EXPECT BAND OF RAIN TO LIFT NORTH THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA...AND WILL BE MOST PREVALENT ACROSS CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA NEAR INVERTED TROUGH TYPE FEATURE. EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO BECOME MORE SCATTERED ACROSS THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA THIS AFTERNOON. THE BREAK IN PRECIPITATION MAY ALLOW FOR TEMPERATURES TO RISE SLIGHTLY. ELSEWHERE...EXPECT TEMPERATURES TO REMAIN STEADY IF NOT FALL SLIGHTLY AS SLIGHTLY COOLER AIR WORKS IN ALOFT. MAY SEE A FEW LIGHTNING STRIKES ACROSS THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF THE FORECAST AREA ON WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS LIFTING FROM WARM LAYER NEAR 850 YIELDS SOME MARGINAL CAPE. CERTAINLY NOT EXPECTING ANYTHING IN TERMS OF SEVERE WEATHER. FOR TONIGHT...EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO BE MOST COMMON ACROSS THE HIGHWAY 14 CORRIDOR INTO CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA AS UPPER WAVE PIVOTS BACK TO THE NORTHWEST. TEMPERATURES ARE ALSO EXPECTED TO FALL THROUGH THE NIGHT...AND COULD SEE SOME SNOW MIX IN WITH RAIN ALONG HIGHWAY 14 CORRIDOR. SOUNDING PROFILES ARE ACTUALLY QUITE INTERESTING...AS SATURATION IN THE DENDRITIC LAYER IS QUESTIONABLE AT TIMES. IN ADDITION...THERE IS A SATURATE SUBFREEZING LAYER JUST ABOVE THE SURFACE...BUT IS NOT COOL ENOUGH TO REFREEZE PRECIPITATION PARTICLES. THEREFORE...EXPECT RAIN TO CONTINUE TO BE DOMINANT PRECIPITATION TYPE...BUT COULD HAVE SOME SNOW MIXED IN IF ICE CRYSTAL IS ABLE TO SURVIVE FROM ALOFT. .LONG TERM...(THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY) ISSUED AT 410 AM CDT WED APR 27 2016 ON THURSDAY...OUR UPPER LOW FINALLY FILLS A BIT AND MOVES EASTWARD...AS A WELL ADVERTISED SECOND UPPER LEVEL LOW MOVES CLOSER TO THE FOUR CORNERS AREA GIVING THIS CURRENT LOW THE BOOT. BUT THURSDAY WILL CONTINUE TO BE A LITTLE UNSETTLED...CERTAINLY CLOUDY WITH SOME LIGHT SHOWERS. THE MORE WIDESPREAD SHOWER ACTIVITY WILL FAVOR THE NORTHERN HALF OF OUR FORECAST AREA IN THE MORNING...WITH THE PRECIP BECOMING SKITTISH IN THE AFTERNOON. THE NORTHERN HALF OF OUR FORECAST AREA HAS THE FORCING...WITH SOME DECENT MID AND UPPER LEVEL QG FORCING NORTH OF INTERSTATE 90. THE GFS IS A LITTLE FASTER WITH THE MOVEMENT OF THE LOW EASTWARD...BUT ALL MODELS ARE ALSO SHOWING A SUBTLE VORT FILAMENT EXTENDING WESTWARD THROUGH OUR FORECAST AREA...AND CONNECTING INTO A WEAK LOW IN WESTERN MT. THIS HELPS THE MOISTURE PROFILE REMAIN SATURATED BETWEEN 850 AND 700MB. WITH THE CLOUDS AND OFF AN ON LIGHT RAIN...TRENDED TOWARD THE COOLER GUIDANCE READINGS FOR HIGHS...WHICH WAS A BLEND OF THE RAW MODEL VALUES INCLUDING THE ECMWF. BUT STRAIGHT ECMWF LOOK TOO COLD. WOULD NOT RULE OUT A CHANCE FOR SNOW IN OUR NORTHERN ZONES MIXED WITH THE RAINFALL THURSDAY MORNING. THE SOUNDING PROFILES ARE HOVERING A COUPLE OF DEGREES EITHER SIDE OF FREEZING IN THE LOWEST LAYERS...BUT WITH SURFACE TEMPERATURES IN THE MID 30S AND LIGHT PRECIP RATES...ANY SNOWFALL WILL LIKELY NOT STICK. THINGS FINALLY DRY OUT SOME THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...PERHAPS WITH A SLIGHT CHANCE OF LIGHT RAIN IN OUR MO RIVER VALLEY ZONES FRIDAY. THE NAM IS A FAST OUTLIER WITH THE ONSLAUGHT OF RAINFALL ON FRIDAY COMPARED TO THE ECMWF...GFS AND GEM GLOBAL. THEREFORE THE NAM WAS NOT FOLLOWED. BELIEVE THE LATTER THREE MODELS ARE CAPTURING THE DRIER PROFILE DUE TO THE UPPER RIDGE STILL IN THIS AREA AHEAD OF THE ADVANCING UPPER LOW TO THE SOUTHWEST. DUE TO ANTICIPATED LINGERING CLOUD COVER THURSDAY NIGHT...TEMPERATURES SHOULD REMAIN COMFORTABLY ABOVE FREEZING...FOLLOWED BY A CHILLY DAY ON FRIDAY WITH HIGHS IN THE 50S. AGAIN...TRENDED TOWARD THE COOLER RAW MODEL GUIDANCE VALUES AS THERE STILL COULD BE A FAIR AMOUNT OF CLOUD COVER. AT ANY RATE... EVEN WITHOUT CLOUD COVER...IT IS CHILLY FROM 925-850MB. THIS WEEKEND...THE GFS AND ECMWF ARE IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE TIMING AND PLACEMENT OF THE AFOREMENTIONED NEXT UPPER LEVEL LOW. RAIN WILL OVERSPREAD FROM SOUTH TO NORTH FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY. HIGHS ON SATURDAY WILL BE MISERABLY CHILLY FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR... AS MIXING FROM 925MB YIELDS MID 40S TO LOWER 50S ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. IN ADDITION...EAST TO NORTHEAST WINDS WILL BE AVERAGING 15 TO 30 MPH ADDING A CHILL TO THE AIR. SUPERBLEND LOOKS TOO MILD AND WAS NOT FOLLOWED. USED ECMWF AND RAW MODEL VALUES ONCE AGAIN. LIGHT SHOWERS WILL LINGER SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY AS THE UPPER LOW WEAKENS AND MOVES EASTWARD. BUT AFTER THAT...THERE IS UPPER RIDGING THAT BEGINS TO INFLUENCE OUR WEATHER WHICH WILL DRY OUT THE FORECAST AREA BY MONDAY WITH MUCH WARMER TEMPERATURES. && .AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z THURSDAY MORNING) ISSUED AT 622 AM CDT WED APR 27 2016 IFR CONDITIONS WILL BE QUITE STUBBORN TODAY AS UPPER LEVEL LOW TO THE SOUTH DRIFTS SLIGHTLY NORTH. EASTERLY FLOW WILL PREVAIL THROUGH THE PERIOD ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE LOW. HEAVIEST RAINFALL IS EXPECTED OVER THE NEXT 6 HOURS OR SO AS BAND OF RAIN LIFTS NORTH THROUGH THE AREA. RAIN WILL BECOME MORE SCATTERED THIS AFTERNOON...BUT STILL LINGER THROUGH THE AFTERNOON INTO THE OVERNIGHT. && .FSD WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SD...NONE. MN...NONE. IA...NONE.
