937 PM CDT Thu Jul 6 2017

.UPDATE...

Scattered thunderstorms producing large hail were occuring over
central Wisconsin with more thunderstorms along a cold front
farther north. Meso models have continued to back off on the
thunderstorms, but are not really handling the current storms.
Still expected isolated storms into southern Wisconsin this
evening with the better chance chances when the cold front
arrives.

&&

.MARINE...

Southwesterly winds tonight. Southwest winds will veer to nwly by
sunrise on Fri with the winds shifting to the northeast for the
afternoon. The magnitude of the winds and waves will remain just
below Small Craft criteria. Still a chance of thunderstorms
tonight.

.PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 725 PM CDT Thu Jul 6 2017)

UPDATE...

Scattered thunderstorms were occuring over central Wisconsin with
more thunderstorms along a cold front farther north. meso models
have backed off on the thunderstorms, but these were initialized
just before the current storms developed. Still expected more
isolated storms, especially north of Madison this evening with
the better chance across the south when the cold front arrives.

AVIATION(00Z TAFS)...

Scattered thunderstorms were occuring over central Wisconsin with
more thunderstorms along a cold front farther north. meso models
have backed off on the thunderstorms, but these were initialized
just before the current storms developed. Still expected more
isolated storms, especially north of Madison this evening with
the better chance across the south when the cold front arrives.

Mainly VFR except ifr in thunderstorms.

Scattered showers and storms are expected Friday afternoon into the
early evening. A few storms could be strong with gusty winds and
small hail.

PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 340 PM CDT THU JUL 6 2017)

TONIGHT - Forecast Confidence...Medium.

Southern WI is un-capped with up to 4000 j/kg of surface-based CAPE.
We are lacking any forcing to get thunderstorms to develop.
The bulk shear is increasing so any thunderstorms that can get going
should be strong.

The area to watch is central WI. This is where there is a decent
thermal boundary and a potential weak shortwave (water vapor
imagery). Look for this feature to slide southeast and potentially
trigger some strong storms late this afternoon into the early
evening. Several models key into this feature to produce storms when
it gets to southeast WI in the Milwaukee Metro area around 6 or 7
pm. Large hail and damaging wind (and a possible tornado) are what
we would expect.

One more area to watch is northeast MN. There is a large, uncapped
area with strong instability and moderate shear that is just ahead
of a surface cold front. Storms are now developing and these will
likely expand southeast and sweep through portions of southern WI
late this evening, like 11 pm to 2 am. Storms would likely be in a
line and elevated by the time they would reach us tonight, so
damaging winds would be the main threat, but large hail is still a
possibility depending upon storm mode.

Check the radar frequently and keep up with the latest forecasts and
discussions.

Friday... Forecast confidence is Medium.

Scattered showers and storms are expected Friday afternoon into the
early evening. These will develop along the leading edge of a potent
mid level shortwave trough that will slide through central WI late
Fri afternoon. Peak daytime heating, lingering low level moisture
will allow for around 1000 j/kg CAPE and moderate deep layer shear.
A few storms could be strong with gusty winds and small hail. SPC
added portions of WI into a Marginal risk due to our potential for a
few 1 inch hail reports and near-severe wind gusts.

FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY - Forecast Confidence...Medium.

A few storms may linger into Friday evening over eastern CWA as
vigorous mid-level short wave slides southeast across Lake Michigan
into Lower Michigan.  Otherwise a brief period of quiet weather is
expected later Friday night through Saturday.  Return flow and
moisture begins as upper level ridging slides off to the southeast.
However, short term guidance in agreement on low level jet and
moisture convergence remaining mostly southwest of southern WI
across IA into northern IL.  Wl keep most of CWA dry but keep a
small chance in the far southwest around Darlington as low level jet
and weakly elevated instability may graze this area.  Slightly
deeper moisture in place on Sunday as possible convective eddy from
upstream overnight convection passes through. GFS also indicating
potential enhanced upper level divergence from right entrance region
of upper jet passing to the north of the area.  So wl have low
chance pops in for Sunday.

Friday... Forecast confidence is Medium.

Scattered showers and storms are expected Friday afternoon into the
early evening. These will develop along the leading edge of a potent
mid level shortwave trough that will slide through central WI late
Fri afternoon. Peak daytime heating, lingering low level moisture
will allow for around 1000 j/kg CAPE and moderate deep layer shear.
A few storms could be strong with gusty winds and small hail. SPC
added portions of WI into a Marginal risk due to our potential for a
few 1 inch hail reports and near-severe wind gusts.

EXTENDED PERIOD...

SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY - Forecast Confidence...Medium.

Will continue to carry chance wording for thunderstorms across
southern WI Sunday night into Monday night as cold front caught in
WNW steering winds shifts south through the area.  Low level forcing
from front will be enhanced by passing mid-level short waves caught
in upper level steering flow.  Column moisture will not be a problem
as precipitable water values are expected to return to around 1.5
inches by this time. However some uncertainty regardings differences
in timing of passing mid-level short waves.  At this point, best
chance for more widespread thunder looks to be Monday.

Quiet weather will return across most of southern WI as high
pressure passes across the western Great Lakes in the Tue/Wed time
frame. Significant differences in timing of next synoptic forcing
event to affect the area in the Wed night/Thu period.  ECMWF had
been showing more amplified short wave moving through, but has now
backed off on amplitude.  Unstable atmosphere and northwest steering
winds will continue to bring periods of unsettled weather for the
later part of next week.

AVIATION (21Z TAFS)...

We are expecting thunderstorms in southern WI this afternoon and
evening. Timing is very uncertain. Earlier storms will be isolated.
More widespread storms are expected either early this evening or
late this evening, depending on their evolution across northern
Wisconsin.

Scattered showers and storms are expected Friday afternoon into the
early evening. A few storms could be strong with gusty winds and
small hail.

MARINE...

Southwesterly winds will quickly become established by early
evening. Swly winds will veer to nwly by sunrise on Fri with the
winds shifting to the northeast for the afternoon. The magnitude of
the winds and waves will remain fairly weak.
