AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE ABERDEEN SD 145 PM CDT SUN JUN 26 2005 .SHORT TERM...TONITE THROUGH WEDNESDAY NITE MAIN CONCERN IN THE SHORT RANGE IS TONIGHT. OLD OUTFLOW BOUNDARY AND SYNOPTIC SCALE WARM EXPECTED TO PERSIST THROUGH THE EVENING ACROSS THE NORTHERN 1/3 OF THE CWA. PARAMETERS ACROSS THESE AREAS LOOK VERY FAVORABLE FOR SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS AND POSSIBLY EVEN TORNADOES. HAVE HELD COVERAGE OF STORMS TO SCATTERED BASED ON MODEL EMPHASIS FOR MORE WIDESPREAD ACTIVITY OVER NORTH DAKOTA. HOWEVER WILL GO HIGH SCATTERED POP. MORE ACTIVITY LIKELY ON MONDAY AS BOUNDARY SETTLES SOUTH INTO CENTRAL SOUTH DAKOTA AND ANOTHER WAVE IN THE SOUTHWEST FLOW APPROACHES THE REGION. BEST CHANCES LIKELY A LITTLE SOUTH OF CWA. NEXT NICE LOOKING UPPER TROF COMES OUT LATE TUESDAY...AND THIS SHOULD FINALLY END THE STRING OF DEEP WESTERN TROFS LIFTING INTO NORTHERN PLAINS. TUESDAY MAY WELL BE A VERY ACTIVE DAY BUT DID NOTICE THAT MID LEVEL WARMTH HAS BEEN KICKED UP A NOTCH IN THE LATEST MODEL RUNS...SO FOR NOW ONLY SCATTERED POPS IN THE FORECAST. CHANGES TO TEMPERATURES WERE MOSTLY MINOR. .LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY FLOW FLATTENS OUT FOR THE MEDIUM RANGE. AND CANT RULE OUT A RIDGE RIDER S/W KICKING OFF SOMETHING...BUT AT THIS TIME RANGE FINDING IT VERY HARD TO PINPOINT ACTIVITY...THUS FORECAST WILL REMAIN DRY. TEMPERATURES MODIFIED WHERE APPROPRIATE. && .ABR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SD...NONE. MN...NONE. &&
