Severe Thunderstorm Warning 53, NWS Glasgow, MT

Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service GLASGOW MT
848 PM MDT WED JUN 15 2016

.SHORT TERM...for northeast Montana...tonight through Fri...

Most of Northeast Montana has been highlighted for a slight risk
for severe thunderstorms this evening. So far, conditions remain
quiet. Satellite and radar imagery shows some convection beginning
west of BYZ, and moving northeast. The challenge therefore is
whether or not to pull out the severe wording of damaging winds
and large hail from this evening's forecast. Made a request to SPC
to reassess their highlight for our area. The latest GGW sounding
strongly suggests little convective potential. There is a cap at
400mb that does not show up on the model sounding. SPC expected
high based convection. So will go ahead and remove severe
conbvective wording.

Previous Discussion:
The forecast for the rest of today and tonight will remain similar
to the previous iteration. Main changes to the forecast include
some refinement to the PoP and QPF grids. Most of the severe
activity with the thunderstorms tonight should remain in the
southern areas, but at least slight chances for severe
thunderstorms will remain across the region. Bigelbach

Previous Discussion: Southwest flow aloft will continue in the
short term with an upper trough/low on the Pacific Coast and an
upper ridge to the east.

A cold front has moved to the south and east of the forecast area
early this morning taking the thunderstorms with it. Meanwhile, a
shortwave trough in southwest flow aloft was out of Eastern Idaho
and into South Central Montana at 08z. This wave will move through
Petroleum and Garfield Counties between 12z and 15z this morning
and Valley County in the late morning today. Expect some showers
and thunderstorms with this wave this morning which could linger
into the afternoon especially near the Canadian border.

Surface low will develop over Eastern Wyoming today with an
inverted surface trough developing along the MT/Dakota border
this afternoon. This inverted trough will act as a frontal
boundary. Surface based CAPE and instability will be limited both
today and tonight with cooler air mass over the area and frontal
boundary to the east. However, potential does exist for elevated
convection especially tonight as 40-50 knots southeast low level
jet in the Dakotas and Eastern Montana intersects a moist
shortwave trough moving through the forecast area. Could see some
severe thunderstorms mainly tonight with large hail being the main
threat although damaging winds will also be possible. Could also
see locally heavy rain mainly north of the Missouri River with
precipitable water around 1.25 inches.

The shortwave trough moves to the northeast Thursday morning and
the inverted surface trough moves to the east. Surface high
pressure moves into the area with mainly dry weather. West to
northwest winds on Thursday may become stronger enough in the
afternoon for a Lake Wind Advisory for Fort Peck Lake.

Models have a wave Thursday Night and Friday morning that could
bring enough moisture for a chance of showers and thunderstorms
for parts of Northeast Montana.

Another wave approaches the area from the southwest Friday
afternoon which could bring another chance for showers and
thunderstorms. Forrester

.LONG TERM...Fri night through Wed...
The only real change to the long term forecast was to ramp up
pops for Saturday and Saturday evening with better 12z model
consensus surrounding timing and track of shortwave. Ahead of this
wave, temperatures will rise into the 80s and surface dew points
will be in the high 50s and low 60s. A warm and moist environment
will allow the potential for thunderstorms, some potentially
severe. High forecast sounding precipitable water values also mean
that any storms may come along with locally heavy rainfall.
Otherwise, inherited forecast is on track for now. Maliawco

Previous long term discussion...

The extended period begins Friday evening with Northeast Montana
under a southwest flow aloft. To the south will be a large high
pressure area. To the north in Canada a low pressure trough will
slowly move east across southern Canada during the period. The
movement of the trough east will slowly veer winds aloft to the
northwest by early next week. Since the area will remain on the
boundary between the two air masses, expect overrunning moisture
to bring about a chance for showers through the weekend and into
early next week when a ridge moves over the Northern Rockies. This
will bring drier and warmer conditions.

friday night through saturday night: 700mb temperatures range from
1C degree in the nw corner of the CWA to 12C in the se corner,
while the northeast and southwest corners will come in around 5C.
There will be a clear temperature boundary between the competing
air masses. The trough churning off the Northwest Coast will be
sending moisture in the sw flow across this frontal boundary,
produce a chance for rain showers and thunderstorms. The best QPF
will be Saturday night for GFS and Saturday for the EC. So will do
a blend of pops and QPF.

Sunday through Tuesday: the picture becomes more murky, but both
the GFS and EC show the Canadian trough winning by pushing the
boundary south of Nemont. This will bring widespread cooler
temperatures but mostly dry conditions.

.AVIATION...
VFR conditions will prevail this evening, however, MVFR CIGS are
possible with remaining showers and any thunderstorms as they
track across the CWA. Winds will be northeast at 10 to 15 kts,
though may be gusty and erratic near any storms. Proton
