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 Green Bay, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this winter storm warning went out at Jan 6, 2:43 PM CST, 9 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jan 6, 2:43 PM CST, 9 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Green Bay WI 243 PM CST Sun Jan 6 2019 Forecast discussion for routine afternoon forecast issuance .SHORT TERM...Tonight and Monday Issued at 243 PM CST Sun Jan 6 2019 The notable changes to the forecast include upgrading Forest, Florence and northern sections of Marinette and Oconto Counties to a winter storm warning. Did drop Waushara County from the winter weather advisory. Upper trough approaching from the west will bring mixed precipitation to the area later tonight and Monday. Models showing strong 850mb warm advection as 60 to 65 knot low level jet cranks up later this evening and overnight. This strong surge of warm air will cause problems with precipitation type forecasts across central into east-central Wisconsin before changing over to rain later tonight into early Monday morning. Surface temperatures will climb above freezing and 850mb temperatures climb to or a few degrees above 0C. This surge of warm air is problematic with current headlines in place as numerical guidance has much of the area south of highway 29 climbing into the middle 30s to near 40 by 12z Monday morning. Per coordination with NWS La Crosse, will let current headlines run to their current expiration time. Feeling is the midnight shift or the day shift maybe able to cancel early. It appears there will be a sharp gradient in snowfall amounts with less than an inch south of Highway 10. 1 to 3 inches is expected from Highway 10 to south of a Mosinee to Shawano to Marinette line. Over the far north, 3 to 6 inches of snow is expected with locally higher amounts are possible across Forest, Florence, and northern sections of Marinette and Oconto Counties. The heaviest snowfall rates are expected late tonight into early Monday morning. The snow will change over to rain from south to north on Monday as warm air moves into the region. Highs on Monday may reach the middle 40s across east-central Wisconsin. .LONG TERM...Monday Night Through Sunday Issued at 243 PM CST Sun Jan 6 2019 The main forecast concerns will be precipitation chances and lake-effect potential from Monday night into Wednesday night. A potent short-wave trof will brush the southern part of the forecast area late Monday night into Tuesday morning, and may bring an inch of snow to our southern tier of counties. After the short-wave exits, CAA and subsidence will result in windy conditions, with gusts to 30 to 40 mph over parts of central and east central WI. Cold northwest to north-northwest flow will lead to lake-effect snow showers Tuesday night into Wednesday night. Several inches of snow can be expected over Vilas county before the lake-effect winds down Wednesday night. An inverted surface trof will move through the region Friday into Saturday, and bring a chance of snow showers. Quieter conditions should prevail for the latter half of the weekend. Mild tuemperature on Tuesday will give way to slightly below normal readings for the latter half of the work week, followed by a return to slightly above normal temperatures over the weekend. && .AVIATION...for 18Z TAF Issuance Issued at 1112 AM CST Sun Jan 6 2019 The next system will approach from the west this afternoon. As the system approaches, low level wind shear is expected to increase to 50 to 60 knots late this evening into Monday morning. Snow is expected to arrive across portions of central and north-central Wisconsin late this evening or early on Monday, then across the region early Monday morning. The snow is expected to transition to rain, freezing rain or sleet before changing over to rain. It should be primarily snow across the north, with some rain later Monday morning into Monday afternoon. VFR CIGS will drop into the IFR category or lower later tonight and continue through much of Monday. && .GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Winter Weather Advisory from midnight tonight to 8 AM CST Monday for WIZ022-038>040-073-074. Winter Weather Advisory from midnight tonight to 9 AM CST Monday for WIZ030-031-035>037.
