Severe Thunderstorm Warning 28, NWS Aberdeen, SD

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Aberdeen SD
321 PM CDT Sun Jun 7 2020

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Monday Night)
Issued at 320 PM CDT Sun Jun 7 2020

Main concern in the near term is the potential for strong to severe
thunderstorms late this afternoon and this evening as a cold front
tracks across the area and encounter extreme instability. CAPE
values of 3000-5000 J/kg will be common late this afternoon into the
early evening hours. Bulk shear will increase into the 50 to 65 knot
range along and ahead of the front, along with a low level jet
increasing into the 50 to 70 knot range. This combination of factors
will result in thunderstorm development, which looks to initiate
around 22Z between the Missouri River and the James River Valley.
The biggest question right now is whether these storms will take
more of a northeast track as shown in the HRRR and the ARW, or if
they line out and more more easterly as shown by the high resolution
NAM and the NMM. There will be a bit of a stronger CAP over the
southeastern part of the CWA, so for now, will lean toward the more
northeasterly track solution and keep fairly low POPs across the
east. Where the storms do develop, conditions will be highly
favorable for them to go severe, with gusty winds and large hail the
most likely threats. An isolated tornado or two cannot be ruled out
due to the strong shear as well. May see some lingering showers
across the far northeastern part of the CWA into the overnight
hours.

The frontal boundary stalls out over the far eastern CWA on Monday,
but conditions during the day will be mainly dry with little else to
support precipitation. By Monday night however, an upper trough will
approach the region and will begin to meet up with the remnants of
Tropical Storm Cristobal, and the stalled front looks to then become
the focus for rainfall. The uncertain part now is just how far west
this precipitation will reach, with some models keeping it east of
the James River Valley, and others bringing it as far west as the
Leola Hills region. Rainfall amounts in excess of 1 to 1.5 inches
cannot be ruled out.

Low temperatures tonight will range from the upper 50s northwest to
the lower 70s east, with highs on Monday ranging from the mid 70s
northwest to the lower 90s east. Lows Monday night will be in the
50s.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday)
Issued at 320 PM CDT Sun Jun 7 2020

The period begins on Tuesday with the remnant tropical system surging
northwards into the Midwest. The storm system, along with a mid
level trough passing through the region will bring showers and
thunderstorms to the eastern half of the CWA. With a more stable
environment, severe weather is not expected on Tuesday.

Cooler, dry air will move into the region on Wednesday with boundary
layer dew points in the mid 40s. The combination of steep low level
lapse rates and some mid level moisture may result in isolated
showers, mainly in the eastern CWA. Buffer soundings support gusty
winds on Wednesday with a max gust of 30 to 35 knots. The rest of
the long term will feature dry conditions with temperatures below,
to near normal. Temperatures will be around normal on Saturday and
Sunday with highs in the upper 70s, to the low 80s.
