THE FIRST SIGNS OF FALL AS TEMPERATURES AS OF MID-AFTERNOON WERE
IN THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 60S UNDER PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES. GUSTY
NORTHWEST OF 10 TO 20 MPH WERE NOTED WITH GUSTS UP TO 25 MPH.
DEWPOINT READINGS ACROSS THE NORTH HAVE FALLEN INTO THE MIDDLE
TO UPPER 30S.
FOR TONIGHT, HIGH PRESSURE WILL SLIDE EASTWARD AND WILL BE
CENTERED ACROSS NORTHEAST WI OVERNIGHT. THE COMBINATION OF CLEAR
SKIES AND LIGHT WINDS WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO PLUMMET
INTO THE 30S OVER NORTHERN WI AND IN SOME SECTIONS OF CENTRAL
WI. A FEW OUR OUR TYPICAL COLD SPOTS MAY DROP TO OR A FEW
DEGREES BELOW FREEZING FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS AROUND SUNRISE.
EXPANDED THE FROST ADVISORY TO INCLUDE LANGLADE, AND NORTHERN
SECTIONS OF MARINETTE AND OCONTO COUNTIES WITH THE AFTERNOON
ISSUANCE.
ATTENTION TURNS TO THE NEXT SYSTEM THAT WILL BRING THE NEXT
ROUND OF RAIN AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS. LATEST MODEL TRENDS
WOULD SUGGEST RAIN WOULD BE A FEW HOURS SLOWER ARRIVING ACROSS
FAR NORTHEAST WI AND PROBABLY WOULD NOT OCCUR UNTIL EARLY EVENING.
THE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER IS VERY LOW WITH MODELS INDICATING THE
MOST UNSTABLE CAPE VALUES OF 50-150 J/KG ACROSS CENTRAL INTO
NORTHEAST WI MONDAY EVENING. THE NBM WAS HIGHLIGHTING A 60-90%
CHANCE OF 1 INCH OR MORE OF RAIN FROM MARSHFIELD TO WAUSAU
TO MERRILL NORTHEAST INTO MARINETTE COUNTY. THE PROBABILITIES DROP
OFF SHARPLY TO 15 TO 30% FROM GREEN BAY AND APPLETON AND POINTS
TO THE SOUTHEAST AND EAST. THE NBM ALSO SHOWED A 50-70% CHANCE
OF 2+" OF RAIN FROM WAUSAU TO MARSHFIELD. THE LREF PROBABILITIES
WERE SOMEWHAT LOWER, BUT WERE STILL HIGHLIGHTING THE HEAVIEST
RAINFALL OUT TOWARDS WAUSAU. ANY RAIN ACROSS NORTHEAST WI WILL
COME TO AN END TUESDAY MORNING.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION ON TUESDAY, ALTHOUGH
GUSTY WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO BRING SOME HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS
ON THE BAY AND LAKE. THE PREVIOUS FOREMENTIONED BAROCLINIC ZONE
IS EXPECTED TO SET UP SOUTH OF THE AREA FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK.
A WAVE MOVING ALONG THE BOUNDARY COULD BRING A CHANCE OF
RAIN WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT, ALTHOUGH
CONFIDENCE IS LOW ON THE NORTHWARD EXTENT OF THE PRECIPITATION
FIELD. THE MODELS ARE IN AN AGREEMENT THAT FEATURE MOVING ACROSS
THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY WILL LIKELY BE THE HIGHEST
CHANCES/GREATEST CONFIDENCE IN THE CHANCES FOR RAIN DURING THE
PERIOD. TEMPERATURES FOR MUCH OF THE PERIOD WILL BE AT OR SLIGHTLY
ABOVE NORMAL.
