.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 255 AM CDT Mon Sep 22 2025
...Synopsis...
500 mb low right over Duluth early this morning. Clouds finally
cleared out of the Baudette and Bemidji areas early Sunday
evening, but with the last clearing and calm winds fog quickly
formed in this area and will remain thru mid morning. Some
patchy fog may form as well farther west into the RRV, with HRRR
indicating some fog forming in the southern RRV.
The overriding theme this week into the weekend is dry and warm.
Upper level ridging builds east into south central Canada and
far northern Plains this week as main jet and moisture reside
well to our south. Stable upper air pattern and looks to persist
for about 10 days into early October. Above normal temps and no
frost concerns in this 10 day period. Considering the wet
weather of the past few weeks, a dry period is very welcome by
most.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY/...
Issued at 1149 PM CDT Sun Sep 21 2025
Confidence has greatly increased in the expectation of dense fog
from Lake of the Woods within northwest Minnesota southward
toward Otter Tail County of west-central Minnesota between 04Z
and 16Z. This includes KBJI, of which 1/4SM FG VV002 has been
included within the TAF starting at 07Z. As dense fog develops,
conditions may vary between no fog and dense fog until around
this time. Confidence is lowered in cessation of dense fog at
KBJI, thus may be one or two hours off.
Otherwise, VFR conditions are forecast throughout the TAF
period, with light winds generally less than 5 kt. There is a
small chance (10%) in shallow, ground fog at other sites like
KGFK, KFAR, and/or KTVF between 09Z-14Z. For now, left this out
of TAFs, but will amend should trends warrant it.
