AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
332 AM CST THU JAN 12 2012

.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY...

MAIN CONCERN ON CURRENT HEADLINES AS SYSTEM EVOLVES OVER AREA NEXT
24 HOURS. MODELS VERY SIMILAR HANDLING SYSTEM. SNOW A BIT SLOW TO
GET STARTED WITH MOST VISBYS STILL 2 MILES OR GREATER. THOUGH...FOR
THE MOST PART TIMING OF HEADLINES STILL GOOD. NO CHANGES PLANNED.

GIVEN SLOWER START AND TRENDS OF MODELS TO MOVE THINGS OUT A BIT
FASTER OVERNIGHT TONIGHT HAVE TRIMMED BACK A BIT ON SNOW TOTALS...TO
4 TO 6. HAVE SOME CONCERN IN EAST FOR EVENING COMMUTE AS LIFT
MAXIMIZED ATTM. WINDS WILL ALSO BE PICKING UP AS SURFACE LOW
DEEPENS OVER EASTERN LOWER MI. WILL HIGHLIGHT IN ADVISORY.

ADVISORY STILL LOOKS GOOD FOR VILAS AS LAKE-EFFECT POTENTIAL LIMITED
EARLY. SHEAR IN THE LOWER LAYERS/SFC TO 850/ SEEMS WILL LIMIT BAND
DEVELOPMENT. DRIER AIR MOVES IN ON FRI. INVERSION HEIGHTS ALSO NOT
THAT HIGH THROUGH EVENT...AND LOWER TO BELOW 3K FEET FRI MORNING.

.LONG TERM...FRI NGT THRU NXT WED. LATEST PATN SHIFT TO AN UPR RDG
OVER THE BERING STRAIT/UPR TROF OVER BRITISH COLUMBIA WL BRING A
FAST...NEAR ZONAL FLOW ACROSS THE CONUS NXT WEEK. THE TROFFING
ACROSS SW CANADA WL ALLOW FOR ARCTIC AIR TO SETTLE OVER THE NRN
TIER OF STATES AND THIS SHOULD BRING TEMPS FOR THE MOST PART BLO
NORMAL TO NE WI. PCPN CHCS TO BE TIED TO A WEAK CLIPPER SAT AND A
STG CDFNT MON/MON NGT.

WEAK RDG OF HI PRES DRIFTS ACROSS WI FRI NGT ALLOWING SKIES TO
BECOME PARTLY CLDY...IF NOT MOSTLY CLR FOR A TIME BEFORE HI CLOUDS
ARRIVE LATER IN THE NGT AHD OF A CLIPPER LOW PRES SYSTEM MOVING
INTO THE NRN PLAINS. THE COMBINATION OF CLEARING SKIES...LGT WINDS
AND FRESH SNOWPACK WL LEAD TO A COLD NGT OVER NE WI WITH MIN TEMPS
FALLING BLO ZERO IN THE NORTH...ZERO TO 5 ABV CNTRL AND 5 TO 10
ABV EAST.

THIS CLIPPER IS FCST TO BE VERY WEAK AS IT DIVES SE THRU THE
MIDWEST TOWARD THE MO VALLEY ON SAT. THIS TRACK WOULD KEEP BEST
FORCING AND LIFT GENERALLY ACROSS THE SW HALF OF WI...SO AM NOT
EXPECTED MUCH IN THE WAY OF ACCUMULATION FROM THIS SYSTEM. HAVE
MAINTAINED A SLGT CHC POP MAINLY FOR CNTRL WI WITH PERHAPS SOME
FLURRIES OVER PARTS OF NRN AND ERN WI. MAX TEMPS TO BE BLO NORMAL
WITH READINGS GENERALLY IN THE 15 TO 20 DEG RANGE.

THE CLIPPER QUICKLY DEPARTS TOWARD THE MID-ATLANTIC STATES SAT
NGT...THUS ANY PCPN WOULD BE OVER WITH BY SAT EVENING. OTHERWISE...
ANOTHER RDG OF HI PRES TO BUILD INTO THE WRN GREAT LKS WITH SKIES
BECMG PARTLY CLDY TOWARD DAYBREAK. ENUF CLOUDS INITIALLY TO PREVENT
TEMPS FROM DROPPING OFF TOO QUICKLY...THUS EXPECT READINGS TO BE
MAINLY IN THE SINGLE DIGITS ABV ZERO. AS THE SFC RDG SLIDES TO OUR
EAST ON SUNDAY...RETURN FLOW DVLPS ACROSS WI WITH SOUTHERLY WINDS
STARTING TO INCREASE A BIT BY THE AFTERNOON. TIGHTER PRES GRADIENT
TO REMAIN TO OUR WEST AHD OF A STG AREA OF LOW PRES PUSHING ACROSS
THE CANADIAN PRAIRIE. ONSET OF WAA COULD BRING SOME MID/HI CLOUDS
TO NE WI...BUT PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES SHOULD SUFFICE WITH MAX TEMPS
WARMING CLOSE TO NORMAL LEVELS (LWR TO MID 20S).

THE ERN TRACK OF THE SFC LOW ACROSS SRN CANADA WL DRAG A RATHER
STG CDFNT INTO WI BY MON. GUSTY S-SW WINDS PRECEDING THE CDFNT
SHOULD BE ABLE TO BRING ENUF GULF MSTR NWD SUCH THAT POPS WL BE
NECESSARY. SUFFICIENT WAA AHD OF THE FNT COULD MAKE PCPN TYPE AN
ISSUE OVER PARTS OF CNTRL/E-CNTRL WI...ESP IF THE PCPN DVLPS EARLY
ENUF ON MON WHEN SFC TEMPS ARE STILL BLO FREEZING. TOO EARLY YET
TO DETERMINE IF FREEZING RAIN AND/OR SLEET ARE PSBL...THUS HAVE
LEFT THE RAIN/SNOW MIX POTENTIAL PER PREV FCST. MON WL BE THE
WARMEST DAY OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD WITH MAX TEMPS TOPPING OUT
AROUND 30 NORTH...TO THE MID 30S E-CNTRL WI.

SNOW CHCS TO CONT THRU MON NGT AS THE CDFNT PUSHES EAST...TO BE
FOLLOWED BY THE APPROACH OF A SHRTWV TROF. STG CAA TO OVERSPREAD
WI AS WELL LATER MON NGT INTO TUE AS 8H TEMPS PLUMMET INTO THE -6
TO -12C RANGE BY 12Z TUE AND -14 TO -20C RANGE BY 00Z WED. AS
WINDS TURN NW AND INCREASE...EXPECT TO SEE THE LK EFFECT MACHINE
CRANK UP WITH SNOW SHWRS REACHING VILAS CNTY BY TUE. WL NEED TO
WATCH TRAJS CAREFULLY IN THE COMING DAYS...BUT EARLY INDICATIONS
ARE THAT WINDS TO BE MORE W-NW VERSUS A MORE FAVORABLE N-NW. THIS
WOULD KEEP BETTER SNOW ACCUMULATIONS NORTH OF THE MI BORDER.

LATEST 00Z GFS AND ECMWF BRING A SUBTLE UPR RDG TO THE WRN CONUS
TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF NXT WEEK WHICH ALLOWS FOR UPR TROFFING TO
OCCUR OVER THE GREAT LKS. BOTH MDLS BRING A PRETTY GOOD SHOT OF
ARCTIC INTO WI WITH 8H TEMPS FALLING TO AROUND -20C ON THE ECMWF...
AROUND -28C ON THE GFS. THIS WOULD KEEP MAX TEMPS ON WED IN THE
TEENS. DID NOT PLACE ANY POPS IN THE FCST...BUT WOULD NOT BE
SURPRISED TO SEE AT LEAST SCT SNOW SHWRS OR FLURRIES ACCOMPANY THE
COLD AIR ACROSS WI AS THE BAROCLINIC ZONE TO BE SET UP OVER WI.
&&

.AVIATION...FOR 18Z TAFS. VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL ACROSS THE
AREA INTO THE AFTERNOON. BUT LOW CLDS WITH MVFR AND A FEW IFR
CIGS AREN/T TOO FAR BEHIND THE FRONT...SO EXPECT A RAPID
DETERIORATION IN CONDITIONS ACRS THE W LATER TDA/THIS EVENING.
&&

.MARINE...WILL UPGRADE TO A GALE FOR TONIGHT PERIOD NORTH BAY AND
LAKE  OFF DOOR CTY AS DIRECTION IDEAL FOR FUNNELING EFFECTS.
