AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
333 PM CDT TUE MAY 10 2011

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...PCPN TRENDS...THE POTENTIAL
FOR SVR TSTMS AND HEAVY RAINFALL...CLOUD TRENDS AND TEMPERATURES
ARE THE MAIN FCST CONCERNS.

WIDESPREAD STRATUS REMAINED OVER MOST OF GRB CWA THIS AFTERNOON...
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF OUR FAR SW COUNTIES...WHERE THE CLEARING LINE
HAD APPROACHED MFI/ISW/Y50. TEMPERATURES WERE MOSTLY IN THE UPPER
50S TO MIDDLE 60S. THE REGIONAL RADAR MOSAIC WAS QUIET...DUE TO
THE PRESENCE OF AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE...WEAK DYNAMIC FORCING AND A
BUILDING CAP.

EXPECT THE CLOUDS TO HANG TOUGH TONIGHT... WITH PATCHY FOG LIKELY
DEVELOPING OVERNIGHT AS SFC/BL WINDS DECREASE. IN ADDITION...
HIGHER DEW POINTS ADVECTING ACROSS LK MICH SHOULD LEAD TO SOME
MARINE FOG...WHICH WILL LIKELY EDGE INLAND. PCPN TRENDS ARE A
TOUGH CALL...AS THERE IS PLENTY OF ELEVATED INSTABILITY...BUT
LITTLE IN THE WAY OF DYNAMIC FORCING OVER WI. MODELS OFFER VARYING
SOLUTIONS...BUT THE PAST SEVERAL RUNS OF THE HRRR SUGGEST THAT A
CLUSTER OF TSTMS WILL DEVELOP NEAR THE WARM FRONT OVER SOUTHERN OR
CNTRL MN...THEN TRACK ENE TOWARD NC WI LATE THIS EVG AND
OVERNIGHT. HAVE MAINTAINED CHC POPS OVER THE ENTIRE CWA...BUT
FOCUSED THE HIGHEST POPS OVER NC WI AFTER MIDNIGHT. LIKE LAST
NIGHT...THERE IS ENOUGH INSTABILITY/SHEAR TO SUPPORT ISOLATED
STG/SVR TSTMS...WITH HAIL BEING THE PRIMARY THREAT.

ON WEDNESDAY...THERE WILL LIKELY BE A LULL DURING THE MORNING
HOURS...BUT CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO REMOVE CHC POPS.
A S/W TROF AND PLUME OF TROPICAL MOISTURE CURRENTLY OVER
OKLAHOMA AND NORTHERN TX IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE LATE ON WEDS.
THIS FEATURE SHOULD TRIGGER NMRS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
DURING THE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY OVER C/EC WI...
WHERE THE WARM FRONT SHOULD RESIDE. ALTHOUGH WIND SHEAR IS
EXPECTED TO BE ON THE WEAK SIDE...THE DEGREE OF INSTABILITY
SUPPORTS THE POTENTIAL FOR ISOLD SVR TSTMS WITH LARGE HAIL...
DAMAGING WINDS AND HEAVY RAINFALL. PARTIAL CLEARING AND MIXING
THROUGH 925-900 MB SHOULD YIELD HIGH TEMPS IN THE 70S TO AROUND
80 RANGE...WARMEST IN CNTRL WI.

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY.

RATHER COMPLEX WEATHER PATTERN TO EVOLVE OVER THE WESTERN GREAT
LAKES INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND. MAIN FEATURES INCLUDE A SOUTHERN
STREAM UPPER LOW FORECAST TO DRIFT SLOWLY EAST ACROSS CENTRAL
CENTRAL MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND POTENTIAL INTERACTION WITH
NORTHERN STREAM ENERGY DRIFTING WESTWARD BENEATH BLOCKING RIDGE
OVER CENTRAL CANADA. BOTTOM LINE IS THAT COMBINATION OF THESE
FEATURES WILL RESULT IN A RATHER BROAD AND SLOW MOVING SURFACE
CYCLONE FORECAST TO TRACK ACROSS THE SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES/UPPER
MIDWEST THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK AND INTO THE
UPCOMING WEEKEND. WILL CONTINUE ONGOING EXTENDED FORECAST THEME
OF UNSETTLED WEATHER WITH PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND FEW THUNDERSTORMS
INTO THE WEEKEND.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY...MODEL CONCENSUS SUGGESTS
SOUTHERN STREAM IMPULSE TO EJECT NORTHEAST INTO SOUTHERN WISCONSIN
BY EARLY WEDNESDAY EVENING. COMBINATION OF THIS FEATURE...MODEST
WAA AND DECENT MID-LEVEL INSTABLITY...AND APROACHING FRONTAL
BOUNDARY SHOULD GENERATE SHOWERS AND ELEVATED THUNDERSTORMS
OVERNIGHT. BUMPED POPS INTO THE LIKELY CATEGORY WEDNESDAY NIGHT
ESPECIALLY OVER THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA. CONTINUED
LIKELY POPS FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS DURING THE DAY ON
THURSDAY AS FRONTAL BOUNDARY DRIFTS INTO THE FORECAST AREA LATE IN
THE DAY. DURING THIS PERIOD...THE POTENTIAL FOR WIDESPREAD SEVERE
WEATHER APPEARS LOW AS BULK DEEP LAYER SHEAR IS MARGINAL DESPITE
NOTEBALE ELEVATED INSTABLITY. COULD PERHAPS SEE SOME MARGINAL
SEVERE HAIL AND STRONG WINDS WITH SOME OF THE STORMS WEDNESDAY
NIGHT AND AGAIN PERHAPS ON THURSDAY AFTERNOON IF ADEQUATE
INSOLATION CAN OCCUR...ESPECIALLY SOUTHWEST OF THE FOX VALLEY.

UNCERTAINTY INCREASES EARLY IN THE WEEKEND AS MODELS DIFFER ON
EVOLUTION OF UPPER-LEVEL FEATURES. ECMWF IS MOST PRGRESSIVE WITH
EASTWARD PROGRESSION OF SOUTHERN STREAM UPPER LOW AND SHOWS LITTLE
INTERACTION WITH NORTHERN STREAM ENERGY. IF THIS SCENARIO PLAYS
OUT...DRIER AIR FROM THE NORTH WILL MORE READILY PUSH SOUTHWARD
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE DAY ON SATURDAY...LEAVING THE
REMAINDER OF THE WEEKEND DRY. ON THE OTHER HAND...THE GFS SHOWS
CONSIDERABLY MORE INTERACTION BETWEEN THESE TWO PIECES OF ENERGY
OVER THE MIDWEST...WITH SURFACE LOW AND ASSOCIATED PRECIPITATIN
CLOUD SHIELD LINGERING OVER THE SOUTHERN LAKES REGION WELL INTO
SUNDAY. THE GEM WAS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE AFOREMENTIONED
SCENARIOS. GIVEN THE VARIED SOLUTIONS...WAS INCLINED TO HANG ONTO
THE CHANCE POPS INTO SUNDAY. HOWEVER...DID BACKOFF ON POPS SOME ON
SUNDAY AS TENDED TO LEAN MORE TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD GEM.

&&

.AVIATION...WIDESPREAD MVFR CIGS WERE COVERING MOST OF THE FORECAST
AREA THIS AFTERNOON. THE EXCEPTION WAS IN CENTRAL WI...WHERE THE
CLEARING LINE WAS APPROACHING MFI/ISW/Y50. EXPECT THE MVFR CONDITIONS
TO PERSIST TONIGHT...WITH PATCHY FOG AND LCL IFR CIGS DEVELOPING
LATER TONIGHT INTO WEDS MORNING. THICKER FOG MAY DEVELOP NEAR THE
LAKE MICHIGAN SHORELINE OVERNIGHT. PARTIAL CLEARING IS EXPECTED BY
LATE MORNING OR EARLY AFTERNOON ON WEDNESDAY. PCPN COVERAGE WILL
BE DIFFICULT TO PINPOINT...BUT THE GENERAL CONCENSUS IS THAT SCT
TSTMS WILL DEVELOP IN CNTRL MN...AND TRACK EAST INTO PARTS OF NC/C
WI OVERNIGHT. THERE MAY BE A BRIEF LULL ON WEDS MORNING...WITH
MORE NMRS SHRA/TSRA DEVELOPING IN NC/C/EC WI LATE WEDS AFTERNOON.
HAVE ADDED IN A PERIOD OF LLWS FOR A WHILE THIS EVG AND CONTINUING
INTO VERY EARLY WEDS MORNING.
&&

.MARINE...HIGHER DEW POINTS ARE EXPECTED TO ARRIVE TONIGHT...
RESULTING IN BETTER POTENTIAL FOR MARINE FOG DEVELOPMENT. THE
MARINE FOG MAY BECOME DENSE IN SOME AREAS...AND SHOULD PERSIST
THROUGH AT LEAST FRIDAY.
&&

.GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NONE.
