AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATE
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
414 AM CDT FRI SEP 2 2011

UPDATE TO ADD AVIATION AND MARINE SECTIONS

.TODAY AND TONIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

CONTINUED WARM ADVECTION APPEARS TO BE TRIGGERING MID LEVEL
CLOUDS...PROBABLY ALTOCUMULUS CASTELLANUS...AND ASSOCIATED ISOLD LGT
SHOWERS OVER ERN IA AND NRN IL. NAM SOUNDINGS DO PICK UP ON MID
LEVEL MOISTENING WITH MINOR CAPE SO WILL BRING LOW CHANCE POPS INTO
THE CWA FOR THE MORNING. AS SWLY LOW LEVEL JET AND 850 MB THERMAL
RIDGE SHIFTS TO THE EAST AND SOUTH...AND A SFC COLD FRONT APPROACHES
FROM MN...SFC TO 850 MB FRONTOGENESIS WILL CONTINUE CHANCES OF
SHOWERS/TSTORMS FOR LATER THIS MORNING AND INTO THE AFTERNOON. THERE
IS UNCERTAINTY ON SFC BASED CONVECTION FOR LATER TODAY GIVEN THAT
THE CLOUD COVER MAY INCREASE TOO MUCH...THEREBY KEEPING THE CIN
HIGH. HOWEVER...ELEVATED CAPE WILL BE PRESENT SO AT LEAST SCT
CONVECTION EXPECTED. SVR CHANCES TODAY AND TNT ARE LOW GIVEN LACK OF
CONFIDENCE IN SFC BASED CONVECTION AND VERY WEAK LOW LEVEL WIND
SHEAR DUE TO STALLING AND WEAKENING COLD FRONT. FOR TNT...A
SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL APPROACH FROM THE WEST WITH ORGANIZED 850-700
MB FRONTOGENESIS ALONG WITH PWS AROUND 2 INCHES. THUS MODELS PRODUCE
WIDESPREAD QPF AND WENT WITH LIKELY POPS FOR THUNDER.

FORECASTED HEAT INDICES FOR TODAY ARE JUST BELOW 100F BUT IF IT IS
REACHED IT SHOULD ONLY BE BRIEF. THERE WILL BE SCT-BKN CLOUD COVER
WITH ISOLD TO SCT SHOWERS AND TSTORMS WHICH SHOULD LIMIT TEMPS AND
HEAT INDICES.

.SATURDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

TEMPERATURES AT 850 MB INDICATE THAT BAROCLINIC ZONE WILL REMAIN
STALLED OVER THE AREA ON SATURDAY. ADDITIONALLY...A POTENT MID AND
UPPER LEVEL WAVE WILL APPROACH FROM THE NORTHWEST. ALSO SEEING
SUPPORT FOR LIFT WITH DECENT UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE ACROSS THE
AREA UNDER THE RIGHT REAR ENTRANCE OF THE UPPER JET. WITH
PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES OF 1.5 TO 2 INCHES THROUGH THE
DAY...SEEMS LIKE A GOOD SETUP FOR MORE ROUNDS OF SHOWERS AND
STORMS. OPTED TO INCREASE LIKELY POPS TO THE ENTIRE FORECAST AREA
SATURDAY. CURRENT SETUP INDICATES IT COULD BE MOSTLY CLOUDY
THROUGH THE DAY. THIS WITH THE EXPECTED RAINFALL SHOULD KEEP TEMPS
DOWN A BIT...SO LOWERED HIGHS A LITTLE FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST.

HELD ONTO THE CHANCE FOR RAIN A LITTLE LONGER INTO SATURDAY NIGHT
PER CONSISTENTLY SLOWER ECMWF SOLUTION.

.SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM TO HIGH

A GOOD AMOUNT OF DRY AIR WILL WORK INTO THE AREA BY SUNDAY MORNING
BEHIND THE WAVE...WITH PRECIPITABLE WATER VALUES FALLING DOWN TO
AROUND 1/2 INCH. SHOULD BE DRY THROUGH THE DAY WITH COOLER HIGHS
STRUGGLING TO AROUND 70.

A REINFORCING SHOT OF DRIER AND COOLER AIR WILL PUSH INTO THE AREA
SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY AS THE MAIN TROUGH AXIS MOVES THROUGH AND
HIGH PRESSURE SLIDES IN. WILL BE A COOL LABOR DAY...WITH TEMPS
STARTING IN IN THE MID TO UPPER 40S AWAY FROM THE LAKE...WITH LOW
50S NEAR THE LAKE. HIGHS WILL THEN STRUGGLE UP INTO THE MID 60S.
IT MAY SEEM A BIT COOL AFTER THE RECENT 90 DEGREE WEATHER...BUT
SHOULD STILL BE PLEASANT WITH MOSTLY SUNNY SKIES EXPECTED.

HIGH PRESSURE IS THEN EXPECTED TO HOLD PRETTY WELL THROUGH MUCH OF
THE REMAINDER OF THE WEEK. SKIES SHOULD BE MOSTLY CLEAR...WITH
TEMPERATURES SLOWLY MODERATING TO AROUND NORMAL BY THURSDAY.

REGION AS A COLD FRONT MOVES INTO SRN WI. WIDESPREAD SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS IS THEN EXPECTED TNT INTO SAT. WIDESPREAD RAINFALL AND
VERY LGT WINDS WILL LEAD TO AREAS OF FOG AND STRATUS LATE TNT INTO
SAT AM. MVFR TO IFR CONDITIONS WILL OCCUR.

&&

.MARINE...A SWLY LOW LEVEL JET STREAM WILL EXIT SRN WI LATER THIS
MORNING ALONG WITH THE WEAKENING OF THE PRESSURE GRADIENT. THERE IS
A BRIEF WINDOW LATER THIS MORNING FOR WIND GUSTS TO REACH 25KTS WHEN
