538 AM CST FRI FEB 19 2016
.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 532 AM CST FRI FEB 19 2016
ONGOING 12Z BALLOON FLIGHT SHOWS WINDS UNDER 50 KNOTS 1500 TO 1900
FEET ABOVE THE GROUND...LOWER THAN WHAT THE MODELS INDICATED. AS
SUCH THIS MIGHT AFFECT HOW STRONG THE WINDS GET LATE THIS MORNING
AND DURING THE AFTERNOON.
&&
.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 249 AM CST FRI FEB 19 2016
06Z SFC DATA HAS A DEEP LOW PRESSURE OVER SOUTH DAKOTA NEAR KMBG. A
WARM FRONT RAN FROM NORTHEAST NEBRASKA TO NEAR KEVV WHILE A COLD
FRONT RAN FROM EASTERN NEBRASKA INTO SOUTHEAST COLORADO. DEW POINTS
WERE IN THE 20S AND 30S FROM THE OHIO VALLEY AND GREAT LAKES INTO
THE NORTHERN PLAINS. DEW POINTS IN THE 40S AND 50S RAN FROM THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO SOUTHWEST IOWA.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 249 AM CST FRI FEB 19 2016
ALTHOUGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR RECORDS FOR TODAY...SEE CLIMATE
SECTION BELOW...THE MORE IMPORTANT MESSAGE WILL BE THE VERY WINDY
CONDITIONS.
THE START TIME OF THE ADVISORY HAS BEEN PUSHED BACK 3 HOURS TO 9 AM.
ADDITIONALLY...VAN BUREN AND LEE COUNTIES IN IOWA...AND HANCOCK
COUNTY IN ILLINOIS WERE ADDED TO THE ADVISORY.
THE 12Z BALLOON LAUNCH WILL PROVIDE THE DEFINITIVE INFORMATION.
HOWEVER...DATA FROM THE 88D INDICATES WINDS OF 50-55 KNOTS AROUND
1500 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND. ONCE THE INVERSION BREAKS THIS
MORNING...DEEP MIXING WILL ALLOW THIS HIGHER MOMENTUM AIR TO MIX
DOWN AND RAMP UP WIND SPEEDS SIGNIFICANTLY ACROSS THE AREA.
BASED ON THE OVERALL SYNOPTIC SITUATION...THIS LOOKS TO BE A HIGH
END ADVISORY AND PRODUCTS WILL BE WORDED ACCORDINGLY. I WOULD NOT BE
SURPRISED AT ALL TO SEE SOME VERY ISOLATED WIND GUSTS TO NEAR 60 MPH.
TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN SLOWLY RISING OVERNIGHT FROM A MID EVENING
LOW. THE COMBINATION OF WARM TEMPERATURES AND WIND WILL HELP TO
MELT/EVAPORATE THE MOST OF THE SNOW COVER ACROSS THE NORTH. MUCH OF
THE AREA WILL BE 20 OR MORE DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL FOR HIGH
TEMPERATURES TODAY.
TONIGHT...WINDS WILL SLOWLY DECREASE DURING THE EVENING BUT REMAIN
ELEVATED THROUGH MIDNIGHT BEFORE DECREASING FURTHER. LOWS TONIGHT
WILL STILL BE QUITE WARM IN SPITE OF THE PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT
DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS.
.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 249 AM CST FRI FEB 19 2016
GRADUAL COOLING TREND RETURNING TO NEAR NORMAL TEMPERATURES BY EARLY
NEXT WEEK AND GENERALLY DRY.
LONG TERM FORECAST CONFIDENCE ASSESSMENT...GOOD OR ABOVE AVERAGE
WITH LITTLE SENSIBLE WEATHER ISSUES. A QUIET AND GENERALLY DRY
NORTHWEST TO WEST FLOW PATTERN WITH WEAK PASSING DISTURBANCES WITH
LIMITED MOISTURE. A DEFAULT 50/50 MIX OF HI-RES ECMWF/GFS IS
SUPPORTED.
SATURDAY...MOSTLY SUNNY AND STILL UNSEASONABLY MILD. LIGHT
NORTHWEST WINDS COMBINED WITH HIGHS LOWER 50S NORTH TO LOWER 60S
SOUTH TO MAKE FOR THE BEST DAY FOR OUTSIDE ACTIVITIES MORE COMMON IN
LATE MARCH INTO APRIL.
SATURDAY NIGHT...INCREASING CLOUDS WITH A VERY CHANCE OF SPRINKLES
OR VERY LIGHT RAIN SOUTH WITH MINS MOSTLY MID/UPPER 30S.
SUNDAY...WEAK DISTURBANCE MAY BRING A CHANCE OF LIGHT RAIN OR WET
SNOW WITH LITTLE NO ACCUMULATIONS UNDER A PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY
SKY. HIGHS SHOULD BE MOSTLY IN THE 40S WITH LIGHT NORTHWEST WINDS
DEVELOPING. SUNDAY NIGHT...CLEARING AND TURNING COLDER WITH LOWS
IN THE 20S.
MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...MOSTLY FAIR TO FAIR SKIES WITH HIGHS MOSTLY
35 TO 45 AND LOWS MOSTLY IN THE 20S WITH WINDS 5 TO 15 MPH. PRETTY
DECENT WEATHER FOR LATE FEBRUARY.
