.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 945 PM CST Sat Nov 7 2026
A dry cold frontal passage will bring an increase in cloud cover
overnight. Behind the front winds will become northwesterly for
Sunday, and with a tightening pressure gradient and deeper mixing up
to around 850mb gusts will increase to around 25-35 mph Sunday
afternoon, strongest across northern WI, before subsiding Sunday
evening.
A brief period of high pressure Monday will keep the forecast dry
and temps a few degrees above normal before the next frontal passage
comes Tuesday into Wednesday. NBM probs continue to show 20 to 30%
PoPs, highest over the over the lake effect belts of north-central
WI as well as northern Door Co. Colder shot of air also arrives
during this time as 850 mb temps fall to -7 to -9C, hinting at the
potential for snow flurries mixing in with light rain at times.
Otherwise, respectable signal (50 to 60%) exists for below normal
precipitation and above normal temperatures into the middle of the
November.
