AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR SOUTHEAST SD/SOUTHWEST MN/NORTHWEST IA 
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE SIOUX FALLS SD 
945 AM CDT TUE MAY 21 2002

MAIN WEATHER STORY TODAY WILL BE THE WIND.  STRONG WINDS WILL ONCE 
AGAIN GRACE THE AREA TO REMIND US THAT WE DO LIVE IN UPPER MIDWEST.  
WIND ADVISORY LOOKS GOOD SO WILL CONTINUE IT AND AM A LITTLE WORRIED 
FOR AREAS FUTHER EAST OF ADVISORY AREA...BUT WILL WORD FORECAST IN 
SUCH A WAY THAT GETS THE SAM EPOINT ACROSS.  FORECAST TEMPS LOOK TO 
BE IN THE BALLPARK SO WONT MASSAGE TOO MUCH.  MID LEVELS CLOUDS 
DISSIPATING AS THEY RUN INTO UPPER LEVEL RIDGE.  LOW LEVEL MOISTURE 
BEGINNING ITS TREK NORTHWARD WHICH MATCHES EARLIER THINKING.   

.FSD...WIND ADVISORY THIS AFTN/EVE ALONG AND WEST OF JAMES RIVER
