Area Forecast Discussion

329 PM CDT Mon Aug 27 2018

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 318 PM CDT Mon Aug 27 2018

Active weather continues this afternoon and evening as scattered
thunderstorms move in. In the near term, a cold front stretching
from Sioux City-Sioux Falls-Marshall will continue to bring
scattered showers and storms, while the main upper trough/vort max
at western Dakotas slides east-northeast. Ahead of this trough, a
mid-level shortwave continues sliding northeast across the area this
afternoon. This is the one providing forcing/dynamic for convection
across parts of the area. However, with an extent area of mostly
cloudy skies, moderate mid-level lapse rates, and convective
temperatures cooler than criteria, the severe weather threat seems
more likely across northwest Iowa and far eastern counties in
southwest Minnesota. These areas pose the greatest risk for
strong to severe thunderstorms through this evening with an area
of 1500-2000 J/kg MUCAPE, and surface dewpoints in the upper 60s
and lower 70s. Quasi-unidirectional 0-6 km shear about 40 to 45
knots suggests a few rotating storms, with multi-cells clusters as
the primary mode. Large hail up to golf ball size and damaging
winds to 75 mph are the main risks. Isolated hail up to 2.5 inch
will be possible through late this afternoon. Severe weather
risks will slowly diminish from 6pm to 8pm CDT, from west to east.

The aforementioned main upper trough/vort max will drag secondary
surface front tonight. Some elevated showers and isolated storms
are possible Tuesday morning into early afternoon from northwest
to southeast. As the frontal boundary slowly moves southeast,
tight pressure gradient will produce breezy conditions late
tonight into Tuesday. Have bumped winds by using CONSMOS to have
15 to 25 mph, gusts up to 30 mph through Tuesday afternoon. Low
clouds/stratus spreading southward and northerly surface winds
behind the front will keep the area cooler than average with
daytime temperatures from the upper 60s to lower 70s north of I-90
to mid 70s south.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
Issued at 318 PM CDT Mon Aug 27 2018

Relatively dry conditions and slightly cooler than normal
temperatures are expected Tuesday night into Wednesday as a surface
high pressure builds in.

By Wednesday night into Thursday night, upper flow pattern becomes
quasi-zonal, while at the surface return flow brings warmer and more
humid conditions across the region. With diurnal heating and
moderate theta-e, some spotty storms cannot be ruled out.

Unsettled conditions return Friday into Friday night as an upper
trough slides eastward, lifting the associated warm front across the
region. Will need to monitor this period for possible scattered
strong to severe storms mainly along and east of I-29.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 1230 PM CDT Mon Aug 27 2018

Scattered thunderstorms have started to move across the forecast
area along of the surface cold front extending from southwest
Minnesota to northeast Nebraska. MVFR to occasional low-end IFR
conditions are expected this afternoon at all terminals as
thunderstorms move through. Gusty winds up to 25 knots are
expected across KSUX through sunset. Behind the main front/upper
disturbance, low clouds/stratus will spread south across the
region Tuesday by around daybreak. Northerly winds from 20 to 25
knots are possible, along with some showers activity through early
afternoon.
