Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Duluth MN
427 PM CDT Mon Jul 26 2021

.DISCUSSION...(This evening through Sunday)
Issued at 426 PM CDT Mon Jul 26 2021

Summary...The main concern this forecast is this evening's
convection with the Enhanced risk of severe storms we have. After
that, we have warm weather continuing with chance for more showers
and thunderstorms on Wednesday, and again on Friday.

The convection this evening is an unusual Enhanced risk for this
area, which we do not typically see more than a couple of days a
summer around here. There is a low pressure system over central
North Dakota this afternoon, with a warm front draped east into
our area, generally from the Brainerd Lakes region east into
northwest Wisconsin. Along and south of this boundary the airmass
is strongly unstable, with surface based CAPE values already over
2k j/Kg, with models indicating it may get up over 3k j/Kg at some
point this evening. Sounding from this morning show an Elevated
Mixed Layer that should be over our area this evening that is also
showing as a drier area on satellite imagery. This EML will
produce steep lapse rates in the mid levels, even as it also
produces the capping that we are seeing at the lower levels this
afternoon. Model soundings show that we should have a long
hodograph this evening with moderate to strong winds aloft to help
lengthen it, despite the weaker winds in the boundary layer. This
all shows that if we can get convection to fire, severe storms
are likely, with very large hail and strong winds, as already
depicted in the SPC day one severe outlook. We may have a very
weak shortwave moving along the North Dakota/Manitoba line this
afternoon which has been generating an area of accas and -tsra
over northwest Minnesota this afternoon. This is likely based in
the 700-600mb Warm air advection region, and we do not expect this
area to grow significantly or become rooted in the surface based
instability, at least in part due to its position relative to the
surface boundary. However, ahead of the surface low over eastern
North Dakota we have some decent pressure falls over northwest
Minnesota and would expect some new development in this area
sometime in the next few hours. Models have been wildly
inconsistent in depicting this event, with the NAMNest and FV3SAR
showing development over NW MN and eastern ND by 01z, then sliding
southeast across the forecast area, but the HRRR not developing
anything until after 03z, and with much less coverage than either
of the other models. Uncertainty in timing and evolution is still
pretty high, even as of late afternoon. Unfortunately, we are in
the wait and see mode, and we will have to see how things evolve
this evening. There may be some lingering showers into early
Tuesday morning, but otherwise expect the bulk of the convection
to be out of the forecast area shortly after midnight.

Tuesday should be relatively quiet with the boundary having
shifted south of the forecast area and weak ridging over the area.
Highs to get back into the 80s for the day, though slightly
cooler than today.

We have another chance for showers and thunderstorms on
Wednesday, and while we have a small threat for severe weather, am
not as concerned about it as I am for this evening. Should it
shift a little later in the day and allow instability to build
before the convection moves into the area, that would be a
different story. Highs to creep back up into the low 90s for the
Brainerd Lakes region.

After another quiet day on Thursday, another shortwave should
bring another chance for showers and thunderstorms Friday night
and early Saturday, but it is too soon to determine the severe
weather potential with this. This should usher in a bubble of
cooler temperatures aloft with cooler high temperatures through
the weekend, with highs back in the 70s to low 80s for both days.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday afternoon)
Issued at 1246 PM CDT Mon Jul 26 2021

Main concern this forecast time range is for the convection that
is expected to develop later this afternoon and last through the
evening hours, with showers lingering overnight. Have included a
tempo group for KDLH and KHYR with MVFR conditions and thunder,
the sites that appear most likely to be affected by thunderstorms.
Have with VCTS groups for KHIB and KBRD, and have kept them VFR.
Some MVFR/IFR fog and stratus is expected during the early morning
hours where the heavy rainfall occurs, and for now have included
these only for KDLH, KHIB and KHYR. Once the fog clears, expect
VFR conditions through remainder of TAF period.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 426 PM CDT Mon Jul 26 2021

Thunderstorm development this evening is also expected to affect
western Lake Superior, and may bring damaging winds and large
hail, especially right after it moves off land areas. There may
also be a period of increased winds in the hours after any
convection moves through the area, and we may need a short term
Small Craft Advisory for a few hours overnight. After tonight wind
stay out of the northeast for Tuesday at 10 to 15 knots, then
diminish Tuesday night and become westerly for Wednesday. Waves to
generally stay less than 2 ft.

A strong thunderstorm or two may be ongoing early Tuesday
morning. The chance of thunderstorms returns late Tuesday night
and continues through Wednesday night. A few storms may be strong
to severe mainly along and south of US Highway 2 in Minnesota and
