Updated aviation portion for 06Z TAF issuance

.SHORT TERM...Tonight and Tuesday
Issued at 236 PM CDT Mon Apr 5 2021

Another warm and dry day across the area with temperatures in the
70s to lower 80s. Wausau, Marshfield and Wisconsin Rapids have
set record highs for the date with several other sites within a
degree or two of the record. The combination of the dry
vegetation, unseasonably warm temperatures, low humidity, and
gusty winds has led to another day of elevated fire weather
conditions. At least 6 fires have been noted today northwest of
the Fox Valley.

For tonight, a warm front will continue to lift northward across
northern Wisconsin. An area of low pressure along with a cold
front, and weak upper level disturbance across Minnesota will
head east into the state late tonight. For tonight, there is a
weak disturbance moving across the southern portion of the state.
This feature could trigger an isolated thunderstorm across
portions of central and east-central Wisconsin late this afternoon
into early this evening. Meanwhile, the main thunderstorm
activity is expected to develop across northern Minnesota late
this afternoon into this evening and then move eastward across
northern Wisconsin later this evening into the overnight hours.
Models indicating most unstable CAPE values of 1,000 to 1,500
J/KG, 0-6 km shear values of 30 to 35 knots and steep mid level
lapse rates support the potential for some strong or severe
thunderstorms across north-central Wisconsin later this evening
into early Tuesday morning. The SPC Day 1 Outlook has portions
of north-central Wisconsin in the Marginal Risk of severe weather.
Large hail and damaging winds will be the primary threat.

The first cluster of storms will exit the area late tonight into
early Tuesday morning. There will be a lull or break in the
activity until afternoon when activity fires up along the cold
front that will be sagging south during the day. Severe
thunderstorms are not expected on Tuesday. High temperatures
will range from around 60 north to the lower to middle 70s
south.

.LONG TERM...Tuesday Night Through Monday
Issued at 236 PM CDT Mon Apr 5 2021

A frontal boundary will remain across the western Great Lakes
region, which will bring several periods of showers and isolated
thunderstorms at times for the middle to late part of the week as
several low pressure systems track through the region. The main
low will approach the area as a closed off low Thursday and
Thursday night from the central Plains, lingering across the
region as another low approaches from the west by the weekend.
Although the track of the first low has come into better focus,
keeping the weather active for the middle to late part of the
week, the track of the second low is less certain. The uncertainty
of the track of this second low will be the difference between a
mainly dry weekend with a small chance for showers or a wetter
weekend. Given the lack of clarity will not stray from the NBM
POPs in this period. Yet another low pressure system is slated to
track through the area early next week, which could continue the
wet streak of weather across the western Great Lakes.

Temperatures during the extended portion of the forecast are
expected to 10 to 20 degrees above normal for this time of year.

.AVIATION...for 06Z TAF Issuance
Issued at 1047 PM CDT Mon Apr 5 2021

Scattered thunderstorms are expected northwest of a AUW to IMT
line tonight ahead of an approaching cold front. In addition, low
clouds and fog could from along the Lake Michigan shore later
tonight, but it is uncertain whether it would move inland to the
airports at MTW/SUE/2P2.

As the cold front moves slowly east across the area Tuesday,
scattered thunderstorms will produce periods of MVFR conditions.

Ceilings and visibilities will lower into MVFR or IFR range
Tuesday night along with scattered showers and thunderstorms.
