AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
1115 PM CDT WED MAY 7 2014

.SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 313 PM CDT WED MAY 7 2014

MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS THIS PERIOD...SHRA/TSRA CHANCES/PRECIP
AMOUNTS AND SEVERE STORM POTENTIAL CENTERED ON THU.

DATA ANALYSIS AT 18Z HAD LOW PRESSURE OVER EASTERN NEB WITH A WARM
FRONT EAST ALONG ABOUT US HWY 20 ACROSS IA INTO NORTHERN IL. SUMMER-
LIKE AIRMASS SOUTH OF THIS FRONT WITH SOUTH WINDS...MID-DAY TEMPS OF
80-85F AND DEW POINTS OF 60-65F. SB CAPE OF 2-3K J/KG ACROSS
CENTRAL/SOUTHERN IA IN THIS CAPPED AIRMASS. NORTH OF THE FRONT TEMPS
MOSTLY IN THE 60S WITH DEW POINTS IN THE 40S WITH EAST WINDS. MU
CAPE ABOVE THE INVERSION NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT IN THE 1K-2K J/KG
RANGE...HELPING TO FUEL THE SHRA/TSRA IN THE AREA THIS MORNING AND
IN EASTERN WI EARLY THIS AFTERNOON.

07.12Z MODELS LOOK TO HAVE INITIALIZED WELL...BUT FOR GFS ABOUT
5F TOO HIGH WITH SFC DEWPOINTS IN THE MOISTURE PLUME COMING NORTH
THRU THE EASTERN PLAINS/MID MS VALLEY. AT LEAST AT
500MB...SOLUTIONS QUITE SIMILAR AND CONVERGING TOWARD A COMMON
CONSENSUS TONIGHT THRU THU NIGHT AS THE SOUTHERN ROCKIES
TROUGH/ENERGY MOVES EAST THEN LIFTS TOWARD THE UPPER MIDWEST.
STILL PLENTY OF LOWER LEVEL MESO- SCALE DETAIL DIFFERENCES ALREADY
LATE TONIGHT...WHICH HAVE IMPACTS ON THE SENSIBLE WEATHER OUTCOME
MUCH OF THIS SHORT-TERM PERIOD. GIVEN THE DETAIL DIFFERENCES...
SHORT-TERM FCST CONFIDENCE IS AVERAGE THIS CYCLE.

IN THE SHORT TERM...GENERALLY QUIET/DRY WEATHER EXPECTED THIS
EVENING AS THE SFC-850MB WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH THRU THE AREA.
MOISTURE/CAPE INCREASE THIS EVENING BUT THIS AT OR BELOW 850MB AND
BELOW A RATHER STRONG INVERSION IN THE 850-800MB LAYER. STRONGER OF
THE 925-850MB WARM ADVECTION LIFTS NORTH OF THE AREA LATER THIS
AFTERNOON/EARLY THIS EVENING WITH LOWER LEVEL THERMO-DYNAMIC FORCING
ON THE WEAKER SIDE THRU MUCH OF THE EVENING. SOUNDINGS SHOW EROSION/
WEAKENING OF THE CAPPING LATE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT AS THE 925-
850MB LAYER WARMS AND THE DEPTH OF MOISTURE INCREASES...BUT MAIN
LOWER LEVEL WARM ADVECTION/ISENTROPIC LIFT AND THETA-E CONVERGENCE
HAS SHIFTED NORTH OR WEST OF THE FCST AREA. CONTINUED SOME SMALL
SHRA/TSRA TONIGHT...MAINLY ACROSS THE NORTH HALF OF THE FCST AREA
CLOSER TO THE FRONT AND WHERE SOME LOWER LEVEL FORCING MAY REMAIN.

MOISTURE CONTINUES TO INCREASE THU WITH PW VALUES IN THE 1.5 INCH
RANGE BY MID-DAY. THIS AHEAD OF THE SFC-MID LEVEL LOW/TROUGH AND
BROAD LIFT/DIVERGENCE ALOFT. SB/ML CAPE PROGGED TO INCREASE INTO THE
1K-2K J/KG RANGE THU WITH CIN VALUES DROPPING BELOW 75 J/KG...UNDER
RATHER STEEP 700-300MB LAPSE RATES. 0-6KM BULK SHEAR PROGGED TO BE
IN THE 35-60KT RANGE ACROSS MUCH OF THE FCST AREA AT 18Z THU.
QUESTION IS HOW QUICKLY CONVECTION DEVELOPS AND SPREADS ACROSS
THE AREA. SOME MODELS SIGNAL THAT CONVECTION IS ONGOING ACROSS
PORTIONS OF THE AREA ALREADY BY 12Z. OTHERS HOLD IT BACK MORE INTO
THE AFTERNOON WITH A SECONDARY SURGE OF 850MB MOISTURE/MOISTURE
TRANSPORT AND APPROACH OF THE SFC-850MB LOW/COLD FRONT. EARLIER
CONVECTION WOULD TEND TO MUTE THE SEVERE RISK THU...LATER
CONVECTION WOULD ALLOW MORE CAPE TO BUILD ACROSS THE AREA AHEAD OF
THE LOW/INCREASING FORCING. SEE SWODY2 FOR MORE DETAILS. GIVEN THE
MODEL DIFFERENCES...THU OUTCOME STILL FAR FROM CERTAIN. DID
CONTINUE THE TREND OF RISING SHRA/TSRA CHANCES THRU THU MORNING
INTO THU AFTERNOON/EVENING. GIVEN THE HIGH PW VALUES...ANY SHRA/
TSRA SHOULD BE EFFICIENT RAIN MAKERS...WITH LOCAL 1 TO 2 INCH RAIN
AMOUNTS POSSIBLE IN TSRA. SFC-850MB COLD FRONT WITH SUBSIDENCE/
LOWER LEVEL DRYING AND DECREASING PUSHES ACROSS THE AREA THU NIGHT.
SHRA/TSRA CHANCES HIGHEST THU EVENING...TRENDING DOWN DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS.

FAVORED A BLEND OF THE GUIDANCE LOWS FOR TONIGHT/THU NIGHT. HIGHS
THU SOMEWHAT UNCERTAIN DEPENDING ON HOW EARLY CONVECTION WOULD
SPREAD ACROSS THE AREA. A DRIER THU MORNING WOULD GIVE MANY
LOCATIONS A CHANCE TO REACH 80F OR HIGHER. FOR NOW SIDED WITH THE
CONSENSUS OF THU HIGHS IN THE MID/UPPER 70S. EITHER WAY...WITH DEW
POINTS OF AROUND 60...THU WILL FEEL LIKE A LONG AWAITED SUMMER DAY.

.LONG TERM...(FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 313 PM CDT WED MAY 7 2014

MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS FOR FRI THROUGH SAT NIGHT...LINGERING SHRA
CHANCES FRI THEN RETURNING SHRA/ISOLATED TSRA CHANCES SAT AFTERNOON/
NIGHT...TEMPERATURES.

07.12Z MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT FOR THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS TO
MOVE EAST OF THE AREA FRI AND WEAK MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE RIDGING TO
BUILD INTO THE REGION FRI NIGHT. OVERALL TREND FAVORS SLOWER OF THE
EARLIER MODELS FRI/FRI NIGHT. CONSISTENCY IMPROVING ON THE NEXT
SHORTWAVE TROUGH TO PUSH ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND INTO THE
UPPER MIDWEST SAT THEN ACROSS MN/IA/WI SAT NIGHT. TREND WITH THIS
FEATURE IS ALSO TOWARD THE STRONGER OF THE EARLIER RUNS. WITH THE
IMPROVING CONSISTENCY...CONFIDENCE IN THE FRI THRU SAT NIGHT
PERIOD IS AVERAGE TO GOOD.

SFC-850MB COLD ADVECTION/DRIER AIR CONTINUE TO SPREAD INTO/ACROSS
THE AREA FRI AS THE SFC-MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS PASSES EAST OF THE
AREA. SOME 850-700MB WRAP-AROUND/DEFORMATION BAND MOISTURE SPREADS
SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE AREA FRI AFTERNOON...ALONG WITH A WEAK
SECONDARY SHORTWAVE DROPPING INTO THE BACK SIDE OF THE MID LEVEL
TROUGH. 20-40 PERCENT LINGERING -SHRA CHANCES FRI...MAINLY OVER
THE NORTHEAST 1/3 TO 1/2 OF THE FCST AREA...LOOK GOOD FOR NOW.
SFC-MID LEVEL RIDGING BUILDS INTO/ACROSS THE AREA FRI NIGHT AND
LEFT THIS PERIOD DRY. SHORTWAVE RIDGING EXPECTED TO BE VERY
TRANSIENT WITH THE NEXT STRONGER SHORTWAVE IN THE FLOW ALREADY
COMING ACROSS SD BY 12Z SAT. MOISTURE/LOWER LEVEL THERMO-DYNAMIC
FORCING INCREASE ALONG WITH THE PV ADVECTION AHEAD OF THE
SHORTWAVE ALREADY SPREADS INTO THE WEST SIDE OF THE FCST AREA SAT
MORNING THEN EASTWARD ACROSS THE AREA SAT AFTERNOON. SMALL -SHRA
CHANCE WEST OF THE MS RIVER SAT MORNING REASONABLE....WITH THAT
CHANCE INCREASING AND SPREADING ACROSS THE REST OF THE FCST AREA
SAT AFTERNOON. 250-500 J/KG MU CAPE INDICATED OVER THE WEST HALF
OF THE FCST AREA SAT AFTERNOON AND INCLUDED A TSRA CHANCE THERE.
MODEL CONSENSUS 30-50 PERCENT SHRA/TSRA CHANCES SAT NIGHT WITH
PASSAGE OF THE SFC-MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS...SOME CAPE AND PW
VALUES OF 0.75 TO 1 INCH APPEAR WELL TRENDED FOR NOW. FAVORING THE
MODEL/ENSEMBLE CONSENSUS...USED THE BLEND OF NUMERICAL GUIDANCE
HIGHS/LOWS FOR FRI THRU SAT NIGHT.

FOR SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY.../DAYS 4 TO 7/...

MAIN CONCERN IS THE NEXT LONGWAVE TROUGH TO MOVE INTO THE CENTRAL
CONUS BY THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK.

07.00Z/07.12Z...MEDIUM RANGE MODELS SHOWING AGREEMENT SUN ON STRONG
TROUGHING TO DIG INTO THE WESTERN CONUS. TREND IS STRONGER/SLOWER
WITH THIS FEATURE. IMPROVING AGREEMENT/CONSENSUS FOR THIS TROUGHING
TO MOVE INTO THE PLAINS MON...WITH SOME FORM OF THIS TROUGH/ENERGY
TO END UP OVER THE MID/UPPER MS VALLEY TUE/WED. PLENTY OF DETAIL
DIFFERENCES WITH SHORTWAVES MOVING THRU THE LONGER WAVE TROUGHING
AND HOW PROGRESSIVE THE LONGWAVE TROUGH OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS IS
TUE/WED. CONFIDENCE AVERAGE TO GOOD SUN/MON THEN BELOW AVERAGE BY
TUE/WED.

MUCH OF THE SUN THRU WED PERIOD LOOKS UNSETTLED WITH THE AREA EITHER
EAST OF THE PROGRESSIVE MID LEVEL TROUGH OR UNDER IT. DEPENDING ON
WHICH DETERMINISTIC MODEL MAY BE MORE CORRECT...SHORTWAVES EJECTING
OUT OF THE WESTERN CONUS TROUGH BRING INCREASING MOISTURE/THETA-E
CONVERGENCE AND LIFT BACK INTO THE AREA ALREADY ON SUNDAY...
CONTINUING INTO MONDAY. SOME CONSENSUS FOR LESSER LOWER LEVEL
MOISTURE AND THERMO-DYNAMIC FORCING TUE WITH THE AREA BETWEEN
SYSTEMS. HOWEVER THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS IS PROGGED TO BE OVER OR
JUST WEST OF THE MID/UPPER MS VALLEY ON TUE. THE MID LEVEL TROUGHING
OR ACTIVE NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT TO BE OVER THE REGION WED...WITH THE
SIGNAL FOR A STRONGER NORTHWEST FLOW SHORTWAVE TO BE DROPPING
TOWARD/ACROSS THE REGION. 20-50 PERCENT SHRA/TSRA CHANCES SUN-MON
APPEAR REASONABLE. LESSER -SHRA CHANCES TUE/WED ALSO LOOK GOOD. NOT
EVERY SUN-WED PERIOD WILL END UP WET BUT PICKING THE DRY ONES NEARLY
IMPOSSIBLE GIVEN THE TIMING/DETAIL DIFFERENCES AMONG THE MODELS/
ENSEMBLES. TEMPS TREND NEAR NORMAL SUN/MON THEN BELOW NORMAL AS THE
MID LEVEL TROUGH MOVES INTO THE REGION. MODEL/ENSEMBLE CONSENSUS
HIGHS/LOWS FOR DAY 4-7 APPEAR WELL TRENDED AT THIS TIME.

SITES. THIS TREND WILL CONTINUE MUCH OF THE NIGHT BUT AT LEAST SOME
SHOWER OR TSTM ACTIVITY EXPECTED DURING OVERNIGHT...MAINLY IN WEST
AREAS. THIS COULD LEAD TO WIDESPREAD CONVECTION AT DAYBREAK BEFORE
SETTING UP BREAK IN ACTION UNTIL LATER IN DAY WHEN MAIN WAVE
APPROACHES. ALL IN ALL VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD PREVAIL EXCEPT DURING
WORST OF STORMS...WITH DETAILS HARD TO INCLUDE MORE THAN A FEW HOURS
OUT.
