...A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1015 PM CDT
FOR SOUTH CENTRAL WOOD COUNTY...

At 955 PM CDT, a severe thunderstorm was located 11 miles southwest 
of Wisconsin Rapids, moving southeast at 30 mph. Another storm was 
developing near Babcock and may also produce hail and damaging wind 
gusts.

HAZARD...60 mph wind gusts and quarter size hail.

SOURCE...Radar indicated.

IMPACT...Hail damage to vehicles is expected. Expect wind damage to 
         roofs, siding, and trees.

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Green Bay WI
647 PM CDT Mon Aug 24 2020

Updated aviation portion for 00Z TAF issuance

.SHORT TERM...Tonight and Tuesday
Issued at 225 PM CDT Mon Aug 24 2020

Main forecast issue centers around the anticipated convective
complex of thunderstorms that will move across central and east-
central WI tonight. Questions also linger on Tuesday regarding
potential for additional showers/storms that may develop during
the afternoon.

The 19Z MSAS surface analysis showed a cold front that stretched
from north-central WI southwest into southern MN. Weak high
pressure extended from northeast ND into northern MN. The radar
mosaic indicated scattered showers and thunderstorms that have
moved into west-central WI.

The cold front is forecast to slowly sag south into central WI
tonight and be the primary focus for showers and thunderstorms.
Despite a gradual loss of daytime heating, enough instability
(MUCAPES of 1K-2K J/KG) to be in place this evening along with
stronger shear of 35-45 knots, to produce strong to locally severe
storms generally along and south of Highway 29. Large hail and
damaging winds would be the primary threats. In addition, PW
values of 1.5-2.0 inches and dew points around 70 degrees ahead of
the front may produce very heavy rainfall with possible flooding
if thunderstorms train over the same area. The chance of showers/
storms over northern WI should dissipate overnight as the front
edges south. This may lead to fog development if enough breaks in
the clouds can occur. Min temperatures to range from the lower 50s
near the MI border (north-central WI), to the upper 60s across
east-central WI.

The cold front is forecast to stall between central and southern
WI on Tuesday and linger a chance of showers/few thunderstorms
over parts of central/east-central WI through morning hours. As
daytime heating takes place, cannot rule out a few showers/storms
to pop up again over parts of central/east-central WI. Areas north
of Highway 29 should see a decent amount of sunshine, less
humidity and slightly cooler temperatures. Look for max
temperatures to range from the upper 70s to around 80 degrees
north, lower to middle 80s south.

.LONG TERM...Tuesday Night Through Monday
Issued at 225 PM CDT Mon Aug 24 2020

Zonal flow will continue through the work week, with with a west
to east oriented frontal boundary lingering near the area. The air
mass will be very warm, moist and unstable, leading to several
periods of thunderstorm activity. Temperatures through this
period are expected to be much above normal through Thursday, but
daily readings will be dependent on the position of the frontal
boundary, any ongoing precipitation, and debris cloudiness from
overnight convection. Wednesday looks to to be the warmest day,
with highs reaching the lower 90s in central and east central WI.

The frontal boundary will lift north as a warm front Tuesday
night into Wednesday. Strong H8 WAA will become focused over
north/northeast WI overnight, and upper forcing with the RRQ of
an upper level jet will affect this same area. While isolated/
scattered convection may be found along the boundary in the
evening, the main activity is expected over the northeast half of
the CWA late Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, when the
dynamic forcing will be greatest. There are some timing differences,
with the GFS holding off any significant development until Wednesday
morning. Severe thunderstorms with large hail are possible, given
substantial elevated instability (H8 LI's -3 to -7 C) and strong
shear (bulk shear 40-50 kts, SRH 200-400). Heavy rainfall will
also be a concern, as PWATs will be in the 1.5 to 2 inch range.
The warm front may become stationary over northern WI later
Wednesday, leading to a continued threat of strong to severe
storms near the Upper Michigan border in the afternoon and evening.
Farther south, very warm mid-level temperatures (capping) should
suppress convective development.

The front will sag back to the south as a cold front later
Wednesday night into Thursday, and could result in another bout of
strong storms over the southern half of the CWA Thursday afternoon
and evening. The threat of showers and storms will continue until
a more significant Canadian cold front sweeps across the area
Friday night.

A cooler and drier Canadian air mass will return to the area for
the weekend, with temperatures near to a little below normal. As
the high shifts east early next week, southerly return flow will
bring the chance of precipitation back into the western Great
lakes region.

.AVIATION...for 00Z TAF Issuance
Issued at 641 PM CDT Mon Aug 24 2020

A cold front passing through northeast Wisconsin this evening,
will stall over central/southern WI on Tuesday. Expect scattered
showers and thunderstorms much of central and east-central
Wisconsin late this evening into the overnight hours. Gusty winds
and large hail are possible with the strongest storms. VFR
conditions will exist where no precipitation occurs. However,
vsbys could quickly drop to IFR under of the storms. Partial
clearing skies will occur late tonight across the north which may
lead to patchy fog and vsbys dropping into the IFR/MVFR range.

As long as the stalled front is in the vicinity, a few showers and
thunderstorms may develop throughout the day Tuesday, but mainly
in the afternoon hours. While VFR conditions to be most
prevalent, vsbys could drop into the MVFR category under any
precipitation. Additional chances of showers and storms will
linger into Tuesday night as the front lifts northward as a warm
front, again, some of those storms could become strong to severe
late Tuesday night.
