What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Bismarck, ND wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Oct 12, 5:49 AM MDT, 3 hours 24 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Oct 12, 5:49 AM MDT, 3 hours 24 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Bismarck ND 649 AM CDT Wed Oct 12 2022 .UPDATE... Issued at 629 AM CDT Wed Oct 12 2022 Modified POPs and sky cover to better reflect satellite imagery and radar imagery/trends. Winds increasing, and will quickly ramp up as the morning progresses. See below for further discussion. && .SHORT TERM...(Today through Thursday) Issued at 430 AM CDT Wed Oct 12 2022 Forecast highlights in the short term period will be strong winds and critical fire weather conditions today and likely again on Thursday. Currently, upper ridge remains off the West Coast with the upper trough remaining over central North America. 140kt upper level jet nosing southeast across eastern Montana early this morning, accompanied by a strong embedded mid level wave. Left exit region jet dynamics coupled with the wave results in extensive mid level cloud cover over the local region along with scattered shower activity. Little liquid is reaching the ground given relatively high cloud bases of 6-9K feet AGL, but enough to make the ground wet and perhaps a few hundreths measuring some locations. The shower activity is also helping to mix down stronger mid level winds, with earlier seeing a 51 mph gust measured at Garrison when the showers moved through there. Showers will continue to move southeast across the state this morning, ending by a few hours after sunrise with decreasing forcing aloft. Not much has changed for the expected weather today. As we mix out the low level inversion later this morning, winds will ramp up quickly, with 40-45 knots within the mixed layer right off the bat, and persisting through the day. Considered upgrading southwest ND to a high wind warning (a few model soundings show possible 50-55kt winds in the mixed layer), but there is enough disagreement amongst various models that we held off for now, but did mention winds as high as 55 mph in the NPW. Thus will keep the wind advisory going for all locations with this product issuance and monitor obs in case an upgrade does become warranted. Other highlight today (and Thursday) is fire weather, and more can be read in regards to that below in the fire weather part of the discussion. Winds decrease this evening, but will remain breezy at times. Winds then ramp back up again for Thursday, this time a bit farther to the east, more over the central part of the state and towards the James River Valley. .LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Tuesday) Issued at 430 AM CDT Wed Oct 12 2022 The extended period will see the large upper level low remaining quasi-stationary through the end of the week off to our east, then slowly lifting off to the east/northeast over the weekend. Resultant weather across the Northern Plains will be continued cool temperatures and breezy northwest winds through Saturday and perhaps Sunday, though definitely not as strong as today or Thursday will see. While mainly dry conditions are forecast, cannot discount entirely a chance of light precipitation with any subtle embedded wave/boundary which may rotate through our region. As the low pushes off to the east, weak upper level ridge over the western CONUS develops east towards the Rockies, trending temperatures warmer and maintaining dry conditions under a north/northwesterly flow aloft. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday Morning) Issued at 629 AM CDT Wed Oct 12 2022 Northwest winds rapidly increasing this morning, then persisting through the day today, before tapering off a bit this evening. Expect northwesterly gusts of 35 to 45 kts at times late this morning through the afternoon. Mid level clouds and some light showers this morning will then give way to clearing this afternoon and into tonight resulting in VFR conditions for all terminals through the 06Z period. && .FIRE WEATHER... Issued at 430 AM CDT Wed Oct 12 2022 Critical fire weather conditions are expected today across all of western and central North Dakota. Northwest winds sustained between 25 and 35 mph, with gusts as high as 55 mph, will develop quickly from after sunrise through mid-morning, once we mix out the morning inversion, roughly by 15-16Z. Minimum percent relative humidity values this afternoon will drop into the mid to upper 20s, and as low as 21 percent across northwestern North Dakota. The strongest winds are expected over southwest North Dakota, where afternoon relative humidity will range from the mid 20s to around 30 percent. Given the expected weather and dry fuel conditions, the entire Fire Weather Watch was upgraded to a Red Flag warning, and we also added Kidder, Logan, and McIntosh counties to the Red FLag (they were not in the original watch). Near critical fire weather conditions are possible again on Thursday, especially from the central part of the state and into the James River Valley. Northwest wind gusts may again approach 50 to 55 mph with minimum percent relative humidity values possibly as low as the low to mid 20s. && .BIS WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
