Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Green Bay WI 146 PM CDT Wed Jun 24 2026 Forecast discussion for routine afternoon forecast issuance .KEY MESSAGES... - Chances for showers and storms at times through Thursday afternoon. Some of the storms this afternoon and evening may become severe, producing large hail and damaging winds. - Near to below normal temperatures rest of this week, trending above normal and humid by early next week. Periodic chances for thunderstorms are also possible early next week, with the potential for severe weather. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 146 PM CDT Wed Jun 24 2026 Precipitation/Thunder Chances...Scattered low clouds prevailed across the region early this afternoon ahead of an impending surface low and it's weak cold front. Decent destabilization has already occurred over western WI early this afternoon with SBCAPE of 1500- 2000 J/kg, paired with 30-40 of effective bulk shear across central WI. As a result, isolated storms have developed in portions of northern WI and west-central WI, some of which have already had reports of severe hail. Generally, scattered to numerous showers and storms are anticipated this afternoon and evening, ending soon after sunset with the loss of diurnal heating. SBCAPE of 1500-2000 J/kg and deep-layer shear of 30-40 kts is anticipated during this time, leading to updraft organization producing a mix of multicells, supercells, and perhaps some splitting cells, aiding in a risk of large hail up to 1.50 inches and damaging winds up to 60 mph. There is also a very low risk for spin ups or funnel clouds due to the proximity to the surface low and steeper low-level lapse rates, mainly in central and north-central WI. As the surface low and a mid-level trough move over MI on Thursday, additional isolated showers and storms are anticipated Thursday afternoon into the early evening, aided by up to 500 J/kg of CAPE. However, no severe weather is expected. Models continue to indicate a stark pattern change occurring this weekend with an upper-level ridge building over the area before breaking down sometime during the middle of next week. This would bring more summer-like conditions to the area with increasing Gulf moisture and potential ridge riders resulting in thunderstorms at times, including possible severe storms at times. Will continue to watch how this pattern change evolves over the coming days for any impactful weather. At this point, the main takeaway is to plan on a much more active weather pattern developing, with storm potential not tied exclusively to peak heating of the day. Fog Potential...Following the showers and storms this afternoon and evening, some fog could occur late tonight, with best chances of sharply reduced visibility over northern WI and maybe closer to Lake Michigan. Agreement on this is not great though. Temperatures...Below normal temperatures in the low to mid 70s and comfortable humidity levels will continue through Friday. Temperatures then gradually warm to normal on Saturday and above normal on Sunday through early next week into the upper 80s to mid 90s due to the ridging pattern change. In addition to the much warmer temperatures, dew points will also rise into the low to possible mid 70s by Monday. If this pattern pans out, we could be looking at a couple day stretch of heat-related impacts occurring. This is already being highlighted with the NWS HeatRisk on Monday with the Major (level 3 of 4) category and Major with some Extreme (level 4 of 4) category on Tuesday. && .AVIATION...for 18Z TAF Issuance Issued at 113 PM CDT Wed Jun 24 2026 Scattered to broken MVFR/low-end VFR cigs prevailed across the region early this afternoon as isolated showers and storms began to develop in portions of north-central and far northeast WI. The isolated showers and storms will become more scattered in coverage as the afternoon goes on and becoming less in coverage as the sunsets. Decided to include TSRA with TEMPO groups at all TAF sites when confidence is greatest. Otherwise, the showers are anticipated to end between 02-06z Thu. Some stronger storms may occur this afternoon and evening with hail and gusty winds being the main threats. MVFR cigs/vsbys will also accompany the stronger storms. Cigs are anticipated to drop to MVFR and IFR overnight into Thursday morning. Fog may also develop late tonight across north-central and far northeast WI, and along the lakeshore, lifting by 12z Thu. && .GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
