AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
507 AM CST FRI DEC 6 2013

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 359 AM CST FRI DEC 6 2013

MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS ARE ON WIND CHILLS EARLY THIS MORNING AND
AGAIN LATE TONIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING. FOCUS THEN TURNS TO SNOW
ON SUNDAY WHEN 2 TO 4 INCHES OF ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED.

ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE DAKOTAS AND EASTERN
MONTANA WAS SLIDING EAST INTO THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI RIVER VALLEY
EARLY THIS MORNING AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE UNSEASONABLY COLD
TEMPERATURES. AT 3 AM...TEMPERATURES WERE IN THE SINGLE DIGITS
ACROSS MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA. FURTHER WEST ACROSS CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN MINNESOTA TEMPERATURES HAVE PLUMMETED INTO THE SINGLE
DIGITS BELOW ZERO...WITH A FEW LOCATIONS FALLING INTO THE TEENS
BELOW ZERO. WEST WINDS OF 10 TO 17 MPH WERE PRODUCING WIND CHILL
READINGS IN THE -15 TO -20 DEGREE RANGE.

WEST WINDS OF 10 TO 15 MPH ARE EXPECTED ACROSS THE AREA TODAY AND
WILL CERTAINLY ADD A BITE TO THE AIR. HIGHS TODAY WILL ONLY BE IN
THE SINGLE DIGITS TO TEENS ABOVE ZERO. LOCATIONS OVER SOUTHEAST
MINNESOTA AND NORTH CENTRAL WISCONSIN WILL SEE THE COLDEST
TEMPERATURES. PLAN ON WIND CHILLS HOVERING IN THE -10 TO -15
DEGREE RANGE THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY. OTHERWISE PLAN ON MOSTLY
SUNNY SKIES TODAY. FORECAST SOUNDINGS ARE SHOWING SOME LOW LEVEL
MOISTURE CENTERED AROUND 925 MB. IF CLOUDS DEVELOP IN THIS LAYER
TODAY A FEW SNOW FLURRIES WILL BE POSSIBLE. THE HIGH EDGES CLOSER
TO AREA TONIGHT SETTING THE STAGE FOR A BITTERLY COLD NIGHT. LOW
TEMPERATURES TONIGHT WILL FALL INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS BELOW ZERO
ACROSS MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA. WIND CHILL READINGS OVER
SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA...PORTIONS OF NORTHEAST IOWA...AND NORTH
CENTRAL WISCONSIN WILL PLUMMET INTO THE -20 TO -25 DEGREE RANGE
AND A WIND CHILL ADVISORY WILL BE NEEDED.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 359 AM CST FRI DEC 6 2013

COLD HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN IN CONTROL ON SATURDAY WITH MOSTLY
SUNNY SKIES AND COLD TEMPERATURES EXPECTED. PLAN ON HIGH
TEMPERATURES IN THE SINGLE DIGITS TO TEENS ABOVE ZERO. A SHORTWAVE
WILL MOVE OUT OF THE CENTRAL ROCKIES AND INTO THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI
RIVER VALLEY LATE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING. CLOUDS WILL
INCREASE FROM WEST TO EAST ACROSS THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT AS THE
SHORTWAVE APPROACHES. ISENTROPIC LIFT INCREASES ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA LATE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY SUNDAY MORNING ON THE 270-290K
SURFACES AND WILL LEAD TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF LIGHT SNOW. THE
DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE WILL BE 200-300 MB DEEP AND WILL RESULT IN A
FLUFFY SNOW. LIFT...OMEGA...WITHIN THE DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE
ISN/T OVERLY IMPRESSIVE AND IS MAINLY LOCATED JUST ABOVE THE
DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE MAINLY IN THE 700-400 MB LAYER. THE SNOW
WILL BE FALLING ACROSS MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA BY LATE SUNDAY
MORNING AND WILL PERSIST THROUGH SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THE WAVE WILL
THEN FINALLY EXIT THE REGION LATE SUNDAY NIGHT. PLAN ON SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS OF 2 TO 4 INCHES BEFORE THE SNOW TAPERS OFF SUNDAY
NIGHT. THE SNOW WILL LEAD TO SLICK TRAVEL CONDITIONS AND WINTER
WEATHER ADVISORIES WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED. SLIGHTLY WARMER AIR WILL
BE DRAWN INTO THE FORECAST AREA WITH THIS SYSTEM...WITH HIGHS ON
SUNDAY CLIMBING INTO THE TEENS TO LOWER 20S. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT
TIGHTENS OVER THE AREA MONDAY MORNING INTO MONDAY AFTERNOON AND
COULD LEAD TO SOME BLOWING AND DRIFTING OF THE FRESHLY FALLEN
SNOW. ANOTHER WAVE PUSHES INTO THE REGION MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY MORNING AND WILL BRING A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SNOW WITH IT AS
IT MOVES THROUGH. ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE THEN RETURNS WEDNESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY NIGHT. WILL HAVE TO KEEP A VERY CLOSE EYE ON
TEMPERATURES WED/WED NIGHT AS FORECAST MODELS ARE TRENDING COLDER
DURING THIS TIMEFRAME. HIGHS ON WEDNESDAY WILL LIKELY STRUGGLE TO
GET OUT OF THE SINGLE DIGITS TO LOWER TEENS...WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS
FALLING INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS BELOW ZERO. FLOW ALOFT ATTEMPTS TO
GO ZONAL BRIEFLY LATE NEXT WEEK WITH HIGHS WARMING SLIGHTLY INTO
THE TEENS TO LOWER 20S.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z SATURDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 507 AM CST FRI DEC 6 2013

AN ARCTIC AIRMASS CONTINUES TO INFILTRATE THE TAF SITES. THIS
AIRMASS FOR THE MOST PART IS DRY...THOUGH THERE APPEARS TO BE SOME
MOISTURE LINGERING BETWEEN 2000-2500 FT ABOVE THE GROUND.
OCCASIONALLY A SCT DECK HAS AFFECTED THE TAF SITES REFLECTING THE
MOISTURE. ALL MODELS INDICATE THAT THIS MOISTURE STAYS GENERALLY
IN PLACE FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS...THUS KEPT A SCT020 IN THE TAFS.
IT IS ENTIRELY POSSIBLE FOR BRIEF PERIODS OF A BKN MVFR
CEILING...BUT BOTH TIMING AND CONFIDENCE OF THEM IS TOO LOW TO
INCLUDE IN THE TAFS. OTHERWISE...A 10 KT NORTHWEST WIND LOOKS TO
PERSIST AT BOTH SITES. SOME GUSTS AROUND 15 KT ARE POSSIBLE.
