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 Sioux Falls, SD wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Apr 21, 10:36 PM CDT, 4 hours 52 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 21, 10:36 PM CDT, 4 hours 52 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Sioux Falls SD 1036 PM CDT Thu Apr 21 2022 .SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Friday Night) Issued at 352 PM CDT Thu Apr 21 2022 Quiet conditions continue across the region as upper level ridge remains overhead, with latest observations showing easterly winds and temperatures in the 50s to 60s. While gusts are certainly no where near Red Flag levels, do think its worth noting that falling dewpoints this afternoon and antecedent dry fuels continue to keep fire danger elevated across much of our area. So, please continue to exercise caution with any outdoor activities that may cause a spark. Heading into the evening, should see upper level ridging begin to degrade as a trough over the western CONUS pushes eastward toward the region. Meanwhile, at the sfc, models show a fairly broad area of WAA lifting northeastward across our area, causing rain chances to return to the forecast. In regard to timing, latest CAMs remain in fairly decent agreement that scattered showers and thunderstorms will blossom across NE Nebraska and NW Iowa near sunset, then lift into SE South Dakota and SW Minnesota during the overnight period. Taking a closer look at the dynamics, current soundings do show MUCAPE values near 1000 J/kg, bulk shear values near 40 kts, and lapse rates approaching 7 degC/km. Thus, with profiles remaining largely elevated, believe that isolated large hail will be the primary hazard with any storm that becomes strong to severe. Winds during this time will also begin to ramp up as the sfc pressure gradient tightens, resulting in gusts between 20 to 30 mph for much of the overnight period. Otherwise, look for lows to remain fairly mild, as values only fall into the low 40s to low 50s. By Friday, expect the aforementioned upper level trough and sfc low pressure to strengthen as they move in tandem toward the region. While a few showers may still be ongoing near daybreak, should see somewhat of a lull in activity throughout the day as a sfc warm front lifts northward across the Northern Great Plains. Winds during this time will only continue to strengthen, with gust between 35 to 45 mph becoming common. Could even see locations along and west of the James River gusts as high as 50 mph, though this will largely depend on how far north the sfc warm front lifts, which in turn will affect how mixy we get. Thus, have opted to forgo any Wind Headlines for the time being, given the somewhat lower degree of confidence. Aside from wind, the other main concern Friday will be the threat for severe weather. Latest hi-res guidance continues to hint that convection may initiate 1) behind the advancing warm front or 2) along a dryline or cold front. At this time, believe the better chances will occur along the cold front given the lack of forcing in the warm sector. However, there will still be a few limiting factors to overcome. For one, we'll see quite the warm up in temperatures, as highs soar into the mid 60s to mid 80s - with some locations along the MO River Valley possibly approaching 90 if we get enough mixing. While these values can certainly have an effect on instability, the influx of warm air coupled with antecedent dry conditions will only work to further reduce our moisture across the region. The second limiting factor to watch will be the timing of FROPA. While ample forcing should be in place, a passage during the late evening and overnight period will not be able to take advantage of diurnal heating. Do think its worth noting, however, that sounding profiles continue to show ample CAPE (>1000 J/kg), 40+ knots of deep layer shear, and steep lapse rates. Thus, if storms can materialize, believe they will remain linear in nature and be capable of producing large hail and damaging winds. Depending on the orientation of the line compared to the environmental flow, also can't rule out the threat for isolated tornadoes. So, if you don't already, we encourage you to have multiple ways to receive warnings in the event that storms become strong to severe. .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday) Issued at 352 PM CDT Thu Apr 21 2022 Look for breezy southerly winds to continue Saturday, with gusts between 40 to 50 mph possible through the afternoon. Given that most of the region will remain near or ahead of the sfc trough, should also see another day of warm temperatures prevail, as highs soar into the low to mid 70s. As noted in the previous discussion, could see another round of showers and thunderstorms develop Saturday afternoon/evening, however this will largely depend on how far east the sfc trough advances and whether or not we can achieve sufficient destabilization. Similar to Friday, believe damaging winds and hail would be the primary hazards if storms were to materialize. Expect dry conditions to gradually return Sunday morning as the cold front pushes eastward. With winds shifting to the northwest, should see a notable drop in temperatures occur, as values only rise into the upper 40s to low 50s by Sunday afternoon. Otherwise, expect dry conditions to prevail for much of the upcoming week as upper level flow turns zonal. Temperatures during this time will also gradually warm, with values in the 40s to 50s Monday rising into the 60s to 70s by Wednesday. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Friday night) Issued at 1035 PM CDT Thu Apr 21 2022 Ceilings will gradually lower into the MVFR range tonight across the area with scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms developing - mainly from the Interstate 29 corridor and eastward. By daybreak on Friday ceilings will be into the IFR range, with showers and thunderstorms diminishing. With a developing low level jet, there will be periodic low level wind shear at all TAF sites for tonight into tomorrow morning. Southeasterly winds will remain gusty through the TAF period, with strongest winds on Friday afternoon and evening. There may be additional shower and thunderstorm development on Friday night, though this will most likely occur just past the end of this TAF period. && .FSD WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SD...NONE.
