CONDITIONS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON. A BREAK IN THE STORMS IS
EXPECTED WEDNESDAY EVENING, WITH THE NEXT ROUND OF STORMS EXPECTED

AVIATION
FOR 12Z TAF ISSUANCE
ISSUED AT 636 AM CDT WED SEP 2 2026
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL EXIT NORTHEAST
WI BY 15Z. FAIR WEATHER CUMULUS WILL DEVELOP AROUND 15Z
BETWEEN 2,500 AND 4,000 FEET AND RISE TO 5-6 THOUSAND
FEET LATE THIS AFTERNOON. PATCHY FOG EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT DUE
TO THE COMBINATION OF LIGHT WINDS AND CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY
SKIES. FAIR WEATHER CUMULUS REDEVELOP ON THURSDAY.
FIRE WEATHER
ISSUED AT 229 AM CDT WED SEP 2 2026
NOT AS WARM OR DRY ACROSS THE NORTH COMPARED TO TUESDAY. HIGHS
ACROSS THE NORTH SHOULD CLIMB INTO THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S
WITH MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITY VALUES BETWEEN 45 AND 55 PERCENT.
UNFORTUNATELY, THE FAR NORTH IS LIKELY TO MISS OUT ON THE RAIN
THIS MORNING. HOWEVER, THERE ARE PERIODIC CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS
FROM LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THE WEEKEND. HOPEFULLY ONE OF
THE ROUNDS OF STORMS WILL BRING SOME MUCH NEEDED RAIN.
MOISTURE FROM PRIOR RAINFALL SHOULD KEEP FUELS FROM REACHING
CRITICAL THRESHOLDS. LOOKING FORWARD, EXTREME DROUGHT CONTINUES TO
EXPAND OVER PORTIONS OF NORTHWEST WISCONSIN. WILL CONTINUE TO
MONITOR FIRE WEATHER CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT THE MONTH, ESPECIALLY
AFTER WE GET OUR FIRST FROST/FREEZE.
GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES
NONE.
