AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
215 PM CDT FRI JUN 24 2005

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT

FORECAST CONCERNS WILL CONTINUE TO FOCUS ON A FRONTAL BOUNDARY
WAVERING ACROSS THE REGION...WITH THE ACCOMPANYING PCPN CHANCES.

THE FRONT CURRENTLY RESTS FROM EASTCENTRAL WI INTO THE CENTRAL
PLAINS. STRONG INSTABILITY WITH SBCAPES OF 4000 J/KG ALONG AND SOUTH
OF THE BOUNDARY...WITH 0-3 KM SHEAR ALSO ALONG THE BOUNDARY...WILL
CONTINUE TO PROMOTE STORM DEVELOPMENT IN THE VICINITY OF THE FRONT
EARLY THIS EVENING. BY MIDNIGHT...A 25-30 KT LOW LEVEL JET WILL
POINT INTO NORTHEAST IA...ALONG WITH A SURGE OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE.
THESE FEATURES SHOULD HELP MORE PCPN BLOSSOM ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA FOR THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. SFC PW/S ARE STILL PROGGED TO CLIMB TO
AROUND 2 INCHES OVERNIGHT...POINTING TO THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME HEAVY
RAINS. IN ADDITION...THE MORE WEST-EAST SET UP OF THE FRONT WOULD
LEAD TO TRAINING THUNDERSTORMS...ALSO SUPPORTING HEAVY RAIN
POSSIBILITIES.

BOTH THE NAM AND GFS SAG THE FRONT TO THE SOUTH A BIT ON
SATURDAY...FROM CENTRAL IA INTO NORTHERN ILL. THIS SEEMS REASONABLE
CONSIDERING THE ANTICIPATED PCPN FOR TONIGHT...WHICH WOULD PUSH THE
FRONT SOUTH. AGAIN...INSTABILITY WILL BE HIGH SOUTH OF THE
FRONT...BUT PLENTY OF ELEVATED INSTABILITY NORTH OF THERE...WITH
MUCAPES FOR THE SOUTHERN 2/3RS OF THE FORECAST AREA FROM 1000-2000
J/KG. MODELED QPF FOR BOTH THE NAM AND GFS PLACE THE PCPN MOSTLY
SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA THOUGH. BELIEVE THIS IS RELATED TO A SFC
HIGH TRACKING EAST OVER THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES ON SAT...WHICH
WOULD PULL SOME DRIER AIR ACROSS NORTHERN WI. THESE DRIER LOW
LEVEL EASTERLY WINDS WOULD HELP INHIBIT THE CONVECTIVE POSSIBILITIES
TO THE NORTH. SO...WILL KEEP THE BETTER POPS FOR SAT ACROSS THE
SOUTH.

THE FRONT SHOULD MOVE NORTHWARD AS A WARM FRONT THEN ON SUNDAY INTO
MONDAY. THIS WOULD ALSO PUSH THE BETTER PCPN CHANCES NORTH OF THE
FORECAST AREA. IN ADDITION...THE HEAT WILL ALSO RETURN...WITH SOME
90 DEGREE HIGHS LIKELY.

MONDAY NIGHT A FRONT WILL MOVE EAST OUT OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND
ACROSS THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY. GOOD INSTABILTY AND
STRONG LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TRANSPORT INTO AND AHEAD OF THIS FRONT
WILL LEAD TO THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT.

OVERALL AN ACTIVE...BUT MESSY WEATHER PATTERN FOR THE REGION FOR THE
UPCOMING WEEKEND...INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. EXPECT MUCH OF THE FORECAST
AREA TO GET SOME RELIEF FROM THE DRY CONDITIONS TONIGHT THROUGH
SATURDAY. THE HEAT WILL RETURN FOR A COUPLE DAYS ON SUNDAY AND
MONDAY...WITH THE NEXT CHANCE FOR RAIN THEN MONDAY NIGHT...AND A
RETURN TO MORE SEASONABLE TEMPS AFTER THAT.

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY

THE UPPER LEVEL RIDGE WILL BUILD BACK ACROSS THE REGION FOR THE
EARLY PART OF NEXT WEEK...BUT DOESN/T LOOK TO BE AS STRONG AS THE
RIDGE THAT BROUGHT THE RECENT RECORD HEAT...NOR DOES IT LOOK TO HOLD
ACROSS THE REGION FOR AN APPRECIABLE LENGTH OF TIME. A SHORTWAVE
TROUGH WILL SLIDE ACROSS THE NORTHERN ROCKIES TUESDAY
NIGHT...PUSHING ACROSS THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY BY
THURSDAY MORNING. THIS WILL PUSH A SFC HIGH TO THE EAST ON
TUESDAY...WITH A FRONTAL BOUNDARY RESTING ACROSS NORTHERN SECTIONS
OF THE REGION. THE SHORTWAVE WILL THEN BRING ANOTHER FRONT FOR WED
INTO THU. SO...A BIT MORE ACTIVE WEATHER-WISE AS THINGS LOOK NOW FOR
THE REGION NEXT WEEK. TEMPERATURES WILL MODERATE TO MORE SEASONABLE
READINGS ALSO.
