What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this winter storm warning 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 winter storm warning went out at Apr 1, 10:48 PM CDT, 4 hours 53 minutes earlier. Its key messages:

  • Light snow mainly south of Hwy 29 will diminish by late this evening. Additional minor accumulations up to an inch, especially on grassy surfaces.
  • Confidence is increasing for significant accumulating snow from Tuesday afternoon into Wednesday morning (50% or greater in a winter storm). The highest snowfall amounts will be east of a line from Wautoma to Pembine where 6 inches or more of snow is possible. High end amounts could reach up to a foot over the lakeshore areas. A Winter Storm Watch has been issued.
  • Winds will be on the increase Tuesday afternoon into Tuesday night, with strong gusts expected through Wednesday. Widespread wind gusts up to 30 to 50 mph will be possible during this time. Minor blowing and drifting snow and also sporadic power outages will be possible. Aviation travel could also see delays.
  • The Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning commutes will likely be slow or difficult. Impacts will likely be the highest for the Wednesday morning commute, but slushy and slippery roads will be possible for the Tuesday afternoon commute as well.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 235 PM CDT Mon Apr 1 2024

Short Term...Tonight and Tuesday

The latest RAP analysis and satellite/radar imagery show a
northern stream shortwave moving across northwest Ontario and
northern Minnesota and a deep trough over the Rockies to the
desert Southwest. Confluent flow between these features is
contributing to a fgen band of precip lifting northeast into
central Wisconsin and the Fox Valley. Despite surface temps in the
upper 30s to lower 40s and dewpoints in the 20s, surface wet bulb
temps are in the middle 30s, so not out of the question for a
little snow to mix in with the rain. Far northern WI is more
entrenched in the drier air (dewpoint depressions 15-20F) and
therefore should remain dry through the afternoon.

Looking upstream, low pressure is developing over the central
Plains with a large trough stretching from the Rockies to the
desert Southwest. Forecast concerns revolve around precip and
accumulation trends tonight, followed by heavy precip on Tuesday.

Tonight...The fgen band of light precip will continue through the
evening before diminishing overnight over central to east-central
WI. Most precip should remain south of a Mosinee to Green Bay
line. As boundary layer temps cool, more snow will be mixing in
with the precip through the evening that could result in light
accumulations on grassy surfaces before the precip trails off. Northern
WI will likely remain dry through the night. Low temps in the mid
20s to mid 30s.

Tuesday...After a lull in the precip for part of the morning,
precipitation is expected to surge northeast as surface low
pressure rapidly intensifies as it moves northeast towards
southern Lake Michigan. Strong dynamics will accompany the
associated shortwave in addition to upper divergence and mid-level
fgen. Arrival of the strong forcing and associated lift will lead
to an area of heavy precip moving into the area from southwest to
northeast from late morning through the afternoon, though timing
of the heavier precip may shift yet.

The heaviest precip (0.25" to 0.50") is likely to occur from the
Fox Valley and Bayshore to the Lakeshore in the afternoon. There
are some indications that a secondary heavy precip axis will develop
in the afternoon over central to north-central WI in a 700-500mb
fgen band, though confidence in those amounts is lower than
further east over northeast WI.

In general, confidence is only low to medium with precip amounts
as CAM output is generally lower than NWP output from the
ECMWF/GFS/NAM/RAP. The latter models have shown a consistent
slower and deep trend of the 500mb and surface low and have chosen
to stick with the more consistent guidance.

Another relatively uncertain aspect is ptype and associated
impacts. Lowered surface temperatures within the precipitation to
generate more snow in the forecast. Temperatures will likely be in
the mid 30s for much of the day, which leads to the possibility of
a rain snow mix. This may be more true within lighter precip
rates. However, when the heavier precip rates move through in the
afternoon, concern is precip will trend over to snow with higher
accumulations than forecast (1-3") through the end of the
afternoon. The higher precip rates will likely result in more
impacts as the heavy snow overwhelms the warm ground temps. This
should lead to higher impacts on area roads for the evening
commute than earlier in the day.

Winds will also be increasing through the day, but the heavy, wet
snow will limit the blowing and drifting somewhat. Some
blowing/drifting appears possible from the Fox Valley to the
Lakeshore by late afternoon.

Putting it together, will issue a Winter Storm Watch from 1 pm Tue
through 1 pm Wed from Waushara to northern Marinette counties to
the Lakeshore.

Long Term...Tuesday Night Through Monday

NWP models and probabilistic forecasts continue to ramp up
snowfall amounts for Tuesday night through Wednesday as a
deepening low tracks towards the central Great Lakes then
retrogrades back towards Lake Michigan. Moisture and lift with
this system are impressive, with abundant frontogenesis in the
dendritic growth zone for a prolonged period of time likely
producing snowfall rates of 1 to 2 inches per hour at times.
There will also likely be a mesoscale band setting up at some
point across east-central Wisconsin or the lakeshore, which could
enhance snowfall amounts even further to 2 to 3 inches per hour.
A tight pressure gradient will cause northerly winds to gust to 30
to 50 mph at times in addition to the moderate to heavy snow,
likely reducing visibilities significantly. The highest impacted
areas will be the eastern half of the cwa from roughly Wautoma to
Pembine where heavy snow and gusty winds will cause Winter Storm
conditions Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. Given the
potential for Winter Storm conditions across this area (50% or
greater) will issue a Winter Storm Watch through early Wednesday
afternoon.

Although the heaviest snow will be over by Wednesday afternoon,
precipitation will linger across the area through Thursday morning
as the low slowly pulls away from the region. A tight pressure
gradient will remain across the western Great Lakes during this
period, with windy conditions remaining through Thursday.
Additional snowfall amounts during this period will be on the
lower side, with amounts of an inch or two possible at times
across the north, and less than an inch elsewhere.

High pressure will then build in behind the departing low late in
the week, with dry weather expected to last into the weekend as
the high slowly drifts through the area. The next chance for
precipitation comes next Monday when a slow moving low from the
northern Plains approaches the area from the west.

&&

.AVIATION...for 06Z TAF Issuance
Issued at 1047 PM CDT Mon Apr 1 2024

Where snow was earlier, conditions have improved late this
evening. Expect conditions to drop back to mainly MVFR overnight
through daybreak on Tuesday. There may some very light snow or
rain/snow at times but no impact to visibility is expected.

Ahead of a strong cyclone, precip will quickly surge from
southeast to northeast across the region on Tuesday morning.
Flight conditions will deteriorate in this precip to IFR or
possibly LIFR in a mix of rain and snow. By late afternoon the
primary ptype looks to become snow at even the north-central
terminals with widespread IFR to LIFR conditions expected.
Moderate to heavy snow with blowing and drifting snow will carry
into Tuesday night with widespread LIFR conditions. Could also see
some airports near minimums by this time, especially GRB, ATW and
MTW.

As deepening low wraps up over the central Great Lakes, sfc winds
will increase with gusts over 25-30 kts by Tuesday evening. Winds
aloft will be strong enough to also support LLWS at most of the
TAF sites.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 235 PM CDT Mon Apr 1 2024

A rapidly deepening low pressure system approaching the central
Great Lakes region will cause a tight pressure gradient across the
western Great Lakes region Tuesday night into Wednesday night.
Northerly winds will gust to 35 to 45 knots at times as this low
slowly moves through the central Great Lakes, providing for a
prolonged period of high winds from Tuesday night into Wednesday
night. Given the potential for gale force winds, issued a Gale
Watch for the nearshore and bay of Green bay during this period.
