667 FXUS63 KGRB 152344 AFDGRB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Green Bay WI 544 PM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 Updated aviation portion for 00Z TAF issuance .KEY MESSAGES... - Temperatures will return to near or slightly below normal through next week. - Light precip possible Monday night into Tuesday. Light snow accumulations (less than 1 inch) could affect the Tuesday morning commute south of highway 10. - Worsening drought conditions will be possible due to the persistent dry pattern. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 142 PM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 Gusty winds and afternoon cumulus clouds should give way to some easing of the winds and mostly clear skies tonight. Winds should still be gusty tonight, although closer to 10 to 20 mph instead of around 30 mph this afternoon. Lows tonight are expected to generally range from the middle 20s across the north, to the lower 30s along the lakeshore. Similar wind speeds are expected on Sunday with cooler daytime temperatures behind the cold front that moved through today. Highs Sunday are only expected to range from around 40 across the north, to the middle 40s across central and east-central Wisconsin. Precip chances...Ensembles continue to trend further north with the early week system, bringing more of the cwa into the edge of the precip shield. Better dynamics with the shortwave look to remain off to our south, though the axis of higher moisture skims central and east-central Wisconsin. Low confidence in precip type issues coming into play as surface temperatures remain above freezing at precip onset Monday evening. Timing of the wave will be key in this regard, as an earlier arrival would be more conducive for a rain/snow mix. This being said, suspect that the dominant p-type will be snow as top down saturation occurs as the entirety of the profile falls below freezing later Monday night. As the system moves north, total QPF has also increased with 0.1" sneaking into southern portions of central and east-central Wisconsin late Monday night. This could bring a few tenths of an inch of snow south of highway 10 and could affect the morning commute on Tuesday. 500 mb wave train then ramps up toward the end of the week, ushering in a more active pattern during the extended leg of the forecast. Temperatures...Cooler temperatures are expected to settle in the mid 30s to mid 40s range for the entirety of the work week. && .AVIATION...for 00Z TAF Issuance Issued at 542 PM CST Sat Nov 15 2025 In wake of cold frontal passage, VFR conditions are expected through Sunday afternoon. Expanding stratocu could drop to near MVFR over north-central WI/Upper Michigan border late tonight, but it should stay VFR at RHI. Northwest winds will remain gusty, though there will be more lulls in the gusts tonight leading to occasional LLWS at RHI/GRB/ATW/MTW. && .GRB WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... None. && $$ DISCUSSION.....Kurimski AVIATION.......JLA
