Area forecast discussion, Sep 3, 3:14 AM CDT, 2 hours 9 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service La Crosse WI 314 AM CDT Mon Sep 3 2018 ..SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 314 AM CDT Mon Sep 3 2018 Main short-term fcst concerns are fog this morning then SHRA/TSRA chances and heavy rain threat this afternoon and tonight. Data analysis at 06z had a rather weak frontal boundary from NE WI to western IA. Pressure gradients on either side of the boundary were quite weak, with light winds at the sfc and aloft to near 700mb. Very moist BL either side of the front across WI, IA, southern MN. All this a very favorable set up for BR/FG formation early this morning, even under some cirrus debris clouds from convection in SW IA to eastern KS. 03.00z models initialized without major errors. Initializations could have been 'cleaner' with the pieces of shortwave energy rotating thru the weaker troughing flow over the southwest CONUS. Models in reasonable agreement today/tonight as the next stronger wave in the flow lifts NE across the Upper Midwest today/tonight. However, detail differences with the shortwaves continue to impact SHRA/TSRA timing/chances into mid-week. Short-term fcst confidence is average to good this cycle. Abundant BL moisture to remain trapped in/under an shallow inversion this morning, with rather light winds in the sfc-700mb layer and cirrus clouds aloft. Fog is looking to persist at some locations through mid morning, before slowly lifting/dissipating with eventual diurnal warming later in the morning. The rest of the short-term fcst continues to hinge on timing/ strength of shortwave energy thru the broad SW flow over the region. Each wave to bring with it a round of increased lower level thermo- dynamic forcing and moisture transport of a 1.75 to 2 inch PW airmass into/across the area. Loose model consensus for the next of these waves in the train to lift into/across the area this afternoon/evening with its round of deeper layered forcing and moisture transport. Detail differences with timing/placement of convection across the area but overall consensus is for a round of SHRA/TSRA to lift north across the area this afternoon/evening. Precip chances increasing to 60-70% along/south of I-90 by later this afternoon spreading northward tonight looking well trended. Deep layered shear is on the weak side thru this evening, with main threat from TSRA more heavy rains. Given the very moist airmass (PWs of 2+ std deviations above normal per NAEFS) and warm cloud depths around 4K meters, TSRA will continue to be efficient rain makers. Local rain amounts of an inch or more are possible from stronger TSRA this afternoon/tonight. Even with TSRA looking to be progressive today/tonight, attention will have to stay focused on the rainfall and potential for runoff as much of the landscape has been saturated by recent rains. Blend of guidance highs in the 70s today, held down by plenty of clouds and SHRA/TSRA spreading north this afternoon, look good. .LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday) Issued at 314 AM CDT Mon Sep 3 2018 For Tuesday thru Wednesday night: main concerns this period are heavy rain/flooding threat later Tuesday into Wed morning. Model runs of 03.00z in reasonable agreement for portion of the western CONUS troughing to move into the plains Tue, with this trough and stronger pieces of shortwave energy lifting NE across the region Tue night into Wed morning. Quieter westerly flow to build across the region behind the trough later Wed/Wed night. Fcst confidence this period is average to good with the larger scale picture but average with the details. Convection from later tonight lifts north of the fcst area with the shortwave Tue morning for a lull in rain chances. Little change of the airmass through Tue/Tue night though, with PW values progged in the 1.75 to 2.25 inch range and warm cloud depths of 4K+ meters. Lower level thermo-dynamic forcing and divergence aloft increase again Tue afternoon/night with approach of the next shortwave energy and trough axis. Lower level trough/front accompanies the mid level features into/across the area from later Tue afternoon into Wed morning. Strong F-gen forcing signal with the lower level trough axis for linear forcing along the front/trough axis. Lower thru mid level flow progged to be parallel to the forcing, with strong signal for training/repeating SHRA/TSRA and a band of heavy/excessive rains centered on Tue night. Models progging potential of 2 to 5 inches in the band but Model differences impacting the location of the band. Consensus has it impacting north-central IA to NE WI, which passes across roughly the NW half of the fcst area. Model consensus may still shift so will keep threat for heavy rains Tue night raised across the entire fcst area. Consensus 70-90% SHRA/TSRA chances translating across the fcst area Tue afternoon thru Wed morning well trended for now. A few strong TSRA possible Tue afternoon/evening but main threat is the heavy rains. See SWODY2 for more info. Once the sfc thru mid level trough axis pass Wed morning, cooler and much drier Can high pressure to slide into the Upper Midwest for Wed afternoon/night for a much needed break from the rains. Any lingering rain chances by Wed night limited to the south end of the fcst area. For Thursday through Sunday (days 4-7: main fcst concerns this period are cooler, more September like temperatures and some SHRA/TSRA chances mainly on Sat. 03.00z medium range model runs in decent agreement for quieter westerly flow over the region Thu as troughing digs into the central plains. Trough to continue digging Fri, then advance east across the mid/upper MS valley Sat. Westerly flow to return Sunday. Day 4-7 fcst confidence is average this cycle. Thu/Fri continue to trend as much needed drier days with below normal temps as the Can high settles over the region. Some small lingering precip chances across the far south end of the fcst area but the overall trend for later in the week is dry. Plenty of lower level detail differences with the passing mid level trough on Sat but some SHRA/TSRA chances across mainly the south half of the fcst area OK for now. Westerly flow Sunday brings with it some warming a return to near normal temps along with a small SHRA/TSRA chance. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Monday night) Issued at 1130 PM CDT Sun Sep 2 2018 Fog starting to develop in some areas at this late evening hour, and suspect that trend will continue overnight, though still come questions about how widespread and/or dense fog can become given some thicker mid/high clouds working overhead at times. Fog now, will maintain the earlier idea of both LSE and RST seeing at least a few hour period of some dense fog later tonight, but if high clouds are thicker, it could end up being more LIFR stratus instead of fog. Any fog/stratus will likely take some time tomorrow morning to "mix out" given weak flow across the area, with a return to VFR conditions currently forecast heading into the afternoon hours, just in time for additional showers and probably a few storms to work back north across the area. No doubt there could be some additional restrictions to ceilings as this activity arrives, but not entirely sure just yet how widespread it will be through 06Z. && .HYDROLOGY... Issued at 314 AM CDT Mon Sep 3 2018 The highest potential for additional heavy rains and possible flash flooding, remains focused on the later Tuesday afternoon and Tuesday night period. The next cold front will be advancing into the area with strong moisture transport focused into the front. An axis of high precipitable waters, at and above 2 inches, will reside ahead of the front. Strong linear forcing signal with the approaching front, with the sfc-mid level flow parallel to the front/forcing. The concern is where will the strongest forcing/lift/training set up to produce a band of heavy/excessive rains. Consensus at this time is from north-central IA to NE WI, cutting across the NW half of the fcst area. However, plenty of variability exists among the 03.00z model solutions, with potential for the axis to still shift. Much of the landscape is saturated from rains of the past week. Any additional heavy rains have the potential to quickly producing runoff and rises/flooding on area rivers and streams. A flash flood watch is likely to be needed for some portion of the area Tue night, but uncertainty remains on the location. Flooding continues along parts of the Kickapoo River and for now, levels continue to go down. High water is also occurring along portions of the Turkey River.
