AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
1259 PM CDT THU MAY 30 2013

.UPDATE...

TORNADO WATCH IN EFFECT FOR SOUTH CENTRAL WI...INCLUDING
MARQUETTE/GREEN LAKE COUNTIES THROUGH DANE AND ROCK COUNTIES AND
WEST TO SAUK AND LAFAYETTE COUNTIES. SCATTERED CONVECTION IS
DEVELOPING IN SOUTH CENTRAL WI AS THE 850MB LOW LEVEL JET POINTS
INTO THE REGION. DEEP SHEAR IS STILL WEAK...BUT LOW LEVEL SHEAR IS
HIGH IN THE 20 TO 30 KNOT RANGE. 0-3KM CAPE IS DECENT WITH VALUES OVER
100 J/KG.

ENVIRONMENT IS CONDUCIVE FOR RAPID INTENSIFICATION OF ISOLATED
STORMS. THE LOW LCL AND HIGH 0-3 AND 0-1 HELICITY VALUES SUPPORT
TORNADO POTENTIAL. LARGE HAIL IS LIKELY IN THESE ISOLATED CELLS AS
WELL. CIMSS CLOUD TOP COOLING HIGHLIGHTED AN AREA OF RAPID COOLING
IN WESTERN SAUK COUNTY AT 1225 PM AND A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING
WAS ISSUED ON IT FOR 1-INCH HAIL A FEW MINUTES AGO.

THE 16Z HRRR SHOWS SCATTERED CONVECTION OVER SOUTH CENTRAL WI
EVOLVING INTO A LINE OVER SOUTHEAST WI AROUND 21Z. THE STRONG VORT
MAX SWINGING UP HERE LATER SHOWS ANOTHER CELL/LINE EVOLUTION MOVING
THROUGH NORTHERN IL AND SOUTHERN WI THIS EVENING.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 1043 AM CDT THU MAY 30 2013/

UPDATE...

WE ARE RAMPING UP THE SEVERE THREAT FOR SOUTH CENTRAL WI FOR THIS
AFTERNOON. THERE IS A HIGH PROBABILITY OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS IN
THE UPPER MIDWEST...AND A GOOD CHANCE OF SEVERE WINDS IN SOUTH
CENTRAL WI. SOUTHERN WISCONSIN IS BACK IN THE SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE
WEATHER AREA TODAY/TONIGHT.

A STRONG SHORTWAVE CURRENTLY OVER OKLAHOMA WILL BE SWINGING UP INTO
IOWA AROUND 21Z THIS AFTERNOON. THERE IS A WEAKER SHORTWAVE OUT
AHEAD OF THAT WHICH WILL GET INTO EASTERN IOWA/SOUTHERN WI JUST
AFTER 18Z. THE LEADING SHORTWAVE WILL NEED TO BE WATCHED FOR EARLY
AFTERNOON CONVECTION OVER SOUTH CENTRAL WI. THE MAIN STRONG
SHORTWAVE WILL LIKELY DRIVE A THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX ACROSS ALL OF
SOUTHERN WISCONSIN LATE AFTERNOON EARLY EVENING.

THE SPC STORM SCALE ENSEMBLE OF OPPORTUNITY SHOWS A TONGUE OF HIGH
PROBABILITY OF UPDRAFT HELICITY VALUES GREATER THAN 25 M2/S2
STRETCHING INTO CENTRAL WISCONSIN. THE HIGHEST VALUES ARE FOCUSED
OVER THE PLAINS AND EASTERN IOWA...BUT THE 60-70 PERCENTS OVER SOUTH
CENTRAL WI ARE STILL VERY IMPRESSIVE. THE CRAVEN-WIEDENFELD
AGGREGATE SEVERE PARAMETER WHICH COMPILES INGREDIENTS FOR SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS AND GIVES A SCORE/PERCENTAGE CONTINUES TO HAVE VERY
HIGH VALUES IN SOUTHWEST AND SOUTH CENTRAL WI IN THE 75-82 PERCENT
RANGE...WITH RUC13 VALUES EVEN HIGHER. IN ADDITION...CIPS ANALOGS
SHOW A HISTORY OF SEVERE WEATHER OCCURRING WITH THE CURRENT SYNOPTIC
PATTERN.

MODE OF CONVECTION IS STILL IN QUESTION. THE MOST LIKELY MODE IS
LINES OF STORMS PRODUCING BOWING SEGMENTS. THE SHEAR IS RELATIVELY
WEAK OVER THE REGION AND UNIDIRECTIONAL. IT IS FORECAST TO
STRENGTHEN THROUGH THE AFTERNOON...AS WILL LOW LEVEL WIND
SHEAR...WHICH WOULD HELP CELLS REMAIN MORE DISCRETE OR HAVE JUST
SMALL BOWING LINE SEGMENTS. TORNADO DEVELOPMENT WILL BE POSSIBLE
GIVEN LOW LCL AND HIGH LOW LEVEL SHEAR. THE WIDESPREAD CUMULUS
CLOUDS THAT DEVELOPED THIS MORNING WILL ACTUALLY HELP THE SEVERE
SITUATION BY KEEPING US FROM MIXING OUT TOO MUCH AND ALLOWING THE
DEWPOINTS TO REMAIN HIGH.

THE 13Z HRRR IS SHOWING A MORE DISCRETE MODE OVER SOUTHERN WI EARLY
THIS AFTERNOON...WITH A SQUALL LINE/MCS DEVELOPING WITH THE BIGGER
VORT MAX LATE THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. THE QUAD CITIES NWS OFFICE
WILL BE DOING AN 18Z UPPER AIR SOUNDING TO ALLOW US TO BETTER ASSESS
THE SEVERE POTENTIAL.

AVIATION/18Z TAFS/...

EXPECT GUSTS BETWEEN 25 AND 30 KTS TO LAST THROUGH MOST OF THE DAY.
MVFR BROKEN CUMULUS CLOUDS DEVELOPED AND WILL GRADUALLY LIFT TO VFR
BY 18Z.

STORMS WILL DEVELOP OVER EASTERN IOWA AND MOVE NORTHEAST INTO
SOUTHERN WISCONSIN EARLY THIS AFTERNOON. MADISON WILL HAVE THE BEST
CHANCE FOR EARLIER THUNDERSTORMS. SOME MAY BE SEVERE. THEN ANOTHER
ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS IS EXPECTED LATE AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING AND
THESE WILL LIKELY SPREAD ALL THE WAY INTO SOUTHEAST WI.
STRAIGHT-LINE WINDS ARE THE MAIN SEVERE WEATHER THREAT.

MARINE...

GUSTY SOUTH WINDS DUE TO MIXING OVER THE LAND WILL AFFECT SHORELINE
NEARSHORE AREAS ALL DAY TODAY. MAY NEED A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY TO
HANDLE THIS. WINDS WILL BE LESS GUSTY TOWARD THE OPEN WATERS.
HOWEVER...THE TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT OVER THE LAKE WILL ALLOW
SUSTAINED WINDS TO BE IN THE 15 TO 20 KNOT RANGE TODAY. STABLE AIR
DOWN AT LAKE LEVEL WILL KEEP WAVES FROM RESPONDING TOO MUCH TO THE
GUSTY WINDS.

PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 449 AM CDT THU MAY 30 2013/

TODAY AND TONIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

CONVECTION HAS LIFTED NORTH OF THE FORECAST AREA WITH SHORT WAVE/MCV
AND ADDITIONAL SUPPORT FROM RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF UPPER JET.

MODELS DAMPEN FIRST SHORT WAVE CURRENTLY DRIVING SRN PLAINS
CONVECTION AND FOCUS ON WAVE NEAR THE PANHANDLE REGION THAT WILL
SWING UP TOWARDS IA/NEB BY 00Z FRI AS 500 MB LOW GOES NEGATIVE-TILT.
WITH COMBINATION OF CENTRAL PLAINS SHORT WAVE/MCV AND 850 MB JET MAX
AND INSTABILITY ON AREA SOUNDINGS...THOUGH CAPE VALUES MAY BE A BIT
TOO HIGH DUE TO GENEROUS SURFACE DEW POINTS...WILL FOLLOW CONSENSUS
BLEND POPS AND INCREASE PRECIPITATION CHANCES RAPIDLY THROUGH THE
MORNING. HIGH POPS CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING...THEN TAPER OFF AS
FORCING WITH WAVE AND LOW-LEVEL JET MAX LIFT OFF TOP THE NORTHEAST.

WILL HAVE TO WATCH WESTERN COUNTIES OF S CENTRAL WI FOR FLASH
FLOODING POTENTIAL AFTER RECEIVING HEAVY RAIN WITH THE CONVECTION
WEDNESDAY EVENING.

LATEST SPC DAY 1 OUTLOOK HAS SHIFTED SLIGHT RISK TO THE SOUTHWEST
OUT OF OF WISCONSIN AS FAVORABLE SHEAR FOR ROTATING CELLS LESSENS
THROUGH THE DAY...BUT AN ISOLATED WIND/HAIL MAKER NOT OUT OF THE
QUESTION.

FRIDAY AND SATURDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

SOUTHERN WISCONSIN WILL REMAIN IN THE WARM SECTOR FRIDAY AS LOW
PRESSURE OVER NORTH DAKOTA AND MINNESOTA REMAINS NEARLY
STATIONARY. SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE THUS LIKELY ONCE AGAIN. THOUGH
THE BEST LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL BE TO THE SOUTH AND EAST...STRONGER
STORMS ARE NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION WITH SIMILAR UP TO 1000 J/KG OF
SURFACE BASED CAPE...AND WIND SHEAR ACTUALLY A BIT HIGHER THAN
PREVIOUS DAYS. LOOKS LIKE BEST CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL
BE LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE NIGHT...AS ANOTHER SHORTWAVE ROTATES
THROUGH THE AREA.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE SIMILAR FRIDAY AS THURSDAY...PUSHING OR
REACHING 80 MOST PLACES. PROBABLY A BIT TRICKY NEAR THE LAKE AGAIN
UNDER SOUTHERLY WINDS...BUT MOST AREAS SHOULD SEE THE WARMER TEMPS.

WEAKENING LOW PRESSURE WILL FINALLY DRAG A COLD FRONT THROUGH
SOUTHERN WISCONSIN BY SATURDAY NIGHT. MODELS HAVE SLOWED A BIT WITH
THE FRONT...SO TEMPS AND POPS HAVE TRENDED IT BIT HIGHER WITH
SOUTHERN WISCONSIN REMAINING IN THE WARM SECTOR A BIT LONGER.

SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

MAIN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AXIS WILL MOVE THROUGH SUNDAY...POSSIBLY
BRINGING A FEW SHOWERS. COOLER AIR IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE WITH THE
SHORTWAVE...WITH TEMPERATURES FALLING BACK BELOW NORMAL.

SHOULD BE PLEASANT MONDAY UNDER HIGH PRESSURE...WITH A CHANCE FOR
SHOWERS AND STORMS RETURNING LATER TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. HIGHS
WILL LIKELY REMAIN A FEW DEGREES BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE FIRST HALF
OF NEXT WEEK.

AVIATION/12Z TAFS/...

WILL KEEP WIND SHEAR IN ALL OF THE TAFS...WITH WIND PROFILERS
PICKING UP 35 TO 40 KT WINDS BETWEEN 1500-2000 FT...UNTIL SURFACE
WINDS INCREASE WITH MIXING AFTER DAYBREAK. EXPECT SOUTHERLY GUSTS
BETWEEN 25 AND 30 KTS BY MID-MORNING AND LASTING THROUGH MOST OF
THE DAY.

INCREASED LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE AND COOLING EFFECTS OF LAST NIGHT/S
STORMS HAVE PRODUCED FOG AT KMSN WHICH SHOULD LIFT WITH INCREASING
WINDS AFTER SUNRISE. OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS THROUGH MOST OF THE DAY.

WHILE EXACT TIMING IS QUESTIONABLE...WEAK UPPER DISTURBANCE AND
ANOTHER LOW-LEVEL JET MAX APPROACHING THE UPPER MIDWEST WILL BRING
INCREASING CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS. BEST CHANCES STAY WEST OF
KMSN UNTIL MID-LATE MORNING...THEN SPREAD EAST AND INCREASE THROUGH
THE AFTERNOON. SHOWERS AND STORMS MOST LIKELY FROM LATE AFTERNOON
THROUGH THE EVENING BRINGING MVFR CIGS/VSBYS...POSSIBLY DROPPING
TO IFR WITH HEAVY DOWNPOURS OF RAIN. WILL THEN KEEP MVFR
CONDITIONS THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST.

MARINE...

SOUTH WINDS WILL INCREASE RAPIDLY AFTER SUNRISE...WITH
GUSTS TO 20 KNOTS BY MID TO LATE MORNING. PREVAILING WINDS HOLD JUST
BELOW SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA...THOUGH THERE WILL BE A FEW GUSTS TO
25 KNOTS. HAVE ADDED A CAUTIONARY STATEMENT FOR SMALL CRAFT IN THE
NEARSHORE FORECAST AND IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK FOR TODAY.

EXPECT THUNDERSTORM CHANCES TO INCREASE THROUGH THE LATE MORNING
AND AFTERNOON...BECOMING MOST LIKELY THIS EVENING. WHILE THE STORMS
ARE EXPECTED TO STAY BELOW SEVERE LEVELS...GUSTY WINDS...SMALL
HAIL AND VISIBILITY-REDUCING HEAVY RAINS ARE POSSIBLE.
