Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Twin Cities/Chanhassen MN
259 PM CDT Mon Aug 5 2019

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday night)
Issued at 300 PM CDT Mon Aug 5 2019

First batch of severe storms moved across the Twin Cities, and
into west central Wisconsin since noon. Another area of storms
were developing along the main cold front from near Montevideo in
west central Minnesota, to St. Cloud, and near Rush City in east
central Minnesota. This line will affect most of southern
Minnesota, and into parts of west central Wisconsin through the
early evening. Severe storms will be possible as bulk wind shear
are between 35-45 kts and MLCAPEs are nearly 3000 J/kg. This was
the case as baseball size hail occurred in the western part of the
Twin Cities around 1 PM CDT. Once the storms move out of the
state, a refreshing air mass will spread across the Upper Midwest
for Tuesday. Another cold front will enter northwest Minnesota
Tuesday night, but it shouldn't affect central Minnesota until
well past midnight, and into Wednesday.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday)
Issued at 245 PM CDT Mon Aug 5 2019

Thunderstorms still look possible Wednesday afternoon/evening
as a cold front moves through the area, although some uncertainty
exists in just how widespread they may be as the best upper level
forcing remains off to the north and south. An environment favorable
for strong to severe storms will develop during the afternoon ahead
of this front, with around 2000 J/kg of SBCAPE and 30-40 kts of
effective bulk shear. There is still some disagreement among models
in timing the front as it moves through the area, which leads to
uncertainty on where the best potential for severe weather sets
up during the afternoon/evening. The slower solutions bring the
front through during the afternoon/evening which could result in
at least some potential for strong/severe storms area-wide, while
the faster solutions moving the front through during the
morning/afternoon and potentially keep the threat south into Iowa.
After the front moves through, drier weather is weather is
expected through the rest of the work week.

A more active pattern is expected to develop over the weekend and
into next week, as ridging/northwest flow aloft flattens into
faster zonal flow in response to a trough coming ashore in the
Pacific Northwest. Typical spread exists in the models at this
range, but expect at least a few chances at showers and
thunderstorms during this time period. Expect temperatures to be
seasonable into next week, with highs and lows within a few
degrees of climatological values.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 1230 PM CDT Mon Aug 5 2019

Earlier convection that was across central Minnesota has exited
west central Wisconsin. However, additional storms, locally severe
had developed west of the Twin Cities. The best chance of
widespread convection with TSRA/strong winds will occur from KRWF-
KMSP-KRNH and southward this afternoon. Hard to determine timing
so will continue with tempo periods until there is a better handle
on timing this afternoon. Any storm this afternoon will be
capable of producing very strong winds and hail. Between 21-00z,
conditions will slowly improve across central Minnesota, with the
bulk of the TSRA in south central Minnesota. Between 00-03z, most
of the activity will be south of MPX TAF sites, with a northwest
wind developing. BR/FG will be possible toward sunrise.

KMSP...

Current TSRA west of the cities will affect KMSP by 18z, and
likely continue for a half hour to an hour. Strong winds, and
hail are likely within 10 NM of the airport, but not necessary
affecting the terminal. Conditions should improve between 21-00z,
with most of the activity south of the airport after 00z.

/OUTLOOK FOR KMSP/

Wed...VFR. Chc -TSRA. W/SW wind 5-10 kts.
Thu...VFR. NW wind 5-10 kts.&&
