turtlehurricane Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Could the LLJ maybe get some interesting going in Wisconsin tonight? Still wondering since the NWS hasn't downgraded today's outlook at all. The Great Plains LLJ doesn't occur in Wisconsin, no sloping terrain. There's already a mid-latitude cyclone LLJ in place that is quite strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baroclinic_instability Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Do you think that is what hurt the potential? I mean, there were still areas of 1000+ MLCAPE to work with. I don't know, I think it certainly contributed to some degree by limiting mid level CAPE in such a strongly deep layer sheared environment. I think the flow was a tad too unidirectional away from the warm front as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoosier Posted April 16, 2012 Author Share Posted April 16, 2012 I don't know, I think it certainly contributed to some degree by limiting mid level CAPE in such a strongly deep layer sheared environment. I think the flow was a tad too unidirectional away from the warm front as well. The unidirectional flow in much of the warm sector had been looking like an issue. I'm more interested in figuring out why the area closer to the warm front didn't produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
