AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
848 PM CST TUE FEB 10 2015

NEW INFORMATION ADDED TO UPDATE SECTION

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 832 PM CST TUE FEB 10 2015

BASED ON THE LATEST RADAR TRENDS...THE HEAVIEST SNOWFALL IS GOING
TO OCCUR OUTSIDE OF THE ADVISORY AREA THROUGH MIDNIGHT. THE SNOW
HAS BECOME LIGHTER AND LESS STEADY OVER THE NORTHWEST THIRD OF
THE FORECAST AREA. SO FAR...REPORTS IN THE ADVISORY AREA HAVE
RANGED FROM ABOUT 0.5 TO 1.5 INCHES...AND ADDITIONAL ACCUMS SHOULD
REMAIN UNDER AN INCH. DO NOT PLAN TO CANCEL THE ADVISORY...AS ROADS
ARE SNOW COVERED OVER MOST OF THE AREA...AND SOME FZDZ IS EXPECTED
OVERNIGHT...THOUGH ICING CONCERNS SHOULD BE NEGATED BY THE LAYER
OF SNOW ON THE ROADS.

FARTHER SOUTHEAST...HAVE RAISED SNOWFALL ACCUMS TO 1.5 TO 3.0
INCHES...WITH MOST OF THAT LIKELY FALLING WITHIN THE NEXT 3 TO 4
HOURS. JUST RECEIVED A REPORT OF AN INCH IN ABOUT AN HOUR AT
CHILTON...AND 1.5 INCHES IN ABOUT AN HOUR AND A HALF AT APPLETON...
SO AN INCH/HOUR RATES ARE OCCURRING. THIS HEAVIEST CORE OF SNOW IS
EXPECTED TO MOVE OUT OF THE FOX VALLEY/LKSHR AREAS QUICKLY...SO
DON'T EXPECT TO SEE WIDESPREAD ADVISORY AMOUNTS IN THE SOUTHEAST
HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA.

WILL JUST LEAVE THE HEADLINES AS THEY ARE AND ADJUST SNOWFALL
ACCUMS DOWNWARD IN THE WSW.

UPDATE
ISSUED AT 545 PM CST TUE FEB 10 2015

DIFFICULT SYSTEM TO NOWCAST THIS EVG...AS THERE ARE BRIEF POCKETS
OF MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW...REPORTS OF MIXED SNOW...SLEET AND FREEZING
DRIZZLE DESPITE A LACK OF A WARM LAYER ALOFT...MOISTURE CONCERNS (DRY
WEDGE AROUND 850 MB)...AND RAPIDLY EVOLVING RADAR TRENDS. INITIAL
DRY SLOT IN BETWEEN TWO BANDS OF SNOW HAS RECENTLY FILLED IN...SO
A MORE SOLID PERIOD OF SNOW IS EXPECTED DURING THE EVENING. FORCING
WILL BE SUPPLIED BY A POTENT VORT AND STG WAA/ISENT LIFT THIS EVG...
THEN BY A SECONDARY VORT (CURRENTLY OVER NW MN) DURING THE OVERNIGHT
PERIOD. NEED TO TAKE A LOOK AT WHETHER OR NOT THE ADVISORY NEEDS
TO BE EXPANDED FARTHER EAST...BUT NOT SURE ABOUT THAT RIGHT NOW...AS
SOME OF THE BEST LIFT IS GETTING WASTED TO SATURATE THE ATMOSPHERE...
AND THE THERMAL PROFILE IS NOT REAL FAVORABLE FOR DENDRITE DEVELOPMENT.
BASED ON UPSTREAM OBSERVATIONS...THERE SHOULD BE A PERIOD OF FZDZ
OR MIXED SNOW/FZDZ AS THE HEAVIER SNOW TAPERS OFF OVERNIGHT. FZDZ
MAY LINGER INTO WEDS MORNING.
&&

.SHORT TERM...REST OF THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT
ISSUED AT 313 PM CST TUE FEB 10 2015

PRECIPITATION THAT WAS MOVING TOWARD CENTRAL WISCONSIN AT 20Z IS
THE MAIN SHORT TERM CONCERN. STRONG WARM ADVECTION...A SIGNIFICANT
MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE...AN APPROACHING SURFACE LOW AND SOME UPPER
LEVEL DIVERGENCE ASSOCIATED WITH A JET MAX IN CANADA AND ANOTHER
ACROSS THE CENTRAL CONUS ALL CONTRIBUTED TO LIFT NEEDED FOR
PRECIPITATION.

SOUNDING FROM 12Z AT MPX SHOWED A WARM LAYER THAT EXCEEDED 0C.
PRECIPITATION IN MINNESOTA STARTED OUT AS FREEZING RAIN AND SLEET
BEFORE CHANGING TO MOSTLY SNOW. THIS SEEMS CONSISTENT WITH THE DRY
LAYER ON THEIR SOUNDING BECOMING SATURATED AND COOLING BELOW
FREEZING. THE 12Z GRB SOUNDING SHOWED A WARM LAYER THAT WAS COLDER
THAN 0C AND BUFKIT MODEL SOUNDINGS KEPT IT THAT WAY. LOCAL
MESOANALYSIS SHOWED 0C AT 850MB REMAINING JUST TO THE SOUTH OF
THE FORECAST AREA SO FAR TODAY. THINK THAT THIS WILL RESULT IN
MAINLY SNOW ONCE THE PRECIPITATION BEGINS IN THE AREA...BUT AM
CONCERNED ENOUGH ABOUT THE WARM LAYER GETTING ABOVE 0C TO ADD
SOME FREEZING DRIZZLE...MAINLY TO THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE
FORECAST AREA...THIS EVENING.

THERE WAS SOME CONCERN YESTERDAY THAT MID LEVEL INSTABILITY COULD
RESULT IN CONVECTIVE SNOWFALL...BUT LIGHTNING DETECTION HAS NOT
SHOWN ANY CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING SO FAR. HAVE SEEN SOME REPORTS
OF 2 TO 3 INCHES OF SNOW ACROSS PARTS OF EASTERN MINNESOTA/WESTERN
WISCONSIN FROM THIS SYSTEM. GOOGLE GRAPHS OF COBB SNOWFALL FOR
RHI/AUW/GRB/OSH HAD SNOW TOTALS OF 2 INCHES OR LESS FROM MOST OF
THE MODELS...SO HAVE TOTALS MOSTLY 3 INCHES OR LESS EVEN IN THE
ADVISORY AREA. HAVE KEPT THE ADVISORY DUE TO TIMING OF PRECIPITATION
ONSET...BUT EVEN THAT LOOKS A BIT QUESTIONABLE AT THIS TIME.

SNOW SHOULD DIMINISH OVERNIGHT AND BUKIT SOUNDINGS SHOWED DRIER AIR
IN THE DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE...SO HAVE FREEZING DRIZZLE CHANCES
SPREADING ACROSS THE AREA OVERNIGHT.

.LONG TERM...WEDNESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY
ISSUED AT 313 PM CST TUE FEB 10 2015

FOR THE REST OF THE WORK WEEK AND QUITE POSSIBLY INTO NEXT
WEEK...THE HIGH AMPLITUDE FLOW AND WESTERN RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO
SUPPORT A PATTERN OF COLD ARCTIC INTRUSIONS INTO THE AREA...WITH THE
FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING ARCTIC AIR BLAST WITH BLUSTERY
WINDS POSSIBLY THE MOST BRUTAL. BELOW NORMAL TEMPS ARE EXPECTED
FOR MUCH OF THIS PERIOD.

STARTING WEDNESDAY...A LIGHT MIX OF SNOW OR FREEZING DRIZZLE WILL
LINGER WEDNESDAY MORNING UNTIL A VERY DEEP AND COLD SHORT WAVE
TROUGH BEGINS TO DROP INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION LATER MORNING
OVER NORTHERN AREAS BEFORE SWEEPING SOUTH LATER WEDNESDAY INTO THE
EVENING. VERY IMPRESSIVE H8 COLD FRONT DROPPING SOUTHWARD DURING
THIS PERIOD...WITH GRB WED MORNING H850 TEMPS STARTING -7 C THEN
FALLING TO -22 C LATE WEDNESDAY EVENING. WHILE MOISTURE IS
EXPECTED TO DIMINISH WEDNESDAY...ANY REMAINING MOISTURE MAY POOL
ALONG THIS SECONDARY FRONT FOR A BRIEF BURST OF SNOW SHOWERS
DURING PASSAGE. LATER SHIFTS WILL NEED TO WATCH FOR THIS FRONT
PASSING DURING THE AFTERNOON COMMUTE. WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BE ON
THE INCREASE WEDNESDAY NIGHT TO PRODUCE PATCHY OR AREAS OF BLSN AS
WELL AS FALLING TEMPS. FORECAST WIND CHILL READINGS ARE APPROACHING
ADVISORY CRITERIA THURSDAY MORNING FOR AT LEAST NC WI. THE STRONG
COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL ALSO CONTINUE LAKE EFFECT SNOWS FAR NORTH.

HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL DRIFT OVER THE AREA LATER THURSDAY INTO
THURSDAY NIGHT TO DIMINISH WINDS AND DECREASE CLOUDS. TREND OF
CLOUDS DECREASING WILL BE BRIEF BEFORE ANOTHER REGION OF WAA IN
RESPONSE TO A CLIPPER TRACKING TO THE NORTH. LIGHT SNOW MAY SPREAD
OVER THE AREA FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY EVENING. THIS CLIPPER SYSTEM WILL
BE FOLLOWED WITH A MUCH COLDER AIR MASS WITH A TIGHTENING PRESSURE
GRADIENT DUE TO A DEEPENING LOW OVER LOWER MICHIGAN AND BUILDING
ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM. PROGGED H850 TEMPS FALLING TO -30 C
AND COMBINED WITH THE WINDS WILL LIKELY PRODUCE WIND CHILL
HEADLINES.

ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE SETTLING OVER THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT INTO
SUNDAY WILL PROVIDE CLEAR SKIES BUT VERY CHILLY TEMPERATURES...WITH
WELL BELOW SUB ZERO READINGS SUNDAY MORNING OVER MOST LOCATIONS.

MODELS DEVIATE ON TIMING OF WEAKER SYSTEMS FOR NEXT WEEK IN THE
CONTINUED NORTHWEST FLOW...BUT IN CONSENSUS WITH COLDER THAN
NORMAL TEMPERATURES TO LINGER FOR MUCH OF NEXT WEEK.
&&

.AVIATION...FOR 00Z TAF ISSUANCE
ISSUED AT 545 PM CST TUE FEB 10 2015

SNOW WAS FILLING ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA EARLY THIS EVG...AS A
STROG UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE MOVED INTO THE REGION. POCKETS OF
MODERATE SNOW...AND BRIEF PERIODS OF MIXED SNOW...SLEET AND
FREEZING DRIZZLE...WERE BEING REPORTED. EXPECT LIGHT TO MODERATE
SNOW TO CONTINUE THIS EVG AND INTO THE EARLY OVERNIGHT PERIOD
BEFORE TAPERING OFF TO A LIGHTER MIX OF FREEZING DRIZZLE AND SNOW
LATER TONIGHT/EARLY WEDS MORNING. EXPECT MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS...
WITH LOCAL LIFR CONDITIONS DURING PERIODS OF MODERATE SNOW.

AN ARCTIC COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA LATE TONIGHT AND
WEDS MORNING...WITH GUSTY NW WINDS BRINGING DRIER AND COLDER AIR
INTO THE REGION. THIS WILL RESULT IN IMPROVED VSBYS AND GRADUALLY
RISING CIG HEIGHTS (MAINLY MVFR/LOW VFR) ON WEDS. LAKE EFFECT SNOW
SHOWERS WILL INCREASE OVER FAR NORTH CENTRAL WI DURING THE DAY.
