Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Green Bay WI
641 PM CDT Fri Jul 19 2019

Updated aviation portion for 00Z TAF issuance

.SHORT TERM...Tonight and Saturday
Issued at 352 PM CDT Fri Jul 19 2019

Main focus is on potential for significant severe weather this
evening.

Latest surface observations as of 20 UTC indicated surface warm
front making slow progress northward ahead of developing surface
wave currently over southwest Minnesota. Warm front stretched from
near Sheboygan to near Stevene Point to LaCrosse. Warm front has
been a bit slower moving northward than previously forecast.
Meanwhiile, upstream convection has rapidly developed near and
just northeast of surface low pressure system. Discrete SC
structures and small line segments already taking shape southwest
of DLH to near Alexandria Minnesota. Convection already starting
to enter far northwest Wisconsin northwest of Hayward. Appears
active convection will start to impact the far northwest portion
of the forercast area by 22-23 UTC which is a little sooner than
previous CAM forecasts. CAMS,particularly the HRRR, have been
very consistent in convection growing upscale to impressive QLCS
and tracking it across the northcentral portion of the forecast
area. However latest few HRRR runs have been a bit further south
with the deep convection which seems to fit the latest radar and
satellite observations. Deep layer shear over the northern half of
the forecast area is impressive especially given the degree of
instablity currently situated over the southern half of Minnesota
and over the southwest half of Wisconsin. MLCAPES are well over
4000 J/kg in this area and the instablity continues to move slowly
northward ahead of the approaching low pressure system. The
combination of 0-6 km shear greater than 40-45 kts and instablity
certainly favors initially discrete SC storms over central
Minnesota into northwest Wisconsin capable of very large hail,
significant damaging winds and perhaps a few tornadoes. There is
some uncertainty as to how quickly the convection can grow upscale
into large bowing line segment before impacting northcentral
Wisconsin. Another complicating factor is that the airmass over
far northern Wisconsin is still not as unstable as surface Tds are
still only in the mid-upper 50s. Thus, the greatest severe
weather threat may end up shifting a little further south. Given
the amount of 0-3 km shear, possibity of embedded weak tornadoes
within organized QLCS is also possible especially over northcentral
part of the forecast area.

ST forecast guidance has been pretty consistent on moving
convective activity east of the area around midnight.

Saturday, still somewhat uncertain for severe potential. Surface
boundary will likely extend somewhere over the central portion of
the forecast area. Models suggest another weak impulse make
interact with that boundary during the afterenoon hours which may
kick off additional convection. At this time, a slight risk for
the southern portion still seems warranted but will need to see
how overnight convection plays out as atmosphere may be pretty
worked over. Certainly will be noticably cooler for Saturday with
clouds and northerly winds especially north of I29.

.LONG TERM...Saturday Night Through Friday
Issued at 352 PM CDT Fri Jul 19 2019

The main highlights from this forecast period are the precip
trends for Saturday night into Sunday and the upper-level pattern
change that will bring drier conditions and near seasonal
temperatures to the area.

Saturday night into Sunday...A nearly stationary frontal boundary
will propagate south over Wisconsin on Saturday. By Saturday
evening, a surface high pressure system will be moving into the
Upper Mississippi Valley helping to push the slow frontal boundary
south out of the forecast area. Model guidance indicates the main
axis of showers and storms will ride along this front, with less
significant precipitation trailing behind it. The possibility for
storms over the forecast area late Saturday evening and night
will be on the decrease, as instability and lapse rates decrease
across the forecast area as the front moves south. It is possible
for some of the trailing precipitation to stick around across
central and east-central Wisconsin into Sunday morning.

Rest of the extended...The upper-level pattern will begin to
change on Sunday evening over the Upper Mississippi Valley to a
northwest mean flow. At the same time, a strong ridge of high
pressure over the Northern Plains will continue to build. The
northwest flow aloft and a surface high pressure moving into the
Northern Plains from Canada will keep the forecast area dry
through the rest of the extended. There are some hints of a
shortwave impacting the area on Wednesday that could bring the
next chance for showers and storms, however, much uncertainty
remains with this feature. Will continue to monitor.

.AVIATION...for 00Z TAF Issuance
Issued at 641 PM CDT Fri Jul 19 2019

A mesoscale convective system is currently developing across
northwest Wisconsin and is forecast to dive southeast through all
of the TAF sites during the evening hours. This complex is
expected to bring mainly high winds and heavy rain, however
isolated tornadoes and large hail are also possible. The complex
is expected to reach RHI around 00Z, AUW/CWA just after 01Z,
KGRB/KATW/KOSH just after 03Z and KMTW after 04Z.

Shower and thunderstorm activity is expected to end during the
overnight with relatively benign conditions through the morning
hours on Saturday. Showers and thunderstorms are again possible on
Saturday, mainly across central and east-central Wisconsin.
However there is quite a bit of model uncertainty with some models
keeping the activity south of the TAF sites. Therefore will leave
out of the current set of TAFs.

.KOSH...Southerly winds less than 10 knots this evening. Medium
confidence in TSRA impacting KOSH between 03-06Z this evening.
These thunderstorms could be strong to severe as they hit the
airport with damaging winds and heavy rain. Isolated tornadoes and
large hail are also possible. Introduced a prevailing group for
TSRA with northwest wind potential of 30 knots impacting the
terminal. Most favorable timing for thunderstorm activity Saturday
afternoon is between 17-23Z Saturday if it occurs.

Windshifts of interest include...potential for abrupt wind shift
to northwest due to thunderstorm winds at around 03Z. Low
confidence in wind direction post thunderstorm activity tonight,
current forecast keeps winds southwest.
