Area Forecast Discussion

305 PM CDT Mon Sep 17 2018

Forecast discussion for routine afternoon forecast issuance

.SHORT TERM...Tonight and Tuesday
Issued at 304 PM CDT Mon Sep 17 2018

Another very warm day across much of the region with temperatures
in the 80s to lower 90s. Cooler air was now working into northern
Vilas County where temperatures were in the lower to middle 80s.

For tonight, the cold front will continue to sag southward with
gusty north/northeast winds just behind it as well as low clouds
which lag several hours behind the front. Main concern for tonight
will be the chances of thunderstorms. First cluster of storms
was across eastern Minnesota and was now moving into far western
Wisconsin. Latest HRRR model indicated this cluster would work
into western Wisconsin and then dissipate by the time it got
to Wausau. Latest mesoanalysis indicated mixed layer capes 500
to 1000 J/KG across central Wisconsin. Would expect cluster of
storms to move a little further east than the HRRR was suggesting
before dissipating. Behind the first cluster of storms, more
showers and storms are expected to develop west of the area
and the move into the region late this evening, if not overnight
and continue into Tuesday morning. There is expected to be a break
in the rain later tomorrow morning into tomorrow afternoon before
more rain returns Tuesday night. High temperatures on Tuesday
should be some 15 to 20 degrees cooler than today.

.LONG TERM...Tuesday Night Through Monday
Issued at 304 PM CDT Mon Sep 17 2018

Transition to cooler and more unsettled weather expected through
much of the upcoming work week as a front meanders through the CWA.
The greatest potential for heavier rainfall and stronger storms will
be Wednesday into Wednesday night and especially on Thursday.

Tuesday night through Thursday night: Zonal flow and the outer edges
of a weak surface ridge will remain in place through Tuesday
evening; however, a warm front is expected to lift north as it
initially stretches from around the NE/SD border eastward to
southern WI/northern IL. This will be ahead of a low pressure system
that is expected to eject/deepen across Colorado. Ahead of the low
and along the warm front, moisture and warm air advection will
increase from the south late Tuesday night.

The warm front is expected to lift through the CWA late Wednesday
afternoon into Wednesday night. This will be the main focus for
precipitation through Thursday afternoon. Indications are that a LLJ
will develop ahead of the deepening low. This would help to increase
moisture flow and forcing over the warm front, which would lead to
the potential for heavier rainfall. Current thinking is that a
widespread 1 to 2 inches of rainfall across much of CWA Wednesday
night through Thursday night. PWAT values are progged to be around 1
- 2 inches for this time period, which is around 150% to 200% of
normal for this time of year. The low pressure center is progged to
slide over north-central WI Thursday afternoon into Thursday evening
based on the GEM/GFS/EC; however, the NAM is farther southeast with
the low track. If the northwestern solutions pan out, this would
lead to the potential for some strong to severe thunderstorms late
Thursday afternoon into Thursday evening. The northwest third of the
CWA would likely remain on the cooler side of the low with any of
the solutions, helping to lower the severe potential, while the rest
of the CWA may be in the warmer/more moist (dewpoints possibly in
the low 70s) sector to the southeast of the low and ahead of the
cold front. Instability may increase, possibly up to 1000-2000 J/kg
ahead of the front along with deep-layer shear values in the 45 to
55 kt range. Shear vectors also look to be perpendicular to the cold
front favoring a more organized severe event. Again, this is a
possibility, but there is still some disagreement among the models
at this point in overall cloud cover and the exact track of the low.
In fact, if the NAM solution verifies, then it would keep most of
the CWA on the cooler side of the low, still rainy, but a lower risk
of severe storms. Will definitely be a system to watch Thursday
afternoon into Thursday evening. At this point decided to highlight
in the potential in the HWO.

Rest of the extended: Friday morning, the cold front will be to the
east and southeast of the area as dry high pressure builds in,
allowing for more tranquil and cooler conditions. This will be the
case into the upcoming weekend as zonal flow remains in place and
only minor disturbances push through the area. Consensus worked well
for this time period.

.AVIATION...for 18Z TAF Issuance
Issued at 1157 AM CDT Mon Sep 17 2018

A cold front will move across the region this afternoon
and then slowly south of the area later tonight. This
front is expected to bring a chance of showers or thunderstorms
to central and northeast Wisconsin later this afternoon into
this evening. Additional shower activity is also expected later
this evening into Tuesday morning. Behind the cold front, gusty
northerly winds are expected near the Bay of Green Bay and Lake
Michigan along with low clouds. MVFR CIGS are expected to drop
southward across the area later tonight into Tuesday morning.
IFR CIGS are possible across the far north, including at KRHI.
A slow improvement in CIGS are expected Tuesday afternoon.

...SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY THIS EVENING...

A cold front will sag south across the area this evening. At 533 PM
CDT, radar detected a cluster of strong thunderstorms near Black
River Falls, moving east at 35 mph. Those storms will move east into
the area during the next hour or so.  Additional showers and storms
are also likely to develop ahead of the cluster.

Winds of 40 to 45 mph, pea-sized hail, and heavy rainfall are likely
with the strongest storms.

Locations impacted include...
Stevens Point, Wisconsin Rapids, Wautoma, Marshfield, Whiting,
Amherst, Pittsville, Plainfield, Babcock and Lake Wazeecha.

Anyone engaged in outdoor activities this evening should be prepared
to quickly move to a place of safety when the storms approach your
area. If you can hear thunder, you are close enough to be struck by
lightning.

The rainfall may be heavy enough to cause some ponding of water on
area roadways. Do not drive your vehicle into standing water.
