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 29, 6:13 AM CDT, 3 hours 49 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 29, 6:13 AM CDT, 3 hours 49 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD 613 AM CDT Sun Mar 29 2020 .SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight) Issued at 223 AM CDT Sun Mar 29 2020 Light precipitation continues to move away from the forecast area early this morning, and winds are gradually subsiding. Still seeing some gusts approach 40 knots in areas near Spencer, so will continue the wind advisory for another hour or two. Otherwise, mid-lvl clouds continue to clear from west to east, with cirrus drifting back westward. Temperatures will drop a couple degrees lower than previously forecast. Today: A quiet and warmer Sunday is anticipated across the region. Winds are expected to remain breezy in areas along and east of I-29 into the early afternoon hours. With a good deal of sunshine and warming 925 mb temperatures, we should climb above normal in most locations. Tonight: Surface high pressure moves across the region into Monday morning. With light winds and wet ground do have some concerns for fog. Short term models not picking up on that potential yet, but are more suggestive of lower stratus developing across northeastern South Dakota and central Minnesota drifting southwest by Monday morning. .LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday) Issued at 223 AM CDT Sun Mar 29 2020 Monday: Mid-lvl ridging will lead to another dry day on Monday, as a southeast surface wind develops. Once again, with slightly warmer 925 mb temperatures and more sun than clouds, we should see temperatures climb above the seasonal normals and into the 50s. Clouds will increase across central Nebraska and central South Dakota by the afternoon hours, as broad low-lvl warm advection intensifies and a tongue of moisture lifts northward into the area. Monday night: Warm advection will try to spread eastward Monday night, but it will run into a bit more dry air as it does so. A fairly steady southeast to east 850 mb flow will advect lower dew points westward and serve to limit the eastward extension of precipitation into Tuesday. Temperatures will fall near their seasonal normals. Tuesday: Dissipating low-lvl moisture will gradually clear by mid- day Tuesday as we see increasing southwesterly surface and low-lvl flow develop. Warm advection and slightly deeper mixing should push temperatures Tuesday towards the 60s. Have nudged up winds a bit higher than guidance suggests for Tuesday afternoon and evening. Tuesday Night: Broad upper diffluence will move into the region on the nose of a 120 kt 250 mb jet. Shortwave energy and associated warm advection entering the Plains Tuesday night will help produce showers and light rain into Wednesday morning. QPF amounts will remain light, but PoPs have increased slightly tonight. Wednesday-Friday: Medium range guidance remains supportive of increasing PoPs for the second half of the week as southwesterly flow aloft develops due to deeper troughing over the Northern Rockies and Pacific Northwest. Still some questions as far as where an inverted surface trough will develop on Wednesday, and this has kept PoPs on the lower end of guidance given model spread. Colder air begins to move southeast into the area on Thursday, and we should begin to see temperatures fall back to normal or slightly below normal levels into next weekend. With the broad southwesterly flow persisting aloft, and baroclinic zone moving from northwest to southeast Thursday and Thursday night, this timeframe will likely feature the highest risks for precipitation into Friday. Based on the overnight guidance, PoPs will likely increase over the upcoming days. Saturday: At this point it looks as if drier and cooler temperatures will setting into the region for the upcoming weekend. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Monday morning) Issued at 611 AM CDT Sun Mar 29 2020 VFR conditions are anticipated through the day and overnight hours ahead. Winds will remain slightly gusty through the afternoon, with the strongest winds over portions of southern Minnesota and northwestern Iowa. Winds will turn light and variable after dark. && .FSD WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SD...NONE. MN...NONE. IA...NONE. NE...NONE. && SHORT TERM...Dux LONG TERM...Dux AVIATION...Dux
