.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 101 AM CDT Sat Jun 13 2026

As of 1 AM CDT, temperatures around the region are in the mid to
upper 50s with winds out of the north to northwest at generally less
than 10 mph. Some light showers have moved into north central SD and
are expected to continue for the next several hours. Little
accumulation is expected out of these showers. Winds are expected to
pick up later this morning and gust to between 30 and 40 mph,
highest wind gusts west of the James River this afternoon. Highs
today, through the weekend, and into next work week will be about 5-
10 degrees below average, generally in the upper 60s to mid 70s.

Dry conditions will continue into the work week with the first good
chance of precipitation coming Wednesday. A low pressure system will
move across the Dakotas during the day Wednesday and bring
widespread chances for showers and thunderstorms. Hard to be
confident on if these storms will be severe or not. Will keep an eye
on this over the next few days. Some storm chances continue over
eastern SD through the end of the work week.
