AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
530 PM CST SUN FEB 10 2008

.UPDATE...

AS HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE EASTERN DAKOTAS CONTINUES TO PUSH EAST
THIS EVENING...THE WIND SPEEDS WILL CONTINUE TO DIMINISH AND WILL
DROP BELOW 10 MPH FOR THE ENTIRE AREA BY 02Z. MAY STILL BE SOME
LOCALIZED AREAS THAT MEET WIND CHILL ADVISORY CRITERIA FOR A SHORT
WHILE...BUT IT WILL NOT BE WIDESPREAD ENOUGH TO CONTINUE THE WIND
CHILL ADVISORY PAST 00Z. WILL LET THE WIND CHILL ADVISORY EXPIRE
AS SCHEDULED AT 00Z.

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 344 PM CST SUN FEB 10 2008/

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT

WIND CHILL TONIGHT...AND POSSIBLY ADVISORY CRITERIA SNOW ON MONDAY
AND MONDAY NIGHT ARE THE MAIN CONCERNS WITH THIS PART OF THE FORECAST.

WITH STARTING OUT SO COLD AND A SLOW DECOUPLE OF THE BOUNDARY
LAYER WINDS...TEMPERATURES SHOULD RAPIDLY DROP THIS EVENING AND
EARLY OVERNIGHT...THEN THE TEMPERATURES WILL SLOWLY MODERATE
OVERNIGHT AS WARM AIR ADVECTION AND THICKER CLOUDS MOVE INTO THE
REGION. LOW TEMPERATURES WILL LIKELY RANGE FROM 5 TO 10 BELOW IN
NORTHEAST IOWA...TO 15 TO 20 BELOW IN NORTH CENTRAL AND CENTRAL
WISCONSIN. WITH TEMPERATURES THIS COLD...IT MAKES IT RATHER EASY
TO REACH WIND CHILLS OF AT LEAST 20 BELOW. HOWEVER SINCE WIND IS
ALSO A CRITERIA AND IT WILL RAPIDLY DROPPING THIS EVENING AND
OVERNIGHT...THE DECISION ON HOW LONG TO KEEP THE WIND CHILL
ADVISORY IS VERY COMPLICATED. FOR THE TIME BEING...WE DECIDED TO
JUST KEEP IT GOING UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING. THIS WILL ALLOW THE
EVENING SHIFT SOME TIME TO EVALUATE HOW FAST THE WINDS WILL DROP
TONIGHT.

THE FEBRUARY 10TH 12Z AND 18Z CONTINUE TO SHOW THAT A STRONG
500 MB SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL BE MOVING INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS
ON MONDAY...AND THROUGH THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY ON
MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY. THIS SYSTEM IS CURRENTLY LOOKS RATHER
IMPRESSIVE AS IT SPINS OFF THE COAST OF BRITISH COLUMBIA. AS THIS
SYSTEM APPROACHES AND MOVED THROUGH THE REGION...MODERATE TO STRONG
FRONTOGENETIC FORCING DEVELOPS BETWEEN 850 AND 500 MB. BY FAR THE
STRONGEST SIGNAL OCCURS...IN THE 700 TO 600 MB LAYER. MODERATE
ISENTROPIC LIFT WAS NOTED AT THE 275K SURFACE WHICH CORRESPONDS TO
THE LAYER BETWEEN 750 MB AND 825 MB. THE MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW
THAT THE PRECIPITATION TOTALS WILL RANGE ANYWHERE FROM 0.15 TO
0.30 INCHES FROM MONDAY INTO MONDAY NIGHT. THESE PRECIPITATION
TOTALS HAVE SHOWN UP CONSISTENTLY DURING THE LAST 8 MODEL RUNS.
TAKING A RATHER CONSERVATIVE SNOW TO WATER LIQUID EQUIVALENT...
I GET SNOW TOTALS OF 3 TO 7 INCHES. CONSIDERING THE VERY COLD AIR
MASS...THESE LIQUID WATER TO SNOW RATIOS MAY BE TOO LOW. AS I SAID
YESTERDAY...THIS SYSTEM REMINDS ME A LOT LIKE THE JANUARY 21-22
EVENT WHICH PRODUCED THE 8.5 INCHES IN LA CROSSE. THE ONE
DIFFERENCE THAT I DO SEE IS THAT SYSTEM SHOWED A MUCH DEEPER -15C
GROWTH REGION. I REALLY WANTED TO GO WITH A SNOW ADVISORY ON THIS
SHIFT...BUT FOR COLLABORATION REASONS...I DID NOT ISSUE ONE. IF
THIS TREND CONTINUES...THE MIDNIGHT SHIFT WILL LIKELY HAVE TO
ISSUE ONE.

ON TUESDAY...IT APPEARS THAT WE WILL ONLY BE ABLE TO MIX UP 900 MB
AT MOST. THIS RESULT IN MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES BETWEEN 9 AND 14F.
MEANWHILE THE GFS IS SLIGHTLY WARMER WITH MAXIMUM TEMPERATURES
RANGING FROM 16F TO 21F. I DECIDED TO GO WITH A BLEND OF THESE
TOO...WHICH IS ACTUALLY VERY CLOSE TO THE 09Z SREF.

LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY

ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL PROVIDE ACCUMULATING SNOW TO THE
AREA FROM WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY NIGHT. THE MODELS CONTINUE
TO STRUGGLE A BIT ON THE EXACT LOCATION OF THE HEAVY SNOW. THE 12Z
RUNS CAME IN A BIT FURTHER NORTH THAN 12Z SATURDAY AND 00Z SUNDAY
MODELS. EVEN THOUGH THERE IS SOME DISPARITIES IN THE MODELS...IT
STILL LOOKS LIKE THE ENTIRE AREA WILL SEE ACCUMULATING SNOW. AS A
RESULT...I RAISED THE SNOW PROBABILITIES UP FURTHER DURING THIS
TIME PERIOD. THE SYSTEM ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SNOW IS CURRENTLY
LOCATED SOUTH OF THE ALEUTIAN ISLANDS...AND IT LOOKS RATHER
IMPRESSIVE ON THE WATER VAPOR IMAGERY. THIS SYSTEM WILL LIKELY
REQUIRE A WINTER STORM WATCH LATER ON THIS WEEK.

AVIATION...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT

HIGH PRESSURE DRIFTING ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT WILL RESULT IN LIGHT
WINDS AND VFR CONDITIONS. OVERNIGHT...HIGH CLOUDS WILL START
SPREADING AHEAD OF A SHORTWAVE TROUGH ADVANCING EASTWARD FROM THE
NORTHERN PLAINS. LOWERING CEILINGS CAN BE EXPECTED ON MONDAY...WITH
SNOW DEVELOPING MAINLY FROM KLSE TO POINTS SOUTH AND WEST. BASED ON
DETERMINISTIC AND PROBABILISTIC FORECAST DATA...HIGHEST POTENTIAL
FOR IFR CONDITIONS IN SNOW SHOULD OCCUR AFTER 18Z MONDAY AND
CONTINUE THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT.
