.SHORT TERM...
Issued 400 PM CDT Sun Jul 14 2024

Tonight through Monday night:

The threat of storms this afternoon and evening remain the
primary focus. An MCV moving across northeastern Iowa with
associated upper level shortwave troughing this afternoon will
traverse into southwestern Wisconsin in the next few hours.
Mostly clear skies across southern Wisconsin throughout the day
combined with moist southerly flow out ahead of this feature has
allowed the environment to largely recover from the convection
this morning. Surface based CAPE values in excess of 3000 J/kg
combined with steep low and mid level lapse rates (7 C/km and
8C/km, respectively) and marginal 0-6km shear (25-30KT) will
allow for strong to severe convection to fire across the
southern part of the state.

Initial development will likely be more discrete in nature,
which will lead to the greatest potential for large hail before
storm mode transitions to a more linear feature where damaging
winds and torrential rain will be the primary threats as DCAPE
values near 1000 J/kg and PWATs 1.8-2in of will exist across the
region. The most recent runs of the HRRR take the development
mainly along and south of I-94 which is where the largest
cumulus field currently exists. Given the low level jet set up
across this region as well as the strongest WAA, thinking that
the HRRR may be the best representation of the development
expected this evening. However, storms are possible north of
I-94 given the unstable atmosphere over the state and the
current trajectory of the MCV appearing to have a mostly
eastward component.

After convection passes overnight, clearing skies, abundant
moisture, and warm air over the state, patchy fog will likely
develop before dissipating Monday morning. Heat will remains on
Monday as southerly flow continues to usher WAA and moisture
into southern Wisconsin. Heat indices will approach 100F again,
with areas along the Wisconsin/Illinois border most likely to
see the highest values.

Convection returns Monday afternoon as another MCS feature looks
to move through the region. This system will be accompanied by a
very similar atmosphere to today, although with better 0-6km
shear which would help support stronger updrafts as compared to
today. Damaging winds and torrential rain remain the primary
threats, similar to today. Current CAMs also show a very
similar trajectory to today for this event, although discrepancy
among them leads to uncertainty to the ultimate development of
the system which should become clearer overnight and into
Monday.

.LONG TERM...
Issued 400 PM CDT Sun Jul 14 2024

Tuesday through Sunday:

The rest of the week looks much more quiet than today and
Monday. Upper level ridging across the west and surface high
pressure will build into southern Wisconsin, bringing an end to
our heat and storms. However, a stout upper trough will pivot
through the region on Wednesday which may give us another shot
at some showers and storms, but given plenty of warm, dry air
aloft not thinking that southern Wisconsin will really see much
in the way of precipitation.

.AVIATION...
Issued 400 PM CDT Sun Jul 14 2024

Thunderstorms are expected at all sites this evening, some of
which may be strong to severe. Gusty winds and heavy rain are
the primary threat, although hail may be possible, especially
further west. Still thinking 22-02Z timing for MSN/JVL and
00-04Z timing for MKE/UES/ENW although there has been a trend
towards later convective initiation in recent model runs (pushed
back about 2 hours). Given that there isn't much convection
yet, we may be in store for later convective initiation. Storms
appear to stay generally along and south of I-94, but some
development is possible at SBM, perhaps towards the later parts
of the 00-04Z timeframe.

Clearer skies overnight accompanied by expected rainfall and
warm temperatures should lead to patchy fog development
overnight. Currently thinking generally MVFR conditions across
the sites, although areas that get more clearing/more rainfall
may be at risk for IFR visibilities through about 8-9am.

.MARINE...
Issued 400 PM CDT Sun Jul 14 2024

Winds have shifted to the southwest in response to low pressure
of 29.5 inches over western Ontario. This low will move
northeastward tonight into Monday. Widely scattered storms are
expected over northern portions of Lake Michigan this evening,
with a larger area of showers and storms moving over the southern
half of the lake this evening into the early overnight hours
tonight. Some storms could be severe with gusty winds and large
hail.

A cold front will push southward through Lake Michigan overnight
Monday into early Tuesday morning, shifting winds to
northwesterly. Another round of strong to severe storms is
expected with the passage of the front. Breezy conditions linger
into Tuesday evening before high pressure becomes established.

High pressure moves over the region during the middle to latter
portions of this week, this will result in northerly winds and
quiet weather conditions.
