Flash Flood Warning 1, NWS Duluth, MN

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Duluth MN
311 PM CDT Sun Jun 11 2017

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday)
Issued at 311 PM CDT Sun Jun 11 2017

An elevated warm front was located over the southern third of the
forecast area at 1930Z. Showers and thunderstorms continue to
form along the front, which also coincides with leftover outflow
boundaries from earlier convection. These storms will percolate
through this area through this evening with highest pops in
northwest Wisconsin. Some of the storms may be on the strong side
with heavy rain possible. Elsewhere, high pressure was in play.
Another line of showers and storms was forming in northwest
Minnesota and will move through the International Falls area
through early this evening before ending. The showers and storms
will end from west to east over northwest Wisconsin later tonight
with the high pressure in charge. Even with the light wind
expected tonight, short term hires models are downplaying the fog
potential. Will leave out for now.

A stronger area of high pressure over Manitoba will affect the
region on Monday.

.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 311 PM CDT Sun Jun 11 2017

A warm front will continue to be the focus for showers and
thunderstorms early in the period. On Monday night, the warm front
will start to lift northward across Minnesota and Wisconsin,
generating thunderstorms first in the south, and then spreading
northward during the night. Surface low pressure will then lift into
western Minnesota on Tuesday, as a massive upper level trough
dominates the west. A strong jet streak rounding the base of the
trough by Tuesday night will set the stage for strong to possibly
severe thunderstorms as a cold front west of the CWA starts to move
eastward. We could see some locally heavy rainfall, along with some
large hail and damaging winds on Tuesday night. The showers and
storms will continue into Wednesday as the cold front meanders
slowly across the western Great Lakes. Things should generally quiet
down for the rest of the long term period, as we will be in a bit
more stable westerly flow. Still we could see some periodic
diurnally driven showers and thunderstorms. High temperatures
throughout the week should generally range from the 70s to lower
80s. Lows will be in the 50s and 60s.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon)
Issued at 1240 PM CDT Sun Jun 11 2017

Showers and storms will be in the vicinity of BRD and HYR early in
the forecast. Mainly VFR ceilings are expected, with MVFR vsbys
near the storms. DLH may also be affected, but confidence is
lower. Regardless, have a VCTS at DLH starting at 21Z. Elsewhere,
VFR is expected.
