Area Forecast Discussion For Western SD and Northeastern WY
National Weather Service Rapid City SD
542 PM MDT WED AUG 10 2016

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening Through Thursday Night)
Issued at 221 PM MDT Wed Aug 10 2016

Water vapor imagery shows an upper low straddling the
Montana/Canadian border with southwest flow continuing across the
nrn Plains. A series of weak waves are extending southwest into
WY/Great Basin. Surface analysis...and even KUDX radar...shows low
pressure centered across the Badlands along a stationary frontal
boundary. Temps have risen into the upper 90s across cntrl SD and
80s behind the front across ne WY/wrn SD. Models continue to show
strong instability across wrn SD and into the BH/ne WY with MLCape
reaching 2500-3500 J/kg. Radar shows convection initiating across ne
WY into the BH...and toward Fall River county...but are remaining
weak thus far. Storms will continue to develop across the area over
the next few hours...however the focus for convection this afternoon
and evening will be along the frontal boundary as it shifts eastward
into cntrl SD. With strong instability in place...some storms could
become severe before the line slides east of the CWA border late in
the evening...with large hail and strong winds as the main threats.
Cooler air will filter into the rest of the CWA tonight into Thu
morning. The upper low will slide eastward across srn Canada just
north of ND Thu morning. As the base of the trough approaches the
CWA...models are showing a series of stronger waves pushing through
which could bring elevated convection to the area...especially in
the Black Hills area late tonight into Thu morning...then continuing
through the afternoon/evening hours. At this time severe weather is
not a concern...though a few strong storms are possible closer to
SCntrl SD. Cooler temps are expected with highs in the upper 70s to
upper 80s.

.LONG TERM...(Friday Through Wednesday)
Issued at 221 PM MDT Wed Aug 10 2016

A slow-moving upper trough will continue to bring chances of
thunderstorms through Saturday. Temperatures will be slightly
cooler than average, in the 80s. Upper ridge building over the
western CONUS will then shift eastward over the forecast area
Sunday into Monday allowing for hotter and drier weather. There
will be small chances of precip towards midweek as the upper ridge
breaks down.
