The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Sioux Falls, SD wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at Mar 4, 5:15 PM CST, 5 hours 36 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 4, 5:15 PM CST, 5 hours 36 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD
515 PM CST Wed Mar 4 2020
.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Thursday Night)
Issued at 257 PM CST Wed Mar 4 2020
For tonight, the main story is the approaching cold front which will
be passing through the area overnight. Cold air advection behind the
front will create some gusty winds, and a few light rain showers are
likely as well. Amounts will remain light, with a small chance for a
brief rain/snow mixture as the precipitation comes to an end.
Winds aloft will strengthen prior to sunrise, and will begin to mix
down as the boundary layer destabilizes leading to strong sustained
winds throughout the day Thursday. Sustained winds up to 35 mph are
likely with gusts as high as 55 mph. As the cold front will have
brought in cooler air, high temperatures will be limited to the
40's, which are still above normal for this time of the year. In
areas with no snow, there is concern for fire danger due to the
strong winds and low relative humidities expected on Thursday. Fire
danger levels are currently reaching high to very high in areas with
no snow, but current guidance for our area suggests relative
humidity values will remain high enough for us not to issue a red
flag warning.
As mixing ceases with the sunset, the winds will decouple and be
brought back down to reasonable levels as a surface high pressure
slides in from the northwest. Temperatures will dip down into the
20s for most locations, while areas along Highway 14 could see upper
teens Friday morning.
.LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday)
Issued at 257 PM CST Wed Mar 4 2020
Friday we begin to see the upper ridge build into the Plains,
bringing well above normal temperatures to the region through the
weekend. Friday is still a transition day, so a little uncertainty
in exactly how much warm air will mix to the surface in the wake of
departing surface ridge. However, given increasing south-southwest
flow by midday, will favor the warmer side of guidance, which is
dominated by bias-corrected solutions.
For the upcoming weekend, broad blend already in the warmer half of
guidance, so will not make significant temperatures changes, though
will nudge our southern areas which have been free of snow for
several days up a bit closer to bias-corrected guidance. Largest
impact of this will be on Sunday, when some variances in frontal
timing are resulting in cooler blended guidance than most of the
latest models would suggest, again especially across our southern
counties. In general, looking at a very mild weekend, with highs in
the mid 50s-mid 70s Saturday, and a bit cooler Sunday. The primary
difference from previous warm periods is overnight lows will remain
well above freezing, especially Saturday night when lows in the 40s
are expected for most of the forecast area. This will make a large
dent in any remaining snow cover, and also lead to greater rises on
area streams and rivers than we have seen thus far this late winter.
Moisture initially somewhat lacking with the frontal passage on
Sunday, so daytime hours expected to remain dry. However, do see
some increase in moisture and some hint of weak instability as the
front reaches our eastern counties in the evening, followed by a
trailing wave through the Central Plains late Sunday night into
Monday. Will keep chance pops across mainly the southeast half of
the forecast area with these features, but does not look like any
significant precip amounts in our area. In addition, instability not
enough to introduce mention of thunder at this time, but may need to
monitor this potential as we move through the upcoming days.
Cooler temperatures settle back into the area early next week, below
normal for early March, but with highs still above freezing in most
areas. Another chance of light precipitation toward the end of the
forecast period. Models showing little agreement on strength/timing
the next wave, but some consensus pointing to Tuesday night as the
better chance.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Thursday evening)
Issued at 511 PM CST Wed Mar 4 2020
A cold front will sweep through the area overnight, bringing a
slight threat of a passing rain shower and gusty winds. In
addition, as winds increase aloft, low level wind shear will occur
at all TAF sites through Thursday morning. Northwesterly winds
will continue to increase on Thursday, with gusts around 40 kts
during the afternoon.
