Area forecast discussion, Apr 1, 7:12 PM CDT, 3 hours 5 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Bismarck ND 712 PM CDT Wed Apr 1 2020 .UPDATE... Issued at 712 PM CDT Wed Apr 1 2020 Quick update to let the Winter Weather Advisory in the northwest and far north central expire as scheduled at 00 UTC in line with the latest observational trends. UPDATE Issued at 538 PM CDT Wed Apr 1 2020 We increased PoPs for predominantly snow across central ND through about 03 UTC with this update to reflect ongoing radar and surface observation trends. Namely, convectively-enhanced snow showers are persisting in the post-frontal regime, particularly where midlevel lapse rates exceed 7 C/km and where RAP-based soundings show non- zero, though weak MUCAPE aloft. Precipitation is being aided by midlevel frontogenesis as well. Guidance suggests midlevel lapse rates will become more stable by mid evening as the post-frontal air mass cools further, and the initial frontogenesis will also weaken. Otherwise, no changes to headlines or the rest of the forecast are being made at this time, though we fully expect to let the Winter Weather Advisory in northwest and far north central ND to expire as scheduled at 00 UTC. We'll be monitoring mesoscale trends from SD into far south central ND closely later this evening to assess how the next round of potential banded precipitation may evolve overnight. && .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday) Issued at 220 PM CDT Wed Apr 1 2020 As an upper level shortwave continues to rotate north and east, snow across the north will continue to taper off through the evening. Further south, expect some rain and snow showers to persist through the afternoon and into the evening, potentially mixed with some light freezing rain and/or sleet. As the snow has continued to diminish, we elected to go ahead and convert the Winter Storm Warning across the far northwest to an Advisory. With light snow still lingering in these areas, will keep the Advisory going for now. After a brief lull in activity, another shortwave rotates around the base of a western trough into south central North Dakota tonight. Precipitation across the far south central and southern James River Valley will likely start as rain, transitioning to a wintry mix of rain, freezing rain, and snow, and then eventually to all snow. At times on Thursday, snow may mix with freezing drizzle across the southern James River Valley as forecast soundings suggest the loss of ice aloft periodically. Yet another wave rounds the base of the trough into southwestern and south central North Dakota during the late morning hours on Thursday, spreading accumulating snow across portions of the southwest and much of the central. When all is said and done, 4 to 6 inches of snow is likely across the James River Valley with ice accumulations of up to a tenth of an inch. Further west and north (including the Bismarck/Mandan area), confidence is increasing in accumulations reaching the 3 to 5 inch range. Because of this, we have elected to expand the Winter Weather Advisory area west and north, although we will not begin the Advisory in these areas until 12z on Thursday. The only other change was to up the start time of the Advisory over the James River Valley to 03z Thursday as guidance has come better in line regarding onset timing. Expect cold temperatures on Thursday with highs in the 20s. .LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Wednesday) Issued at 220 PM CDT Wed Apr 1 2020 Snow will begin to diminish to the east late Thursday night into Friday morning as the main vort lobe finally pushes out of western and central North Dakota. A subtle upper ridge moves in Friday afternoon which will lead to subsidence and widespread clearing. The ridging will also start to slowly moderate temperatures again after a chilly morning, mainly in the teens. Friday will see highs in the 30s, and we will see highs this time frame back into the 40s again through the rest of the weekend. A progressive pattern continues and various weak waves will bring chances of light rain and/or snow through Sunday night, but details and exact timing remain unclear at this time. A more substantial warm-up comes back into the forecast by the beginning of the next work week with widespread highs in the 50s and 60s by Tuesday. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Thursday evening) Issued at 712 PM CDT Wed Apr 1 2020 MVFR ceilings will gradually improve to VFR from west to east this evening through 06Z with KJMS possibly remaining MVFR (with brief periods of IFR) overnight, though this is less certain. Conditions deteriorate for the far south-central and James River Valley, including KJMS, early Thursday morning with chances for snow. Periods of heavier snow could drop KJMS cigs/vsby to IFR in the 12-18Z time frame. Gusty northwest winds continue for all of western/central North Dakota through the TAF period. && .BIS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
