What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this winter storm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS La Crosse, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this winter storm warning went out at Feb 6, 2:50 PM CST, 39 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Feb 6, 2:50 PM CST, 39 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service La Crosse WI
250 PM CST Wed Feb 6 2019
.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday)
Issued at 250 PM CST Wed Feb 6 2019
A messy wintry mix of precipitation still looks to be on track to
impact the area through the overnight hours. By mid-afternoon, some
showery precipitation was beginning to move into far southwest
portions of the forecast area as some weak shortwave energy was
sliding through. Observations indicated a little bit of everything,
with snow, sleet, and some freezing rain/drizzle; even a few
lightning strikes were seen as some instability slid through. The
mix will continue northeastward through this evening, with a dry
punch aloft moving in behind it leading to a lack of ice in the
cloud layer. Any precipitation should then transition to freezing
drizzle, with soundings showing continued low level saturation
overnight. Overall, looking 0.1 to 0.2" of ice accumulation.
Much stronger energy will then move into the area by Thursday
morning (around 12Z) as a long wave trough continues to slide
eastward, with a surface low tracking northeastward through Missouri
and Illinois. In addition to the stronger lift, much more moisture
aloft will produce mainly snow across the area during the day on
Thursday. Guidance has trended up with QPF during the day, with the
06.18Z RAP showing strong frontogenesis and some slantwise
instability. Therefore, have upped snowfall amounts across the area,
with 3 to 9 inches expected for most. The highest amounts will
generally be north of Interstate 90 and east of the Mississippi
River. A Winter Storm Warning has been issued for counties in this
area, while the Winter Weather Advisory remains in effect
elsewhere.
.LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Wednesday)
Issued at 250 PM CST Wed Feb 6 2019
Surface low lifts northeast into southern Ontario Canada Thursday
evening. The 06.12z GFS/NAM continue to wrap snow across much of the
forecast area Thursday evening...then begin to taper off to flurries
after 06z Friday. The 06.12z GFS/NAM show tight pressure gradient
across the forecast area through Thursday evening. With new fallen
snow and potential for lighter fluffy snow...drifting and blowing
snow can be expected in open areas...especially west of the
Mississippi River.
Colder airmass advects into the forecast area after 06z Friday...as
the 06.12z deterministic models suggest minus 20 to minus 25 degrees
celsius at 925mb by 12z Friday. Combined with the wind...wind chill
values will be in the minus 20 to minus 35 range late Thursday night
into Saturday morning. High temperatures are expected to range in
the single digits below and above zero Friday with low temperatures
falling into the single digits to teens below zero Thursday night
and Friday night. Temperatures warm slightly Saturday...as
shortwave/surface ridge builds into the Great Lakes Region...and
highs should climb into the teens across much of the forecast area.
Main forecast concerns Saturday night through Wednesday are
precipitation chances through the period. The 06.12z GFS/ECMWF/GEM
are in good agreement digging upper level trough over western United
States and moving upper level trough into the Upper Great Lakes
Region through the period. Pieces of energy embedded in the
southwesterly flow aloft/out ahead of the upper level trough will
provide enough lift and forcing to produce snow across the southern
portions of the forecast area late Saturday night into Sunday.
Then...the deterministic 06.12z GFS/ECMWF/GEM lift upper level
trough into the Central United States/Great Lakes Region Tuesday
into Wednesday. This will allow for precipitation across the entire
forecast area. However...confidence of timing of the upper level
trough into the Great Lakes Region Tuesday into Wednesday remains
low. For now...the higher likelihood of precipitation is expected to
fall on Tuesday and Wednesday to be dry. Temperatures through the
period should remain near or slightly below normal...mainly in the
teens and 20s for high temperatures.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Friday morning)
Issued at 1113 AM CST Wed Feb 6 2019
IFR cigs, with MVFR cigs in MS/WI river valleys, to persist this
afternoon. First round of forcing/lift to move across the area late
this afternoon/early this evening, with MVFR/IFR vsbys in a wintry
mix of -FZDZ/-SN/-PL/BR to move across the taf sites between roughly
00-04z. Behind this first round of stronger lift is a period of
shallower moisture and weaker lift, which looks to produce IFR cigs
and MVFR/IFR vsbys in -FZDZ/BR for the later evening and overnight
hours. Around 12z, the main round of lift and deeper moisture ahead
of the plains troughing spreads into the area, with IFR cigs/vsbys
expected in -SN thru Thu morning. May be periods of LIFR in SN after
15z, but not enough confidence to include that in the end of the taf
period just yet. Winds thru the period to be NW to NE and generally
less than 10 kts.
