Area forecast discussion, Oct 30, 1:13 PM MDT, 0 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Bismarck ND 213 PM CDT Fri Oct 30 2020 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday) Issued at 140 PM CDT Fri Oct 30 2020 Two strong cold fronts and associated gusty winds are the highlight of the short-term. Ahead of an approaching low pressure system strong warm air advection will kick in. Breezy southerly winds will keep temperatures from falling too far tonight with readings generally in the 30s. The first cold front will sweep through around midnight tonight. This will shift winds out of the west, but only increase them marginally. The stronger cold front (and main pressure rises) will arrive Saturday morning. Although a few cold advection showers can not be ruled out near the Canadian border, it is likely most areas will stay dry Saturday. A downsloping wind component, strong Cold air advection behind the cold front, isallobaric forcing and afternoon mixing all have the potential to come together and produce sustained winds around 35 mph and gusts to 55. There are some indications that winds could be even stronger, however, there are some factors that could limit the higher end potential of this event. Thus, a Wind Advisory has been issued as confidence is high in widespread Wind Advisory level winds, but not great enough for the higher end potential to warrant a High Wind Warning at this time. Timing, mixing and cloud cover are factors that could limit the higher end potential of winds. With the surface low tracking to our north, the strongest pressure rises will be noticed across northern North Dakota, however,cloud cover could limit mixing. Additionally, the 12 UTC guidance suite has the cold front and pressure rises moving through a bit earlier than previous runs. This could also limit the highest potential as the strongest cold air advection could be east of the area by the time peak heating/mixing kicks in. With that said...if these factors don't contribute then wind gusts over 60 mph will be possible. .LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Friday) Issued at 140 PM CDT Fri Oct 30 2020 A dry, warming trend highlights the long term. Highs in the 60s will be common across much of the forecast area Monday through Wednesday, with a 70s not out of the question over the southwest. The broad upper level ridge responsible for this nice weather, begins to flatten by the middle of the week with more seasonable temperatures and perhaps a hit or miss shower by next weekend. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday afternoon) Issued at 1237 PM CDT Fri Oct 30 2020 Widespread stratus with IFR-LIFR ceilings and visibilities will continue at KMOT/KBIS/KJMS through the early afternoon. Southerly flow increases through the day, then LLWS after 00Z Saturday as surface winds diminish a bit but winds at 1500-2000 feet increase to around 50 knots. && .BIS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
