Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD
307 PM CDT Thu Sep 20 2018

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
Issued at 304 PM CDT Thu Sep 20 2018

The weather pattern continues unsettled and challenging. The threat
of  excessive rainfall has started to diminish across the CWA.
However, after a prolonged period of heavy rainfall and excessive
runoff, flooding of creeks and streams will continue over the next
days. Moderate to major flooding is expected for most rivers across
the CWA. Refer to water.weather/gov for additional information
regarding river flooding.

Attention now turns to showers and thunderstorms quickly developing
along the cold front across southeast SD. The 19Z satellite imagery
shows some clearing across northwest Iowa, allowing temperatures to
reach the upper 80s. Diurnal heating, along with a deepening surface
low pressure moving northeastward from central Nebraska, will
provide a focus for severe thunderstorms mainly from far
southeastern SD into MN. Strong Div/lifting mechanism already in the
environment, afternoon MUCAPEs in the 1500-2500 J/kg and strong 0-
6km bulk shear of 45-55 kts will maintain and even intensify any
convection over the next few hours. Soundings suggest an
unidirectional vertical wind shear this afternoon. The main concern
is the transition to multicellular thunderstorms increasing the
potential for mesovortices and the development of new cells as the
warm front moves northward, creating surface-based thunderstorms
along the boundary. Given a strong effective shear and 0- 3 km
shear over 30 knots and low LCL, damaging winds up to 70 mph and
landspout/tornadoes will be the main risks, with isolated hail
possible during the first stage of the storms. The severe weather
threat will be along and east of a line from Ponca, NE to Rock
Valley, IA to Marshall, SD by mid-late afternoon. Nevertheless,
areas along and east of Highway 71 in MN and IA, could see the
greatest threat for possible landspouts. The severe weather threat
will be ending by 02Z Friday.

Pressure gradient remains strong tonight into Friday morning, with
breezy wind speeds of 15-25 mph. Skies will continue to clear from
west to east, while northeast flows settles in. Cannot rule out some
spotty showers north of I-90 by daybreak, as the upper jet exits the
area. A cool night is on tap with lows from the mid 40s to lower
50s.

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday)
Issued at 304 PM CDT Thu Sep 20 2018

After a long wet period, a lull in precipitation is expected for the
first period of the extended, followed by cooler temperatures.

Behind the front, cooler and drier air moves across the region as a
surface high pressure builds in from the northeast. The main impact
will be cooler than normal temperatures given northwesterly flow. In
fact, Friday is shaping up to be the coolest day since last May with
highs only reaching the mid 50s and lower 60s.

As the surface high slides eastward, southerly flow and warmer air
return on Saturday and continue through Monday. Temperatures will
still remain cooler than average over the weekend, but warmer and
more comfortable than Friday with daytime highs from the upper 60s
and 70s.

A taste of fall is expected for next week with cooler than normal
temperatures prevailing for most of the week. Highs are expected to
reach the 60s and 70s. In terms of precipitation, the next chance
will be on Monday as a cold front moves through. A strong low
pressure system will be moving across the Northern
Rockies/International Border by the end of the period, bringing
another chance for showers and storms by Wed-Fri.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday afternoon)
Issued at 1232 PM CDT Thu Sep 20 2018

Complicated aviation set up with low pressure pivoting through the
region. Low lying MVFR to IFR stratus is expected mainly along and
north of I-90. South of this, skies should try to clear through
the afternoon hours. Thunderstorms are possible after 20Z across
northwest Iowa, possibly into southwest Minnesota mainly east of
highway 60. Northwest winds will spread east behind this line of
storms, drawing mvfr stratus south across much of the region
overnight. Breezy conditions are expected through the overnight
into the morning hours on Friday. Conditions will gradually
improve through the afternoon hours Friday.
