DISCUSSION

Short Term...Tonight and Friday

Precipitation chances continue tonight, with much drier conditions expected on Friday.

A large area of showers associated with strong H8 WAA and a short-wave trough will continue to lift north out of the region late this afternoon. Low pressure over NE IA with lift northeast into the forecast area this evening, and drag a weak cold front through the region overnight. Showers, abundant cloud cover and east winds have combined to maintain a stable air mass over GRB CWA this afternoon, though weak elevated instability (H8 LI's of 0 to -2 C) will lift into the region this evening then shift east as the cold front shifts east later tonight. Scattered showers and a few storms are expected to develop ahead of the front, though the general trend is for a less rainy night than was earlier expected. Lows tonight will be in the 40s and lower 50s.

On Friday, high pressure and a much drier air mass will move into the forecast area. Deep mixing will promote warm temperatures in the upper 60s to middle 70s, west winds gusting to 20 to 30 mph (strongest in northern WI) and low relative humidity in the sandy soil areas. Today's rain should mitigate any fire weather concerns.

Long Term...Friday Night Through Thursday

Dry high pressure will linger through Friday night, but a weak inverted surface trough and short-wave will bring a chance of showers on Saturday and Saturday evening. This is looking like a light precipitation event at this time.

High pressure moves back into the region Sunday into Monday, with another round of mild temperatures and low humidity expected.

A deep upper level low over the Northern Plains will lift potent short-wave energy into the western Great Lakes late Monday night through Tuesday night, bringing good potential for a round or two of showers and storms. The remnants of this system will linger near the region late in the week, with smaller chances of showers and storms.
