Scattered storms hit Sioux Falls and beyond<\/strong><\/p>\n Monday, June 16<\/strong>, has brought another round of scattered showers and thunderstorms<\/strong> across KELOLAND<\/strong>, affecting places like Huron<\/strong>, which picked up over 1 inch of rain<\/strong>, and Pierre<\/strong> and Watertown<\/strong>, where totals were closer to 0.25 inches<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Storms along and east of I-29<\/strong> are tapering off as the evening progresses. These systems are expected to move out, though some heavier downpours remain possible<\/strong>. Most of these storms are not expected to reach severe levels<\/strong>, but conditions remain unstable<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Evening convection brewing in eastern Montana and Wyoming<\/strong><\/p>\n The current calm won’t last. New storms are forming across eastern Montana and northeastern Wyoming<\/strong>, with activity tracking toward the Dakotas<\/strong>. Systems north of I-90<\/strong> will likely persist overnight<\/strong>, while those to the south of I-90<\/strong> are expected to diminish.<\/p>\n Northwestern KELOLAND<\/strong> is under an enhanced risk<\/strong> for severe weather, with the rest of West River<\/strong> in a slight risk<\/strong>. A severe thunderstorm watch<\/strong> is likely to be issued soon<\/strong> in these areas. The primary threats include large hail<\/strong> and damaging wind gusts<\/strong>, especially as these storms cross into the East River<\/strong> region after dark.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Warm and muggy night ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n Tonight will remain mild and sticky<\/strong>, with lows in the 60s \u00b0F (16\u201321 \u00b0C)<\/strong>. Winds from the south<\/strong> will stay light to moderate<\/strong>, though gusts<\/strong> could increase within active storms.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n More instability Tuesday with severe threat building<\/strong><\/p>\n Tuesday<\/strong> will bring higher humidity levels<\/strong> across southeastern KELOLAND, as temperatures climb. The warmest highs<\/strong> are expected in this region, flirting with the upper 80s to low 90s \u00b0F (31\u201334 \u00b0C)<\/strong>. A weak cold front<\/strong> is forecast to slide through the region, switching winds to the north<\/strong> and potentially setting the stage for more afternoon thunderstorms<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Atmospheric conditions will remain unstable<\/strong>, increasing the chance for convection<\/strong> to ignite along the front.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Tuesday afternoon: severe risk in eastern South Dakota and Minnesota<\/strong><\/p>\n A new enhanced risk<\/strong> is in place for parts of southwest Minnesota<\/strong> and far eastern South Dakota<\/strong> on Tuesday<\/strong>. A developing line of thunderstorms<\/strong> is expected to push through southwestern Minnesota<\/strong> in the late afternoon and evening<\/strong>, gradually tracking southeast<\/strong>.<\/p>\n The most significant threats<\/strong> include large hail<\/strong>, damaging winds<\/strong>, and an isolated tornado<\/strong> cannot be ruled out.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Looking ahead: cooler Tuesday, then a major warm-up<\/strong><\/p>\n By Tuesday<\/strong>, temperatures will settle in the 70s \u00b0F (21\u201326 \u00b0C)<\/strong> before soaring again<\/strong> toward the end of the week. Forecast models are showing widespread 90s \u00b0F (32\u201337 \u00b0C)<\/strong> across KELOLAND<\/strong> as the weekend approaches, suggesting oppressive heat<\/strong> could be returning soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Scattered storms hit Sioux Falls and beyond Monday, June 16, has brought another round of scattered showers and thunderstorms across KELOLAND, affecting places like Huron, which picked up over 1 inch of rain, and Pierre and Watertown, where totals were closer to 0.25 inches.
