Special Marine Warning 45, NWS Milwaukee, WI

Area Forecast Discussion...UPDATED
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
940 PM CDT Sun Sep 12 2021

.UPDATE...
(Issued 940 PM CDT Sun Sep 12 2021)

Broken band of showers continues to shift east across central
portions of the area this evening, with this activity generally
extending westward into northwestern Iowa. This is being driven
mainly with the 850 mb confluence/weak warm air advection, and
some weak 500 mb vorticity maxima shifting through the region.

CAMs and synoptic models continue to show scattered showers and
perhaps some thunderstorms developing overnight into Monday
morning, as the influence of the low level jet nose/flow tries to
get into the area from the southwest. Some uncertainty with how
much influence this feature will have, as it may focus more to the
south. Will continue to bring up PoPs somewhat overnight into
Monday morning, as capping to elevated parcels may weaken during
this period.

Another period for scattered shower/storm activity may occur
Monday afternoon into the evening, with the 850 mb boundary
influence lingering until the warm front moves back north through
the area.

Will still need to look out for any sustained elevated convection,
if it develops, for large hail potential. Forecast soundings are
still showing a good amount of elevated CAPE with fairly strong
effective layer shear. This should be limited to a couple of
storms and not more widespread, as the modest upward vertical
motion will be competing against some capping for elevated
parcels.

.SHORT TERM...
(Issued 317 PM CDT Sun Sep 12 2021)

Tonight through Monday night:

A surface cold front slid down through southern WI today and is
currently near the WI/IL border. There are a lot of low clouds
associated with the low level convergence in the vicinity of the
front. Just above the clouds, we have a pretty significant dry
layer, and then moisture at and above 8000 ft, in the mid levels.

We have a mesovortex feature rolling across central WI this
afternoon and there are signs of another one in central to
northeast Iowa (RAP 700-400mb differential vorticity advection and
satellite/radar trends). There is also some 700mb frontogenesis
near the MN/IA border into central WI that is helping to support
the ongoing elevated showers and potential isolated
thunderstorms. The RAP soundings are suggesting that our cap could
break down a little for this evening and allow for about 1000 j/kg
of elevated CAPE. With strong shear on the north side of the
front and the next mesovortex/subtle shortwave moving into our
area this evening, we could see an uptick in thunderstorm
activity. Our only isolated severe threat would be hail. Our
marginal risk for severe by SPC is still justified.

There is really no strong low level jet in our area today, but a
westerly component points into southern WI later tonight. There
should be another shortwave moving through the WI/IL border area
overnight, so this should support more widespread showers and
isolated thunderstorms into Monday morning. Again, hail would be
our main threat but anything organized could give a damaging wind
gust or two.

By late Monday morning, we will lose our shortwave energy and
better forcing, so showers should diminish. However, a stronger
low level jet will start making its way toward south central WI
later Monday afternoon into the evening as low pressure develops
over southeast MN and tracks into Upper Michigan Monday night.
This will give our stalled frontal boundary a push northward
Monday night. There is a good chance for storms near the low in
central and northern WI Monday night, but southern WI has a chance
too due to the warm frontal boundary.

.LONG TERM...
(Issued 317 PM CDT Sun Sep 12 2021)

Tuesday through Sunday:

A cold front will slowly move across srn WI on Tue while the
attendant shortwave trough moves away across the nrn Great Lakes.
There a couple weak shortwave troughs that will move into the area
from the west however, so will maintain 20-40 PoPs for Tue-Tue nt.
High pressure will then move across the region for Wed-Wed eve
with pleasant conditions expected.

The high will shift ewd for Wed which will begin a prolonged
period of sly winds and warm advection into the weekend. This
coincides with a developing wswly jet pattern from the Pacific NW
toward Hudson Bay. Above normal temps and humidity will prevail
during this time with only slight chances of showers and storms
for Thu nt-Fri nt.

.AVIATION...
(Issued 940 PM CDT Sun Sep 12 2021)

Scattered showers should continue to move east through the area
overnight into Monday morning. Some thunderstorms may develop as
well during this time, with a few possibly producing hail. Modest
northeast to east winds overnight will become east on Monday. May
see some light fog develop overnight into early Monday morning as
well, especially in areas that receive rainfall. Ceilings should
gradually lower below 2000 feet AGL overnight into Monday morning
across most area terminals, before rising above 3000 feet AGL by
middle afternoon.

More scattered shower and some thunderstorm activity may develop
again Monday afternoon and early evening, before a warm front
moves north through the area. Again, a few storms may produce
hail. Winds should shift to the south to southwest and become
gusty later Monday evening and overnight. Some low level wind
shear conditions may develop Monday night, but will leave out of
TAFs for now.

.MARINE...
(Issued 317 PM CDT Sun Sep 12 2021)

A front continued to slide down Lake Michigan today and it will
stall over the far southern part tonight. Expect northeast winds
on the north side of this front and southerly winds on the south
side. The front will remain over the southern tip of Lake Michigan
on Monday and then lift back northward Monday night. Expect gusty
southerly winds on Tuesday.

.BEACHES...
(Updated 940 PM CDT Sun Sep 12 2021)

Winds and waves have subsided enough to allow for a low swim risk
to return to Lake Michigan beaches.
