URGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGE
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
905 PM CST Sun Feb 18 2018

...Freezing Rain Event Monday Afternoon Through Tuesday...

.An extended period of freezing rain may lead to significant
icing for areas north of a line from Lone Rock to Columbus to
Sheboygan. An ice storm warning is now in effect for that area.
Lower amounts of ice, but still hazardous, will occur over
Washington, Dane and Iowa counties...therefore a winter weather
advisory has been issued for those counties.

The icy conditions will occur in waves as repeated rounds of
freezing rain move through the area during this roughly 24 hour
period.

The maximum icing will occur on the north side of a front that is
forecast to set up across south central and southeast Wisconsin
Monday and Tuesday. Any shift in the front will lead to a change
in forecast ice accumulations. Keep up with the latest forecast.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
1134 AM CST Sun Feb 18 2018

.UPDATE...Going forecast for today in good shape. No changes
needed at this time.

PC

&&

.AVIATION(18Z TAFS)...Improving vsbys across sc WI where fog had
been dense earlier. The rest of the area will see VFR conditions
well into this evening. Will be watching fog/stratus trends later
tonight into Monday as moisture increases from the approaching
system. Rain will be overspreading the area on Monday however any
freezing rain potential will be well north of the TAF sites
through 00z.

PC

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 926 AM CST Sun Feb 18 2018)

UPDATE...Still seeing some dense vsbys within the advisory area,
but feel the 10 am end time will work with improvement underway by
then, so no plans for an extension at this time.

PC

MARINE...Going Gale/Small Craft headlines look good. Expecting
winds to ramp up pretty quick here as the surface pressure
gradient tightens.

PC

PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 550 AM CST Sun Feb 18 2018)

UPDATE...Areas of dense fog continues over far southern WI. A
Dense Fog Advisory is in effect there until 10 AM. Otherwise the
forecast looks good with mild temps moving in on breezy sly winds
this afternoon.

AVIATION(12Z TAFS)...

Areas of dense fog mainly west and south of Madison through 10
am. Vsbys of 1/4 mile or less with Cigs of 100 feet or less.
Breezy south winds will then develop by late morning and afternoon
with VFR conditions. Wind gusts to 30 knots are expected.

VFR conditions for this evening but LLWS will develop from a sswly
60 kt LLJ. Low cigs and areas of fog, possibly drizzle or freezing
drizzle, will then overspread S WI from the south well after
midnight and through Mon AM.

PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 436 AM CST Sun Feb 18 2018)

SHORT TERM...

Today and Tonight...Forecast confidence medium.

Issued a Dense Fog Advisory south and west of Madison based on sfc
obs and GOES 16 Fog channel. The sfc ridge will pass quickly this
morning with breezy sly winds developing by late morning. Thus the
fog should dissipate with sly winds bringing persistent warm
advection to the region today and tonight. Some middle to high
clouds at times but still expecting temps to warm to near 40F
today.

A relatively mild night is expected with temps to fall only to 29-
34F. However, the continued warm advection and moisture transport
will bring low stratus, fog, and possibly drizzle or freezing
drizzle to S WI early Mon AM.

LONG TERM...

Monday through Tuesday night... Forecast confidence is Medium.

Synoptic setup: The right entrance region of an upper jet will sit
over WI for an extended period of time. Meanwhile, the nose of
the low level jet will push into southern WI by Monday afternoon,
leading to strong moisture transport into the area and the
potential for some thunder. Strong low level frontogenesis will
also sit over southern WI for a long period of time.

Precip type (South): Areas south of the front will have periods
of rain, heavy at times. There is over a 90% chance for greater
than an inch of rain for areas along and south of I-94, and a 50%
chance of 2" or greater near Elkhorn, Racine and Kenosha.

Precip type (North): North of the front, temperatures will be
below freezing for much of the time while it's raining, so a
significant amount of freezing rain (greater than a quarter inch)
is possible toward central WI. A Winter Storm Watch has been
issued.

Potential impacts: power outages and icy roads/sidewalks are
possible for areas north of a line from Lone Rock to Columbus to
Sheboygan with considerable ice accumulation. Heavy rain in
southeast WI will lead to several rivers rising to minor flood
stage due to runoff and melting snow. Minor street flooding is
possible as well.

Uncertainty: If the front shifts north from what the forecast is
right now, more people will get rain rather than freezing rain. If
it shifts south, The Madison and I-94 corridor will have a better
chance of seeing higher ice accumulations.

Wednesday through Sunday... Forecast confidence is Medium.

The persistent upper level pattern will lead to a couple more
rounds of precip over the Midwest later in the week. There's only
a small chance for snow in Southern WI Wednesday night as the
north side of a system brushes our area. The weekend could bring
more measurable precip, with the freezing line bisecting our area
once again.
i

AVIATION(06Z TAFS)...Areas of dense fog mainly west and south of
Madison through 10 am. Vsbys of 1/4 mile or less with Cigs of 100
feet or less. Breezy south winds will then develop by late morning
and afternoon with VFR conditions. Wind gusts to 30 knots are
expected.

VFR conditions for this evening but LLWS will develop from a sswly
60 kt LLJ. Low cigs and areas of fog, possibly drizzle or freezing
drizzle, will then overspread S WI from the south well after
midnight and through Mon AM.

MARINE...Breezy sly winds and high waves are expected for this
afternoon and evening. Some wind gusts may reach gale force north of
Port Washington where a Gale Warning is in effect. A Small Craft
Advisory will be in effect from Port Washington to Winthrop Harbor
Illinois.

Another Small Craft Advisory may be needed for late Monday afternoon
and Monday night especially north of North Point Lighthouse. Brisk
nly winds and high waves may occur.
