NEW INFORMATION ADDED TO UPDATE SECTION

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 530 PM CST TUE FEB 26 2013

GOING TO TAKE MANITOWOC COUNTY UP TO A WARNING...AND DRIVE THE
ADVISORY 1 TIER W...AS WELL AS N INTO DOOR COUNTY. NOT SURE OF
EXACT SNOW AMNTS YET...BUT GIVEN THE STG WINDS...EVEN THE 4-6
INCHES OF SNOW IN MTW COUNTY LOOKS LIKE WARNING MATERIAL.

COORD W MKX.

UPDATED PRODUCT SUITE OUT ASAP.

UPDATE
ISSUED AT 452 PM CST TUE FEB 26 2013

GETTING THE FEELING TRAVEL CONDITIONS ACRS E-C WI ARE GOING TO GO
DOWNHILL VERY QUICKLY THIS EVENING. THE STG NE WINDS ALREADY
GENERATING ENOUGH BLOWING AND DRIFTING OF THE EXISTING SNOW TO
CREATE PROBLEMS IN OPEN AREAS. HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL REPORTS OF
TRAVEL PROBLEMS ON HWY 29 GOING W OUT OF GREEN BAY. THAT/S
ESPECIALLY IMPRESSIVE BECAUSE THE EXISTING SNOWCOVER IS RATHER OLD
AND HAS PROBABLY BEEN CAPPED OFF BY ABOVE FREEZING TEMPERATURES
THE PAST COUPLE AFTERNOONS. THE PROBLEMS WE ARE HAVING ALREADY DO
NOT BODE WELL FOR WHAT WILL HAPPEN WHEN THE MAIN SNOW BAND ARRIVES
THIS EVENING.

THAT BAND WAS VERY IMPRESSIVE OVER SRN WI THIS AFTN. ONCE PCPN
STARTED AT SITES OVER SRN WI...IT ALMOST BECAME MODERATE OR HEAVY
SNOW. BAND WL PROBABLY WEAKEN AS IT SHIFTS N...BUT STILL THINK IT
WILL PACK A CONSIDERABLE PUNCH...AT LEAST EARLY IN THE EVENING.
AND COMBINED WITH THE WIND...EXPECT TRAVEL CONDITIONS TO
DETERIORATE RAPIDLY. LUCKILY...WE WILL BE ABLE TO GET THE
AFTERNOON COMMUTE OUT OF THE WAY BEFORE THE SNOW HITS.

FCST WAS JUST RECENTLY ISSUED AND IN GOOD SHAPE. MAIN GOAL NOW IS
TOP RAISE AWARENESS OF THE BAD TRAVEL CONDITIONS THAT ARE LIKELY
TO DEVELOP QUICKLY DURING THE EVENING.
&&

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY
ISSUED AT 331 PM CST TUE FEB 26 2013

MAIN AND ONLY FCST CONCERN IS SNOW POTENTIAL OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS AS A STRONG...ALBEIT SLOWLY WEAKENING...SYSTEM HEADS TOWARD
THE ERN GREAT LAKES.

THE 20Z MSAS SFC ANALYSIS INDICATED THE STRONG LOW PRES TO BE
CENTERED OVER SRN IL...WHILE A BROAD AREA OF HI PRES EXTENDED FROM
THE NRN PLAINS E-NE INTO QUEBEC. AS THE LOW PRESSURE MOVES NE...
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT CONTS TO TIGHTEN AND WINDS HAVE ALREADY
GUSTED OVER 40 MPH AT TIMES OVER E-CNTRL WI THIS AFTERNOON. RADAR
MOSAIC SHOWED THE NRN EDGE OF THE MAIN PCPN SHIELD WAS APPROACHING
THE WI/IL BORDER...THUS IT WL BE DRY OVER ALL OF NE WI THRU THE
EVENING RUSH HOUR.

MDLS HAVE MAINTAINED THE NWD SHIFT IN PCPN FROM LAST NGT'S RUN AS
THE SFC LOW TRACKS NEWD INTO NRN SECTIONS OF INDIANA BY 12Z WED.
EVEN THO BETTER FORCING/LIFT SHIFT EAST TOWARD THE ERN GREAT LAKES
TNGT...PRIMARY DEFORMATION ZONE APPEARS TO BE SETTING UP FROM
CNTRL IA THRU SW WI/NW IL TO SE WI WITH E-CNTRL WI ON THE NRN
FRINGE. IN ADDITION TO THE SNOW...BLUSTERY NE WINDS WL HELP TO
LOWER VISIBILITIES...ALTHO THE HIGHER WATER CONTENT OF THE SNOW
WOULD LIMIT THE AMOUNT OF BLOWING/DRIFTING. AFTER COLLABORATION
WITH MKE...HAVE DECIDED TO ISSUE A WINTER WEATHER ADVY FOR BROWN...
CALUMET...KEWAUNEE AND MANITOWOC COUNTIES WHERE 1 TO 2 INCHES OF
ACCUMULATION WL COMBINE WITH THE GUSTY WINDS TO MAKE TRAVELING
DIFFICULT LATE TNGT INTO THE MORNING COMMUTE. WL ALSO ISSUE A SPS
FOR THE REST OF E-CNTRL WI TO RAISE AWARENESS THAT THE DRIVE TO
WORK/SCHOOL COULD BE A SLOW/SLOPPY GO. THE REST OF THE FCST AREA
WL SEE POPS RAISED WITH ONLY N-CNTRL WI APPEARING TO AVOID ANY
SNOW THREAT. DUE TO THICKENING CLOUDS AND APPROACH OF SNOW...HAVE
RAISED MIN TEMPS A COUPLE OF DEGS FROM THE PREVIOUS FCST.

LIGHT SNOW WL CONT TO IMPACT MOST OF THE FCST AREA THRU WED AS THE
SFC LOW SLOWLY SHIFTS TOWARD THE ERN GREAT LAKES. CYCLONIC FLOW/
PIECES OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY ROTATING AROUND THE BROAD UPR LOW WL
BRING ENUF FORCING TO SUSTAIN THE SNOW. ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATIONS
OF AN INCH OR TWO ARE POSSIBLE OVER E-CNTRL WI WHICH WOULD BRING
TOTALS INTO THE 2 TO 4 INCH RANGE. BLUSTERY N-NE WINDS WL ALSO
PERSIST THRU THE DAY MAKING FOR MORE BLOWING/DRIFTING OF THE NEW
SNOW. MAX TEMPS SHOULD ONLY BE ABLE TO REACH THE MID 30S AT BEST.

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY
ISSUED AT 331 PM CST TUE FEB 26 2013

CYCLONIC FLOW WITH THE DEPARTURE OF THE MID WEEK SYSTEM WILL
LINGER LIGHT SNOW OVER MAINLY EAST CENTRAL WISCONSIN WEDNESDAY.
COLD AIR ADVECTION WITH THE NORTHERLY FLOW WILL PROVIDE A FEW SNOW
SHOWERS OVER VILAS COUNTY THROUGH THURSDAY. OTHERWISE A RIDGE OF
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN FROM THE NORTH WILL PROVIDE A QUIET
PATTERN FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK INTO THE WEEKEND. A FEW CLIPPERS
IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW MAY DROP INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS...BUT
EXPECTED TO STAY MAINLY WEST OF THE AREA.

MEDIUM RANGE MODELS ARE SHOWING SOME CONSENSUS NEXT WEEK WITH A
NORTHWEST ROCKIES SHORT WAVE BREAKING DOWN THE WESTERN RIDGE AND
WORKING INTO THE MIDWEST EARLY NEXT WEEK FOR THE NEXT CHANCE OF
PRECIPITATION.

TEMPERATURES DURING THIS PERIOD WILL CONTINUE TO BE AT OR BELOW
SEASONAL NORMALS.

.AVIATION...FOR 00Z TAF ISSUANCE
ISSUED AT 533 PM CST TUE FEB 26 2013

CONDITIONS WL DETERIORATE VERY RAPIDLY IN E-C WI THIS EVENING AS
SNOW OVERSPREAD THE AREA...WITH LIFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED. MVFR
CIGS WL PERSIST ACRS CENTRAL WI...WITH VFR CONDITIONS IN THE N.
CONDITIONS OVER C/NRN WI WL BE MUCH SLOWER TO DETERIORATE...BUT
SHOULD EVENTUALLY DO SO...MAINLY DUE TO CLDS RATHER THAN SN.
