KEY MESSAGES

- There is a chance for isolated strong thunderstorms to emerge early on Tuesday, and then again in the afternoon. There is a low chance for severe weather in the far northeast.

- Seasonably cool temperatures and several chances for showers and thunderstorms will continue through the end of the work week.

- Strong west winds Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday evening have helped bring about a Lake Wind Advisory for Fort Peck Lake.

DISCUSSION

WEATHER PATTERN OVERVIEW: After an upper level shortwave ridge moves out tonight, an upper trough is expected to be overhead from Monday through the end of the week. This will keep the pattern active for winds, showers, and scattered thunderstorms through the end of the work week. A Lake Wind Advisory is in effect for Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday. There will likely be an extension on this product to go through Thursday evening on an upcoming forecast update. A low level jet is expected to kick in tonight, so this will aid in some low level moisture sneaking its way up into the eastern part of the area tonight. Then a passing trough will aid in enough lift to generate some scattered thunderstorms in the south and far northeast in the afternoon. Isolated strong to severe storms are part of the story in the northeast after 2 PM Tuesday, and any storms that form will quickly move into North Dakota.

For Wednesday, the synoptic trough will bring mostly rain showers and weak thunderstorms. These conditions aided by strong winds will bring a chance for gusts above 50 mph in the afternoon. These conditions are expected again on Thursday. The active pattern continues on Friday, with showers and storm chances being a bit lower than the previous two days. In addition, the upper trough pattern will most likely maintain seasonably cool temperatures.

FORECAST CONFIDENCE & DEVIATIONS: The only deviation was to the PoPs through 1 AM Wednesday to increase them and expand them a bit, mainly for Tuesday morning.

There is high confidence in isolated to scattered showers and storms occurring each day through Friday.

There is high confidence in the Lake Wind Advisory for Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday, and in an extension of this product happening through Thursday evening eventually.

There is low to moderate confidence of a wetting rain occurring for various parts of the area through Wednesday evening.

There is moderate confidence of isolated gusts over 50 mph occurring on Wednesday, and low confidence on Thursday.

There is high confidence the upper trough will remain over the area through at least the end of the work week.
