
LIMITED...AND DECIDED NOT TO ISSUE A FLASH FLOOD WATCH. HOWEVER...
RATES WILL END UP QUITE EFFICIENT FOR A SHORT TIME...AND COULD LEAD
TO SOME RAPID PONDING IN URBAN AND POOR DRAINAGE AREAS.

STABILIZATION IN WAKE OF MCS LIKELY TO KEEP ADDITIONAL CONVECTION
FROM DEVELOPING MIDDAY ALONG SURFACE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IN NORTHWEST
IOWA. WILL BECOME A FAIRLY BREEZY DAY AS WINDS SHIFT TO THE
NORTHWEST AND NORTH BEHIND THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY. GOOD MIXING AND
GRADUAL REMOVAL OF ANY POST MCS STABLE CLOUD FIELD SHOULD ALLOW
TEMPS TO PUSH WELL INTO THE 80S.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 408 PM CDT FRI JUN 19 2015

HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE AREA WHICH SHOULD SUPPRESS THE
INSTABILITY TO THE SOUTH AND WEST OF THE AREA. THUS WILL ONLY HAVE A
SMALL CHANCE AROUND GREGORY COUNTY LATE SATURDAY NIGHT.
LOW TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE PEASANT IN THE LOWER 60S.

SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT INSTABILITY WILL INCREASE AND MID LEVEL
FORCING WILL ALSO INCREASE SO WILL NEED TO MAINTAIN SOME SCATTERED
POPS IN BOTH PERIODS. INSTABILITY A LITTLE MORE IMPRESSIVE ON SUNDAY
NIGHT SO ANY SEVERE THREAT WOULD BE BETTER THEN. ANOTHER DAY WITH
HIGHS LIKELY IN THE 80S AND LOWS IN THE 60S.

AS THE ENERGY MOVES THROUGH MONDAY SHOULD HAVE A MUCH LOWER CHANCE
FOR THUNDERSTORMS. HIGHS MAINLY IN THE 80S AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
SOUTH.

IN THE OUTER PERIODS (TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)...FAST WESTERLY
FLOW ALOFT WILL GRADUALLY TRANSITION TO NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT LATE
IN THE PERIOD AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS TO THE WEST. THIS
WILL LIKELY CONTINUE THE THREAT FOR THUNDERSTORMS AND ALSO KEEP
TEMPERATURES AT OR A LITTLE BELOW NORMAL. AT THIS TIME TUESDAY
INTO WEDNESDAY LOOKS LIKE THE BEST CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS WITH
DECREASING CHANCES THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. AHEAD OF THE MAIN
SURGE OF COOLER AIR AS NORTHWEST FLOW BECOMES ESTABLISHED THERE
COULD BE A PRETTY WARM DAY AND RIGHT NOW THE BEST CHANCE FOR THAT
LOOKS LIKE DAY 7...FRIDAY...SO NOT GOING TO GET TOO AGGRESSIVE
WITH THAT FORECAST JUST YET.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z SATURDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1227 AM CDT SAT JUN 20 2015

WENT AHEAD AND KEPT THE MENTION OF TSRA FOR THE KHON AND KFSD TAF

CENTER WHICH IS CURRENTLY NEAR FAITH SD...ESPECIALLY FOR THE HURON
