AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD
628 PM CDT Mon Jun 8 2020

.UPDATE...
Issued at 628 PM CDT Mon Jun 8 2020

Towering cumulus have begun to form just south of the South Dakota
and Nebraska border near Gregory and Charles Mix counties. We are
expecting new cells to develop in this area by 7 PM. Per the RAP 0-6
km shear is from 50-60 kts in this area - with MLCAPE from
2000-2500 J/kg. With storms expected to remain discrete through 8
or 9 PM, this is more than adequate to support the development of
supercells for the next couple of hours. The storms are forming
behind the cold front so the initial threat will be very large
hail...perhaps as large as 2 inches. New storm development is
also expected farther north toward Mitchell and Huron by 8 PM.
Toward sunset, storms may being to also grow upscale and bring an
increasing wind threat as DCAPES in this area are from 1000-1200
J/kg. The severe threat will persist well after sunset.

Have also issued a flash flood watch for areas west of a Tyndall
to De Smet SD line. With the front only slowly moving east
multiple rounds of thunderstorms are likely through 12Z Tuesday
in this area with rainfall of 1-3 inches possible. In addition,
some storms may produce rainfall rates in excess of 2 inches per
hour for brief periods also posing a flash flood risk in poor
drainage areas.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 249 PM CDT Mon Jun 8 2020

The main concern in the short term is the severe weather and flash
flood threat this evening into early Tuesday morning.

At 19Z, a surface front extended from near Huron to Lake Andes. A
large area of capped cumulus has formed ahead of the front.
Despite the clouds, just ahead of the front, temperatures have
warmed into the mid to upper 80s and should approach near 90 later
this afternoon. Behind the front, temperatures are in the mid 70s
to lower 80s. RAP soundings indicate a cap remains in place
across north central Nebraska into southeastern South Dakota.
Ahead of the front, the cap is unlikely to be broke. However,
with the approach of a weak upper wave around 22Z, large scale
ascent will help to erode the cap near the SD/NE border in the
vicinity Ainsworth. In addition, cyclogenesis in northern Kansas
is resulting in backing surfaced winds over southern Nebraska
which is beginning to increase convergence. Expectation that
increased convergence and weakening cap will result in convective
initiation from 22Z- 00Z in north central Nebraska and then
spread north during the evening. 0-6 km shear just behind the
front is 45-60 kts with MLCAPE from 1500-2500 J/kg. Initial cells
will be discrete and at least a few supercells should develop as
depicted by multiple runs of the HRRR this morning and afternoon.
With 0-1 km shear 10 kts or less, tornadoes are unlikely although
boundary interactions could lead to a couple of tornadoes. The
bigger threat will be large hail - perhaps as large as 2-2.5
inches with the strongest cells during the evening. With downdraft
CAPE > 1000 J/kg, damaging winds will also be possible.

Storms will coalesce into a line during the evening. With deep
southerly flow, storms will tend to train over the same area from
south central South Dakota toward Huron and De Smet. Few, if any
storms, are expected to reach I-29 overnight with the front
expected to remain west of the area. In fact, as storms become
more elevated, they are likely to develop farther west toward
Gregory and Chamberlain later tonight. With convection expected to
extend through the night, rainfall of 1-3 inches is expected from
Huron toward Lake Andes with local amounts approaching 4 inches
possible. As convective initiation gets closer and we ascertain
where the heavy rain is most likely, we will likely issue a flash
flood watch.

The boundary will slowly move east through the area Tuesday. Ahead
of the boundary, temperatures will initially warm into the 70s but
once the front goes through and northwest winds increase, cooler
air will move into the area. In fact, temperatures will likely
fall during the afternoon in many places along and east of I-29
which is rare for June. While rainfall rates will decrease, showers
and a few thunderstorms will continue much of the day bringing up
to another inch of rain west of I-29.

The other weather concern will be the remnants of Tropical Storm
Cristobal. While the center of circulation will stay in the
Mississippi Valley, most of the rain will be west of the track.
Some of that rain may get as far west as Highway 71 or even
Highway 59 in Iowa and Minnesota on Tuesday. While the heaviest
rainfall will be closer to I-35, portions of northwest Iowa and
southwest Minnesota could see up to a half inch of rain.

There is uncertainty on how much rain will fall from the I-29
corridor into southwestern Minnesota. Some showers and storms will
move across this area Tuesday afternoon and evening - but these
may be weakening so that rainfall may be much lighter. This area
is most likely to see around 1/2 inch of rain but there is the
possibility of even less rain should showers west of I-29 weaken
more quickly than currently forecast.

Finally winds on Tuesday will become fairly strong behind the
front. 925 mb winds of 30 to 40 kts are expected so that winds may
gust to 40 mph during Tuesday afternoon.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday Night through Monday)
Issued at 249 PM CDT Mon Jun 8 2020

With the active short-term, have generally gone with model
consensus for Tuesday night through next Monday. Showers will
gradually end on Wednesday. In fact several deterministic models
as well as a majority of the SREF members are showing rain ending
by early Wednesday morning. Winds will remain gusty Tuesday night
into Wednesday with gusts at or above 40 mph possible along and
east of I-29. Dry weather is then expected into the weekend with
temperatures gradually warming back above normal into the 80s by
early next week.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Tuesday evening)
Issued at 440 PM CDT Mon Jun 8 2020

Showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop west of
Interstate 29 overnight, and a few of these storms could be severe
through 06Z. In addition, heavy rain will be likely with the
storms during the period. The showers, along with isolated
thunderstorms, will begin to slide eastward on Tuesday bringing
rain to the remainder of the area.

Gusty southerly winds this evening will diminish during the late
evening, though winds could be gusty in the vicinity of
thunderstorms. As a frontal boundary works across the area through
Tuesday, northerly winds will increase with the passage of the
front.
