Area forecast discussion, Jun 23, 12:00 PM CST, 6 hours 20 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE BISMARCK ND 100 PM CDT SUN JUN 23 2002 UPPER LOW OVER NORTHEAST MONTANA WILL BRING US ONE MORE DAY OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL. WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL BE IN NORTHERN SOUTH DAKOTA PROVIDING LIFT...ALONG WITH LARGE SCALE ASCENT WITH THE UPPER SYSTEM...MAINLY IN THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE STATE. THE ARRIVAL OF SOME H5 RIDGING MONDAY...ALONG WITH SOME DEGREE OF LOW LEVEL DRYING WOULD SUGGEST A SUNNY DRY DAY. HOWEVER...PROG SOUNDINGS INDICATE 1000+ CAPES WITH A CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURE OF 88 DEGREES AT BISMARCK...IF WE CAN HOLD A 60 DEWPOINT (RECENT RAINS MAY INCREASE EVAPOTRANSPIRATION). ETA AND NGM MOS SUGGEST THAT BOTH CRITERIA WILL BE MET...SO I WILL INCLUDE A CHANCE OF AFTERNOON/EVENING THUNDERSTORMS IN THE CENTRAL...BUT NOT IN THE WEST...WHERE DEWPOINTS WILL DROP INTO THE MID 50S...PRECLUDING CONVECTION. THE LONGER RANGE FEATURES MAJOR H5 RIDGING...WHICH WILL LEAD TO SOME HOT WEATHER FINALLY. WEAK RIPPLES IN THE RIDGE MAY BE ENOUGH FOR ISOLATED NOCTURNAL THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. .BIS...NONE. RSL
