What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS La Crosse, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at May 23, 3:00 PM CDT, 3 hours 47 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 23, 3:00 PM CDT, 3 hours 47 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
300 PM CDT WED MAY 23 2007

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY

FORECAST CONCERNS FOCUS ON THE PCPN CHANCES OVER THE NEXT COUPLE
DAYS.

A CLOSED 500 MB LOW WILL LIFT NORTH NORTHEAST OUT OF THE NORTHERN
PLAINS TONIGHT...AS A 300 MB JET DRIVES IT NORTHWARD...TAKING THE
BULK OF ITS ENERGY WITH IT. AT THE SFC THOUGH...A COLD FRONT WILL
CONTINUE TO MAKE SLOW PROGRESS EAST...RESTING FROM EASTERN MN INTO
WESTERN IA BY 12Z THU. THIS FRONT HAS BEEN SLOW TO MOVE THANKS TO A
STRONG RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE EASTERN 1/3RD OF THE NATION.
ON THU THOUGH...A SHORTWAVE WILL SPIN THROUGH THE MEAN 500 MB
TROUGH...ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS AND INTO THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI
RIVER VALLEY BY 00Z FRI. THIS WILL HELP COLLAPSE THE NORTHERN EXTENT
OF THE RIDGE SOUTHWARD...AND PROD THE SFC FRONT EAST ACROSS THE
REGION.

CURRENTLY...LATEST 88-D IMAGERY INDICATES 2 AREAS OF PCPN. ONE
ASSOCIATED AHEAD OF THE FRONT...GENERALLY RUNNING FROM NORTHWEST WI
SOUTHWEST INTO WESTERN IA. THE OTHER...SMALLER AREA WAS LOCATED OVER
WESTERN WI AND ASSOCIATED MORE WITH A WEAK UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE
AND DIURNAL HEATING. THIS AREA SHOULD WEAKEN AND DIMINISH THIS
EVENING...AS IT LOSES THE HEATING AND THE DISTURBANCE MOVES
NORTHEAST. AHEAD OF THE FRONT THOUGH...THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS
SHOULD CONTINUE AS LOW LEVEL MOISTURE STREAMS INTO THE
BOUNDARY...AND UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROTATES NORTHEAST ACROSS
MN. AN AXIS OF 1000-2000 J/KG OF MUCAPE RUNS JUST AHEAD OF THE
FRONT...WITH 30+ KT OF 0-3 KM WIND SHEAR IN THIS BAND. SO...SOME
SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE POSSIBLE EARLY THIS EVENING WITH ANY OF THESE
STORMS.

ON THU...THE SFC FRONT LOOKS TO TRUDGE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA
DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS. GOOD FRONTOGENETIC FORCING ALONG AND
BEHIND THE FRONT...IN THE 900:600 MB LAYERS. INSTABILITY WILL BUILD
AHEAD OF IT...WITH MUCAPES UP TO 1000 J/KG...ALTHOUGH IF THERE ENDS
UP BEING LESS CLOUDS THE INSTABILITY WOULD BE HIGHER. THE WIND SHEAR
LOOKS TO BE AMPLE BOTH ALONG AND BEHIND THE FRONT...WITH THE 0-3 KM
SHEAR UPWARDS OF 50 KTS. AS FOR SATURATION...THERE LOOKS TO BE A
FOCUSED BAND OF MOISTURE TRANSPORT ON THE 850 MB SFC MOVING
NORTHEAST INTO THE REGION THU AFTERNOON...ALONG AND BEHIND THE
FRONT. RH FIELDS ALSO PLACE THE BEST SATURATION POST FRONT. WITH THE
BETTER FORCING SIGNALS AND MOISTURE BEHIND THE FRONT...THE BEST PCPN
CHANCES SHOULD ALSO COME BEHIND THE FRONT. ALTHOUGH THERE WON/T BE
AS MUCH INSTABILITY TO TAP INTO BEHIND THE FRONT...THE STRONG WIND
SHEAR WOULD CERTAINLY SUPPORT THE CHANCE FOR SOME SEVERE WEATHER
ALONG THE BOUNDARY.

THE FRONT WILL SLIDE OVER THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES BY FRIDAY
MORNING...WITH THE PRECIPITATION THEREFORE EXITING EAST OF THE
FORECAST AREA OVERNIGHT THU. A WEAK SFC HIGH WILL TRY TO SETTLE IN
BEHIND THE FRONT.

ON FRI NIGHT...ANOTHER SHORTWAVE TROUGH LOOKS TO SPIN ACROSS THE
NORTHERN PLAINS...MOVING OVER NORTHERN MN SAT AFTERNOON. A SFC LOW
AND COLD FRONT WILL DEVELOP IN RESPONSE TO THE UPPER LEVEL
FORCING...ALSO MOVING OVER THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY SAT
AFTERNOON. MODELS IN SLIGHT DISAGREEMENT WITH THE SPEED OF THIS
SYSTEM...WITH THE GFS PUSHING THE FRONT INTO WESTERN WI BY 00Z
SUN...WHILE THE NAM HANGS IT OVER EASTERN MN AT THAT TIME. THE
LATEST SREF WOULD SUPPORT THE NAM...ALTHOUGH THE PREVIOUS EC
WOULD SIDE WITH THE GFS. WILL SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE FOR NOW. RH
FIELDS WOULD PUT THE BEST SATURATION ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT IN
THIS CASE...AND WOULD EXPECTED CONVECTION TO DEVELOP ALONG AND AHEAD
OF THE FRONT AS IT MOVES ACROSS THE AREA.

SO OVERALL...PRETTY GOOD CHANCES FOR SHOWERS/STORMS CONTINUE INTO
SATURDAY...WITH FRI LOOKING LIKE MORE OF A DRY DAY.

.LONG TERM...SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY

THE MODELS ARE POINTING TO A FAIRLY ACTIVE ZONAL PATTERN FOR THE END
OF THE WEEKEND AND INTO NEXT WEEK...WITH A SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVING
ALONG THE CANADIAN/US BORDER. AT THE SFC...THE SAT FRONT WILL SLIDE
EAST SAT NIGHT...BUT MAY LAY UP TO THE SOUTH...FROM WEST TO
EAST...AND COULD BE A PLAYER IN OUR WEATHER FOR EARLY NEXT WEEK. ITS
WITH THIS BOUNDARY THAT THE MODELS START TO SHOW THEIR
DIFFERENCES...AS THE GFS SETS IT UP FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS INTO
CENTRAL ILL FOR MON NIGHT THROUGH TUES. WITH SOME SHORTWAVE ENERGY
INTO IT...ALONG WITH FAVORABLE MOISTURE RETURN...BANDS OF
SHOWERS/STORMS WOULD DEVELOP ALONG AND NORTH OF THE FRONT. THERE IS
SOME HINT OF THIS IN THE ECMWF...BUT NOT AS ROBUST AS THE GFS.
MORE DIFFERENCES THEN WITH A SHORTWAVE TROUGH SLATED TO MOVE ACROSS
THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY TUES. BY THIS TIME...BOTH MODELS
DEVELOP AN AMPLIFIED RIDGE OVER THE WEST COAST...WITH THE EC DRIVING
A SHORTWAVE TROUGH INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS. THE GFS IS QUICKER WITH
THIS FEATURE...MOVING IT INTO THE REGION BY THIS TIME. THE MREF
WOULD SEEM TO LEAN MORE TOWARD THE GFS. SO...PRECIPITATION WILL PUSH
OUT OF THE AREA SAT NIGHT...THEN THERE IS THAT POTENTIAL FOR AN
OVERRUNNING/TRAINING STORM SETUP ON MON INTO TUES...ALTHOUGH THE
BETTER CHANCES LOOK TO LIE TO THE SOUTH AT THIS TIME.
