12/16/2019 NOAA is having trouble with requests that include wind gusts. I am posting graphs without wind gusts until it gets fixed. 10/9/2019 Updated the Marine Zones. 9/4/2019 Fixed the weather maps due to NOAA moving them. 7/25/2019 New feature in the Airports section gives a link to 5 minute updates for data reports. |

Updated aviation portion for 12Z TAF issuance
SHORT TERM. Today . Tonight . and Saturday Issued at 338 AM CDT Fri Aug 14 2020
A quiet night is in progress over northeast WI, with high pressure at the surface and upper ridging aloft. Under partly cloudy skies, temperatures ranged from the upper 50s to middle 60s. A weakening line of thunderstorms was moving through northeast MN, and nearing the Duluth vicinity.
Meso-models suggest that the line of thunderstorms will continue to weaken as it moves into northwest WI, and should fall apart before reaching north central WI. Some debris clouds will likely impact the northwest part of the area early, followed by plenty of sunshine. High temperatures should warm into the 80s, except middle to upper 70s near Lake Michigan due to southeast winds.
Thunderstorms will redevelop over MN this afternoon, in association with an unstable air mass and approaching cold front. The storms will move through western WI this evening, then reach north central and central WI toward midnight. Models suggest that the convection will be weakening as it arrives in GRB CWA, so the main severe threat should remain to our west. The cold front will move through north central and central WI overnight, and bring a chance of storms to areas west of the Fox Valley and bayshore/ lakeshore by morning. Lows will drop into the upper 50s far west, and lower to middle 60s over the rest of the region.
The cold front will shift through eastern WI Saturday morning, and reach the lakeshore by midday. The quicker frontal passage will lower the risk of severe weather, as the atmosphere will not have much time to destabilize. SPC has shifted the Marginal Risk of severe storms to our east, and this looks good. Have adjusted pops to focus most of the precipitation chances during the morning, with only a small chance lingering over the far east into the early afternoon. Temperatures will be a little cooler, ranging from the lower to middle 70s northwest to the upper 70s to around 80 east. Northwest winds will gust to around 20 mph in the wake of the frontal passage.
LONG TERM. Saturday Night Through Thursday Issued at 338 AM CDT Fri Aug 14 2020
The long term forecast features a few chances of precip to contend with as northwest flow will dominate the western Great Lakes from Saturday night through the middle of next week. Upper pattern starts to flatten toward the end of next week. Temps will start off near/above normal on Sunday, then fall below normal for the start of the week, then return to near/above normal late in the week.
Saturday night into Sunday . with the faster frontal passage expected, all of the shower/storm activity associated with the front should be east of the area by 00z Sunday. A secondary shortwave, jet max, and weak surface boundary will drop into northern WI late Saturday into Sunday morning, bringing chances for mainly showers, especially across northern WI. Increased POPs and cloud cover during this period. Bumped up low temps slightly do to the expected cloud cover spreading into the area. Weak cold air advection, showers/clouds could hold temps down across portions of the area (especially north), but 850mb temps of 12-13C support highs in the upper 70s to around 80. Northwest winds are expected to gust up to around 25 mph as well.
Rest of the extended . surface high pressure builds into the western Great Lakes bringing mainly dry weather to the area Sunday night into Tuesday. Aloft, a couple weak shortwaves will ride through the northwest flow, which could bring some extra cloud cover and possibly even some precip chances. This is especially the case on Tuesday night into Wednesday, as models trending toward bringing a more potent shortwave and surface boundary across the area. A model blend only brings some slight chance POPs across northern WI, but chances may have to be increased and expanded. Surface high pressure expands across the area on Thursday, along with weak ridging aloft, bringing dry weather. Then as the pattern flattens and becomes more zonal, a fast moving shortwave, low pressure system and cold front will bring shower/storm chances toward the end of the week.
AVIATION. for 12Z TAF Issuance Issued at 631 AM CDT Fri Aug 14 2020
Patchy fog will mix out early this morning, followed by VFR conditions until later tonight. South winds will gust to 15-17 knots across north central and central WI this afternoon. A cold front will bring a chance of showers and thunderstorms to north central and central WI after midnight tonight, so have added a mention of thunderstorms at the western TAF sites. There is a chance of LLWS over far north central WI ahead of the cold front tonight, but confidence is too low to add to the RHI TAF site at this time.
GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES. NONE.
