.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Tuesday Afternoon)
Issued at 344 PM CDT Mon May 7 2018

Two main rounds of thunderstorms will be possible through Tuesday
afternoon, both in response to an incoming shortwave which is
currently positioned across southern Montana. The first round may
develop this evening across western South Dakota by 23z and head
east through the overnight. Several CAMs are picking up on this
idea, as a combination of 1000+ J/kg of CAPE, steep low level lapse
rates and around 20 knots of deep layer shear provide a favorable
environment. By sunset, a multicell cluster of storms may be
underway across central SD. MLCAPE will have taken a nosedive, but
this cluster may be sustained due to a strengthening LLJ of 45+
knots across central/northeastern SD. A few storms may reach severe
limits at times across portions of western and even central South
Dakota, but generic to strong thunderstorms will be most likely
across the majority of the CWA with gusty winds and some small hail
being the main threats. The second main round of thunderstorms are
expected to develop near and southeast of the surface low Tuesday
afternoon/evening once the atmosphere has a chance to destabilize.
Dewpoints into the 50s, CAPE in the 1000-2000 J/kg range, and low-
level shear may once again provide a marginal environment for a few
strong to severe thunderstorms. The area of greatest concern will be
focused along a surface trough extending from the low, in central
South Dakota, southeastward into southeastern South Dakota.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday Evening through Monday)
Issued at 344 PM CDT Mon May 7 2018

When the period opens, a low pressure system is departing the
region, resulting in decreasing precipitation chances Tuesday night
into Wednesday. Dry conditions should be in place for most of
Wednesday through Thursday before the next low pressure system moves
in, bringing more precipitation chances mainly anchored on Thursday
night into Friday. Beyond that, forecast confidence really dwindles
with an upper level rex-block pattern of sorts developing. Models
tend to mishandle system track/timing in blocky patterns. At the
moment, not all that confident that this forecast areas sees much in
the way of precipitation chances beyond Friday.

The 12Z deterministic GSM models continue to trend cooler with low
level thermal advection progs beyond Wednesday. Temperatures could
be running near to a few degrees below climo normal during the
second half of the week into the weekend. Still not seeing a lot of
support for that scenario in the NAEFS Ensemble S.A. table. 850hpa
standardized anomaly output suggests temperatures could still be one
or more standard deviations above normal beyond Wednesday.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday Afternoon)
Issued at 1241 PM CDT Mon May 7 2018

VFR conditions are expected through the period until Tuesday
morning/afternoon when they'll be replaced by MVFR conditions due
to an incoming area of low pressure. Winds will be on the
decrease this evening and should stay generally near or below 12
knots sustained through the rest of the period overall. An area of
showers and thunderstorms will work across the area tonight into
Tuesday morning as well, and may lead to locally higher winds as
they pass.
