UPDATE. (Issued 850 PM CDT Mon Apr 19 2021)
Mid level clouds remain in place across the region this evening, with a cold and steady northwest breeze. Temperatures at this hour have fallen into the upper 30s to around 40 in most areas, and still look to be on track to fall into the upper 20s to low 30s by morning.

SHORT TERM. (Issued 210 PM CDT Mon Apr 19 2021)
Tonight:
Cloud cover continues to wrap in with cold advection regime. Mid level flow remains cyclonic. Guidance not suggesting much clearing though some small breaks here and there in northern WI into MN. The RAP shows more holes evolving later this evening especially across the northern cwa with clouds from the next system potentially keeping the south under a cloud cover longer. Pressure gradient proggd to weaken with winds easing. Expecting chilly lows in the mid 20s to low 30s for lows across the area though any persistent cloud cover will keep temps from falling off too much.
Tuesday and Tuesday night:
Cyclonic flow amplifies across the area this period. The system snow associated with the low passing well to our south continues to look like it will largely miss us to the south. However, with indications of weak surface troughing taking shape and some steep lapse rates we could see some rain or snow showers evolve in this pattern. In addition marginal delta t values combined with an onshore flow may lead to some lake effect potential as well. The trough lingers into Tuesday night and will keep some small pops going in the southeast with models generating some very light qpf with a continued signal for higher 925-700 millibar RH values.

LONG TERM. (Issued 210 PM CDT Mon Apr 19 2021)
Wednesday through Monday:
A shortwave trough will move through Wednesday bringing chances for snow showers in the morning and transitioning to rain showers in the afternoon. Looking at soundings there is about 50 J/kg of CAPE to work with and with cold air aloft we could see some graupel mixing in with the rain during the afternoon. Not expecting anything widespread and amounts should remain light. Temperatures will drop below freezing for most of the area Wednesday night into Thursday and could damage any sensitive vegetation.
A ridge moves in Thursday bringing a quiet day weatherwise for the week, but we'll see a couple more troughs move through the area Friday and Saturday, with Saturday looking to be the stronger system out of the two. Still not expecting much in the way of rain amounts, so we'll continue the below normal precipitation trend into next week.
RAH
AVIATION. (Issued 850 PM CDT Mon Apr 19 2021)
VFR ceilings will likely remain in place overnight, with light but steady northwest winds. No precipitation is expected overnight.
VFR will continue to prevail on Tuesday. Some light rain or rain/snow showers will be possible across far southern Wisconsin. In addition, spotty rain/snow shower activity is possible further north; this activity will be more scattered in nature. Winds will remain from the northwest.
Boxell
MARINE. (Issued 210 PM CDT Mon Apr 19 2021)
Gusty northwest winds will continue in the wake of the departed cold front, but slacken off this evening. Some gusts may get close or briefly touch small craft criteria in the nearshore areas. Meanwhile will keep the Gale Warning going in the far north due to proximity of that area to the tighter pressure gradient with departed low.

MKX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES. WI . None. LM . Gale Warning . LMZ261-LMZ362 until 5 AM Tuesday.
