AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI 537 AM CST WED FEB 18 2015 FORECAST DISCUSSION FOR ROUTINE MORNING FORECAST ISSUANCE .SHORT TERM...TODAY...TONIGHT...AND THURSDAY ISSUED AT 537 AM CST WED FEB 18 2015 ARCTIC AIR WILL CONTINUE TO FLOW INTO WISCONSIN FOR THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS AS POLAR LOW DROPS SOUTH FROM HUDSONS BAY TO LAKE HURON WHILE SURFACE HIGH MOVES FROM CENTRAL CANADA TO THE UPPER MIDWEST. TEMPERATURES WILL STRUGGLE TO GET ABOVE ZERO OVER NORTHERN AND CENTRAL WISCONSIN THIS AFTERNOON AND WILL BE AROUND 25 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF THE YEAR. WIND CHILLS OF 20 TO 30 BELOW ZERO WILL CONTINUE OVER CENTRAL AND NORTH CENTRAL WISCONSIN THROUGH MIDDAY. LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS LIKELY ACROSS VILAS COUNTY BUT NOT EXPECTING ANY SIGNIFICANT ACCUMULATIONS DUE TO ICE COVER ON LAKE SUPERIOR AND THE VERY DRY ARCTIC AIR. EVEN COLDER WIND CHILLS EXPECTED TONIGHT AS TEMPERATURES FALL TO 10 TO 20 BELOW ZERO WITH A STEADY WIND IN MOST PLACES. WIND CHILL ADVISORIES OR WARNINGS WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED. SUNNY SKIES AND VERY COLD AGAIN THURSDAY WITH HIGHS ABOUT 25 DEGREES BELOW NORMAL. .LONG TERM...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY ISSUED AT 537 AM CST WED FEB 18 2015 WESTERN RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THE WEATHER PATTERN DURING THE PERIOD...ALLOWING FOR ARCTIC AIR TO REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH MUCH OF THE PERIOD.

FOR EXAMPLE...THE ARCTIC OSCILLATION HAS MANY ENSEMBLE MEMBERS BECOMING STRONGLY POSITIVE...WHICH USUALLY LEADS TO A GREATER CHANCE FOR ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES ACROSS OUR AREA.

FOR THURSDAY NIGHT...MINIMUM TEMPERATURES STILL PROBLEMATIC DEPENDING ON HOW QUICK CLOUDS INCREASE ACROSS THE AREA AND WINDS FLIP TO THE SOUTH AROUND OR AFTER 06Z. WITH SUCH A COLD START TO THE EVENING...MINIMUM TEMPERATURES WILL PROBABLY BE REACHED AROUND MIDNIGHT AND THEN SLOWLY RISE OVERNIGHT. NEXT CLIPPER SYSTEM WILL MOVE ACROSS THE REGION FRIDAY AFTERNOON AND FRIDAY NIGHT. INCREASED SNOW CHANCES SUBSTANTIALLY AND INCREASED SNOW TOTALS. MOST LOCATIONS SHOULD SEE 1 TO 2 INCHES...BUT SOME MODELS HINT AT LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS. A BRIEF BREAK IN THE BITTER COLD IS EXPECTED ON SATURDAY...THEN THE ARCTIC CHILL WILL BE FELT FOR THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK. WIND CHILLS COULD APPROACH ADVISORY CRITERIA ON SOME MORNINGS. MAY NEED TO INCREASE SNOW CHANCES WITH CLIPPER SYSTEM ON TUESDAY/TUESDAY NIGHT AS THIS SYSTEM LOOKED PRETTY IMPRESSIVE ON THE ECMWF. && .AVIATION...FOR 06Z TAF ISSUANCE ISSUED AT 1020 PM CST TUE FEB 17 2015 MAINLY LOW END VFR CIGS EXPECTED OVERNIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. AN UPPER TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE DROPPING INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION OVERNIGHT WILL GENERATE A PERIOD OF SCATTERED MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS. MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS WILL BE MORE NUMEROUS OVER FAR NORTHERN WISCONSIN TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. && .GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
