AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
534 AM CST TUE NOV 15 2011

UPDATED AVIATION PORTION FOR 12Z TAF ISSUANCE

.SHORT TERM...TODAY/TONIGHT/WEDNESDAY. PCPN ACROSS THE NORTH TODAY
INTO THIS EVENING AND WINDS THE MAIN FOCUS.

BROAD UPPER TROUGH WILL SETTLE INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND GREAT
LAKES REGION TODAY INTO WEDNESDAY. A FEW SHORT WAVES NOTED ON THE
WV LOOP EARLY THIS MORNING. FIRST WAVE WHICH CONTAINED ISOLD TSRA
OVERNIGHT DEPARTING EASTERN UPPER MICHIGAN. A SECOND SHORT WAVE
WAS NOTED OVER THE EASTERN DAKOTAS AND WAS ASSOCIATED WITH THE WAA
PATTERN AHEAD OF A FRAGMENTED FRONTAL SYSTEM OVER NORTHERN PLAINS
THIS MORNING. A THIRD WAVE WAS NOTED OVER NORTHERN MONTANA AND IS
PROGGED TO WORK INTO NORTHERN GREAT LAKES REGION THIS AFTERNOON.
AREA RADARS SHOWING SOME RETURNS OVER MINNESOTA AND NORTHERN IOWA
IN MID LEVEL CLOUDS SPREADING TO THE EAST TOWARD THE AREA. THE
WARM FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONTAL SYSTEM STRETCHED OVER
NORTHERN IOWA EARLY THIS MORNING. SOME GROUND TRUTH FROM MINNESOTA
EARLY THIS MORNING INDICATE LITE PCPN HITTING THE GROUND. WILL ADD
A SMALL MENTION THIS MORNING AND ALSO INCLUDE A LITE MIX DUE TO
SURFACE TEMPS AND DEWPOINTS AND H8 TEMPS NEAR 0 DEGREES C ACROSS
THE FAR NORTH. THE GFS RUN INITIALIZES THE SURFACE FRONT FEATURES
THE BEST THIS MORNING SO WILL LEAN TOWARD THIS SOLUTION. BUT NAM
DATA SUGGEST A BETTER START WITH TEMPERATURES SO WILL USE A BLEND
OF THESE MAIN FEATURES THIS MORNING. GFS EVENTUALLY PHASE THE
BROAD SURFACE PATTERN TO A SINGLE LOW OVER WESTERN UPPER MICHIGAN
AS THE THIRD MAIN SHORT WAVE ALONG WITH THE COLDER AIR REACHES THE
AREA.

WILL CONFINE THE HIGHEST CHC POPS ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL WISCONSIN
NEAR THE BEST DYNAMICS. TOTAL TOTALS CLIMB INTO THE 50S THIS
AFTERNOON OVER THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES REGION INCLUDING FAR NORTH
CENTRAL WISCONSIN...ALONG WITH STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES.
SURFACE DEWPOINTS JUST NOT HIGH ENOUGH FOR A MENTION OF TSRA AT
THIS TIME. WILL ALSO ADD A MIX TO NORTH CENTRAL WISCONSIN AS COLDER
AIR BEGINS TO INVADE THE AREA. WILL CONTINUE SNOW SHOWER ACTIVITY
FAR NORTH NEAR THE DEPARTING SYSTEM...WINDS DIRECTION APPEAR TO
WEST FOR LAKE SUPERIOR LAKE SNOWS TO AFFECT NORTH CENTRAL
WISCONSIN OVERNIGHT.

AND FINALLY FOR WINDS...PRESSURE GRADIENT INCREASES TONIGHT INTO
WEDNESDAY FOR WINDY OR BLUSTERY WORDING. STRONGEST H8 WIND GUSTS
TONIGHT WITH BEST CAA BUT DUE TO DECOUPLING AFFECTS...NOT
CONFIDENT THE PROGGED 50 KNOT WINDS WILL MIX DOWN. WILL PUSH WIND
GUSTS TO NEAR CRITERIA FOR DOOR BUT WEST WINDS SHOULD PROTECT THE
HIGHER WIND GUST PRONE AREAS.

.LONG TERM...WED NGT THRU NXT MON. MDLS IN GENERAL AGREEMENT ON A
MEAN FLOW TRANSITION FROM A BROAD UPR TROF OVER MOST OF THE CONUS
TO A WEST COAST UPR TROF/SE CONUS UPR RDG EARLY NXT WEEK. MDLS
ALSO AGREE ON SENDING A STRONG PIECE OF ENERGY TOWARD THE GREAT
LKS EARLY NXT WEEKEND BRINGING A GOOD CHC OF PCPN. TEMPS TO BE AT
OR BLO NORMAL THRU MOST OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD.

SHRTWV TROF/SFC LOW CONT TO MOVE ACROSS NRN SECTIONS OF THE GREAT
LKS/SE ONTARIO WED NGT WITH VAST MAJORITY OF ANY SNOW REMAINING
NORTH OF THE WI/MI BORDER. WINDS TO HAVE A WESTERLY COMPONENT TO
THEM...THEREBY SEVERELY LIMITING LK EFFECT POTENTIAL FROM LK
SUPERIOR. HAVE KEPT MORE CLDS IN THE FCST OVER NRN WI CLOSER TO
LOCATION OF EMBEDDED SHRTWV...WITH LESS CLD COVER CNTRL/E-CNTRL
WI. MAY NEED TO LWR TEMPS A BIT AS COLD AIR MASS SETTLES OVER WI
(8H TEMPS DOWN TO -12C BY 12Z THU). THIS WOULD BRING SOME TEENS
INTO PLAY OVER THE NORTH AND PARTS OF CNTRL WI.

RDG OF HI PRES EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO WI ON THU PROVIDING FOR DRY
CONDITIONS...INCREASING SUNSHINE AND WINDS GRADUALLY BACKING SW.
ANY WAA WL OCCUR TOO LATE IN THE DAY TO HELP TEMPS RECOVER AND
WITH THE COLD START TO THE DAY...MAX TEMPS WL STRUGGLE JUST TO TOP
30 DEGS IN THE NORTH...MID 30S CNTRL/E-CNTRL WI.

RETURN FLOW REVS UP IN EARNEST THU NGT AS SW WINDS AT 925 AND 8H
MB PUSH 50 KTS. THESE STRONG WINDS ALOFT WL HELP TO LIFT A WRMFNT
NEWD THRU MOST OF WI BY 12Z FRI...SO TEMPS MAY ACTUALLY START TO
RISE LATE IN THE NGT. DO NOT BELIEVE ENUF MSTR WL HAVE RETURNED BY
THU NGT TO GENERATE ANY PCPN...BUT DO ANTICIPATE SOME CLD COVER TO
ACCOMPANY THE WRMFNT. A WEAK SFC LOW IS FCST TO MVOE ACROSS THE
UPR MS VALLEY TOWARD LK SUPERIOR ON FRI AND DRAG A CDFNT ACROSS MN
TOWARD NW WI BY 00Z SAT. NE WI TO RESIDE IN THE WARM SECTOR WITH
LITTLE LIFT OR FORCING EVIDENT. EXPECT TO SEE A MIX OF SUN AND
CLDS WITH MAX TEMPS WARMING INTO THE LWR 40S NORTH...MID TO UPR
40S CNTRL/EAST.

THE CDFNT SLOWLY EDGES INTO WI FRI NGT AND ESSENTIALLY STALLS SW
TO NE ACROSS THE STATE DUE TO THE FNT ENCOUNTERING AN UPR RDG
SITUATED OVER THE ERN CONUS. CANNOT RULE OUT A SPORADIC SHWR OR
SPRINKLE FRI NGT AS GULF MSTR ARRIVES AND INTERACTS WITH THE
CDFNT. MUCH BETTER CHC FOR PCPN ARRIVES ON SAT AS A SFC WAVE DVLPS
ON THE STALLED CDFNT AND LIFTS NE ACROSS THE MIDWEST TOWARD SE MN/
W-CNTRL WI. SURGE OF WARMER AIR WOULD HAVE MOST OF THIS PCPN FALL
AS ALL RAIN ON SAT. EXCEPTION WOULD BE NRN WI WHERE PCPN COULD BE
MORE SNOW THAN RAIN IN THE MORNING...THEN MORE RAIN THAN SNOW IN
THE AFTERNOON AS THE WARMER AIR ARRIVES. MAX TEMPS WL RANGE FROM
AROUND 40 N-CNTRL WI TO NEAR 50 E-CNTRL WI.

THE STRENGTHENING SFC LOW TRACKS NE ACROSS N-CNTRL WI SAT EVENING
AND RACES INTO SE ONTARIO BY SUNDAY MORNING. FOR THE MOST PART...
THE DEFORMATION ZONE SETS UP OVER NW WI WITH ACCUMULATING SNOWS
LIKELY. EXPECT N-CNTRL WI TO BE ON THE ERN FLANK OF THE PRIMARY
PCPN SHIELD...THUS SOME ACCUMULATION TO TAKE PLACE IN THE
NORTHWOODS. STRONG CAA WL TRANSITION PCPN FROM RAIN TO SNOW OVER
CNTRL/FAR NE WI...HOWEVER PCPN ENDS RATHER QUICKLY SO DO NOT
ANTICIPATE MUCH IN THE WAY OF ACCUMULATION THERE. E-CNTRL WI TO
JUST SEE RAIN INITIALLY WITH PERHAPS SOME FLURRIES THEREAFTER AS
THE DRY SLOT ARRIVES. ANY LINGERING SNOW SHWRS/FLURRIES TO QUICKLY
END ON SUNDAY AS AN AREA OF HI PRES BUILDS INTO THE RGN.

MDLS ARE ADVERTISING A SPLIT FLOW TRYING TO TAKE SHAPE EARLY NXT
WEEK WITH A FAST NEAR ZONAL FLOW FROM THE ROCKIES EWD. A WEAK
SHRTWV TROF MOVING INTO THE WRN GREAT LKS RGN COULD BRING A FEW
SNOW SHWRS TO PARTS OF NE WI ON MON.
&&

.AVIATION...SCATTERED MVFR VSBYS AND CIGS EXPECTED OVER THE NORTH
TODAY AND EVENING WITH SCATTERED RAIN AND SNOW SHOWERS. SOME LIGHT
RAIN OR SPRINKLES WILL PASS OVER PARTS OF CENTRAL AND EAST CENTRAL
WISCONSIN EARLY THIS MORNING...OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED.

WINDS GUSTS IN THE WAKE OF A COLD FRONT MAY REACH 35 TO 40 KNOTS
TONIGHT AND CONTINUE INTO WEDNESDAY.

TDH
&&

.MARINE...WILL CONTINUE SCA HEADLINES FOR NOW...LATER SHIFTS MAY
NEED TO UPGRADE TO GALE FOR LATER TONIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY IF
CONDITIONS WARRANT.

.GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
