AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
330 AM CDT SUN JUL 9 2006

.SHORT TERM...TODAY/TONIGHT/MONDAY.  MAIN CHALLENGE DURING THIS PERIOD
WILL BE THE TODAY PORTION AS A VIGOUROUS S/W TROF DROPS SOUTHEASTWARD
OVER THE GREAT LAKES REGION.  AT 08Z...CONVECTION WITH THIS SYSTEM OVER
NORTHEAST MINNESOTA AND WORKING TWD FAR NC WI THIS AM.  LATEST TIMING
HAS CONVECTION REACHING NC WI AROUND 12Z.  THE 08Z SURFACE MAP SHOWS 3
MAIN SURFACE BOUNDARIES.  THE FIRST BOUNDARY WAS A WEAK SURFACE TROF
WHICH AIDED IN PRODUCING AN ISOLATED SHOWER OVER FAR NRN WISCONSIN
OVERNIGHT BUT HAS WEAKENED.  A SECOND PRESSURE TROF EXTENDS FROM THE
WESTERN UP OF MI TO CENTRAL MINNESOTA WITH A MORE SIGNIFCANT WIND SHIFT
TO THE NW.   SO FAR NO CONVECTION IS DEVELOPING ALONG THIS SECOND TROF.
THE AREA OF CONVECTION OVER NE MN ASSOCIATED WITH THE DIGGING S/W TROF.
THE MAIN COLD FRONT LOCATED NORTH OF MINNESOTA WILL TRACK OVER THE AREA
THIS AFTERNOON IN THE WAKE OF THE UPPER S/W TROF.   MARGINAL INSTABILITY
AND SURFACE CONVERGENCE WITH THE BOUNDARIES MAY COMBINE TO DEVELOP
ISOLATED CONVECTION BY NOON...BUT BEST DYNAMICS WILL OCCUR WITH THE S/W
TROF AND BEST HEIGHT FALLS DURING THE AFTERNOON BETWEEN 18Z AND 22Z.
MARGINAL INSTABILITY AND INCREASED WINDS ALOFT COMBINED WITH PROGGED
MODEL CONSENSUS DOWNCAPES NEAR 800 PROVIDE THE POTENTIAL OF ISOLATED
SEVERE.  WARM MID LAYER AND CIN MAY KEEP THE LID ON PCPN DEVELOPMENT
THIS AM...HOWEVER BY EARLY AFTERNOON BUFKIT SOUNDING DATA SHOWS THE CIN
AND WARM MID LAYER CAP IS ERODED WITH THE DIGGING S/W.  WILL CONTINUE TO
HIGHLIGHT THE HWO WITH THREAT.

FOR TNT...MAY HAVE SOME LINGERING CONVECTION OVER FAR EASTERN WISCONSIN
UNTIL THE S/W TROF DEPARTS TO THE EAST.  SAT IMAGERY SHOW CLOUDS MAY
LINGER UNTIL THE DRIER AIR NORTH OF THIS S/W TROF POURS IN.  WINDS MAY
BE A BIT GUSTY THIS EVENING UNTIL THE PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES AS A
COOLER HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM SETTLES OVER THE AREA.  QUIET WEATHER
RETURNS FOR THE START OF THE NEW WORK WEEK.

.LONG TERM...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT SATURDAY
HIGH PRESSURE WILL SLIDE ACROSS THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT...BRINGING
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES. NEW 00Z MODELS
QUICKER WITH RETURNING PRECIPITATION TO THE AREA TUESDAY AFTERNOON...
AND PER COORDINATION WITH MILWAUKEE AND MARQUETTE...WILL ADD A CHANCE
OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE AFTERNOON. HIGHEST CHANCES FOR
RAIN WILL BE ACROSS CENTRAL WISCONSIN.

WARM FRONT/SURFACE LOW EXPECTED TO LURK ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT
AND WEDNESDAY...BRINGING A GOOD CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE
PERIOD. DEPENDING ON CLOUD COVER...ONGOING CONVECTION AND BOUNDARIES
AROUND THE AREA WILL DETERMINE HOW STRONG THE STORMS WILL GET.
SURFACE LOW/UPPER TROUGH SLOW TO MOVE EAST OF THE AREA...THEREFORE
CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS STILL LOOKS REASONABLE WEDNESDAY NIGHT
INTO THURSDAY.

BEYOND THURSDAY...GFS MODEL DEPICTING 850MB TEMPERATURES FROM +20
TO +23 C FROM FRIDAY THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND. DID  RAISE MAX/MIN
TEMPERATURES A FEW DEGREES EACH DAY.
