.UPDATE...

.AVIATION/06Z TAFS/...VFR CONDITIONS WITH ONLY FEW-SCT CIRRUS
CLOUDS FOR SAT AND SAT NT...BUT BREEZY SWLY WINDS ARE EXPECTED. LLWS
IS MARGINAL FOR EARLY MORNING SAT WITH A SWLY LLJ OF 35-40 KTS.
HOWEVER LLWS IS FORECAST FOR SAT NT AS THE SWLY LLJ INCREASES TO
50-55 KTS IN THE EVENING.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 256 PM CST FRI FEB 26 2016/

TONIGHT AND SATURDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE...HIGH

NORTHWEST FLOW WILL PREVAIL THROUGH MUCH OF THE UPPER AND MIDDLE
TROPOSPHERE THIS EVENING BEFORE GRADUALLY TURNING MORE ZONAL
OVERNIGHT AND ON SATURDAY. CLOSER TO THE SURFACE...WINDS HAVE
ALREADY BEGUN TO BACK TO THE SW. THIS WILL RESULT IN STRONG WAA
THOUGH THE NIGHT AND INTO TOMORROW. ONCE THE CLOUDS MOVE OUT EARLY
THIS EVENING...THE COLUMN WILL REMAIN LARGELY UNSATURATED THROUGH
THE PERIOD. DESPITE THE MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES...TEMPS WILL NOT FALL
MUCH TONIGHT FROM THE AFTERNOON READINGS THANKS TO THE STRONG WAA.
A WARMUP WILL BEGIN IN EARNEST TOMORROW WITH MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES
ALONG WITH THAT WAA. AM CURRENTLY ON THE HIGH SIDE OF GUIDANCE
WITH HIGHS IN THE MID 50S TOMORROW. 925 MB TEMPS SUGGEST THAT WE
MIGHT GET EVEN WARMER...WITH HIGHS POTENTIALLY APPROACHING 60 IN
THE SW.

SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE IS MEDIUM.

TROUGHING ALOFT WILL GAIN AMPLITUDE WHILE PROGRESSING FROM THE
NORTHERN AND CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS SATURDAY NIGHT...THROUGH THE
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY ON SUNDAY...AND INTO THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES
AND OHIO VALLEY SUNDAY NIGHT. AN ATTENDANT SURFACE LOW WILL ARC
FROM THE DAKOTAS SATURDAY NIGHT...ACROSS SOUTHERN WISCONSIN SUNDAY
AFTERNOON...TO NEAR LAKE ERIE SUNDAY NIGHT. LITTLE MOISTURE TO BE
FOUND IN AREA FORECAST SOUNDINGS SATURDAY NIGHT SO SHOULD SEE
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES FOR AT LEAST THE FIRST PART OF THE NIGHT.
THEREAFTER WE COULD SEE SOME ENCROACHMENT OF HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS IN
ASSOCIATION WITH AN UPPER LEVEL SPEED MAX WHOSE CORE STAYS TO OUR
NORTH ALONG THE INTERNATIONAL BORDER. LOW TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE
ON THE MILD SIDE FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR THANKS TO WARM ADVECTION
AND DOWNWARD MOMENTUM TRANSPORT FROM A 50 KT LOW-LEVEL JET KEEPING
THE BOUNDARY LAYER WELL MIXED OVERNIGHT.

SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN WILL BE IN THE WARM SECTOR AHEAD OF THE
SURFACE LOW ON SUNDAY WITH MILD AND WINDY CONDITIONS. SOME MODEL
DIFFERENCES REGARDING THE STRENGTH OF THE SURFACE LOW AND
ASSOCIATED TEMPERATURE GRADIENT WITH THE 26.00Z AND 26.12Z ECMWF
AND GGEM COMING IN WARMER AND THE 26.12Z GFS ON THE COOLER SIDE.
CONSENSUS BLENDED VALUES GIVE OUR SOUTHEASTERN AREAS HIGHS WELL
INTO THE 50S...WITH COOLER TEMPERATURES IN OUR NORTHWEST. HIGH
TEMPERATURES COULD NEAR OR SURPASS RECORD DAILY VALUES AT MKE / 54
DEG / AND MSN / 56 DEG /. THERE IS SOME WEAK FRONTOGENETICAL
FORCING BY LATE AFTERNOON AS SURFACE FRONT PASSES THROUGH...BUT
FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW VERY LIMITED MOISTURE. KEPT COLLABORATED
CHANCE TO SLIGHT CHANCE POPS DURING THIS TIME.

ATMOSPHERIC PROFILES MOISTEN FOR A TIME SUNDAY EVENING BEHIND THE
SURFACE LOW AND COINCIDENT WITH DIFFERENTIAL CYCLONIC VORTICITY
ADVECTION ALOFT ASSOCIATED WITH THE PASSING UPPER WAVE. THERE
SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT SYNOPTIC-SCALE LIFT TO GENERATE A BIT OF
LIGHT PRECIPITATION FROM SUNDAY EVENING INTO SUNDAY NIGHT.
TEMPERATURES WILL BE FALLING IN COLD ADVECTION REGIME BEHIND THE
SURFACE COLD FRONT SO EXPECT A TRANSITION FROM LIGHT RAIN SUNDAY
EVENING TO LIGHT SNOW OR FLURRIES SUNDAY NIGHT. QUICK LOW-LEVEL
DRYING SUNDAY NIGHT SUGGESTS A LIMITED WINDOW FOR
PRECIPITATION...THUS LITTLE TO NO SNOW ACCUMULATION IS EXPECTED.

QUIET WEATHER IS EXPECTED FOR MONDAY WITH TRANSIENT RIDGING OVER
SOUTHERN WISCONSIN. WARM ADVECTION AHEAD OF LOW PRESSURE OVER
CENTRAL MINNESOTA SHOULD ALLOW HIGHS TO CLIMB INTO THE 40S.

MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY...FORECAST CONFIDENCE IS LOW.

THE PRIMARY FOCUS FOR THIS PERIOD IS ON THE DEVELOPMENT AND
EVOLUTION OF A STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM AS IT TRACKS FROM THE
CENTRAL U.S. INTO THE OHIO VALLEY AND GREAT LAKES REGIONS. THIS
LOW WILL BE STEERED BY AN UPPER LEVEL WAVE WHICH SHOULD MOVE
ONSHORE ALONG THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST COAST ON SUNDAY...BEFORE
DIVING SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE ROCKIES AND INTO THE CENTRAL AND
SOUTHERN PLAINS ON TUESDAY. WHAT REMAINS IN QUESTION IS THE SPEED
OF THIS WAVE AND ITS RESULTANT INTERACTION WITH A LARGE UPPER LOW
PRESSURE CENTER OVER CENTRAL AND EASTERN CANADA. SOME FORECAST
MODELS...IN PARTICULAR THE 26.12Z GFS...SUGGEST A FASTER MOVING
WAVE WITH LESS INTERACTION. THIS WOULD BRING ABOUT A LESS
AMPLIFIED SOLUTION AND A SURFACE LOW TRACK THAT/S FAR ENOUGH EAST
TO KEEP MUCH OF THE PRECIPITATION AWAY FROM US HERE IN SOUTHERN
WISCONSIN. THERE COULD BE A BIT OF LIGHT SNOW MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY WITH THIS SOLUTION. IN CONTRAST...THE 26.00Z AND 26.12Z
ECMWF SOLUTIONS FAVOR A SLOWER WAVE WITH MORE TIME TO INTERACT
WITH THE CANADIAN CYCLONE. THIS WOULD BRING ABOUT A MORE AMPLIFIED
WAVE WITH A STRONGER SURFACE LOW TRACKING SOMEWHERE ACROSS THE
WESTERN OR CENTRAL GREAT LAKES TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. THIS
TRACK WOULD BE MORE FAVORABLE FOR ACCUMULATING SNOW IN OUR AREA
TUESDAY NIGHT. THE 26.12 GGEM APPEARS TO BE SOMEWHAT OF A
COMPROMISE SOLUTION...BUT PERHAPS BEARS A STRONGER RESEMBLANCE TO
THE GFS IN KEEPING THE HEAVIEST PRECIPITATION OUT OF OUR AREA.
THIS IS ALL TO SAY THAT CONFIDENCE IN SNOWFALL TIMING AND AMOUNTS
DURING THIS PERIOD ARE LOWER THAN NORMAL GIVEN THE CONSIDERABLE
SPREAD IN FORECAST MODEL GUIDANCE. BEYOND WEDNESDAY...LOOK FOR
COLDER TEMPERATURES WITH SOME LIGHT SNOW POSSIBLE ON THURSDAY AS
LOW PRESSURE PASSES BY TO OUR SOUTH.

AVIATION/00Z TAFS/...

VFR CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGHOUT THE TAF PERIOD. ONCE
THE 3-4KTF DECK CLEARS THE AREA...SKIES SHOULD REMAIN MOSTLY CLOUD
FREE THROUGH SATURDAY. ONE CONCERN IS THAT SOME OF THE BLENDED
GUIDANCE IS PAINTING A CHANCE OF LLWS TOMORROW MORNING...BUT MODEL
SOUNDINGS ONLY SHOW A WIND SPEED DIFFERENCE AROUND 25 KTS AT BEST.
WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR...BUT DO NOT EXPECT LLWS TO MAKE IT INTO
ANY OF THE TAFS. ANOTHER CONCERN IS THE GUSTY SW WINDS THAT ARE
EXPECTED TOMORROW. GUIDANCE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT WE WILL SEE GUSTS
UP TO 20 KTS TOMORROW...AND UP TO 25 KTS NEAR THE LAKE.

MARINE...

WINDS WILL GET CLOSE TO SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA AND THERE MAY BE A
FEW GUSTS TOMORROW MORNING EXCEEDING 22 KTS. HOWEVER...OVERALL IT
LOOKS LIKE WINDS WILL STAY JUST BELOW CRITERIA AND WAVES WILL BE
WELL BELOW 4 FEET...SO WILL NOT BE ISSUING SCA AT THIS TIME. A
TROF OF LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE THOUGH ON SUNDAY...WHEN A SCA MAY
BE NEEDED TO ACCOUNT FOR THE GUSTY WINDS.

CLIMATE...
