Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD
612 PM CDT Mon Jun 18 2018

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 415 PM CDT Mon Jun 18 2018

In the storm term, the concern is the threat for severe weather in
northwestern Iowa this evening and then heavy rain overnight.

First the severe weather. Based upon satellite an obs, the warm
front appears to extend from far southern Woodbury county into
southern Ida County. Just north of the front, temperatures are in
the low to mid 80s and dew points are in the low to mid 70s.
Although lapse rates are around 6.5 to 7 C/km, the extreme heat
and humidity still produces MLCAPEs over 2000 J/kg. Temperatures
cool north of Hwy 3 in Iowa and MLCAPEs quickly fall below 1000
J/kg. At the same time, 0-6 km bulk shears ranges from around 30
kts near Hwy 20 to 40 kts in southeastern SD. The shear is enough
to produce some storm organization - most likely multicells with
supercells less likely. On the surface boundary, a local
enhancement of the storm relative helicity could produce some
short-lived supercells. So the primary threat will be wind gusts
to 60 mph with hail to ping pong size. If a supercell or two are
able to form then could see hail up to golf ball size as well as a
threat of a tornado near the boundary. The severe threat will
gradually end toward sunset as the surface front is forced
southward as the upper wave moves to the east.

Then the focus is on how convection evolves through the night.
Certainly convection currently in western SD will continue to
move east this evening and move into the James Valley by sunset.
This is associated with a wave moving out of Nebraska. As the
night progresses, more convection is expected to develop between
the 850 mb and 925 mb front around or after midnight. With this
evening's convection in Iowa and Nebraska, models are hinting that
the 850 mb front will be forced farther southward closer to
Highway 18. So the convection from western SD will continue to
move eastward through the night until the new convection develops
over northwestern Iowa. At this time, expecting this convection to
develop around 06Z although the latest HRRR is a couple of hours
later. Once the new convection develops, the "old" convection to
the north will slowly begin to diminish. Expecting some rain will
make it into far western Minnesota but it is much more
questionable if it will survive to Marshall and Windom. Meanwhile,
convection will become more numerous somewhere between Hwy 18 and
Hwy 20 in northwestern Iowa. Corfidi vectors are less than 10 kts
late tonight in northwestern Iowa and that indicates that there
could be training echoes which would bring a flash flood threat.
Considered a flash flood watch for northwestern Iowa for later
tonight but with uncertainty as to where the storms will develop
due to impact of this evening's storms, have held off and let
evening shift re-examine the threat in a few hours.

Convection is expected to move east of Hwy 71 during the morning.
Then expecting a lull in the convection much of the late morning
into the afternoon. As the next wave moves into the high plains in
the afternoon may see new development in the vicinity of the
Missouri River into northwestern Iowa. It will remain humid over
the area with dew points in the 60s to lower 70s but cloud cover
will keep temperatures in the 70s.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
Issued at 415 PM CDT Mon Jun 18 2018

For the extended period, the primary concern is heavy rain from
late Tuesday night through Thursday morning.

With a long wave trough over the area, another wave will move from
Colorado into Nebraska by Tuesday evening. Cyclogenesis is
expected over eastern Colorado with a warm front across southern
Nebraska. The NAM and GFS both show convection developing well
north of the surface front along the Nebraska and South Dakota
border while the ECMWF and Canadian favor new developing from the
Black Hills and western Nebraska into south central Nebraska. With
the position of the surface boundary and location of this lead
wave, have favored a ECMWF and Canadian solution with most of
precipitation initially west and south of the area. As the main
wave slowly move east-southeast into western Nebraska and western
South Dakota, convection will spread northeast into the Missouri
through the night. That will begin a long period of rain with
embedded thunderstorms. All models agree that there will be 20 to
30 kt southeasterly flow at 850 mb bringing deep moisture into the
Missouri Valley. PWs are expected to be from 1.75 to 2 inches
through Thursday morning across the Missouri Valley. In addition,
MUCAPEs of 500-1000 J/kg will be present. Finally, a strong warm
front will be in place and able to interact with the upper low
that will take 24 to 36 h to move across Nebraska. This is a set
up for widespread heavy rainfall through the period. The current
forecast has 3 to 4" of rain in the Missouri Valley from Tuesday
night through Thursday. Most of this rain falls after 12Z
Wednesday. While one cannot rule out flash flooding, the rainfall
rates may not support widespread flash flooding given limited
instability. However, 3-4" of rain could have an impact on larger
rivers such as the Little Sioux, Maple, Vermillion and Big Sioux.
Fortunately, the heaviest rain is closer to the Missouri River
where the rivers can handle a bit more water than farther
upstream toward I-90. Given the event is 2 days have decided not
to issue an ESF for river flooding at this time to see if models
continue to show this much rainfall. Those living near larger
rivers over southeastern South Dakota and northwestern Iowa will
need to be aware of the latest river forecasts through the week.

With the ample clouds and rainfall, there will be a small diurnal
range with highs in the 70s and lows in the 60s. It could also be
breezy on Wednesday as the pressure gradient tightens north of the
surface cyclone moving across Nebraska.

Due to the rainfall threat, no significant changes made to the
forecast for the weekend and beyond. As skies clear, temperatures
will slowly warm back into the 80s by Sunday and Monday. The
unsettled weather will also continue with chances of rain through
Monday although widespread heavy rain is not anticipated at this
time.
