AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
1042 PM CDT WED AUG 1 2012

UPDATED AVIATION PORTION FOR 06Z TAF ISSUANCE

.UPDATE...REST OF TONIGHT.
MAIN CONCERN FOR THE REST OF TONIGHT WILL BE THE CHANCES FOR
THUNDERSTORMS. FIRST CLUSTER OF STORMS ACROSS NORTHEAST WISCONSIN
DISSIPATED IN AREA OF MINIMUM CAPE PER LATEST MESOANALYSIS.
FORECAST FOR THE REMAINDER OF TONIGHT IS NOT CLEAR CUT EVEN AT
THIS HOUR. COLD FRONT NOW ENTERING NORTHWEST WISCONSIN WITH
DEW POINTS POOLING INTO THE LOWER 70S ALONG THE FRONT. MIXED
LAYER CAPES/MOST UNSTABLE CAPES POOLING ALONG THE BOUNDARY.
LATEST GLANCE AT THE 00Z WRF SUGGEST COUPLED JET STREAK MOVING
ACROSS THE AREA LATE TONIGHT INTO THURSDAY MORNING. AREA WOULD
BE IN FAVORED RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF NORTHERN JET STREAK WHILE
THE AREA WOULD ALSO BE IN THE FAVORED LEFT EXIT REGION OF THE
SOUTHERN JET STREAK MOVING ACROSS THE MIDWEST. CURRENT EXPECTATIONS
IS THAT THUNDERSTORM DEVELOP WOULD INCREASE AGAIN AFTER MIDNIGHT
AS JET STREAK MOVES INTO THE AREA AND FRONT SLOWLY SAGS SOUTHWARD
INTO AND ACROSS THE AREA. IF THIS DOES PLAY OUT LIKE THE 00Z WRF
SUGGEST...MIDNIGHT SHIFT MAY NEED TO INCREASE RAIN CHANCES FOR
THURSDAY.

ALSO WATCHING COMPLEX OF STORMS ACROSS SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA. ONE
CELL HAS PROMPTED A WARNING ACROSS SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA. WILL NEED
TO WATCH OUR FAR SOUTH FOR POTENTIAL FOR AN ISOLATED SEVERE STORM.
WITH STEEP MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES...STILL COULD NOT RULE AN ISOLATED
SEVERE OVER THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA AS WELL FOR THE REST OF
TONIGHT.

.PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED AT 638 PM CDT WED AUG 1 2012...

SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND THURSDAY.

THUNDERSTORMS ARE THE MAIN CONCERN IN THE SHORT TERM. AN AREA OF
THUNDERSTORMS THAT WAS OVER MINNESOTA THIS MORNING INCREASED IN
COVERAGE AS IT MOVED ACROSS NORTHWEST WISCONSIN AND INTO THE
FORECAST AREA EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. THESE STORMS WERE MAKING
STEADY PROGRESS SOUTHEAST SO IT APPEARS THAT THERE WILL BE A GAP
BETWEEN ROUNDS OF CONVECTION.

THERE WAS A LARGER AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER THE
DAKOTAS THIS AFTERNOON. THIS WAS GENERALLY IN THE VICINITY OF A
FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT EXTENDED FROM SOUTHWEST ONTARIO TO SOUTHWEST
SOUTH DAKOTA AT 18Z. 12Z SOUNDINGS AT GRB/MPX/INL SHOWED STEEP MID
LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND BOTH MPX AND INL HAD QUITE A BIT MORE
MOISTURE THAN GRB. AS MOISTURE INCREASES...THE FRONT AND SOME
UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE ENERGY WILL HELP TO BRING MORE
THUNDERSTORMS TO THE AREA LATER TONIGHT.

SHOWERS AND STORMS...AND EVENTUALLY CLOUDS...WILL CLEAR OUT OF
THE FORECAST AREA FROM THE NORTH AS THE FRONT SLOWLY PUSHES
SOUTHWARD THROUGH WISCONSIN. HELD ONTO CHANCE POPS FOR THE MORNING
BUT ONLY HAVE A SLIGHT CHANCE DURING THE AFTERNOON.

LONG TERM...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT WEDNESDAY.

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY LINGER INTO THURSDAY NIGHT IN
SOUTHERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA...AND THEN THE NEXT CHANCE FOR PRECIP
WILL BE SATURDAY WITH SEVERE STORMS POSSIBLE. AFTER THAT...FLOW
BECOMES MORE ZONAL SO FCST SHOULD BE MAINLY DRY WITH ONLY A FEW
EMBEDDED SHORTWAVES RIDING OVER THE MAIN AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE.

MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW A 850MB FRONT STALLING OVER SOUTH CENTRAL
WI. SEEMS LIKE THERE WILL BE SOME WEAK FORCING IN THIS AREA AND WINDS
AT 850MB TURN MORE SOUTH AND WAA CRANKS UP. LATEST SREF ALSO
HOLDS CHANCES OVER SOUTHERN WISCONSIN FOR THURSDAY NIGHT. INCREASED
PRECIP CHANCES SOMEWHAT OVER THE CENTRAL WI AND THE FOX VALLEY TO
START INTRODUCING THIS POSSIBILITY SINCE THE OLD FCST WAS DRY.
FARTHER NORTH...THINGS SHOULD BECOME DRY QUICKLY (EVEN THOUGH A
FEW MODELS HANG PRECIP AROUND THROUGH FRIDAY) AS CAA RUSHES IN
BEHIND THE FRONT AND SUBSIDENCE TAKES OVER. LOWERED MIN TEMPS A
BIT TO THE NORTH/RAISE MINS A BIT TO THE SOUTH TO ACCOUNT FOR
RANGE IN SKY COVER AND PRECIP CHANCES.

WEAK HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH FOR FRIDAY. SOME OF
THE MODELS HAVE A WEAK 500MB SHORTWAVE SLIDING THROUGH NORTH
CENTRAL WISCONSIN. KEPT THE NORTH A BIT CLOUDIER IN CASE THIS PANS
OUT AND PER LATEST GUIDANCE.

FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY BECOMES THE MAIN CONCERN FOR THE FCST
PERIOD AS A COLD FRONT AND STRONG UPPER LEVEL LOW SWINGS ACROSS
THE AREA. TIMING OF THIS FEATURE WILL BE KEY AS SEVERE WEATHER
COULD BE AN ISSUE IF THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH DURING PEAK HEATING.
NAM SEEMS TO BE THE FASTEST...HAVING THE FRONT OVER THE FOX VALLEY
BY 18Z...WHILE THE ECMWF/GFS LAG THE SYSTEM A BIT AND DONT PUSH IT
INTO EASTERN ZONES UNTIL 00Z SUNDAY. BROUGHT SLIGHT CHANCES IN
FRIDAY NIGHT FOR FASTER SOLUTIONS...THOUGH BEST CHANCES WONT ENTER
THE AREA UNTIL SATURDAY. TEMPS AND DEWPOINTS AHEAD OF THE FRONT
SHOULD INCREASE QUICKLY AND ALLOW FOR UNSTABLE CONDITIONS DURING
THE AFTERNOON.  WIND SHEAR VALUES OF 35- 40 KTS SUGGESTS SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS WITH LARGE HAIL AND DAMAGING WINDS WILL BE POSSIBLE.

THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD EXIT OVERNIGHT SATURDAY AND COOLER AND DRIER
AIR WILL ARRIVE FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY. SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL
TEMPERATURES ARE POSSIBLE SUNDAY WITH LINGERING CLOUD COVER AND
COOLER AIRMASS IN PLACE. AFTER THAT...HIGH PRESSURE HOLDS OVER THE
GREAT LAKES AND FLOW ALOFT BECOMES ZONAL...SO DRY CONDITIONS
SHOULD DOMINATE DURING THE THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK. HIGH
PRESSURE SHOULD SLIP SLIGHTLY EAST PUTTING WI IN WARM SOUTHERLY
FLOW BY TUESDAY...SO ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES SHOULD RETURN
AROUND MIDWEEK.
&&

.AVIATION...WEAK COLD FRONT ACROSS NORTHWEST WISCONSIN WILL MOVE
INTO NORTHEAST WISCONSIN AROUND SUNRISE. THE COMBINATION OF THE
COLD FRONT AND JET STREAK MOVING ACROSS THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES
WILL BRING AN INCREASE IN SHOWERS AND STORMS OVERNIGHT. RADAR
REFLECTS THE EXPECTED TRENDS WITH SHOWERS DEVELOPING ACROSS
MINNESOTA DURING THE PAST HOUR. A MORE ORGANIZED CLUSTER OF STORMS
IS EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS CENTRAL INTO NORTHEAST WISCONSIN
OVERNIGHT. SOME QUESTIONS LINGER ON HOW QUICK THE PRECIPITAITON
WILL DIMINISH ON THURSDAY. ONCE THE MORE ORGANIZED CLUSTER EXITS
THE AREA THURDAY MORNING...SOME SCATTERED ACTIVITY WILL LINGER
INTO THURSDAY AFTERNOON BASED ON THE 00Z GFS/WRF MODEL.
PRECIPITATION SHOULD COME TO AN END LATE FRIDAY AFTERNOON OR EARLY
FRIDAY EVENING. MAY NEED TO WATCH BACKDOOR COLD FRONT PER 00Z WRF
MODEL. WINDS COULD BECOME GUSTY FOR A PERIOD OF TIME LATE THURSDAY
EVENING AT KGRB/KATW.
