Area forecast discussion, Apr 9, 3:53 AM CDT, 5 hours 28 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
353 AM CDT THU APR 9 2015

.UPDATE...UPDATE FOR GALE WATCH LATE TONIGHT.

.SHORT TERM....

TODAY AND TONIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...HIGH

THE 250 MB UPPER TROUGH WILL PUSH INTO THE NORTHERN AND CENTRAL
PLAINS THIS MORNING AND INTO THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY THIS
EVENING. THE UPPER JET JUST NORTH OF THE UPPER GREAT LAKES INCREASES
TO 130 KNOTS BY NOON. THE UPPER FLOW ACROSS SOUTHERN WISCONSIN
INCREASES IN SPEED THROUGH THE DAY AND REACHES 80 KNOTS TOWARD
EVENING AS THE UPPER TROUGH APPROACHES. THE UPPER DIVERGENCE
INCREASES CONSIDERABLY BY NOON ACROSS SOUTHERN WISCONSIN...WHICH MAY
HAVE SOMEWHAT OF A CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK. THE UPPER DIVERGENCE MOVES
OFF TO THE NORTHEAST AFTER MIDNIGHT. THE 500 MB MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE
AND CYCLONIC VORTICITY ADVECTION IS QUITE STRONG...LOCATED OVER
EASTERN IOWA TOWARD EVENING...AND EXITING THE SOUTHEAST JUST AFTER
MIDNIGHT. 700 MB TEMPERATURES INCREASE SLIGHTLY THIS MORNING BEFORE
COOLING BEGINNING DURING THE AFTERNOON. THE 700 MB UPWARD MOTION
CONTINUES TODAY AND THIS EVENING WITH DOWNWARD MOTION BY MIDNIGHT
OVER ALL BUT THE SHEBOYGAN AREA.

A 45 TO 55 KNOT SOUTHWEST 700 MB JET PUSHES NORTHEAST TOWARD
SOUTHERN WISCONSIN TODAY...REACHING SOUTHEAST WISCONSIN EARLY THIS
EVENING.  THE 850 MB LOW LEVEL JET IS SIMILAR...AT 40 TO 50 KNOTS.
THE 700 MB RH DECREASES DURING THE DAY...ESPECIALLY TOWARD EVENING
AS THE DRY SLOT APPROACHES AND REACHES THE FAR SOUTHEAST LATER IN THE
EVENING. 850 MB DEWPOINTS REMAIN AROUND 12 CELSIUS INTO THE EVENING.
THE 925 MB RH REMAINS NEARLY SATURATED...EXCEPT OVER PORTIONS OF
SOUTHEAST AND FAR SOUTH CENTRAL WISCONSIN.  MODELS ARE NOW FAIRLY
SIMILAR PUTTING MUCH OF SOUTHEAST AND FAR SOUTH CENTRAL WISCONSIN IN
THE WARM SECTOR...WITH THE GFS STILL THE MORE NORTH TRACK.

THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON AHEAD OF THE SURFACE
WARM FRONT AS THE LOW LEVEL JET APPROACHES AND 850 MB MOISTURE
CONVERGENCE INCREASES.

925 MB TEMPS REACH NEAR 20 CELSIUS LATER THIS AFTERNOON.  EXPECT THE
WARM SECTOR TO BE RATHER CLOUDY FOR MUCH OF THE AFTERNOON. CLOUDY
SKIES AND EAST WINDS WILL RESULT IN COOL TEMPERATURES THIS MORNING
THEN RISE LATE THIS AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY SOUTHEAST IN THE WARM
SECTOR. ELEVATED MOST UNSTABLE CAPE RISES TO AROUND 2200 JOULES/KM
IN THE WARM SECTOR WITH ZERO TO 1 KM MIXED LAYER CAPE AROUND 1500
JOULES/KG OFF THE NAM SOUNDINGS. BUFKIT HELICITY INCREASES TO A
STRONG 525 VALUE NEAR THE WARM FRONT WITH AN EHI OF 2.7.  NAM
SOUNDINGS SHOW A VERY SHALLOW INVERSION BY MID TO LATE
AFTERNOON...ONLY AT AROUND 1 THSD FT. THIS COULD QUICKLY MIX OUT IN
THE FAR SOUTHEAST...BUT EVEN IF IT DOES NOT...THE INVERSION IS
TOO SHALLOW TO RESTRICT TORNADO POTENTIAL IF SUPERCELLS PUSH IN
FROM THE SOUTHWEST. HIGH RES WRF ARW DOES INDICATE RATHER DISCRETE
THUNDERSTORMS IN THE WARM SECTOR OVER THE SOUTHEAST. THE
HODOGRAPHS INDICATE A CONTINUED TORNADO POTENTIAL. THE HAIL
POTENTIAL ALSO RISES TO ABOVE 25 PCT IN THE BOX AND WHISKER
DISPLAY OF 2 INCH HAIL POTENTIAL.

THE SEVERE THREAT WILL EXIST ESPECIALLY MID AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING...THEN COME TO AN ABRUPT END WITH THE STRONG COLD FRONT
EXITING THE SOUTHEAST BEFORE MIDNIGHT. MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA IS
IN A SPC SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE...WITH AN ENHANCED RISK REACHING
INTO THE FAR SOUTH FROM NEAR BELOIT TO KENOSHA.

FRIDAY - CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM
SECONDARY VORT MAX PIVOTS SOUTHEAST INTO THE AREA DURING THE
AFTERNOON HOURS. SURFACE TROUGH AXIS IN PLAY AS WELL SO WILL HAVE
SOME POPS CWA WIDE. NAM BUFKIT SOUNDINGS SHOW STEEP LOW LEVEL
APSE RATES WITH SOME CAPE UP TO 10K FT. WITH THE WELL MIXED NATURE
OF THE SOUNDINGS WILL BE A BREEZY DAY WITH PRESSURE GRADIENT STILL
SOMEWHAT TIGHT IN THE WAKE OF THE DEPARTING LOW.

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT - CONFIDENCE...HIGH
MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW THIS AS A PERIOD INFLUENCED BY SURFACE
ANTICYCLONE AND EVEN AS HIGH MOVES FURTHER AWAY ON SATURDAY NIGHT
THE BEST LOW LEVEL RETURN FLOW IS PROGGD TO FOCUS PRECIP FROM WRN
IA SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE PLAINS.

.LONG TERM...

SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT - CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM
NEXT TROUGH PROGGD TO MOVE THROUGH ESP GETTING INTO SUNDAY NIGHT.
BETTER SHORTWAVE DYNAMICS LOOK MORE TO OUR NORTH. FRONT SWINGS
THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT WITH SHRA/TSRA POTENTIAL...THOUGH QPF AMOUNTS
NOT GREAT. SYSTEM PROGRESSIVE SO MAY END BY MIDNIGHT OR SO.

MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT - CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM
BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF SHOW SURFACE RIDGING. THE SUPERBLEND SLGT
POPS HAVE BEEN LOWERED TO GO WITH A DRY FORECAST.

TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY - CONFIDENCE...LOW
THE ECMWF IS NOW QUICKER ON RETURNING MOISTURE/PRECIP INTO THE
AREA. LAST NIGHT IT WAS THE GFS THAT WAS FASTER. AT THIS TIME
THERE IS CONSENSUS TO KEEP TUESDAY DRY AND THE GFS EXTENDS THAT
THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT. HOWEVER NOW THE ECMWF IS BRINGING RAIN IN
FOR TUESDAY NIGHT WITH A MORE PROGRESSIVE AND DEVELOPED SURFACE
LOW INTO IOWA. THE GFS HOWEVER IS SLOWER AND SUGGESTS AT LEAST
SOME PRECIP FOR WEDNESDAY. WILL GO WITH SUPERBLEND POPS FOR NOW
THIS PERIOD.

AVIATION/12Z TAFS/...

IFR/LIFR CEILINGS SHOULD LINGER THIS MORNING ACROSS SOUTHERN
WISCONSIN. LIFR VISIBILITIES POSSIBLE NEAR LAKE MICHIGAN. AREA OF
SHOWERS WITH SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS SHOULD DIMINISH SOMEWHAT...
BUT THEN PICK UP AGAIN AS THE SURFACE WARM FRONT APPROACHES. SOME
STORMS MAY PRODUCE HAIL.

THE SURFACE LOW IS EXPECTED TO TRACK ACROSS SOUTHERN WISCONSIN WITH
PORTIONS OF SOUTHEAST AND FAR SOUTH CENTRAL WISCONSIN LIKELY GETTING
INTO THE WARM SECTOR.  THIS WOULD CAUSE CIGS TO RISE TO MVFR AND
POSSIBLY VFR.

THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED FROM MIDDLE AFTERNOON TO MIDDLE
EVENING AND MAY BE SEVERE. LARGE HAIL...DAMAGING WINDS AND
TORNADOES ARE ALL POSSIBLE. WINDS WILL SHIFT WEST NORTHWEST AND
BECOME GUSTY BY LATER TONIGHT AS A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVES
THROUGH.
