Area forecast discussion, Feb 15, 9:55 AM EST, 6 hours 3 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NORTHERN INDIANA 955 AM EST THU FEB 15 2007 .UPDATE... HAVE UPDATED GRIDS/ZFP FOR LAKE EFFECT SNOW. SURFACE REPORTS INCLUDED UP TO AN INCH OF SNOW AN HOUR WITH HEAVY SNOW REPORTED AT BOTH BENTON HARBOR AND SOUTH BEND SINCE 13Z. DID NOT REISSUE ADVISORY/WARNING...BUT UPDATED FOR HIGHER AMOUNTS OVER FAR SW LOWER MI FOR 2 TO 4 INCHES/BERRIEN AND CASS COUNTIES WITH LESSER AMOUNTS FARTHER FROM THE LAKE FOR ST JOE MI AND ST JOE/ELKHART INDIANA. EXPECT QUITE HIGH SNOW TO LIQUID RATIONS/ABOUT 25 TO 1 GIVEN TEMPERATURES ONLY 5F TO 15F. MULTI-CELLULAR BANDS HAVE REESTABLISHED THEMSELVES AFTER MESO LOW MOVED THROUGH ABOUT 09Z. NOTED SOMEWHAT OF A DIURNAL TREND IN THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW INTENSITY OVER THE LAST FEW WEEKS OF INTENSITIES INCREASING LATE OVERNIGHT AND DECREASING DURING THE LATE MORNING HOURS. GIVEN THIS TREND AND GIVEN THE ANTICIPATION OF WINDS BACKING MORE TO THE WEST...EXPECT MULTI-CELL BANDS TO TRANSLATE EAST AND WEAKEN THE AFTERNOON. && .AVIATION... ELONGATED LAKE EFFECT BAND EXTENDS FROM WEST TO EAST FROM AL PORTE COUNTY INTO NOBLE COUNTY AND THEN SE FROM THERE. SOME REPORTS OF REDUCED VSBYS HAVE BEEN RECEIVED BUT ARE ONLY FOR BRIEF PERIODS. HAVE MADE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO KSBN TO REFLECT THIS AND EXPECTED TREND NEXT SEVERAL HOURS. ADDITIONAL SNOW SHWERS SEEN UPSTREAM ACROSS KGRR AREA. THESE SHOULD ALSO MAKE IT DOWN THIS WAT AND BRING LGT SNOW SHOWERS TO KSBN AND POSSIBLY KFWA. CUT PRECIP OFF BY LATE EVE AT KSBN AS FLOW BEGINS TO TURN AND INVERSION HGTS INCREASE. && .SHORT TERM... TODAY AND TONIGHT FOCUS WILL BE ON LAKE EFFECT EVENT UNDERWAY. SINGLE BAND THAT MIGRATED FROM PARTS OF ILLINOIS INTO NW INDIANA/SW MICHIGAN WEAKENED SOMEWHAT BUT DID BEGIN TO EXTEND MUCH FURTHER INLAND FROM BERRIEN COUNTY WELL SOUTH INTO CASS AND MIAMI COUNTIES IN INDIANA. NOT MANY SFC REPORTS TO USE IN THIS AREA BUT SUSPECT SOME DECENT BURSTS TAKING THINGS DOWN AROUND A MILE BRIEFLY. SHORT WAVE DROPPING THROUGH LWR MI INTO NORTHERN INDIANA DID INCREASE SOME OF THE UPSTREAM ACTIVITY. HOWEVER...BANDS ARE RATHER SMALL AND NOT AMOUNTING TO MUCH. EXAMINATION OF KGRB SOUNDINGS SHOWS A LOT OF DRY AIR IN THE SOUNDING WHICH IS BEING ENTRAINED INTO THE LAKE. DESPITE DELTA TS IN THE MID TO UPPER TEENS AND EQUILIBRIUM LEVELS OF 6 TO 7 KFT...BANDS HAVING A HARD TIME GETTING GOING ANY FURTHER. 06Z NAM-WRF SHOWING THIS QUITE WELL WITH OMEGA ND MSTR MUCH MORE LIMITED AND NOT AS IMPRESSIVE AS PAST RUNS. HEADLINES WERE ISSUED YESTERDAY FOR MAJORITY OF THE ACCUMS FALLING LAST NIGHT AND TODAY AND WITH LITTLE OVERALL ACCUMS BEING REPORTED LAST NIGHT...WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO EVEN GET CLOSE TO CRITERIA VALUES. AFTER COLLABORATION...WILL DROP ALL HEADLINES AND GO WITH LIKELY POPS AND 1 TO 3 INCH LOCAL ACCUMS IN BERRIEN AND CASS COUNTIES AND LOCAL INCH OR SO OUT SIDE THESE AREAS AS WAVE MOVES THROUGH AND DECENT BAND NOW ENTERING THE NORTHERN CWA DRIFTS SOUTH. A STRAY REPORT OF 3 TO 4 INCHES IS NOT OUT OF THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY BUT THINK AMOUNTS WILL BE LESS OVERALL. TONIGHT WNW FLOW WILL KEEP SOME LIGHT SNOWSHOWERS GOING ACROSS FAR SW LWR MI COUNTIES BUT AGAIN AMOUNTS DON/T APPEAR TO BE OF CONCERN SO WILL LOWER TO CHC POPS. TEMPS TODAY WILL CLIMB INTO THE TEENS TODAY...STILL WELL BELOW NORMAL. TONIGHT LOWS WILL DROP INTO THE SINGLE DIGITS WITH SOME BELOW ZERO READINGS POSSIBLE. ONLY AREAS TO REMAIN WARMER WILL BE ACROSS FAR SW LWR WHERE TEMPS WILL REMAIN ABOVE ZERO. && .LONG TERM... VRY UNCERTAIN PATTN TRANSITION THIS PD AS POLAR VORTEX OVR ERN CANADA DEAMPLIFIES ALTHOUGH ENHANCED SRN STREAM FLW CONTS AND OF WHICH CONTS TO BE POORLY HANDLED BY MED RANGE GUIDANCE AND NO DOUBT REFLECTED IN OSCILLATING MODEL TRENDS W/PLACEMENT AND INTENSITY OF SYSTEM MID NXT WEEK. IN THE INTERIM...ROBUST NRN STREAM SW TROUGH OUT NR 50N/150W OVERTOPPING FLAT MID LVL RIDGE ALG THE BC COAST AND PROGGED TO DIG/DEEPEN SEWD INTO THE SRN LAKES/OH VALLEY SATURDAY. MIX OF VARIOUS THETA-E SFC/S INDICATED PRONOUNCED SLAB ASCENT OVERTOP RENEWED ARCTIC WEDGE AND DECENT SUB TROPICAL MSTR PLUME EXTENDING BACK TO HAWAII. MOST MODEL SOLUTIONS RATHER ROBUST BUT PREFER MORE INTENSE LOOK OF GFS SOLUTION ALTHOUGH IT MAY BE A BIT FAST OVERALL. WILL HIT POPS QUITE A BIT HARDER AT THIS POINT FRI NIGHT AND FIRST HALF OF SATURDAY W/SVRL INCHES OF SNOW PSBL. SECONDARY COLD SURGE BEHIND THIS SYS WILL AGAIN FAVOR SOME LK EFFECT ALTHOUGH A NW FLW TRAJECTORY AND LOSS OF SYNOPTIC MSTR DOES NOT BODE MUCH THREAT AT THIS POINT FOR ANYTHING SIGNIFICANT. AFT THAT...TEMPS BECOME A REAL CHALLENGE GIVEN DEEP SNOWPACK IN PLACE AND DEEPENING SW FLW AHD OF INTENSE MID WEEK SYS. HIGHLY DOUBT MIXED LYR WILL DEEPEN SUFFICIENTLY OVR SNOW FIELD ESP W/WHAT OUGHT TO BE A LOT OF LOW/MID LVL CLD CVR TO ATTAIN PROGGED MEX MOS MAX TEMPS ESP TUE AND WED. THUS WILL KEEP W/NOTION OF UNDERCUTTING NUMBERS THROUGH THE WEEK. DETAILS OF THIS NXT SYS REMAIN LARGELY UNCLEAR ESP IN LIGHT OF POOR RUN CONTINUITY AND SIG MODEL PHASE DIFFERENCES. OP GFS LOOKS WAY TOO PROGRESSIVE ONCE AGAIN W/MAJORITY OF GFS ENSEMBLES SLOWER. SAME CAN BE SAID FOR LAST SYS WHICH AGAIN HARBORS SOME INSIGHT HERE W/SLOWER EWD EJECTION CERTAINLY PSBL AND WHICH WOULD FAVOR SYS LIFTING OUT FURTHER N.
