AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
353 AM CST WED JAN 30 2013

.SHORT TERM...TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT
353 AM CST WED JAN 30 2013

MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS THIS PACKAGE...WINTER STORM/SNOW AMOUNTS/
WINDS TODAY...TEMPERATURE TRENDS AND INTERMITTENT -SN/FLURRY
CHANCES TONIGHT THRU FRI NIGHT.

06Z SURFACE ANALYSIS HAD THE SFC LOW DEEPENING OVER LOWER MI WITH
ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO MT. PRESSURE GRADIENT WAS
INCREASING ACROSS THE REGION...WITH NORTH TO NORTHWEST WINDS
BRINGING IN COLDER AIR AND ERODING THE WARM LAYER ALOFT. -SN IN
THE FCST AREA BEING REPORTED AS FAR SOUTHEAST AS KOLZ/KOVS AS OF
0630Z. WV IMAGERY SHOWED A VIGOROUS SHORTWAVE LIFTING THRU THE
CENTRAL/SOUTHERN PLAINS AND TOWARD THE REGION. MAIN DEFORMATION BAND
OF SNOW WITH THIS FEATURE WAS LIFTING FROM NORTHEAST KS/SOUTHEAST
NEB AND MUCH OF THE SOUTHWEST HALF OF IA...MAKING STEADY BUT DELAYED
PROGRESS NORTHEAST TOWARD THE AREA.

NO GLARING ERRORS NOTED WITH 30.00Z MODEL INITIALIZATIONS. GIVEN THE
PASSING STRONG MID LEVEL TROUGH TODAY/TONIGHT AND FLOW TRANSITIONING
TO NORTHWEST...SOLUTIONS AS SIMILAR AS CAN BE EXPECTED FOR TODAY
THRU FRI NIGHT. DPROG/DT OF 500MB HGTS AT 30.00Z SHOWED THE SLOWER/
STRONGER MODEL RUNS OF 28.00Z AND 29.00Z VERIFIED BEST WITH THE
TROUGH OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS. ALL WERE VERY GOOD WITH THE EAST/WEST
NOAM COAST RIDGING. ECMWF WITH THE BETTER RUN-TO-RUN CONSISTENCY.
MODEL CONSENSUS TRENDS SLOWER AS THE MAIN TROUGH/ENERGY MOVES INTO
THE NORTHEAST CONUS BY 12Z THU. TREND CONTINUES A BIT STRONGER WITH
A NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE TO DROPS ACROSS MN/WI ON THU.
CONSISTENCY GOOD FOR THU NIGHT THRU FRI NIGHT AS NORTHWEST FLOW
ALOFT BECOMES ESTABLISHED OVER THE REGION...BUT DIFFERENCES ON
DETAILS OF MINOR SHORTWAVES IN THIS FLOW. ECMWF WITH THE BETTER
OVERALL RUN-TO-RUN CONSISTENCY TODAY INTO FRI NIGHT. CHECK OF OBS
VS. MODEL DATA AT 06Z SHOWED A CONSENSUS LOOKED BEST AS THE SFC LOW
DEEPENED OVER LOWER MI. PER WV IMAGERY MODELS ALL LOOK REASONABLE
WITH THE SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROTATING AROUND THE EAST SIDE OF THE
TROUGH AND TOWARD THE UPPER MIDWEST. ECMWF/NAM LOOKED BEST WITH THE
00-06Z PRECIP ACROSS THE MID/UPPER MS VALLEY. FAVORED A MODEL/
ENSEMBLE CONSENSUS WEIGHTED TOWARD THE ECMWF WITH ITS BETTER RUN-TO-
RUN CONSISTENCY AND PERFORMANCE WITH THE 00-06Z MID-CONUS PRECIP.
SHORT TERM FCST CONFIDENCE AVERAGE TO GOOD THIS CYCLE.

IN THE SHORT TERM...TODAY IS ALREADY PROBLEMATIC DUE TO AN EASTWARD
SHIFT OF THE MODEL CONSENSUS WITH QPF /SNOW/ PRODUCTION AND
INHERITED HEADLINES. DEFORMATION BAND OF SNOW ASSOCIATED WITH THE
STRONG MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE AND MDT/STRONG 850-500MB FN CONVERGENCE
STILL TRANSLATES ACROSS THE AREA TODAY. WITH ALL THE MID MS/LOWER
OH VALLEY CONVECTION DRIVING THE TROUGH/COLD FRONT EAST...AND
INTERCEPTING A LOT OF THE MOISTURE...SHORTWAVE PV ADVECTION/
DIVERGENCE ALOFT AND LOWER/MID LEVEL FN FORCING APPEAR TO HAVE LESS
MOISTURE TO WORK WITH THAN EARLIER MODEL RUNS INDICATED. ANOTHER
THING WORKING AGAINST HEAVIER QPF/SNOW THRU TODAY IS FASTER MOVEMENT
OF THE FORCING ACROSS THE AREA. WHAT LOOKED LIKE IT MIGHT BE 18HRS
OF FORCING/LIFT NOW LOOKS MORE LIKE 9-12HRS AS THE SHORTWAVE PASSES.
ALL THIS TRENDS TOWARD LESS SNOW FOR THE AREA EARLY THIS MORNING AND
TODAY.

HAVE ALREADY CANCELED ADVISORIES AND REDUCED WINTER STORM WARNING TO
ADVISORY ALONG/NORTHWEST OF A NEW HAMPTON IA-LA CROSSE-BLACK RIVER
FALLS LINE. WARNING CONTINUES TO LOOK GOOD ACROSS THE SOUTHEAST 1/3
TO HALF OF THE FCST AREA. MAY NOT QUITE GET 6 INCHES OF SNOW...BUT
BLOWING/DRIFTING LATER AS NORTHWEST GRADIENT WINDS CONTINUE TO
INCREASE ALONG/SOUTHEAST OF A KOLZ-VIROQUA-NECEDAH WI LINE LOOKING
TO MAKE FOR MISERABLE TRAVEL TODAY IN THOSE AREAS. SYSTEM EXITS
QUICKLY DURING THE MID/LATE AFTERNOON HOURS AND MAY BE ABLE TO
CANCEL SOME HEADLINES EARLY...ESPECIALLY WEST OF THE MS RIVER.

ARCTIC AIR POURS INTO THE AREA BEHIND THE DEPARTING LOW TONIGHT.
GRADIENT REMAINS TIGHT FOR NORTHWEST WINDS OF 10 TO 20 MPH INTO THU
MORNING AS TEMPERATURES HEAD TO NEAR AND BELOW ZERO...PRODUCING
WINDS CHILLS OF 20-25 BELOW OVER THE WEST 1/3 OF THE FCST AREA. WILL
ISSUE A WIND CHILL ADVISORY ALONG/WEST OF A WABASHA MN TO NEW
HAMPTON IA LINE FOR LATE TONIGHT/THU MORNING.

THE NORTHERN STREAM SHORTWAVE DROPS ACROSS THE AREA LATE TONIGHT/THU
WITH DEEP CYCLONIC CONVERGENCE...RATHER DEEP MOISTURE AND STEEP LOW
LEVEL LAPSE RATES ON THU. RAISED -SN CHANCES TO 60 PERCENT ACROSS
THE NORTH END OF THE FCST AREA AND 20-50 PERCENT ELSEWHERE ACROSS
THE NORTHEAST HALF OF THE FCST AREA FOR TONIGHT/THU...FOR OCCASIONAL
VERY LIGHT SNOW THAT MAY SEE SOME 1/2 INCH ACCUMULATIONS OF FLUFF.

EVEN COLDER AIRMASS SETTLES OVER THE AREA THU NIGHT WITH 925MB TEMPS
IN THE -20C TO -26C RANGE...DEPENDING ON SPECIFIC MODEL DETAILS.
WINDS WILL BE LIGHTER...MORE IN THE 5-10MPH RANGE BUT TEMPS AROUND
12Z FRIDAY LOOKING TO BE IN THE -8F TO -16F RANGE. WIND CHILLS THU
NIGHT/FRI MORNING HEADED INTO THE -20 TO -35 RANGE AND ANOTHER WIND
CHILL ADVISORY WILL BE NEEDED. WILL NOT COMPLICATE HEADLINE PICTURE
ANY FURTHER AND LEAVE THIS ONE TO BE ISSUED LATER.

DETAILS DIFFER AMONG THE MODELS BY FRI/FRI NIGHT BUT ALL DROP
ANOTHER STRONGER SHORTWAVE SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES...ALONG
WITH A WEAKER ONE SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS. THIS SETS
OFF A ROUND OF MDT TO STRONG 925-700MB WARM ADVECTION LIFT ACROSS
THE REGION. THE QUESTION IS HOW MUCH MOISTURE WILL THERE BE AND
WHERE WILL THE STRONGER OF THE ISENTROPIC LIFT/VERTICAL MOTION
OCCUR. MODEL CONSENSUS KEEPS THE SFC-850MB LAYER DRY FRI SO WILL
LEAVE FRI DRY FOR NOW. SMALL -SN CHANCE FRI NIGHT REASONABLE WITH
BETTER INDICATION FOR SFC TO AT LEAST 800MB SATURATION BEING PUSHED
INTO THE COLD AIRMASS OVER THE AREA.

FAVORING A MODEL/ENSEMBLE CONSENSUS LEAD BY THE ECMWF...USED A BLEND
OF THE NUMERICAL TEMPERATURE GUIDANCE WEIGHTED TOWARD THE ECMWF FOR
HIGHS/LOWS TODAY THRU FRI NIGHT. TEMPS TO FALL TODAY AS THE ARCTIC
AIRMASS SPREADS IN...WITH HIGHS AROUND 12-13Z THIS MORNING. FOR THU
NIGHT LOWS...IF WINDS BECOME LIGHT/VARIABLE CALM OVER THE FRESH SNOW
COVER IN THE -20C TO -26C 925MB AIRMASS...LOWS IN SOME OF THE
SHELTERED VALLEYS/NORMALLY COLDER LOW LAYING AREAS COULD DROP INTO
THE -20F TO -30F RANGE.

.LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...
353 AM CST WED JAN 30 2013

NOT A LOT OF TIME SPENT IN THE DAY 4-7 PERIOD AGAIN THIS MORNING
WITH ALL THE ISSUES AND HEADLINES IN THE SHORT TERM. 30.00Z MEDIUM
RANGE MODELS IN RATHER GOOD AGREEMENT SAT FOR YET ANOTHER STRONGER
NORTHWEST FLOW SHORTWAVE TO DROP SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE REGION...THIS
ONE ACROSS MN/WI...OVER WHAT WILL STILL BE A RATHER COLD AND EASIER
TO SATURATE AIRMASS/COLUMN. SMALL -SN CHANCE SAT LOOKS REASONABLE.
GOOD CONSENSUS FOR THE FLOW TO FLATTEN A BIT/BECOME MORE WEST-
NORTHWEST SUN INTO MON WITH YET ANOTHER SHORTWAVE TO DROP SOUTHEAST
ACROSS THE REGION. MAY YET NEED SMALL -SN CHANCES OVER MUCH OF THE
FCST AREA SUN DEPENDING ON DETAILS/WHERE THIS WAVE AND ATTENDANT SFC
LOW TRACK. AREA REMAINS UNDER NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT MON/TUE BUT
MODELS DIVERGING WITH TIMING OF UNIDENTIFIABLE SHORTWAVES THRU THE
FLOW. FCST CONFIDENCE IN THE LONG TERM LOOKS AVERAGE. GIVEN THIS AND
NOT A LOT TIME PICKING THRU THE DETAILS...LITTLE IF ANY CHANGES MADE
TO THE THE MODEL/ENSEMBLE CONSENSUS DATA IN THE DAY 4-7 FCST GRIDS.

.AVIATION...THROUGH 06Z THURSDAY
1105 PM CST TUE JAN 29 2013

THE SURFACE LOW HAS MOVED SLOWLY OUT OF NORTHWEST ARKANSAS INTO
SOUTH CENTRAL MISSOURI THIS EVENING. THIS HAS RESULTED IN A SLOW
NORTHWARD PUSH OF THE SNOW FROM SOUTHWEST IOWA INTO CENTRAL IOWA.
THE 30.00Z NAM AND 30.02Z HRRR CONTINUE TO HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON
HOW THE PRECIPITATION HAS BEEN EVOLVING THIS EVENING WITH BOTH
MODELS SUGGESTING THAT KLSE HAS A BETTER CHANCE OF GETTING INTO
THE PRECIPITATION THAN KRST DOES. WITH THE NORTHEAST MOVEMENT OF
THE SNOW...IT IS EXPECTED TO START MOVING INTO KLSE LATE TONIGHT
AND KRST AROUND 12Z WITH VISIBILITIES GOING DOWN TO MVFR. AS THE
MODERATE TO STRONG FRONTOGENESIS IN THE 750-500 MB LAYER COMES
ACROSS WEDNESDAY MORNING...THE SNOW SHOULD INTENSIFY BUT WITH THE
BEST ISENTROPIC UP GLIDE ON THE 290K SURFACE REMAINING SOUTHEAST
OF BOTH TAF SITES...NOT EXPECTING THE HEAVIEST BAND OF SNOW TO
IMPACT EITHER TAF SITE. BOTH SITES SHOULD STILL SEE IFR CONDITIONS
BUT THE VISIBILITY SHOULD BE LOWER AT KLSE. KRST WILL SEE
IMPROVEMENT STARTING ALREADY LATE WEDNESDAY MORNING AND IN THE EARLY
AFTERNOON OR KLSE AS CONDITIONS GO BACK TO MVFR. SOME FLURRIES
EXPECTED TO HANG ON DURING THE AFTERNOON WITH VFR VISIBILITY BUT
LOOK FOR THE CEILINGS TO REMAIN MVFR FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE
PERIOD. THE TIGHT GRADIENT AROUND THE SURFACE LOW WILL PRODUCE
SUSTAINED NORTH TO NORTHWEST WINDS OF 15 TO 20 KNOTS WITH GUSTS OF
25 TO 30. THE NAM BUFKIT SOUNDINGS SUGGEST THE LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES
WILL REMAIN STEEP ENOUGH TO KEEP THE GUSTS GOING AFTER SUNSET
WEDNESDAY EVENING.
