AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
909 PM EDT WED JUN 23 2010

.SYNOPSIS.../ISSUED AT 334 PM/

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE ACROSS NORTHERN
MICHIGAN IN ADVANCE OF AN APPROACHING COLD FRONT. THE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WILL PASS THROUGH LATER TONIGHT...TAKING THE PRECIPITATION
WITH IT...AND ALLOWING MUCH DRIER AIR TO FILTER INTO THE AREA FOR
THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK.

BERGER

&&

.SHORT TERM.../ISSUED AT 909 PM/...TONIGHT

LARGE STRONG/SVR TSTORM MOVING OFF OF DOOR CO WI. OUR AIRMASS...AS
ILLUSTRATED BY THE 00Z APX SOUNDING...IS CONSIDERABLY LESS UNSTABLE
THAN UPSTREAM. EVEN ADJUSTING FOR SOMEWHAT RICHER SURFACE PARCELS TO
THE SW...75/65 ONLY GIVES US A FEW HUNDRED J/KG OF VERY SKINNY
MLCAPE TO PLAY WITH (AND EVEN THAT WILL ONLY DECREASE WITH TIME).
THAT SAID...THE UPSTREAM STORM IS WELL-ORGANIZED...AND MAY BE IN
POSITION TO TAKE BETTER ADVANTAGE OF OUR MEAGER INSTABILITY THAN A
GARDEN-VARIETY CELL. THAT ALSO SAID...IT APPEARS THAT SOME WEAKENING
IS ALREADY OCCURRING.

REGARDLESS...IT SEEMS READILY APPARENT THAT PARTS OF NW LOWER MI
WILL GET WET...AND POPS HAVE BEEN INCREASED IN THE GD TRAVERSE BAY
REGION. EXPECT ONE (OR MORE) ADDITIONAL UPDATES THIS EVENING...AS WE
GET A BETTER LOOK AT HOW THE LAKE WILL TREAT UPSTREAM CONVECTION.
FOR NOW...SVR WX APPEARS DOUBTFUL BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE.

JZ

&&

.LONG TERM.../ISSUED AT 334 PM/...THURSDAY AND BEYOND

WATER VAPOR IMAGERY EARLY THIS AFTERNOON REVEALS A PRETTY POTENT
WESTERLY FLOW STRETCHING FROM THE CENTRAL PACIFIC EAST THROUGH
CENTRAL NOAM...COURTESY OF HEIGHTS SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL OVER THE
SUBTROPICS ALONG WITH MULTIPLE LOW CENTERS ALONG ABOUT 50N.  THE
UPPER LOW CENTERED OVER WESTERN HUDSON BAY EARLY THIS AFTERNOON WILL
STRENGTHEN WITH TIME IN RESPONSE TO DOWNSTREAM BLOCKING OVER
GREENLAND...WHICH WILL MAINTAIN WEST NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT OVER OUR
AREA WITH THE PRIMARY POLAR FRONT NEAR OUR GENERAL VICINITY THROUGH
THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.  THERE ARE SIGNS...HOWEVER...THAT TOWARDS
EARLY NEXT WEEK THE AFOREMENTIONED BLOCKING TOWARDS GREENLAND WILL
STRENGTHEN AND CAUSE THE UPSTREAM FLOW TO SLOW...AND BUCKLE WITH
STRENGTHENING CENTRAL NOAM RIDGING ALONG WITH TROUGHING ALONG EACH
COAST.  NEARLY ALL DETERMINISTIC/ENSEMBLE GUIDANCE IS ON BOARD WITH
THIS IDEA WHICH WOULD BRING A DRYING/COOLING TREND TO THE AREA BY
EARLY NEXT WEEK.

PERIOD STARTS WITH DEPARTING MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE AND COOLER/DRIER
AIR FILTERING INTO THE REGION FROM THE NORTH AND WEST AS SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS RAPIDLY OVERHEAD DURING THE DAY.  AS WE HAVE
SEEN OVER THE PAST FEW EVENTS...EXPECT SOME STRATUS TO BE STUCK
UNDER THE DEVELOPING SUBSIDENCE INVERSION...AND THE EVOLUTION OF ANY
STRATUS WILL BE THE BIGGEST QUESTION IN THE THURSDAY FORECAST.  WILL
INCREASE CLOUD COVER SUBSTANTIALLY THROUGH THE MORNING...WITH
CLEARING BY AFTERNOON. THIS WILL HAVE AN IMPACT ON TEMPS...WITH
HIGHS OCCURRING LATE IN THE DAY WITH A SLOW INITIAL DIURNAL RISE.
T85S WILL SUPPORT MID/UPPER 70S...BUT GIVEN THE SLOWER RISE AND
LIMITED VERTICAL MIXING DUE TO SUBSIDENCE ALOFT...WILL LOWER HIGHS
TO THE LOWER 70S OVER EASTERN UPPER AND EXTREME NORTHERN
LOWER...INCREASING TO THE UPPER 70S FROM GRAYLING SOUTH AND EAST
WHERE THERE WILL BE THE MOST SUN THROUGH THE DAY.

CONTINUED CLEARING ALONG WITH MORE SIGNIFICANT LEVEL DRYING SPELLS
A COOL NIGHT THURSDAY NIGHT AND HAVE LITTLE REASON TO DEPART FROM
GOING LOWS WHICH ARE AT OR BELOW GUIDANCE.  THIS YIELDS LOWS IN THE
LOWER TO MIDDLE 40S.  WOULDN/T BE SURPRISED TO SEE ONE OR TWO
LOCATIONS DROP JUST BELOW 40 IF WE REMAIN FULLY CLEAR THROUGH THE
NIGHT GIVEN NEARLY OVERHEAD SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE.

HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES EAST OF THE AREA ON FRIDAY WITH RETURN FLOW
DEVELOPING.  DEEP MOISTURE REMAINS SOUTH AND WEST OF THE AREA
THROUGH THE DAY...HOWEVER...WITH ONLY MODEST WARM AIR ADVECTION.
THE RESULT SHOULD BE A P/MSUNNY DAY WITH SOME HIGH CLOUDINESS
SPILLING EAST FROM CONVECTION LIKELY TO DEVELOP OVER THE NORTHERN
MIDWEST DUE TO A SMALL SCALE NORTHERN STREAM DISTURBANCE.  T85S WARM
A DEGREE OR TWO AND WITH MORE SUNSHINE EXPECT HIGHS IN THE MIDDLE TO
UPPER 70S FROM NORTH TO SOUTH WITH COOLER TEMPS ALONG THE
LAKESHORES...PARTICULARLY ALONG LAKE MICHIGAN.

A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES IN THE WEST-NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT LOOK TO
IMPACT THE AREA THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEKEND.  WHILE I HAVE LITTLE
TO NO CONFIDENCE ON THE DETAILS OF THESE FEATURES...I THINK IT WILL
BE A MORE UNSETTLED PERIOD AS THESE FEATURES INTERACT WITH A NEARBY
FRONTAL ZONE. THIS SETUP COULD FAVOR ONE TO TWO MCS/S IMPACTING
THE REGION...SO WE/LL HAVE TO KEEP AN EYE ON THIS PERIOD FOR HEAVY
RAIN/SVR POTENTIAL. WILL CERTAINLY KEEP POPS IN THE CHANCE
CATEGORY AS CONFIDENCE IN PLACEMENT/TIMING IN DOUBT. DROPPED
TEMPS JUST SLIGHTLY DURING THIS PERIOD GIVEN POTENTIAL CONVECTIVE
CONTAMINATION...WITH HIGHS LOWER THAN THOSE IMPLIED BY THE TEMPS
AT H85.

AS WE MOVE INTO THE FIRST HALF OF NEXT WEEK...THE FLOW AMPLIFICATION
MENTIONED ABOVE SHOULD FINALLY BE ABLE TO DRIVE THE NEARBY
BAROCLINIC ZONE SOUTH...WITH DRIER AIR FILTERING INTO THE REGION.
WILL MAINTAIN GOING DRY FORECAST THROUGH THE END OF THE PERIOD AND
SLOWLY BEGIN TO LOWER TEMPERATURES.  IT/S LOOKING MORE AND MORE LIKE
AN ANOMALOUSLY COOL PERIOD GIVEN T85S DROPPING BELOW 10C WITH THE
ECMWF SUGGESTING T85S MAY MAKE A RUN AT 0C!!  WILL DROP
HIGHS...PARTICULARLY ON TUESDAY/WEDNESDAY /DOWN ABOUT A CATEGORY/
INTO THE LOWER/MIDDLE 70S...BUT THESE MAY STILL BE TOO OPTIMISTIC IF
GOING TRENDS IN THE GUIDANCE CONTINUE.  IN ANY CASE...TEMPERATURES
BELOW SEASONAL NORMS ARE LOOKING INCREASINGLY LIKELY...AS WELL AS
DRY CONDITIONS.

ARNOTT

&&

.MARINE.../ISSUED AT 334 PM/

SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL SHIFT NORTHWEST THIS EVENING AS A COLD FRONT
PUSHES THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES REGION. BEFORE THE COLD FRONT MOVES
THROUGH THIS EVENING...SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS ARE
POSSIBLE.

NORTHWEST WINDS WILL FRESHEN BEHIND THE DEPARTING COLD FRONT
DURING THE DAY THURSDAY WITH CLEARING SKIES. CONDITIONS WILL
APPROACH THOSE HAZARDOUS TO SMALL CRAFT DURING THE DAY THURSDAY.

HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVERHEAD THURSDAY NIGHT WITH MOSTLY CLEAR
SKIES AND WINDS BECOMING LIGHT.

ARNOTT

&&

.AVIATION.../ISSUED AT 728 PM/...VALID FOR 00Z TAFS

WAVY COLD FRONT PRESSING EASTWARD ACROSS WI. STRONG TSRA HAVE
RECENTLY DEVELOPED IN NORTHERN WI...W AND N OF GRB. HOWEVER...
AIRMASS OVER NORTHERN MI IS ONLY MARGINALLY UNSTABLE (AT BEST) GIVEN
LIMITED SUNSHINE TODAY. THUS...UPSTREAM STORMS WILL WEAKEN...WITH A
BAND OF SHOWERS (AND MAYBE A RUMBLE OF THUNDER) FOR THE TAF SITES
LATE EVENING AND EARLY OVERNIGHT. COOLER AND DRIER AIR WILL ENTER
THE REGION ON FRIDAY...THOUGH APN COULD SEE MVFR CONDITIONS FOR A
FEW HOURS IN THE MORNING.
