AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD
319 AM CST WED MAR 2 2016

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 317 AM CST WED MAR 2 2016

AREA OF STRATUS STARTING TO BUILD DOWN INTO SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA THIS
MORNING.  WHILE THE INCREASING SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL KEEP THE STRATUS
FROM BECOMING TOO WIDESPREAD TODAY...EXPECT THE TREND TO CONTINUE
ESPECIALLY ACROSS SOUTHWEST MINNESOTA TODAY.  THE INCREASINGLY DENSE
CLOUD COVER ACROSS THIS AREA WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES COOL ONCE
AGAIN...AND HAVE SIDED WITH COOLER SHORT TERM HIRES GUIDANCE FOR
TEMPERATURE TRENDS AND HIGHS.

POPS ARE A TOUGH CALL FOR  LATE THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT.  MODELS
HAVE SOMEWHAT COME INTO BETTER AGREEMENT...SUGGESTING THAT THE
LEADING WAVE WILL BE STRONGER THAN PREVIOUSLY ANTICIPATED.  THIS
WAVE LINKS UP WITH LOW LEVEL WARM AIR ADVECTION AHEAD OF THE WAVE
LEADING TO DEEPER SATURATION THAN IN OTHER AREAS OF THE FORECAST
AREA. HAVE RAISED POPS INTO THE LIKELY RANGE ACROSS SOUTHWEST
MINNESOTA INTO NORTHWEST IOWA ALONG AND EAST OF THE BUFFALO RIDGE
THROUGH THE EVENING AND EARLY MORNING HOURS ON THURSDAY.  ADDITIONAL
PIECES OF ENERGY ARE EXPECTED TO PASS FURTHER TO THE SOUTH ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA...BUT REALLY SUFFER FROM A LACK OF SATURATION.
STILL KEPT SOME SLIGHT CHANCE TO LOW CHANCE POPS WITH THESE
WAVES...BUT MAINLY FOCUSED ON THE LEADING WAVE ACROSS SOUTHWEST
MINNESOTA.  MAINLY EXPECT SNOW AMOUNTS TOTAL LESS THAN AN
INCH...THOUGH A FEW LOCATIONS MAY SEE SOME LOCAL ENHANCEMENT LEADING
TO AMOUNTS IN THE 1-2 INCH RANGE.  AM NOT EXPECTING COMPLICATING
FACTORS OF WIND...THOUGH ON THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF PRECIP BAND PRECIP
TYPE MAY BEGIN AS RAIN BEFORE QUICKLY CHANGING OVER TO SNOW.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 317 AM CST WED MAR 2 2016

OUTSIDE OF A COUPLE VERY MINOR DISTURBANCES...RELATIVELY QUIET
WEATHER ANTICIPATED THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEKEND AS SHIFT IN THE
SYNOPTIC PATTERN DEVELOPS.  BEHIND EXITING SHORT WAVE THURSDAY
MORNING...MAY SEE A FEW LINGERING FLURRIES OR SNOW SHOWERS ACROSS
PORTIONS OF SW MN...NW IA...AND FAR EASTERN SD THROUGH MID-DAY.
HOWEVER...MID-LVL HEIGHTS WILL BEGIN TO BUILD OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS
LATER IN THE DAY...WITH WARMER LOW-LVL AIR ADVECTING INTO THE PLAINS
BY FRIDAY.

SPEAKING OF FRIDAY...YET ANOTHER WEAK AND RATHER UNORGANIZED SYSTEM
WILL CREST THE BUDDING RIDGE AND SLIDE SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE REGION
DURING THE DAY.  ANTICIPATING A BIT OF LIGHT SNOW...TRANSITIONING TO
RAIN AS THE DAY WEARS ON AND WARMER AIR ARRIVES. LITTLE TO NO
ACCUMULATION ANTICIPATED AT THIS TIME.

A WARMUP BEGINS IN EARNEST DURING THIS UPCOMING WEEKEND...AS RIDGING
ALOFT BUILDS AND TROUGHING INCREASES OVER THE PACIFIC COASTLINE.
WHILE THE FLOW REMAINS SOMEWHAT PROGRESSIVE...MODELS ARE HINTING
THAT A FEW OF THESE INCOMING WAVES OUT IN THE CENTRAL PACIFIC WILL
TRY TO DIG INTO THE SOUTHWESTERN US EARLY NEXT WEEK.

ONE SUCH WAVE IS PROJECTED TO LIFT NORTHWARD OUT OF THE OKLAHOMA
PANHANDLE ON MONDAY. STRONG MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND PERSISTENT LOW-
LVL WARM ADVECTION WILL BOOST TEMPERATURES INTO THE 60S ON
SUNDAY...WITH A REASONABLE CHANCE FOR HIGH DEW POINTS AND DRIZZLE
SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY. THE SLIGHT NEGATIVE TILT TO THIS TROUGH
WILL ALSO ALLOW FOR A BIT OF ELEVATED INSTABILITY TO ADVECT
NORTHWARD INTO MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...BRINGING A REASONABLE RISK
FOR A FEW ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS EARLY NEXT WEEK. WARMER
TEMPERATURES LOOK TO STICK AROUND THROUGH NEXT WEEK AND SHOULD MAKE
THE LEAP DAY SNOWFALL A DISTANT MEMORY.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z WEDNESDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 530 PM CST TUE MAR 1 2016

CURRENTLY THERE IS SOME UPPER END STRATO CUMULUS JUST TO THE
NORTH OF KHON...JUST UNDERNEATH 3000 FEET AGL. WITH THICK CIRRUS
BEGINNING TO MASK THESE CLOUDS ON THE SATELLITE...IT IS DIFFICULT
TO ASCERTAIN WHETHER THESE CLOUDS WILL IMPACT KHON THIS EVENING OR
NOT. CERTAINLY THE VARIOUS HIRES MODELS DO NOT SUGGEST A LOT OF
MVFR AT KHON...BUT IT IS CLOSE ENOUGH THAT IT NEEDED TO BE
INCLUDED IN THE 00Z TAF. OTHERWISE VFR SHOULD PREVAIL FOR THE
NIGHT AND INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING. THE NAM SUGGEST SOME MVFR
CEILINGS DEVELOPING AT KFSD AND KHON WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. THIS WAS
FOLLOWED DUE TO A MOIST...SOUTHEAST FLOW OF AIR STREAMING INTO THE
REGION.
