321 AM CDT WED MAR 16 2016
.SHORT TERM...
TODAY AND TONIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...MEDIUM
DEEPENING SFC LOW OVER SOUTH CENTRAL WI...JUST EAST OF KDLL. SFC
LOW HAS BEEN DEEPENING ABOUT 1MB IN THE LAST 4 HOURS OR SO AND IS
CURRENTLY AT 992MB. EXPECT THIS DEEPENING TO CONTINUE AS IT TRACKS
NORTHEAST TOWARD GREEN BAY THIS MORNING. RAPIDLY TIGHTENING
PRESSURE GRADIENT BEHIND THIS LOW WILL SPREAD ACROSS CWA THIS
MORNING. 3 HOUR PRESSURE RISES HAVE BEEN 3 TO AS MUCH AS 5MB OVER
THE CENTRAL MS VALLEY. THIS STRONG ISALLOBARIC RESPONSE TO THE
DEEPENING LOW WILL SWING NORTHWARD ACROSS SOUTHERN WI TODAY AS 925MB
WINDS INCREASE TO 50 TO 55KTS THIS MRNG. 850MB WINDS INCREASE TO 55-
65KTS. BUFKIT FORECAST SOUNDINGS FROM RAP...NAM AND GFS ALL SHOW
STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND MIXING TO 2-2.5K FEET LATER THIS
MRNG AND AFTN. REACHING THIS LEVEL WOULD ALLOW DOWNWARD MOMENTUM
TRANSFER OF 50KTS POTENTIALLY REACHING SFC. HENCE WL UPGRADE HIGH
WIND WATCH TO HIGH WIND WARNING WITH NEW ISSUANCE. STRONG LOW LEVEL
WINDS LOOK TO BE TAPED ACROSS NORTHERN CWA AS WELL ESPECIALLY WITH
MORE STRATIFORM RAIN TURNING MORE SHOWERY THIS AFTN. HENCE WL
UPGRADE WIND ADVISORY TO HIGH WIND WARNING AND INCLUDE NORTHERN TIER
OF COUNTIES AS WELL.
STRONG DEFORMATION AND MID-UPPER LEVEL Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE WILL
CONTINUE TO BRING SHOWERS TO THE AREA THIS MORNING. STRENGTHENING
MID-LEVEL DEFORMATION WILL CONTINUE TO BRING SHOWERS TO NORTHERN CWA
THIS AFTN INTO TONIGHT. MID-LEVEL SHORT WAVE ROTATING AROUND UPPER
LOW OVER UPPER MI MAY BRING SOME -SHRA TO REST OF CWA TONIGHT.
COLDER AIR FUNNELING SOUTHWARD MAY BRING A -RA/-SN MIX TO THE
NORTHERN CWA TONIGHT WITH LITTLE IF ANY ACCUMULATION.
SHORT TERM GUIDANCE IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH EDGE GOING TO MORE
CONSISTENT GFS FOR NEXT 24 HOURS. HOWEVER YESTERDAYS NAM DID
SLIGHTLY BETTER WITH SFC LOW PLACEMENT THIS MRNG.
.LONG TERM...
THURSDAY... FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM.
THE CENTER OF THE SURFACE AND 500MB LOWS WILL BE OVER NORTHERN LOWER
MICHIGAN AT 12Z THU. THEY WILL WEAKEN AND DRIFT EAST ACROSS THE
EASTERN GREAT LAKES THU AND THU NIGHT. A TROUGH EXTENDING TO ITS
WEST WILL SLIDE SOUTH THROUGH SOUTHERN WI THU AFTERNOON. COLD
ADVECTION AND VORTICITY ADVECTION WILL LEAD TO SCATTERED SHOWERS THU
AFTERNOON WITH THIS TROUGH. ANY SHOWERS THAT LINGER THU NIGHT WILL
CHANGE OVER TO A RAIN SNOW MIX AND EVENTUALLY SNOW AS 925-850MB
TEMPERATURES FALL. NO SNOW ACCUMULATION FOR SOUTHERN WI WITH THIS
EVENT.
FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY... FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM.
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL KEEP THE WEATHER QUIET AND COOL FOR THE
WEEKEND IN SOUTHERN WI. A CLOSED 500MB LOW WILL TRACK THROUGH THE
MIDWEST BUT ANY PRECIP ASSOCIATED WITH IT WILL STAY TO THE SOUTH OF
WI.
SOUTHERN WI WILL BE UNDER A NORTHWEST FLOW PATTERN IN THE WAKE OF AN
AMPLIFIED UPPER TROUGH ON MONDAY. THIS WILL KEEP TEMPS COOL ANOTHER
DAY.
TUESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY... FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM.
A MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE WILL EJECT OUT OF THE NORTHERN PLAINS MONDAY
NIGHT. THIS WILL PUSH A WARM FRONT INTO WI. IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL
BE A DECENT LOW LEVEL JET WITH THE WARM FRONT. THIS SETUP SHOULD
GIVE AREAS OF WI THE POTENTIAL FOR THUNDERSTORMS TUE AFTERNOON.
THERE ARE DISCREPANCIES ABOUT HOW FAR NORTH THE WARM FRONT WILL LIFT
BEFORE THE LOW TRACKS ACROSS WI ON WED. THEN THE TRAILING COLD FRONT
SHOULD BRING A CHANCE FOR SNOW TO SOUTHERN WI ON THU.

.AVIATION/12Z TAFS/...
THUNDER THREAT HAS SHIFTED NORTH WITH SFC LOW PRESSURE AND
OCCLUDED FRONT. SHOWERS WILL PERSIST THIS MORNING WITH MORE
ISOLD TO SCAT SHOWERS IN THE AFTN AND EVE. CIGS SHOULD RISE TO
VFR LATER THIS MRNG INTO TNGT.
STILL EXPECT VERY STRONG WINDS TODAY WITH GUSTS FROM THE WSW
POTENTIALLY REACHING 50KTS. THE STRONG WINDS WILL DIMINISH RAPIDLY
DURING THE LATE AFTN AND EARLY EVE.
&&
.MARINE...
SFC LOW PRESSURE OVER SOUTH CENTRAL WI HAS BEEN DEEPENING ABOUT
1MB AN HOUR SINCE 05Z AND IS CURRENTLY AROUND 992MB. THE LOW WILL
CONTINUE DEEPENING THIS MORNING AS IT MOVES NORTHEAST TOWARD GREEN
BAY. RAPIDLY TIGHTENING PRESSURE GRADIENT ASSOCIATED WITH THIS LOW
AND STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES WILL ALLOW VERY STRONG WINDS TO MIX
DOWN TO THE SURFACE TODAY. A FEW WIND GUSTS ARE EXPECTED TO
APPROACH 50 KTS BEGINNING THIS MORNING SOUTH OF NORTH POINT LIGHT
AND LATE MORNING INTO THE AFTN NORTH OF NORTH POINT LIGHT.
AFTN SHOWERS MAY ALSO PULL DOWN THOSE STRONG WINDS TO THE SURFACE
BECAUSE OF THE STEEP LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES IN THE NORTH. HENCE WL
POST STORM WARNING FOR ENTIRE MARINE AREA FOR TODAY. WARNING WL RUN
THRU 01Z/THU. A BRIEF PERIOD OF GALE CONDITIONS FOLLOWED BY SMALL
CRAFT CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST TONIGHT AND THURSDAY. STRONG
OFFSHORE WINDS AND COLDER AIR SHOULD ELIMINATE DENSE FOG THREAT.
