AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
307 PM CST MON MAR 7 2011

.VERY SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND TUESDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM.

ISOLATED TO SCATTERED LIGHT SNOW SHOWERS SEEN ACROSS NORTHEAST
PORTIONS OF THE AREA...WITHIN MODEST WARM AIR ADVECTION PATTERN.
HOWEVER...THEY ARE HAVING TROUBLE REACHING THE GROUND DUE TO A DRY
LAYER BETWEEN 3000 TO AROUND 8000 FEET.

THE MODEST WARM AIR ADVECTION IS EXPECTED TO CONTINUE ACROSS THE
AREA TONIGHT AND TUESDAY. 500MB VORTICITY MAXIMUM OVER SOUTHWEST
MINNESOTA IS EXPECTED TO SHIFT EAST TONIGHT...CLIPPING THE NORTHWEST
AND FAR NORTHERN PORTIONS OF THE AREA. IN ADDITION...WEAK TO MODEST
850MB TO 700MB LAYER FRONTOGENESIS RESPONSE FIELDS CROSS THE AREA
TONIGHT. THESE WILL BATTLE THE DRY LAYER BETWEEN 3000 AND 8000 FEET
PER AREA RUC FORECAST SOUNDINGS THIS EVENING...BEFORE AIR COLUMN
MOISTENS UP AFTER MIDNIGHT WITH WARM AIR ADVECTION. SURFACE INVERTED
TROUGH ALSO LINGERS NORTHWEST OF THE AREA TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY.

GFS/NAM/ECMWF GENERATE VERY LIGHT AND SPOTTY QPF AT BEST ACROSS THE
AREA TONIGHT. LOCAL HIGH RESOLUTION MODELS SHOW VERY LIGHT AND
SPOTTY REFLECTIVITY...WITH THE HIGH RESOLUTION RAPID REFRESH MODEL
INDICATING AN AREA OF LIGHT QPF ACROSS THE FAR SOUTHERN COUNTIES
AROUND AND AFTER 05Z TUESDAY. GIVEN MODEST UPWARD VERTICAL MOTION
THROUGH TONIGHT...AND DRY LAYER THIS EVENING...WENT WITH SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS FOR LIGHT SNOW/SNOW SHOWERS. LOWS SHOULD ONLY DROP INTO
THE UPPER 20S WITH THE LOW CLOUDS LINGERING AND WARM AIR ADVECTION.

THE CEILINGS SHOULD SHIFT NORTHEAST OUT OF THE AREA TUESDAY
MORNING...ALLOWING FOR PARTLY SUNNY SKIES. APPROACH OF PRECIPITATION
SHIELD WITH LOW FROM THE SOUTHWEST TUESDAY AFTERNOON WILL BATTLE
DRIER AIR WITH EAST NORTHEAST WINDS OVER THE AREA. CUT BACK SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS TO THE FAR SOUTHWEST AND SOUTHERN COUNTIES DURING THE
AFTERNOON WITH THE DRY AIR IN PLACE. HIGHS IN THE LOWER TO MID 40S
ARE EXPECTED INLAND WITH WARM AIR ADVECTION...WITH 30S NEAR THE LAKE
WITH ONSHORE FLOW.

.SHORT TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT.

TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM.

ONSET OF PRECIPITATION APPEARS DELAYED IN RECENT MODEL RUNS BY 3-6
HOURS. EARLY ISENTROPIC PRECIPITATION TIED TO UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE
WITH COUPLED JET...WHICH DOES NOT SET UP OVER SRN WI UNTIL 06Z
WEDNESDAY AND LINGERS THRU 12Z WEDNESDAY BEFORE LIFTING NORTH WITH
LEFT EXIT REGION OF JET MAX. THOUGH ALL MODELS SHOW 700 MB LOW
REACHING ERN KS BY 00Z WED...12Z NAM MUCH DRIER THAN 12Z GFS/00Z
ECMWF INITIALLY AT 700 MB. WILL SPLIT TIMING DIFFERENCE AND REDUCE
POPS...ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTHEAST...BETWEEN 00Z AND 03Z WED...GO
CATEGORICAL BETWEEN 03Z AND 06Z WED IN SW HALF...AND LIKELY TO THE
NORTHEAST...THEN CATEGORICAL EVERYWHERE AFTER 06Z WED. MAY HAVE TO
ADJUST BACK IF SLOWER TREND CONTINUES.

12Z ECMWF HAS SHIFTED SURFACE LOW TRACK FARTHER SOUTH TAKING IT
ACROSS THE NRN IL AND THE SRN END OF LAKE MICHIGAN DURING THE DAY
WEDNESDAY ...WHICH COULD ALLOW COOLER AIR TO REMAIN OVER FAR NW
CWA...RAISING SNOW TOTALS THERE.  HOWEVER IT KEEPS 700 MB LOW TRACK
SIMILAR TO OTHER MODELS FROM ROUGHLY A PRAIRIE DU CHIEN TO MANITOWOC
LINE WEDNESDAY...SO WILL STAY ESSENTIALLY THE SAME WITH PCPN TYPES
AND AMOUNTS FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST.SOME ELEVATED INSTABILITY NOTED
ON SOUNDINGS MAY PRODUCE CONVECTIVE PRECIPITATION OVER SE WI ON NOSE
OF DRY SLOT THAT SLIPS BY JUST TO THE SOUTH OF WI...RAISING RAIN
TOTALS THERE.

LATEST SNOW TOTAL FORECAST PRODUCES 2-6 INCH SNOWS IN THE FAR NW
CWA...TAPERING OFF RAPIDLY TO THE SE. QPF TOTALS ACROSS THE SOUTH
BETWEEN 0.90 AND 1 INCH. WILL CONTINUE TO EMPHASIZE RIVER FLOODING
POTENTIAL IN THE SOUTH WITH ESF.

WITH PRECIPITATION AND SUBTLE SHIFT SOUTHWARD OF LOW TRACK WILL LEAN
TOWARD COOLER SIDE OF GUIDANCE FOR TEMPERATURES...WITH A NON-DIURNAL
TREND TUESDAY NIGHT...WITH LOWS AROUND MIDNIGHT...THEN STEADY OR
SLOWLY RISING.

THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM.

ALL PRECIPITATION COMES TO AN END WITH EVEN THE SLOWER MODELS TAKING
MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS EAST OF STATE BY 12Z THURSDAY. OFFSHORE WINDS
MEAN NO LAKE-EFFECT POTENTIAL. WAS SOME CONCERN FOR SCATTERED
FLURRIES OR VERY LIGHT SNOW UNTIL WESTERN FLANK OF TROUGH MOVES OUT
EARLY IN THE EVENING...BUT SUBSIDENCE INVERSION KEEPS NEAR-SURFACE
INSTABILITY VERY SHALLOW WITH LITTLE MOISTURE SO WILL KEEP DRY.
UNDERCUT GUIDANCE A BIT WITH EXPECTED SHALLOW LOW STRATUS CLOUD
DECK. CLEARING AND LIGHT WINDS WITH SURFACE RIDGE OVERHEAD THURSDAY
NIGHT WILL DIP TEMPERATURES INTO THE TEENS NORTH WITH LOW TO MID 20S
SOUTH.

.LONG TERM...FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM.

RIDGING THROUGH THE DAY FRIDAY THEN PRECIPITATION CHANCES RISE WITH
A SHORT WAVE TROUGH FRIDAY LATE AFTERNOON AND FRIDAY NIGHT. A WARM
EVENT FOR US AS SURFACE LOW PASSES ACROSS NRN WI...WITH PCPN
LINGERING OVER THE EAST EARLY SATURDAY. DRY FOR THE REST OF THE
WEEKEND WITH WEAK RIDGING PASSING OVER REGION SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH
SUNDAY NIGHT. SOME CONCERN WITH LAKE EFFECT WITH NORTH-NORTHEAST
WINDS FOR A TIME ON SUNDAY...BUT DELTA T/S UNFAVORABLE WITH LOW
EQUILIBRIUM HEIGHTS...SO ONLY SOME LAKE CLOUDS EXPECTED. NEXT CHANCE
FOR PRECIPITATION COMES SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY WITH LONG WAVE
TROUGH IN BUSY NEAR-ZONAL PATTERN. MODELS TAKING SURFACE LOW ACROSS
ILLINOIS...BUT THICKNESSES RISE ON MONDAY SO NOT SUPPORTIVE OF ALL
SNOW THROUGH THE ENTIRE EVENT. ANOTHER ONE TO KEEP AN EYE ON.

&&

.AVIATION...EXPECT MVFR CEILINGS TO LINGER ACROSS TAF SITES THROUGH
TONIGHT. SOME IFR CEILINGS ARE POSSIBLE AT TIMES...BUT NOT CONFIDENT
ENOUGH TO MENTION IN TAFS. MAY SEE LIGHT SNOW/SNOW SHOWERS DURING
THE NIGHT AS WELL...BUT DID NOT MENTION IN TAFS DUE TO LOW
CONFIDENCE. NO ACCUMULATIONS ARE EXPECTED. MVFR FOG MAY OCCUR AT
KMSN AFTER 05Z TUESDAY WITH LIGHT WINDS AND MOIST NEAR SURFACE
LAYER.

CEILINGS SHOULD SCATTER OUT ACROSS TAF SITES BY 14Z TUESDAY...WITH
SCATTERED CLOUDS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY. EAST NORTHEAST
WINDS WILL INCREASE AFTER 18Z TUESDAY...WITH THE APPROACH OF STRONG
LOW PRESSURE TO THE SOUTHWEST.

&&

.MARINE...STRONG LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE NORTHEAST TOWARD THE AREA
TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...THEN ACROSS FAR SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN AND
NORTHERN ILLINOIS WEDNESDAY...BEFORE MOVING NORTHEAST WEDNESDAY
NIGHT AND THURSDAY.

BRISK ONSHORE WINDS WILL DEVELOP TUESDAY AFTERNOON INTO WEDNESDAY
MORNING. A LULL IN THE WINDS WILL OCCUR LATER WEDNESDAY MORNING INTO
MID AFTERNOON...BEFORE BRISK OFFSHORE WINDS KICK IN BY WEDNESDAY
EVENING...LASTING THROUGH THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY EVENING.

15 TO 25 KNOT WINDS ARE EXPECTED...WITH FREQUENT GUSTS TO 30 KNOTS
DURING THESE PERIODS. THESE WINDS WILL GENERATE HIGH WAVES OF UP TO
5 TO 9 FEET TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY MORNING. A SMALL CRAFT
ADVISORY WILL BE NEEDED DURING THIS TIME. SOME 35 KNOT GALES ARE
POSSIBLE EARLY WEDNESDAY...AND AGAIN LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

ANOTHER LOW PASSING NORTH OF THE AREA WILL BRING BRISK OFFSHORE
WINDS AND HIGH WAVES FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. A SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED.
