AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI 1116 AM CST SAT JAN 21 2012 .AVIATION/18Z TAFS/...VFR SKC FOR MUCH OF THE CWA INTO THE EVENING HOURS. ONLY CONCERN AREA IS FROM NEAR KMKE SOUTH TO KENW WHERE LAKE EFFECT MVFR CLOUDS WILL SKIRT THIS AREA. LOW LEVEL RH PROGS HAVE A PRETTY GOOD HANDLE ON LOCATION OF STRATUS FIELD TO OUR SOUTH AND SOUTHWEST. THIS WILL START COMING BACK LATER TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY AS FLOW TURNS MORE SOUTHERLY. BUFKIT SOUNDINGS SHOW CONSIDERABLE MOISTENING IN THE LOW LAYERS...SO WHILE THE INCREASE WILL INITIALLY BE MVFR...AS MOISTURE INCREASES...WILL SEE IFR AND SOME LIFR TAKING SHAPE AS WELL. WILL HOLD OFF ON ANY MENTION OF DZ/FZDZ IN THE TAFS THROUGH 18Z. BETTER POTENTIAL AFTER 18Z...BUT CONFIDENCE LOW AT THIS POINT. TEMPS PROGGD IN MANY AREAS TO RISE ABOVE FREEZING MARK BY ONSET TIME...ESPECIALLY IN EASTERN WI. PC && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 317 AM CST SAT JAN 21 2012/ TODAY AND TONIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM NEAR LAKE MICHIGAN THE MAIN ISSUE WILL BE HANDLING LAKE EFFECT TRENDS. NORTHEAST WINDS IN SHALLOW LAYER FROM 975 MB TO 900 MB. LAPSE RATES ARE NOT TO STEEP WITH AROUND 3 C/KM AT MILWAUKEE BUT NEAR 6C/KM NEAR KENOSHA AT 09Z BUT LAPSE RATES INCREASE TO NEAR 9C/KM AT 18Z WITH INVERSION HEIGHT AROUND 3 THSD FT. LOW LEVEL FLOW WEAKENS AND BECOMES MORE EAST. THEREFORE EXPECT THE SNOW BAND NEAR KENOSHA TO CONTINUE TO WEAKEN AND THEN EVENTUALLY BECOME MORE DIFFUSE WITH GENERAL LIGHT SNOW/FLURRIES NEAR THE LAKE. HRRR SHOWS THE LAKE BAND PUSHING SOUTH THEN WEAKENING BUT INCREASING IN COVERAGE. NAM SHOWS SOMETHING SIMILAR. ELSEWHERE MOISTURE TRAPPED BLOW DEVELOPING INVERSION AROUND 3 THSD FT SHOULD SLOW ANY CLEARING FROM THE WEST. FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW SOME CLEARING POTENTIAL OVER THE FRINGES OF THE STRATUS SHIELD BUT THEN WITH THE EAST FLOW...LOW LEVELS MOISTEN SO STRATUS/STRATOCUMULUS COULD EXPAND AGAIN. MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE OVER THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES EXITS TO THE EAST WITH MID LEVEL DRYING. STRONG SHORTWAVE OVER THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST WILL REACH THE ROCKIES TONIGHT. LOW/MID LEVEL WARM AIR ADVECTION BEGINS BUT THE 850 TO 700 MB LAYER IS FAIRLY DRY SO NOT EXPECTING ANY PRECIPITATION. BY MIDNIGHT SOUNDINGS SHOW TEMPERATURES AROUND 800 MB ALREADY WARMING ABOVE 0 CELSIUS OVER MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA...AND ABOVE 0 C BY SUNRISE. NAM SHOWS SATURATION BELOW 925 MB BUT DOES NOT APPEAR DEEP ENOUGH MOIST LAYER FOR FREEZING DRIZZLE. SUNDAY AND MONDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM MODELS SLOWLY COMING INTO BETTER AGREEMENT FOR THE SUNDAY/MONDAY LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. THE GFS HAS TRENDED TOWARD THE SLOWER ECMWF AND CANADIAN SOLUTIONS...WHILE THE NAM REMAINS THE QUICKEST. LEANED FORECAST PRETTY HEAVILY TOWARD CONSISTENT ECMWF. OVERALL...LOOKS LIKE A CHANCE FOR WARM ADVECTION PRECIP ON SUNDAY. MID LEVELS ARE QUITE DRY IN SOUNDINGS...WITH VERY LITTLE ICE EXPECTED. WITH SFC TEMPS BELOW FREEZING TO START THE DAY...KEPT MENTION OF FREEZING RAIN. MENTIONED RAIN A CHANCE FOR RAIN AS WELL IN THE AFTERNOON AS TEMPS WARM ABOVE FREEZING. ONLY REASON SNOW WAS LEFT IN FOR SUNDAY IS THAT SOME MODELS DO SHOW SOME ICE CRYSTAL POTENTIAL ABOVE THE DRY LAYER. DRY LAYER LOOKS LIKE IT WILL GENERALLY DRY UP ANY ICE...BUT POTENTIAL FOR SEEDING IS THERE IF DRY LAYER IS OVERDONE IN MODELS. PRECIP AMOUNTS EXPECTED TO BE LIGHT DURING THE DAY SUNDAY...SO ANY ICING WOULD BE FAIRLY LIMITED. SFC LOW EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...ALONG WITH BEST SHOT FOR PRECIP FROM THIS STORM. ENOUGH OVERLAP BETWEEN MODELS TO BUMP POPS UP TO CATEGORICAL. LOOKS LIKE MAINLY RAIN EAST...MIXING WITH SNOW WEST. MAY SEE EVENTUAL CHANGE OVER TO SNOW WEST TO EAST BEGINNING LATE SUNDAY NIGHT OR MONDAY MORNING...WITH SOME LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS POSSIBLE. WITH DEWPOINTS EXPECTED TO GET INTO THE MID 30S OVER THE SNOWPACK...AND THE SFC LOW COMING RIGHT OVERHEAD...MENTIONED PATCHY FOG IN THE EAST SUN NIGHT AND MON MORNING. TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM LOOKS FAIRLY QUIET TUESDAY THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK. MODELS DEPICTING A SERIES OF WEAK SHORTWAVES TO ROLL THROUGH DURING THIS PERIOD...POSSIBLY BRINGING SOME FLURRIES OR LIGHT SNOW AT TIMES. NEAR NORMAL TEMPS TUESDAY EXPECTED TO WARM TO A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL FOR WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. AVIATION/12Z TAFS/... MAINLY MVFR CIGS OVER FAR SOUTH CENTRAL AND PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN. LAKE BAND PUSHING SOUTH BUT STRONGEST RADAR RETURNS HAVE BEEN STAYING OFF SHORE. AS LOW LEVEL FLOW BECOMES MORE EAST LAKE EFFECT WILL EXPAND IN COVERAGE BUT SHOULD BE FAIRLY LIGHT...ALTHOUGH SOME AREAS COULD SEE SOME VERY LIGHT ACCUMULATIONS. CIGS/VSBYS WILL BE MAINLY MVFR. THE LOW CLOUD SHIELD MAY ERODE SOMEWHAT FROM THE WEST...BUT THEN WOULD TEND TO EXPAND AGAIN AS EAST FLOW INCREASES THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE. IFR POTENTIAL LATER TONIGHT AS EAST/SOUTHEAST FLOW INCREASES. MARINE... A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED LATE TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES EAST AND EXITS THE NORTHERN PLAINS. BRISK SOUTH WINDS AND HIGH WAVES WILL PREVAIL SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY NIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL THEN SHIFT THE WINDS TO THE WEST FOR LATE SUNDAY NIGHT AND INTO MONDAY NIGHT. THE WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE BRISK AND GUSTY AND SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY PERSIST FOR THIS TIME PERIOD. && .MKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WI...NONE.
