AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD
631 PM CDT Sun May 29 2022

.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Monday)
Issued at 220 PM CDT Sun May 29 2022

The main concerns center around the severe weather threat over
roughly the next 36 hours.

The driving force behind this continued threat for severe weather is
an upper level low pressure that is expected to deepen over the
central and northern Rockies tonight, then drift into central SD and
northeast ND through Monday night. This will aid in backing the low
to mid level flow through Monday afternoon which will keep
instability in place through this period.

Thunderstorm development is still expected to occur later, likely 7-
9pm for the initial development. Capping is just too strong with the
thick mid level deck of clouds. There will be a small window before
we decouple after sunset when a few very strong updrafts could
develop, likely near northeast NE into southeast SD. CAPE values
around 2500 J/kg will be likely with a strong and balanced shear
profile from about 900 mb to 200 mb. The lowest few hundred feet may
see questionable shear but if a few supercells can develop they
would likely be able to sort of create their own environment to some
extent, thus leading to the potential for a couple of tornadoes.
Along with this threat will come a chance for hail to around tennis
ball size and wind gusts to 70 mph with a nice pool of dry air from
700 mb to 500 mb. After the initial development in the area between
about 0-3z timing become very difficult with strong southwest flow
aloft and frequent pieces of energy wrapping northward. It does look
like after about 9z much of northwest IA, northeast NE and far
southeast SD will see much more isolated activity as a stronger
piece of energy wraps north. So for now leaning towards the highest
severe potential from about 1z to 9z.

Monday will be a very interesting and potentially dangerous severe
weather day. In the morning stronger backed flow in the low levels
will likely drive shower and thunderstorm development in central SD.
While shear is not very impressive there will be plenty of elevated
instability to support a few hailers near and west of the James
River through the morning. Near and shortly after 18z the low
continues to deepen and lift north which will swing the dry slot
northeast and significantly increase shear. With such strong forcing
we may not need to wait until late afternoon to break the cap and
significant updrafts could begin to develop as early as 17-18z,
depending mostly on the timing of the low lifting north. With the
combination of CAPE values near 2000 J/kg and deep, strong shear
updrafts should rotate pretty quickly and a few tornadoes will be
possible. Not out of the question to see a stronger tornado with the
higher threat of this near and east of Interstate 29. The next 36
hours will definitely be an important time to keep up to date on the
weather.

Outside of the severe threat far eastern SD, southwest MN and
northwest IA may need a wind advisory with very strong winds in the
lowest 1 to 1.5 km. Gusts may be around 45 mph at times.

.LONG TERM...(Monday Night through Sunday)
Issued at 220 PM CDT Sun May 29 2022

Monday night should see the severe threat diminish pretty quickly
with parts of northwest IA remaining in some more unstable air
potentially through mid evening. Otherwise a strong and deep
westerly flow will develop and usher in some cooler conditions. Lows
likely in the 50s.

Tuesday will see smaller chances for showers near highway 14 mainly
in the morning. Otherwise breezy conditions with gusts around 25 mph
through the day.

Wednesday into next weekend still showing a cooler pattern with
mostly below normal temperatures and only smaller chances for showers
and thunderstorms. The warmest day looks to be Friday as deeper
westerly flow develops. This may be the only day above normal
through this period.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday evening)
Issued at 631 PM CDT Sun May 29 2022

Latest satellite imagery shows mid to upper level clouds drifting
northeastward across the region ahead of an advancing wave. Heading
into the evening and overnight period, expect chances for showers
and storms to gradually increase. That being said, believe the best
chances for seeing impact will occur sometime between 4 to 9z, with
any thunderstorm capable of causing cigs and vsbys to briefly be
reduced to MVFR levels.

Will likely see a lull in activity near daybreak through mid-
morning, with yet another round of showers and storms possible late
tomorrow morning through afternoon. However, confidence in exact
timing and location still remain rather low, as development will
largely depend on the track of the upper level low tonight. So, have
opted to only include mention in PROB30 group for the time being.
Aside from this, look for SE/S winds to quickly increase after
daybreak, with gusts between 35 to 45 mph possible along and east of
I-29 through the evening.

central South Dakota, east central South Dakota, south central
South Dakota, and southeast South Dakota.

.DAY ONE...Tonight

Another round of strong to severe thunderstorms is expected to
impact the area during the overnight period. While exact location
details are uncertain, it appears that storms will be capable of
producing hail up to tennis ball size and wind gusts to 70 mph. In
addition to this, can't rule out the possibility of seeing a few
isolated tornadoes occur.

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Monday through Saturday

Yet another round of strong to severe storms remains likely for
Monday afternoon and evening. Specific timing and location details
are uncertain, though this activity is more likely to develop
earlier in the day, with the threat diminishing by midnight Monday
night. All modes of severe weather are possible, including a few
tornadoes, very large hail, damaging winds, and perhaps localized
flash flooding.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...

Spotter activation is not expected at this time.
