AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
356 PM EDT TUE AUG 9 2011

.SYNOPSIS.../ISSUED AT 321 PM/

THE COLD FRONT THAT BROUGHT TODAYS ACTIVE WEATHER WILL CONTINUE TO
PULL OFF TO THE EAST AND HIGH PRESSURE WILL QUICKLY TAKE OVER. THIS
WILL BRING COOLER AND MORE SETTLED WEATHER BACK TO THE REGION...FOR
THE MOST PART. THE EXCEPTION WILL BE THE...WAIT FOR IT...TYPICAL
LAKE EFFECT AREAS...THAT WILL ACTUALLY SEE THE FIRST LAKE EFFECT
RAIN SHOWERS OF THE SEASON. THESE WILL OCCUR TONIGHT DOWNWIND OF
LAKES MICHIGAN AND SUPERIOR. THEN HIGH AND DRY CONDITIONS FOR
THURSDAY AND MOST OF FRIDAY...BEFORE SCATTERED LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS
RETURN FOR THE WEEKEND.

BERGER

&&

.SHORT TERM.../ISSUED AT 321 PM/...TONIGHT

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE ACROSS NE LOWER AND E
UPPER MI LATE THIS AFTERNOON. LIMITED INSTABILITY AND VERY MARGINAL
DEEP LAYER SHEAR HAS PRECLUDED MUCH IN THE WAY OF SEVERE WEATHER.
THE COLD FRONT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONVECTION WILL EXIT NE LOWER
BY 22Z...TAKING THE LINGERING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH IT.

IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT...MODELS SUGGEST A WEAK SECONDARY TROUGH
WILL SWING THROUGH NRN MI BY MID-LATE EVENING -- PERHAPS
SUPPORTING ANOTHER BRIEF PERIOD OF SCATTERED SHOWERS. THESE
SHOWERS ARE CURRENTLY POPPING ACROSS NRN/CENTRAL WI AND CENTRAL
UPPER MI. GIVEN THAT IT IS UNCERTAIN WHETHER THE SHOWERS WILL
SURVIVE LAKE MICHIGAN OR THROUGH THE LATE EVENING DIURNAL CYCLE...
WILL LIMIT RAIN CHANCES TO 20 PCT.

THEN...BY LATER THIS EVENING AND ESPECIALLY OVERNIGHT...STRONG
CAA DEVELOPS AS AN IMPRESSIVE 500 MB THROUGH /HEIGHT FALL CENTER/
DROPS IN ACROSS THE NRN GREAT LAKES. 850 MB TEMPS DROP TO THE
UPPER SINGLE DIGITS BY LATE TONIGHT /+6-8C/ AND 850 MB WINDS
INCREASE TO 30-35 KTS. WITH LAKE TEMPS AVERAGING +21-23C...OVER-
WATER INSTABILITY WILL BE OUTSTANDING. WILL BRING LAKE EFFECT RAIN
SHOWERS INTO THE FORECAST FOR PARTS OF NW LOWER AND E UPPER FROM
LATE EVENING ONWARD. MODEL SOUNDINGS ARE INCONCLUSIVE AS TO
WHETHER LIFTED PARCELS WILL GET BEYOND THE CAP CENTERED AROUND
600 MB. REGARDLESS...WARM LAKES AND VIGOROUS MIXING WILL SUPPORT
NUMEROUS LIGHT SHOWERS /AT LEAST/ DOWNWIND OF LAKE MICHIGAN. DELTA
T/S ARE A BIT LESS OFF OF LAKE SUPERIOR...WHERE ONLY SPRINKLES
ARE ANTICIPATED. LOWS TONIGHT WILL FALL INTO THE 50S AREA-WIDE.

SMITH

&&

.LONG TERM.../ISSUED AT 321 PM/...WEDNESDAY AND BEYOND

WEDNESDAY THROUGH NEXT TUESDAY...EXTENDED MODELS ARE IN DECENT
AGREEMENT THAT THERE WILL BE A FAIRLY PROGRESSIVE PATTERN THROUGH
THE PERIOD. THERE WILL BE AT LEAST A COUPLE OF TROUGHS TO CONTEND
WITH LEADING TO CHANCES FOR RAIN. OVERALL...AVERAGE TO SLIGHTLY
BELOW AVERAGE TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED. THE MAIN FORECAST CONCERNS
REVOLVE AROUND POPS...ESPECIALLY WEDNESDAY MORNING AND OVER THE
UPCOMING WEEKEND.

WEDNESDAY...ONGOING LAKE EFFECT IS EXPECTED TO LINGER INTO THE
MORNING AS DECENT OVER LAKE INSTABILITY CONTINUES (LAKE/850 MB DELTA
TS IN THE MID TEENS) SO HAVE EXTENDED POPS IN NORTHWEST FLOW AREAS
ACCORDINGLY. MOISTURE THEN DECREASES IN THE AFTERNOON (MEAN 850-700
MB RH FALLS FROM 85 PERCENT AT 12Z TO 40 PERCENT AT 00Z THU) SO HAVE
ENDED ACTIVITY. HIGHS ONLY IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 70S.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY NIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE
REGION WITH SLOWLY BUILDING HEIGHTS. WARM ADVECTION/THETA-E RIDGING
INCREASES WITH TIME BUT CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO INCLUDE
POPS AT THIS TIME (ALTHOUGH CAN/T RULE OUT A SHOWER OR T-STORM
POPPING UP). COOL WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH LOWS IN THE MIDDLE 40S TO
MIDDLE 50S. HIGHS THURSDAY IN THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S. LOWS
THURSDAY NIGHT IN THE MIDDLE 50S TO LOWER 60S.

FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT...EXTENDED MODELS ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD
AGREEMENT THAT A SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL DROP DOWN FROM CANADA INTO
THE GREAT LAKES REGION. THE TIMING OF THIS FEATURE IS NOT THAT GREAT
WITH SOME MODELS BRINGING IN ACTIVITY AS EARLY AS FRIDAY AFTERNOON
AND SOME MODELS HANGING ONTO ACTIVITY INTO SUNDAY. HAVE TAKEN A
MIDDLE OF THE ROAD APPROACH HERE WITH MOST SPOTS SEEING THE CHANCES
FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS BEGINNING FRIDAY NIGHT (LATE FRIDAY
FAR NORTHWEST) AND ENDING ACTIVITY SATURDAY NIGHT. HIGHS FRIDAY IN
THE UPPER 70S TO LOWER 80S. LOWS FRIDAY NIGHT IN THE UPPER 50S TO
MIDDLE 60S AND HIGHS ON SATURDAY IN THE LOWER TO MIDDLE 70S.

SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...INCREASING RIDGING AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT
IS EXPECTED TO LEAD TO PRECIPITATION FREE CONDITIONS ALONG WITH A
SLOW WARMING TREND. HIGHS MODERATING FROM THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 70S
SUNDAY TO THE UPPER 70S AND LOWER 80S TUESDAY. LOWS AT NIGHT IN THE
MIDDLE 50S TO LOWER 60S.

SULLIVAN

.MARINE.../ISSUED AT 321 PM/

...WATERSPOUTS POSSIBLE TONIGHT...

STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION WILL DEVELOP THIS EVENING IN THE WAKE OF
PRIMARY COLD FRONT AND SECONDARY TROUGH SWINGING EWD ACROSS THE
REGION. WITH 850 MB TEMPS DROPPING INTO THE UPPER SINGLE DIGITS
TONIGHT...AND LAKE TEMPS AVERAGING 21-23C...EXCELLENT VERTICAL
MIXING CAN BE EXPECTED OVER THE NEARSHORE WATERS AS 850 MB WINDS OF
20-35 KTS EFFECTIVELY MIX TO THE SURFACE. MARINERS CAN EXPECT SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS ACROSS ALL NEARSHORE WATERS BY LATER THIS
EVENING OR OVERNIGHT. WINDS AND WAVES WILL REMAIN ELEVATED AT LEAST
THROUGH WEDNESDAY.

COLDEST 850 MB TEMPS AND STRONG WINDS ARRIVE LATE TONIGHT...AND
