AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
345 PM CDT THU JUN 1 2000

...SHORT TERM CONSIDERATION IS WHEN TO END PRECIPITATION...ON THE LONGER
TERM IT IS JUST TEMPERATURES...

NUMEROUS THUNDERSTORMS WERE OCCURRING IN VICINITY OF 850 STATIONARY
FRONT AND IN ADVANCE OF SURFACE COLD FRONT.  BREAKS IN THE CLOUDS IN THE
MID TO LAKE AFTERNOON WILL ALLOW ADDITIONAL DESTABILIZATION AHEAD OF
LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED WITH SURFACE COULD FRONT.  EXPECT
ACTIVITY TO INCREASE IN COVERAGE AS IT MOVES EAST.  CURRENT RATE OF
MOVEMENT WOULD GET MOST OF THE THUNDERSTORMS OUT OF FORECAST AREA BY THE
TIME THAT THE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM AND TORNADO WATCHES EXPIRE.  MODELS
INDICATE UPPER DIVERGENCE ASSOCIATED WITH RIGHT REAR QUADRANT OF JET
STREAM WILL LINGER UNTIL AROUND MIDNIGHT.  AS A RESULT...A FEW SHOWERS
OR AN ISOLATED THUNDERSTORM COULD STILL BE POSSIBLE BEHIND THE MAIN LINE
THROUGH THE LATE EVENING.

CLOUDS LINGER BEHIND THE FRONT THROUGH MOST OF THE NIGHT...BUT EXPECT
ABUNDANT SUNSHINE FOR FRIDAY.  850 TEMPERATURES COOL TO +3 TO +4 RANGE
BY 18Z FRIDAY BUT STRONG EARLY JUNE SUNSHINE SHOULD ALLOW TEMPERATURES
TO RISE SIGNIFICANTLY.  ALSO...TEMPERATURES WILL BE STARTING AROUND 50
IN THE MORNING IN MOST AREAS.  OVERALL...GUIDANCE TEMPERATURES LOOK OK
BUT WILL LEAN TOWARD THE WARM END.

.GRB...NONE.
