This bulk download tool provides the NWS text
in a raw form, hopefully directly usable by your processing system.
You can either provide a complete 6-character PIL/AFOS ID or provide
the 3-character base ID (e.g., AFD
). The start and end
dates represent 00 UTC for those dates. The Zip format is useful as
the filenames will have the product timestamp, which is useful for
when the product format has ambiguous timestamps.
181 FXUS63 KABR 062020 AFDABR Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Aberdeen SD 320 PM CDT Mon Sep 6 2021 .SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Tuesday Night) Issued at 319 PM CDT Mon Sep 6 2021 A frontal boundary that was situated from northeastern North Dakota to west central South Dakota at 18Z will track eastward across the CWA late this afternoon and this evening, reaching western Minnesota around or shortly after midnight. Will see a bit more moisture get pulled up over the eastern CWA late this afternoon, resulting in some CAPE values of 1000-1500 J/kg. As the front approaches that region this evening, may see a few showers or thunderstorms develop along and east of the Coteau, but do not anticipate any severe weather. Winds will shift to the northwest and become breezy behind the exiting front, with the breezy winds continuing through the day Tuesday. The northwest flow will also bring in cooler air, with a return to near normal temperatures. High pressure settles in Tuesday night. Low temperatures tonight will be in the 50s, with high temperatures generally in the 70s on Tuesday. Lows Tuesday night will be in the upper 40s to lower 50s. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Monday) Issued at 319 PM CDT Mon Sep 6 2021 The upper level large scale pattern will feature northwest flow over the northern plains as high pressure remains over the SW CONUS and low pressure spins over the eastern Canada/Hudson Bay region through the workweek. Models do hint at a jet max/shortwave tracking over the region in the Thursday timeframe, but dry air in the mid and low levels will likely hinder precip development. Signs of a pattern change become evident by the weekend and into next week. Some models show varying depictions of a wave of energy in the Friday/Saturday time frame. Then by late in the weekend/early next week, the SW CONUS high appears to break down and the predominate pattern becomes more zonal or at least a low amplitude northwest flow. 500 MB cluster maps do hint at the GFS being a bit faster as compared to the European counterparts in making the pattern change. Either way, this should open up the opportunity for precipitation chances to return to the forecast through the weekend and into early next week. Overall temperatures are expected to remain near to just on the warm side of normal through the long term period. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday Afternoon) Issued at 1224 PM CDT Mon Sep 6 2021 Terminals KABR,KATY,KPIR,KMBG VFR conditions will prevail across the area through the TAF period.
