AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
303 PM CDT SUN JUN 5 2011

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY
MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS ARE ON THUNDERSTORM CHANCES TONIGHT THROUGH
TUESDAY AND POTENTIAL FOR HOT TEMPERATURES THROUGHOUT.

CURRENTLY AS OF 20Z...WATER VAPOR LOOP AND RUC 500MB HEIGHT ANALYSIS
SHOWED SUBTROPICAL RIDGING OVER THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS...
TROUGHING ALONG THE CALIFORNIA COAST...AND BROAD TROUGHING COVERING
MUCH OF CANADA. THE FORECAST AREA RESIDES IN WEST-NORTHWEST FLOW
BETWEEN THE SUBTROPICAL RIDGE AND THE BROAD TROUGH. WITHIN THIS
FLOW...SHORTWAVES ARE EVIDENT OVER SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA AND SOUTHERN
ALBERTA. ANOTHER SHORTWAVE IS EVIDENT OVER SOUTH CENTRAL COLORADO.
THE SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA SHORTWAVE IS HAVING LITTLE IMPACT DUE TO DRY
AIR PRESENT...REFLECTED BY THE 12Z MPX SOUNDING. AIRMASS HAS COOLED
TOO SINCE YESTERDAY WITH 850MB TEMPS OF 12C AT MPX AND GRB.
STILL...THE COMBINATION OF THE DRY AIR AND PLENTY OF SUN HAS ALLOWED
TEMPERATURES TO CLIMB INTO THE UPPER 70S TO UPPER 80S. TO THE
WEST...PROFILERS AS WELL AS 12Z SOUNDINGS SHOWED WARM ADVECTION
OCCURRING OVER THE PLAINS. 850MB TEMPS AT 12Z WERE 13C AT BIS...17C
AT UNR AND 20C AT LBF AND OAX. 20 KT WINDS OR SO ARE PRESENT ACROSS
THE DAKOTAS PER PROFILERS...BRINGING THAT WARM AIR NORTHWARD. LATEST
SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWED HIGH PRESSURE COVERING WI AND MI WHILE A
WARM FRONT WAS SITUATION JUST SOUTH OF I-80 IN NEBRASKA AND IOWA.

TONIGHT AND MONDAY...VERY LITTLE CHANGE IS PROGGED WITH THE UPPER
AIR PATTERN OVER THE CENTRAL PORTION OF THE U.S. THROUGH MONDAY. TO
THE NORTH...THE SHORTWAVE OVER SOUTHERN ALBERTA IS FORECAST TO MOVE
INTO NORTHERN ONTARIO ON MONDAY...WHICH BRINGS A COLD FRONT WITH IT
INTO THE NORTHWEST PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA BY 00Z TUESDAY.
ALTHOUGH THIS SHORTWAVE IS FAR FROM THE AREA...WARM ADVECTION AHEAD
OF IT THAT IS ALREADY OCCURING OVER THE NORTHERN PLAINS IS IMPORTANT
TO THE FORECAST. FIRST CONCERN IS POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTION TO ERUPT
ON THE NOSE OF THE MOISTURE TRANSPORT ASSOCIATED WITH THE WARM
ADVECTION. THIS SEEMS CERTAIN OVER FAR NORTHERN MINNESOTA AND
NORTHWEST ONTARIO...CLOSER TO THE SHORTWAVE. FARTHER SOUTH TOWARDS
OUR AREA MORE UNCERTAINTY EXISTS...DUE TO MOISTURE AVAILABILITY AND
WHETHER THE MOISTURE ADVECTION OCCURRING ON THE LOW LEVEL JET CAN
BREAK THE CAP PRODUCED BY THE WARM ADVECTION. 12Z RAOBS FROM
UNR...OAX AND LBF HAD 850MB DEWPOINTS OF 12C. HOWEVER...TOP...DDC...
ABR AND MPX WERE ALL 2-3C. ALL MODELS SHOW THE POCKET OF MOISTURE IN
NEBRASKA AND SOUTHWEST SOUTH DAKOTA TRANSLATING NORTHEAST THROUGH
THE NIGHT...MOVING INTO THE AREA AFTER 06Z. 05.00Z NSSL WRF AND
WRFNMM RUNS HAVE A DRY FORECAST...WHEREAS THE 05.12Z NAM/GFS/ECMWF
AND MOST OF THE 05.09Z SREF MEMBERS CONVECT WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER...THOUGH THE SREF IS SLIGHTLY FARTHER NORTH. WITH THE MODEL
VARIABILITY AND QUESTIONS OF MOISTURE...ALONG WITH AREAL EXTENT OF
CONVECTION IF IT DOES FORM...WENT WITH 30-50 PERCENT CHANCES...
HIGHEST TO THE NORTHWEST AND AFTER 06Z. 1-6KM SHEAR IS ONLY 20-30 KT
SO SEVERE WEATHER PROBABILITIES SEEM LOW. ON MONDAY...IF THERE IS
ELEVATED CONVECTION...IT SHOULD LIFT TO THE NORTHEAST AND/OR DRY UP
AS THE DRY AIR OVER KANSAS ADVECTS IN. FOCUS THEN TURNS TO THE COLD
FRONT AS WELL AS THE SURFACE WARM FRONT THAT ADVECTED INTO THE AREA
WITH THE CONVECTION. THE 05.12Z NAM/05.00Z AND 05.12Z ECMWF SUGGESTS
ENOUGH CAPPING IN PLACE TO PREVENT CONVECTION ON EITHER BOUNDARY.
THINK THIS IDEA IS REASONABLE VERSUS THE MORE ACTIVE GFS...AND ONLY
HAVE 20 PERCENT CHANCES IN NORTH OF I-90 IN CASE THERE STILL IS
LINGERING CONVECTION AROUND FROM THE MORNING. TEMPS ARE ANOTHER
STORY...PARTICULARLY ON MONDAY AS THE WARM FRONT MOVES IN. ON MONDAY
COULD SEE SOME HOT READINGS...ESPECIALLY ALONG AND WEST OF THE
MISSISSIPPI RIVER. 05.12Z REGIONAL CANADIAN DEPICTS 95-100 READINGS
IN THAT AREA...WITH THE NAM ONLY A FEW DEGREES COOLER. WITH A BREEZY
SOUTHWEST WIND...CAPPING IN PLACE AND PLENTY OF SUN IN THE
AFTERNOON...RAISED HIGHS A COUPLE DEGREES FROM THE PREVIOUS FORECAST.

MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY...COLD FRONT LOOKS TO STALL OUT MONDAY
EVENING NEAR OR JUST SOUTH OF I-90 AS IT BECOMES PARALLEL WITH THE
UPPER FLOW. THE QUESTION THEN BECOMES IF CONVECTION FIRES ON THIS
STALLED BOUNDARY IN THE EVENING...OR DURING THE PROGGED LIFT
NORTHWARD OF THE FRONT DURING THE NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. THE PUSH
NORTHWARD IS IN RESPONSE TO UPPER TROUGHING LIFTING INTO THE HIGH
PLAINS. A POTENTIAL FEATURE TO AID IN CONVECTION MONDAY NIGHT WOULD
BE THE SHORTWAVE IN SOUTH CENTRAL COLORADO WHICH IS PROGGED TO MOVE
THROUGH AREAS SOUTH OF I-90 DURING THE NIGHT. PROBLEM IS THOSE SAME
AREAS MAY BE CAPPED. 05.12Z NAM CONVECTS NORTH OF THE FRONT IN THE
EVENING...THOUGH SOUNDINGS SEEM TO SUGGEST THIS IS RELATED TO THE
BMJ GOING OFF. THE 05.12Z GFS STILL HAS PRECIPITATION...BUT THIS
LOOKS RELATED TO LINGER CONVECTION FROM MONDAY AFTERNOON OR
CONVECTIVE SCHEME RELATED IN THE EVENING. THE 05.00Z/05.12Z ECMWF
AND 05.12Z REGIONAL CANADIAN MODELS ARE DRY IN OUR FORECAST
AREA...AND THINK THESE MIGHT BE MORE PROBABLE TO COME TRUE.
THEREFORE...HAVE KEPT ANY CHANCES MONDAY NIGHT DOWN IN THE 20-30
PERCENT RANGE...IN THE EVENT THE NAM/GFS SCENARIOS PLAYS OUT. SHOULD
THESE LATTER SCENARIOS PLAY OUT...THE 17Z SPC DAY 2 OUTLOOK SEEMS
WARRANTED WITH ENOUGH SHEAR AND CAPE AROUND FOR SEVERE WEATHER.
TUESDAY LOOKS CAPPED...DRY AND HOT MOST LOCATIONS AS THE WARM FRONT
BLOWS NORTH THROUGH MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA. 850MB TEMPS ARE
FORECAST AT LEAST 22-24C...2.5-3 STANDARD DEVIATIONS ABOVE
NORMAL...IF NOT WARMER. WITH ANTECEDENT DRY CONDITIONS...STARTING
OFF WARM...PLENTY OF SUN AND A BREEZY SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST
WINDS...WIDESPREAD 90S ARE POSSIBLE AND WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO
SEE SOME LOCATIONS APPROACH 100. FOR NOW RAISED TEMPERATURES A
COUPLE DEGREES BUT FURTHER WARMING MAY BE NEEDED. HEAT ADVISORY MAY
BE NEEDED...THOUGH THE DEWPOINTS DO LOOK TO MIX OUT...POSSIBLY MORE
THAN CURRENTLY FORECAST.

TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...TROUGHING OVER THE HIGH PLAINS IS
PROGGED TO LIFT INTO NORTHERN ONTARIO DURING THIS PERIOD. AS IT DOES
SO...500MB HEIGHTS ARE FORECAST TO FALL SLIGHTLY...ONLY ABOUT 20
METERS OVER THE 24 HOURS. BIGGER IMPACT IS A COLD FRONT ASSOCIATED
WITH THE TROUGH MOVING INTO THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY. FIRST FOR TUESDAY
NIGHT...WITH A HOT TUESDAY AND STAYING IN THE BREEZY WARM SECTOR...
TEMPERATURES ARE LIKELY GOING TO STRUGGLE TO FALL. PREVIOUS LOWS IN
THE LOW TO MID 70S SEEM REASONABLE...THOUGH IT IS POSSIBLE THAT WE
COULD END UP WARMER STILL. ALSO...INCLUDED A 20 PERCENT CHANCE OF
PRECIPITATION MOSTLY TOWARDS CENTRAL WISCONSIN. IN THIS AREA...MOST
MODELS ARE SUGGESTING INSTABILITY BEING RELEASED ABOVE THE CAP...
LIKELY 700MB OR ABOVE...TO PRODUCE SOME HIGH BASED LIGHT SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. ON WEDNESDAY...ANOTHER HOT DAY WITH TEMPERATURES
ABOVE 90 IS ANTICIPATED AHEAD OF THE FRONT IN THE SOUTHEAST HALF OF
THE AREA. POTENTIAL FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ON THE FRONT AS
WELL AS THE FRONT MOVING THROUGH RESULTS IN HIGHS IN THE MID TO
UPPER 80S ON THE NORTHWEST HALF. THAT POTENTIAL FOR PRECIPITATION
REQUIRES SOME MONITORING AS THERE MAY BE CAPPING STILL IN PLACE.

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY

AVAILABLE MODELS AND ENSEMBLES ARE GENERALLY IN GOOD AGREEMENT ON
SHOWING MEAN RIDGING FROM THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE OHIO VALLEY
DURING THIS PERIOD...ALONG WITH TROUGHING OVER THE WESTERN U.S..
MULTIPLE SHORTWAVES ARE FORECAST TO EJECT OUT OF THE TROUGHING...
RIDING THROUGH THE FLOW AND TAKING A TRACK THROUGH THE NORTHERN
PLAINS AND UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY REGIONS. DYNAMICALLY THIS SOUNDS
GOOD...BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT MOST MODELS MAINTAIN AN AREA OF
CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE THAT BUILDS IN BEHIND WEDNESDAY\S COLD FRONT
FROM NORTHERN MINNESOTA INTO UPPER MICHIGAN...AT LEAST UNTIL
SATURDAY WHEN IT IS PROGGED TO START MOVING EAST. THIS MEANS THAT
THE SHORTWAVES WILL BE BATTLING DRY AIR. IN ADDITION...THE COLD
FRONT IS FORECAST TO SLOWLY DROP SOUTH...REACHING I-70 BY FRIDAY. SO
THE FORECAST FEATURES MAINLY DRY CONDITIONS NORTH OF I-90 THROUGH
FRIDAY WITH CHANCES OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SOUTH...THEN
SPREADING THESE EVERYWHERE FOR NEXT WEEKEND AS MORE SHORTWAVES MOVE
THROUGH. TIMING THESE SHORTWAVES IS UNCERTAIN AT THIS TIME...THUS
THE MAJORITY OF THE CHANCES ARE IN THE 20-50 RANGE. ONLY EXCEPTION
TO THAT IS WEDNESDAY EVENING AND THURSDAY NIGHT IN FAR SOUTHERN
AREAS WHERE 60 PERCENTS WERE INTRODUCED. THESE COVER THE COLD FRONT
RUNNING INTO THE HOT AND HUMID AIRMASS WEDNESDAY EVENING...AS WELL
AS A FRONTOGENESIS ZONE PROGGED BY MULTIPLE MODEL RUNS TO SET UP ON
THURSDAY NIGHT NEAR OR JUST NORTH OF I-80.

COMPARED TO THE SHORT TERM PERIOD...PLAN ON MUCH COOLER CONDITIONS
FOR THE LONG TERM. 850MB TEMPS ARE PROGGED TO FALL TO AS COOL AS 5C
IN TAYLOR COUNTY ON THURSDAY AND 8-12C SOUTH OF I-90. COMBINE THESE
COOLER 850MB TEMPS AND CLOUD COVER...READINGS ARE EXPECTED TO END UP
BELOW NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION...TONIGHT AND MONDAY

MOIST AND SLIGHTLY UNSTABLE AIR WILL OVERRUN A WARM FRONT EXTENDING
FROM THE NORTHERN PLAINS INTO IA TONIGHT. THIS WILL INCREASE MID
CLOUD/ACCAS ACROSS THE AREA THIS EVENING...LASTING INTO MONDAY
MORNING. THE BEST FORCING FOR SHRA/TS CHANCES WITH THIS ELEVATED
CONVECTION WILL BE ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN MN/NORTHERN WI. HAVE
THEREFORE KEPT THUNDER OUT OF THE BODY OF THE KRST/KLSE TAFS...BUT
DID INCLUDE BKN080CB MENTION AFTER 05Z THROUGH 15Z. SURGE OF
MOISTURE OVER THE WARM FRONT PUSHES EAST OF THE AREA AFTER 15Z...SO
CLOUDS SHOULD SCATTER OUT BY THEN. OTHERWISE...EXPECT VFR CONDITIONS
THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY.
