AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI
623 PM CDT WED MAR 16 2016

UPDATED AVIATION PORTION FOR 00Z TAF ISSUANCE

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND THURSDAY
ISSUED AT 345 PM CDT WED MAR 16 2016

SOME OF THE FORECAST CHALLENGES IN THE SHORT TERM INCLUDE WINDS IN
CENTRAL AND EAST CENTRAL WISCONSIN AND SNOW AMOUNTS AND TIMING.

12Z MODELS INDICATED 50+ KNOT WINDS AT 925MB AND 850MB TODAY
ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PART OF THE FORECAST AREA AND INTO THE MKX
FORECAST AREA. THERE HAVE BEEN SOME GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 45 KNOTS AS
HIGHER WINDS MIXED TO THE SURFACE WITH WARMING TEMPERATURES AND
INCREASED LOW LEVEL INSTABILITY. HAVE OPTED TO KEEP THE ADVISORY
GOING AS NO OBSERVATIONS INDICATED GUSTS AS HIGH AS 50 KNOTS NEAR
THE AREA SO FAR. WINDS SHOULD START TO DIMINISH WITH LOSS OF
DAYTIME HEATING.

THE PRECIPITATION FORECAST IS MORE OF A CHALLENGE AND CONFIDENCE
LEVEL IS MUCH LOWER. RAIN CHANGED TO SNOW ACROSS PARTS OF CENTRAL
WISCONSIN EARLY THIS AFTERNOON...BUT BASED ON WEBCAMS IT ONLY
APPEARED TO BE STICKING TO UNPAVED GROUND. ENDED UP STARTING THE
WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY AT NOON DUE TO LOW VISIBILITIES AND
TEMPERATURES MAINLY IN THE LOWER HALF OF THE 30S. THINK SNOW
TOTALS IN THE 3 TO 8 INCH RANGE IN THE ADVISORY AREA SEEM REASONABLE
FOR NOW...BUT ALSO THINK THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THAT THE ADVISORY
MAY NEED TO BE CANCELED EARLY.

PRECIPITATION TYPE WILL EVENTUALLY CHANGE TO SNOW ACROSS THE REST
OF THE AREA. THERE SHOULD BE SOME LOCATIONS THAT CHANGE BACK TO
RAIN AS TEMPERATURES WARM UP ON THURSDAY...BUT NORTHERN WISCONSIN
SHOULD SEE MAINLY RAIN.

.LONG TERM...THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY
ISSUED AT 345 PM CDT WED MAR 16 2016

UPPER TROUGH DROPS SOUTH OF THE FORECAST AREA THURSDAY
NIGHT AND FRIDAY RESULTING IN SNOW SHOWERS ENDING THURSDAY EVENING.
A WEAK UPPER SYSTEM IS FORECAST TO MOVE EAST SOUTHEAST FROM SOUTH DAKOTA
TOWARDS NORTHERN ILLINOIS FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT BUT
PRECIPITATION SHOULD STAY TO OUR SOUTH. NORTHWEST UPPER FLOW EXPECTED
SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT WITH MAYBE SOME LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS
IN THE FAR NORTH. AN UPPER TROUGH MOVING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS
AND WESTERN GREAT LAKES SHOULD BRING SOME LIGHT SNOW MONDAY NIGHT AND
LIGHT RAIN OR SNOW TUESDAY. TEMPERATURES SHOULD AVERAGE 5 TO 10
DEGREES BELOW NORMAL.
&&

.AVIATION...FOR 00Z TAF ISSUANCE
ISSUED AT 623 PM CDT WED MAR 16 2016

SNOW SHOWERS AND MVFR CONDITIONS PREVAILED ACROSS THE NORTHERN TAF
SITES EARLY THIS EVENING...WITH RAIN SHOWERS AND MVFR CONDITIONS
ACROSS THE SOUTHEASTERN TAF SITES. OUT TO THE WEST MVFR CONDITIONS
AND A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW WERE NOTED. COLDER AIR WILL SLOWLY
CHANGE THE REMAINING SNOW OVER TO RAIN THIS EVENING. ACCUMULATING
SNOW WILL MAINLY BE LIMITED TO NORTH CENTRAL WISCONSIN...HOWEVER
SOME MINOR AMOUNTS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS CENTRAL WISCONSIN. WINDS
WILL SLOWLY SUBSIDE TONIGHT AND INTO THURSDAY AS THE PRESSURE
GRADIENT LOOSENS.
&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 345 PM CDT WED MAR 16 2016

RAINFALL TOTALS IN THE 1.5 TO 3.5 INCH RANGE IN CENTRAL WISCONSIN
RESULTED IN SIGNIFICANT RISES ON RIVERS IN THAT PART OF THE
STATE...AS WELL AS DOWNSTREAM. SEVERAL RIVER FLOOD WARNINGS WERE
IN EFFECT AS OF LATE THIS AFTERNOON. ADDITIONAL PRECIPITATION
TOTALS SHOULD BE MUCH LOWER AND ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE IN THE FORM
OF SNOW SO THEY SHOULD NOT MAKE THE FLOODING SITUATION MUCH
WORSE.
&&
