A COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO BE THROUGH MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA
BY 00Z MONDAY. SUBSIDENCE BEHIND THE FRONT WILL COMBINE WITH
STRONG WINDS ALOFT...RESULTING IN WINDY CONDITIONS AT THE SURFACE.
CENTRAL WISCONSIN SHOULD BE WINDIER THAN OTHER PARTS OF THE
FORECAST AREA...SO THE ADVISORY HAS BEEN CONFINED TO THE
SOUTHWEST PART OF THE FORECAST AREA. ADVISORY WAS NEEDED FOR THAT
AREA IN ORDER FOR GRID CONSISTENCY REASONS. SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO
THE ADVISORY MAY BE NECESSARY WITH SUBSEQUENT ZONE ISSUANCES. DOOR
COUNTY COULD BE A PROBLEM AREA BUT WILL HOLD OFF ISSUING ANYTHING
FOR THEM AT THIS POINT.

THE COLD AIR ADVECTING ACROSS THE BAY AND NEARSHORE WATERS WILL
RESULT IN ENOUGH INSTABILITY TO MIX STRONG WINDS TO THE SURFACE.
SO HAVE JOINED LOT AND MKX AND GONE WITH A GALE WARNING STARTING
SUNDAY EVENING. THIS SEEMS REASONABLE BASED ON MIXING AND STRONG
WINDS ALOFT.

THE AIRMASS BEHIND THE FRONT IS RATHER COLD SO TEMPERATURES WILL
BE BELOW NORMAL FOR AT LEAST A COUPLE OF DAYS UNDER SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE.
&&

.AVIATION...WENT WITH VFR WEATHER FOR TONIGHT EXCEPT THERE COULD
BE SOME LOW STRATUS IN THE NORTH AFTER 09Z. LOW LEVEL WIND SHEAR
EXPECTED AFTER MIDNIGHT AS LOW LEVEL JET INCREASES. WEST OR
SOUTHWEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED AROUND 30 KNOTS AT 1000 FEET ABOVE
GROUND LEVEL WITH LIGHT WINDS AT SURFACE.
&&

.MARINE...A COLD FRONT WILL SWEEP ACROSS THE REGION SUNDAY
EVENING. BEHIND THE COLD FRONT...STRONG WEST TO NORTHWEST WINDS
ARE EXPECTED LATER SUNDAY NIGHT AND WILL CONTINUE THROUGH EARLY
TUESDAY MORNING. GALE FORCE WINDS APPEAR LIKELY LATE SUNDAY NIGHT
INTO MONDAY NIGHT. CONDITIONS WILL NEED TO BE EVALUATED FOR A
POTENTIAL STORM WARNING. BUT THAT IS BEST LEFT FOR THE MIDNIGHT
SHIFT OR THE DAY SHIFT TOMORROW.

.GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
WIND ADVISORY FROM 7 PM SUNDAY TO 7 PM CDT MONDAY FOR WIZ030-035-
