EARLY AFTERNOON RADAR TRENDS SHOWED A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOPED ON THE LFQ OF AN UPPER LEVEL JET IN NW MN AND SURGED SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE DAY.

STILL...ISOLATED GUSTY WINDS AND LARGE HAIL IS POSSIBLE THROUGH THE EARLY EVENING IN CENTRAL WISCONSIN BEFORE WEAKENING TONIGHT. EXPECT PRECIPITATION TO CONTINUE TO PUSH THROUGH THE AREA TONIGHT AS A COLD FRONT PASSES THROUGH. ADDED FORCING FROM A SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL HELP KEEP THINGS GOING THROUGH THE NIGHT. SHOWED LIKELY POPS PUSHING THROUGH THE AREA BASED ON THE SPEED AND MOVEMENT OF THE CURRENT RADAR. WITH ADDED MOISTURE FROM TODAYS RAINFALL...FOG WILL LIKELY DEVELOP AS WINDS GO LIGHT LATE TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY MORNING. . PRECIPITATION MAY STILL BE ONGOING ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY MORNING...HOWEVER ANY LINGERING SHOWERS SHOULD COME TO AN END IN CENTRAL AND NORTH CENTRAL WISCONSIN BY EARLY AFTERNOON AS HEIGHTS BEGIN TO RISE AND DRIER AIR IS USHERED IN BEHIND THE MAIN COLD FRONT. FURTHER EAST...ENOUGH FORCING SHOULD REMAIN OVER THE FOX VALLEY AND LAKESHORE FOR SHOWER ACTIVITY TO CONTINUE AND EVEN REDEVELOP THROUGH TUESDAY AFTERNOON. DROPPED HIGH TEMPS A FEW DEGREES BASED ON GUIDANCE TRENDS AND NOTABLE CAA ON NORTHERLY FLOW. .LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY ISSUED AT 158 PM CDT MON JUN 29 2015 PCPN CHANCES THE PRIMARY FOCUS. A WESTERN STATES UPPER RIDGE AND THE UPPER TROUGH OVER THE EASTERN STATES WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP THE AREA IN A NORTHWEST FLOW FOR MUCH OF THE WEEK. UPPER HEIGHTS DO GRADUALLY INCREASE THROUGH THURSDAY FOR AN OVERALL DRY FORECAST AND MORE THAN LIKELY THE HIT AND MISS DIURNAL TYPE OF CONVECTION. MEDIUM RANGE MODELS PROG ANOTHER SHORT WAVE TROUGH TO DROP INTO THE AREA LATE THIS WEEK...FRIDAY AT THIS TIME FOR THE NEXT CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION. BUT PROGS ALSO SUGGESTING MUCH OF THE ENERGY SLIDING SOUTH OF THE AREA IN THE BASE OF THE TROUGH AND NORTH IN THE NORTHERN STREAM. WESTERLY FLOW DEVELOPS FOR MUCH OF THE WEEKEND PRIOR TO COLD FRONT PASSAGE TOWARD SUNDAY NIGHT OR MONDAY.

WILL KEEP TEMPO GROUPS FOR TSTMS AT RHI/AUW/CWA DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVG HOURS. CONFIDENCE IN THUNDER FOR THE EASTERN TAF SITES IS NOT AS HIGH GIVEN LESS INSTABILITY...SO WILL PROBABLY HOLD OFF ON TSTMS IN THE ATW/GRB/MTW TAFS FOR NOW. GUIDANCE AGAIN SHOWS FOG FOR TONIGHT...WITH THE BEST CHC/LOWEST VSBYS IN NORTHERN WISCONSIN. INCLUDED IN TAFS BUT WILL DEPEND ON HOW RAIN EVOLVES THIS AFTERNOON.
