Areas affected…Northern High Plains
Concerning…Heavy rainfall…Flash flooding possible
Valid 232334Z – 240534Z
Summary…Thunderstorms developing off a trough in the lee of the
Wyoming Rockies will continue to shift northeast along a trough
toward South Dakota into the evening. Given the warm and humid
airmass flash flooding is possible.
Discussion…A warm and humid airmass along a trough extending
northeast from current activity in eastern WY will draw heavy
thunderstorms toward western SD and southwest ND into the evening.
PWATs are 2 standard deviations above normal and SBCAPE is
sufficient for rapid development at 3000 J/Kg. A strengthening low
level jet up the Plains will continue to provide moisture through
the night. Flash flood guidance is 1 to 2 inches per hour across
the risk area. Rain rates of this magnitude are possible as the
activity continues to develop into the evening hours.
This activity may continue into the overnight and an updated
discussion for further flash flood risk may be needed.
