What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this high wind watch went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Green Bay, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this high wind watch went out at Oct 23, 3:34 AM CDT, 18 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Oct 23, 3:34 AM CDT, 18 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Green Bay WI 334 AM CDT Mon Oct 23 2017 Forecast discussion for routine morning forecast issuance .SHORT TERM...Today...Tonight...and Tuesday Issued at 333 AM CDT Mon Oct 23 2017 Discussion for this portion of the forecast will follow a little later. Coding for forthcoming headline changes is below. NPW will be out ASAP. .LONG TERM...Tuesday Night Through Sunday Issued at 333 AM CDT Mon Oct 23 2017 Models have come into better agreement with a strong fall storm moving away from the region Tuesday night. Core of strongest winds aloft still noted across northeast Wisconsin at 7 pm Tuesday. Thus, the strong winds will continue into early Tuesday evening especially across Door County where winds could still gust close to 60 mph. The winds should gradually diminish later in the evening into early Wednesday morning, although gusts to around 35 mph are still possible across northern Door County. Across the north Tuesday night, some light snow is expected at times with a light dusting of snow possible across Vilas County. On Wednesday, winds will continue to subside as high pressure builds into the region. High temperatures will be below normal for late October, something that we haven't seen since the first half of September. The next system approaches from the northwest Thursday afternoon and moves across the area Thursday night. Most of the precipitation should fall as rain, though could end as a little snow across the north. Upper low on the ECMWF swings across the area on Friday, bringing continued chances of showers.
