AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
1000 AM CST SAT FEB 19 2011

.UPDATE...HAVE UPGRADED ALL OF SOUTHERN WI TO WINTER STORM
WARNING. IMPRESSIVE ISENTROPIC MOISTURE...4-5 G/KG AND VERTICAL
MOTION...Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE 30-50 UNITS. INITIAL LLJ WILL
ENHANCE FORCING LATE TONIGHT IN THE SOUTHWEST CWA AND EXPAND
ACROSS THE REST OF SOUTHERN WI VERY EARLY SUNDAY MORNING. A
RENEWED LLJ KEEPS THE FORCING GOING ALL DAY SUNDAY. THE RENEWED
LLJ IS ASSOCIATED WITH LOW SPINNING UP ACROSS IOWA. WETZEL
INGREDIENT PLOTS ARE OFF THE CHARTS SHOWING CONVECTIVE POTENTIAL.
PARTS OF THE I-94 CORRIDOR AND SOUTH COULD SEE OVER A QUARTER
INCH OF ICE WITH THE TRICKIER THERMAL PROFILE THERE...WITH SNOW
TOTALS POSSIBLY UP TO 20 INCHES IN PARTS OF THE NORTHERN CWA WHERE
PRECIP TYPE SHOULD REMAIN ALL SNOW.

COLLAR

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 353 AM CST SAT FEB 19 2011/

TODAY AND TONIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM TO HIGH

COLD ADVECTION WILL END EARLY THIS MORNING FOLLOWED BY A RIDGE OF
HIGH PRESSURE MOVING ACROSS WI TODAY. MOS GUIDANCE HIGH TEMPS IN THE
LOWER 30S LOOKS REASONABLE.

THE LARGE UPPER TROUGH CURRENTLY MOVING INTO THE WEST COAST WILL
MOVE INTO MUCH OF THE WRN USA BY 12Z SUN WITH STRONG CYCLOGENESIS
EXPECTED OVER THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS. THE ASSOCIATED STRONG WARM
ADVECTION AND FRONTOGENESIS REGION WILL MOVE INTO THE SW CWA BEFORE
SUNRISE SUNDAY. WILL START AS ALL SNOW THROUGH AT LEAST 12Z SUN WITH
A COUPLE INCHES OF SNOW EXPECTED BY 12Z IN THE FAR SW CWA.

SUNDAY AND MONDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

BIG STORM STILL ON TRACK TO MOVE THROUGH THE AREA SUNDAY. PRETTY
GOOD CONFIDENCE THAT SRN WI WILL SEE A DECENT AMOUNT OF PRECIP
WITH IMPRESSIVE WAA/ISENTROPIC LIFT AHEAD OF THE LOW. SOUNDINGS
EVEN SHOWING SOME ELEVATED CAPE...SO THREW IN SOME ISOLATED
THUNDER IN THE SOUTH HALF OF THE CWA. RAISED POPS EVEN MORE...BUT
SOME QUESTIONS REMAIN WITH LOW TRACK AND PRECIP TYPE. MODELS IN
BETTER AGREEMENT WITH SFC LOW TRACK...GENERALLY TAKING IT JUST
SOUTH OF CHICAGO. THIS IS A SHIFT SOUTH FROM 24 HOURS AGO...WITH
A CONTINUED SOUTHERN TREND IN THE NEWEST 06Z NAM. STILL A BIT OF
UNCERTAINTY AS TO FINAL TRACK OF THE LOW...WHICH WILL IMPACT
PRECIP TYPE.

TAKING CONSENSUS OF MODEL LOW TRACK JUST SOUTH OF CHICAGO...PRECIP
WOULD SEEM TO START AS SNOW WEST TO EAST EARLY SUNDAY MORNING.
STRONG WAA WILL PRODUCE A PRETTY GOOD INITIAL BURST OF
SNOW...EVENTUALLY CREATING A SOLID ABOVE FREEZING LAYER...WHICH
NAM AND GFS SOUNDINGS SUGGEST WILL BRING A PERIOD OF FREEZING RAIN
TO THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA INTO THE AFTERNOON.
STILL THINK THE FAR NORTH WILL LIKELY REMAIN SNOW THE
LONGEST...WHILE THE FAR SOUTH MAY SEE A PERIOD OF ALL RAIN BY
LATER SUNDAY MORNING. INITIAL BURST OF SNOW MAY BRING A QUICK 3 TO
5 INCHES IN THE SOUTH...BEFORE PRECIP TYPE CHANGES TO FREEZING
RAIN OR RAIN. PERSISTENT SNOW ACROSS THE NORTH WILL LIKELY
ACCUMULATE QUITE A BIT...CURRENTLY THINKING AROUND 8 TO 12 INCHES.

WITH SOUTHERN WISCONSIN STILL RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MIXY
THERMAL STRUCTURE OF THIS STORM...FUTURE MODEL RUNS BEAR CLOSE
WATCHING AS CONTINUED SMALL SHIFTS IN THE LOW TRACK WILL HAVE
RELATIVELY LARGE IMPACTS ON PRECIP TYPE AND SNOW AMOUNTS.

THE STORM WILL WIND DOWN ON MONDAY...AS THE UPPER TROUGH SWINGS
THROUGH. HAVE CHANCE FOR SNOW THROUGH THE DAY...WITH TEMPS FALLING
OR HOLDING STEADY AS CAA KICKS IN.

TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING QUIET CONDITIONS ON TUESDAY...WITH TEMPS A
FEW DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. WAA RETURNS FOR WEDNESDAY...PUSHING HIGHS
BACK TO AROUND NORMAL AND PROBABLY BRINGING AN INCREASING IN CLOUDS
AND MAYBE SOME LIGHT PRECIP TO THE WEST.

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...LOW TO MEDIUM

THE CANADIAN AND ECMWF IN DECENT AGREEMENT IN PUSHING ANOTHER STORM
THROUGH THE AREA THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT...WHILE THE GFS IS NOW
PROPOSING A DIFFERENT SOLUTION. FAVORED MORE CONSISTENT
ECMWF/CANADIAN SOLUTION. THE SFC LOW TRACK THROUGH OR TO THE SOUTH
OF CHICAGO WOULD SUGGEST ALL SNOW FOR SOUTHERN WISCONSIN...BUT
THICKNESS VALUES INDICATE SOME MIX POSSIBLE. WENT WITH RAIN/SNOW MIX
DURING THE DAY...THEN ALL SNOW OVERNIGHT. DECENT LOOKING
STORM...WORTH KEEPING AN EYE ON OVER THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS.

KEPT CHANCE FOR SNOW GOING FRIDAY...PER SLOWER GFS SOLUTION.

AVIATION...HIGH PRESSURE AND VFR CONDITIONS TO PREVAIL TODAY AND
MUCH OF TNT. STRONG LOW PRESSURE WILL THEN DEVELOP OVER THE CENTRAL
HIGH PLAINS TONIGHT AND MOVE TO THE IA AND MO BORDER BY 00Z MON. A
STRONG BAND OF WARM ADVECTION AND FRONTOGENESIS WILL BRING MDT TO
HEAVY SNOW TO SRN WI SUN AM WITH A TRANSITION TO FREEZING
RAIN...RAIN...SLEET...AND SNOW FOR THE TAF SITES FOR THE REMAINDER
OF THE DAY. THE SNOW WILL BEGIN AT KMSN FROM 09-12Z SUN AND 12-15Z
FOR KMKE. LIFR TO VLIFR CIGS AND VSBYS ARE EXPECTED WITH THE SNOW
AND MIXED PCPN.

MARINE...THE BRISK NWLY WINDS AND COLD ADVECTION WILL CEASE THIS
AM...THUS THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL EXPIRE AT 6 AM. A RIDGE OF
HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN MOVE ACROSS LAKE MI THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING WITH LIGHT WINDS AND LOW WAVE HEIGHTS. STRONG LOW PRESSURE
TO THEN DEVELOP OVER THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS TONIGHT AND SLOWLY MOVE
ACROSS ILLINOIS AND THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH
MONDAY NIGHT. BRISK AND GUSTY E-NELY WINDS AND HIGH WAVES WILL MAKE
