andyhb Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Figured the old thread could be laid to bed now. Parts of Saskatchewan aren't looking too bad on Tuesday as a strong shortwave finally ejects eastward after being hung up on the coast for days...00z NAM and GFS are both catching the potential.

on_wx Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 The Prairie Storm Prediction Centre has issued a moderate risk for tornadoes and very large hail today for Alberta & Saskatchewan. They also have a moderate out on the day 2 indicating a high risk may be needed for long track tornadoes and large hail. I just accidentally discovered there is a storm prediction centre on the prairies that issues day one and day two convective outlooks. They hide this stuff well. SIGNIFICANT WEATHER DISCUSSION ISSUED BY THE PRAIRIE AND ARCTIC STORM PREDICTION CENTRE OF ENVIRONMENT CANADA AT 7:00 AM CDT MONDAY JUNE 25 2012. THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING OVER SOUTHEASTERN ALBERTA AND SOUTHWESTERN SASKATCHEWAN. THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS TONIGHT OVER MUCH OF SOUTHERN SASKATCHEWAN. WATCHES, WARNINGS, AND STATEMENTS...NONE AT THIS TIME. OVERVIEW...THE 00Z UPPER ANALYSIS SHOWED A RIDGE OVER THE CENTRAL PRAIRIES AND A POTENT SOUTH-SOUTHWEST FLOW EMANATING FROM A DEEP TROUGH OFF THE COAST OF CALIFORNIA. THERE WAS ANOTHER DEEP TROUGH FROM THE EASTERN ARCTIC TO THE EASTERN SEABOARD OF THE US. THE 06Z SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWED A LOW OVER MONTANA, ONE OVER NORTHERN QUEBEC AND ONE OVER ALASKA. A RATHER MOIST AIRMASS WAS IN PLACE OVER SOUTHWESTERN SASKATCHEWAN AND SOUTHEASTERN ALBERTA, WITH POCKETS OF SURFACE DEWPOINTS IN THE UPPER TEENS. DISCUSSION...A PAIR OF POTENT SEVERE WEATHER DAYS IS POISED TO OCCUR OVER THE REGION. HANG ON TO YOUR HATS. SYNOPTIC-SCALE AND CONVECTION-ALLOWING MODELS ARE COMING INTO RATHER GOOD AGREEMENT THAT A SEVERE WEATHER EPISODE WILL OCCUR LATER TODAY IN SOUTHWESTERN SASKATCHEWAN AND SOUTHEAST ALBERTA. THE MOIST AIRMASS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE AND NOT GET MIXED OUT, AS REGIONAL SOUNDINGS FROM 25/00Z SHOWED DEEP MOISTURE FOR THIS PART OF THE WORLD. THIS WILL LEAD TO A BIG AREA OF MLCAPES IN EXCESS OF 2000 J/KG. THE STRONG FLOW ALOFT IS ALREADY IN PLACE AND WILL STAY AT ITS CURRENT STRENGTH OR INCREASE THROUGHOUT THE DAY, PROVIDING PLENTY OF SHEAR. THE ONGOING OVERNIGHT THUNDERSTORMS WILL HELP TO FOCUS AREAS MORE SPECIFICALLY, BUT A WARM FRONT SHOULD BE IN PLACE FROM ABOUT LETHBRIDGE TO KINDERSLEY, AND THIS WILL LIKELY FOCUS CONVECTIVE INITIATION THIS AFTERNOON. THIS SHOULD ALSO ALIGN WITH THE EDGE OF THE CAP, SO STORMS' INFLOW SHOULD REMAIN UNPOLLUTED. AS A RESULT, SUPERCELLS SHOULD QUICKLY EVOLVE ONCE STORMS DO BEGIN. LARGE HAIL IS THE PRIMARY THREAT WITH ANY STORMS IN THIS CORRIDOR, BUT A FEW TORNADOES CANNOT BE RULED OUT, GIVEN VEERING, ALBEIT, RELATIVELY WEAK, FLOW. STORMS WILL LIKELY INCREASE IN NUMBER AND COVERAGE DURING THE EVENING, EVENTUALLY CONSOLIDATING INTO A SQUALL LINE THAT MAY REACH ALL THE WAY TO THE MANITOBA BORDER BY TUESDAY MORNING, WITH AN ATTENDANT RISK FOR SEVERE HAIL AND WIND GUSTS. THERE IS A MODERATE RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ON TUESDAY OVER PORTIONS OF SOUTHERN SASKATCHEWAN. THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ON TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT OVER THE REST OF SOUTHERN SASKATCHEWAN, WESTERN AND CENTRAL MANITOBA. DAY 2 LOOKS EVEN MORE VOLATILE, WITH A POTENTIAL OUTBREAK OF SEVERE WEATHER ON TAP. DETAILS OF COURSE WILL DEPEND HIGHLY ON OVERNIGHT CONVECTION TONIGHT AND MOISTURE, BUT A MODERATELY TO VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS WILL LIKELY BE IN PLACE JUXTAPOSED WITH SIGNIFICANT VEERING OF WINDS WITH HEIGHT AND STRONG WINDS ALOFT. TORNADOES, PERHAPS ONE OR TWO LONG-TRACK, LOOK TO BE POSSIBLE ON TUESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING BEFORE YET ANOTHER SQUALL LINE FORMS AND BLASTS OFF TO THE NORTHEAST. AT THIS TIME IT APPEARS THE MOST LIKELY AREA FOR THE STRONGEST STORMS WILL BE A 100 KM CIRCLE CENTERED AROUND ABOUT MOOSE JAW. IF THIS SCENARIO DOES PROCEED AS CURRENTLY FORECAST, A CATEGORICAL UPGRADE TO HIGH RISK MAY BE NECESSARY FOR PARTS OF THE REGION. GOOD POTENTIAL FOR +RA WARNINGS ON DAY 2 THROUGH CENTRAL ALBERTA AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES IN NEAR WAINWRIGHT. UP TO 100 MM POSSIBLE BY WEDNESDAY MORNING. THE ARCTIC WILL BE QUIET THIS FORECAST PERIOD WITH SCATTERED TRW THROUGH THE MACKENZIE TODAY AND TUESDAY. END/CARLSEN/WIELKI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish there was quality radar products in Canada. Best I can find is Accuweather but you can't turn the loop off. The supercell is currently severe warned. Wunderground has base velocity on Canadian radars, but the feeds haven't worked since June 14. Edit, walnut sized hail reported with it.

Buckeye05 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Concerned that current convection could congeal into one big MCS or rain shield over night into the morning and wipe out the potential for tomorrow. Already has that messy cluttered look. Something similar happened for the Manitoba threat we had earlier in the month. I know it's unreasonably pessimistic, but the way this year has been makes it a real possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Already has that messy cluttered look. Something similar happened for the Manitoba threat we head earlier in the month. I know it's unreasonably pessimistic, but the way this year has been makes it a real possibility. More like, "it's what we have come to expect from you". Also, the way the year has been going makes no difference regarding morning convection having an influence over following convection/destabilization. It is a threat to setups regardless. Quite frankly, looking at radar, there isn't a whole lot going on, outside of the cells in Northern MT and the supercell/other cells east of Drumheller/Coronation. Do remember that tomorrow's threat is focused in Saskatchewan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barring morning convection, that high risk that was mentioned in the PSPC's outlook will have to be strongly considered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojo762 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Seeing the PASPC talk about a "relatively moist atmosphere with DP's in the upper teens" makes me laugh... When the DP here in KS is 75 for me... Are DP's usually that low in Canada? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye05 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 It was posted on another forum that the 700 mb temps don't look good, and they don't, with up to 15 in southern Saskatchewan. Capping does seem to let up as the day goes on according to the models though, as does the CIN. Still not perfect though. John Davies has a write-up however that states that judging by 700 mb temps does not work in the Northern Plains due to higher terrain, and surface based storms can still fire with warmer caps. I would think that terrain in SK would be similar to that of the High Plains, but i'm not sure if the capping issue would be minimized there or not. I really do not know enough about capping, but thought i'd bring it up for someone who knows more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
