AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
319 PM CDT TUE JUN 21 2011

.VERY SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.

TONIGHT- CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM
MAIN ISSUE IS SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ASSOCIATED WITH SHORTWAVE/JET LET
WRAPPING NORTHEAST AROUND NE NEB/SE SD UPPER SYSTEM. 18Z DVN WAS
QUITE DRY WITH MOSTLY ELEVATED INSTABILITY. TORNADIC POTENTIAL
INCREASING ESPECIALLY CLOSER TO THE EAST/WEST ORIENTED WARM FRONTAL
BOUNDARY. SPC MESO PAGE SHOWS DECENT OVERLAP OF FAVORABLE 0-6 KM
SHEAR AND 0-1 SHEAR VALUES ACROSS NORTHERN CWA...WITH BEST MLCAPE IS
IN EASTERN CWA FEEDING NORTHWEST. THINK BEST ROTATION WILL BE IN THE
NORTHERN HALF CWA CLOSER TO WARM FRONTAL POSITION. TORNADO WATCH 532
FOR PART OF OUR WESTERN AND NORTHERN CWA. PROGGS IN PRETTY DECENT
AGREEMENT IN SHIFTING CONVECTION NORTH OF CWA AROUND 6Z AS MID LEVEL
DRYING SHIFTS IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST AND OMEGA/SHORTWAVE HEAD OFF.
LOW LEVELS WILL REMAIN MOIST AND STRATUS/FOG TRENDS WILL BE TRICKY
AS PRE WARM-FRONTAL AIRMASS MOIST AND SOUTHEAST AND KEEPING AREAS
NORTH OF MILWAUKEE VULNERABLE FOR FOG SHIFTING INLAND.

WEDNESDAY- CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM
NEARLY VERTICALLY STACKED SYSTEM WILL PLOD ACROSS WISCONSIN. PLENTY
OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE. EXPECTING A LOT OF WHAT WE ARE SEEING ACROSS
EASTERN NEBRASKA AND NORTHWEST IOWA TODAY NEAR AND OUT AHEAD OF THE
UPPER LOW CENTER. SO PLENTY OF SHOWERS/LOW TOPPED THUNDER. CAPE IS
SHALLOW AND SKINNY BUT LOW LEVELS WILL BE VERY MOIST WITH SURFACE
DEWS IN THE LOW 60S AND 850 DEWS 10-12C. 500 TEMPS ONLY -10 TO
-11C...SO NOT AN OVERLY CHILLY LOW. WILL MAINTAIN THUNDER BUT NOT
EXCITED ABOUT SEVERE...BUT LATE JUNE WITH AN UPPER SYSTEM...WILL
STILL HAVE TO WATCH OUT FOR SOME SORT OF UNUSUAL OCCURRENCE. OVERALL
LIKE THE IDEA OF SPC SHIFTING SLIGHT RISK TO THE EAST OF OUR CWA.

.SHORT TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY.

THIS PORTION OF FORECAST REMAINS DOMINATED BY PROGRESSION OF NEARLY
STACKED SYSTEM SLOWLY CROSSING WISCONSIN AND THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES.

.WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM.

LIKELY POPS THROUGH THIS PERIOD FOR INSTABILITY SHOWERS AS SYSTEM IS
CENTERED OVER CENTRAL WISCONSIN AT 00Z THURSDAY AND ONLY REACHES THE
CENTRAL U.P. OF MICHIGAN BY 00Z FRIDAY. NOT ALL NIGHT/DAY RAINS AS
PRECIPITATION CHANCES INCREASE IN LIFT AHEAD OF...THEN FALL OFF WITH
SUBSIDENCE BEHIND VORTICITY MAXES PINWHEELING AROUND CENTRAL
CIRCULATION CENTER. SOME MINIMAL CAPE THURSDAY...BUT WITH MEAGER
LAPSE RATES WITH 500 MB TEMPERATURES ONLY IN THE -10 TO -11C RANGE
LOOKS MOSTLY SHOWERY.

COLDEST 850 TEMPS REMAIN ON WESTERN PERIPHERY OF SYSTEM THROUGH
EASTERN DAKOTAS/WESTERN MN THROUGH THE DAY THURSDAY. NOT A LARGE
DIURNAL SWING UNDER THE CLOUDS AND PRECIPITATION WITH UPPER 50S TO
LOW 60S WED NIGHT AND MID 60S THURSDAY IN GUIDANCE LOOKING GOOD.

.THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM

WILL SLOWLY LOWER CHANCE POPS FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST THURSDAY
NIGHT AS FORECAST AREA REMAINS UNDER INFLUENCE OF THE WESTERN
PERIPHERY OF CYCLONIC FLOW OF SLOW MOVING SYSTEM LIFTING TO THE
NORTHEAST. WILL BE A SHARP BACK EDGE TO THE PRECIPITATION...WITH THE
NAM/GEM AND ECMWF FASTER BRINGING DRIER AIR IN AND ENDING
PRECIPITATION. HOWEVER THE GFS FORECAST BUFKIT SOUNDINGS SHOW MORE
OF A DRIZZLE PROFILE SO NO HIGHER THAN SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR
FRIDAY.

.LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY. FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM

WILL KEEP FIRST PORTION OF EXTENDED DRY WITH SHORT WAVE RIDGING
BUILDING OVER REGION SATURDAY...AND SHORT WAVES REMAINING WEST AND
NORTH THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT IN DEVELOPING NEAR-ZONAL FLOW AROUND
BROAD 500 MB RIDGING OVER THE SOUTHERN U.S. PRECIPITATION WITH SHORT
WAVE TROUGH...MAINLY IN THE WEST SUNDAY NIGHT...AND EVERYWHERE ON
MONDAY...WITH ENOUGH FORCING REACHING SOUTH FROM DEEPER TROUGH
CROSSING THE U.S/CANADIAN BORDER TO WARRANT A CHANCE ON MONDAY
NIGHT. DRY TUE WITH NW FLOW ON ECMWF...WITH POSSIBLE RIDGE RIDER MCS
COMING ACROSS PER GFS. WILL GO WITH A CONSENSUS APPROACH.

&&

.AVIATION...PERIODS OF SHOWER/THUNDERSTORMS INTO THE
EVENING...THROUGH ABOUT 6Z...THEN MID LEVEL DRYING. LOW LEVELS WILL
REMAIN MOIST AND WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR FOG/STRATUS
FORMATION...THOUGH HOPEFULLY IT WILL BE FURTHER NORTH THAN TAF SITES.
WILL MENTION STRATUS IN TAFS BUT NOT GO TOO IN VSBYS AT THIS POINT.
UPPER LOW COMES ACROSS WEDNESDAY SO MORE SHOWERS/ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS. WOULD EXPECT MOSTLY MVFR CEILINGS GIVEN ONGOING
TRENDS FROM WESTERN IOWA/EASTERN NEBRASKA.

&&

.MARINE...ROUGH EVENING WITH STRONG/SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. NORTHERN
ZONE IMPROVEMENT HAS BEEN SLUGGISH AT BEST AS WEB CAMS CONTINUE TO
SHOW SHEBOYGAN SOCKED IN PRETTY GOOD. WILL EXTEND THE FOG ADVISORY
FOR THE NORTHERN ZONE...IF WARM FRONT DOES NOT LIFT NORTH...MAY NEED
TO EXTEND THE FOG ADVISORY IN TIME...AND POSSIBLY IN AREA DEPENDING
ON WHERE BOUNDARY ENDS UP AFTER CONVECTION.

&&

.MKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
WI...DENSE FOG ADVISORY UNTIL 7 PM CDT THIS EVENING FOR WIZ052.

LM...DENSE FOG ADVISORY UNTIL 1 AM CDT WEDNESDAY FOR LMZ643.
