DISCUSSION

STARTING TO SEE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING ACROSS
SOUTHWEST/SOUTH CENTRAL SD AS NEXT MID-LEVEL PIECE OF ENERGY BEGINS
AFFECTING THE NORTHERN PLAINS. MLCAPE VALUES ARE GENERALLY LESS THAN
1000 J/KG CURRENTLY ACROSS THE SOUTHWEST CWA, AND FORECAST TO STAY
PRETTY MUCH NEAR OR BELOW 1500 J/KG INTO THE EVENING HOURS. OTHER
SEVERE PARAMETERS ARE SOMEWHAT LIMITED, INCLUDING BULK SHEAR LESS
THAN 30 KNOTS. THE 18Z HRRR, ALONG WITH THE 12Z HREF REFLECTIVITY
ENSEMBLE PAINTBALL ALL SUGGEST BEST PRECIP CHANCES THIS
EVENING/OVERNIGHT LIE ACROSS CENTRAL/SOUTH CENTRAL SD EASTWARD INTO
SOUTHEAST/EAST CENTRAL SD, POSSIBLY ALONG THE FSD/ABR CWA LINE.
CONSTRUCTED POPS THIS WAY THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS, WITH THE
NORTHEAST CWA LIKELY SEEING MOSTLY DRY CONDITIONS. THERE ARE SOME
SIGNALS FOR HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL TO KEEP AN EYE ON, MAINLY OVER THE
SOUTHWEST CWA, WITH SOME TRAINING FEATURES SHOWING UP ON VARIOUS
CAMS. HIGHER-END QPF SOLUTIONS INDICATE AS MUCH AS 2 INCHES POSSIBLE
ALONG THE I-90 CORRIDOR INTO THIS EVENING/OVERNIGHT.
JUST ENOUGH LINGERING INSTABILITY PRESENT ON WEDNESDAY TO PERHAPS
ALLOW FOR AT LEAST ISOLATED COVERAGE OF SHOWERS/STORMS, WHICH SOME
CAMS ARE SUGGESTING. POPS AT THIS TIME HAVE LOWERING PRECIP CHANCES
THROUGH THE DAY AND INTO THE NIGHTTIME HOURS WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH
MORE OF AN INFLUENCE OF THE GLANCING SURFACE HIGH MOVING TOWARDS THE
GREAT LAKES.
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY STILL SHOW BELOW NORMAL TEMPS IN THE 70S, WITH
LOWER DEWPOINTS IN THE 50S TO AROUND 60 DEGREES. PRECIP CHANCES
APPEAR LIMITED DURING THIS TIME AS WELL, AS WE'LL AWAIT THE WEEKEND
BEFORE MORE HEAT AND HUMIDITY AND RESULTING INSTABILITY TRY TO MOVE
BACK INTO THE REGION.
