AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD
231 PM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Monday)
Issued at 229 PM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020

Active forecast today with very weakly capped unstable environment
across the forecast area.  Surface boundary loosely extending from
Yankton to Slayton MN, with surface based CAPE south and east of
there around 2500 J/kg.  As moisture continues to feed into the
region, could see CAPE values approach 3000 J/kg.  Several potential
mechanisms aiding in convective initiation this afternoon.  Forecast
area is located in the right rear quadrant of upper level jet streak
across central Minnesota to add in upper level lift. Weak short wave
is expected to rotate around upper trough centered north of
Minnesota late this afternoon, and may interact with surface
boundary and gravity waves emanating from elevated storms in eastern
Nebraska.  Depending on which feature(s) dominate, thunderstorms are
expected to develop in the 20-21Z time frame when cap is quite
weak.

Many of the CAMs are focusing on northeast Nebraska for convective
initiation, building north and east along the boundary, then moving
east with time.  0-6 km bulk shear is around 30 knots, with slightly
higher values west of the surface boundary across central and
eastern South Dakota. Veering profiles will aid in storm
organization and evolution.  With a few boundaries around, could see
a tornado or two with any isolated convection or with storms along
boundaries. Expect main severe threat to be large hail, damaging
winds and heavy rain.  With steep mid level lapse rates, and mid
level shear, agree with previous assessment/SPC outlook for large
hail to near baseball sized.  Precipitable water has spiked to 1.3-
1.5", near the 90 percentile moving mean. HREF ensemble mean
guidance suggesting 0.75-1.50 inches in 3 hour period with max
values approaching 3" across much of northwest Iowa. Am comfortable
leaving the flash flood watch as is for now, highlighting the area
that received 1-3" inches earlier this morning.

After 06Z tonight, atmosphere is only weakly capped from lift near
900 mb.  Could see an elevated storm early Monday morning.  Still
~1000 J/kg of elevated CAPE, and may see isolated storms produce
severe hail.

Much weaker instability and unidirectional shear profiles should
limit severe potential on Monday but may have storms around
especially during peak heating.  Fair amount of clouds and cooler
temperatures will keep temperatures below normal.

.LONG TERM...(Monday Night through Sunday)
Issued at 229 PM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020

Cooler and drier conditions expected Tuesday into Wednesday as
surface high pressure remains across the region.

Negatively tilted trough is expected to move into the Plains on
Thursday into Friday, creating the next potential for storms and
severe weather.

Next weekend is looking fairly warm as upper ridge builds across the
west and 850 hpa temps warm into the upper teens to near 20C. This
should yield highs well into the 80s, with the potential for a near
90 degree reading.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon)
Issued at 1228 PM CDT Sun Jun 21 2020
A couple of areas of concern today. The obvious concern is across
northwest Iowa where convection is likely after 20Z today. Could
see visibility reduced in heavy rain. Storms could also produce
large hail, damaging winds, and perhaps a tornado through the
evening hours. Thereafter, the threat for an elevated storm will
linger through much of the overnight hours into Monday morning.

Further to the northwest, elevated high based showers are possible
through mid afternoon. After 00Z Monday, the chance of
thunderstorms moving in from western portions of the state
increase. This activity should gradually wane through the
overnight, though isolated storms are possible through Monday
morning.
