AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD 224 AM CDT THU SEP 8 2005 .DISCUSSION... CONVECTION FOUND ACROSS NORTHERN CWA EARLY THIS MORNING...AND LIFTING NORTHEAST TOWARDS BETTER UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT PER 300-500 QG FORCING. STILL NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION FOR FURTHER DEVELOPMENT SOUTHEAST ALONG MID LEVEL BOUNDARY...SO WILL MAINTAIN FAIRLY HIGH POPS NORTH OF I90 AND EAST OF ABOUT I29 AFTER 12Z. OTHERWISE...UPPER LEVELS BECOME MUCH MORE UNFAVORABLE FOR CONVECTION THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AND BETTER MID LEVEL BOUNDARY SHIFTS NORTH AND EAST. SO...LOW POPS IN THE EAST THIS AFTERNOON AND NO MENTION TONIGHT ANYWHERE SEEMS REASONABLE. NEXT BETTER CHANCE FOR THUNDERSTORMS LOOKS TO BE ON MONDAY AS DECENT UPPER LEVEL WAVE MOVES NORTHEAST ACROSS THE WESTERN HIGH PLAINS AND TAIL END OF FORCING TRACKS ACROSS CWA. NOT A REAL HIGH POP TYPE SET UP JUST YET...BUT MAY BUMP POPS A LITTLE OVER NORTHWEST TIER OF COUNTIES. WITH STRONG HIGH ACROSS SOUTHEAST U.S. WILL ALSO NEED TO WATCH OUT FOR ANY WEAK SUBTROPICAL DISTURBANCES THAT COULD SET SOMETHING OFF AHEAD OF STRONGER ENERGY OVER THE CENTRAL U.S. TEMPERATURES NEXT FEW DAYS A LITTLE TRICKY. NORTHERN TIER OF COUNTIES HAS HAD A DECENT AMOUNT OF RAIN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS...AND THIS MAY SUPPRESS TEMPERATURES A LITTLE FOR OUR UPCOMING WARM UP INTO THE WEEKEND. OVERALL...NO BIG CHANGES TO FORECAST TEMPERATURES. && .FSD WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SD...NONE. MN...NONE. IA...NONE. NE...NONE. && 08
