Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Grand Forks ND
637 PM CDT Sun Jul 9 2023

.UPDATE...
Issued at 637 PM CDT Sun Jul 9 2023

Once again, more showers and thunderstorms are developing across
the area this afternoon. Monitoring the potential for some to
possibly be strong/severe, but that chance is on the low side
(~10-20%). Forecast remains on track.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday night)
Issued at 310 PM CDT Sun Jul 9 2023

Conditional storm threat still expected for the remainder of the
afternoon into the evening, with much of the instability occurring
ahead of the forcing/main focus for storm development. Main frontal
boundary situated across the southern Manitoba with some
showers/embedded storms to the north/east of Winnipeg along and
ahead of the front. This boundary will continue to drop south into
northern/northeastern portions of the area by early this evening.
There may be a limited window for some development along and ahead
of the front tapping into the instability and 45-50kt shear to have
some strong to potentially severe storms. Otherwise the majority of
development expected behind the front with limited instability so
expect an area of showers and an embedded storm into mid/late
evening in the far northeast.

Further south, still have some CU development across the south in
the vicinity of WAA aloft. Strongest push of WAA into central ND
where CU field more developed and even a few returns on radar near
BIS. Additional weak CU development near the ND/SD border in the far
south and toward west central MN. Therefore still monitoring the
potential for an isolated storm to develop in the far south where
instability is greater, yet bulk shear remains more limited. Any
storm that does develop has the potential to stay somewhat organized
with the potential for marginally severe hail or wind gusts.

As the frontal boundary pushes through the forecast area Monday,
could still see a few lingering showers early Monday, but diurnal
development along the boundary toward mid-day possible across the
central/south, with the boundary to have moved through the area by
early evening. Little instability to be expected with this activity
so expect mainly showers. Dry and cool conditions then expected into
Monday night, with 850 temps dropping to around +5C therefore expect
chilly for July overnight lows into the 40s across much of the area.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday)
Issued at 310 PM CDT Sun Jul 9 2023

- Below average temperature pattern expected to begin the week, with
temperatures transitioning then moderating toward seasonal into
next weekend.

- The pattern keeps occasional shower chances in place from Tuesday
through next weekend. Slight better chances for showers Tuesday,
however actual chances for wetting precipitation (0.1"+) are less
than 20%. Thunderstorm chances remain even lower, and the
probability for severe weather impacts is very low.

Persistent westerly to northwesterly flow pattern aloft expected
through the extended range as the main push of warmer air to remain
shunted to the south as the forecast area will be dominated by a
large upper level trough wobbling across central Canada. A series of
weak upper level waves will impact the area in the flow pattern
setting up a pesky pattern of occasional showers through the week.
Periods of weak instability will suggest potential for some embedded
storm chances, however widespread thunderstorm activity chances will
be low along with the a very low threat of severe weather through
the week. Coldest air aloft in place Monday into Tuesday, with
gradual warming aloft through the week. 850 temps climb back into
the mid teens celsius Tuesday into and Wednesday and remain in the
mid teens through the week. Thermal ridge to build back into the
area toward Sunday with 850 temps returning to the upper teens to
near 20C.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday evening)
Issued at 637 PM CDT Sun Jul 9 2023

VFR conditions for the period, with a wind shift imminent as a
cold front moves south through the area. Winds will remain around
10kts all night, with the exception of in the MN trees (BJI). They
will increase to 10-15kts Monday afternoon with gusts up to 25 kts
possible. TS and SH remain a threat both this afternoon and Monday
afternoon for all TAF sites.
