The episode as NWS GRB wrote it up.

NWS Green Bay, WI wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 8, 11:33 AM CST, 2 hours 7 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREEN BAY WI 1233 PM CDT MON JUN 8 2015 UPDATED AVIATION PORTION FOR 18Z TAF ISSUANCE .SHORT TERM...TODAY...TONIGHT...AND TUESDAY ISSUED AT 304 AM CDT MON JUN 8 2015 ACTIVE PATTERN FOR THE START OF THE NEW WORK WEEK. RADAR CONTINUES TO SHOW ISOLATED SHOWERS TRACKING OVER THE FORECAST AREA EARLY THIS MORNING. ISOLATED STORMS WERE NOTED LATE EVENING OVER FAR NORTHEAST WISCONSIN BUT HAVE DIMINISHED TO ISOLD SHOWERS WHILE PUSHING TOWARD DOOR COUNTY. ADDITIONAL ISOLATED STORMS EXTENDED FROM EAST CENTRAL WISCONSIN TO WESTERN CENTRAL WISCONSIN. THE SHOWERS AND STORMS WERE ASSOCIATED WITH THE COOL UPPER TROUGH DIGGING INTO THE REGION AND WITH SURFACE DEWPOINTS STILL IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S AND TOTAL TOTALS INCREASING TO THE LOWER 50S BY MORNING. WEAK 850 WAA AHEAD OF A SUBTLE MID LEVEL TROUGH PASSING OVER EARLY THIS MORNING WILL TEND TO KEEP THE ISOLD SHOWERS AND STORMS AROUND...ESPECIALLY OVER CENTRAL AND EAST CENTRAL WI. WHAT BREAK IN PCPN DOES OCCUR THIS MORNING WILL LIKELY BE BRIEF AS THE COOL AND SLIGHTLY DEEPENING UPPER TROUGH DROPS IN. SURFACE HEATING AND SUFFICIENT MOISTURE WITH PWATS OF 1.10 INCHES AND SURFACE DEWPOINTS IN THE 55 TO 60 RANGE WILL LIKELY PRODUCE NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND SCT THUNDERSTORMS TODAY. THE CONVECTION WILL LINGER INTO THIS EVENING UNTIL LOSS OF HEATING AND THE TROUGH SLIPS TO THE EAST. SB AND MU CAPES CLIMB TO AT LEAST 1000 J/KG THIS AFTERNOON FOR MARGINAL RISK OF SEVERE STORMS. HAIL A PRIMARY ISSUE WITH THE WBZ FALLING TO AROUND 8000 FEET THIS AFTERNOON. HEAVIER SHOWERS MAY PRODUCE GUSTY WINDS. UPPER RIDGE AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDING INTO THE AREA TONIGHT INTO TUESDAY WILL BRING A PERIOD OF QUIET WEATHER. ACTIVE PATTERN PICKS UP AGAIN LATER TUESDAY AS A STRONG WAA PATTERN DEVELOPS AHEAD OF A NORTHERN PLAINS/CANADIAN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH. THE 850 TROUGH AXIS IS PROGGED TO REACH EASTERN MINNESOTA LATE IN THE DAY. SHEAR WILL BE ON THE INCREASE AS SOUTHWEST 850 WINDS INTERACT WITH THE INCREASING MID TO UPPER NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT. SPC HAS PLACED MUCH OF NORTHERN AND PARTS OF CENTRAL WISCONSIN IN A DAY 2 SLIGHT RISK FOR SEVERE STORMS...AND LIKELY THE START WILL BE LATE IN THE DAY. .LONG TERM...TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY ISSUED AT 304 AM CDT MON JUN 8 2015 THE LATEST MODEL GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO ADVERTISE A COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS THE REGION TUESDAY NIGHT...AND THE ECMWF IS SLIGHTLY SLOWER THAN MOST SOLUTIONS. WILL PUT MORE WEIGHT ON THE OTHER GUIDANCE. ANY AGREEMENT AMONGST THE MODELS BREAKS DOWN FOR THE NEXT SYSTEM ON THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY. THE GFS IS STRONGER AND QUICKER WITH THE SURFACE LOW THAN THE ECMWF...AND PREFER THE LATTER SOLUTION. TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT...A SHORTWAVE TROUGH WILL MOVE ACROSS ONTARIO AND LAKE SUPERIOR WHILE PUSHING A COLD FRONT ACROSS NORTHERN WISCONSIN ON TUESDAY NIGHT. THOUGH AFTERNOON INSTABILITY WILL LIKELY LEAD TO THE GREATEST COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORMS OVER NORTHERN MINNESOTA AT THE START OF THE EVENING...ELEVATED MOISTURE TRANSPORT COMBINED WITH MODEST CAPE SHOULD CREATE SOME STORMS OVER NORTHERN WISCONSIN AT THE START OF THE PERIOD. THEN THE STORMS OVER NORTHERN MINNESOTA SHOULD ARRIVE BY LATE EVENING OVER N-C WISCONSIN. INSTABILITY WILL BE DIMINISHING RATHER QUICKLY...BUT WIND FIELDS ARE DECENT ALOFT SO A SLIGHT CHANCES LOOKS REASONABLE. THE STORMS WILL ALSO HAVE PLENTIFUL MOISTURE TO WORK WITH SINCE PWATS WILL BE UPWARDS OF 1.5 INCHES. THE MODELS PROJECT SOME STORMS WILL LIKELY SURVIVE INTO EAST-CENTRAL WI LATE TUESDAY NIGHT...BUT THEN DEPART BY THE START OF WEDNESDAY MORNING...SO WILL TAKE OUT PRECIP CHANCES. LESS HUMID CONDITIONS THEN MOVE IN BEHIND THE FRONT FOR WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. NO SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO TEMPS DURING THIS TIME. REST OF THE FORECAST...THE FRONT WILL RETURN NORTHWARD ON THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT TO BRING BACK THUNDERSTORM CHANCES TO THE FORECAST. LOW PRESSURE WILL THEN TRACK ACROSS THE REGION ON FRIDAY WHEN MODELS SHOW A POSSIBLE MCS. HEAVY RAINFALL WOULD BE A SIGNIFICANT THREAT IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR...BUT TOO UNCERTAIN TO DETERMINE SEVERE WEATHER CHANCES. CONDITIONS DRY OUT FOR FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY...THEN A CHANCE OF RAIN RETURNS FOR THE END OF THE WEEKEND. && .AVIATION...FOR 18Z TAF ISSUANCE ISSUED AT 1233 PM CDT MON JUN 8 2015 SHWRS AND TSTMS HAVE BLOSSOMED AS EXPECTED ACROSS NRN WI WITH A SE MOVEMENT. THE ACTIVITY IS DUE TO A COOL POOL ALOFT AND DAYTIME HEATING. SOME OF THE STORMS MAY PRODUCE SMALL HAIL AND BRIEF GUSTY WINDS WITH CIGS/VSBY DROPPING INTO THE MVFR RANGE IN AND NEAR ANY TSTMS. EXPECT THE PCPN TO LINGER INTO EARLY EVENING BEFORE DISSIPATING AROUND SUNSET. VFR CONDITIONS TO RETURN FOR THE BULK OF THE NGT...ALTHO SOME PATCHY LATE NGT FOG MAY REDUCE VSBYS BACK TO MVFR. TUE TO START OFF QUIET...HOWEVER ANOTHER ROUND OF SHWRS AND TSTMS ARE EXPECTED TUE AFTERNOON INTO TUE NGT AS A CDFNT APPROACHES/SWEEPS THRU THE REGION. CIGS/VSBYS COULD ONCE AGAIN BE LIMITED TO MVFR CONDITIONS NEAR ANY TSTMS. && .GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NONE. && SHORT TERM.....TDH LONG TERM......MPC AVIATION.......AK
