FRANKSWhat 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 Milwaukee, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 28, 3:21 AM CDT, 11 hours 29 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 28, 3:21 AM CDT, 11 hours 29 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...CORRECTED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
321 AM CDT SAT JUN 28 2008
.DISCUSSION...FORECAST FOCUS ON THUNDERSTORM REDEVELOPMENT TODAY
THEN A WARMING TREND TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.
.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING.
THE FIRST COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH A POTENT TROUGH OF LOW
PRESSURE OVER LAKE SUPERIOR IS CURRENTLY PUSHING THROUGH THE CWA.
NOT MUCH TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE BEHIND IT...BUT DEW POINTS ARE
DROPPING INTO THE LOWER 60S OVER NORTHEAST IA AND SOUTHEAST MN. A
PERIOD OF MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES IS EXPECTED THIS MORNING WITH THE
PRESENCE OF A DRY SLOT. GUSTY WINDS AND WARM TEMPERATURES AT H85
WILL ALLOW SURFACE TEMPS TO RISE RAPIDLY BEFORE AN UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCE WITH VERY COLD AIR ALOFT TRACKS ACROSS SOUTHERN
WISCONSIN THIS AFTERNOON. LOOK FOR HIGHS TO OCCUR BETWEEN 17 AND
19Z BEFORE DROPPING WITH THE PASSAGE OF A SECOND COLD
FRONT...FOLLOWED BY INCREASING CLOUDS...AND QUICKLY DEVELOPING
POST FRONTAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
THE AFOREMENTIONED UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE...CLEARLY EVIDENT ON
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY WILL BRING A LOBE OF -18 TO -21C AIR AT 500 MB
ACROSS SOUTHERN WISCONSIN DURING THE AFTERNOON. GIVEN DEW POINTS
IN THE MID 50S...SBCAPE VALUES OF 500-1000 J/KG ARE EXPECTED.
FAIRLY STRONG DEEP LAYER SHEAR COULD EASILY SUPPORT THE
DEVELOPMENT OF LOW TOPPED SUPERCELLS...CAPABLE OF PRODUCING HAIL
AND GUSTY WINDS. NEARLY DEJA VU FROM LAST WEEKEND WHEN ALMOST
EVERY STORM PRODUCED PEA SIZED HAIL...ALTHOUGH THIS TIME THERE IS
MORE DEEP LAYER SHEAR TO SUPPORT STRONGER UPDRAFTS AND LARGER
HAIL. IN ADDITION...A STRONG 35 UNIT VORTICITY MAX WILL RAISE
CONCERN FOR COLD AIR FUNNELS OR WEAK TORNADO SPIN UPS...ESPECIALLY
AFTER RAIN COOLED SURFACE AIR LOWERS THE LCL.
AS THE CORE OF THE COLD AIR ALOFT PUSHES EAST THIS EVENING...
INSTABILITY WILL DECREASE AND STORMS SHOULD DIMINISH IN COVERAGE
QUICKLY. ANOTHER SHORT WAVE ROTATING AROUND THE MAIN SYSTEM IN
QUEBEC SUNDAY MORNING MAY KICK OFF ADDITIONAL LIGHT SHOWERS/ISOLATED
STORMS...BUT SUBSTANTIAL INSTABILITY WILL BE LACKING SO COVERAGE
FITS INTO THE CHANCE CATEGORY.
.LONG TERM...MONDAY THROUGH NEXT WEEK.
AS EXPECTED...THE GFS HAS COME INTO LINE WITH THE HI-RES ECMWF
WITH RESPECT TO A QUICKER DEPARTURE OF THIS TROUGH AND RAPID
RIDGING OVER THE MIDWEST BEGINNING TUESDAY. THE NORTHERN PORTIONS
OF THE RIDGE AXIS WILL BE SQUASHED BY A STRONG HIGH PRESSURE
SYSTEM AND COLD FRONT SAGGING SOUTH INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST WEDNESDAY.
MOISTURE AND HEAT STREAMING NORTH INTO THE REGION WILL INTERACT
WITH THIS BOUNDARY TO PRODUCE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LATE
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. BUMPED TEMPS UP FOR
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND POPS UP FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT. THIS
SITUATION WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED CLOSELY FOR HEAVY RAINS...
ESPECIALLY IF THE BOUNDARY STALLS NEAR THE AREA AS THE LATEST RUN
OF THE EUROPEAN SUGGESTS. NOT BUYING HOW THE GFS SURGES THE COLD
FRONT TO THE GULF COAST WITH VERY UNSUMMERLIKE TEMPERATURES FOR LATE
WEEK.
&&
.AVIATION...VIGOROUS SHORT WAVE TROUGH WITH ENHANCED FORCING FROM
SURGE OF 400MB POTENTIAL VORTICITY WILL AFFECT SOUTHERN WISCONSIN
BETWEEN 18Z AND 00Z. GFS SHOWS MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES STEEPENING TO
OVER 7 DEGREES AS THIS SURGE MOVES THROUGH. HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS
LIKELY WITH STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS BUT SHOULD ONLY LAST AN HOUR OR
TWO AT TAF SITES. VSBYS/CIGS LKLY TO DROP BRIEFLY TO MVFR OR EVEN
IFR DURING PRECIPITATION. SECONDARY TROUGH WILL RETURN MORE SHOWERS
AND AREAS OF MVFR CIGS TNGT.
&&
.MARINE...STEEP LAPSE RATE DEVELOPS OVER LAND AREAS THIS MORNING.
WITH DRYING LOW LEVELS AND SUNSHINE FOR A TIME...EXPECT WIND GUSTS
TO 25 KTS TO DEVELOP LATER THIS MORNING AND PUSH OVER PORTIONS OF
THE NEARSHORE AREA AHEAD OF PERIOD OF AFTERNOON SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS BETWEEN 20Z AND 00Z. CONSIDERING STRENGTH OF
APPROACHING WAVE AND THERMODYNAMIC PROFILE...AT LEAST SMALL HAIL A
GOOD BET WITH STRONGER THUNDERSTORMS WITH POTENTIAL WIND GUSTS TO
50KTS. WINDS WILL APPROACH OR POSSIBLY REACH SMALL CRAFT ADVY
CRITERIA AGAIN ON SUNDAY IN INCREASING NORTHWEST FLOW IN THE WAKE
OF LOW PRESSURE TROUGH.
