AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
327 AM CST FRI JAN 8 2016

.TODAY AND TONIGHT... FORECAST CONFIDENCE - MEDIUM.

PERIODS OF LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT SOUTHERN
WI TODAY AS LOW PRESSURE OVER WESTERN MO MOVES NORTHEAST INTO SRN WI
BY EVE.  WEAK CONVERGENCE AND A MOIST ATMOSPHERE ALONG WITH SEVERAL
PASSING MID-LEVEL SHORT WAVES ARE EXPECTED TO CAUSE THE LIGHT
PRECIPITATION.  APPEARS LOW LEVELS OF ATMOSPHERE HAVE WARMED ENOUGH
IN THE REEDSBURG...WESTFIELD AND BERLIN AREAS TO CHANGE THE
OCCASIONAL RAIN AND SNOW MIX OVER TO RAIN.  PAVEMENT SENSOR IN
MARQUETTE COUNTY REPORTS A TEMPERATURE JUST ABOVE FREEZING AT 08Z SO
FREEZING RAIN THREAT HAS ENDED IN THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF CWA.

MOIST AIR MASS AND DECREASING BOUNDARY LAYER WINDS ALONG WITH
MELTING SNOW WILL RESULT IN FOG OVERSPREADING SOUTHERN WI TODAY AND
THIS EVENING.  FOG MAY BECOME DENSE AND ADVISORY MAY BE REQUIRED
LATER TODAY.  FOR NOW...WL ISSUE SPS ADDRESSING CONCERN.  COLDER AIR
AND INCREASING WINDS LATER TONIGHT SHOULD THIN THE FOG FROM LATE
EVENING IN THE WEST TO AFTER MIDNIGHT IN THE EAST.  BEST LIFT FROM
PASSING LOW MOVES OFF TO THE NORTHEAST TONIGHT BUT COLDER AIR MAY
RESULT IN A CHANGEOVER TO -SN ACROSS THE WEST BEFORE THE PRECIP
ENDS. LITTLE SNOW ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED.

.SATURDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

MODELS HAVE GENERALLY SHIFTED EASTWARD WITH SATURDAY/SATURDAY
NIGHT SNOW POTENTIAL COMPARED TO 24 HOURS AGO. A MODEL CONSENSUS
OF THE SURFACE LOW TAKES IT FROM AROUND THE SOUTHERN TIP OF
INDIANA SATURDAY EVENING TO NORTHERN OHIO BY SUNDAY MORNING. THIS
TRACK IS WELL SOUTH OF THE THE TYPICAL LOW TRACK FOR SIGNIFICANT
SNOW EVENTS IN SOUTHERN WISCONSIN. STILL LOOKS LIKE A COUPLE
INCHES IN THE EAST THOUGH EVEN WITH FARTHER EAST TRACK. CURRENT
FORECAST TOTALS RANGE FROM LESS THAN HALF AN INCH IN THE FAR
WEST...TO 2-3 INCHES IN THE EAST. BULK OF SNOW IS EXPECTED TO
FALL FROM LATE AFTERNOON UNTIL THE EARLY MORNING HOURS SUNDAY.

IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT THE 00Z RUN OF THE CANADIAN REMAINED A
BIT FARTHER WEST WITH HIGHER SNOW TOTALS FOR THE FORECAST
AREA...AND THE 06Z RUN OF THE NAM HAS SHIFTED WEST A BIT...NOW
SIMILAR TO THE CANADIAN. SO...THIS SYSTEM STILL BEARS
WATCHING...AS MODELS HAVE NOT SETTLED DOWN QUITE YET.

WINDS WILL PICK UP ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE DEEPENING LOW SATURDAY
NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. COULD SEE SOME BLOWING SNOW IN THE
EAST...DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH SNOW FALLS.

TEMPS SATURDAY WILL GRADUALLY FALL THROUGH THE DAY AS COLDER AIR
MOVES IN BEHIND THE FIRST DEPARTING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM.

.SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM

MODELS CONTINUE TO SUGGEST THE COLDEST AIR OF THE SEASON THUS FAR
WILL ARRIVE EARLY NEXT WEEK. HIGHS ARE EXPECTED TO ONLY TOP OUT IN
THE 10 TO 20 RANGE...THOUGH MAY NOT CLIMB OUT OF THE SINGLE
DIGITS SOME LOCATIONS. SOME OVERNIGHT BELOW ZERO READINGS STILL
LOOK POSSIBLE AT TIMES DURING THIS PERIOD.

MODELS ARE COMING INTO BETTER AGREEMENT THAT A DEVELOPING LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BRING A LITTLE LIGHT SNOW MONDAY AND MONDAY
NIGHT...WITH MAYBE AN INCH OR SO POSSIBLE. OTHERWISE...IT LOOKS
PRETTY DRY MUCH OF THE TIME FROM SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY.

&&

.AVIATION/12Z TAFS/...

OCCASIONAL LIGHT RAIN AND DRIZZLE WILL CONTINUE TO AFFECT TAF SITES
TODAY INTO THIS EVENING BEFORE DIMINISHING.  A LITTLE LIGHT SNOW MAY
AFFECT KMSN LATE TNGT.  EXPECT FOG TO OVERSPREAD SOUTHERN WI AS LOW
LEVEL WINDS DIMINISH THROUGH THE DAY DUE TO APPROACHING LOW PRESSURE
FROM MO.  FOG MAY BECOME DENSE AT ALL TAF SITES THIS AFTN AND EVE.
VFR CIGS SHOULD LOWER TO MVFR AND LOWER THROUGH THE MORNING.

&&

.MARINE...

LIGHTER WINDS ARE EXPECTED AS LOW PRESSURE OVER MISSOURI MOVES
TOWARD THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES TODAY AND ACROSS LAKE MI TONIGHT.
AREAS OF FOG WILL DEVELOP AS THE WINDS DIMINISH TO MOSTLY BELOW
10KTS LATER TODAY INTO TONIGHT.  THE FOG MAY BECOME DENSE AT TIMES.

STRENGTHENING LOW PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO PASS SOUTHEAST OF LAKE
MICHIGAN SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING.  A TIGHTENING PRESSURE
GRADIENT ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW AND A SURGE OF MUCH COLDER AIR
ACROSS THE WARMER LAKE WATERS WILL CAUSE WINDS TO LIKELY REACH SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS FROM LATE SAT AFTERNOON THROUGH SUNDAY.  THE
TIGHTEST GRADIENT AND STRONGEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED OVER THE OPEN
WATERS OF THE LAKE AND ACROSS THE SOUTH.  FREQUENT GUSTS TO GALE
FORCE MAY OCCUR SAT NIGHT INTO SUN MRNG SOUTH OF WIND POINT.  HENCE
A GALE WATCH IS BEING POSTED FOR LMZ646.
