AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
445 AM EST MON JAN 17 2011

.SYNOPSIS.../ISSUED AT 445 AM/

ANOTHER WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE MOVING OUT OF THE NORTHERN
PLAINS...WILL BRING SOME ACCUMULATING SNOW TO NORTHERN MICHIGAN THIS
AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT...BEFORE DIMINISHING ON TUESDAY. THERE WILL
BE MORE CHANCES OF SNOW THURSDAY AND SATURDAY...WITH LAKE EFFECT
POSSIBLE IN BETWEEN AS THE PATTERN REMAINS ACTIVE. TEMPERATURES OVER
THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS WILL GENERALLY BE BELOW CLIMOLOGICAL NORMALS
FOR MID TO LATE JANUARY.

&&

.SHORT TERM.../ISSUED AT 445 AM/...TODAY AND TONIGHT

EASTERN PACIFIC RIDGING AND DOWNSTREAM LONG WAVE TROUGHING REMAINS
THE DOMINANT PATTERN AND WILL MAINTAIN BLO NORMAL TEMPS AND A COUPLE
OPPORTUNTIES FOR ACCUMULATING SNOWFALL THIS WEEK AS A NUMBER OF
WAVES TRAVERSE THE REGION.

TODAY AND TONIGHT...THIS MORNING...WARM ADVECTION WING OF LIGHT
SNOWS HAS ALREADY BEEN EXPANDING ACROSS NRN LOWER MICHIGAN DURING
THE OVERNIGHT HOURS WELL IN ADVANCE OF THE MAIN SYSTEM. SO...WILL
START THE FORECAST WITH SOME LIGHT SNOW FOR THE MORNING. THEN...
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY REVEALING FIRST IN THE SERIES OF SHORT WAVES
MOVING SE THROUGH MINNESOTA THIS MORNING WITH SOME SEMBLANCE OF A
SFC WAVE/TIGHTENING P-GRADIENT AHEAD OF THE WAY. MODEL FORECASTS
SWING THIS WAVE BACK EAST AND ULTIMATELY NE THROUGH NRN LOWER
MICHIGAN LATER THIS AFTERNOON/EVENING. BUT MORE IMPRESSIVE THAN THE
WAVE ITSELF ARE A COUPLE OF NICE PULSES OF ISENTROPIC ASCENT SLATED
TO MOVE THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA ROUGHLY BETWEEN 18Z AND 06Z. A
MORE OR LESS 12 HR PERIOD OF GOOD ASCENT WITH I290K MIXING RATIOS
RUNNING BETWEEN 2 G/KG (NORTH) TO 3 G/KG (SOUTH) SUGGESTING THE
POTENTIAL FOR UP TO 6 INCHES OF ACCUMULATION.

HOWEVER...FORECAST PROFILES ARE NOT SO IMPRESSIVE WITH MUCH OF THE
FORECAST SOUNDINGS ACROSS THE WARMER THAN -10C BLO 700 MB. THIS
SUGGESTS REDUCED SNOW-WATER RATIOS/SMALL FLAKES. AND WITHOUT ANY
ENHANCEMENT FACTORS (SUCH AS POTENTIAL FOR SLANTWISE CONVECTION)
PLAN ON LIMITING ACCUMULATIONS TO 4 INCHES OR LESS FOR A 12 HR
AFTERNOON/EVENING TOTALS. EVEN LAKE ENHACEMENT POSSIBILITES LOOK
SLENDER AS H8 TEMPS WARM QUICKLY FOR A TIME THIS AFTERNOON TO
-6C/-8C. ALTHOUGH THERE WILL BE A PERIOD OF MODERATE SNOWS AT TIMES
ALONG WITH GUSTY WINDS LATER THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH THIS EVENING...
WILL HOLD OFF ON ANY WINTER WX HEADLINES FOR NOW...ESPECIALLY SINCE
THIS WILL BE A LATE FIRST PERIOD/MAINLY SECOND PERIOD EVENT. DAY
CREW MAY ULTIMATELY DECIDE IN FAVOR OF SOME ADVISORIES FOR THIS
EVENING DEPENDING ON HOW THINGS DEVELOP UPSTREAM.

&&

.LONG TERM.../ISSUED AT 445 AM/...TUESDAY AND BEYOND

TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT...SECONDARY MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE EXPECTED TO
SWING ACROSS THE LOWER LAKES LATE OVERNIGHT/EARLY TUESDAY WITH THE
ATTENDING SFC LOW/COLD FRONT CROSSING THE REGION DURING THE MORNING.
SYNOPTIC SNOWFALL MAY LINGER OVER THE SE COUNTIES DURING THE
