1044 PM CST Mon Dec 26 2016

Updated aviation portion for 06Z TAF issuance

.UPDATE...
Issued at 746 PM CST Mon Dec 26 2016

A few locations still flirting with advisory criteria winds, but
it looks like winds should begin to edge down shortly. Don't see
much point in extending advisory for a couple hours. Will allow
it to expire everywhere except the Door, where it goes until
midnight.

.SHORT TERM...Tonight and Tuesday
Issued at 238 PM CST Mon Dec 26 2016

An interesting afternoon across northeast Wisconsin with record or
near record warmth along the lakeshore and Fox Valley, southwest
winds of 20 to 35 mph with gusts of 40 to 50 mph with locally
higher gusts, and some light snow across the north.

Strong winds continued as of 2 pm with higher gusts finally
reaching Green Bay. Have received some reports of wind gusts at
or slightly above 50 mph and some minor damage to trees along with
sporadic power outages. Expanded the wind advisory across the
north late this morning, and this is where we have seen some of
the highest wind gusts today. Antigo, Rhinelander, and Eagle
River all gusted over 45 mph. The wind advisory remain in effect
until 8 pm, except across Door County where it was extended to
midnight to account for deeper mixing over the bay of Green Bay
and the slower departure of the stronger winds.

Main story for tonight and Tuesday will be the much colder air
which is now working into northeast Wisconsin. Highs will be
in the teens to middle 20s, a far cry from the upper 30s and 40s
of today.

.LONG TERM...Tuesday Night Through Monday
Issued at 238 PM CST Mon Dec 26 2016

A ridge of high pressure will slide over the area Tuesday night
into Wednesday for a stretch of quiet weather. A series of weak
clipper systems are then progged to track over mainly the
northern Great Lakes region during this period. The first clipper
system expected Wednesday night into Thursday, and a second toward
Saturday. Surface lows with each system tracking north and east of
the area. This will provide snow chances primarily with a brief
warm air advection chance of light snow followed with lake effect
snow showers due to northwest winds and colder air filtering into
the area on the wake of each system.

Looking beyond the weekend, progs are starting to focus on a
storm system for the start of next week. The latest ECMWf and GFS
track the 850 low west of the forecast area, producing a possible
mix type event for eastern Wisconsin.

.AVIATION...for 06Z TAF Issuance

snow showers and flurries across the area, but those should
diminish overnight.
