.SHORT TERM...(Today through Thursday)
Issued at 412 AM CDT Wed Jul 22 2020

Surface low pressure centered over northern Wisconsin and western
Upper Michigan this morning will meander southeastward today.
Wrap around moisture and cyclonic flow aloft will keep clouds and
drizzle or scattered light rain showers in the picture through
this morning. Clouds will be slowest to depart northwest Wisconsin
during the afternoon hours. High pressure will build in from the
north. Temperatures will remain cooler than normal today with
readings in the middle 60s in northwest Wisconsin and the upper
70s in north-central Minnesota, where the fewest clouds will be
found. Continued quiet tonight and Thursday as the ridge axis
slides east of the Northland. Southerly return flow will develop
Thursday. Temperatures will trend warmer than the past several
days with highs in the low 70s along the North Shore to the low
80s over north-central Minnesota.

.LONG TERM...(Thursday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 412 AM CDT Wed Jul 22 2020

A warm front is forecast to lift through the region Thursday
night and Friday. There is a chance of a few showers or
thunderstorms on the nose of a low-level jet, which will veer into
the central and north-central Minnesota after 06Z Friday. Storms
will continue along the front as it lifts into Ontario during the
day. Temperatures will trend warmer and southerly moisture
transport will increase dewpoints and humidity across the
Northland. Look for highs on Friday to reach the middle 70s in the
Arrowhead to the middle and upper 80s from north-central and
central Minnesota east into the I-35 Corridor.

A few thunderstorms may percolate along a cold front over eastern
North Dakota Friday afternoon and evening and may push east into
our western zones Friday night and early Saturday morning. The
front will lag to the west during the day Saturday and should
arrive during the afternoon or evening hours. Another round of
thunderstorms is forecast, some of which may be strong to severe.
Surface high pressure will move over the region Sunday and Monday.
Sunday may be a warm one, as well, but humidity will be a bit
lower with northwest flow behind Saturday’s system. Monday looks
to be several degrees cooler with highs a few degrees either side
of 80. An upper-level trough will propagate eastward through the
eastern Dakotas and the Upper Midwest Monday night and Tuesday
morning, which may touch off a few showers or thunderstorms. After
the nocturnal showers dissipate Tuesday morning, look for dry
conditions through the end of the period.

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday morning)
Issued at 653 AM CDT Wed Jul 22 2020

Surface low pressure centered near KLNL with a trough axis angled
back toward the Bayfield Peninsula will drift southeastward
today. MVFR/IFR stratus, showers, and drizzle will gradually clear
late this morning through tonight as the low pulls away from the
region.

.MARINE...
Issued at 1051 AM CDT Wed Jul 22 2020
