AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
425 AM CDT WED MAY 7 2014

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 425 AM CDT WED MAY 7 2014

AT 3 AM...WATCHING 2 AREAS OF CONVECTION. THE FIRST IS LOCATED
OVER EAST CENTRAL WISCONSIN. MEANWHILE THE OTHER ONE IS LOCATED
BETWEEN SIOUX FALLS SOUTH DAKOTA AND FAIRMONT MINNESOTA. BOTH OF
THESE ARE LOCATED ON THE EASTERN EDGE STRONG 700 MB MOISTURE
CONVERGENT AREA. IN ADDITION...THEY ARE LOCATED ONE THE NORTHERN
PERIPHERY OF 1000 J/KG MOST UNSTABLE CAPE. THE ARW...NMM...HOP WRF
AND SPC WRF SUGGEST THAT THE LATTER AREA OF CONVECTION WILL MOVE
EAST ALONG THE INTERSTATE 90 CORRIDOR THIS MORNING. EARLIER IN THE
NIGHT THE HRRR SUGGESTED A SIMILAR SCENARIO...BUT WITH ITS LATEST
RUN IT HAS BACKED AWAY FROM THIS SOLUTION. HOWEVER THIS SCENARIO
DOES NOT MAKE A LOT OF SENSE...SO BACKED AWAY FROM FOLLOWING IT.
TRENDED THE PRECIPITATION FORECAST FOR TODAY TOWARD A BLEND OF
ARW...NMM...HOP WRF AND SPC WRF. HOWEVER I AM A BIT CONCERNED
THAT AS IT MOVES EAST THAT THE NOCTURNAL JET WILL WEAKEN AND THAT
THE CONVECTION COULD DISSIPATE BEFORE IT GETS INTO OUR AREA.

IF THE CONVECTION DOES HAPPEN TO GET INTO OUR AREA...THE SPC RAP
SUGGESTS THAT EFFECTIVE SHEAR WILL INCREASE OVER 40 KNOTS THROUGH
07.14Z. THIS COULD RESULT IN THE DEVELOPMEMT OF SOME ELEVATED
SUPER CELLS. WE WILL HAVE TO MONITOR THIS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF
HOURS.

FOR LATER THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON...MANY OF THE MESO MODELS AND
AND NAM SUGGEST THAT THE AREA WILL REMAIN DRY. THIS IS A RESULT OF
AN ELEVATED MIXED LAYER BEING BROUGHT ISENTROPICALLY OFF OF THE
SOUTHERN PLAINS. THIS LAYER FORMS A STRONG 800 TO 600 MB CAP
ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. MEANWHILE THE GFS CONTINUES TO TRY AND
DEVELOP STRATIFORM PRECIPITATION BELOW THE CAP. THIS LOOKS VERY
UNLIKELY BECAUSE ITS SATURATED THE AIR MASS BELOW 800 MB TOO MUCH.
DUE TO THIS...STAYED WITH A DRY FORECAST FOR THE TIME PERIOD.

TONIGHT...MANY OF DETERMINISTIC RUNS ARE GENERATING PRECIPITATION
ACROSS MUCH OF THE FORECAST AREA. HOWEVER BUFKIT SOUNDINGS
CONTINUE TO SHOW A FAIRLY STRONG CAP ALONG AND SOUTH OF INTERSTATE
94. THIS IS GOOD AGREEMENT WITH WHAT SHOWS UP IN THE ARW AND SPC
WRF. DUE TO THIS...WENT WITH MUCH LOWER POPS THAN WHAT NORMALLY
WOULD BE EXPECTED SOUTH OF INTERSTATE 94. IF THUNDERSTORMS DID
DEVELOP...IT LOOKS TO BE SO HIGH /BASES OF 2 TO 3 KM/ THAT YOUR
SHEAR IS GREATLY DECREASED TO LESS 25 KNOTS...SO THERE WILL NOT BE
SUPERCELLS. HOWEVER THE CAPE PROFILE IS MUCH FATTER THAN THIS
MORNING AND THIS COULD POTENTIALLY RESULT IN SOME LARGE HAIL.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 425 AM CDT WED MAY 7 2014

ON THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT...THE 07.00Z MODELS CONTINUE TO
SHOW THAT A PLUME OF SUBTROPICAL MOISTURE WILL SURGE NORTHWARD
AHEAD OF THE LONG WAVE TROUGH. EMBEDDED WAVES IN THIS FLOW WILL
RESULT IN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WHICH WILL USE UP MUCH OF THE
CAPE PRIOR TO THE ARRIVAL OF A MUCH MORE FAVORABLE SHEAR PROFILE.
DUE TO THIS...STILL THINKING THAT THE BEST SEVERE WEATHER THREAT
WILL REMAIN WEST OF INTERSTATE 35. WITH THIS PLUME NOT ARRIVING
UNTIL MID MORNING...LOWERED THE PRECIPITATION PROBABILITIES
BETWEEN 08.12Z AND 08.15Z.

FROM SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY...A SERIES OF SHORT WAVE
TROUGHS WILL EJECTED OUT OF THE LONG WAVE OVER THE WESTERN UNITED
STATES. THIS WILL BRING ROUND OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS INTO
THE AREA. WITH STILL SOME TIMING DIFFERENCES AND SUBTLE
DIFFERENCES IN THE MODELS...STAYED WITH THE MODEL CONSENSUS.

TOWARD THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK...IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE A
PATTERN SHIFT AS THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW BECOMES NORTHWEST AND WEST
ACROSS THE EASTERN UNITED STATES. LOOKS LIKE HIGHS MAY RANGE FROM
THE UPPER 40S TO MID 50S...AND LOWS WILL RANGE FROM THE MID 30S TO
MID 40S.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z WEDNESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1141 PM CDT TUE MAY 6 2014

SAW ONE BAND OF SHRA/TS DEVELOP EAST OF KLSE EARLIER THIS
EVENING...BUT THAT HAS SINCE MOVED INTO EAST CENTRAL WI. FAIRLY
QUIET AT THE MOMENT UPSTREAM PER RADAR MOSAIC AND SURFACE
OBSERVATION IN ADVANCE OF A WARM FRONT LIFTING NORTHWARD OUT OF
THE CENTRAL PLAINS. MODELS PUSHING THE WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY INTO
THE AREA WEDNESDAY...TO ALONG I-94 BY WEDNESDAY EVENING. A FEW OF
THE MODELS STILL DEVELOPING SHRA/TS ACTIVITY OVERNIGHT WITH SURGE
OF MOISTURE/LIFT OUT AHEAD OF THE FRONT...BUT STILL A FAIR AMOUNT
OF UNCERTAINTY THOUGH BETWEEN THE MODELS ON COVERAGE OF THIS
SHRA/TS ACTIVITY AND WHETHER KLSE/KRST WILL BE AFFECTED. WILL
MAINTAIN VCSH/VCTS IN THE TAFS IN THE 06-13Z TIMEFRAME.
OTHERWISE...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED. BACKED OFF ON MVFR
STRATOCUMULUS IN THE MORNING DUE TO LACK OF WIDESPREAD
PRECIPITATION AND BOUNDARY LAYER MOISTENING. PLAN ON VFR
CONDITIONS THROUGH THE REST OF THE PERIOD AS WELL WITH ANY
CONVECTION ASSOCIATED WITH THE WARM FRONT EXPECTED TO REMAIN NORTH
OF THE KRST/KLSE TAF SITES.

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 425 AM CDT WED MAY 7 2014

FLOODING CONTINUES ALONG THE MAIN STEM OF THE MISSISSIPPI
RIVER...WITH LOCATIONS CRESTING FROM NORTH MCGREGOR. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ON THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT WILL PRODUCE ANYWHERE
FROM A HALF INCH TO ONE INCH. THIS WILL LIKELY SLOW THE FALL FOR
LOCATIONS NORTH OF MCGREGOR...AND MAY INCREASE CRESTS SLIGHTLY
SOUTH OF MCGREGOR.
