UPDATE
Issued 930 PM CDT Mon Mar 18 2024
No major changes to the forecast this evening. Mid-level clouds associated with 850hPa WAA have begun to make their way into southern Wisconsin which may keep low temperatures a few degrees warmer overnight, especially in areas closer to central Wisconsin.
Otherwise, dry and windy conditions are still expected on Tuesday.

SHORT TERM
Issued 421 PM CDT Mon Mar 18 2024
Tonight through Wednesday:
Westerly winds will diminish into this evening before shifting to southwesterly and increasing late tonight ahead of a low pressure system progressing across southern Ontario late tonight into Thursday morning. Expect lows in the upper 20s to near 30 degrees tonight. A brief period of cloud cover associated with the initiation of WAA late tonight may keep temperatures from falling into the 20s in central Wisconsin.
Tuesday morning, dry and gusty conditions are expected, with a cold front draped south of the low pressure system progressing through southern Wisconsin Tuesday afternoon and shifting winds northwesterly. Generally expecting dry and windy conditions, with dewpoint depressions as the main forecast challenge. A pocket of subsiding moist air riding along the back side of the exiting shortwave and mixing heights rising to near 5000 ft ahead of the cold front may result in dewpoint temperatures rising to the upper 20s. On the other hand, dewpoint temperatures in the lower teens are expected to advect into the area and may keep moisture levels lower than modeling indicates during peak mixing hours. The main impact of this concern is the relative humidity values falling into the 20 percent range if dry conditions prevail, which could lead to fire weather concerns. Expect high temperatures in the upper 40s to near 50 degrees.
Tuesday night, clear skies and northwesterly winds will lead to lows in the lower 20s.
Wednesday, northwesterly winds and mixing heights up to 5000 ft will bring in drier and cooler air, with highs in the mid-30s.
Relative humidity values may fall to near 20 percent in southwestern Wisconsin.

LONG TERM
Issued 421 PM CDT Mon Mar 18 2024
Wednesday night through Monday:
After a quiet and cool Wednesday night and Thursday, the pattern shifts to become more active Thursday night through the weekend.
The first system to keep an eye on is a CAA driven trough propagating southward through southern Wisconsin Thursday night into Friday. The GFS appears to be the outlier and produces a closed low, leading to a deformation band and potentially higher precipitation amounts. Meanwhile, the ECMWF and Canadian keep the trough open with much less precipitation. For the time being, confidence remains in accumulating snowfall during the morning commute on Friday, with snow likely (70 to 90 percent chance) throughout the overnight hours Thursday into early Friday morning. Snow tapers off through Friday.
The next system in the long range develops Saturday, with model discrepancy remaining quite high. GFS deepens the previous system off the Gulf Stream and drags an arctic airmass into Wisconsin ahead of the next system, leading to deep, cold air and snow potential along the warm front. However, ECMWF and Canadian favor a less intense Atlantic system and therefore less cold air in place ahead of the warm frontal feature. This would lead to more of a rainfall concern. All solutions remain consistent with a blocking Greenland high, leading to a persistent precipitation pattern through early next week.

Mid-level ceilings around 10kft associated with WAA have begun to make their way into southern Wisconsin this evening. These clouds are expected to mostly dissipate by Tuesday morning, with diurnal cumulus around 5kft then expected to develop Tuesday afternoon.
However, VFR conditions will prevail throughout the TAF period.
Low level wind shear is expected at MSN and JVL late tonight into Tuesday morning as 850hPa winds of 40-45KT move through southwestern Wisconsin. Gusty northwesterly winds of around 25KT associated with boundary layer mixing of these higher wind speeds and a cold front progressing through Wisconsin will impact all sites on Tuesday. Winds will then decelerate Tuesday night.

Northwesterly winds will continue to slowly diminish through this afternoon, shifting to become westerly this evening and increasing overnight as high pressure builds southward into the Lower Mississippi Valley and low pressure moves southeastward across southern Ontario. A few gusts may approach gale force across the southern half of the lake Tuesday morning. Winds will shift to northwesterly Tuesday afternoon as an associated cold front sinks southeast across the lake. A Small Craft Advisory is in effect early Tuesday morning through Tuesday evening due to elevated winds. Building high pressure in the northern Great Plains may result in a few gales in the northern half of the lake Wednesday as the low exits.
Winds will remain northwesterly through Wednesday, slowly diminishing into Thursday.
