UPDATE. (Issued 904 AM CST Mon Mar 8 2021)
Have increased temperatures by a couple of degrees to account for our warm start and the abundant sunshine. Currently have areas near the Illinois state line and those locations south and west of Madison reaching 60, with mid to upper 50s elsewhere. Will keep an eye on hourly temp trends through the morning . it's possible that highs may need to come up by another few degrees in some areas.

SHORT TERM. (Issued 354 AM CST Mon Mar 8 2021)
Today and Tonight:
Mid level clouds are hanging on across southern WI early this morning. These are associated with a weak mid-level trough and 850mb warm air advection, and should sag southeast the trough moves through, but confidence is not high about when they will clear far southern WI. Clouds will impact how quickly we can warm into the lower to mid 50s today. They could also prevent southwest WI from reaching the upper 50s as forecast. Winds will gradually shift to the west and decrease this afternoon as clouds clear.
Temperatures will cool into the mid 30s tonight. With dewpoints in the lower 30s and light/variable winds, we could see some patchy fog develop, especially in low spots.

LONG TERM. (Issued 354 AM CST Mon Mar 8 2021)
Tuesday through Sunday:
Southerly winds and warm air advection will kick in once again by midday Tuesday. We are headed up to around 60 for highs. Cloud cover is uncertain, but there should be periods of cloudy skies with that strong warm air advection. Winds will be screaming out of the southwest between 1000 and 5000 ft, but the strong inversion should keep our gusts tame. These strong low level winds will occur off and on through Wednesday night in the warm sector. Our best chance for higher wind gusts should be Wednesday afternoon/evening. Still some uncertainty about how dry/mixy we can get.
With this warm air advection will come a chance of showers and elevated/isolated thunderstorms early Wednesday morning through Wednesday night as surface low pressure tracks from Kansas through central Wisconsin.
The cold front will cut off the rain chances on Thursday, but there is still uncertainty about when that will occur and whether another weak wave of precip will ride up the front and clip southern WI before it can all shift into IL. We probably looking at a storm total between a half inch and an inch with this event. We will watch for the river flooding potential since soil moisture is fairly high and runoff is expected. Several could rise to bankfull and possibly minor flood stage within the next week.
Quiet and cooler weather is expected for the weekend. We are watching the potential for a high-moisture low pressure system to track through the Midwest and Great Lakes Monday into Tuesday.

AVIATION. (Issued 904 AM CST Mon Mar 8 2021)
VFR is expected across the area today, with mostly clear skies. Winds will be light from the west.
Heading into tonight, light winds, clear skies, and plenty of remnant low level moisture may result in some patchy ground fog in some areas. This likely won't be too widespread, but where it does develop, expect IFR.
Boxell
MARINE. (Issued 354 AM CST Mon Mar 8 2021)
There could be a few southwest wind gusts up to 25 kt today in far southeast WI that could impact nearshore waters closest to shore. Held off with the Small Craft Advisory at this time, but there is one in effect to our south where better mixing is possible.
Southerly winds will ramp up again Tuesday and especially Wednesday. A Small Craft Advisory is looking likely for Wednesday. A few gale force gusts are possible for the nearshore areas and also the open lake on Wednesday as well.
