AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
302 PM CST MON JAN 16 2012

.SHORT TERM...TONIGH AND TUESDAY.

LOW AMPLITUDE FLOW WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE NORTHERN CONUS. A
SHORT WAVE WAS FORECAST TO MOVE ACROSS THE PLAINS AND INTO THE
UPPER GREAT LAKES REGION ON TUESDAY. LOW PRESSURE OVER THE CENTRAL
PLAINS WILL MOVE ALONG THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY THAT WAS PUSHING
THROUGH THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON...AND REACH NORTHERN INDIANA BY
TUESDAY MORNING. MODELS SHOWED TWO AREAS OF QPF...ONE WITH THE
SHORT WAVE AND THE OTHER WITH THE LOW...COMBINING INTO ONE AREA LATE
TONIGHT/EARLY TUESDAY. LOW LEVEL MOISTURE...DRY MID LEVELS AND
WEAK LIFT COULD BRING SOME FREEZING PRECIPITATION TO THE AREA
UNTIL AROUND 09Z WHEN DEEPER MOISTURE ARRIVES.

QPF VALUES DID NOT LOOK VERY HIGH AND DPROG/DT OF OUTPUT FROM THE
COBB ALGORITHM...OFF 12Z MODEL RUN...KEPT SNOW TOTALS BELOW 3
INCHES THROUGH THE END OF THE EVENT. THINK LAKE ENHANCEMENT IS
POSSIBLE IN EAST CENTRAL WISCONSIN AS THE LOW PASSES TO THE SOUTH
BUT IT SHOULD NOT LAST FOR VERY LONG. DELTA T VALUES OVER LAKE
SUPERIOR IN COLD ADVECTION BECOME RATHER LARGE BUT WIND DIRECTION
DOES NOT STAY FAVORABLE FOR LAKE EFFECT SNOW IN VILAS COUNTY FOR
LONG. HAVE THE HIGHEST SNOW TOTALS THERE...BUT STILL KEPT IT
SHORT OF ADVISORY CRITERIA.

ONLY HAVE HIGHS ON TUESDAY ABOUT A DEGREE WARMER THAN OVERNIGHT
LOWS DUE TO STRONG COLD ADVECTION BEHIND THE DEPARTING SYSTEM.

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT MONDAY. NORTHWEST UPPER
FLOW AND A FEW SHORTWAVES MOVING THROUGH DURING THE REST OF THIS
WEEK. MODELS THEN SUGGEST A RETURN TO A SPLIT FLOW PATTERN EARLY
NEXT WEEK. THERE ARE SUBSTANTIAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GFS AND
ECMWF SOLUTIONS WITH THE SYSTEMS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT.

A SHORTWAVE TROUGH MOVING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT WILL NOT HAVE
MUCH MOISTURE TO WORK WITH BUT SHOULD HAVE SUFFICIENT DYNAMICS TO
PRODUCE A DUSTING OR HALF INCH OF SNOW. COLD AIR BEHIND THE SYSTEM
SHOULD PRODUCE SOME LAKE EFFECT SNOW IN VILAS COUNTY. ANOTHER
UPPER TROUGH SWINGS THROUGH FRIDAY WITH SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN THE FLATTER GFS AND A ECMWF WITH A SHARPER UPPER TROUGH
AND A FURTHER NORTH AND STRINGER SURFACE LOW MOVING ACROSS THE
OHIO VALLEY. THE QPF ASSOCIATED WITH THE ECMWF LOOKS TOO FAR NORTH
SO JUST KEPT A CHANCE OF SNOW FOR FRIDAY. THE NEXT NEXT SYSTEM FOR
SATURDAY NIGHT ALSO HAS BIG MODEL DIFFERENCES.

TEMPERATURES THE REST OF THIS WEEK WILL BE COLDER THAN WHAT WE
HAVE HAD FOR MOST OF THIS WINTER BUT ONLY WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY
LOOK TO BE COLDER THAN NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.
&&

.AVIATION...DRY COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE TODAY. THERE WERE MOSTLY MVFR
CIGS WITH AREAS OF MVFR VSBYS IN FOG/HAZE NORTHWEST OF THE FRONT.
MODELS SHOWED AN INCREASE IN LOW LEVEL MOISTURE FROM THE SOUTH
LATE THIS AFTERNOON/THIS EVENING WITH LIGHT SNOW OR DEVELOPING
OVERNIGHT. WEAK LIFT COULD BRING SOME FREEZING DRIZZLE TO PARTS OF
CENTRAL AND EAST CENTRAL WISCONSIN WHEN THE PCPN FIRST BEGINS.
PCPN WILL SPREAD NORTH WITH THE SYSTEM PASSING TO THE SOUTH AS
ANOTHER AREA OF PCPN ASSOCIATED WITH AN UPPER SHORT WAVE MOVES IN
FROM THE NORTHWEST. THESE TWO AREAS OF PCPN SHOULD COMBINE DURING
THE NIGHT INTO ONE LARGE AREA. EXPECT MOSTLY MVFR CIGS OVERNIGHT
WITH SCATTERED IFR CIGS...ALONG WITH MVFR AND AREAS OF IFR VSBYS
IN SNOW...AND/OR FREEZING DRIZZLE EARLY.
