AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DULUTH MN
1045 AM CDT WED JUN 26 2013

.UPDATE...

THE FOCUS FOR THIS UPDATE IS THE POTENTIAL OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THIS EVENING. THE ONLY REMAINING SHOWERS AND
STORMS AT THE TIME OF THIS UPDATE ARE NEAR A VORTEX MOVING
NORTHEAST NEAR IN NORTHERN ST. LOUIS COUNTY. REDEVELOPMENT ALONG
AND AHEAD OF TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE MOVING THROUGH THE NORTHLAND
TODAY IS LIKELY...AT LEAST IN NW WISCONSIN AND THE MINNESOTA
ARROWHEAD. THE HRRR HAS BEEN CONSISTENTLY INDICATING A BAND OF
STORMS FORMING IN NW WISCONSIN BY EARLY THIS AFTERNOON AND EXITING
MID TO LATE THIS AFTERNOON. I ALTERED PCPN CHANCES TO REFLECT THE
HIGHEST CHANCES ACROSS THE EASTERN FORECAST AREA...WHILE LOWERED
CHANCES ACROSS THE WEST. WHILE THERE SHOULD BE A GENERAL
DECREASING CHANCE OF PCPN FROM WEST TO EAST THIS AFTERNOON INTO
THIS EVENING...SOME MODELS ARE INDICATING SOME SHOWERS AND STORMS
MOVING INTO THE WESTERN FORECAST AREA FROM NW MINNESOTA THIS
EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...SO I KEPT LOW CHANCES OVER JUST ABOUT ALL
OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH AT LEAST THIS EVENING. IT STILL
APPEARS WE COULD SEE SOME STRONG...MAYBE SEVERE STORMS...ACROSS NW
WISCONSIN. WHILE THERE MAY BE LOTS OF CAPE...WITH THE NAM12
INDICATING AT LEAST 4000 J/KG OF MOST UNSTABLE CAPE ALONG THE CAPE
AXIS...THE LIMITING FACTOR FOR SEVERE WEATHER WILL LIKELY BE WIND
SHEAR. THE NAM12 IS INDICATING LOW BULK SHEAR...LESS THAN 20 KNOTS
FOR 0-6KM...ALONG THE CAPE AXIS. HOWEVER...WE WILL NEED TO WATCH
CLOSELY FOR DEVELOPMENT AND SEE IF THE NAM12 WIND SHEAR HOLDS
TRUE. IF THERE IS MORE WIND SHEAR THAN THE NAM12 SUGGESTS...THEN
SOME STORMS COULD MORE EASILY BECOME SEVERE.

AS FAR AS TEMPERATURES TODAY...THE LATEST MOS GUIDANCE IS MUCH
WARMER IN SOME AREAS COMPARED TO THE PREVIOUS FORECAST. I INCREASED
TEMPERATURES BY UP TO SEVERAL DEGREES...NOTABLE ACROSS INLAND NW
WISCONSIN.

AVIATION...
BAND OF WEAKENING CONVECTION CURRENTLY SWEEPING ACROSS THE
TERMINALS THIS MORNING. LINGERING STORMS BRINGING IFR TO MVFR CIGS
AND VSBYS AT THEY MOVE THROUGH EACH LOCATION. KHYR...WHICH HAS
BEEN IN THE CLEAR ALL NIGHT HAS DEVELOPED SOME MVFR FOG WHICH
SHOULD CLEAR BY 13Z. KDLH ALSO DEVELOPED SOME EARLY MORNING
FOG...WHICH SHOULD ALSO CLEAR IN NEXT COUPLE HOURS. ADDITIONAL
THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT IS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON...MAINLY FOR
KINL...KHIB...KDLH AND KHYR. TIMING AND LOCATIONS UNCERTAIN SO
HAVE GONE WITH ONLY VCTS FOR NOW...BUT WILL HAVE TO REFINE WITH
LATER ISSUANCES. BY LATE AFTERNOON WEAK COLD FRONT TO MOVE THROUGH
THE AREA AND TURN WINDS TO WEST...ALSO ENDING TSRA CHANCES.   LE

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 316 AM CDT WED JUN 26 2013/

SHORT TERM...SHORT TERM CONCERNS IS MOVEMENT OF THUNDERSTORM
COMPLEX IN NW MN THIS MORNING AND EFFECT ON FORECAST AREA. SECOND
CONCERN IS TSTM CHANCES.

CURRENT SURFACE ANALYSIS INDICATES AREA OF THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS NW
MN MOVING EAST-NORTHEAST. CAPES RANGE FROM 2500-4000 WITH THE
STORMS WITH THE STRONGEST STORMS JUST EAST OF FARGO. SHEAR IS
WEAKER TOWARD THE WESTERN AREAS OF THE FORECAST AREA BUT CAPES ARE
STILL ON THE HIGH SIDE ALONG WITH PLENTY OF MOISTURE. THE PRECIP
AREA HAS STARTED TO CLIP NW KOOCHCHING COUNTY AND WILL SPREAD EAST
EARLY THIS MORNING. THE PRECIP WILL DECREASE IN INTENSITY AND
COVERAGE AS IT MOVES THROUGH NE MN.

THE NEXT CONCERN FOR THE SHORT TERM IS THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT
THIS AFTERNOON. THERE WILL BE SOME DEBRIS CLOUDS LEFT OVER FROM
THIS MORNING'S STORMS ACROSS NW MN. THE QUESTION FOR THE FORECAST
IS HOW MUCH SUN WILL BE SEEN LATE THIS MORNING AND THIS AFTERNOON.
BASED ON CURRENT TRENDS...THERE COULD BE SOME SUN THIS AFTERNOON
ACROSS EASTERN PORTIONS OF NE MN AND ALL NW WI. THIS WILL INCREASE
THE INSTABILITY THIS AFTERNOON OVER THAT REGION SO WILL KEEP
CURRENT POPS FOR TSTMS. SPC HAS THE SOUTHERN TIER OF NW WI
COUNTIES IN A SLIGHT RISK AREA FOR THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT.
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE WESTERN PORTION OF MN AREA
TONIGHT ENDING THE PRECIP TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. THE ONLY
EXCEPTION WILL BE OVER THE ARROWHEAD WHERE THE TROUGH WILL KEEP
THE POSSIBILITY OF THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THAT REGION THROUGH
THURSDAY.

LONG TERM...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY
THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY WE WILL HAVE A STATIONARY FRONT DRAPED
ACROSS THE ARROWHEAD REGION. THIS WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH SOME
CHANNELED VORT MAXES IN THE STRONG NORTHWEST FLOW OVER THE
REGION...ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER THE EAST
COAST AND THE STRONG RIDGE OVER THE ROCKIES.  THIS WARRANTS SOME
HIGH CHANCE TO LOW END LIKELY POPS OVER THE ARROWHEAD REGION
THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...ALONG WITH COOLER FRIDAY HIGHS IN THE
LOW 70S.  ELSEWHERE HIGHS SHOULD RISE INTO THE MID TO UPPER 70S.

FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY THE FRONT IS PUSHED SOUTH AS A COLD FRONT
ALONG WITH A MORE VIGOROUS SHORTWAVE THAT DIGS DOWN ACROSS MN AND
WI.  THIS SHIFTS OUR POPS SOUTH ACROSS THE REGION...HAVE HAVE PUT
MAINLY CHANCE POPS THROUGH THE PERIOD.  SATURDAY LOOKS COOLER WITH
HIGHS ONLY IN THE LOW TO MID 70S...DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH SUNSHINE
CAN GET THROUGH.

SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY AND INTO MONDAY WE MOVE INTO A DRY
PERIOD AS THE SHORTWAVE THAT MOVED THROUGH ON SATURDAY DIGS SOUTH
AND LEAVES US WITH SOME RIDGING ALOFT AND WEAK RIDGING AT THE
SURFACE AS WELL.  THE SHORTWAVE EVENTUALLY CUTS OFF OVER THE DEEP
SOUTH STATES...AND TOGETHER WITH THE RIDGE OUT WEST REALLY SLOWS
DOWN OUR UPPER LEVEL PATTERN.  THUS...WHILE I DO HAVE SOME SMALL
CHANCE POPS OUT FOR LATER MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...THEY ARE PRETTY
MINOR AND CONFIDENCE IS NOT TERRIBLY HIGH.  HIGHS SHOULD RISE UP
INTO THE UPPER 70S TO NEAR 80.
