What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Green Bay, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at May 30, 10:45 PM CDT, 1 hour 40 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 30, 10:45 PM CDT, 1 hour 40 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Green Bay WI 1045 PM CDT Mon May 30 2022 Updated aviation portion for 06Z TAF issuance .SHORT TERM...Tonight and Tuesday Issued at 401 PM CDT Mon May 30 2022 The main focus from this forecast period revolves around a cold frontal passage on Tuesday that may produce isolated strong storms in east-central WI and portions of far northeast WI during the afternoon into the evening. A nearly vertically stacked system will track north/northeast from South Dakota this evening into southwestern Ontario by Tuesday evening. While this system will produce severe weather in Minnesota this evening, conditions are expected to remain dry across the forecast area for the first portion of the evening. Closer to midnight, CAMs continue to show remnants of a surface boundary, generated from the convection in Minnesota, producing a very broken line of showers and thunderstorms. As the boundary reaches central and north-central WI, it will experience a loss in low- level moisture. Accounted for these showers and thunderstorms with slight chance PoPs after midnight into early Tuesday morning for portions of central and north-central WI. Even if the boundary doesn't generate precipitation, it will create cloud cover that will linger and spread across the forecast area into Tuesday morning. This cloud cover will cause a destabilization of the atmosphere into Tuesday afternoon ahead of the main system's cold front, which was previously forecast to be the lifting mechanism for convective initiation. Therefore, by the time the cold front sweeps across the forecast area during the afternoon, there appears to be enough destabilization to prevent strong to severe storms in the forecast area. However, if there is any clearing, especially in east-central and far northeast WI, the cold front would be able to tap into the unstable atmosphere and produce isolated strong to severe storms capable of hail and damaging winds. As a result, agree with SPC's Day 2 afternoon update to remove the slight risk and push the marginal risk further east to only include east-central and far northeast WI. A persistent south to southwest LLJ of 40 to 50 kts will continue to lift warm, moist air across the forecast area tonight into Tuesday, before the cold front arrives. This will allow for another warm night with low temperatures mainly in the middle to upper 60s away from the lake, and readings in the upper 50s to low 60s along the lake. For Tuesday, due to the lingering cloud cover, lowered afternoon high temperatures by a few degrees, but above normal temperatures are still expected with readings mainly in the low to middle 80s away from the lake, and 70s along the lake. .LONG TERM...Tuesday Night Through Monday Issued at 401 PM CDT Mon May 30 2022 Strong to severe storms may linger across the eastern cwa Tuesday evening as a cold front sweeps through the area. The weather is expected to be dry once this front exits stage right for the rest of Tuesday evening and into the overnight hours. The cold front will usher in a cooler airmass, with temperatures falling into the middle to upper 40s across the north and lower to middle 50s across east-central Wisconsin. High pressure is expected to keep the weather mainly dry for the middle to late part of the work week, with temperatures falling to around normal levels for this time of year. The exception may be Thursday afternoon when a mid level shortwave tracks through the western Great Lakes with modest MUCAPE values of a few hundred J/kg. Abundant mid level dry air may inhibit convection Thursday afternoon; therefore, there is only a slight chance for showers or thunderstorms Thursday afternoon. The pattern becomes more active during the weekend and into the early part of next week as a series of disturbances track through the western Great Lakes region. Given the lack of strong forcing and the main upper low well to the north, it is difficult to pinpoint exact wet and dry periods this far out. Therefore will side with the NBM POPs for this period. Temperatures during this period look to continue their trend of around normal for this time of year. && .AVIATION...for 06Z TAF Issuance Issued at 1045 PM CDT Mon May 30 2022 South winds of 45 knots around 2000 ft will create low level wind shear overnight. There is a slight chance of showers or thunderstorms late tonight across central and northcentral Wisconsin. Otherwise VFR conditions and high clouds are expected. A cold front will move across the area Tuesday, with a chance of showers or thunderstorms. VFR conditions are likely outside of any convective activity. && .GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
