.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 131 AM CDT Tue Sep 30 2025
After a quiet night and some patchy dense fog potential across
northwest Wisconsin, our weather pattern will bring a warm-up to
the Northland this week. Today, expect breezy conditions with a
noticeable temperature difference across the area; while inland
locations warm into the mid and upper 70s, a persistent wind
off of Lake Superior will keep communities along the shore much
cooler, with highs only in the 60s. This same wind will cause
rip currents and hazardous swimming conditions - a Beach Hazards
Statement is in effect today. May see a few showers today
though just a stray sprinkle is probably the best they can
muster at the surface due to a deep level of mid- level dry air.
The entire region gets in on the warmth by Wednesday as
southerly winds take over, pushing temperatures into the mid-70s
and even low 80s for most which will last through Friday. These
temperatures are 20 degrees above average for this time of
year! In fact, the extreme forecast index from the ECMWF shows
Friday temps as the highest in the climatological record.
Aside from the hot weather for this time of year, a weak disturbance
could bring a chance for some light rain on Thursday, but our best
chance for more active weather arrives for the weekend. Starting
Friday and lasting through Sunday, southwest flow will bring a
weather system into the region and with it moisture and energy,
increasing the potential for showers and thunderstorms to develop
across the area - maybe even a small chance for severe weather
according to the CSU machine learning guidance.

.AVIATION /12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY/...
Issued at 625 AM CDT Tue Sep 30 2025
VFR with gusty east winds today. May see some patchy dense fog
near KHYR or KHIB this morning. There is a chance of shower
activity this afternoon though low level dry air will limit
precipitation at the surface - virga is the more likely outcome.

.MARINE /FOR NEAR SHORE WATERS OF WESTERN LAKE SUPERIOR/...
Issued at 131 AM CDT Tue Sep 30 2025
Northeast winds will strengthen, with gusts of 25-30 knots
expected, which will cause waves to build to as high as 4-6 feet
with the largest waves on the north side of the Apostle
Islands. Due to these conditions, a Small Craft Advisory is in
effect through tonight, as the choppy water will be dangerous
for smaller vessels. Conditions are expected to gradually
improve throughout the day on Wednesday as winds weaken,
allowing the waves to calm down to a more manageable one to two
feet.
