MGWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Sioux Falls, SD wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Apr 24, 6:38 AM CDT, 2 hours 24 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 24, 6:38 AM CDT, 2 hours 24 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD 638 AM CDT Tue Apr 24 2018 .SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight) Issued at 402 AM CDT Tue Apr 24 2018 Compact wave dropping south through western South Dakota will bring showers to mainly western parts of the forecast area into tonight. Leading line of showers appears to be fighting dry air intrusion thanks to the southeasterly low level flow, but expect this will gradually be overcome by the increasing lift through the morning, so likely-categorical pops still look reasonable for our far western areas today. HRRR is trending farther east with development across our southern areas as the wave drops into Nebraska this afternoon, but this not presently supported by other hi-res models, so will stick with just chance or lower pops for all areas along/east of I-29 for now. Rain will end north to south tonight as the wave continues to drift slowly southward, followed by clearing skies. Temperatures today will be somewhat non-diurnal, especially in southern areas which should see midday highs followed by cooling as rain expands and cold advection takes over. Northern areas more likely to see typical late day highs as rain begins to diminish through the afternoon. Tonight temperatures will fall into the 30s most areas, with sub-freezing lows for some areas near/north of I-90. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday) Issued at 402 AM CDT Tue Apr 24 2018 Temperatures will be the focus for the mid-long range portion of the forecast, with trends continuing to point toward a stretch of warmer weather as we close out this month. Given proven ability to warm nicely the past couple of days, and continued cooling influence of bias-corrected grids, have nudged highs up a bit most days, but the most dramatic shift from our consensus blend comes Sunday/Monday. Surface ridge drops south across the area Wednesday, which will bring light winds and plenty of sunshine. Expect temperatures to be close to normal, with highs in the upper 50s-mid 60s. A weaker and faster wave slides across the region Thursday, accompanied by a weak cool front. Current timing of the front places it across northwest Iowa during peak heating, and could see some spotty showers develop there in the afternoon. NAM and GFS hint at some weak instability ahead of the 850mb boundary late Thursday afternoon, so cannot rule out an isolated clap of thunder, but not confident enough in timing of the boundary to introduce mention at this time. Friday/Saturday should be quiet with the start of the warming trend as the upper ridge builds into the Plains. Early next week, upper ridge begins to shift east, as a trough develops across the Rockies. Increasing southerly flow ahead of the trough will support good warming Sunday/Monday, as thermal ridge is pumped northward into the Upper Midwest. Some difference in strength of the Rockies trough, and thus with timing of when it swings out into the Plains, but all models indicate the associated cool front will remain west of our forecast area through at least Monday. Given low level temperatures, highs in the 70s seem a good bet, and may even be on the cool side in some areas, especially on Monday. With the stronger south winds and warm temperatures, will have to watch humidity levels Sunday/Monday. Models currently pointing to afternoon dew points in the 40s-lower 50s spreading northward into the area, but with the late start to the growing season and good mixing, may see these values mix lower in the afternoon. Already seeing the fire danger hit Very High in many areas based on the winds and MinRH of 35-45 percent, so warmer temperatures and/or lower dew points could push the fire danger higher. Aforementioned differences in the handling of western trough lead to significant differences in the models by next Tuesday, so no changes to the forecast there at this point. If faster EC verifies, highs in the upper 50s/60s are reasonable, but if the slower GFS pans out, Tuesday could be another warm day in the 70s/lower 80s. Too much uncertainty to select one over the other just yet. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Wednesday morning) Issued at 637 AM CDT Tue Apr 24 2018 Scattered to numerous showers will move across the forecast area today, ending from north to south during the late afternoon and evening. VFR conditions are expected to dominate, though areas of MVFR ceilings may expand as far east as the James River Valley and KHON through the day. && .FSD WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SD...None.
