What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Green Bay, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at May 18, 4:35 AM CDT, 30 minutes earlier.

.SHORT TERM...Today...Tonight...and Sunday
Issued at 433 AM CDT Sat May 18 2019

The initial band of showers (associated with an 850 mb warm front)
has weakened considerably as it pushed into the lingering Canadian
surface ridge and dry air (dew points in the upper 20s to middle
30s). Thunderstorms have also tapered off, expect in far western
WI, where a 35-40 knot LLJ was aimed. One feature to watch is a
line of storms moving through southwest MN and northwest IA, in
association with a short-wave trof. The remnants of this activity
will likely impact our southwest counties later this morning.

The 850 mb warm front is expected to lift north this morning, with
the boundary getting locked in place across northern WI today,
then across central and northeast WI tonight. Moisture will
increase, with PWATs rising to 1 to 1.5 inches over the region.
Have focused the highest pops near the elevated front, with the
heaviest rain likely occurring late tonight, in response to the
development of a 30-40 knot LLJ. Have also placed a brief period
of higher pops in our southwest counties during the late morning
to early afternoon to account for the remnants of upstream
convection in conjunction with a weak short-wave trof. Highs
today should be in the 40s north, and 50s to around 60 far south.
Lows tonight should be in the upper 30s and lower 40s north to the
middle 40s south.

On Sunday, a powerful negatively-tilted short-wave trof is
expected to move through the region. An associated surface low
will move through central WI, with the warm sector possibly
lifting into our far southern tier of counties in the afternoon.
If this occurs, there will be a severe thunderstorm threat in
parts of east-central WI during the afternoon. Large hail and
damaging winds would be the main threats. Farther north, steadier
showers and a few embedded storms are anticipated. Highs will be
in the 40s northwest, and 50s to lower 60s southeast.

.LONG TERM...Sunday Night Through Friday
Issued at 433 AM CDT Sat May 18 2019

Main pattern next week at 500mb indicated building ridge
across the southeast United States with a persistent western
trough. Active southwest flow aloft across the western Great
Lakes region. Several systems to contend with during the period.
Temperatures for next week will start out below normal, but
should turn closer to normal by the end of the forecast period.
Precipitation will probably end up at or above normal, especially
if the system late next week brings rounds of showers and storms
across the region.

First system should continue to move away from the area Sunday
night, bringing an end to the rain. High pressure will build into
the region on Monday, then slide east east of the area Monday
night. Next system on its heels as rain is expected across much
of the region Tuesday into Wednesday morning. Beyond Thursday,
a more active pattern is possible Thursday night into Friday
next with more showers and storms. Only minor changes made to
max/min temperatures on some days during the period.

.AVIATION...for 06Z TAF Issuance
Issued at 1025 PM CDT Fri May 17 2019

Convection firing in a region of isentropic lift within a strong
frontal zone has been focused from southeast Minnesota to southern
Wisconsin during the evening. The convection will slowly expand
north overnight, but dry air will continue to feed southwest into
the area at low-levels. That should keep cloud bases from dropping
too quickly, so primarily VFR conditions are expected tonight.
But as an inversion strengthens across the area Saturday into
Saturday evening and low levels moisten, ceilings will trend
downward. Exactly how quickly/when that occurs is difficult to
determine, but anticipate ceilings eventually dropping to IFR/LIFR
across most of the area.
&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 433 AM CDT Sat May 18 2019

A slow moving low pressure system will bring showers and
scattered thunderstorms to the region this weekend. The rain
should taper off and end Monday morning. Rainfall amounts of
1 to 2 inches with locally higher amounts can be expected. The
additional rainfall should cause some rivers to reach bankfull or
flood stage later this weekend into next week. In addition, there
is concern for flooding along the East River in the Green Bay
area. High water levels on the Bay of Green Bay and the Fox River,
combined with persistent and gusty northeast winds may cause the
water to back up on the East River, resulting in localized
flooding. A Hydrologic Outlook (ESF) will also be issued this
morning to address the flooding concerns this weekend into next
week.

There is a chance of thunderstorms, mainly across central and east
central Wisconsin. Severe weather is not expected, but storms
may produce brief heavy downpours.

Thunderstorms are possible across parts of central, east central
and northeast Wisconsin on Sunday. There is a marginal risk of
severe storms with large hail and damaging winds in east-central
Wisconsin during the afternoon.

Widespread rainfall totals of 1 to 2 inches with locally higher
amounts can be expected over the weekend. This could cause rivers
and streams to rise above bankfull or flood stage, and result in
minor urban flooding.

Thunderstorms are also possible during the mid to late part of
the next work week. It is too early to determine if any of these
storms will be severe.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
