Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
552 PM CDT Fri Jul 13 2018

.UPDATE...

The early thunderstorm action has mostly been up along the front
over Fond du Lac county with weaker convection west of there. A
vigorous outflow is pushing south of this activity and may begin
to limit severe potential for a time. The main focus may be
shifting back to the southwest, with the line of storms pushing
into Grant. Richland and Sauk counties. The HRRR takes this in an
organized fashion east across southern Wisconsin. These storms
are getting some decent cores to a impressive height, but the
depth of the warm layer is doing some productive melting.
Generally 1 inch hail is what we've seen. The storms coming in
from the west will likely be a wind and hail threat. We are seeing
winds in the 50-60 mph range with a few storms. Quad Cities
airport to the south of Wisconsin had a gust of 75 mph. Expect
these storms to push east toward Lake Michigan, probably weakening
as they get to the east given diurnal trends of late evening.

If we see some training storms, or storms anchored in a location,
we will see some impressive rainfall. Precipitable water values
are going to be pushing 2 inches. Localized flash flooding would
be a threat, especially in urban areas.

&&

.AVIATION(00Z TAFS)...

Main concern for the TAF period will be the potential for severe
thunderstorms tonight. A line of storms will push east across
southern Wisconsin this evening, likely reaching KMSN around 02z
Saturday and if they hold together, reaching KMKE/KUES/KENW
toward 04-05z Saturday. We could see thunderstorms linger on and
off through about 15-18z Saturday, but the severe threat should
mostly be over after about 06z Sat. VFR conditions are expected
through the TAF period, but brief MVFR/IFR conditions may
accompany any stronger thunderstorms.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 232 PM CDT Fri Jul 13 2018)

SHORT TERM...
Tonight and Saturday...Forecast Confidence is Medium to High.

MLCAPE is rising above 2000 J/KG from central IA newd into sw WI,
which is near the stationary front. The slow moving shortwave
trough over the Middle MO River Valley and the right entrance
region of the upper jet will provide the upper support to the
lower level frontogenesis for convection late afternoon to Sat AM.
A combination of development along the stationary front this
afternoon and strong tstorms approaching from north central IA,
will produce clusters or lines of SVR tstorms late this afternoon
and evening. Damaging winds will be the primary threat as deep
layer shear around 30 kts and outflows organizes the tstorms. West
to east persistence of tstorm development may occur afterward and
continue into Sat AM as the 850 mb flow remains wswly and the
shortwave trough is slow to move across the area. Thus a flash
flood threat will be present especially with PWs near 2 inches.
Given the recent dry conditions will not issue a watch, but
isolated flash flooding may occur especially if an appreciable
amount of rain falls over the larger urban areas of S WI.

The showers and tstorms will focus more over the srn half of the
forecast area Sat AM with a good reduction of precipitation by
afternoon. Some sunshine may be possible late in the day. Warm and
humid conditions will continue.

LONG TERM...

Saturday night through Wednesday Night - Confidence is Medium.

Warm, moist airmass will remain in place Saturday night into
Monday. Forcing mechanisms look nebulous Saturday night and Sunday
and will largely depend on where boundaries from earlier
convection end up. Guidance consensus indicates that the better
forcing will either be south and/or north of the region, though
widely scattered diurnal based showers/storms cannot be ruled out
for Sunday afternoon. Have maintained a mention of low PoPs given
the uncertainty in placement/timing of any activity. Not seeing
anything that would indicate a wash out, but the risk for
scattered activity is there. Temperatures will remain above
average, with muggy conditions given high 60s/low 70s dewpoints.

12z suite of model output is a bit faster with the frontal
passage late Sunday night into midday Monday. Climatologically
speaking, this is not an ideal timing for robust convection,
however the anomalously moist airmass in place and convergence
associated with the front should be enough to maintain a chance
for showers and storms into Monday. Monday will likely start
muggy, but the influx of dry air from the northwest should result
in an improvement during the afternoon.

Monday night through Wednesday night look quiet as high pressure
dominates. Temperatures will be a few degrees below average with
northerly winds in place.

Thursday and Friday - Confidence is Low.

Thursday and Friday are arguably the most uncertain of this
forecast period. Recent model runs have suggested some sort of
upper level wave passage, with varying degrees of strength. 12z
model output have more of an open-wave feel, but the general gist
of increasing moisture and rain chances for Thursday into Friday
continue. There is a lot of real estate for this feature to travel
and plenty of time to keep an eye on any impacts it would have
for our region. Have maintained near average temps.

AVIATION(21Z TAFS)...
Areas of MVFR Cigs via cumulus clouds will occur at times this
afternoon into the early evening mainly north and northwest of
KMSN. Clusters or lines of strong to severe storms will also move
across S WI from late afternoon through the evening. Strong wind
gusts and significant reductions of Cigs and Vsbys within or near
the storms. Sct storms will then continue through the night into
Sat AM. The low levels of the atmosphere may become saturated late
tnt-Sat AM with areas of low Cigs and light fog developing.
Daytime heating on Sat should thin the Cigs or raise them to VFR
by afternoon.

MARINE...
Light winds and low wave heights from this afternoon through the
weekend.
