.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 353 PM CDT Tue Oct 8 2024

A high pressure over the Northland will lead to continued dry
and warm conditions for the rest of the work week. Flow will
switch to the southwest for Thursday with highs in the 70s
across the area. On Friday, a dry cold front with a weak
shortwave will move through and moderate temperatures back into
the 60s.

Patchy frost is possible again tonight in the Arrowhead and near
the UP in northwest Wisconsin with minimum temperatures near
freezing in those areas. After that, the warm up will cause
minimum temperatures to increase so no frost is expected after
tonight.

Saturday, a stronger shortwave and a much cooler air mass
following will lead to better chances for precipitation. These
chances have further increased from previous forecasts, though
totals will still be light. Following the cold front,
temperatures in the mid levels that are sub-zero Celsius will
cause us to see temperatures near normal in the low to mid 50s
in the early week next week.
