Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service La Crosse WI
1208 PM CDT Tue Aug 28 2018

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
Issued at 349 AM CDT Tue Aug 28 2018

At 3 AM, life-threatening flooding was taking place in southern
La Crosse, southern Monroe, and Vernon counties. County Emergency
Management reported that evacuations were taking place in these
areas. Numerous roads have been washed out. This is a particularly
dangerous situation along Coon Creek. In addition, record
flooding is expected along the Kickapoo River at Ontario. Radar
estimates of 5 to locally 12 inches of rain has fallen since 8 PM
Monday night. During the next 2 to 3 hours, the low-level jet
will gradually veer away from our area. As this occurs, the
showers and storms will move east out of these counties. Prior to
this occurring, these areas may see up to another 2 inches of
rain. Due to this, will keep the Flash Flood Watch going through
7 AM this morning.

The 28.00z models are in good agreement that a shortwave trough
will move through the area this evening. As it approaches the area,
another round of showers and storms will develop across the area
this afternoon and then continue into tonight. 0-1 km mixed layer
CAPES will climb into the 2500 to 3500 J/kg range by late morning
across parts of northeast Iowa and in southwest and central
Wisconsin. In addition, the 0-3 km shear will climb into the 40 to
50 knot range. Due to this, expect a damaging wind threat in these
areas. Maybe some isolated tornadoes along some of the bowing
segments.  To the north of this area, there will be enough shear
and elevated instability for the potential of some large hail.
With precipitable water values around 2 inches, there is a concern
of additional heavy rain across southwest and central Wisconsin
and northeast Iowa. There may be a need for another Flash Flood
Watch.

.LONG TERM...(Wednesday through Labor Day)
Issued at 349 AM CDT Tue Aug 28 2018

From Wednesday through Thursday, short wave ridging will provide
some much needed dry weather for the area. With 850 mb
temperatures around 9C on Wednesday, high temperatures will be
mainly in the 60s. Warm air advection will develop across the
region on Thursday. As this occurs, 850 mb temperatures will climb
into the 9 to 15C range. This will result in the high temperatures
climbing into the lower and mid 70s.

From Thursday night through Saturday, a longwave trough will move
through the region. This system will provide another round of
showers and storms. Mixed layer CAPES will climb into 1500 to
3000 J/kg. With 0-3 km shear of 30 to 40 knots, may have some
bowing segments with some of these storms from time to time.

From Sunday night into Monday, return flow on the backside of a
departing high may bring some showers and storms back into the
area for the Labor Day. High temperatures will range from the mid
70s to lower 80s.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday afternoon)
Issued at 1208 PM CDT Tue Aug 28 2018

Periods SHRA/TSRA to move across the taf sites this afternoon, which
is difficult to put in a taf without it becoming lengthy/complex.
Carried VCTS prevailing with tempo MVFR vsbys MVFR/IFR cigs in TSRA
thru much of the afternoon. Short periods may go LIFR if heavier
TSRA cores pass across the airfields. Forcing/lift wane later this
afternoon/evening as a sfc trough/frontal boundary finally sags SE
of the area. Mainly -SHRA and MVFR cigs to continue into the
evening. MVFR cigs looking to remain across the area overnight, but
eventually drying NW sfc-850mb flow wins out, with rising cigs/
decreasing clouds for Wed morning. Good VFR expected by late morning
and for Wed afternoon as cooler/drier high pressure settles over the
Upper Midwest.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...Through Tonight
Issued at 653 AM CDT Tue Aug 28 2018

Flooding will continue this morning across portions of southwest
and central Wisconsin where 5 to 8 inches of rain fell. Radar
estimates nearly 12 inches of rain fell over portions of La
Crosse, Monroe, and Vernon Counties. Thunderstorms may produce
additional heavy rainfall of 1 to 3 inches today into this
evening over areas already experiencing flooding issues. The Flash
Flood Watch has been extended through 7 AM Wednesday.
