AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
335 PM CDT SUN AUG 19 2007
.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT
CONCERNS FOCUS SQUARELY ON THE HEAVY RAINFALL POTENTIAL FOR THE NEXT
FEW DAYS.
THE LOCAL AREA IS DEALING WITH RAINFALL/FLOODING OF POTENTIALLY
HISTORIC PORTIONS IN SOME LOCATIONS...WITH A FEW LOCATIONS REPORTING
NEARLY A FOOT OF RAINFALL FROM LAST NIGHT THROUGH THIS MORNING.
ASIDE FROM AREAS NORTH AND EAST OF INTERSTATE 94 IN
WISCONSIN...MOST LOCATIONS CANNOT TAKE ANYMORE RAINFALL. SEE THE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE/S WEBSITE FOR THE LATEST
INFORMATION ON THIS EVENT...HTTP://WWW.WEATHER.GOV/LACROSSE.
THE NEARLY STATIONARY FRONTAL BOUNDARY REMAINS THE FOCUS FOR
SHOWER/STORM PRODUCTION...WITH APPRECIABLE AMOUNTS OF LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE RIDING NORTH OF THE FRONT FUELING THIS RAIN.
CURRENTLY...THIS SFC BOUNDARY LIES FROM NORTHWEST IA INTO CENTRAL
ILL. THE FRONT SHOULD HOLD MOSTLY STEADY TONIGHT...SAGGING A BIT ON
MONDAY. THE FOCUS FOR THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TRANSPORT IS INTO
NORTHERN ILL TONIGHT...WITH SFC PW/S AROUND 2 INCHES CONTINUING TO
POOL INTO THE FRONT. STRONG 2-D FRONTOGENETIC RESPONSE INDICATED IN
BOTH THE GFS AND NAM...ESPECIALLY IN THE 900:700 MB LAYER. THE
DIFFERENCE THOUGH IS THAT THE GFS IS SHIFTED A BIT FARTHER SOUTH
THAN THE NAM...MORE ACROSS SOUTHEAST MN INTO SOUTHERN WI. BOTH
MODEL/S QPF MATCH VERY WELL WITH THIS FORCING...WITH THE NAM/S
RESULTING IN KEEPING THE BEST CHANCES/HEAVIEST RAINFALL TO THE
NORTH...AND ALSO ACROSS ILL. CHOOSING TO TOSS QPF OUT
AGAIN...STAYING WITH WHERE THE BEST FORCING IS EXPECTED. CURRENTLY
RADAR INDICATED 2 MORE DISTINCT AREAS FOR PCPN RIGHT NOW...ONE
ACROSS SOUTHERN MN INTO NORTHCENTRAL WI...AND THE OTHER ACROSS
SOUTHEAST IA AND NORTHERN ILL. THE NORTHERN PCPN LOOKS TO BE
ASSOCIATED WITH THE 850 MB FRONT AND UPPER LEVEL FRONTOGENETICS. TO
THE SOUTH...THIS PCPN APPEARS TO BE CO-LOCATED WITH THE BEST LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE TRANSPORT...850 MB JET...AND INSTABILITY JUST NORTH
OF THE SFC FRONT. BELIEVE THIS WILL CONTINUE TONIGHT...AND WILL
EXTEND THE FLASH FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 4 AM AS A RESULT. ADDITIONAL
RAINFALL FROM 1 TO 3 INCHES LOOKS LIKELY.
ON MONDAY...IT LOOKS LIKE THIS PCPN SHOULD START TO SHIFT EAST EARLY
IN THE DAY...AS THE MOISTURE TRANSPORT SHIFTS INTO THE EASTERN GREAT
LAKES. IN ADDITION...THE FRONTOGENETIC RESPONSE WEAKENS ACROSS
THE LOCAL AREA...WITH THE SFC BOUNDARY AGAIN LOOKING TO SAG MORE TO
THE SOUTH. A BREAK FROM THE PCPN LOOKS LIKELY FOR AT LEAST PARTS OF
THE FORECAST AREA AS A RESULT. HOWEVER...COME MONDAY NIGHT/TUES...A
FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL SLIDE FROM THE NORTHERN PLAINS TO ACROSS THE
UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY...ASSOCIATED WITH A 500 MB TROUGH
MOVING ACROSS SOUTHERN CANADA. INCREASING INSTABILITY AND A STEADY
FLOW OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AHEAD OF THE FRONT SHOULD HELP IT SPARK A
LINE SHOWERS/STORMS.
BOTTOM LINE...THE THREAT FOR STORMS WILL CONTINUE AFTER THE
SHOWERS/STORMS OF TONIGHT.
.LONG TERM...THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY
AN ACTIVE...UPPER LEVEL ZONAL FLOW WILL DOMINATE THROUGH THE
UPCOMING WEEKEND...WITH VARIOUS SHORTWAVE TROUGHS PROGGED TO MOVE
WEST TO EAST THROUGH THE FLOW. VARIOUS FRONTAL BOUNDARIES ALSO LOOK
TO LINGER NEAR OR ACROSS THE AREA...SERVING AS YET ANOTHER FOCUS FOR
SHOWER AND STORM DEVELOPMENT. THE MODELS CURRENTLY FOCUS ON ONE
FRONT IN PARTICULAR...WITH A WARM/STATIONARY FRONT RESTING ACROSS
IOWA INTO NORTHERN ILL/SOUTHERN WI FOR THU AND FRI. GULF MOISTURE
CURRENTLY LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR THIS BOUNDARY TO WORK
WITH...WHICH WOULD LEAD TO THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE HEAVY RAINS.
HOWEVER...BY THE WEEKEND THE CURRENT TRENDS WOULD BRING IN A SFC
HIGH...PROVIDING A MUCH NEEDED BREAK FROM THE VERY WET CONDITIONS.
&&
.AVIATION...
ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IS EXPECTED TO AFFECT THE
AREA TONIGHT INTO MONDAY. THIS WILL BE A RESULT OF MOIST SOUTHERLY
FLOW IMPINGING ON SURFACE FRONT...WHICH REMAINS ACROSS IOWA...ALONG
WITH INTERACTION OF UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCES. AS HAS BEEN THE CASE
OF LATE...IFR AND/OR MVFR ARE EXPECTED TO BE THE PREDOMINANT
CONDITIONS AT BOTH LSE AND RST TAF SITES.
