Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Bismarck ND
1244 AM CDT SUN JUL 10 2016

.UPDATE...

Issued at 1244 AM CDT Sun Jul 10 2016

Trimmed off several counties from the watch with associated
convection now well over southeastern ND. Another line of storms
over western ND will continue east-northeast during the
overnight. Strong to severe convection still possible, though none
at this time.

UPDATE
Issued at 1045 PM CDT Sat Jul 9 2016

Concentrated categorical pops south central and southeast this
evening, with increasing chances west into central overnight. No
changes to the Severe Thunderstorm Watch with this forecast
issuance.

Thunderstorm complexes being maintained by a strong Low Level Jet
(LLJ) across far south central ND and the James River Valley will
persist as they move east and south respectively through 05-06Z,
before they push out of my southeastern counties as the LLJ shifts
eastward.

Convection across eastern MT will move into western ND over the
next 2-3 hours and likely persist through the overnight as they
track east across the state. Strong to severe storms remain
possible given strong forcing aloft.

UPDATE
Issued at 841 PM CDT Sat Jul 9 2016

Quick update for Severe Thunderstorm Watch 366. Another update
will be issued within the next 75 minutes for updates to weather
grid elements.

UPDATE Issued at 527 PM CDT Sat Jul 9 2016

Quick update to account for temperatures running higher than
forecast across the far south central and southwest ND, where
there are some mid/upper 90s per last hours obs. Otherwise, no
other changes. Convection has continued to be limited to northeast
of our CWA.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Sunday)
Issued at 308 PM CDT Sat Jul 9 2016

Active period expected with severe storm threats as well as high
apparent temps on Sunday. Convection has moved out of our
southeast region with mostly sunny skies across the region. SPC
continues to place us in slight risk area for severe in the Day 1
outlook. High res models have waffled a bit during the day and
trended away from mid-afternoon development. Latest SPC meso
analysis page shows axis of 3000 to 4000 J/KG of CAPE extending
northward through western ND, approximately centered from Dickinson
to Williston along with substantial shear from 0 to 6 km level of
40 to 50 knots. Substantial capping in place as well with warm
base of elevated mixed layer inhibiting initiation and as noted in
SPC discussion, no significant large scale forcing with the parent
upper low well to the west. Operational HRRR still tries to
generate convection across the northeast and have maintained low
pops in place for this. In fact, have just seen a couple cells pop
up in Wells county. There also seems to be some general agreement
among the high res models for convection spreading into western ND
after 00z.

Therefore, expecting convection to continue overnight with support
of strengthening low level jet, which leads into Sunday where the
effects of better large scale forcing associated with the upper
low approaching from the west will increase. The entire state
remains in a slight risk of severe, with an enhanced risk along
and north of I-94. See day 2 outlook from SPC for details, but
expect storms to spread into ND from Montana by later
afternoon/evening with all modes of severe weather possible. GFS
maximizes sig tor parameter over northcentral and northeast parts
of our CWA after 21z Sunday.

With regard to heat, we will issue a heat advisory for parts of
south central and southeast ND on Sunday, from Sioux County
eastward to LaMoure and Dickey. High temps in the mid/upper 90s
combined with dew points in the mid/upper 60 will result in
apparent temperatures reaching the 100 to 105 degree range during
the afternoon.

.LONG TERM...(Sunday night through Saturday)
Issued at 308 PM CDT Sat Jul 9 2016

Precipitation will likely be slow to exit the region as deep upper
low only reaches eastern Montana by 12z Monday. Upper low then
progresses to just north of the state by 12z Tuesday, continuing
to support unsettled weather. This will lead to strong winds on
Monday night and particularly on Tuesday, where at least a wind
advisory for a portion of the area will likely be needed.
Following Sunday's heat, temperatures will run close to normal for
the upcoming week.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Sunday night)

Issued at 1244 AM CDT Sun Jul 10 2016

Overall VFR conditions forecast for the 06Z TAF period. Scattered
strong to severe thunderstorms expected through the period. Any
thunderstorms which impact terminals may result in IFR conditions
or lower for a brief period. Uncertainty exists about timing and
coverage for thunderstorms, so will amend TAFs as needed. Another
round of storms expected Sunday afternoon and evening, especially
for western and north central ND, including KDIK-KISN-KMOT.
