What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this gale warning 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 gale warning went out at Jan 21, 3:03 PM CST, 23 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 21, 3:03 PM CST, 23 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Green Bay WI 303 PM CST Sun Jan 21 2018 Forecast discussion for routine afternoon forecast issuance .SHORT TERM...Tonight and Monday Issued at 303 PM CST Sun Jan 21 2018 Another mild across the area with temperatures in the middle 30s to middle 40s. Several issues to deal with for this afternoon into early tonight. Dense fog formed this morning from near Oshkosh to Manitowoc. The fog has not lifted and will probably not lift until later tonight. A dense fog advisory was issued for Winnebago, Calumet and Manitowoc counties until 6 am. Also, dense marine fog has spread northward across the area as far north as Northport/Deaths Door. Issued a dense marine fog advisory until 6 am Monday for this region. The impending winter storm is expected to bring light precipitation to the area later tonight, then the heaviest precipitation is expected to fall Monday into Monday night. Bufkit soundings at Green Bay stradling the line between rain and heavy snow. To complicate matters, road temperatures will drop to or a few degrees above freezing tonight. Current thinking is clouds and easterly flow will keep air temperatures several degrees above freezing, thus expecting rain/snow mix across the Fox Cities east to the lakeshore. For locations just north and west of the Valley, some freezing rain and snow is expected as air and road temperatues will hover around the freezing mark. Any slight shift in the 850mb thermal gradient could make a significant difference in snow and ice amounts along with precipitation types. The main storm system will move across southern Wisconsin Monday afternoon. Models are in fairly good agreement with amount of warm air working into the region. However, any deviation to the south would have significant impacts on the snow totals from Wisconsin Rapids into the Fox Valley and lakeshore region. Have posted winter storm warnings from Marathon county into Marinette county north to the Michigan border. Snow totals in this region should range from 6 to 11 inches with minor ice accumulations of a tenth or two. Winter weather advisories have been posted just south of the warning area for 3 to 6 inches of snow along with ice accumulations of a tenth or two. Presuming that the mild stretch of mild air along with temperatures a few degrees above freezing should keep the precipitation from freezing across the Fox Valley and lakeshore region based on the road temperature forecast. It will be close! Gusty northeast/north winds expected on Monday. .LONG TERM...Monday Night Through Sunday Issued at 303 PM CST Sun Jan 21 2018 Focus will be on the winter storm Monday night, including precipitation type, snow and ice accumulations, and headlines. Models are in good agreement with a low pressure system moving from the WI/IL border region to Lake Huron Monday night. Moderate to heavy snow is expected to be ongoing across north central and far northeast WI during the evening, as the deformation zone and RRQ of an upper level jet pull through. A crosshairs signature (core of strongest lift coincident with dendritic growth zone) is evident in this area early in the evening, so inch an hour snowfall rates are possible. Additional accumulations of 3 to 5 inches are expected over the far north. A mid-level dry slot over central and east central WI should eventually lift far enough north to temporarily change snow over to light freezing rain or freezing drizzle. A secondary band of precipitation associated with the passing upper low and H8 circulation may get close to east central WI late, but models keep the main impacts to our south. Although light snow and ice accumulations will still be possible overnight, we will keep the end time of the winter weather headlines at midnight. Northeast to north winds will be quite strong Monday night, especially in east WI. A gale warning is in effect for the Bay and northern Lake Michigan through early evening. High pressure and quiet weather is expected for the mid to late part of the work week, with a nice warmup anticipated on Friday. A cold front will bring a chance of rain or snow showers Friday night into Saturday. && .AVIATION...for 18Z TAF Issuance Issued at 1054 AM CST Sun Jan 21 2018 Low clouds and fog continue across portions of the southern Fox Valley early this afternoon.
