AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DETROIT/PONTIAC MI
305 PM EDT SUN JUN 5 2005

.SHORT TERM...SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY.

MAIN ACTION IN THE SHORT TERM IS JUST GETTING STARTED...AND WILL
CONTINUE THROUGH MUCH OF THE EVENING. STRONG DESTABILIZATION HAS
OCCURRED TODAY WITH PLENTY OF SUNSHINE COUPLING WITH ABJECTION OF
WARM AND MOIST AIR FROM KENTUCKY/OHIO VALLEY. INITIAL CONVECTIVE
ACTIVITY HAS FIRED ON LAKE BOUNDARY/OLD CONVECTIVE BOUNDARY IN
SOUTHWEST LOWER...WITH NEXT BATCH ALREADY ON THE HEEL OF THIS ON
MAIN SHORTWAVE ENERGY LIFTING NORTHEAST THROUGH ILLINOIS. SHEAR WILL
BE SUFFICIENT (30-40KTS) FOR SUPERCELLS GIVEN THE INSTABILITY 2000+
J/KG MIXED LAYER...3000+ SFC). TORNADO WATCH IS ALREADY OUT AND WILL
SHAPE THE GRIDS TO THIS POTENTIAL THROUGH 00Z.

WOULD EXPECT LINGERING ACTIVITY AFTER 00Z...MORE CONCENTRATED IN THE
00Z-04Z AREA...BUT ALSO POSSIBLE OVERNIGHT. FOR NOW...WILL GO FOR A
CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS 00Z ON...AND REFINE LATER THIS EVENING BASED
ON HOW THIS SVR WX EVENT EVOLVES THIS EVENING.

QUIET TOMORROW IN THE WAKE OF UPPER TROF RESPONSIBLE FOR TONIGHTS
WX...BUT TEMPERATURES DO NOT COOL OFF ALL THAT MUCH WITH WEST WINDS
IN THE LOW LEVELS. WOULD EXPECT MID 80S TO BE PREVALENT WITH THE
SUNSHINE EXPECTED...WITH HUMIDITY LEVELS DONE -VS- TODAY.

&&

.LONG TERM...MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY.

THE LULL CONTINUES INTO TUESDAY...BUT ADDITIONAL TROFFING IS ALREADY
DIGGING INTO THE WESTERN CONUS...PROMISING TO SET UP AN ACTIVE WX
PATTERN FOR THE CENTRAL CONUS...WITH THIS ACTIVITY FEEDING ALONG THE
NORTHERN EDGE OF THE EASTERN RIDGE INTO THIS GENERAL VICINITY. THE
POSITION OF THE RIDGE (AND ASSOCIATED CAPPING) WILL BE THE IMPORTANT
PART OF THIS FORECAST...AS THE NORTHERN EDGE WILL BE WAFFLING VERY
CLOSE THE THE CWA. WILL LEAVE THUNDERSTORMS IN THE FORECAST IN THE
WED THRU SAT TIMEFRAME...WITH THE BEST CHANCE ATTM APPEARING TO BE
THU/FRI.

TEMPERATURES TO REMAIN IN THE 80S UNTIL LATE IN THE FORECAST...AND
EVEN THEN...WILL JUST EDGE THEM BACK A FEW DEGREES AS BASIC PATTERN
HOLDS. THERE DOES REMAIN A HINT OF ENOUGH SHORTWAVE ENERGY TO KNOCK
BACK THE RIDGE SOME MORE...BUT THIS HAS VARIED IN MODEL RUNS OVER
THE PAST FEW DAYS. WITH THIS EXPECTED TRANSITION...WILL TAPER OFF
PRECIPITATION CHANCES THROUGH THE WEEKEND...EXPECT THE FOCUS TO
SETTLE A BIT FURTHER SOUTH. THAT SAID...12Z GFS HAS ALREADY DELAYED
THIS IDEA FURTHER WITH NO REAL SIGNIFICANT COOLING UNTIL SUNDAY
NIGHT INTO EARLY THE FOLLOWING WEEK.

&&

.AVIATION...ISSUED AT 115 PM EDT.

VERY UNSTABLE AIRMASS SETTING UP OVER SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN THIS
AFTERNOON...AS TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO RISE INTO THE UPPER 80S TO
LOWER 90S. LOW LEVEL CAP CONTINUES TO WEAKEN AND WILL BE ALL BUT
GONE BY 18Z. SOUTHWEST FLOW OFF OF LAKE MICHIGAN SHOULD INITIATE
CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT OVER SW LOWER MICHIGAN. VISIBLE SATELLITE
IMAGERY INDICATES DEVELOPING CU FIELD. LOOKING FOR THUNDERSTORMS
BETWEEN 21-00Z OVER SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN. ASSUMING THE STORMS WORK
OVER THE ATMOSPHERE...NOT ANTICIPATING ANY ADDITIONAL STORMS TONIGHT
WITH THE ACTUAL COLD FRONT...BUT THIS WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED.
DRY SLOT PUNCHING INTO THE REGION TOMORROW MORNING SHOULD ASSURE
CLEAR/PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES...WITH SW WINDS PICKING UP DURING THE
MORNING...AS WE BEGIN TO TAP INTO 30 KNOT WINDS BETWEEN 925-850 MB.
