.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 459 AM CDT Tue Jun 25 2024

Lingering showers and storms will exit the area early this
morning, with quieter weather expected the next couple of days.
Next round of showers and storms arrives on Friday into Saturday.

Showers and storms will end by around 12z. It is looking mainly
dry for the rest of today into tonight, but will carry a small
chance for a shower or sprinkle across mainly central WI later
this afternoon and evening as a weak boundary drops across the
state. Instability looks pretty meager, so while a stray rumble of
thunder can`t be rule out, will not include. Models try to
generate some showers on Wednesday, as a shortwave crosses the
area, along with a weak boundary. Will throw in a slight chance
for showers to cover this threat. Quiet conditions are expected
Wednesday night into Thursday as high pressure slides over the
Great Lakes. The next chance for widespread showers and storms
arrives Friday into Saturday as a frontal system and shortwave
trough push across the region. Two waves of precip look to occur.
First with a leading shortwave, moisture advection and LLJ on
Friday. Then a second chance with a deeper trough late Friday into
early Saturday (if timing holds). Overall instability look to be
limited due to cloud cover, so the severe weather threat looks to
be low. PWATs of around 2" will bring the threat for heavy rain
and some minor flooding. Another system may bring showers and
storms to the region early in the next work week.

Highs today look to be in the upper 70s and 80s for most
locations. It will be a little cooler on Wednesday with some
highs in the upper 60s over far northern WI, with 70s elsewhere.
Temps the rest of the week and weekend look to average near to
slightly below normal. It will remain on the humid side today,
with less humid conditions arriving tonight into Wednesday.

with low clouds lingering across the area through around 15Z. The
low clouds could lower conditions to MVFR/IFR at times, especially
across north-central Wisconsin. Once the low clouds clear, VFR
conditions are expected to rest of today into tonight.
