022 FXUS63 KGRB 072249 AFDGRB Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Green Bay WI 549 PM CDT Tue Oct 7 2025 Updated aviation portion for 00Z TAF issuance .KEY MESSAGES... - Freeze/frost headlines continue for areas away from Lake Michigan tonight as confidence increases for temperatures in the 20s and 30s. - Additional frost/freeze headlines look likely for Wednesday night, away from Lake Michigan. - Cool temperatures through mid-week, then slowly warming to above normal again by the weekend. - A dry period expected through Thursday, with small precipitation chances returning Thursday night into Friday, and a better chance anticipated Sunday through next Tuesday. && .DISCUSSION... Issued at 346 PM CDT Tue Oct 7 2025 A cold front will continue to move through the region this afternoon and evening, accompanied by scattered to broken cloud cover, gusty NW-N winds and the arrival of a cooler and drier Canadian air mass. Frost/Freeze Headlines & Temperatures...Made some changes to the ongoing frost/freeze headlines, as latest guidance keeps more of eastern WI above freezing overnight and a lingering pressure gradient supports persistent light north winds in eastern WI through the night. The main change was to downgrade the Freeze Warning to a Frost Advisory in southern Marinette, southern Oconto, Menominee and Shawano counties, with a time match with the existing Frost Advisory in the Fox Valley areas. Additional frost/freeze headlines look likely Wednesday night, as Min temperatures have been lowered several degrees, especially away from Lake Michigan. The cool temperatures begin to moderate late in the work week, and rise to well above normal again over the weekend. Precipitation...Canadian high pressure brings dry conditions through Thursday, but southerly return flow brings a small chance of showers Thursday night into Friday. After another dry period for the first part of the weekend, southwest flow and increased moisture brings a chance of showers at times from Sunday afternoon through next Tuesday. && .AVIATION...for 00Z TAF Issuance Issued at 548 PM CDT Tue Oct 7 2025 VFR conditions are expected to prevail through the TAF period at all terminals. Skies have become clear across much of central and northern WI this evening. An area of mid-level clouds is moving over the Fox Valley behind a weak cold-front, however, those clouds should clear over the next few hours leaving clear skies overnight.
