.SHORT TERM...(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 304 AM CDT Mon Jun 13 2022

KEY MESSAGES:
1. Convection lingers a bit through Monday morning.
2. Very hot conditions likely Monday.
3. Lingering heat Tuesday, then overnight rain.
4. "Cooler" midweek with dry conditions.
5. The heat returns for next weekend.

THIS MORNING: MCS gradually weakening this morning as it moves
towards the Minnesota state line.  This MCS will eventually take
more of an easterly turn, but given recent trends, is beginning to
struggle.  Elsewhere, signals of increasing 850mb warm advection are
appearing with additional convection forming near the Missouri
River, and then across central South Dakota.  This elevated
convection could pose an isolated risk for large hail and strong
downburst winds should updrafts collapse, but effective shear is
rather poor so widespread severe isn't as likely.  Will need to
watch portions of the Highway 14 corridor for wake low winds, as
high easterly winds have been observed further west.

TODAY: Anticipating some convection to linger into the mid-
morning hours given persistent low-lvl convergence. The RAP is
indicating that this scattered activity could continue well into
the morning, though it is the only solution to advertise this
possibility.  The story for today though should be the rapid
increase in surface dew points and surging high temperatures later
this afternoon. Currently indications point to dew points along a
slowly northeastward advancing warm front to climb into the low
to even middle 70s. With temperatures well into the 90s, heat
index values climb between 100- 107 in most areas. The one
questionable area could be in the far northeastern portions of the
CWA where the front may just reach the area later in the
afternoon. Will expand the heat advisory across the remaining
portions of the CWA.

TONIGHT: An advancing cold front reaches the western CWA after
midnight tonight. Persistent mixy and gusty southwest winds really
prevent much fall in temperatures tonight ahead of the boundary.
Lows may struggle to fall below 80 degrees, with 60s and 70s in in
the post frontal airmass.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday)
Issued at 304 AM CDT Mon Jun 13 2022

TUESDAY: The latest guidance slides the cold front into northwest
Iowa by daybreak Tuesday. A rapid warmup is likely in the morning
with early highs in the upper 80s to lower 90s along and east of
a line from Yankton to Marshall. Temperatures warm into the lower
80s further west by the afternoon.

TUESDAY NIGHT-WEDNESDAY:  Elevated post frontal convection will form
Tuesday evening into Wednesday morning, mainly impacting areas
southeast of a Yankton to Marshall line.  At this point, the risks
for severe storms continue to look low. Temperatures on Wednesday
remain near normal with a breezy and drier westerly wind.

THURSDAY-FRIDAY:  Cooler and dry conditions are likely to finish the
work week.  Mid-lvl heights begin to build to our west, and this
will keep us under the influence of Great Lakes high pressure.

SATURDAY-SUNDAY: Those rising heights continue to increase and the
ridge axis slides east of I-29 for the upcoming weekend.  This will
open up the area to stronger southwesterly flow, strong thermal
advection and a high likelihood of seeing high temperatures well
into the 90s again.

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Tuesday morning)
Issued at 611 AM CDT Mon Jun 13 2022

Bit of a messy aviation forecast for the upcoming 6 hours as
series of MCVs move eastward and we're stuck in the cool easterly
outflow. This may result in a few hours of MVFR stratus and
lingering sprinkles or showers.

We should eventually turn towards VFR ceilings by mid-day with
increasing southeasterly surface flow.

Tonight, a fairly impressive setup for LLWS is likely to develop
within the axis of the SW low level jet. High based clouds
approach towards the end of the TAF period as a surface front
moves east.
