DISCUSSION...Radar mosaic during the past few hours has shown a persistent band of heavier reflectivity from Fall River county northeastward into Haakon and Stanley counties. The higher reflectivity (25-35 dBZ) is co-located with ZDR values near 0 and likely indicates heavy snow. Recent NWS Rapid City observations indicate snowfall rates to the northwest of the heaviest rates were ranging 1 to 1.5 inches per hour.=20=20 The latest short-term model guidance shows (06z run of the NAM) shows frontogenetic forcing persisting within this southwest-northeast oriented corridor through 15z (9am MDT). The model data indicates the frontogenesis will slowly move north and roughly extend from near Rapid City east-northeastward towards Aberdeen by 8am MDT. ...Smith.. 04/04/2023 ....Please see https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.spc.noaa.gov__;!!DZ3fj= g!7ZgQg9ZUe7XjfbVYVsCj7370j2V9a5UpXFvBylqZoo7tX2yAkUb1vmKSAyOyijB6F4LmKK2Ri= FdSR6x6OIk_b0GSfP0$ for graphic product...
