WOODWhat forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Milwaukee, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this severe thunderstorm warning went out at Jun 30, 6:54 AM CDT, 5 hours 5 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Jun 30, 6:54 AM CDT, 5 hours 5 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI 654 AM CDT Sun Jun 30 2019 .UPDATE... Have bumped precip chances up a bit and also moved the timing an hour or so earlier based on latest radar trends. Radar reflectivities have weakened a little across the western half of the line of storms, though the cloud tops are showing no signs of warming. Also lowered temps a bit for the first part of the day, with clouds already moving in along with the expected rain later. If this moves through fast enough, could see a window of time for temps to recover mid to late afternoon. && .AVIATION(12Z TAFS)... VFR conditions are expected into the mid-morning hours. It still looks like thunderstorms will move through southern Wisconsin today. Latest timing suggests storms will arrive in the north by 16Z, working through the area through mid-afternoon. There is still some uncertainty with how well this line of storms will survive and if the timing will stay on track. When the storms do eventually arrive, there is a chance that some of them may be severe, with damaging winds the primary threat. More storms will be possible tonight, though confidence in timing is on the low side for now. Lower visibilites and possibly ceilings will be possible with any thunderstorms over the next 24 hours. && .PREV DISCUSSION... (Issued 301 AM CDT Sun Jun 30 2019) SHORT TERM... Today and tonight...Forecast confidence is medium: A complex of thunderstorms continues to push southeastward across northern Minnesota early this morning. These storms have formed within a fairly tight instability gradient. The gradient along with storm motion and propagation vectors suggest this complex will continue to head southeastward through the morning. Mesoscale models present a couple different solutions. One group of solutions wipes out the current storms later this morning and fires more storms late afternoon along the leftover boundary, which would keep southern Wisconsin dry until evening. Another group of solutions keeps the current storms rolling right into the forecast area. Given no obvious reason for the current complex to die, leaned the forecast toward the latter solution. Tracking the upstream storms' current motion would bring them to the northern forecast area by around noon, with storms clearing the south between 3 and 4. The storms will have a chance to be severe, with strong winds being the primary threat. The other big issue today is temperatures. Sided temperatures toward the earlier arrival of storms. Any variation in this though will impact temps quite a bit. Temps aloft will be quite toasty today, so a slower arrival of clouds/precip will allow temps to easily pass forecast highs. Mid 90s wouldn't be out of the question in the southwest with heat indices over 100 given plenty of sunshine into mid- afternoon. If the storms arrive quicker and cloud debris hangs through the afternoon, the forecast highs are probably too warm. More storms will be possible tonight given this airmass hanging around and waves occasionally passing through. Not a lot of model agreement with timing though, so kept precip chances in the 30 to 50 percent range most of the night. It should be mild again tonight given the airmass and plenty of clouds expected. LONG TERM... Monday and Monday Night...Forecast Confidence Low to Moderate. Thunderstorms will likely be ongoing along the frontal boundary Monday morning, which should either be across the northern portion of the forecast area, or just north of. Its position will be dependent on how things play out today and tonight, so lots of uncertainty here. Overall, the boundary should shift north with time on Monday, as the upper ridge strengthens a bit over the lower Missouri Valley. Very warm temperatures will continue, with highs in the upper 80s to around 90. Tuesday and Wednesday...Forecast Confidence Low. The surface front will continue to wiggle around the central part of the state on Tuesday, with percolating shower and thunderstorm activity within its vicinity. A weak shortwave coming out of the Rockies will try to undercut the northern periphery of the ridge on Tuesday, which may result in a slight uptick in storm coverage by afternoon. Plenty of instability but marginal shear will continue to result in a disorganized, conditional severe threat with any activity. Forecast confidence is especially low for Wednesday, as much will depend on the aforementioned shortwave and the evolution of thunderstorms on Tuesday. The chance for thunderstorms will continue, though potential will be ultimately be focused wherever the effective front lies. Thursday through next Sunday...Forecast Confidence Low to Moderate. Warm and humid conditions will persist through the remainder of the workweek into the at least the first part of the weekend, as the upper level flow becomes a bit more zonal. The warm and humid airmass will provide sufficient instability for at least scattered thunderstorms, likely with a diurnal peak in late afternoon and early evening. A stronger wave is still progged to push through the northern Great Lakes over the weekend. If this eventually takes place, it would likely push a frontal boundary through the area, bringing with it a cooler and less humid airmass. AVIATION(09Z TAFS)... Could see some patchy fog develop overnight through early morning, but otherwise VFR conditions are expected through the morning hours. Keeping an eye on the storms over northern Minnesota, as this activity is expected to eventually reach southern Wisconsin. Latest timing suggests storms will arrive in the north by around noon, working through the area through mid- afternoon. Will adjust the timing as needed as the arrival details of the storms become more clear over the next few hours. Some models still wipe this activity out then develop more later today, so confidence isn't particularly high yet. When the storms do eventually arrive, there is a chance that some of them may be severe, with damaging winds the primary threat. More storms will be possible tonight, though confidence in timing is on the low side for now. Lower visibilites and possibly ceilings will be possible with any thunderstorms over the next 24 hours. MARINE... Winds and waves will be on the low end through much of the upcoming week. There will be a chance for thunderstorms most days. Some of the storms may be severe over the next couple days. There could be come fog over the lake at times through the next few days given the warm and humid airmass. && .MKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WI...None.
