Geos Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Down to 52° this morning. In the low 60s right now. Expecting some upper 40s tonight, especially if winds are calm and skies mostly to completely clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trapperman Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 It's actually trending cooler with every run after Saturday. Those 850 temps would probably mean a hard freeze for a bunch of MN/northern Wisco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trapperman Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 12z EURO also has a nice severe weather setup Friday/Saturday. Moisture will be a bit of a problem but yeah, that trough goes negative real fast. GFS kind of has the same idea, juist a bit further south, but moisture is really going to be a huge problem.

GFS kind of has the same idea, juist a bit further south, but moisture is really going to be a huge problem. Not to get hung up on specifics this far out, but with a trough taking a negative tilt like that you won't need a whole lot of moisture to get things popping Granted, the EURO's about the only model showing something like that (GFS is a lot less amped). But it's something to definitely keep an eye on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trapperman Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 I would just like to take one moment to apologize to all the warministas on this board for all my "cold" posts, but dangit, I'm ready for it. Sick of heat heat heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtlehurricane Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 This is the weather I live for, around 70 °F now. Good for relaxing the rest of the day, much needed after part 1 of my PhD exam earlier. Part 2 tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geos Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Made it to 70° today. Coolish day for sure. Dewpoints down in the mid 40s, should spur a rapid temperature drop at sunset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewers Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 Made it to 70° today. Coolish day for sure. Dewpoints down in the mid 40s, should spur a rapid temperature drop at sunset. I think clouds and showers will prevent temps from dropping too much, low 50's once again sounds like a good bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtlehurricane Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Lot of wind after the storm passed through...interesting It's heading for Madison, something to look forward to. The high winds and its fast progression are due to this line being right next to the jet max! 125 mph winds at 300 mb over La Crosse, a little mixing and you easily get some TS force gusts. Classic ageostrophic divergence in the left exit region of the jet is driving this. Also strong low level cold air advection behind the precip, so this is basically a cold front.
