Area forecast discussion 
National Weather Service Grand Forks ND 
311 PM CDT Sat Jul 5 2008 


Short term... 
main forecast challenge is precipitation. When looking at the latest 
surface analysis...an area of low pressure extends through central 
ND and South Dakota. Kmvx continues to show some developing storms in central 
ND up into S mb. When comparing the models...the models remain in 
pretty good agreement...so ended up using a model blend for the 
forecast. 


Convection continues to try to develop along and ahead of the cold 
front...with middle level cap still preventing convection from getting 
fully organized yet. Latest msas analysis show lifted indices to -8 
and a surface moisture flux convergence maximum extending through 
central into east ND. Dewpoints have risen into the middle to upper 60s 
over the area. The cap is expected to erode this evening as the 
shortwave...evident on the on WV imagery...moves into central ND. 
With surface based convective available potential energy up to 3000...severe is anticipated...with 
explosive development possible if the cap erodes quickly enough. 
Therefore...kept severe wording in forecast...with damaging winds and 
large hail the main severe weather threats. 


The front exits the area by Sun morning. A high pressure pressure 
system quickly moves through on sun...so kept the forecast dry. 
Then for Sun night...another low pressure system moves out of 
Canada into the North Plains...bringing the next chance for thunderstorms 
to the area for Sun night into Tuesday. 


Long term (wed-sat)... 
models initialized well and are in general agreement so will go 
with a blended solution at this time. Models show a progressive pattern 
with another system crossing the forecast area on Friday. Expect a rebound of 
temperatures and moisture ahead of the system increasing the chances for 
more -shra/-tsra. Otherwise...no significant changes are 
anticipated at this time. 


&& 


Aviation... 
VFR conditions through the period with mention of thunderstorms and rain coinciding with 
passage of cold front. Winds may be erratic in vicinity of stronger 
storms. 


&& 


Fgf watches/warnings/advisories... 
ND...none. 
Minnesota...none.
