.DISCUSSION...

HIGH PRESSURE OVER NORTHERN MINNESOTA WILL POWER SOUTHERLY WINDS
ACROSS NORTH DAKOTA TODAY. WINDS WILL BACK SLIGHTLY TO SOUTHEASTERLY
WITH DECOUPLING AROUND 7 PM CDT. OTHERWISE...AN IMPULSE OVER SOUTH
DAKOTA IS CAUSING SCATTERED SHOWERS ACROSS SOUTH CENTRAL AND
SOUTHEAST NORTH DAKOTA. THESE SHOWERS WILL SLOWLY SLIDE NORTHWARD...
BUT PROBABLY WILL NOT SURVIVE THE TRIP TO YOUR SITE. ANOTHER
DISTURBANCE IS APPROACHING FROM THE WEST...WHICH HAS A BETTER
CHANCE FOR FIRING A FEW ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON
ACROSS THE NORTH.
