Flood Statement
National Weather Service Bismarck ND
334 PM CST Mon Mar 2 2020

...The Flood Warning continues for the Missouri River near 
Williston, affecting Williams and McKenzie Counties of North Dakota.

.Warm temperatures will continue to clean snowpack off the 
countryside and increase river flows. Much of the cause behind this 
event can be attributed to the ice covering the river. As the river 
rises, the risk of the ice becoming mobile increases as will the 
risk of an icejam. If an icejam were to occur, water levels can 
quickly rise and fall several feet within a few hours.  .

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Motorists should not attempt to drive around barricades or drive on 
flooded roads.

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood 
deaths occur in vehicles.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the 
dangers of flooding.

1003 AM CDT Mon Mar 9 2020

...The Flood Warning continues for the following rivers in North 
Dakota...

  Missouri River near Williston affecting Williams and McKenzie 
  Counties.

.Warm temperatures will continue to melt snowpack off the countryside
and increase river flows. Much of the cause behind this event can be 
attributed to ice covering the river. As the river rises, the risk 
of ice becoming mobile increases, as will the risk of an ice jam. If 
an ice jam does occur, water levels could quickly rise and fall 
several feet within a few hours.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Motorists should not attempt to drive around barricades or drive on 
flooded roads.

Turn around, don't drown when encountering flooded roads. Most flood 
deaths occur in vehicles.

Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize the 
dangers of flooding.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Bismarck ND
911 AM CST Mon Mar 2 2020

.UPDATE...
Issued at 909 AM CST Mon Mar 2 2020

The leading edge of the warm advection clouds and light
precipitation moving into northwest North Dakota at this time. As
the trough passes this afternoon winds will pick up, At this time
we anticipate the winds will remain below advisory criteria.
Current forecast looks ok so far.

UPDATE Issued at 559 AM CST Mon Mar 2 2020

For this update, just tweaked sky cover grids based on the latest
satellite observations and trends. Otherwise, the forecast looks
to be in good shape. Granted the RAP and HRRR appear to be outlier
solutions for this afternoon, if they were to verify, steep low
level lapse rates and weak 0-1 km mixed layer MUCAPE ranging from
100 to 300 J/kg could lead to some charge separation and a
lighting strike or two within any stronger convective showers
that do develop. It is not the most likely solution, but cannot be
completely discounted.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
Issued at 325 AM CST Mon Mar 2 2020

A quick moving shortwave embedded within northwest flow will move
into northwestern North Dakota early this afternoon. Ahead of this
wave, a warm front will move from west to east across the state,
leading to warmer temperatures this afternoon with highs in the
upper 30s east to the mid 40s across portions of the west.

Behind the warm front, winds will shift from the southwest to the
west northwest, becoming breezy. Soundings across the west show
inverted V profiles with widespread steep low level lapse rates in
place. RAP soundings paint a picture of the most extreme solution
with 40 to 50 knot winds mixing down to the surface across the
west. However, NAM and GFS soundings are forecasting winds more in
the 20 to 30 knot range. At this time, will trend towards
discounting the RAP solution as it appears to be a clear outlier.
Will hold off issuing any wind headlines for now, but winds may
approach advisory criteria for a few hours this afternoon and will
communicate the potential in the Hazardous Weather Outlook.

Regarding precipitation chances: cyclonic flow aloft, the steep
low level lapse rates, and some weak surface based CAPE will lead
to some isolated/scattered convective rain and/or snow showers
across the area through the afternoon. Winds may be locally
enhanced underneath any of these showers given the inverted V
profiles that are forecast.

Showers will diminish to the east southeast through the evening,
giving way to clearing skies overnight. Expect lows in the 20s to
lower 30s.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday)
Issued at 325 AM CST Mon Mar 2 2020

On Tuesday, a strong 300 mb jet sets up across Montana into
southwest North Dakota. This synoptic pattern should support some
light precipitation across portions of western and central North
Dakota, as we will be under the influence of the left exit region
of the jet. This precipitation will end up mainly light rain,
possibly mixed with a few snowflakes across the north and east.

A stronger shortwave trough moves in Wednesday, bringing more
chances of light rain or snow, mainly across the north. An
associated cold front sweeps through Wednesday night and Thursday,
potentially bringing another shot of strong winds to the area on
Thursday. Otherwise the remainder of the extended looks mild for
Friday and Saturday, then a chance for rain and snow again Sunday.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Tuesday morning)
Issued at 559 AM CST Mon Mar 2 2020

VFR conditions are expected through the period. A frontal
boundary will move across the state, bringing another round of
breezy winds this afternoon, generally out of the west. Ahead of
the front, some enhanced low level wind shear will be likely
across the west and north central. Behind the front, some isolated
to scattered convective rain or snow showers will likely develop,
mainly across the northern half of the state. Given the isolated
nature and uncertainty regarding exact placement of this activity,
decided to keep mention of any showers out of the TAF forecast at
this time.
