AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
315 PM CDT TUE MAY 24 2011

.VERY SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.

DRY NORTHEAST FLOW ESTABLISHED ACROSS THE AREA WITH STRATOCU MAINLY
ALONG AND NORTH OF I-94 CORRIDOR. 500 MILLIBAR RIDGE AXIS REMAINS
ORIENTED NW/SE WITHIN THE CWA AS LARGE UPPER LOW PLODS EAST THROUGH
KANSAS. ENHANCED UPPER DIVERGENCE/DIFFLUENT FLOW REMAINS TO OUR
SOUTHWEST THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY. STRONGEST 850 MILLIBAR WINDS
REMAINING TO OUR SOUTHWEST AS WELL WHICH WILL FOCUS MOISTURE
TRANSPORT MORE INTO ILLINOIS AND IOWA THAN INTO WI. WILL CARRY SOME
LOW POPS IN THE SOUTHWEST.

RIDGE AXIS SHIFTS NORTHEAST OF THE AREA WITH CWA BECOMING AFFECTED
BY VORTICITY FROM THE UPPER LOW MOVING INTO MISSOURI. 850 WIND MAX
AIMS TOWARDS CWA WITH INCREASING MOISTURE ADVECTION AND DECENT LIFT
WITH NE/SW ORIENTED BAROCLINIC ZONE LAYING OUT IN SRN WI. EXPECT
RAIN TO OVERSPREAD SRN WI FAIRLY QUICKLY DURING THE MORNING AND
PERSIST FOR MUCH OF THE DAY. SURFACE WARM FRONT PROGGD TO STAY TO
OUR SOUTH...BUT NOT TOO FAR AWAY. WOULD HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON THE
FAR SOUTHEAST CORNER OF THE CWA IN THIS REGARD. ELEVATED INSTABILITY
500-700 J/KG SO THE MENTION OF THUNDER LOOKS GOOD. 10 TO 20 UNITS OF
850-300 MILLIBAR Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE ACROSS THE AREA. COULD END UP
SEEING HIGHER QPF TOTALS WITH ANY EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS.

.SHORT TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY.

GOOD AGREEMENT IN LAST SEVERAL RUNS OF GFS ON LOW PRESSURE OCCLUSION
WRN MO AROUND 00Z/THU...TRACKING SLOWLY ENE ACROSS CENTRAL IL INTO
THE OH VLY BY THU NGT.  ALL GUIDANCE SHOWS THIS TRACK TO BE SLIGHTLY
FARTHER NORTH THAN PREVIOUS RUNS.  INITIAL SURGE OF WARM AIR
ADVECTION/Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE THAT BRINGS RAIN AND T ON WED PUSHES
NORTH OF THE AREA BY EARLY WED EVE.  HOWEVER AS UPPER LOW MOVES
EAST...INCREASING MID LEVEL DEFORMATION AND LAYER Q-VECTOR
CONVERGENCE RETURNS TO SOUTHERN WI LATER WED NGT INTO THU.  SHORT
RANGE ENSEMBLE POPS REMAIN ABOVE 90 PERCENT THRU WED NGT OVER MOST
OF THE AREA...AND ABOVE 70 PERCENT IN THE SOUTHEAST THRU THU.
STRONG FN VECTOR RESPONSE LINGERING OVER SRN WI ON THU AS WELL.
HENCE BUMPED UP POPS SIGNIFICANTLY ON THU AND KEPT DECREASING AREA
OF CHC POPS IN ERN AREAS THU NGT.

.LONG TERM...FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY.

LAST SEVERAL RUNS OF THE ECMWF HAVE TRENDED TOWARD WARMER SOLUTION
THAT HAD BEEN ADVERTISED BY LONG TERM DETERMINISTIC GFS OF SEVERAL
DAYS AGO...AND MORE PERSISTENT GFS 5DAY 5H MEANS.  ECWMF ENSEMBLE
MEANS AND UKMT HAVE ALSO SWITCHED TO THIS WARMER SOLUTION...AS
PREFERRED BY HPC...SO WL BE BUMPING UP MAXIMUM TEMPS FOR MOST OF THE
EXTENDED PERIOD.

LAST SEVERAL RUNS OF THE GFS HAVE BEEN SHOWING SLOW MOVING SHORT
WAVE TROUGH MOVING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS INTO THE WRN GTLAKES
FRI AND SAT.  ECMWF HAD BEEN SHOWING SIMILAR SOLUTION BUT HAS NOW
BACKED OFF TO MUCH WEAK S/W TROUGH THAT SUCCUMBS TO BUILDING
BROAD-SCALE RIDGING ACROSS CENTRAL CONUS EARLY IN THE WEEKEND.
THINKING THAT IN NEXT DAY OR SO...GFS WL ALSO BE TRENDING TOWARD THE
WARMER...DRIER ECMWF SOLUTION.

HENCE UPSTREAM LONG WAVE TROUGH AMPLIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO RESULT
IN INCREASING HEIGHTS AND WARM AIR SURGING INTO THE WRN GTLAKES OVER
THE WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK.  85H TEMP FLIRTING WITH 20C BY
EARLY NEXT WEEK...HENCE FIRST EXTENDED PERIOD OF SUMMER-TYPE TEMPS
LIKELY FOR SRN WI.  MAY NEAR 90 IN SOME LOCATIONS.  LAKE MICHIGAN
SHORELINE AREAS WILL BE MUCH MORE VARIABLE ON TEMPERATURES WHICH
WILL BE DEPENDENT ON OUTFLOW BOUNDARIES AND PRESSURE GRADIENT ACROSS
WI AND LAKE MI.  WARM FRONT PASSING TO THE NORTH SAT NIGHT AND SUN
MAY TRIGGER SCT CONVECTION.  OTHERWISE...EXPC CAPPING INVERSION TO
SETTLE IN SUN NGT AND LINGER THROUGH MON NGT ACTING AS LID TO
SUPPRESS CONVECTION.  WEAKENING OF CAP ASSOCIATED WITH COOL FRONT
APPROACHING FROM PLAINS ON TUE.

&&
.AVIATION...MVFR STRATOCU DECK CONFINED TO AREAS ALONG AND NORTH OF
I-94. VISIBLE SATELLITE LOOP SHOWING SOME SINGS OF THINNING. AS
SYSTEM FROM THE PLAINS DRAWS CLOSER LATER TONIGHT EXPECTING CLOUDS
TO THICKEN UP CWA WIDE WITH CEILINGS DROPPING TO IFR LEVELS ON
WEDNESDAY WITH WIDESPREAD RAIN AND GUSTY NORTHEAST WINDS.

&&
.MARINE...WITH STRENGTHENING LOW PRESSURE PASSING TO OUR SOUTH AND
SOUTHEAST OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS...PRESSURE GRADIENT WILL BE
TIGHTENING UP AND RESULTING IN A GUSTY NORTHEAST WIND REGIME. THIS
WILL RESULT IN HIGH WAVES AS WELL WITH A FAVORABLE FETCH FOR
EFFICIENT WAVE GENERATION. KENOSHA HAS ALREADY RAMPED UP TO CRITERIA
BUT PROBABLY WILL NOT SUSTAIN CRITERIA FOR THE WHOLE NIGHT. FOR NOW
WILL GO AHEAD AND START THE ADVISORY FOR THE SOUTHERN ZONE TO
ACCOUNT FOR THESE INCREASED WINDS.
