.SHORT TERM...(Today through Saturday Afternoon)
Issued at 405 AM CDT Thu Apr 12 2018
Low clouds and patchy dense fog will impact the region this morning
as winds remain fairly light. These conditions may continue into the
early afternoon hours before lifting.
Warm air advection will push northward across the region today, with
light pcpn possible. Little to no QPF is expected. There should be a
period of dry conditions this afternoon through this evening before
our next storm system impacts the region. This strong storm system
could bring a wide range of weather including thunderstorms, heavy
snow, and whiteout conditions from falling and blowing snow.
CAMS, along with support from SPC's day one outlook suggest
thunderstorms are possible late tonight through Friday morning,
mainly for locations along and south of highway 14. How much of
the QPF associated with the convection falls as snow is a little
unclear at this time. As the surface low reaches eastern Nebraska
early Friday morning, our western zone should see moderate to
heavy snow developing. Snowfall amounts along the Missouri Valley
will likely vary significantly from 3-5 inches along the ND/SD
border to over a foot along I-90. With strong northerly winds
exceeding 35 mph, whiteout conditions are likely Friday morning.
Held off on upgrading to a blizzard warning mainly because of the
potential for thunderstorms/thundersnow tonight.
Eastern SD and western MN will have their best potential of seeing
moderate to heavy snow Friday afternoon through Saturday afternoon.
Snowfall amounts along I-29 could also vary greatly with lesser
amounts near the ND/SD border. Location of the deformation band
will play a key factor in snowfall amounts for the Watertown area.
Snowfall confidence is lowest in our far northeastern CWA. This
system should gradually pull away from the CWA on Saturday with
pcpn ending from NW to SE.
.LONG TERM...(Saturday Evening through Wednesday)
Issued at 405 AM CDT Thu Apr 12 2018
Saturday night through Monday night should be a mostly dry weather
period. There is the potential for an area of low pressure to lift
out of the Rockies and generate some precipitation across the area
by Tuesday afternoon into Tuesday night. Right now, nothing major.
Just some light precipitation potential. Could be all plain rain or
could be some rain changing/mixing with snow at the very end of the
possible precip event. Then, it looks like things turn back to being
a dry forecast again through the end of the Day 7 period.
Looks very below normal cold Saturday night across the region. Still
monitoring that potential for some more record temperatures to be
tied/broken. The below normal cold looks to stay on Sunday as well.
Fresh new widespread deep snowpack over the region, even in April,
will likely take more than one day to melt off. Then, low level waa
starts to ramp up for Tuesday and Wednesday, but while warmth is
being given over to melting snow, temperatures probably won't be
"near climo normal" on Tuesday and maybe not even Wednesday.

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Friday Morning)
Issued at 625 AM CDT Thu Apr 12 2018
IFR conditions should continue through the morning hours for the
terminals of KATY and KABR. Prevailing VFR conditions are expected
for KMBG and KPIR through this evening. All terminals will see
flying conditions deteriorate late tonight through Friday as a
storm system impacts the region. This system will bring strong
northerly winds along with heavy snow.
