Latest visible satellite imagery shows a patch of stratus deck
over southeast Minnesota and north central Iowa overtopping a weak
surface ridge axis...as depicted by latest 19z surface
analysis...with mostly sunny skies seen elsewhere.
Surface ridge will build to the east of the forecast area tonight.
However...surface ridge will continue to be the dominant weather
feature tonight and provide dry weather/mostly clear to partly
cloudy skies across the region.
Friday...as the surface ridge builds east of the forecast
area...pressure gradient tightens on backside of surface ridge will
allow for winds to increase across the forecast area. The 25.12z
deterministic models indicate 30 to 35 knots at the top of the mixed
layer near the inversion across the northwest part of the forecast
area. For now...sustained wind speeds will be 10 to 20 knots and
gusts 25 to 35 knots across much of the forecast area.
With the increased in southerly winds aloft...warmer air advects
into the region...as the 25.12z GFS/NAM indicate 925mb temps warming
to minus 2 to near plus 1 degree celsius by 21z Friday. Expect high
temperatures to be in the upper 30s to lower to middle 40s...if more
sunshine occurs...temps could be slightly warmer.

For the extended, we continue to see a shortwave trough Friday
night with attendant light snow/wintry mix, however the system
for Saturday night into Sunday morning it looking a bit more
promising for more snow/wintry mix. Temperatures through the
extended mostly remain at or above normal except for a cooler
shot of air Sunday and Monday.
A 500mb trough will be swinging through the forecast area Friday
night. The 12Z NAM takes an embedded shortwave across the county
warning forecast area. There is upper level jet support with a
somewhat coupled jet and left front exit region lift, with
positive vorticity advection. Since yesterday, the NAM has
decreased liquid equivalents. The models in general are not as
robust with the precipitation. The GFS/EC are a little more
shifted toward the southeast half of the forecast area to receive
the higher liquid equivalents/light snow/mix. The GEFs plumes are
only about 0.05" with half an inch of snow. The forecast
soundings show robust lift through the dendritic growth zone,
however the low levels are drier to start and the lift is quick to
push through. The main storm track to the south is limiting
moisture from the south being advected into the system, however
as the shortwave does push east, there is some limited
connection. As the lift decreases, could see some patchy freezing
drizzle should the low levels remain saturated with the loss of
ice.
Westerly flow aloft continues Saturday and the SREF stratus
probabilities are around 70 percent in the morning which improve to
20 percent in the afternoon. Other hi-res models hint at these low
clouds as well, however the RAP is more optimistic. This will be
important should there be enough moisture for drizzle/freezing
drizzle.
Saturday night into Sunday is looking a lot more interesting. There
is good model agreement that within the longwave flow, another
shortwave will swing through the area. The NAM has it more tied to
the wave coming across the Central Plains, where the GFS/EC has it
tied closer to the shortwave tracking across the Northern Plains.
The NAM/GFS now paint a stripe of potentially heavy snow either in
MPX`s area or our county warning forecast area. The EC is more to
the northeast of our area with the moderate to heavy snow. We`ll
need to keep and eye on this as temperatures, strength,
precipitation type, and liquid equivalent will be affected. The
HREF/Forecast soundings show some freezing precipitation across
parts of the forecast area.
Cooling arrives later Sunday into Monday with highs from the 30s/40s
dropping to the 20s/30s. The cooling is short-lived as highs
return to the 30s/40s for the rest of the week Tue-Thu.

VFR conditions expected through the TAF period, though will need
to keep an eye on MVFR deck approaching LSE. It has been
consistently scattering out through the afternoon so keeping
SCT015 mention, but can`t completely rule out a brief period of
BKN ceilings at the beginning of the period followed by clear
skies later this evening. Always need to keep an eye on fog/low
cloud potential with any snow melting, but latest guidance seems
to confine this to portions of northeast Iowa into far southwest
Wisconsin tonight...well south of the TAF sites. Otherwise, main
concern heading into Friday will be southerly winds gusting in the
25 to 35 kt range, highest west of the Mississippi River. Winds
should pick up by 14 to 15Z before tapering off right at the end
of the TAF period.
Looking ahead, expect some light snow to be approaching the TAF
sites toward the end of the period, but model consensus holds it
off until after 00Z. Will need to monitor timing trends on future
issuances.

.UPDATE...
Issued at 651 PM CST Thu Feb 25 2021
Opaque high clouds are increasing a bit faster than forecast, but
overall forecast is on track with ongoing breezy conditions
continuing and mostly cloudy skies overnight. Result of the
clouds/winds may be less radiational cooling and there is
potential that some locations hold steady around or above
freezing. Colder spots would be in the 20s, still warmer than
previous nights.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday night)
Issued at 306 PM CST Thu Feb 25 2021
Minimal to no impacts are expected today through tonight as the
probability for widespread hazardous weather is very low (less
than 10 percent). Any impacts would come from brief, scattered
snow showers assoc with a cold front moving into the area Friday
night into Saturday.
Mid level troughing nears the area Saturday with an attendant cold
front expected to move into the area from the north Friday night.
Several hires deterministic models reveal CAA aloft Friday as the
mid level trough axis moves over the area. This initial mid level
CAA steepens mid level lapse rates some, which may introduce some
condition instability for the cold front and mid level shortwave
forcing to utilize. However this isn`t too much of a concern given
the lack of overall moisture and forcing to work with. Ensemble
guidance like ENS and GEFS along with hires guidance like NAM3K
and HRRR show the majority of members keeping QPF through Friday
night under 0.01 inches and largely behind the cold front, likely
owing to just enough of a kick from low level CAA behind the front
to introduce the mention of scattered light snow showers. Due to
lack of coverage and more QPF, chances of impacts from this
activity will to remain very low.
Low level temps tonight through Friday remain warm ahead of the cold
front. This translates to afternoons with above freezing temps into
the 30s and 40s , which will likely continue to melt snowpack
outside of areas that received several inches early this week. Fog
concerns from snowmelt are nill due to overnight cloud cover and
elevated winds overnight. Winds will remain breezy out of the
southwest and west tonight and Friday, also aiding in downslope
warming in typical areas like the western Valley.
.LONG TERM...(Saturday through Thursday)
Issued at 306 PM CST Thu Feb 25 2021
Besides a short wave bringing some chances for light snow to the
area Sunday evening the extended forecast continues to look dry and
above normal leading to minimal weather impacts.
Saturday will see temps either steady to falling behind a cold
front with flurries or light snow in the morning. Highs in the
teens can be expected with similar values on Sunday. The last weak
wave in the NW flow aloft will bring another round of light snow
Sunday evening for locations along and north of Hwy 2. Will see
the upper air pattern flattens and become more zonal thereafter.
As a result temps will climb into the 30s and 40s for Monday and
onward which is above normal for the first week of March when
normal highs are in the upper 20s.

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 313 PM CST Thu Feb 25 2021
High pressure will move through Illinois this evening. Patchy fog
is possible overnight north of I-74. A warming trend continues
through Saturday, with high temperatures in the upper 40s or low
50s on Friday, then the upper 50s on Saturday. Light rain is
possible Friday night. Additional rain is possible Saturday night
into Sunday, especially south of I-70.
&&
.UPDATE...
Issued at 925 PM CST Thu Feb 25 2021
Relatively benign weather conditions are expected the rest of
tonight as the surface high pressure center departs to the east of
Illinois. Patchy fog could affect our northern counties where
snowmelt occurred recently. Light and variable winds and moisture
trapped near the ground under a subsidence inversion will help
support that scenario. High res guidance is pointing toward better
chances of fog remaining north of Peoria, where we currently have
fog in the forecast.
Low temps will dip below freezing in our entire CWA by sunrise, so
any fog that does develop could deposit some moisture and produce
icy conditions. Frost in the ground will also give support for
slippery conditions in some areas.
Overall the forecast is on track, and only minor updates were
needed this evening.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday)
ISSUED AT 313 PM CST Thu Feb 25 2021
A 1030mb surface high pressure located over northwestern Missouri
this afternoon will shift briskly to the east, translating through
Illinois this evening and exiting the area overnight. In its
wake, light southeasterly flow will develop. The lack of truly
calm winds should be enough to limit fog potential across much of
the area, except north of I-74 where the snowpack enhances low-
level moisture and cooling. With overnight lows in the mid 20s,
some freezing fog is possible where fog develops.
On Friday, two waves of forcing will induce precipitation chances.
The first comes as a shortwave moves through the ArkLaTex region
during the day Friday. Most of the precipitation with this wave
should be confined to far southern Illinois and further south from
there, but the southernmost counties of the ILX CWA (Clay,
Richland, Lawrence) could see some light precip Fri afternoon.
A better chance for precip comes Fri evening, as a shortwave lifts
from the central Plains into the Great Lakes. The best forcing
with this wave will remain north of the ILX CWA, and moisture
advection may be limited due to convection expected to be ongoing
across Kentucky and Tennessee at the time, but models have been
consistent in developing scattered precip across the area in the
00z-06z Saturday time frame. With surface temps in the mid 30s, no
wintry precip is expected.
.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Thursday)
ISSUED AT 313 PM CST Thu Feb 25 2021
The warming trend will continue through Saturday, as clear skies,
lack of snow cover, and winds with a southerly component boost
temperatures well above average. Adjusted the Saturday highs to
the 75th percentile of the blended guidance. The Sunday high temp
forecast is more uncertain than Saturday, as a cold front moves
through in the afternoon and clouds limit insolation. GEFS member
spread increases considerably Sunday afternoon. Nudged forecast
highs slightly warmer than the blended guidance in coordination
with surrounding offices, but confidence in that adjustment is
low.
Another precip chance comes overnight Saturday into Sunday. Models
have been consistent in indicating that the heaviest precip will
fall over Kentucky, with a very sharp gradient in QPF amounts. The
current forecast calls for a half inch of QPF in Lawrence county,
with amounts in excess of 1.5 inches across Kentucky. For ILX
counties south of I-70, small shifts in the storm track will
result in significant changes to the amount of rainfall received
with this system. Multiple additional precip chances exist into
next week, but model solutions diverge after Sunday.

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Friday evening)
Issued at 553 PM CST Thu Feb 25 2021
A stream of cirrus clouds advancing across Illinois will be the
primary clouds of note tonight, as high pressure advances across
Illinois. The weak pressure gradient under the surface ridge axis
will create light and variable wind conditions. Friday morning,
after the ridge axis passes to the east of Illinois, winds will
become southeast and increase into the 10-15kt range by late
morning through the afternoon.
RAP guidance continues to point toward locally dense fog
developing north of Peoria later tonight. Forecast soundings in
most other models do not support much in the way of fog at PIA, or
the other I-74 TAF sites. Have stayed the course with a mention of
MVFR vis for a couple hours late tonight. However, if model and
observational trends continue, will likely pull that out with the
06z TAF update.

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 355 PM EST Thu Feb 25 2021
Partly cloudy and cold conditions are in store for tonight with
some patchy fog development expected. Slightly warmer conditions
are expected for Friday as clouds increase in advance of a system
that will bring a brief period of rain late Friday night. The
weekend will feature much warmer conditions.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This Evening through Friday)
Issued at 355 PM EST Thu Feb 25 2021
The next sheared upper level wave will approach the Mid MS Rvr
Valley later tonight with just some increasing high cloud this
evening. Currently not expecting clouds to be much impediment to
radiational cooling tonight as winds slacken off with approach of
low level anticyclone. High clouds may also tend to thin/drop
south of the area during the overnight hours. Fog forecast a bit
of a challenge tonight with near term guidance differing quite a
bit on the handling strength of nocturnal inversion. In leaning
toward lessening clouds overnight and snowmelt possibly providing
near sfc moisture source, have opted to include patchy fog mention
across most of the area with greatest confidence across the
northwest half of the area where snow cover is greater.
Departure of low level anticyclone on Friday will allow for
return warm advection Friday afternoon. Did slightly nudge up high
temps for Friday with forecast soundings indicating respectable
low level mixing. Cloud cover will be on the increase from south
to north during the afternoon however.
Warmer conditions for Friday will allow for continued melting of
snowpack and continued rises on some area rivers. Some ice action
has been observed on area rivers today, and going forward into the
weekend will need to continue to monitor for some localized minor
flooding due to runoff from snowmelt and isolated ice jam
activity.
&&
.LONG TERM...(Friday Night through Thursday)
Issued at 355 PM EST Thu Feb 25 2021
The next fast moving eastern Pacific wave is still poised to
affect the area Friday night. As has been the case many times over
the past several weeks, this upper level short wave will tend to
dampen under the influence of northern stream confluence.
Nevertheless, good advective forcing will overspread the southern
Great Lakes and Ohio Valley late Friday afternoon into Friday
night. The best chances of precip now appear to be focused across
northern third of the area, which will be in closer proximity to
stronger pocket of isentropic ascent and stronger 850-700 hPa fgen
forcing with tighter low-mid level thermal ribbon late Friday
evening into the overnight. Strength of advective forcing still
seems to support idea of mainly all rain with light precip amounts
of a tenth of an inch or less given progressive nature of this
forcing and rapid eastward translation of dry slot.
No significant changes to the forecast post-Friday as a broader
western CONUS Pacific wave allows for quick resurgence of low
level thermal ridging back into the Ohio Valley and southern Great
Lakes. Highs by Sunday in the mid 50s appear likely across many
locations as lingering snowpack erodes. A rather complex
combination of positively tilted northern stream trough and
sheared southern stream forcing appears likely for Saturday night-
Sunday. Positively tilted nature will keep heavier rainfall south
of the local area, but will continue to carry low-mid range chance
light rain PoPs across the south Saturday night into Sunday.
Temps cool down for Monday to slightly below normal, but low
amplitude flow downstream of western CONUS upper ridging should
allow for quick moderation back to above normal by middle of next
week.

Decidedly difficult forecast with respect to BR/FZFG potential
near sunup. Have sided more optimistic per latest trends of HRRR
versus moister NAM boundary layer. This, in part, due to shallow
trough passage with surface dewpoints on order of 5-10F lower over
past 24 hours. With a few more hours of dry advection remaining
and opacity of cirrus shield, at least for first part of the
night, should hold br formation at bay.

National Weather Service Spokane WA
344 PM PST Thu Feb 25 2021
.SYNOPSIS...
Windy weather will continue into Friday with periods of
moderate to heavy mountain snow. Snow showers will also impact
portions of the Palouse and Camas Prairie. Quieter weather is
expected this weekend then more light mountain snow is possible
Sunday into Monday.
&&
.DISCUSSION...
Remainder of the afternoon and this evening: Cold upper-level
trough with 500mb temperatures around -32C coupled with afternoon
sunshine will create steep lapse rates across the region leading
to convective hit or miss showers. A majority of these showers
will be chaotic and short-lived however meso-scale models continue
to show convergence zones extending well east of the Cascades
(typically tied to the larger volcanoes) resulting in more
organized bands of east to west showers. HRRR even showing a few
low 40 dbZ echoes with this activity which could extend anywhere
from around Plain-Wenatchee to Pullman-Lewiston. This will likely
fall as a mix of rain, snow, and graupel but with gusty winds
pushing temperatures into the 40s, it will be difficult for this
to impact travel. As you go into the rising terrain of the Idaho
Panhandle, temperatures are cooler and we may see snow start to
stick to roads, especially after sunset. Snow shower activity will
be more concentrated on the mountains due to the strong west flow
with an additional 1-2 feet of snow possible at Stevens Pass and
4 to 8 inches for Lookout Pass. Winds will remain breezy across
the region with gusts of 25-35 mph common across our wind prone
Basin, Palouse, and West Plains.
Friday: A second shortwave will drop into the region early Friday
morning. Forcing along this shortwave will be quite strong with
Div Q values on the order of -20 to -30. This forcing along with
the aforementioned steep lapse rates will likely lead to bands of
moderate precipitation. Exact placement of these bands could
change but general consensus for the last few model runs were from
southern Shoshone County...across the Palouse, and into the Blue
Mountains. Northwest flow feeding into this area will also enhance
lift for the Blue Mountains and Camas Prairie. Consequently,
periods of light to moderate snow will be possible early Friday
morning just prior to sunrise before ending in the afternoon. The
challenge with this event will be temperatures. Gusty winds have
pushed temperatures near 40F around Pullman and mid 30s in the
Idaho Palouse. With the winds expected to blow through the night,
there is modest uncertainty if these locations will cool enough to
efficiently accumulate snow. Perhaps the showers this evening
will cool the environment. Confidence is higher for the Camas
Prairie where temperatures at this hour are in the mid 30s and
thinking the Lewiston Area will certainty remain too warm. With
this being said, we have issued snow advisories for the Camas
Prairie. Will have the evening shift monitor temperature trends
for the Palouse zones and if these locations can cool into the mid
30s before midnight, likely expand the advisories for locations
like Pullman, Uniontown, Troy, and Moscow where another 2-4" will
be possible.
Snow showers will continue in these areas into Friday afternoon but
the forcing will be shifting south and intensities will become lighter
and largely driven by afternoon heating and upsloping flow. The
late February sun angle will also make it challenging for snow to
accumulate on roads.
One impact that could be problematic on the Camas Prairie, Blue Mountains,
and Central Panhandle Mountains will be blowing and drifting snow.
Steady winds of 15-25 mph from the west could create heavy
drifting for several hours Friday morning after snow falls and
before the sun crusts the snow.
Winds: Southwest winds remain breezy from the East Slopes of the Cascades,
across the Basin, and into the Palouse and West Plains today. We
saw a quick punch of advisory winds (30 G 45 mph) with the cold
front passage earlier this morning and now the winds are being
driven by a PDX-GPI pressure gradient of 13 mb...which is expected
to increase closer to 17-18mb. Gusts of 30-38 mph have been
common the last few hours and could approach 40-45 mph before
sunset. The winds will remain breezy into the early evening then
begin to come down, especially across the Upper Columbia Basin
between Wilbur and Spokane. May be able to remove these areas from
the advisory if this comes to fruition. A second surge of winds
will come from the west and northwest Friday morning and afternoon
with the passage of the next shortwave. This push of winds will
mainly focus from the East Slopes to Waterville Plateau to Tri-
Cities and into the foothills of the Blue Mountains and L-C
Valley. Sustained winds of 20-30 mph coupled with gusts 40-50 mph
will be a concern. Minor tree damage and challenging cross winds
will be a concern. Stronger winds gusting near 60 mph or stronger
are expected on the ridgetops of the Cascades. There is little
evidence in the hi-res models that these winds will descend into
the valleys like Leavenworth, and Plain but something we will need
to monitor. /sb
Saturday: Light mountain snowfall may linger into the morning,
and morning fog/stratus is still a possibility. Northerly flow is
expected to funnel down the Okanogan valley causing somewhat
breezy winds into the Columbia Basin. Winds are expected to calm
Saturday evening. Relatively clear skies for much of the region,
though not as much of a break from cloud cover is expected for the
mountains.
Forecast uncertainty for next week remains significant. This is
due to a split flow pattern aloft which has resulted in very
different model solutions. Additionally, for the rest of the
period, every morning currently holds the potential of fog/low
stratus development according to weather models, and actual
development depends largely on which routes next week`s systems
take.
Sunday: A weak system will drop down from the North and likely
bring light snow to the Cascades and Idaho Panhandle mountains at
some point Sunday.
Monday: Not much has changed for the low confidence Monday
forecast. New model runs have not brought much clarity; they
continue to have large differences and have not been trending
toward agreement as of yet. Currently, there is the possibility
of light lowland precip, light to moderate mountain snow, breezy
winds, and a decent cold frontal passage. This is generally what
the European model suite has been suggesting. Lowland precip type
would still weigh heavily on the actual arrival time of the
system. On the other hand, the GFS suggests only some flurries and
sprinkles for the northern mountains and valleys on Monday. Will
continue to examine new model runs...
Tuesday and Wednesday: More flip-a-coin type scenarios are
possible. Fortunately, major impacts are not currently expected.
Tuesday model solutions are leaning towards mainly mountain snow,
if anything. Wednesday is similar to Monday in that there may be
widespread lowland precipitation or nothing at all, even for the
mountains. RC

.AVIATION...
00Z TAFS:
Bands of convective showers of rain, snow, and graupel will impact
much of Eastern WA and North Idaho through 03z. Local conditions
under the heaviest showers could fall near marginal VFR or lower.
A few stray lightning strikes will also be possible from Spokane
to Lewiston westward toward Moses Lake however confidence is too
low to include in the forecast at this point and any storms will
be very brief. Winds will be the other aviation concern. Gusty
west to southwest winds of 30-40 mph will be common. Winds could
increase further closer to 50 mph Fri AM around Wenatchee, Moses
Lake, Waterville, and along the East Slopes of the Cascades. We
are also looking at another wave bringing clusters of snow showers
to SE WA and the lower ID Panhandle overnight early Friday morning
roughly 09-13z. A few inches of accumulation will be possible at
Pullman, Winchester, and Deary. Lewiston could also see a mix of
rain/snow with lower confidence for any accumulation. /sb
