AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED

1257 PM CDT TUE MAR 15 2016

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 1257 PM CDT TUE MAR 15 2016

UPDATED 18Z AVIATION DISCUSSION BELOW...

UPDATE ISSUED AT 904 AM CDT TUE MAR 15 2016

COOL EASTERLY FLOW OFF LAKE SUPERIOR INTO A NEARLY SATURATED
BOUNDARY LAYER AIRMASS..COMBINED WITH SUFFICIENT UPSLOPE ALONG THE
TERRAIN RIDGE CONTINUES TO RESULT IN WIDESPREAD DENSE FOG THIS
MORNING ALONG THE ENTIRE NORTH SHORE OF LAKE SUPERIOR. THESE
PROCESSES WILL PERSIST FOR MUCH OF THE REST OF TODAY..BUT THE
ONSET OF RAIN OVER THE MIDDAY HOURS WILL LIKELY ALLOW VISIBILITIES
TO COME UP A BIT. FOR NOW..WE HAVE HOISTED A DENSE FOG ADVISORY
THROUGH NOON FOR THE AREAS IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THE NORTH SHORE
IN ANTICIPATION OF THE LOW VISIBILITIES PERSISTING AT LEAST UNTIL
THE ONSET OF PRECIP IN ANOTHER FEW HOURS.

THE REMAINDER OF THE FORECAST FOR TODAY APPEARS ON TRACK AND ONLY
A FEW MINOR ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE TO TEMPS AND POPS TO REFLECT
CURRENT TRENDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 358 AM CDT TUE MAR 15 2016

A DEVELOPING POWERFUL SPRING STORM WILL RESULT IN RAIN
TODAY...CHANGING TO SNOW WEDNESDAY. THERE IS A CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS THIS MORNING...MAINLY SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 2 IN EAST
CENTRAL MINNESOTA. RAIN THROUGH THE DAY TODAY...HEAVY AT TIMES.
OVERNIGHT TONIGHT RAIN WILL CHANGE TO SNOW AS A SFC LOW DEEPENS
ACROSS THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY TODAY INTO TONIGHT RACING NORTHWARD
TO CENTRAL WISCONSIN. THIS DEVELOPING LOW WILL RESULT IN COLDER AIR
BEING DRAWN IN FROM THE NORTH...AND THUS THE CHANGE TO SNOW. HEAVY
SNOWFALL RATES EXPECTING THROUGH WEDNESDAY MORNING WITH SNOWFALL
CONTINUING THROUGH THE DAY WEDNESDAY.

ON THE SYNOPTIC SCALE TWO FEATURES OF NOTE...THE FIRST A BROAD
WEAKER SFC LOW ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS THIS MORNING MOVING WITH A
BROAD WARM FRONT EXTENDING FROM IT SOUTHEASTWARD. THIS WARM FRONT
WILL APPROACH THE NORTHLAND THIS MORNING RESULTING IN RAIN...AND
POSSIBLY A FEW THUNDERSTORMS. AS OF 330AM ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS ARE
POPPING UP ACROSS CENTRAL TO SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA...AND THIS ACTIVITY
WILL CONTINUE INTO AREAS SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 2 IN EAST CENTRAL
MINNESOTA THIS MORNING DUE TO A MODEST AMOUNT OF ELEVATED
INSTABILITY. AS THE SFC LOW WRAPS UP INTO SOUTHERN MANITOBA TODAY AN
IMPRESSIVE MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH/VORT MAX WILL SWING EAST
ACROSS THE CENTRAL PLAINS RESULTING IN A SFC LOW DEVELOPING ACROSS
THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY. THE SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND ASSOCIATED SFC
LOW WILL RAPIDLY MOVE NORTH-NORTHEASTWARD TOWARDS WISCONSIN TONIGHT
RESULTING IN AN AREA OF HEAVY PRECIP DEVELOPING DUE TO THE STRONG
LARGE-SCALE LIFT. USUALLY A STORM TRAJECTORY LIKE THIS WOULD BE
MAINLY SNOW THIS TIME OF YEAR...BUT BECAUSE OF THE VERY WARM AND
MOIST AIRMASS ADVECTING NORTH INTO THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY THIS
MORNING THE PRECIP TYPE WILL BE RAIN AT LEAST THROUGH THE EARLY
EVENING. HOWEVER...AS THE SFC LOW IN SOUTHERN CANADA WEAKENS AND THE
SFC LOW DEEPENS IN WISCONSIN COLD AIR WILL BE DRAWN IN RESULTING IN
A CHANGE FROM RAIN TO SNOW....WITH SNOW LINGERING THROUGH WEDNESDAY
AS THE LOW BECOMES VERTICALLY STACKED OVER GREEN BAY WEDNESDAY
AFTERNOON.

TODAY...RAIN WITH ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS. FREEZING HEIGHTS AROUND 5-
7KFT ARE LOW ENOUGH TO RESULT IN SMALL HAIL WITHIN THE STRONGEST
STORMS...BUT OTHERWISE THE MAIN CONCERN WILL BE HEAVY RAIN RATES.
THUNDERSTORMS ARE MOST LIKELY IN EAST CENTRAL MN THIS MORNING BUT
MAY CONTINUE INTO THE AFTERNOON. PWATS WILL APPROACH 8 TENTHS OF AN
INCH WHICH IS NEAR RECORD TERRITORY FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR...MORE
TYPICAL OF MID-SUMMER. TEMPS MILD...IN THE UPPER 40S TO LOW 50S WITH
A LIGHT EAST-SOUTHEAST WINDS AT AROUND 10 MPH THROUGH THE DAY.

TONIGHT...EAST WINDS TURN NORTHEAST AS THE SFC LOW TO THE SOUTH
DEEPENS AND APPROACHES. COLDER AIR WILL BE ADVECTED IN WITH A CHANGE
FROM RAIN TO SNOW BEGINNING AROUND MIDNIGHT ACROSS THE TIP OF THE MN
ARROWHEAD THEN EXPANDING WESTWARD ACROSS THE REST OF THE ARROWHEAD
TOWARDS WEDNESDAY MORNING. HEAVY RAIN RATES LIKELY. TEMPS FALLING TO
THE LOW TO MID 30S ACROSS NORTHEAST MINNESOTA...REMAINING IN THE MID
TO UPPER 30S IN NORTHWEST WISCONSIN. NORTHEAST WINDS GUSTY ALONG THE
NORTH AND SOUTH SHORES WITH WINDS GUSTING TO 30-35 MPH AT TIMES.

WEDNESDAY...RAIN QUICKLY CHANGING TO SNOW ACROSS THE NORTHLAND WITH
A BROAD AREA OF HEAVY SNOWFALL RATES IN THE MORNING. TRAVEL
CONDITIONS WILL RAPIDLY BECOME HAZARDOUS...HEAVY SNOW RATES WILL
LIKELY QUICKLY OVERCOME MILD SFC/ROAD TEMPS. IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT
THERE IS SOME LOWER CONFIDENCE ACROSS NORTH CENTRAL MINNESOTA WHERE
A SHARP WESTERN EDGE IS EXPECTED...AND LOCATIONS SUCH AS THE LEECH
LAKE TO BRAINERD LAKES AREA MIGHT SEE LITTLE TO NO SNOWFALL.
HOWEVER...ACROSS THE HIGHWAY 53 CORRIDOR AND EAST INTO THE MN
ARROWHEAD AND SOUTH SHORE HEAVY SNOW IS LIKELY. IT WILL BE A WET
HEAVY SNOW RESULTING IN ESPECIALLY POOR DRIVING CONDITIONS. TEMPS
WILL LIKELY NOT WARM MUCH...INTO THE MID 30S POSSIBLY...THOUGH AREAS
AWAY FROM LAKE SUPERIOR COULD WARM INTO THE UPPER 30S IF IT IS NOT
SNOWING. WINDS WILL TURN FROM NORTHEAST TO NORTHERLY THROUGH THE
DAY...REMAINING GUSTY ALONG THE LAKE SHORE.

WINTER STORM WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR MUCH OF THE NORTHLAND...FIRST
FOR THE MN ARROWHEAD LATE TONIGHT THEN KOOCHICHING/ITASCA/ST
LOUIS/PINE IN MN AND THE SOUTH SHORE COUNTIES IN NORTHWEST WISCONSIN
BEGINNING WEDNESDAY MORNING. IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT TRANSITION
TIME TO SNOW COULD BE EARLIER OR LATER THAN CURRENTLY
ANTICIPATED...AND THIS HAS THE POSSIBILITY TO IMPACT SNOWFALL
FORECAST. CURRENT FORECAST IS OUR BEST PREDICTION AT THIS POINT
WITH 6 TO 10 INCHES ACROSS THE MN ARROWHEAD...TWIN PORTS...AND
SOUTH SHORE...WITH 4 TO 8 INCHES ALONG THE NORTH OF THE IRON
RANGE. THIS LOOKS TO BE LIKE AN ESPECIALLY HIGH IMPACT STORM FOR
THE WEDNESDAY MORNING COMMUTE...POSSIBLY SOME OF THE MOST INTENSE
SNOWFALL RATES SO FAR THIS WINTER.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 358 AM CDT TUE MAR 15 2016

THE POWERFUL EARLY SPRING STORM WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE
NORTHLAND WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO AT LEAST THURSDAY. STRONG LIFT AND
PLENTY OF MOISTURE WILL KEEP PRECIPITATION GOING WEDNESDAY
NIGHT...THEN IT WILL SLOWLY DIMINISH FROM NORTH TO SOUTH THURSDAY
INTO THURSDAY NIGHT.

THE MODELS ARE IN PRETTY GOOD AGREEMENT ON MOST OF THE
FEATURES...BUT AGAIN DIFFER ON THEIR QPF. HOWEVER...THE AXIS OF
HIGHEST QPF IS CLOSE. A STRONG UPPER LOW WILL BE OVER NORTHEAST
WISCONSIN EARLY WEDNESDAY EVENING AND IT WILL MOVE LITTLE
OVERNIGHT...THEN SAG A LITTLE SOUTH ON THURSDAY AS AN UPPER RIDGE
NOSES ITS WAY SOUTH. THE SURFACE LOW WILL ALSO MOVE LITTLE WEDNESDAY
NIGHT...THEN WEAKEN DURING THE DAY THURSDAY AS IT SINKS SOUTH.
MAINLY SNOW WILL BE FALLING EARLY WEDNESDAY EVENING ALONG AND NORTH
OF HIGHWAY 2 IN MINNESOTA...WITH RAIN OR A MIX OVER SOUTHERN AREAS.
THE TRANSITION TO ALL SNOW WILL OCCUR THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS AND
CONTINUE INTO THURSDAY FOR MUCH OF THE AREA. BOUNDARY LAYER TEMPS
MAY WARM ENOUGH FOR A MIX OR TRANSITION BACK TO RAIN OVER MAINLY
SOUTHERN AREAS THURSDAY AFTERNOON. ADDITIONAL SNOWFALL WEDNESDAY
NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY WILL RANGE FROM 1 TO 2 INCHES ALONG THE
INTERNATIONAL BORDER TO 3 TO 6 INCHES ALONG THE SOUTH SHORE
COUNTIES. IN ADDITION TO THE SNOW...THERE WILL BE STRONG WINDS NEAR
LAKE SUPERIOR INTO THURSDAY.

MOST OF THE GUIDANCE AGREES IN DIMINISHING THE PRECIPITATION
SUBSTANTIALLY THURSDAY NIGHT AS THE LOW WEAKENS AND SHIFTS SOUTH.
TEMPERATURES WILL NOT BE COLD ENOUGH FOR LAKE EFFECT.

WE HAVE SOME LOW CHANCES FOR RAIN OR SNOW WITH MAINLY WEAKER SYSTEMS
THROUGH THE REST OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD.

HIGHS THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY WILL MAINLY BE IN THE THIRTIES.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 1257 PM CDT TUE MAR 15 2016

A DEVELOPING AREA OF LOW PRESSURE WILL BRING RAIN TO MUCH OF THE
AREA THIS AFTERNOON AND THIS EVENING. THE RAIN WILL CHANGE TO SNOW
FOR MOST LOCATIONS LATE OVERNIGHT...WITH HEAVY SNOW LIKELY. ONLY
BRD IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN WARM ENOUGH TO CARRY A RAIN/SNOW MIX.
VISIBILITIES HAVE BEEN CHALLENGING THIS MORNING...AND ARE EXPECTED
TO VARY BETWEEN LOW IFR AND MVFR THIS AFTERNOON. OVERALL
CONFIDENCE IN VSBYS/CIGS REMAINS LOW...INCREASING TO MEDIUM
OVERNIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. THE CHANGE FROM RAIN TO SNOW WILL LIKELY
BE ABRUPT...HOWEVER...THERE REMAINS SOME UNCERTAINTY IN THE
TIMING. HAVE ELECTED TO CONVEY THE UNCERTAINTY WITH TEMPO +RASN
MENTIONS AT THE AFFECTED TERMINALS. PERIODS OF HEAVY SNOW ARE
LIKELY AT HIB/HYR/DLH...WITH MODERATE SNOW EXPECTED AT INL. WITH
THE ABUNDANT LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE...THINK FOG WILL KEEP VSBYS LOW
EVEN DURING PERIODS WHEN SNOW INTENSITIES DIMINISH.

WINDS ALOFT ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE OVERNIGHT AT OVER MOST
TERMINALS...WHICH SHOULD RESULT IN WIND GUSTS FOR MOST SITES. LOW
LEVEL WIND SHEAR IS A THREAT THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THE
OVERNIGHT...BUT OPTED TO FOCUS ON WIND GUSTS INSTEAD OF EXPLICIT
LLWS MENTIONS. IF THE NEAR-SURFACE LAYER IS ABLE TO DECOUPLE FROM
THE FLOW ALOFT...LATER UPDATES WOULD NEED TO FOCUS ON THE LLWS
THREAT.
