PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A Gale Watch is issued when the risk of gale force winds of 34 to
47 knots has significantly increased...but the specific timing
and/or location is still uncertain. It is intended to provide
additional lead time for mariners who may wish to consider
altering their plans.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
1105 AM CST Thu Nov 22 2018

.UPDATE...

There's a lot of low stratus across the area late this morning. It
is clearing southwest of Madison, down toward Dodgeville. But,
with persistent warm air advection above it strengthening the low
level inversion, there's concern it will halt at some point,
keeping it cloudy over about the northeast 2/3 of the forecast
area into the early evening. Confidence is rather low on the
cloud trends. There are some light radar returns up toward
Sheboygan where the moisture is deepest and we could see some
light freezing drizzle for a time. This should push off to the
northeast this afternoon. Other than the clouds, we should be
quiet across the area tonight into Friday morning. The long
advertised warmup and axis of rain pushes in for Friday afternoon.
The rain will then continue into Friday night. No meaningful
changes needed to the short range forecast at this time.

&&

.AVIATION(18Z TAFS)...

The MVFR stratus covering much of the Upper Midwest is trying to
clear out southwest of Madison, down toward Dodgeville. But, there
are indications this clearing will not simply extrapolate
steadily northeast. The low level inversion is rather strong and
it will likely bring a halt to the clearing at some point. Current
thinking is the clearing won't make it to Madison or Kenosha
until about mid evening. Eventually, strengthening southerly winds
will blow it north overnight. VFR conditions are then expected
from late evening through much of the day on Friday. Those strong
southerly winds will bring some low level wind shear later tonight
into early Friday morning. Rain begins to spread into the area
later Friday afternoon through Friday night.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 857 AM CST Thu Nov 22 2018)

UPDATE...

Don't see much need for any changes in the short term. Meso
analysis shows impressive warm air advection into the area now
into the afternoon, with the better deep saturation occurring up
toward Sheboygan. So, our small chances of light mixed precip,
including some freezing precip threat, looks good across our
northeast CWA. This moves off by evening with the night looking
rather quiet. The rain pushes in during the afternoon on Friday,
so temps should have enough time to respond and warm up, limiting
any threat for wintry concerns.

MARINE...

Not much change from the early morning discussion. A windy
pattern sets up today with high wave action expected, especially
across the north half of Lake Michigan. This is due to a tight
pressure gradient setting up between a retreating high pressure
system and approaching trough from the Plains. Gusty southeast
winds will bring small craft conditions for the nearshore areas
today while low level southerly speed max will result in gale
force winds evolving Friday through Friday night. For now Gale
Watch has been maintained with an eventual upgrade to a warning
possible. We'll assess that with the afternoon issuance.

PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 501 AM CST Thu Nov 22 2018)

UPDATE...Going forecast in good shape. Cloud cover has filled in
across extreme NE IA into SW WI merging with existing cloud deck,
so cloud cover to be widespread today. Drizzle potential looks
spotty at best.

PC

AVIATION(12Z TAFS)...Widespread MVFR cigs across srn WI. Expect
this to hang around for much of the day with southeast winds
trending south. Surface high to the east and approaching trough
means tightening pressure gradient an an uptick in the winds.
Perhaps some spotty drizzle today but not confident in coverage
nor occurrence for any sort of inclusion in TAF's. Cloud cover
likely to shift north of the area overnight with a steady south
wind continuing. Rainfall holds off until later Friday with
highest chances arriving Friday night.

PC

PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 250 AM CST THU NOV 22 2018)

SHORT TERM...

Today - Confidence...Medium.

Mid level ridge axis shifts to the Mississippi River Valley.
Meanwhile surface high will shift further east and be across the
eastern Lakes region by days end. Low level waa regime will be in
place. Impressive 850 millibar thermal packing with strong waa
signal. Much of this lift will be above better moisture signal on
Bufkit. However, will retain small chance of light drizzle or
freezing drizzle in the northeast cwa but confidence is quite low on
this. Low level RH progs showing cloud cover across eastern Iowa
early this morning with additional development having increased
there since 08z or so. Southeast winds will be on the increase as
pressure gradient starts to tighten up.

Tonight - Confidence...Medium Mid level ridge axis shifts to the
east, meanwhile 925 thermal advection ramps up. low level rh
progs/mos suggest cloud deck will get advected north of the cwa with
time. Expecting non-diurnal temp trend as south winds are sustained
with push of milder airmass in the low levels.

FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...Forecast Confidence - Medium to
High.

Strong low level southerly winds will be ongoing at the start of the
period, which will continue to pump higher moisture and warmer air
into the area.  925H temps rise to 3 to 6C on Friday, before light
rain and showers spread into the area during the afternoon and
evening. Short term guidance remain in good agreement on timing and
strength of sharpening mid-level trof tracking east across the upper
midwest on Friday and Saturday.  Upper trof takes on a negative tilt
as it moves through the western Great Lakes Friday night and
Saturday, hence light rain should linger into Saturday morning.
Atmosphere cools as precip begins Friday evening most areas, but wet
bulb temperature in the low levels remain around +3 degrees, so
liquid precipitation expected.  However can not rule out a few snow
pellets mixing in with the rain, especially in the northern areas.
Pavement temperature will have warmed into the 40s before precip
onset on Friday.  Two meter temps should cool into the mid to upper
30s Friday with precip onset.  Also sub-surface temps remain at or
just above freezing through an 8" depth so no freezing liquid issues
expected at this time Friday night.

Lingering rain should taper off during the day Saturday.  Light snow
chances will increase Saturday night ahead of next system
strengthening in the central Plains.

LONG TERM...

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

Medium range consensus continues to increase and confidence
continues to grow for potential significant winter weather event to
affect southern WI Sunday into Sunday night.  Both GFS and GEM are
showing phasing of southern stream amplifying short wave trof with
Canadian low pressure north of Lake Superior.  ECMWF not showing as
much phasing but now slower as southern stream short wave continues
to amplify as it passes just south of WI during this period.
Guidance is also trending colder with more of a snow threat over
more of southern WI Sunday into Sunday night.  Latest 36 hour QPF
from 12Z Sun to 00Z Tue from Medium Range Guidance is showing
amounts anywhere from one quarter inch in the northwest CWA to over
an inch in the southeast. EMC GEFS QPF plume ranges anywhere from a
couple hundredths to just under 2", with the mean around 0.8".  WPC
not bullish on QPF for Sunday and Sunday night at this point due to
uncertainty.  Meanwhile, Model Certainty QPF based on available
computer guidance shows a 50% range from 4 tenths in the northwest
to 9 tenths in the southeast. All Medium range guidance showing
deepening surface low pressure moving from central or southern IL
toward lower Michigan later Sunday and Sunday night. This would also
result in a tightening pressure gradient and gusty north to
northeast winds with potential of strong wind gusts exacerbating
winter situation, in addition to potential lake enhancement. At this
point, heaviest QPF and snowfall would be in east central into
southeast WI. Snow liquid ratios should be higher at the onset
around 8 to 1, cooling to around climatological normal (13 to 1)
toward end of event.  Needless to say, this system may have
significant impacts on end of holiday travel conditions, with
impacts continuing into the Monday morning commute.  Will heighten
awareness in HWO and SPS. All interests planning travel will need to
keep a close eye on the situation for Sunday and Sunday night.

After winds and potential blowing snow wind down on Monday, looks
cold and quiet for Tuesday into Wednesday.  A clipper-type system
may return light snow to the area later Wednesday into Thursday.
Temps to remain below normal.

AVIATION(09Z TAFS)...Surface high pressure across lower
Michigan will shift further east into the eastern Lakes region
today. Low level warm air advection will be prevalent through
tonight. A mostly VFR cloud deck may lower as some moistening is
proggd in the soundings. Seeing development there since about 08z
which has lowered to MVFR levels. A small chance of freezing drizzle
or drizzle exists in the northeast cwa today but confidence in
coverage and occurrence is on the low side. Whatever cloud deck
remains this evening is expected to shift north of srn WI as low
level baroclinic zone lifts further north with strengthening
southerly wind flow ahead of the next weather/rain maker for later
Friday into Friday night.

MARINE...A windy pattern set up with high wave action expected.
Tight pressure gradient sets up between a retreating high pressure
system and approaching trough from the Plains. Southeast winds will
lead to small craft conditions for the nearshore areas beginning
today while low level southerly speed max will result in gale force
winds evolving Friday through Friday night. For now Gale Watch has
been maintained with an eventual upgrade to a warning looking likely.
