Area forecast discussion, Jun 30, 6:51 AM CDT, 2 hours 21 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD
651 AM CDT Sat Jun 30 2018
.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 400 AM CDT Sat Jun 30 2018
Active weather day today with band of elevated storms lifting north
towards the forecast area. Storms have 1000-1500 J/kg of elevated
CAPE to work with. In general, expect storms to remain below severe
limits, but if storms are able to work east into northwest Iowa or
southwest Minnesota ahead of the stationary/cold front there is a
bit more instability there.
Short wave train across western Kansas this morning is expected to
work north and by late in the day interact with boundary across the
region. Model soundings suggest in excess of 3000 J/kg of CAPE by
mid-afternoon. Not a lot in the way of low level shear in the
atmosphere, but do have a fair amount of mid-level shear leading to
0-6 km bulk shear values around 40 knots. With boundaries around
the area, agree with heightened severe weather threat across the
area. With veering shear profiles and boundaries in the region from
prior convection, agree with SPC analysis that all severe weather
threats are possible late this afternoon into the evening hours. In
addition, precipitable water values are near 2 inches, and with deep
warm layer cloud depths, the potential exists for heavy rainfall
east of the front. With northwest Iowa remaining hydrologically
sensitive due to recent rainfall, elected to issue a flash flood
watch mainly along and east of highway 60. Time period of greatest
concern is from late this afternoon through the evening hours.
Thereafter, the front is expected to work east.
.LONG TERM...(Sunday through Friday)
Issued at 400 AM CDT Sat Jun 30 2018
More tranquil conditions are expected on Sunday though lingering low
level moisture may lead to an afternoon shower or isolated
thunderstorm east of I-29. Have not added this in the forecast with
surface ridge building into the region, but will have to keep an eye
on this.
Ridge builds across the eastern half of the US leading into the 4th
of July, while a trough digs into the western US. Forecast area
left in the middle, with warm and muggy conditions developing with
sporadic chances of thunderstorms. Ridge loosens its grip on the
area late in the week, potentially leading to near normal
temperatures headed into next weekend.

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Sunday morning)
Issued at 647 AM CDT Sat Jun 30 2018
Periodic rounds of showers and thunderstorms are expected today.
Convection will be most numerous east of I-29, but is very
difficult to time. Focused convection in the near term portion of
the forecast, and will need to refine timing further as the day
progresses. Cold front will work through the region late this
afternoon into this evening. Potential for very heavy rainfall
along and ahead of the front, which will reduce the visibility
periodically. Best chances for heavy rainfall after 21Z is across
northwest Iowa.
