flash flooding. Do not drive your vehicle through flooded roadways.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Glasgow MT
1203 PM MDT Tue Jun 8 2021

.DISCUSSION...

1130AM UPDATE:
Morning dewpoints have begun to rise across the area but have not
reached critical mass yet for thunderstorms development. Dewpoints
also seem just underneath what some of the CAMs have been
displaying for this hour. While dewpoint rises may be delayed an
hour or so, strong east winds are already ratcheting up and 60+
dewpoints are just on the doorstep of the CWA in North Dakota. In
addition there is plenty of light to moderate strato-cirrus
flowing in from the south which is helping to keep the current
stratus from destabilizing into full convection as fast. But, a
couple morning thunderstorms around 9AM did prove that the
atmosphere at least aloft is ready to pop. For these reasons we
will be doing a 19Z upper air sounding to try to get a more
accurate feel for precipitable water, timing of cell development,
and hopeful improvement to the HRRR model as the afternoon
progresses. GAH

MORNING DISCUSSION:
A wave moving through SE Montana early this morning is bringing
some showers and thunderstorms to the SE part of the forecast
area. The rain will move to the east shortly after sunrise this
morning. SW flow aloft combined with an ESE low level flow will
bring increasing moisture into the area today. Look for a rapid
rise in dew points from 25 west to 45 east at 2 am (08Z) to 55 to
65 across the area this afternoon. A warm front lifts north
through SE Montana today with a surface low. The front is expected
to stall somewhere south of the Missouri River this afternoon and
remain stationary tonight as the low moves into North Dakota with
a cold front. An inverted surface trough to the NW of the surface
low will become the focus area of convection today and tonight.
The trough will combine with several ingredients necessary for
severe thunderstorms. CAPE will as high as 4000 J/Kg range this
afternoon and evening in the east. Lapse rates and shear values
will also be strong. SPC has maintained a slight risk for severe
thunderstorms, with an embedded hatched area for possible
tornadoes and hail that could exceed 2 inches in diameter. Locally
heavy rainfall is possible as precipitable water approaches 1.75
inches. There is a potential for 2+ inch downpours especially
north of the Missouri River that even in a severe drought could
bring flash flooding. Will issue a Flash Flood Watch for areas
north of the Missouri River for late this afternoon and tonight.

East winds will be strong enough today and this evening for a
Lake Wind Advisory for Fort Peck Lake.

Wednesday for the most part will be a break between system with a
shortwave ridge in the SW flow aloft.

A cold front in western Montana ahead of an upper trough in the
Pacific NW will bring thunderstorms to central Montana that could
move through the western zones of the forecast area Wednesday
Night.

The upper trough and cold front moves into the forecast area
Thursday afternoon and evening. Atmosphere once again will be very
unstable ahead of the cold front with CAPE exceeding 3000 j/kg in
some areas. Look for thunderstorms with heavy rain possible and another
round of severe thunderstorms as strong as today's.

Chances for showers and thunderstorms will linger into Friday
especially in the NE as the upper trough moves into Canada.

The weekend looks dry with an upper ridge and surface high
pressure.

&&

.AVIATION...

LAST UPDATED: 1745Z

FLIGHT CAT: VFR-IFR

DISCUSSION: A mix of IFR, MVFR and VFR this afternoon and
tonight. A few showers and thunderstorms will move through the
KGDV through 14z this morning. Low pressure and warm front will
move north into SE Montana today. The low will move northeast into
NW North Dakota tonight. Showers and thunderstorms will develop
this morning in the KGGW and KOLF areas this morning and spread
into the KSDY and KGDV areas this afternoon. Some storms will be
severe with LARGE HAIL and DAMAGING WIND that could exceed 50
knots this afternoon and evening. Heavy rain will reduce
visibility to IFR levels at times. Low clouds will bring a mix of
MVFR and IFR ceilings at times tonight.

WIND: East at 15 to 30 kts today. Turning to the north and NE and
diminishing to around 10 kts tonight. Strong and erratic winds
are expected near thunderstorms and in any outflows that occurs in
thunderstorms.
