AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
332 AM EDT FRI OCT 7 2011

.SYNOPSIS.../ISSUED AT 330 AM/

AN EXTENDED STRETCH OF FANTASTIC AUTUMN WEATHER WILL CONTINUE OVER
NORTHERN MICHIGAN...AND MOST OF THE EASTERN UNITED STATES...AS
STRONG HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE NORTHEAST STATES WILL STAY
PUT THROUGH THE WEEKEND. MEANWHILE...DEEP LOW PRESSURE ORGANIZING IN
THE LEE OF THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS WILL RACE TO HUDSON BAY...PASSING
WELL NORTHWEST OF THE GREAT LAKES. ITS ASSOCIATED WEAK COOL
FRONT...WILL SAG INTO NORTHERN MICHIGAN LATE SUNDAY. MOSTLY SUNNY
SKIES...AND MUCH WARMER THAN NORMAL TEMPERATURES...WILL CONTINUE
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

HALBLAUB/LOCKER

&&

.SHORT TERM.../ISSUED AT 330 AM/...TODAY

SEEMS LIKE THIS IS A BROKEN RECORD HERE...BUT ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL
DAY IS IN STORE FOR US. CURRENTLY...STRONG MID/UPPER RIDGING
OVERHEAD WITH SFC HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE NE CONUS. THE AIR MASS
REMAINS DRY OVERALL...ALTHOUGH A LIGHT SOUTHERLY FLOW HAS BROUGHT
IN SOME HIGHER SFC TDS. THE CLEAR SKIES AND COOLING HAS LED TO
AREAS OF FOG...ESPECIALLY IN EASTERN UPPER...AND FOCUSED IN THE ST
MARYS RIVER SYSTEM. TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN ABLE TO COOL OFF INTO
THE UPPER 30S/LOWER 40S IN THE LOWEST LYING COMMUNITIES...WITH
SOME LOWER HALF OF THE 50S IN MANY COASTAL COMMUNITIES. MOST TOWNS
RESIDED IN THE 40S.

THROUGH THE DAY...HEIGHTS ALOFT ACTUALLY RISE AS THE MID/UPPER
RIDGING IS FIRMLY ESTABLISHED OVER THE EASTERN HALF OF THE
COUNTRY. H8 TEMPS AT 16C WILL BRING MORE UPPER 70S TO LOWER HALF
OF THE 80S THIS AFTERNOON. WE STILL HAVE STEEP H7-H5 LAPSE RATES
AND WE ARE WITHIN A CORRIDOR OF HIGHER LEVEL MOISTURE. WOULD NOT
BE SURPRISED TO SEE SOME HIGH LEVEL AC POP OFF...BUT ALL IN
ALL...A RATHER SUNNY DAY AGAIN. THE PRESSURE GRADIENT DOES TIGHTEN
UP AS UPSTREAM PACIFIC COLD FRONT TRIES TO WORK ITS WAY INTO THE
FAR WESTERN GREAT LAKES. THIS WILL KICK THE SOUTHERLY WINDS UP A
NOTCH...WITH SOME GUSTINESS TO 20 MPH IN BY AFTERNOON. FIRE DANGER
BECOMES SLIGHTLY MORE ELEVATED TODAY...ALTHOUGH THE WINDS AND
HUMIDITIES WILL NOT REACH CRITICAL THRESHOLDS.

SMD

&&

.LONG TERM.../ISSUED AT 330 AM/...TONIGHT AND BEYOND

TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY...RIDGING HOLDS FIRM OVER THE EASTERN PART
OF THE COUNTRY...WHILE THE MOISTURE-STARVED PACIFIC FRONT CANNOT
BUST THROUGH THE RIDGING AND HOLDS UP JUST TO OUR NW. THUS...IT
NEVER QUITE MAKES IT HERE...UNLESS MAYBE SNEAKING INTO CHIP/MACK
COUNTIES OVER THE WEEKEND. RAINFALL WILL BE NON EXISTENT WITH THIS
FEATURE...BUT THERE COULD BE SOME CLOUDINESS WORKING IN OVER THE
NW HALF OF THE CWA...MAINLY IN EASTERN UPPER. THE ONLY
RECOGNIZABLE WEATHER CHANGE WILL BE THE INTRODUCTION OF EVEN
GUSTIER SOUTHERLY WINDS...WHICH MAY START AS EARLY AS TONIGHT ON
THE HIGHEST AND MOST EXPOSED LOCALES. THE BETTER WINDS WILL
DEVELOP SATURDAY WITH MIXING OF THE BL UP THROUGH ROUGHLY 900MB.
THIS WILL TAP 30KT WINDS AND BRING DOWN GUSTS TO 35 MPH NW TO 25
OR SO NEARER THE SAGINAW BAY. TEMPERATURES BOTH DAYS WILL BE WELL
ABOVE NORMAL...WITH UPPER 70S/OW 80S SATURDAY. CORE OF WARMEST AIR
SHIFTS EAST...BUT WE WILL STILL BE WELL INTO THE 70S. THE GUSTY
WINDS...WARM TEMPERATURES WILL RESULT IN THE GREATEST OF FIRE
DANGER SATURDAY AND WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT THIS IN THE
HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK. WINDS APPEAR TO DIE OFF SUNDAY...BUT AM
DEFINITELY NOT RULING OUT ELEVATED FIRE DANGER FOR AT LEAST NE
LOWER WHERE THE GRADIENT IS STILL TIGHT ENOUGH TO WARRANT SOME
GUSTY AFTERNOON WINDS.

MONDAY ONWARD...PACIFIC FRONTAL ZONE SORT OF LIFTS BACK NORTH BY
MONDAY'S HEIGHTS ALOFT REBOUND...AND SFC HIGH PRESSURE REGAINS
CONTROL RIGHT OVERHEAD. THIS WILL BRING THE WINDS BACK TO
RELATIVELY LIGHT FOR THE START OF THE NEXT WORK WEEK. AM EXPECTING
NOTHING MORE THAN GORGEOUS WEATHER TO CONTINUE WITH MOST AREAS IN
THE 70S STILL. THE WEATHER PATTERN WILL START TO BREAKDOWN AND
CHANGE THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE WORK WEEK. TROUGHING FROM THE
ROCKIES SLOWLY WORKS ITS WAY INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION BY FRIDAY
WITH INCREASING CHANCES FOR SEEING SOME LIGHTER RAINS DEVELOP
MAINLY IN THE THURSDAY-FRIDAY TIMEFRAME. EARLIER SUGGESTIONS OF
TROPICAL MOISTURE FROM THE GULF GETTING INTO THE MIX...SEEMS
RATHER UNLIKELY NOW...AS THIS WORKS UP THE ATLANTIC COAST.
TEMPERATURES WILL GRADUALLY DECLINE BY LATE IN THE WORK
WEEK...WHEN HIGHS ON FRIDAY LOOK TO BE IN THE 50S.

SMD

&&

.MARINE.../ISSUED AT 330 AM/

HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN IN CONTROL OF THE WEATHER OVER THE NEXT
SEVERAL DAYS RESULTING IN PLENTY OF SUN AND WARM TEMPERATURES.
HOWEVER...BOATING CONDITIONS EXPECTED TO GET A BIT ROUGHER BY
LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND THROUGH AT LEAST SATURDAY NIGHT. GUSTY
WINDS AND CHOPPY WAVES ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP DUE TO A TIGHTENING
PRESSURE GRADIENT...ON BACK SIDE OF HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE MID
ATLANTIC. THIS HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD BACK OVERHEAD SUNDAY AND
MONDAY ALLOWING FOR MUCH EASIER BOATING WEATHER.

SMD

&&

.AVIATION.../ISSUED AT 1125 PM/...VALID FOR 06Z TAFS

HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN OVER THE REGION THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD.
WILL CONTINUE TO SEE PERIODIC DIPS IN VISIBILITY AS SOME MAINLY
LIGHT FOG DRIFTS THROUGH THE TAF SITES...THOUGH COULD SEE A BRIEF
PERIOD OR TWO BELOW 1/2SM FOR A TIME BEFORE SUNRISE...MAINLY FOR
PLN/APN. OTHERWISE...LOOK FOR JUST SOME INCREASE IN HIGH CLOUDS
THROUGH THE DAY...WITH WINDS TURNING JUST A BIT GUSTY FROM THE
SOUTH INTO THE AFTERNOON...THOUGH WITH MAX GUSTS GENERALLY 16
KNOTS OR LESS.

LAWRENCE

&&

.APX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
MI...NONE.
