Will change some things….Overall will be cooling temps on a few days in the short and middle term… We did warmup afew days but overall trended temps down a degree or two….
***CURRENT CONDITIONS***
At 1:00 PM we find all stations reporting Sunny to Mostly sunny skies…Temps range from the upper 50s to lower 60s….Winds are for the most part out of the South/Southeast from 5 to 13 MPH with some gusts up to 20 to 22 MPH...…
Satellite imagery show a few clouds trying to work into the area, overall most areas are sunny…More clouds building over Southwestern MN and over parts of ND/SD ….Also noted a few clouds in the sky here at the office.
***FAST FORECAST DISCUSSION***
Forecast problems…There are some that we will try to work out…For the most part ongoing forecast is in good shape… Have decided to warm temps a degree or two for today, and to slow showers and thunderstorms down by an hour or two.. Models have trended slower… We have bought into the slower solution….This will also allow for temps to be a degree or two warmer today as more sunshine is in the picture…This will also slow down the cold front passage for tomorrow… So will hold onto thunderstorm chances a little longer than previous thought… Have thought about pulling thunderstorm chances from Tuesday night also…However will let them ride for now..Will trim temps down for Sunday night /Monday along with Tuesday night lows will hack down a few degrees also… Long term models this late morning and early afternoon are so so in agreement.. With that said confidence levels are a little lower now…. Did warm a few days up, but also cooled a few days down….
