AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
202 PM CST SAT NOV 17 2012

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND SUNDAY.

LOW CLOUDS JUST ABOUT GONE OVER FAR NE WISC. TEMPS WARMED UP
QUICKLY AS BOUNDARY LAYER MIXED. HIGH CLOUDS OVER MN AND IA...
ASSOCIATED WITH SYSTEM IN THE WEST...MOVING INTO REGION. HIGH
CLOUDS AND A LITTLE MORE WIND OVERNIGHT SHOULD PREVENT WIDESPREAD
LOW CLOUD/FOG FORMATION.

MID OR HIGH CLOUDS SHOULD BE AROUND FOR SUNDAY...BUT ENOUGH
MIXING EXPECTED TO BOOST TEMPS AGAIN INTO THE 50S ACROSS MUCH OF
AREA. 17/12Z GFS MOS GUIDANCE WAS RUNNING TOO COOL WITH 3-HOURLY
TEMPS THIS AFTN...SO THINK GUID TEMPS FOR SUNDAY SEVERAL DEGS TOO
COOL. FCST TEMPS CLOSER TO NAM MOS.

.LONG TERM...SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT SATURDAY...MAIN FCST CONCERNS
ARE TEMPERATURES THROUGHOUT THE PERIOD...AND SMALL PCPN CHCS ON MONDAY
AND MONDAY NIGHT.

HAVE CONTINUED THE SMALL POPS FOR MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT...AS A
S/W TROF AND WEAK PACIFIC COLD FRONT MOVE THROUGH THE REGION. MOISTURE
AND FORCING ARE NOT IMPRESSIVE...SO ONLY EXPECTING A FEW HUNDREDTHS
OF AN INCH AT ANY GIVEN LOCATION. WITH MILD AIR IN PLACE...PCPN TYPE
SHOULD BE ALL RAIN.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING CLEARING SKIES BY TUESDAY AFTERNOON. AS
THIS HIGH SHIFTS EAST ON TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...RETURN FLOW
WILL BRING ANOTHER SURGE OF MILDER AIR INTO THE REGION. WEDNESDAY
IS SETTING UP AS THE WARMEST DAY OF THE WEEK...WITH MID TO UPPER 50S
ACROSS MOST OF THE CWA. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE A 60 DEGREE
READING IN THE TYPICAL WARM SPOTS IN CENTRAL WI.

MODELS HAVE COME INTO GOOD GENERAL AGREEMENT CONCERNING A COLD
FRONTAL PASSAGE ON THANKSGIVING DAY AND EVENING...BUT LITTLE PCPN
IS EXPECTED DUE TO A LACK OF MOISTURE. THIS FRONT IS EXPECTED TO
BRING TEMPS BACK TO NORMAL FOR THE END OF THE WEEK.
&&

.AVIATION...CIGS AND VSBYS IMPROVING WITH VFR CONDITIONS BECOMING
THE NORM ACROSS MOST OF NE WI FOR THE AFTERNOON. VFR WILL THEN
CONTINUE INTO SUNDAY. S WINDS WILL INCREASE A BIT AHEAD OF NEXT
WEATHER SYSTEM.
&&

.GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
NONE.
