This nice weather is brought to you thanks to the surface high pressure, currently centered over eastern sd. Winds will begin to transition to the south this evening into the overnight hours, as the high moves southeast. A quiet and chilly night is expected with mostly clear skies and light winds. Conditions will be favorable for efficient radiational cooling, thus areas of fog could be possible, mainly east of i-29 by early Monday morning. Overnight lows will range from the lower 50s to lower 60s. Conditions will change to start the work week with the return of heat and humidity. As the surface high moves east out of the region, a broad area of warm air advection surges northward into the region. Precipitation is not anticipated throughout the day, but breezy south winds from 15 to 25 mph will be possible in the afternoon. Highs will generally be in the 80s to near 90 along the missouri river.

Almost all of these also make simplifying assumptions so they are not totally accurate even if there are no errors. Please verify all results. 5) Weather information is from numerious of sources and is presented automatically. It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
