UPPER LOW JUST SOUTH OF THE WI/IL BORDER WILL WOBBLE EAST TONIGHT.
MEANWHILE...DEEPENING SFC LOW WILL WRAP NORTH AND THEN WEST AROUND
THE UPPER LOW...REACHING FAR SW WI BY LATE MONDAY MORNING. MODELS
STILL SHOWING DEEP MOISTURE...DEEP Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE...AND PRETTY
STRONG 850-700MB WARM AIR ADVECTION MOVING RIGHT OVER THE FORECAST

THE RELATIVELY MILD WATERS...BUT THIS WILL LIKELY THEN TRANSLATE TO
HIGHER GUSTS INLAND ALONG THE SHORE. THINK GUSTS TO 30 OR 35 MPH ARE
POSSIBLE ALONG THE LAKE AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY
MORNING.

DRY SLOT WILL BEGIN WORKING INTO THE AREA FROM THE SOUTHEAST MONDAY
MORNING...SO KEPT HIGHEST POPS TOMORROW IN THE NORTH AND WEST. LOOKS
LIKE HIGHS STUCK AROUND 60 OR THE LOW 60S AGAIN MONDAY WITH THE RAIN

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM

OCCLUDED LOW WILL MOVE ACROSS NRN IL MON NT AND THEN STALL OVER
SRN LAKE MI FOR TUE AND TUE NT BEFORE SLOWLY MOVING EWD ON WED.
MAJORITY OF PCPN WILL REMAIN NEAR THE CENTER OF THE LOW EXCEPT ON
TUE WHEN ANOTHER LOBE OF VORTICITY ADVECTION AND WEAK 850-700 MB
FRONTOGENESIS WILL AFFECT ERN WI AND PORTIONS OF SOUTH CENTRAL WI.
LAKE WATER TO 850 MB TEMP DIFFERENCE WILL REMAIN AROUND 11C SO LAKE

LATE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT...AS DEEPENING SFC LOW PRESSURE MOVES
OVERHEAD. WIDESPREAD RAINFALL WITH A FEW EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS IS
EXPECTED WITH THIS LOW LATER TONIGHT INTO MONDAY MORNING.
ADDITIONALLY...WINDS WILL PICK UP OUT OF THE EAST OVERNIGHT AS THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS. HIGHEST GUSTS WILL BE TOWARD THE
