NWS Forecaster Discussion
032 fxus63 kbis 212040 afdbis Area forecast discussion National Weather Service Bismarck ND 240 PM CST Sat Nov 21 2009 Short term...tonight through Tuesday night... Models start out in good agreement but subtle differences begin to appear by Sunday night leading to reduced forecast confidence. The biggest forecast concerns are chances of precipitation Sunday night through Tuesday night. Currently...there is a surface low moving through eastern Saskatchewan towards Lake Winnipeg in Manitoba. The associated cold front has pushed into western North Dakota through Dickinson and will continue moving east tonight. A strong pressure gradient and mixing of the lower atmosphere behind the cold front have caused strong west-northwesterly winds. Ahead of the front...the strongest pressure gradient has already pushed into eastern North Dakota. The cold front is forecast to be along a line from Minot to Bismarck by 00 UTC Sunday and near Jamestown by 06 UTC...and the atmosphere should decouple this evening and end the gusty winds. An upper level trough associated with the aforementioned low pressure system moves through North Dakota tonight and short wave ridging moves through the region in its wake. Ridging is short-lived as another disturbance approaches for Sunday night into Monday. The 12 UTC GFS and European model (ecmwf) begin to disagree at this point with the path of the trough. The European model (ecmwf) drops this trough farther to the south into Nebraska and paints precipitation across mainly southeastern North Dakota tonight into Monday morning. The GFS moves the upper level low through South Dakota and shows some light precipitation across western and central North Dakota. With models split on the path of this system...gridded forecasts have only a slight chance of precipitation for Sunday night. The exception is in far southwest North Dakota where precipitation chances are slightly higher due to model/ensemble overlap there. Guidance supports more disturbances moving through the northern plains through Tuesday night...justifying chances of precipitation and slightly cooler temperatures. That said...temperatures should remain above average through most of the period. Long term...Wednesday through Saturday night... The long term begins Wednesday with the models depicting a low over the middle-Mississippi Valley/Great Lakes area and dry northwesterly flow over North Dakota...with ridging to the west. The GFS keeps this upper level ridge axis to our west until Friday...then brings the next upper level shortwave across southern Saskatchewan and Manitoba. The European model is faster with the upper level ridge axis...but then develops the next shortwave farther south near Colorado and the 4 corners area by Saturday. Thus will keep the forecast dry throughout the extended period. The upper level ridging on Thursday - Thanksgiving day - will bring mild weather to North Dakota. Expecting average to above average temperatures...with morning lows in the upper teens to lower 20s and highs from the middle 30s east to upper 40s southwest. In fact...most of the extended should see highs 35 to 45 for most days and lows in the teens and 20s. Averages for this time of year are generally highs in the lower 30s and lows in the teens. && Aviation... A surface low over Saskatchewan is forecast to move eastward into Manitoba tonight. A trough extending southward from the low will continue pushing eastward across the Dakotas and into Minnesota by around 06z. Expect trough to move through kbis and kmot by around 00z and kjms after 03z. Gusty south winds ahead of the trough...with gusts to 30kts at kjms...and gusty west winds behind it through 02z...then wind speeds decreasing. Expect mainly high cirrus clouds with scattered middle clouds 10000-15000 feet. Some scattered clouds 3000-5000 feet moving into the state after 10z. Lighter southwest winds on Sunday. && Bis watches/warnings/advisories... none. && $$ Synopsis/short term...DC/scheck aviation...DC/jv long term...jv
