(80-100% CHANCE). A FEW STRONG STORMS WITH SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY
WINDS MAY OCCUR. MODERATE TO HEAVY RAINFALL WILL HAVE A 60-80%
CHANCE OF EXCEEDING 1 INCH OF RAIN.

DISCUSSION
ISSUED AT 303 PM CDT TUE JUN 16 2026
ACTIVE WEATHER CONTINUES THROUGH LATE THIS WEEK. TEMPERATURES WILL
REMAIN BELOW NORMAL.
INTO THIS EVENING...COMPACT, TIGHTLY WRAPPED UP SHORTWAVE TROUGH
CROSSES THE REGION. INSTABILITY HAS BUILT SUFFICIENTLY TO RESULT
IN STRONG TO SEVERE STORMS EARLY THIS AFTERNOON WITH 0.5 INCH TO
1.0 INCH HAIL, ESPECIALLY WITH SUCH LOW FREEZING LEVELS. LACK OF
SHEAR WELL UNDER 20 KTS MEANS MAIN STORM MODE WILL BE PULSE TYPE.
SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL EXIT EASTERN WI AFTER 6-7P.
WEDNESDAY...
ANOTHER, STRONGER SHORTWAVE DROPS TOWARDS THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY,
BRINGING ANOTHER ROUND OF SHOWERS AND STORMS. THE TRACK OF THE
ACCOMPANYING SURFACE LOW IS EXPECTED TO REMAIN OVER SOUTHERN
WISCONSIN WHICH SHOULD KEEP WARM FRONT AND MORE UNSTABLE AIR SOUTH
OF THE AREA, AND GREATLY LIMIT THE OVERALL SEVERE POTENTIAL. THAT
SAID, SOME OVERRUNNING MOISTURE FROM THE SURFACE WARM FRONT
COMBINED WITH SOME SURFACE HEATING AND SUFFICIENT SHEAR WILL
STILL SUPPORT AT LEAST EMBEDDED STORMS. BEST POTENTIAL FOR ANY
STRONGER STORMS WILL BE FROM CENTRAL TO EAST-CENTRAL WISCONSIN,
MAINLY SOUTH OF HIGHWAY 10. HEAVY RAINFALL WILL ALSO BE POSSIBLE
WITH ANY CONVECTION. THERE IS A MARGINAL RISK OF EXCESSIVE
RAINFALL STRETCHING ACROSS CENTRAL TO EAST-CENTRAL WISCONSIN AND
SOUTHWARDS AS WELL.
REST OF THE FORECAST PERIOD...ANOTHER BRIEF ROUND OF SCATTERED
(20-30% CHANCE) SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE ON THURSDAY, DRIVEN
PRIMARILY BY STRONG SURFACE HEATING. CONVECTIVE SUPPORT WILL BE
RELATIVELY MINIMAL, SO EXPECT IMPACTS FROM ANY SCATTERED SHOWERS
TO BE MINIMAL. AFTER THIS, THE ONLY CHANCE FOR MORE WIDESPREAD
ACTIVE WEATHER WOULD BE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY, WHEN ANOTHER
LARGER SYSTEM ENTERS WESTERN GREAT LAKES. GREATEST RISK FOR RAIN
APPEARS TO BE SETTING UP FOR SUNDAY INSTEAD OF SATURDAY.

OF THUNDER IN THE TAFS THIS FAR OUT DUE TO LOW CONFIDENCE IN
