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 16, 4:11 PM CDT, 22 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 16, 4:11 PM CDT, 22 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD 411 PM CDT Tue Apr 16 2019 .SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Wednesday) Issued at 410 PM CDT Tue Apr 16 2019 Primary concern the next 24 h is the thunderstorm chances. All models agree on the overall set up later tonight. Strong warm air and moisture advection around 1 km AGL will result in an increasingly unstable atmosphere - especially along and east of I-29. An weak upper wave will move north later tonight in an area where 1 km moisture convergence will be greatest. HRRR, RAP, NAM and GFS model soundings all show that initially there is a fairly strong cap around 700 mb but this cap is gradually eroded after 06Z as the unstable layer and area of convergence move northward. The model differences and largest uncertainty is where and when convection will develop later tonight as well as how widespread convection will be. One consistent message is that around 06Z near KSUX there is ~1000 J/kg MUCAPE but CIN of 50-100. At KFSD around 11Z there is similar MUCAPE but < 10 J/kg CIN. While we cannot rule out convection at KSUX the most likely area for development is in the vicinity of I-90 from far eastern SD into southern Minnesota. Bulk shear is only 20-25 kts so expect elevated multicellular convection. However, the initial updrafts may be strong enough to support up to dime size hail late tonight. As more updrafts develop north of I-90, the instability will decrease and storms should produce primarily rain Wednesday morning as they move north toward Highway 14. Expect additional development of showers on the southern side of the precipitation shield. This will keep rain over much of southwestern Minnesota and portions of east central South Dakota much of the morning and this is where we have categorical PoPs. The region from Sioux Falls to Spencer Iowa seems to be where new showers will be developing at least through midmorning before shifting north. Farther south toward YKN and SUX, while showers cannot be ruled out with continued instability, a capping inversion is likely to result in little precipitation in the morning. On Wednesday afternoon, the surface low will move eastward from the Missouri River into north central Iowa. It will remain unstable ahead of the cold front. The southern jet streak will move northward in the afternoon with enhanced divergence aloft in the exit region. This is expected to result in convection developing by early afternoon along the boundary. The GFS, ECMWF, RAP and HRRR have pushed this front east more rapidly with the initial cells developing near Highway 71 or even farther east. Did extend likely PoPs along Hwy 71 during the early afternoon for this convection with only chance PoPs around KSUX and KFSD. Convection will be east of the area by late afternoon and the persistent rain is expected to be north and east of the area by evening. West of I-29, the chances of precipitation are less. There is less instability and weaker advection. The northern stream jet streak is expected to move northeast into North Dakota. This leaves little forcing for ascent in south central South Dakota and there is likely to be little or no rain. North of I-90, around KHON and KMDS, there will be better forcing for ascent but instability is still very limited. So while rain is more likely - especially in the morning - it will be fairly light. The highest QPF, up to 0.75", is expected in southwestern Minnesota where there is expected to be a few thunderstorms and more persistent rainfall. Rainfall decreases going going farther west and south into South Dakota and Iowa. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday Night through Tuesday) Issued at 410 PM CDT Tue Apr 16 2019 The primary concern in the long term is the low chance for rain Thursday and then warm up for Saturday. Any precipitation is expected to end by late evening on Wednesday. Another jet streak and associated wave will move south out of Canada Thursday. With cool air aloft, a few afternoon and evening showers are possible west of I-29. These showers should quickly dissipate after sunset. Then a ridge will build across the area for Thursday and Friday. Friday looks to be a near or just above normal - in the 60s to around 70. Saturday looks to be the warmest day of the year so far. A thermal ridge will develop just ahead of a cold front which will move through during the afternoon and evening. With 925 mb temperature around +20C, this would mix well into the 70s. In fact with brown vegetation and enhanced mixing near the front, fairly deep mixing is possible with a few places approaching or even exceeding 80 degrees. After the cold front goes through normal April weather will return with highs in the 50s and 60s. There will also be a small chance for rain on Sunday. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday afternoon) Issued at 1256 PM CDT Tue Apr 16 2019 Primary aviation concern is IFR conditions developing later tonight and Wednesday as an upper wave approaches. All models now showing the atmosphere becoming increasingly unstable overnight as moisture increases above the surface. Elevated convection may develop as early as 06Z around KSUX and is likely to develop by 10Z between KFSD and KSUX. Convection will increases in coverage as it move northward into Wednesday morning. Expect that additional showers will develop through the morning on the south side of the area of rain mostly likely north of KSUX but may impact KFSD. The rain will extend west to KHON by 12Z but the probability of thunder is much lower and not included in the TAF. In terms of clouds and visibility, as the moisture moves north, cloud bases will lower to MVFR after 05Z and to IFR by 12Z. Visibilities are likely to become MVFR by 12Z Wednesday. There could be IFR visibility especially where rain is falling but confidence is lower so kept the visibility between 3 and 5SM after 12Z. && .FSD WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SD...NONE. MN...NONE.
