AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MILWAUKEE/SULLIVAN WI
336 PM CST TUE JAN 26 2016

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT

.TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE IS MEDIUM

A CONCENTRATED MID-LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH LOOKS TO TRANSLATE THROUGH
S WI THIS EVENING....WHICH SHOULD BRING ANOTHER ROUND OF LIGHT SNOW
SHOWERS TO S WI FOR THE EVENING. ACCUMULATIONS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO
BE VERY MUCH...BETWEEN A FEW TENTHS TO LESS THAN ONE INCH AMOUNTS
ARE EXPECTED. DESPITE LOW SNOW ACCUMULATIONS...THERE COULD BE SOME
DECENT BURSTS OF SNOW...WHICH COULD REDUCE VISIBILITIES...DUE TO
ENHANCED MOISTENING IN THE LOW- TO MID-LEVELS. RAP BUFKIT SOUNDINGS
INDICATE SATURATION IN THE DENDRITIC GROWTH ZONE...WHICH COULD LEAD
TO THESE BURSTS OF LIGHT SNOW. ISENTROPIC LIFT WITHIN THE SATURATION
LAYER SHOULD HELP SUPPORT THIS LIGHT SNOW AS WELL. THE HIGHEST SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS SHOULD STAY OVER THE NORTHERN HALF OF OUR FORECAST
AREA.

THE SHORTWAVE IS PROGGED TO MOVE OUT QUICKLY TONIGHT NEAR
06Z...WHICH SHOULD PUT US INTO A NORTHWEST FLOW REGIME THROUGH MOST
OF THE DAY WEDNESDAY. THE NORTHWESTERLY FLOW WILL ENHANCE COLD AIR
ADVECTION OVER OUR REGION... WITH LOWS TONIGHT IN THE MID TO UPPER
TEENS FAHRENHEIT.

WEDNESDAY LOOKS TO BE QUIET AS A CORRIDOR OF NEGATIVE VORTICITY
ADVECTION AND SUBSIDENCE MOVES IN. TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN
SEASONABLE...THANKS TO BACKING WINDS TO A MORE SOUTHWESTERLY
DIRECTION DURING THE DAY. HIGHS SHOULD BE IN THE UPPER 20S TO LOWER
30S. THERE SHOULD BE ANOTHER CHANCE OF LIGHT SNOW RETURNING TO S WI
LATE WEDNESDAY IN THE LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING...BUT ACCUMULATIONS
SHOULD REMAIN LOW ONCE AGAIN FOR THAT EVENT.

.WEDNESDAY NIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE HIGH

VIGOROUS SHORT WAVE DROPS THROUGH REGION UNDER ULD IN LEFT EXIT
REGION OF UPPER JET BETWEEN 00Z AND 06Z. WARM ADVECTION WING DROPS
ACROSS CWA BETWEEN 00Z AND 06Z...WITH THE STRONGER LOW-LAYER Q-
VECTOR CONVERGENCE MOVING SOUTHEAST OUT OF THE CWA AROUND 06Z.
WILL TIME LIGHT SNOW INTO THE AREA WITH THE STINKIER ISENTROPIC
ADIABATIC OMEGA AND LOWER CONDENSATION PRESSURE DEFICITS SHOWN ON
THE ISENTROPIC FORECASTS...WHICH ALIGN WITH THE NARROW TIME PERIOD
OF DEEP LAYER MOISTURE AND LIFT REFLECTED IN THE FORECAST
SOUNDINGS.

MID-UPPER LAYER Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE REMAINS STRONG AHEAD OF THE
VORT MAX...BUT MID-LEVELS DRYING OUT AFTER 06Z. STILL TOP OF MOIST
LAYER TOUCHING THE -10C SO WILL KEEP SLIGHT CHANCE POPS AS SNOW
OVERNIGHT. SNOW WILL TAPER OFF AS FORCING WITH MID-UPPER TROUGH AXES
SHIFT EAST BY 12Z THURSDAY.

WARM ADVECTION BRINGS EVENING LOWS IN THE MID TO UPPER 20S THEN
SLOWLY RISING TEMPERATURES INTO THE LOWER 30S OVERNIGHT.

.THURSDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM

MODELS PAINTING OUT SOME LIGHT QPF WITH SECONDARY VORT MAX SWEEPS
ACROSS WISCONSIN LATE THURSDAY MORNING/AFTERNOON. GFS AND ECMWF MORE
ROBUST WITH MOISTURE AND LIFT BUT MOISTURE IS SHALLOW ON SOUNDINGS.
WILL LEAVE DRY FOR NOW BUT COULD SEE SOME FLURRIES. ABOVE NORMAL
HIGHS IN THE MID 30S IN THE BLENDED SOLUTIONS LOOK REASONABLE.

.THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT...FORECAST CONFIDENCE MEDIUM

SHORT WAVE RIDGING BRINGS A DRY THURSDAY NIGHT...WITH LOWS IN
THE TEENS TO LOWER 20S. FLOWS TRANSITIONING TO A MORE ZONAL
ORIENTATION FRIDAY. ANOTHER STRONG SHORT WAVE UNDER THE UPPER LEVEL
DIVERGENCE IN THE RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF AN UPPER JET STREAK TAKES
THE ASSOCIATED SURFACE LOW ALONG THE U.S./CANADIAN BORDER FRIDAY AND
LAKE SUPERIOR FRIDAY NIGHT.

WARM ADVECTION PCPN LOOKS TO BRUSH THE NORTHERN CWA FRIDAY
AFTERNOON...FOLLOWED BY DYNAMICALLY FORCED PCPN AS THE TROUGH
CROSSES THE REGION FRIDAY NIGHT. CONSENSUS OF MODELS PUTS HEAVIEST
PCPN AND HIGHEST POPS ACROSS NRN WI CLOSER TO THE TRACK OF THE
SURFACE LOW. 925 MB TEMPS IN THE WARM ADVECTION BRING FRIDAY HIGHS
INTO THE LOW TO MID 30S...WITH NO DROP OFF IN THE WESTERLY FLOW
BEHIND THE WAVE FRIDAY NIGHT BRINGING LOWS AROUND 30.

.LONG TERM...SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE LOW

MODEL DIFFERENCES ABOUND WITH TIMING/STRENGTH OF SHORT WAVES IN
THE ZONAL UPPER FLOW THAT SETS UP OVER REGION. LOOKS WARM AND DRY
SATURDAY WITH HIGHS AROUND 40. THEN A PROLONGED PERIOD OF
SLIGHT/CHANCE POPS WITH SERIES OF SHORT WAVES MOVING ALONG
BAROCLINIC ZONE THAT SETS UP OVER THE REGION. ECMWF AND CANADIAN
GEM PUT PCPN OVER NRN WI SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY...WHILE MORE
VIGOROUS LOW IN THE GFS BRINGS A GOOD SLUG OF PCPN TO THE ENTIRE
STATE.

SYSTEM TO WATCH WILL BE DEVELOPING IN THE SOUTHERN PLAINS MONDAY
NIGHT AND LIFTING NE TOWARDS THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES...AFFECTING THE
AREA TUESDAY INTO TUESDAY NIGHT WITH THE FASTER ECMWF...OR TUESDAY
NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY WITH THE SLOWER GFS SOLUTION. LOOKS AS IF THE SE
HALF OF THE CWA WOULD SEE SOME LIQUID PCPN AT THE OUTSET...THOUGH
GFS IS A BIT COOLER THAN THE ECMWF WITH ALL SNOW MORE LIKELY. TIGHT
GRADIENT AROUND LOW WILL ASSURE WINDY CONDITIONS.

&&

.AVIATION/00Z TAFS/...

MAINLY MVFR CIGS ARE FORECAST FOR THE TAF
SITES TONIGHT AND OVERNIGHT. CIG HEIGHTS SHOULD REMAIN BETWEEN 1-3
KFT...WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR MVFR AND ISOLATED IFR VSBYS AS LIGHT
SNOW SHOWERS AND FLURRIES MOVE THROUGH THE AREA THIS EVENING.
HOWEVER...SNOW SHOWERS SHOULD TAPER OFF BY THE LATE EVENING. WINDS
SHOULD ALSO DIMINISH THIS EVENING.

&&

.MARINE...

A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONTINUES INTO THIS EVENING FOR
BRISK AND GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS DUE TO INTENSIFYING LOW PRESSURE THAT
IS MOVING AWAY ACROSS NORTHERN LOWER MI AND INTO CANADA. ANOTHER
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL LIKELY BE NEEDED FROM WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
INTO THURSDAY MORNING AS STRONG LOW PRESSURE MOVES ACROSS SOUTHERN
CANADA. BREEZY SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS AND WIND GUSTS APPROACHING GALE
FORCE ARE FORECAST.
