Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service La Crosse WI
600 PM CDT Thu Jun 22 2017

.SHORT TERM...(Tonight through Friday Night)
Issued at 153 PM CDT Thu Jun 22 2017

Surface analysis shows a cold front extending from east central to
far southwest WI and then into northeast IA. Meanwhile, water vapor
imagery showing a weak mid-level trough dropping southeast through
MN. Lift and frontogenesis ahead of this trough was producing
widespread showers and thunderstorms across the south half of MN and
much of WI. Cloud cover and precipitation keeping temperatures in
check with readings at 1 PM ranging from the middle 60s to the
middle 70s.

The mid-level trough and associated frontogenesis will continue to
slip slowly southeast through the area this evening, fueling
shower/thunderstorm activity. Highest severe threat at this point
through this evening looks to be tied closer to the surface cold
front/higher CAPE pool across far southwest WI into northeast IA.
Large hail and damaging winds would be the main threats. Another
concern will be threat for some heavier rainfall and potential for
localized ponding of water where convection trains. However, the
trough/frontogenesis will be fairly progressive, exiting southeast
of the area soon after midnight. For this reason, will hold off on
Flash Flood headlines for now.

Drier/cooler air filters in to the region Friday on breezy northwest
winds. There will be a slight chance for showers across northern WI
in cooler cyclonic flow aloft. The rest of the area should just see
a build up in cumulus given steep lower level lapse rates.
Otherwise, plan on highs only in the upper 60s to the middle 70s or
some 10 degrees below seasonal norms. Partly cloudy/fairly chill
conditions for Friday night with lows in the upper 40s to the lower
50s.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday)
Issued at 153 PM CDT Thu Jun 22 2017

Cool conditions to last through the weekend into Monday as long wave
troughing takes hold across the region. Several embedded shortwave
trough drop into the region in northwest flow aloft for periodic
shower/isolated storms. A couple rather vigorous troughs dropping
through Saturday and Sunday afternoon/early evening will bear some
watching. NAM Bufkit shows an Inverted-V type environment with 600-
1200J/kg 0-3km MUCAPE and lower Wetbulb Zero heights. This could
produce a few stronger storms with hail and gusty winds. Otherwise,
plan on highs Saturday through Monday mainly in the 60s with
overnight lows in the mid 40s to near 50.

Tuesday through Thursday will see a slow warm-up as mid-level
heights build. Tuesday looks dry but then shower/thunder chances
return Tuesday night through Thursday as latest GFS/ECMWF bring a
cold front through the Northern Plains into the Upper Mississippi
River Valley.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday evening)
Issued at 600 PM CDT Thu Jun 22 2017

Cigs: expecting mostly vfr cigs through mid/late evening as
scattered/broken line of convection sinks southeast across the area.
Could drop into mvfr for a short period. Skies should scatter
before 06z, and mostly hold sct until Fri afternoon. With hefty low
level lapse rates and good low level cold air advection, should see
some afternoon cu development...sct/bkn. Can't rule out some mvfr
cigs, but will keep vfr for now.

WX/vsby: sloping south-north frontogenetic region associated with a
passing cold front, along with some help aloft from a shortwave,
will continue to fire some shra/ts into the mid evening hours. Heavy
rain will accompany any storm, with reductions to around 2sm at
times. Could see a few isolated showers later Friday afternoon,
although models generally just suggesting some aggravated cu.

Winds: north northwest through Friday, with gusts kicking in thanks
to mixing by late morning.

...Scattered Storms This Evening...

Storms will continue to develop this evening, all capable of
producing very heavy downpours - which could result in localized
street flooding. In addition, the strongest storms could yield
small hail up to 1/2 inch.

If you have evening plans, be prepared to find indoor shelter when
storms approach. Also, never cross flooded roadways.
