AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DETROIT/PONTIAC MI
155 PM EDT FRI OCT 30 2009

.AVIATION...

THE PATTERN OF SHOWERS WILL PERSIST FROM FNT NORTHWARD THIS
AFTERNOON AND BEGIN TO FILL BACK IN THIS EVENING TOWARD PTK AND
INTO THE DETROIT AREA. EXPECT A SHORT PERIOD OF IFR CONDITIONS
ALONG THE COLD FRONT BOTH AHEAD OF, ALONG, AND SHORTLY BEHIND THE
WIND SHIFT. UPSTREAM OBSERVATIONS SUPPORT THIS MAINLY IN TERMS OF
CEILING BUT EXPECT SHOWERS TO BECOME MORE INTENSE AS THE LOW
DEEPENS AND THE FRONT STRENGTHENS WHILE MOVING THROUGH SE
MICHIGAN. THIS WILL MAKE VISIBILITY A CONCERN AS WELL. WE COULD
STILL SEE A THUNDERSTORM BUT COVERAGE WILL BE TOO LIMITED TO
INCLUDE IN THE TERMINAL FORECASTS EVEN AT FRONTAL PASSAGE.

THE WIND FIELD WILL END UP BEING THE MAIN CONCERN WITH THIS
SYSTEM, BOTH IN THE WARM SECTOR THIS AFTERNOON AND TRAILING THE
COLD FRONT TONIGHT. EXPECT THE LOW PRESSURE CENTER TO DEEPEN ABOUT
AS FORECAST BY THE MODELS, REACHING ABOUT 967 MB OVER HUDSON BAY
BY 12Z SAT. THIS WILL ALLOW GRADIENT FLOW TO STRENGTHEN ENOUGH FOR
GUSTS TO 40 KNOTS AS MIXED LAYER DEEPENS IN COLD ADVECTION REGIME
THROUGH SATURDAY AFTERNOON.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED 1153 AM EDT FRI OCT 30 2009

UPDATE...

THE CONVEYOR OF MOISTURE-LADEN GULF AIR CONTINUES THIS AFTERNOON
IN DEEP SW FLOW, WHICH WILL KEEP MOST OF SE MICHIGAN COVERED IN A
PATTERN OF SHOWERS THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. BASED ON REGIONAL RADAR
DATA, HOWEVER, OUR FORECAST UPDATE ADDRESSED SOME GRADIENT IN
REDUCED SHOWER COVERAGE TOWARD THE OHIO BORDER. CORRESPONDING
MINOR UPWARD ADJUSTMENTS WERE ALSO MADE TO THE TEMPERATURE AND
WIND FORECASTS IN THAT AREA.

THERE IS A LOT OF ATTENTION BEING GIVEN TO WIND OBSERVATIONS
UPSTREAM ALONG AND BEHIND THE COLD FRONT WITH THE EXPECTATION OF
ADDITIONAL SUPPORT FOR STRONG WINDS IN SE MICHIGAN TONIGHT AND
SATURDAY. AVAILABLE 12Z GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO SUGGEST A WIND
ADVISORY WILL BE NEEDED WITH THE AFTERNOON FORECAST PACKAGE.

PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED 356 AM EDT FRI OCT 30 2009

SHORT TERM...TODAY AND TONIGHT

A SUBSTANTIAL MOISTURE PLUME CURRENTLY EXTENDS FROM THE WESTERN GULF
OF MEXICO NORTH INTO THE WESTERN LAKES REGION.  A NEARLY CONTINUOUS
BAND OF PRECIPITATION IS POISED WITHIN AN ELONGATED RIBBON OF
ISENTROPIC ASCENT /WITH MOISTURE TRANSPORT BEING SUPPORTED BY 60KT
FLOW ATOP THE FRONTAL SURFACE/. THIS WARM CONVEYOR BELT WILL SLIDE
OVER THE FORECAST AREA AS THE SUPPORTING LONG WAVE TROUGH LIFTS
NORTHEASTWARD INTO WESTERN ONTARIO.

CURRENTLY...SHOWERS WITH EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS ARE ADVANCING INTO
THE SAGINAW VALLEY FROM THE WEST SIDE OF THE PENINSULA.  THIS WILL
CONTINUE TO BE THE THEME THROUGH THE DAY WITH A GRADUAL SHIFT TOWARD
THE EAST.  THE MID-LEVELS WILL CONTINUE TO DESTABILIZE AND SUPPORT
THUNDER POTENTIAL AS THE 60+ KT LOW-LEVEL JET TRANSPORTS A RICH
THETA-E ENVIRONMENT ALONG THE SHARP FRONTAL INVERSION.
ADDITIONALLY...APPRECIABLE WARM ADVECTION BELOW THE INVERSION WILL
AID IN BOOSTING TEMPS INTO THE MID/UPPER 60S IN SPITE OF THE DENSE
OVERCAST SKIES. THE SHOWERS AND SCATTERED STORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO
EVENING SUPPORTED BY THE STRONG COLD FRONT SURGING ACROSS THE REGION.

WINDS WILL STEADILY INCREASE THROUGH THE MORNING HOURS AS THE
SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS.  THERE WILL BE SOME LIMITED
MIXING IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER SUPPORTING GUSTS IN THE 25 MPH
NEIGHBORHOOD.

MORE IMPORTANTLY...WINDS WILL INCREASE SIGNIFICANT ALONG AND IN THE
WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT. THE FRONTAL CIRCULATION IN COMBINATION WITH
A NICE BUBBLE OF ISALLOBARIC FORCING IN THE CONTEXT OF AN UNSTABLE
BOUNDARY LAYER /AS SEEN BY THE 0-500M RICHARDSON NUMBER BECOMING
NEGATIVE/ WILL SUPPORT GUSTS TO 40KTS.  THE GUST POTENTIAL WILL
CONTINUE AS THE SURFACE BASED MIXED LAYER GROWS RAPIDLY UNDER THE
INFLUENCE OF STRONG COLD ADVECTION IN THE MIDST OF 35-45KT FLOW IN
THE LOWEST 1KM.  THE WINDS WILL BE NEAR ADVISORY CRITERIA AND THE
SITUATION WILL BE REASSESSED LATER THIS MORNING ONCE UPSTREAM OBS
OFFER A CLEARER PICTURE.

LONG TERM...

A RETURN TO COLD (BELOW NORMAL) TEMPERATURES FOR THE WEEKEND.

NORTHERN STREAM INFUSION WILL REALLY CAUSE RAPID DEEPENING TO THE
SURFACE CYCLONE (960S MB) AS IT TRACKS NORTHEAST...PASSING THROUGH
JAMES BAY SATURDAY MORNING. STRONG WESTERLY WINDS (GUSTING BETWEEN
40 AND 45 MPH WITHIN A DEEP MIXED LAYER PER NAM/GFS BUFKIT
SOUNDINGS) WILL LEAD TO AN IMPRESSIVE SHOT OF LOW LEVEL COLD
ADVECTION OVER SOUTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN DURING SATURDAY...AS 850 MB
TEMPS FALL TO AROUND -6 C OVER LAKE MICHIGAN. WESTERLY FLOW OFF THE
LAKE AND DIURNAL CYCLONIC INSTABILITY WILL ASSURE PLENTY OF
CLOUDS...WITH A CHANCE FOR SPRINKLES OR EVEN LIGHT SHOWERS IF LOW
LEVEL LAPSE RATES/CAPES END UP BEING A TOUCH GREATER. WILL ERR A BIT
MORE ON THE LIGHT SHOWER SIDE WITH INVERSION HEIGHTS OF 6000+
FEET...AND CARRY AN ISOLATED 20 POP. GOOD CHANCE FOR MANY LOCATIONS
TO SEE AT LEAST A FEW SPRINKLES HOWEVER. WITH THE CLOUDS AND AMOUNT
OF LOW LEVEL COLD AIR ADVECTION...LOOKING AT LITTLE IN THE WAY OF A
TEMPERATURE RECOVERY (USED MAV GUIDANCE)...AND WOULD EXPECT MUCH OF
THE DAY TO BE SUB 50 DEGREES.

WINDS WILL DROP OFF DRAMATICALLY SATURDAY EVENING INTO SATURDAY
NIGHT AS SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE OHIO VALLY. WITH
THE 850 MB THERMAL TROUGH ONLY BEGINNING TO PULL OFF...IT COULD BE A
VERY COLD NIGHT (UPPER 20S) IF WE LOSE THE CLOUDS ALL TOGETHER. WILL
LEAN TOWARD MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES AND THE COLDER MET GUIDANCE (AROUND
30/LOWER 30S MOST LOCATIONS)...AS WINDS SHOULD BE ABLE TO DECOUPLE
BY SUNRISE.

THE SURFACE HIGH/RIDGE WILL BE SLOW TO EXIT EAST...LIMITING THE
BOUNDARY LAYER MIXING DEPTHS ON SUNDAY...ALONG WITH INCREASING HIGH
CLOUDS...WHICH SHOULD HELP HOLD MAX TEMPS CLOSE TO 50 DEGREES (IN
LINE WITH INHERITED FORECAST)...AS 925 MB TEMPS ARE FORECASTED TO
ONLY RISE TO 2-3 C.

COLD FRONT ON TRACK TO MOVE THROUGH SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN ON MONDAY.
WITH CONSISTENT TIMING AND GOOD HEIGHT FALLS PROGGED...WILL UP POPS
10 PERCENT TO HIGH CHANCE.

COLD NORTHWEST FLOW MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY BEHIND THE FRONT COULD
MAKE THINGS INTERESTING WITH RESPECT TO LAKE EFFECT RAIN AND SNOW
SHOWERS ACROSS THE NORTH HALF OF THE CWA. THE 12Z EUROPEAN WAS
INDICATING 1000-850 MB THICKNESSES DROPPING BELOW 1295 M...AND THE
LATEST 00Z GFS IS EVEN COLDER (1285 M OR EVEN SLIGHTLY LOWER).
HOWEVER...THE 00Z EUROPEAN HAS SUBSEQUENTLY BACKED OFF JUST A BIT ON
THE AMOUNT OF COLD AIR...AS BUILDING HEIGHTS/SHORTWAVE RIDGING
QUICKLY ARRIVES ON TUESDAY. WILL HOLD OFF ON THE MENTION OF SNOW
SHOWERS FOR ANOTHER RUN...AS THE CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION FROM LAKE
EFFECT IS LOW ANYWAY MONDAY NIGHT.

MARINE...

A STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS...
THROUGH THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES INTO NORTHWEST ONTARIO. STRONG
SOUTH/SOUTHEAST WINDS WILL LIKELY HAVE GUSTS TO GALE FORCE OVER THE
OPEN WATERS OF LAKE HURON...A POTENTIAL LIMITING FACTOR WILL BE A
RELATIVELY STABLE LAYER OVER THE WATER KEEPING THE EVENT SHORT AND
ON THE LOW END. AS THE WIND TURNS TO THE WEST BEHIND A STRONG COLD
FRONT...UNSTABLE FLOW WILL SET THE STAGE FOR GALE FORCE WINDS ON
LAKE HURON AND LAKE ST CLAIR. CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO QUICKLY
IMPROVE LATE SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER
THE REGION FOR THE REST OF THE WEEKEND.
