KEY MESSAGES

- Upper ridging will help provide warm conditions through Saturday.

- Hit-and-miss thunderstorm chances starting in the southwest this evening.

DISCUSSION

WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW: There is an interplay between the upper ridge and shortwave trough passages today and tomorrow. A shortwave trough this evening will bring a slight chance of a thunderstorm in Petroleum county from 23Z to 03Z Thursday. Then another wave tomorrow after 23Z that is expected to penetrate into central parts of the area. Then lingering showers and weak storms the rest of the night. Another shortwave trough with a bit more punch is expected on Friday. Near severe winds are expected with each of these waves. A more significant trough is expected to make its way in this weekend.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS: Made deviations to the PoPs by including HREF data.

Moderate confidence in the entire forecast.

AVIATION

LAST UPDATED: 1900Z.

FLIGHT CAT RANGE: VFR most of the time. MVFR tomorrow evening with thunderstorms.

DISCUSSION: Upper ridging will continue to keep precipitation from occurring today. Cannot guarantee there won't be turbulence though haha. There is low confidence on thunderstorms reaching KGGW after 01Z Friday as a shortwave trough tries to move in from the west, so MVFR conditions are possible.

WINDS: Light and variable becoming southeast at 8 to 16 knots after 18Z Thursday. KGGW will experience these southeast winds starting at 22Z today.

GGW WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES

None.
