Area forecast discussion, Apr 24, 2:59 PM CDT, 5 hours 42 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
259 PM CDT FRI APR 24 2009

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY

MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS IS SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL TONIGHT...THEN
HEAVY RAIN POTENTIAL FOR SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY NIGHT.

LATEST 19Z SURFACE ANALYSIS INDICATED COLD FRONT EXTENDING FROM LAKE
SUPERIOR INTO NORTHERN KANSAS. LATEST 24.18Z RUC ANALYSIS
INDICATING SURFACE BASED CIN AROUND -100 TO -200 ACROSS FORECAST
AREA. THIS IS ALLOWING FOR SUNNY SKIES ACROSS FORECAST AREA PER
LATEST VISIBLE SATELLITE IMAGERY.

THE 24.12Z GFS AND NAM INITIALIZED OVERALL UPPER LEVEL PATTERN AND
EMBEDDED SHORTWAVE TROUGHS WELL PER LATEST WATER VAPOR SATELLITE
IMAGERY. BOTH THE MODELS ARE IN DECENT AGREEMENT IN MOVING UPPER
LEVEL/SURFACE FEATURES THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY...THEN BEGIN TO DIVERGE
SIGNIFICANTLY ON STRENGTH AND TIMING OF UPPER LEVEL/SURFACE LOW
EJECTING OUT INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY
NIGHT. THOUGH...BOTH MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE A STRONG SURGE OF
MOISTURE AND THE POTENTIAL FOR LOCAL HEAVY RAINFALL WITH THIS SYSTEM.
CONFIDENCE IS VERY HIGH THE AREA WILL RECEIVE RAINFALL THROUGH
PERIOD...THOUGH CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON PLACEMENT AND TIMING
SURFACE/UPPER LEVEL FEATURES SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY NIGHT.

TONIGHT...SURFACE COLD FRONT SLOWLY MOVES SOUTHEAST
ACROSS FORECAST AREA AND EXTENDING FROM SOUTHERN MICHIGAN INTO
EASTERN KANSAS BY 00Z SUNDAY. LATEST 24.15Z RUC ANALYSIS INDICATING
STRONG SURFACE MOISTURE CONVERGENCE ALONG FRONT. WITH STRONG CAP IN
PLACE THIS AFTERNOON...CONVECTION WILL INITIATE AFTER 00Z...AS MID
LEVELS BEGIN TO COOL ALONG SURFACE COLD FRONT. THIS IS INDICATED BY
THE 24.09Z ARXRUCWRF...24.12Z EASTNMM4 AND EASTARW4 AND 24.12Z
DETERMINISTIC MODELS. AS FAR AS SEVERE POTENTIAL THIS EVENING...THE
24.15Z RUC AND 24.12Z DETERMINISTIC MODELS ARE ALL INDICATING
SURFACE BASED CAPE OF 1000-2000 J/KG...THOUGH 0-6KM SHEAR IS LESS
THAN 30 KNOTS ALONG SURFACE COLD FRONT. 0-3KM SHEAR IS SUFFICIENT
WITH 20 TO 40 KNOTS ALONG FRONT. A FEW OF THE THUNDERSTORMS MAY
BECOME SEVERE THIS EVENING WITH MAIN THREATS TO BE LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS.

WITH THE SURFACE FRONT MOVING SOUTH AND EAST OF FORECAST AREA BY
SATURDAY EVENING AND THE 24.12Z GFS AND NAM TIME HEIGHT CROSS
SECTIONS/BUFKIT SOUNDINGS INDICATING SUBSIDENCE ACROSS FORECAST
AREA...ESPECIALLY NORTHERN HALF. HAVE REDUCED PRECIPITATION CHANCES
ACROSS FORECAST AREA AFTER 18Z SATURDAY.

BOTH THE 24.12Z GFS AND NAM INDICATE SURFACE CYCLOGENESIS OVER THE
LEE SIDE OF THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS BY 12Z SUNDAY. BOTH MODELS
INDICATING VERY STRONG LOW LEVEL JET DEVELOPING AND A STRONG SURGE
OF MOISTURE TRANSPORT OUT AHEAD OF SURFACE LOW DURING THE
DAY SUNDAY. AS PREVIOUSLY MENTION CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON EJECTING
SURFACE FEATURES NORTHWARD DURING THIS TIMEFRAME...THOUGH BOTH MODELS
ARE INDICATING STRONG 850-700MB THETA E CONVERGENCE IN ASSOCIATION
WITH SYSTEM. HAVE INCREASED PRECIPITATION CHANCES SLIGHTLY ACROSS
FORECAST AREA SUNDAY. THE 24.12Z DETERMINISTIC MODELS AND THE
24.09Z SREF ARE INDICATING PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES INCREASING TO 1
TO 1.5 INCHES BY 00Z MONDAY. LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL IS POSSIBLE
ACROSS THE AREA...THOUGH WITH DRY CONDITIONS ACROSS FORECAST AREA...
FLOODING LOOKS TO BE MINIMAL. SEVERE THREAT LOOKS TO BE MINIMAL...
AS CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION WILL REDUCED THE INSTABILITY ACROSS THE
FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER...ANY BREAKS IN THE CLOUD COVER MAY ALLOW FOR
AN INCREASE IN INSTABILITY AND SOME OF THE STORMS TO BECOME SEVERE.
THE MAIN THREAT WOULD BE LARGE HAIL SUNDAY AFTERNOON INTO THE SUNDAY
EVENING.

SMALL PRECIPITATION CHANCES REMAIN OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE
FORECAST AREA MONDAY...AS SURFACE COLD FRONT EXTENDING SOUTH OF LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM OVER LAKE SUPERIOR SLOWLY MOVES SOUTHEAST INTO
NORTHERN ILLINOIS AND EASTERN IOWA.

.LONG TERM...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY

MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS ARE PRECIPITATION CHANCES THURSDAY INTO
FRIDAY. THE 24.00Z GFS AND ECMWF ARE IN VERY GOOD AGREEMENT IN
DIGGING UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND CLOSING OFF UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER THE
FOUR CORNERS AREA THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. BIGGEST
DIFFERENCE IS TIMING AND PLACEMENT OF THE FIRST PIECE OF ENERGY
EJECTING OUT INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS STATES THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY.
THOUGH...BOTH THE MODELS ARE IN AGREEMENT IN DEVELOPING
SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW ALOFT BY 12Z THURSDAY ACROSS THE CENTRAL U.S.
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH DIGS OVER THE SOUTHWEST U.S. AND ALLOWS RIDGE TO
AMPLIFY OVER THE CENTRAL U.S. BY 00Z THURSDAY. FIRST IMPULSE EJECTS
OUT OF UPPER LEVEL CLOSED LOW AND FLATTENS OUT RIDGE OVER THE CENTRAL
U.S. BY 00Z FRIDAY. BOTH THE 24.00Z GFS AND ECMWF ARE DEVELOPING
STRONG LOW LEVEL JET OUT AHEAD OF IMPULSE AND INDICATE STRONG
MOISTURE TRANSPORT AND LIFT INTO THE REGION THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY.
CONFIDENCE IS INCREASING FOR PRECIPITATION CHANCES THURSDAY AND
FRIDAY...THOUGH CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON TIMING AND PLACEMENT OF
SHORTWAVE TROUGH. WILL INTRODUCE PRECIPITATION CHANCES ACROSS THE
AREA THURSDAY AND INTO FRIDAY...AS THE 24.00Z DETERMINISTIC RUNS AND
ENSEMBLES PROBABILISTIC INDICATE PRECIPITATION OVERSPREADING INTO THE
FORECAST AREA. TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE MIDDLE OF THE WEEK WILL BE
NEAR NORMAL...AND POSSIBLY ABOVE NORMAL LATE IN THE PERIOD DEPENDING
ON PLACEMENT OF WARM FRONT OVER THE CENTRAL U.S.

&&

.AVIATION...

A COLD FRONT WILL SLIDE EAST SOUTHEAST...EXTENDING FROM NORTHEAST WI
INTO THE SOUTHERN PLAINS BY 06Z TONIGHT. THE ATMOSPHERE IS FAIRLY
CAPPED AHEAD OF THE FRONT...PER BUFKIT SOUNDINGS...BUT THIS CAP
SHOULD BREAK BETWEEN 00-03Z. THE ARW4/NMM4/NAM12 ALL SHOW THIS
FAIRLY WELL...QUICKLY DEVELOPING CONVECTION DURING THIS TIME.
PERIODS OF SHRA/TS WILL LIKELY IMPACT KRST/KLSE FROM 03Z THROUGH
ABOUT 18Z SAT. THERE WILL BE A SEVERE THREAT THIS EVENING WITH ANY
OF THE STORMS...WITH A LARGE HAIL/DAMAGING WIND POTENTIAL.
THE FRONT WILL START TO MOVE BACK NORTH ON SUNDAY...LEADING TO MORE
SHRA/TS INTO MONDAY. CEILINGS LOOK TO DROP INTO THE MVFR RANGE FOR A
PERIOD OF TIME BY SAT MORNING //PERHAPS SOME IFR//...AND THEN AGAIN
LATER IN THE DAY SUNDAY. ALSO...SOME MVFR CONDITIONS WILL ACCOMPANY
