Forecast discussion for routine afternoon forecast issuance

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Thunderstorms are possible into tonight. A few storms may
   become strong to severe into the evening. However, heavy
   rainfall and localized flooding will be the main concern as
   storms will be slow moving.

 - Above normal temperatures continue through Saturday. A cold
   front will then move through the area Saturday night into
   Sunday morning, returning temperatures closer to normal early
   next week.

 - Storm chances will return at times from Saturday night through
   Tuesday. It is possible that a MCS moves across the southern
   half of Wisconsin Monday night into early Tuesday.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 246 PM CDT Thu Aug 1 2024

Short Term...Tonight and Friday

An upper low and associated surface system will move across southern
Wisconsin into northern Illinois and northern Indiana tonight,
and produce slow moving lines of thunderstorms with flood potential,
and some discrete storms which could produce large hail and strong
winds. The flood threat is greatest across central and portions
of east central Wisconsin. The activity will end from northwest to
southeast overnight, with some clearing possible by daybreak.
Lows will 5 to 10 degrees above normal.

Drier air will arrive Friday as upper ridging arrives from the
northern Plains, and a weak surface high builds in. Temperatures
will actually be warmer Friday than today due to increased sunshine,
a northwest downslope wind and lower surface dewpoints. This will
add up to a pretty hot day, with heat indices in the middle 80s
to low 90s.

Long Term...Friday Night Through Thursday

Broad and strong H5 ridge over the southwest CONUS gradually will
be suppressed due to larger scale troughing developing from Hudson
Bay toward the Great Lakes and into eastern Canada. Eventually
this will bring cooler and less humid conditions to the western
Great Lakes late this weekend into much of next week. Though the
weekend starts off dry, this pattern will also bring a return to
unsettled weather with chances for showers and thunderstorms
Sunday through early next week. There will be some severe potential
and as has been a common theme this summer, there is a potential
for excessive rainfall at times.

For Friday night and Saturday, dry conditions as high pressure
prevails. Late in the day Saturday, a cold front will approach
from the northwest. This front will drift across the area into
Sunday. Greatest risk for severe Saturday night will be to the
west, but on Sunday with the front across the area and ample
shear over 35 kts, even weaker instability toward 1000/kg could be
sufficient to support at least an isolated severe potential during
peak heating. This front will be what finally beats the heat and
humidity back to the south and southwest. Highs on Saturday will
reach the upper 80s to near 90, but with mostly lower 60s dewpoints,
heat index values will mainly stay 90 or lower.

Questions arise Sunday night into Monday on how far south the
front will sink. There is decent agreement now from the Canadian,
GFS and ECMWF that there could be mainly dry conditions to the
area later Sunday night into Monday. Not a lot of change in models
showing potential MCS over parts of WI on Monday night. This will
be occurring within strong belt of westerlies on the northeast
edge of higher MUCAPE. Effective shear over 40 kts more than
sufficient for severe. Main question is where will the MCS track.
ECMWF and Canadian favor southern half of WI whereas the GFS still
is farther north and would impact most of the GRB forecast area.

Dry, cooler and less humid conditions settle in behind the system
for Tuesday. It remains cooler Wednesday and Thursday, but at
least small chances of rain will also return, especially later
Wednesday into Thursday.

clear skies and good flying weather Thursday.
