AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DETROIT/PONTIAC MI
140 PM EDT THU JUL 19 2007

.AVIATION...
COLD FRONT CURRENTLY PUSHING SOUTH THROUGH THE DETROIT METRO AREA WITH
A LINE OF SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS.  THIS LINE HAS PUSHED
SOUTH OF DTW AND WILL PRODUCE MVFR CONDITIONS BOTH CEILINGS AND
VSBYS WITH HEAVIEST OF PRECIP.  ANOTHER BROKEN LINE OF CONVECTION
EXTENDS FROM OSCODA TO GRAND RAPIDS.  THIS LINE IS MOVING QUICKLY
SOUTHEAST AND IS ASSOCIATED MORE WITH AN UPPER LEVEL WAVE.  EXPECT
THIS ACTIVITY TO WEAKEN AS IT MOVES SOUTHEAST AND GETS AWAY FROM THE
UPPER SUPPORT.  EXPECT MBS/FNT TO BE EFFECTED 18-20Z AND HAVE LEFT
OUT ALL MENTIONS OF PRECIP AT DET/DTW AT THIS TIME.  AFTER 00Z...VFR
CONDITIONS AT ALL SITES AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE
NORTHWEST.

&&

.UPDATE...
SURFACE FRONT AND SCATTERED LIGHT SHOWERS ACCOMPANYING IT IS PUSHING
SLOWLY SOUTH THROUGH THE DETROIT METROPOLITAN AREA AND AS IT
CONTINUES SOUTH...SO DOES ARE CHANCES FOR MUCH NEEDED RAINFALL. THE
FRONT WILL DROP INTO OHIO THIS AFTERNOON.  IN THE MEANTIME...VERY
POTENT 500MB TROUGH AS SEEN ON WATER VAPOR IS OVER THE U.P. AND WILL
BE SWINGING ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF OF LOWER MICHIGAN THIS
AFTERNOON.  SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ALREADY HAVE BEEN
INCREASING IN COVERAGE AND INTENSITY WITH THIS FEATURE.  WILL KEEP
LIKELY GOING NEAR THE OHIO BORDER AS INSTABILITY WITH THE FRONT WILL
CONTINUE FOR MOST OF THE AFTERNOON.  ELSEWHERE WILL KEEP A SMALL
CHANCE GOING THIS AFTERNOON AS THE POTENT VORT MAX APPROACHES THE
AREA.  LIS REMAIN DECENT AT ABOUT MINUS 5 HOWEVER CAPES WILL
CONTINUE TO DECREASE THIS AFTERNOON AS THE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE DOES.
THE BEST CHANCES WILL BE IN THE THUMB AND NORTHERN SAGINAW VALLEY
REGION CLOSES TO THE VORT AND WHERE THERE WILL BE A BIT MORE LOW
LEVEL MOISTURE.

SHOULD SEE A FEW MORE DEGREE RISE IN TEMPS MOST PLACES BEFORE
BECOMING NEAR STEADY DURING THE AFTERNOON WITH A GOOD AMOUNT OF
CLOUD COVER AND COLD AIR ADVECTION BEHIND THE FRONT.

&&

.AVIATION...

PATCHY MVFR STRATUS/FOG WILL FADE THIS MORNING AS A TROUGH MOVES
THROUGH SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN. THIS FEATURE WILL TRIGGER SCATTERED
SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH MIDDAY...BEFORE NORTHWEST
FLOW IN BEHIND IT FILTERS IN DRIER/MORE STABLE AIR. VFR CONDITIONS
ARE EXPECTED LATE TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE BEGINS TO
BUILD INTO THE GREAT LAKES.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED 306 AM EDT THU JUL 19 2007

SHORT TERM...TODAY AND TONIGHT

ACTIVE MCS TO THE SOUTH OF THE AREA...AND ANOTHER TRACKING IN BEHIND
IT SHOULD KEEP CONVECTION SOMEWHAT SUBDUED TODAY ACROSS THE AREA AS
MUCH OF THE INFLOW OF MOIST/UNSTABLE AIR WILL BE INTERRUPTED. EVEN
SO...AN APPROACHING SHORTWAVE TROUGH SHOULD BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE
FOCUS FOR SCATTERED TO PERHAPS NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
TODAY. INDEED...ISOLATED TO WIDELY SCATTERED SHOWERS AND A FEW
STORMS ARE ALREADY BUBBLING OVER THE AREA. WITH THE BEST INSTABILITY
FOCUSED WELL SOUTH OF THE AREA...THE RISK OF SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE
LIMITED GREATLY TODAY. AFTER THE PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT THAT IS
ASSOCIATED WITH THIS AFOREMENTIONED SHORTWAVE...ONLY EXPECT A FEW
LINGERING SHOWERS OVER LAKE HURON INTO PARTS OF THE THUMB AS THE
SHORTWAVE DEEPENS INTO AN UPPER LOW AND THE COLD POOL BRUSHES THE
AREA AND PROVIDED ELEVATED INSTABILITY INTO THE EVENING. BEYOND
MIDNIGHT OR SO...ANY SHOWERS SHOULD BE EAST OF THE REGION.

TEMPERATURES WILL START THE DAY MILD...AND CLOSE TO NORMAL...BUT IN
THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT...COOLER AIR WILL FILTER INTO THE AREA
AND EXPECT LOWS IN THE 50S IN MOST AREA TONIGHT (AFTER REACHING
HIGHS IN THE 70S TO AROUND 80).

LONG TERM...

TROPOPAUSE UNDULATION NOW TRACKING THROUGH NORTHWEST ONTARIO...AS
00Z RAOB OUT OF PICKLE LAKE INDICATED AT RELATIVELY WARM 200 MB
TEMP OF -43 C...INDICATIVE OF THE STRATOSPHERIC AIR. THIS
UNDULATION WILL BE JUST EAST OF LAKE HURON/SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN BY
FRIDAY MORNING...WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE (1020+ MB) BUILDING
INTO THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES REGION DURING THE DAY. LOW LEVEL COLD
ADVECTION THROUGH THE DAY WILL BE OFFSET BY THE MID JULY
INSOLATION...AS 850 MB TEMPS FORECASTED TO HOLD NEARLY STEADY AT
+7 TO +8 C. WITH A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF LOW LEVEL CU EXPECTED
(PER CU RULES-SCT TO BKN)...MAX TEMPS SHOULD BE HARD PRESSED TO
CLIMB OUT OF THE LOWER 70S ACROSS MOST AREAS...WITH THE MID 70S
CONFINED TO THE SOUTH THIRD OF THE CWA.

THIS WILL SET UP A VERY COOL NIGHT FOR JULY STANDARDS. WITH THE
WEAKENING PRESSURE GRADIENT ALLOWING WINDS TO DECOUPLE BY
MORNING...SUSPECT THE GOOD RADIATORS WILL FALL INTO THE UPPER 40S TO
AROUND 50 DEGREES FRIDAY NIGHT/SATURDAY MORNING.

STILL EXPECTING ONLY A SLOW MODERATION IN TEMPS OVER THE WEEKEND AS
HEIGHTS ARE SLOW TO RISE. WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING INTO
NORTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN ON SATURDAY...PER 00Z GFS ENSEMBLE
MEAN...THE LOW LEVEL FLOW OVER SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN WILL BE OUT OF THE
NORTHEAST....COMING OFF LAKE HURON. THIS SHOULD RESULT IN MAXES
BELOW 80 DEGREES ONCE AGAIN...AS 850 MB TEMPS PEAK OUT AROUND 10 C.
WITH A RELATIVELY DRY AIRMASS AND SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE OVER
SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN...MINS SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY NIGHT WILL BE
SIMILAR TO FRIDAY NIGHT. THIS IS NEAR RECORD COLD FOR THE DATE (JULY
22)...AS THE RECORD LOW AT FNT IS 47 DEGREES SET IN 1947.

850 MB TEMPS MODIFY INTO THE LOWER TEENS ON SUNDAY...SUPPORTIVE OF
NEAR/LOWER 80S WITH SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE REMAINING SITUATED OVER
THE CWA.

THE SURFACE HIGH IS EXPECTED TO SLIP INTO THE OHIO VALLEY ON
MONDAY...ALLOWING FOR A LIGHT WESTERLY GRADIENT TO DEVELOP...WHICH
SHOULD TRANSLATE TO MAXES IN THE LOW TO MID 80S BASED ON 850 MB
TEMPS CLIMBING INTO THE MID TEENS.

THE 00Z EUROPEAN STILL HOLDING ON TO THE IDEA OF A RETROGRADING
UPPER LOW NEXT WEEK...BUT IS WEAKER AND FARTHER SOUTH...RESULTING IN
A MINIMAL IMPACT ON OUR TEMPS. THUS...THE CHANCES FOR TEMPS 90+
DEGREES LOOKS PRETTY GOOD BY WEDNESDAY WITH 850 MB TEMPS UP AROUND
20 C. WITH THAT INCREASE IN HEAT AND HUMIDITY...FUTURE SHIFTS MAY
NEED TO ADD LOW CHANCE POPS TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY WHEN A TRIGGER BECOMES
MORE OBVIOUS.

MARINE...

A STRONG MID LEVEL WAVE WILL MOVE ACROSS LAKE HURON THIS EVENING.
THERE IS A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORM THROUGH THE EVENING...ASSOCIATED
WITH THIS FEATURE. THE BETTER CHANCES FOR THUNDERSTORMS WILL RESIDE
OVER LAKES ST CLAIR AND ERIE...CLOSER TO THE SURFACE BOUNDARY. A
STRENGTHENING SURFACE LOW WILL MOVE ACROSS THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES
TONIGHT. AN INCREASING NORTHWESTERLY PRESSURE GRADIENT ALONG WITH
STRONG LOW LEVEL COLD AIR ADVECTION FOR LATE JULY STANDARDS WILL
RESULT IN WIND GUSTS TO 30 KNOTS OR SO LATE TONIGHT INTO FRIDAY.
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR THE NEARSHORE WATERS OF
LAKE HURON. IT IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT A GALE WARNING WILL
ALSO BE NEEDED FOR PARTS OF THE OPEN WATERS. WILL LET THE DAYSHIFT
RE-EVALUATE THIS BASED ON HOW STRONG WINDS BECOME ON LAKE SUPERIOR
DURING THE DAY (IN BEHIND THE COLD FRONT).
