AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE TWIN CITIES/CHANHASSEN MN
454 AM CDT SAT JUL 11 2015

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 454 AM CDT SAT JUL 11 2015

THE MAIN CHANGE TO THE SHORT TERM FORECAST WAS TO DECREASE POPS
ACROSS THE REGION. CANT GO COMPLETELY DRY...BUT TRIED TO TREND IN
THAT DIRECTION.

EARLY MORNING WATER VAPOR IMAGERY TOGETHER WITH THE 500MB HEIGHTS
AND WINDS SHOWED A FEW AREAS OF CONVECTION TIED TO A LOW AMPLITUDE
SHORTWAVE TROUGH APPROACHING FROM THE SOUTHWEST. AS THIS WAVE SLOWLY
MARCHES TOWARD THE CWA THE MAIN AREAS OF FORCING WILL SPLIT TO THE
NORTH AND SOUTH...AND SO TOO SHOULD THE AREAS OF PRECIPITATION.

MODELS SHOW DIVERGENCE IN THE LOW LEVEL WIND FIELD...WITH SLIGHT
CONVERGENCE ALOFT AT 500MB SATURDAY AFTERNOON. IN ADDITION...GFS
FORECAST SOUNDINGS ARE CAPPED ALL DAY. LASTLY...MOST HIRES MODELS
KEEP THE REGION DRY AS WELL. TOGETHER THIS SUPPORTS LOWERING POPS
ACROSS THE REGION TODAY. LATER TONIGHT LOW LEVEL THETA_E ADVECTION
COULD LEAD TO A FEW SCATTERED STORMS...SO HAVE HIGHEST POPS CENTERED
AROUND 06Z. TODAYS TEMPERATURES WILL BE A COUPLE DEGREES COOLER THAN
YESTERDAYS SINCE MORE CLOUDS ARE EXPECTED.

.LONG TERM...(SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 454 AM CDT SAT JUL 11 2015

WE COULD FINISH OUT THE WEEKEND WITH A BANG. THE DAY SHOULD START
WITH VERY WARM AND HUMID CONDITIONS...BUT MIGHT FINISH WITH
STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS IN MN/WI.

A MOIST BOUNDARY LAYER WILL BE IN PLACE SUNDAY AND THE MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES ONLY STEEPEN LATE IN THE DAY IN RESPONSE TO AN
APPROACHING TROUGH FROM THE WEST. THE RESULT WILL BE LARGE CAPE
VALUES AND A TRIGGER WITH THE ADVANCING WAVE. WITH AFTERNOON TEMPS
NEAR 90 AND DEWPOINTS BETWEEN 70-75...IT IS NOT A SURPRISE THAT
THERE WILL BE A LARGE RESERVOIR OF INSTABILITY...WITH THE LOCAL
AREA SEEING 3000-4000 J/KG OF SBCAPE BY THE AFTERNOON /OR 5000
J/KG IF YOU BUY THE NAM/ IN EASTERN MN AND WESTERN WI. THERE IS
SOME CAPPING IN THE MORNING AND AFTERNOON ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF
OF MINNESOTA...BUT SOME CIN IS DEFINITELY FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE AS
LONG AS YOU EVENTUALLY BREAK THE CAP...WHICH WE SHOULD. IN
ADDITION TO THE SHORTWAVE SUNDAY AFTERNOON. A 100KT UPPER JET
LIFTS NORTH ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND INTO THE MID/UPPER MISS.
THIS PUTS THE FORECAST AREA NEAR THE LEFT EXIT REGION OF THE JET
MAX. CENTRAL MN LOOKS LIKE A REALLY GOOD LOCATION FOR THE INITIAL
CONVECTIVE INITIATION AT THIS POINT...WITH VIGOROUS CONVECTION
THEN PROPAGATING EAST-SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT
SUNDAY NIGHT. THE CIPS ANALOGS OFF THE NAM SUPPORTS THIS IDEA. THE
DEEP LAYER SHEAR IS DECENT BUT NOT FANTASTIC...THERE
IS...HOWEVER...AN EXCELLENT SHAPE TO THE FORECAST HODOGRAPH ON
SUNDAY WITH GOOD CYCLONIC CURVATURE IN RESPONSE TO THE SOUTHEAST
BL WINDS. THE 11.06Z NAM GOES NUTS WITH THE SIG TOR PARAMETER
FORECAST SUNDAY EVENING AND HAS VALUES BETWEEN 5 AND 15 ACROSS THE
SOUTHERN HALF OF MN. WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE A LITTLE MORE SPEED
SHEAR BETWEEN 0-1KM TO BE REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT TORNADOES...BUT
OVERALL THE THREAT IS STILL THERE FOR TORNADOES AND CERTAINLY THE
THREAT FOR DAMAGING WINDS AND LARGE HAIL. IN SUMMARY...SUNDAY
AFTERNOON AND EVENING HAS GOOD POTENTIAL TO BE THE WORST SEVERE
WEATHER DAY OF THE YEAR SO FAR LOCALLY IN WHAT HAS BEEN A FAIRLY
QUIET SEASON UP TO THIS POINT. BEFORE THE THUNDER CHANCES ON
SUNDAY...MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA WILL APPROACH 100 FOR A HEAT
INDEX GIVEN THE HIGHER SURFACE DEWPOINTS.

BEYOND SUNDAY...THE LARGE-SCALE RIDGE SHOULD BUILD BACK OVER THE
REGION MON-TUE BEFORE FLATTENING OUT WITH ZONAL FLOW OVER THE
UPPER MISS. THIS FLOW PATTERN MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO PIN DOWN
SPECIFICS ON PRECIP/CLOUD COVER ETC. THERE WILL LIKELY BE SEVERAL
SHORT WAVE TROUGHS TO BE EMBEDDED IN THE FLOW TO GO ALONG WITH A
FAIRLY MOIST AIR MASS AND INSTABILITY. AS A RESULT THERE IS A LOT
OF THUNDERSTORM CHANCES IN THE EXTENDED.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z SATURDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1117 PM CDT FRI JUL 10 2015

VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING UNDER HIGH
CLOUDS...EXCEPT PERHAPS FOR A BRIEF PERIOD AT EAU WHERE VERY LIGHT
WINDS AND A DECENT INVERSION DEVELOPING NEAR THE MOIST SURFACE
COULD LEAD TO SOME PATCHY FOG AROUND SUNRISE. MODELS HAVE RECENTLY
BACKED OFF THE THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE SHOWN FROM SATURDAY MORNING
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON...BUT A BRIEF SHOWER OR ISOLATED STORM IS
POSSIBLE IN THE LATE MORNING IN SW MN...AND THROUGH THE AFTERNOON
AND EVENING ACROSS CENTRAL/EASTERN MN AND WEST CENTRAL WI. HAVE
INCLUDED VCSH WORDING DUE TO THE MINIMAL COVERAGE OF
PRECIPITATION...BUT AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM IS STILL POSSIBLE
DURING THE AFTERNOON WITH AMPLE INSTABILITY PRESENT. CURRENT
VISIBILITY MODELS ARE SHOWING THE POTENTIAL FOR LOWER CIGS TO
DEVELOP OVER OUR WISCONSIN TERMINALS AFTER SUNSET SATURDAY
NIGHT...SO INCLUDED SOME MVFR CIGS AT EAU AND RNH AFTER 02Z.

KMSP...VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE PERIOD.
CURRENT MODELS ARE SHOWING A SMALLER CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS ON
SATURDAY AFTERNOON...BUT AN ISOLATED SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM STILL
CANNOT BE RULED OUT FROM THE EARLY AFTERNOON THROUGH AROUND
SUNSET. LIGHT SOUTHERLY WINDS OVERNIGHT WILL BECOME SOUTHEASTERLY
BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH THE EVENING...WITH WIND SPEEDS
AROUND 10-15 KTS AT THIS TIME.

/OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/
SUN...VFR WITH CHC MVFR/IFR SHRA/TSRA. WINDS SE AT 5-10 KTS.
MON...VFR WITH CHC MVFR/IFR SHRA/TSRA. WINDS S BCMG W AT 5 KTS.
