DISCUSSION

Tonight
A shortwave trough will move southeast through Wisconsin tonight. There may be enough low-level saturation in Wisconsin for some flurries and light snow. If light snow occurs, no accumulations are expected. Low temperatures will range from 10 to 20 degrees north of Interstate 94 and 20 to 25 degrees for the remainder of the area.
Monday night
On Monday night, a northern stream shortwave will move east along the US/Canadian border. As this occurs, the flow aloft will become more zonal. At the surface, a cold front will move east across the area. Any precipitation with this system will be highly dependent upon the southern extent of the warm front where there will be deeper saturation and lift. The probabilities for 0.01 inches of precipitation is up to a 10 percent along Interstate 94 and from 20 to 40 percent north of Wisconsin 29. If precipitation does indeed occur, it would be in the form of snow. Low temperatures will range from the upper teens to mid-20s.
Wednesday night into Friday night
Still plenty of uncertainty on where the ridge axis will be located over the Northern and Central Plains and how far a Canadian trough will extend west of the Great Lakes. This affects where the low-level moisture return will be located. 71 percent of Grand Ensemble has at least a chance of 0.01 inches of precipitation falling across the entire area. Meanwhile, 29 percent of the Grand Ensemble members keep Wisconsin mainly dry. High temperatures will be in the 30s and low temperatures will be in the mid- and upper teens north of Interstate 94 and in the lower and mid-20s elsewhere.
