AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LA CROSSE WI
315 PM CST THU JAN 16 2014

.SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 315 PM CST THU JAN 16 2014

MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS THIS PACKAGE...WINDS/BLOWING SNOW THIS
EVENING...WIND CHILLS LATER TONIGHT/FRI MORNING...NEXT SYSTEM
DROPPING INTO THE REGION FRI NIGHT...

18Z DATA ANALYSIS HAD A 995MB LOW CENTERED OVER THE U.P. OF MI WITH
ITS BROAD CIRCULATION COVERING MUCH OF THE NORTH-CENTRAL CONUS.
TIGHTER GRADIENT AND SUBSIDENCE BEHIND A COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS
WI/EASTERN IA WAS PRODUCING STRONG/GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS ACROSS MUCH
OF MN/IA/WESTERN WI. SNOW ACROSS THE AREA HAS GENERALLY BEEN
SHOWERY/SPOTTY WITH MINIMAL ACCUMULATIONS...WITH ONLY A 2 TO 3 HR
PERIOD OF VSBYS BELOW A COUPLE MILES IN SNOW/BLOWING SNOW WITH THE
STRONGEST WINDS RIGHT BEHIND THE FRONT. MORE SEVERE BLOWING
SNOW/POOR VSBYS WERE OVER WESTERN MN/FAR EASTERN ND WHERE SNOW
DEPTHS WERE GREATER AND WINDS WERE STILL GUSTING 30-40 MPH.

16.12Z MODELS INITIALIZED WELL AND OFFER VERY SIMILAR SOLUTIONS FOR
TONIGHT THRU FRI NIGHT. MODEL CONSENSUS CONTINUES TO FAVOR STRONGER
OF EARLIER MODEL RUNS WITH WITH THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH TO PASS TONIGHT
AND THE NEXT ONE DROPPING TOWARD THE AREA FRI NIGHT. WITH THE
STRONGER TREND IS A SLOWING TREND WITH THE FEATURES...ESPECIALLY THE
SHORTWAVE APPROACHING FRI NIGHT. CHECK AT 18Z SHOWED MOST MODELS TO
BE A BIT FAST WITH THE COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS WI/EASTERN IA. ALL
TO HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THE SFC LOW AND WINDS ACROSS REGION...AND
WERE QUITE GOOD WITH ANY SNOW ACROSS MUCH OF MN/IA/WI THIS MORNING
REMAINING ON THE LIGHT SIDE. PER WV IMAGERY MODELS LOOK GOOD WITH
THE SHORTWAVE MOVING ONSHORE IN SOUTHERN AK...WHICH DROPS INTO THE
REGION FRI NIGHT. GIVEN THE TIGHT MODEL CONSENSUS...EVEN WITH THE
STRONGER TREND...FCST CONFIDENCE IS GOOD TONIGHT THRU FRI NIGHT.

IN THE SHORT TERM...ONE MORE STRONGER LOBE/SPOKE OF VORTICITY TO
DROP ACROSS THE AREA TONIGHT. AFTER A DECREASE OF CLOUDS AND SOME
SUNSHINE FOR PARTS OF THE FCST AREA TODAY...ANOTHER DEEPER BAND OF
925-700MB MOISTURE TO ROTATE SOUTH ACROSS THE FCST AREA TONIGHT
WITH/BEHIND THE SFC-700MB TROUGH. THIS WITH SOME WEAK CONVERGENCE/
LIFT LOOKS TO PRODUCE A WEAK DEFORMATION BAND OF -SN/-SHSN AS IT
PASSES TONIGHT. CONTINUED THE 40-60 PERCENT PRECIP CHANCES WITH
SCT/ OCCASIONAL -SHSN TONIGHT. NORTHWEST WINDS REMAIN BRISK
TONIGHT BUT DO GRADUALLY DIMINISH. BLOWING/DRIFTING SNOW TO
DIMINISH/END AS WELL AS WINDS DROP 5 TO 10 KTS FROM THEIR PEAK
VALUES AND GUSTINESS WANES. WILL END THE WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY
AT MIDNIGHT AND CONVERT THE 06Z-18Z PORTION TO A WIND CHILL
ADVISORY FOR 06Z-17Z. TEMPS FALLING TO AROUND ZERO LATER TONIGHT
COUPLED WITH THE 10-20 MPH WINDS STILL LOOK TO SEND WIND CHILLS
ACROSS THE WEST THIRD OF THE FCST AREA INTO THE -20 TO -30 RANGE
LATE TONIGHT/FRI MORNING.

FRI/FRI EVENING CONTINUE TO LOOK QUIET/COLD AS SFC-700MB RIDGING
BUILDS INTO/ACROSS THE AREA. 925MB TEMPS IN THE -12C TO -16C RANGE
THRU FRI FOR HIGHS SOME 15-20F COLDER THAN THOSE OF TODAY.

SLOWER MODEL SOLUTIONS DELAY THE ARRIVAL OF THE DEEPER MOISTURE/LIFT
WITH THE NEXT STRONG SHORTWAVE TO DIVE SOUTHEAST INTO THE REGION.
RATHER IMPRESSIVE 500-300MB PV ADVECTION/LIFT/DIVERGENCE ALOFT TO
SPREAD INTO THE AREA LATER FRI NIGHT. ANOTHER ROUND OF MDT TO STRONG
925-700MB WARM ADVECTION/ISENTROPIC LIFT SPREADS ACROSS THE AREA
AHEAD OF A RATHER VIGOROUS SFC-700MB LOW DROPPING TOWARD THE AREA.
DELAYED THE ARRIVAL OF THE SNOW A BIT FRI NIGHT...LEFT FRI EVENING
DRY...THEN TRENDED SNOW CHANCES UPWARD IN THE 09-12Z SAT PERIOD.
USED A BLEND OF THE GUIDANCE LOWS/HIGHS FOR TONIGHT THRU FRI NIGHT.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 315 PM CST THU JAN 16 2014

FORECAST CONCERNS FOR SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT...SNOW ON
SATURDAY...TEMPERATURES SATURDAY THRU SUN NIGHT.

16.12Z MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH STRONGER TRENDING SHORTWAVE TO
DROP ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST SAT...HGTS TO SLOWLY RISE SAT NIGHT/
SUN THEN FALL AGAIN SUN NIGHT AS THE NEXT BROADER TROUGHING/ENERGY
DROP INTO THE UPPER MIDWEST. TREND IS TOWARD A TIGHTER COMPROMISE
CONSENSUS OF THE EARLIER RUNS THRU THE PERIOD...BUT THE STRONGER/
SLOWER TREND FROM FRI NIGHT CONTINUES SAT...AND TREND IS A BIT
STRONGER WITH THE TROUGHING MOVING IN SUN NIGHT. FCST CONFIDENCE IN
THE SAT THRU SUN NIGHT PERIOD IS GOOD.

COMING OUT OF FRI NIGHT WITH THE SLIGHT SLOWING...THE STRONGEST/
DEEPEST LIFT WITH THE SHORTWAVE AND LOWER LEVEL THERMO-DYNAMIC
FORCING NOW PROGGED TO MOVE ACROSS THE FCST SAT MORNING. MODEL
CONSENSUS OF THE SWATH OF SNOW HAS TIGHTENED...BUT CAN-GEM REMAINS A
BIT WEST OF THE MEAN AND NAM A BIT EAST OF THE MEAN. EITHER
WAY...MODEL CONSENSUS PRODUCES A BAND OF 0.1 TO AS MUCH AS 0.25
INCH OF QPF ACROSS THE AREA...MAINLY ALONG/EAST OF THE MS RIVER.
SNOW-WATER RATIOS A BIT TRICKY. DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE NOT
EXCEPTIONALLY DEEP WITH THIS SYSTEM...BUT THE LIFT IS PROGGED TO
BE STRONG AND DEEP. USING A 15 TO 17 TO 1 SNOW-WATER RATIO STILL
PRODUCES AS MUCH AS 3 TO 4 INCHES OF SNOW ALONG/NORTHEAST OF I-94
FROM LATE FRI NIGHT INTO SAT AFTERNOON. WILL HOLD OF ON ANY
HEADLINES FOR THIS EXPECTED SNOW FALL AND GIVE MID CREW ONE MORE
SET OF MODEL RUNS TO TIGHTEN THE CONSENSUS EVEN FURTHER...PLUS THE
SHORTWAVE OF CONCERN WILL BE OVER AK/NORTHWEST CAN.

BEYOND SAT...WEATHER GENERALLY QUIET FOR SAT NIGHT THRU SUN NIGHT AS
THE SAT TROUGH ROTATES QUICKLY EAST AND THE FLOW ALOFT GRADUALLY
TURNS FROM NORTH TO WEST OVER THE AREA. COLD ADVECTION BEHIND THE
SAT SHORTWAVE IS SHORT-LIVED WITH MDT/STRONG 925-700MB WARM
ADVECTION SPREADING ACROSS THE AREA SAT NIGHT/EARLY SUNDAY. SOME
DIFFERENCE OF OPINION AMONG THE MODELS HOW MUCH LOWER LEVEL WARMING
OCCURS BY SUN AFTERNOON...925MB TEMPS PER THE ECMWF/NAM IN THE -3C
TO +3C RANGE WHILE GFS IN THE -5C TO -10C RANGE. WITH MORE WESTERLY
MID LEVEL FLOW AHEAD OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY DROPPING INTO ND/NORTHERN MN
SUN AFTERNOON...WARMER NAM/ECMWF SOLUTIONS LOOK BETTER FOR SUN AND
LEFT SUNDAY HIGHS IN THE 30S. IF WARMER ECMWF IS MORE CORRECT...
COULD EVEN BE A FEW LOW 40S ON SUN...MUCH LIKE SUNDAY JAN 12. MORE
CONSISTENT SIGNAL FOR LOW LEVEL COLD ADVECTION TO RETURN SUN NIGHT
AS LOW PRESSURE TRACKING ACROSS SOUTHERN CAN PUSHES ANOTHER COLD
FRONT SOUTH ACROSS THE UPPER MIDWEST. FAVORED WARMER OF NUMERICAL
GUIDANCE FOR SUN HIGHS...OTHERWISE STAYED WITH A MODEL/ENSEMBLE
CONSENSUS FOR HIGHS/LOWS IN THE SAT-SUN NIGHT PERIOD.

FOR MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.../DAYS 4 TO 7/...

16.00Z AND 16.12Z MEDIUM RANGE MODELS OFFER IMPROVING AGREEMENT IN
THE MONDAY TIME-FRAME AS HGTS FALL ACROSS THE REGION...THEN REMAIN
IN GOOD/IMPROVING AGREEMENT TUE/WED AS LONGWAVE TROUGHING DEEPENS
OVER EASTERN NOAM. DETAIL DIFFERENCES ON SHORTWAVES THRU THE NORTH-
WEST TO NORTH FLOW OVER THE REGION BECOME MORE APPARENT BY THU BUT
THIS MORE OR LESS EXPECTED IN NORTHWEST FLOW BY DAY 7. WITH THE
IMPROVING CONSISTENCY...FCST CONFIDENCE FOR TEMPS HEADING BACK BELOW
NORMAL IN THE DAY 4-7 PERIOD IS GOOD. LESSER CONFIDENCE ON ANY -SN
CHANCES MON-THU WITH PLENTY OF SMALLER SCALE SHORTWAVE STRENGTH/
TIMING DETAIL DIFFERENCES AMONG THE MODELS.

TRAIN OF SHORTWAVE ENERGY DROPS ACROSS THE REGION MON...LOWERING
HGTS AND EVENTUALLY CARVING OUT THE EASTERN NOAM TROUGH FOR MUCH
OF NEXT WEEK. REGION ENDS UP UNDER NORTHWEST TO NORTH FLOW ALOFT
MUCH OF NEXT WEEK. LEAD ENERGY MON BRINGS WITH IT A -SN CHANCE FOR
MUCH OF THE FCST AREA...BUT MORE OF AN IMPACT LOOKS TO BE THE
STRONG LOW LEVEL COLD ADVECTION MON/MON NIGHT WITH 925MB TEMPS IN
THE -18C TO -22C RANGE BY 12Z TUE. AFTER A WARMER DAY SUN...TEMPS
TO SHARPLY FALL MON/MON NIGHT...ENDING UP BELOW ZERO BY TUE
MORNING WITH POTENTIAL NEED FOR WIND CHILL HEADLINES ACROSS MOST
OR ALL OF THE AREA LATE MON NIGHT/TUE MORNING. 925MB TEMPS LOOK TO
STAY IN THE - 18C TO -22C RANGE THRU WED...WITH SOME MODEL SIGNAL
FOR A STRONGER ROUND OF LOWER LEVEL WARM ADVECTION TO SPREAD
ACROSS THE AREA THU. GIVEN THE STRENGTH/DEPTH OF THE MOISTURE/LIFT
SIGNAL...SOME MODERATE OF TEMPS AND AT LEAST A SMALL -SN CHANCE
ARE REASONABLE FOR THU. TRENDED TOWARD FALLING TEMPS
MONDAY...COLDER OF LOWS/HIGHS MON NIGHT THRU WED...WITH THE
MODEL/ENSEMBLE CONSENSUS TEMPS LOOKING GOOD FOR WED NIGHT/THU.

ISSUED AT 1131 AM CST THU JAN 16 2014

CHALLENGING AVIATION FORECAST AS BLOWING SNOW AND INTERMITTENT SNOW
BURSTS ARE CREATING A WIDE VARIETY OF VISIBILITIES ACROSS
MINNESOTA...RANGING FROM 1/4SM TO VFR...ALL WITHIN AN HOUR IN SOME
SPOTS. INITIAL SURGE OF STRONG WINDS / SNOW HAS MOVED PAST
KRST...AND WILL DO SO AT KLSE IN A FEW HOURS. THERE MAY BE A LULL IN
THE ACTIVITY /EVEN A BRIEF PERIOD OF CLEAR SKIES/ FOR A FEW HOURS
THIS AFTERNOON...BEFORE THE NEXT WAVE COMES THROUGH THIS EVENING.
DESPITE THIS LULL...WINDS WILL REMAIN 20 TO 25 KTS...WHICH SHOULD
KEEP BLOWING SNOW PRESENT AND VIS AT MVFR...ESPECIALLY AT KRST WHICH
COULD BRIEFLY DROP TO IFR. WITH THE NEXT ROUND COMING
TONIGHT...EXPECTING LIGHT SNOW AND MVFR VISIBILITIES...THOUGH
CEILINGS ARE MORE TRICKY. GUIDANCE SHOWS MAINLY 1500 TO 2500 FT
IMPROVING TO VFR BY MORNING...AND HAVE TRENDED THE FORECAST IN THAT
