Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
901 PM CDT Mon Sep 3 2018
.UPDATE...
The focus for rain has shifted north this evening. There is still
an axis of instability with enough effective shear to keep our
guard up southwest of Madison. Surface CIN is beginning to
increase however, likely turning this into elevated convection
over the next few hours. The HRRR also wants to keep the bulk of
the heavier stuff just west of the forecast area, but we'll keep
an eye on any border crossers. The precipitable water remains very
high at 2 inches. So, they are very efficient heavy rain
producers.
The main update this evening was to hoist a dense fog advisory for
the lake counties. The combo of this moist air mass with the
cooler low off the lake is resulting in dense fog close to the
water. I ran it through 4 am Tuesday for Milwaukee on south and
through 7 am up to Sheboygan. Southerly winds should kick in as
a warm front lifts through the area tonight, helping to scour out
the fog.
&&
.MARINE...
A marine dense fog advisory runs through 7 am Tuesday. Southeast
winds will veer to the southwest later tonight, helping to clear
out the fog. Those southerly winds will stick around through
Wednesday. Then a cold front sweeps through, possibly by late
Wednesday afternoon, bringing wind shift to the north. Those
northerly winds could result in small craft advisory conditions
later Wednesday night into Thursday.
&&
.PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 538 PM CDT Mon Sep 3 2018)
UPDATE...
The current forecast is more or less on track. We're keeping an
eye on areas southwest of Madison for the potential of strong
storms moving into that area before we begin to stabilize this
evening. There's a very tight CAPE gradient from Lafayette/Grant
counties south into Illinois and Iowa. Effective shear is pushing
40kts. Effective Sig Tor is approaching 1. There is a
rotating/tornadic storm in Linn county Iowa, moving east
northeast. It's doubtful it will make it up here, but it could be
close. A surface warm front will lift north through the area this
evening, eventually pushing the focus for showers/storms to the
north. No big changes to the forecast needed.
AVIATION(00Z TAFS)...
IFR conditions should impact areas close to Lake Michigan through
the evening. Eventually, southerly winds should lift the lower
CIGS/VSBYS north overnight as a warm front lifts north. Other IFR
CIGS should improve to MVFR CIGS across south central WI early
this evening, then VFR after midnight. All TAF sites should be VFR
by 09-10z Tuesday, continuing through the remainder of the TAF
period. Until the warm front lifts north of the area late this
evening, there will be a continued chance of thunderstorms. Any
activity should be scattered in nature. Drier weather is expected
later tonight through Tuesday.
PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 225 PM CDT mon SEP 3 2018)
THROUGH TONIGHT...Forecast Confidence - Medium.
SPC meso charts show more favorable thermodynamic profile in the
far southern potion of the cwa where some of the cells have been a
little feisty. Mid level wave riding in from the southwest
helping with some forcing from above while the LLJ and surface
warm front aid forcing from below. Large area of stratiform rain,
some moderate, affecting northwest cwa. Meanwhile deeper
convection in warm sector shifting north/northeast through
northern IL. 1000 ML cape into the far southern cwa with 500 MU
cape across the cwa, so isold tsra likely in northwest cwa with
better chances in the southern and southeast cwa closer to the
better instability. Expecting convection to be progressive and of
the non-training variety so will hold off on a flash flood watch
headline, though some urban flooding likely in some of the heavier
downpours.
Tuesday - Confidence...Medium
Progs show the mid level ridging expanding across the area with
building heights. Forcing gets pushed more to the northwest and
north of the area with the warm sector taking hold here. A
southerly wind and some sunshine should allow temps to rise well
into the 80s. At this time prefer the drier look of the NAM and
WPC with respect to acknowledging a drier scenario. However will
keep some small pops going for collab purposes.
Tuesday night and Wednesday - Confidence...Medium
As frontal boundary leans into the area this period will be
expanding the pops southeastward. Approaching mid level energy
will have enough oomph to break down the influence of the
ridging, so some additional forcing provided by this feature.
Surface front proggd to work through during the afternoon and
clear the south Wednesday evening. So will have pops for shra/tsra
along the front this period.
Thursday - Confidence...Medium
Front should be pushed far enough to the south to go with a dry
day. Surface high will be building in with a much cooler and
considerably less humid airmass in place.
EXTENDED PERIOD...
THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY...Forecast Confidence - Medium.
Zonal steering flow across the upper midwest and Great Lakes
will carry surface high pressure and mid-level ridging across
the area early in the period. Drier ENE flow will result in lower
humidity and continued dry conditions across southern WI through
Friday night. Temperatures will remain much more seasonal for early
September.
Medium range guidance comng into better agreement on developing
low pressure trof in the central Plains early in the weekend. This
trof will further strengthen to a mid-level short wave which
progresses eastward across the central MS Valley region into the
eastern Great Lakes by Sunday. Despite timing issues, Medium range
guidance has similar track and returns a threat for showers and
potentially heavy rain to southern WI on Saturday/Saturday night.
This short wave may have moisture remnants from tropical system
"Gordon", so atmosphere will be moisture rich with high precipitable
water returning. Fortunately, this system will remain progressive
with drier conditions returning Sunday into Monday.
AVIATION(21Z TAFS)...Continued off and on showers/thunderstorms
this period as ridge riding energy combines with an LLJ and slowly
lifting warm frontal boundary. As surface warm front lifts north
later tonight expecting some of the lower cigs/vsbys will also
gradually show some improvement as well. It appears the worst
vsbys have been near the lake and also in the northeast corner of
the cwa. The MET MOS seems to be handling the scenario best while
the GFS MOS looks too optimistic.
MARINE...With some colder lake surface temps being observed and
very moist airmass in place above will have a dense fog advisory
in place through 14z Tuesday. A wind shift potentially coming on
Thursday. Some higher gusts will be possible with that cold front
passage. Otherwise, the main concern will be with any
thunderstorms that roll through the region.

Visibility will be less than 1/4 mile in many locations. Look for visibilities to improve later tonight. Periods of rain and thunderstorms will affect the area mainly north of a line from Port Washington to Spring Green overnight. Locally heavy rain is possible, however severe weather is not anticipated. There is a lingering chance of showers or a thunderstorm to the south of that area, but rainfall should be much lighter and more isolated. Significant river flooding will continue along the Baraboo River while new flooding is expected to occur across the Rock and Crawfish River basins. Street flooding in downtown Madison will continue due to elevated releases from Lake Mendota into Lake Monona. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Tuesday through Monday River flooding is expected in central Wisconsin through late in the week. Areal flooding will also continue in parts of downtown Madison. There are small chances for thunderstorms Tuesday and a better chance Tuesday night into Wednesday. The chance for storms returns Friday night through Saturday night. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT... Spotter activation will not be needed.
