Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service La Crosse WI
655 AM CDT Mon Aug 10 2020

.SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight)
Issued at 221 AM CDT Mon Aug 10 2020

Early morning radar imagery showed a cluster of severe storms
moving through the Twin Cities area, just ahead of a southwest to
northeast oriented surface cold front. SPC mesoanalysis suggests
3000+ J/kg of MUCAPE ahead of these storms with effective shear of
35 to 40 kts continuing southeast with them. In addition, low
level moisture transport, while not particularly strong, does look
to persist through sunrise. Therefore, thinking these storms
should continue into the forecast area, with additional
development expected as the front continues to advance
southeastward. Time of day suggests damaging wind would be tough
to come by, but have seen a 50+ kt gust or two at times as
additional cores form and combine with ongoing convection. That
said, hail should be the main threat as these storms move in this
morning.

Meanwhile, expect additional storms to form across southern South
Dakota and eventually develop into an eastward moving MCS that
tracks across Iowa and possibly clips far southwest Wisconsin
today. Already seeing some signs of this occurring with light
showers forming along what seems to be a weak secondary surface
boundary. Eventually, expect this to develop into an eastward
moving MCS that moves across Iowa today. It should eventually
catch up to the main boundary and bring a strong to severe storm
threat to far southern portions of the forecast area. Said threat
will really depend on how far southeast the main front makes it,
with areas behind said front seeing much less of a threat.
Otherwise, could see some lighter showers farther north associated
with the aforementioned secondary boundary as it slowly sinks
southward this afternoon.

Any precip should exit by late afternoon/early evening with high
pressure building in behind the front. This should lead to
clearing skies tonight, with perhaps some fog forming in the MS
River tributaries, though winds just above the surface look like
they might be a bit too strong for more widespread development.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday through Sunday)
Issued at 221 AM CDT Mon Aug 10 2020

Upper level flow looks to remain zonal through much of the period
with surface high pressure building in and leading to quiet
weather through Wednesday morning or so. Models are in good
agreement then of several shortwave troughs moving through the
forecast area and bringing off and on shower and storm chances
through the remainder of the period. While quite a bit of model
spread remains timing and strength (though nothing looks overly
strong), GEFS members seem to be in pretty good agreement of the
first chances moving in Wednesday. That said, the 10.00Z
GFS/ECMWF/NAM all remain dry, so forecast confidence remains
fairly low. Otherwise, expect seasonable temperatures into next
weekend, with highs generally in the 80s and lows in the 50s and
60s.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Monday morning)
Issued at 655 AM CDT Mon Aug 10 2020

Cigs: some potential for a brief period of MVFR cigs post shra/ts
and passage of cold front. Not seeing much evidence in obs so will
leave VFR for the moment. Skies look to clear this afternoon with
VFR expected through Tue.

WX/vsby: SHRA/TS look to clear KLSE by 14z with some impacts to vsby
and potentially small hail. With clearing skies tonight and recent
rains, fog could develop. Low level moisture on the decrease with
passage of cold front though, and have opted to not add to forecast
for now.

Winds: swinging to the north with passage of cold front. Could have
higher gusts at KLSE with any storm through 14z. Generally light
tonight.
