NWS Forecaster Discussion
724 fxus65 kggw 220002 aaa afdggw Area forecast discussion...updated National Weather Service Glasgow Montana 502 PM MST Sat Nov 21 2009 Updated to expire lake Wind Advisory Short term...for northeast Montana...tonight through Monday... current GOES water vapor imagery reveals a longwave trough now in place over the western United States. The leading shortwave trough has now lifted over Saskatchewan and has drug a cold front through northeast Montana into the Dakotas. A tight surface pressure gradient has developed over northeast Montana in the wake of these features and combined with cold air advection to produce a strong west wind. A secondary frontal system and associated vorticity maxima is currently dropping southeast over southeast Alberta and southwest Saskatchewan. The vertical ascent associated with this system is combining with diurnal heating and creating a few snow showers in Canada. As these showers move south they encounter a very dry airmass and hence at this point it appear to be primarily virga along the western portion of the hi-line. This secondary frontal system will cross the the local area this evening. The showers should weaken and begin to dissipate after sunset...but there may be enough upper forcing to maintain a few weak showers into this evening. Therefore...isolated flurries were added to the northwest zones this evening although its main affect will be increased cloud cover across the north and it will also maintain the wind through the evening. Albeit much weaker as low-level lapse rates lessen after sunset...so the current timing of the lake Wind Advisory should suffice. Shortwave ridging begins after midnight...so cloud cover should quickly decrease along with the wind. Minimum temperatures will be seasonally cool across most of the region. Cloud cover will begin to increase Sunday afternoon as another shortwave trough dives into the Pacific northwest. This trough will traverse across the local area Sunday night and early Monday. The upper dynamics with this system are decent...but the lower portion of the atmosphere will remain dry...so it will be difficult to get much moisture to the surface. Therefore...only slight chance probability of precipitation are forecast with precipitation type as light snow. Temperatures will be cooler Sunday and Monday...but still above seasonal averages. Ajz Long term...Monday night through Saturday... GFS and ec models generally agree through Friday. Forecast is fairly dry for the long term with a series of passing shortwave troughs and ridges. Outside chance for a rain or snow shower Tuesday or Tuesday night as a somewhat dry clipper-like system drops into the central US. Most significant feature in the long term is ridging Wednesday into Thursday...which should give clear weather and above normal temperatures for Thanksgiving Day. Ridge breaks down with a sharper trough in the ec model...which suggests a higher chance for some snow on Saturday than seen in the GFS. Martin Previous long term discussion...shortwave trough drops southeast out of Saskatchewan during the day Tuesday and may bring a slight chance of rain or snow. This fast moving system will have limited moisture with it. An upper ridge builds into the area on Wednesday and will bring warm and dry weather through Thanksgiving day for sure. Models have some differences on track of a shortwave that moves inland from the Pacific on Friday. European model (ecmwf) takes the system south of the area while the GFS brings it across Montana. Either way...a cold front will affect the forecast area on Friday with cooler temperatures expected next weekend. Will keep the forecast dry for the most part for now. Forrester && Aviation... VFR conditions. Strong west winds this afternoon should abate after sunset...decreasing to around 10 kts. Winds turn southeasterly on Sunday up to around 15 kts. Mostly clear to scattered skies on Sunday with ceilings lowering out west Sunday evening. Martin && Glasgow watches/warnings/advisories...none. && $$ Weather.Gov/Glasgow
