Area Forecast Discussion For Western SD and Northeastern WY National Weather Service Rapid City SD 1058 AM MDT Wed Jun 19 2019 .DISCUSSION...(Today Through Tuesday) Issued at 333 AM MDT Wed Jun 19 2019 Current upper level analysis has broad flat trof over the northern CONUS with a compact shortwave across eastern Montana. Skies are mostly cloudy across the Northern Plains with a broken band of showers across the central Dakotas. At the surface, weak low pressure is located across northwest SD with a frontal boundary extending east into southern Minnesota. Temperatures at 3am across the forecast area are in the 50s and 60s with light southerly winds. Upper shortwave across eastern Montana will slowly shift east across far northern SD through this morning. This wave combined with the surface low and frontal boundary will likely keep showers and few thunderstorms going through much of the day across far northern SD into central SD. Further south and west, a break in precip is expected until early afternoon. Then some widely scattered showers and storms are expected, especially over the Black Hills area. There will be a little better chance for some stronger storms late this afternoon into this evening as modest instability develops and shear becomes more favorable for organized storms, especially from northeast WY to northwest SD. Another surface low and weak cold front moves through late tonight, with drier conditions expected behind it through much of Thursday morning. Upper flow becomes a little more southwesterly late Thursday with another round of showers and thunderstorms possible into Thursday night associated with a strong upper low crossing the Northern Rockies. This upper low will track slowly east-northeast into south central Canada through Sunday. This will likely bring more showers and a few storms at times each day through Sunday. Most of the instability will be pushed south and east of the area with previous cold front, so chances for stronger storms look minimal at best through the weekend. Temperatures will also remain below average through the weekend. The rest of the forecast period looks somewhat drier and a bit warmer as a secondary system tracks mostly south of the region later in the weekend and weak ridging is progged to develop over the high plains early next week. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS Through 18Z Thursday) Issued At 1057 AM MDT Wed Jun 19 2019 VFR conditions are expected through this afternoon. Thunderstorms will develop across northeastern Wyoming late this afternoon, spreading into western SD this evening/overnight. IFR conditions will be possible with the thunderstorms. && .UNR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... SD...None. WY...None. && DISCUSSION...15 AVIATION...Pojorlie
