AREAS AFFECTED...PARTS OF WOLF RIVER VALLEY INTO ADJACENT UPPER
PENINSULA OF MICHIGAN
CONCERNING...SEVERE POTENTIAL...WATCH POSSIBLE
VALID 132148Z - 132345Z
PROBABILITY OF WATCH ISSUANCE...40 PERCENT
SUMMARY...LARGE HAIL AND ISOLATED SEVERE GUSTS ARE POSSIBLE WITH
ELEVATED SUPERCELLS THIS AFTERNOON/EARLY EVENING. A WATCH IS
POSSIBLE SHOULD CONVECTIVE TRENDS IN STORM INTENSITY WARRANT.
DISCUSSION...STORMS HAVE BEGUN TO DEVELOP WITHIN THE WOLF RIVER
VALLEY REGION. THESE STORMS EXIST NORTH OF THE WARM FRONT. WHILE
BUOYANCY IS MORE LIMITED WITH NORTHERN EXTENT, STRONG SHEAR NOTED ON
THE KGRB VAD AND STEEP MID-LEVEL LAPSE RATE ON THE OBSERVED 18Z GRB
SOUNDING SUGGESTS ELEVATED SUPERCELLS WILL BE CAPABLE OF LARGE HAIL
AND ISOLATED SEVERE WIND GUSTS. THE WARM FRONT WILL SLOWLY TRY TO
MOVE NORTHWARD INTO THE EVENING, THOUGH COOLER LAKE AIR IN THE FOX
RIVER VALLEY/STURGEON BAY IS NOTED AND WILL HINDER THIS PROCESS TO
SOME EXTENT. THAT BEING SAID, THE OVERALL TORNADO THREAT SHOULD
REMAIN LOW, THOUGH IT WILL NOT BE ZERO FOR ANY STORM NEAR THE WARM
FRONT.
