AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
707 PM EDT SAT OCT 15 2011

.SYNOPSIS.../ISSUED AT 355 PM/

DEEP LOW PRESSURE HAS BECOME STATIONARY OVER JAMES BAY...AND WILL
REMAIN IN PLACE THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT. THIS WILL MAINTAIN THE FLOW OF
COOLER AIR INTO THE REGION...ON GUSTY NORTHWEST WINDS. OCCASIONAL
SHOWERS WILL PERSIST INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK...MAINLY OVER LAKE
EFFECT PRONE AREAS.

HALBLAUB

&&

.SHORT TERM.../ISSUED AT 355 PM/...TONIGHT

DEEP LAYER CYCLONIC FLOW CONTINUES TO GRIP THE UPPER GREAT LAKES AT
MID AFTERNOON.  971MB SURFACE LOW ALONG THE SOUTHEAST SHORE OF JAMES
BAY BRINGING BRISK WEST-NORTHWEST WINDS TO NORTHERN MICHIGAN.
STRONG WIND GUSTS CONTINUE ACROSS EASTERN UPPER MICHIGAN AND
ADJACENT AREAS WITH 40-50+MPH GUSTS.  RECENT GUST TO 57MPH AT SOO
ONTARIO...AND 61MPH FARTHER WEST AT GRAND MARAIS AROUND MIDDAY.  ON
THE PLUS SIDE...CLOUDS HAVE THINNED OUT WEST OF A FKS-CAD LINE
ALLOWING THE SUN TO BREAK OUT.  BUT CLOUDS REMAIN ACROSS THE REST OF
NORTHERN MICHIGAN...WITH NUMEROUS (LAKE EFFECT) RAIN SHOWERS
CONCENTRATED OVER NORTH CENTRAL LOWER MICHIGAN.

FIRST ISSUE FOR TONIGHT DEALS WITH THE WINDS...WHICH SHOULD LIGHTEN
UP A BIT AS PRESSURE GRADIENT RELAXES.  PLAN TO EXTEND THE WIND
ADVISORY ACROSS CHIPPEWA COUNTY THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS GIVEN
RECENT WIND GUST TRENDS.  LARGE SCALE DRYING MOVING INTO THE UPPER
GREAT LAKES TONIGHT...AS EVIDENCED BY THINNING CLOUD COVER ACROSS
LAKE MICHIGAN.  MAIN ISSUE TONIGHT WILL DEAL WITH LINGERING LAKE
EFFECT CLOUDS/SHOWERS.  OFF LAKE SUPERIOR...CLOUDS AND THE THREAT
FOR SHOWERS WILL PROBABLY LINGER ACROSS CHIPPEWA COUNTY THROUGH THE
NIGHT. SATELLITE IMAGERY SHOWS PLENTY OF MOISTURE STILL UPSTREAM...
AND LOW LEVEL TEMPERATURES WILL BE COLDEST (850MB TEMPERATURES -2 TO
-3C)...INVERSION HEIGHTS UP AROUND 800MB.  OFF LAKE MICHIGAN...LOW
LEVEL FLOW BACKING MORE WESTERLY OVERNIGHT WILL TAP INTO SOME OF THE
DRIER AIR UPSTREAM ACROSS WISCONSIN...ALONG WITH WEAK WARM
ADVECTION.  THIS IS EXPECTED TO ALLOW LAKE INDUCED CLOUDS AND
SHOWERS TO THIN OUT WITH TIME FROM SOUTH TO NORTH AS THE NIGHT WEARS
ON.  MEANWHILE...FARTHER UPSTREAM BAND OF WARM ADVECTION/
FRONTOGENESIS CLOUDS/LIGHT RAIN COMING ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS.
THIS IS EXPECTED TO DIVE SOUTHEAST AND MOSTLY MISS THE FORECAST
AREA...WITH SOME MID/HIGH CLOUDS IMPACTING AREAS SOUTH OF M-32 AFTER
MIDNIGHT.

JPB

&&

.LONG TERM.../ISSUED AT 355 PM/...SUNDAY AND BEYOND

SHORT RANGE (SUNDAY)...WATCHING ANOTHER QUICK MOVING SHORT WAVE
TROUGH ZIPPING INTO THE UPPER GREAT LAKES REGION FOR SUNDAY.  MAY
STILL SEE SOME WESTERLY FLOW CLOUD/SHOWERS ACROSS FAR NORTHERN
CHIPPEWA COUNTY AT THE OUTSET SUNDAY MORNING...BUT MAIN ISSUES WILL
BE INCREASING MID LEVEL MOISTURE/STEEPENING LAPSE RATES SPREADING
ACROSS AT LEAST THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA DURING THE
AFTERNOON.  SO AN INCREASE IN CLOUDS AND PERHAPS A FEW HIGH BASED
SHOWERS IN THE OFFING FOR SUNDAY AFTERNOON.  WILL STILL BE A BRISK
DAY WITH GUSTY WESTERLY WINDS THOUGH NOTHING TO THE EXTENT OF
TODAY.  AFTERNOON HIGHS SUNDAY MAINLY IN THE 50S.

JPB

SUN NIGHT THROUGH TUE...FITTING RIGHT IN WITH THE SEASON...THE
PRIMARY FORECAST CONCERN REMAINS LAKE EFFECT PRECIP THROUGH THE
EARLY WORK WEEK. BROAD AND DEEP LAYER LOW/MID LEVEL CYCLONIC FLOW
REGIME WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE PERIOD...AS STRONG CLOSED UPPER LOW
MEANDERS NEAR JAMES BAY. SETUP FOR ANY SIGNIFICANT LAKE EFFECT
PRECIP APPEARS TO WANE WITH TIME INTO SUN NIGHT AS DEPARTURE OF SUN
AFTERNOON SHORTWAVE (SEE ABOVE FOR MORE) STRIPS OUT DEEPER
MOISTURE...WITH INVERSION HEIGHTS FALLING BACK DOWN TOWARD A MEAGER
4KFT. STILL...SIMPLE INERTIA WITH LINGERING STRONGER FLOW ALOFT AND
MORE THAN SUFFICIENT DELTA T'S AVERAGING 15C SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO
KEEP SOME LAKE SHOWERS GOING IN WESTERLY FLOW LOCATIONS OF NORTHWEST
LOWER AND ACROSS FAR NORTHERN CHIPPEWA COUNTY THROUGH AT LEAST A
GOOD CHUNK OF THE NIGHT.

BETTER CHANCE LOOKS TO RE-EMERGE ON MON WITH APPROACH OF NEXT
SHORTWAVE AND SUBSEQUENT UPTICK IN DEEP MOISTURE FROM NORTH TO SOUTH
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. PER PERSISTENT GUIDANCE TRENDS AND PATTERN
RECOGNITION...CONFIDENCE IS SUFFICIENTLY HIGH TO BUMP POPS TO LIKELY
ACROSS NORTHERN CHIPPEWA COUNTY WHERE MEAN WESTERLY FLOW MAY ALLOW
LOCALIZED CONVERGENCE AXIS TO DEVELOP NEAR THE LAKE SUPERIOR
SHORELINE. HAVE ALSO TRENDED THE FORECAST MUCH MORE CLOUDY AREAWIDE
INTO THE AFTERNOON AS SPOKE OF DEEPER MOISTURE WRAPS BACK SOUTH
AROUND JAMES BAY CIRCULATION...WITH LIKELY SOME DIURNAL COMPONENT
(STRATOCU) ACROSS THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES BENEATH LOW LEVEL COLD POOL.
AS SUCH...WILL KNOCK A FEW MORE DEGREES OFF HIGHS THAT DAY.

THEREAFTER...YET ANOTHER STRONGER WAVE PROGGED TO DROP TOWARD THE
AREA LATER MON NIGHT INTO TUE...AS ANOTHER WAVE OF PACIFIC ORIGIN
SLIDES THROUGH THE SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES. COMBINATION OF WEAK UPPER
SUPPORT AND DEEP MOISTURE AS WELL AS PLENTY OF LAKE INSTABILITY
SHOULD BRING A BETTER CHANCE FOR SOME SHOWERS TO MUCH OF THE CWA
THROUGH THE DAY...WITH BEST CHANCE ACROSS NORTHWEST LOWER AS LOW
LEVEL FLOW BACKS NORTHWESTERLY INTO THE AFTERNOON. HIGHS STILL QUITE
CHILLY...MAINLY IN THE 40S TO PERHAPS LOWER 50S SOUTHEAST COUNTIES
ON DOWNSLOPE FLOW.

LATER PERIODS (TUE NIGHT THROUGH SAT)...PRIMARY CONCERN THROUGH THE
EXTENDED PORTION OF THE FORECAST REMAINS PRECIP CHANCES INTO
MIDWEEK. OVERALL PATTERN CONTINUES TO APPEAR DOMINATED BY NEGATIVE
NAO-TYPE PATTERN ACROSS THE ATLANTIC...FEATURING BUILDING MERIDIONAL
RIDGE OVER THE CENTRAL/WESTERN ATLANTIC WATERS...HELPING SANDWICH
PERSISTENT UPPER TROUGHING OVER MUCH OF THE EASTERN HALF OF THE
CONUS. SAID TROUGHING (ACTUALLY ALREADY IN PLACE WITH CURRENT
PATTERN) WILL BECOMING INCREASINGLY REINFORCED/AMPLIFIED INTO
MIDWEEK AS A RATHER HEALTHY PIECE OF ENERGY FROM THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST DIVES THROUGH THE TENNESSEE VALLEY ON WEDNESDAY...AIDING
IN SURFACE CYCLOGENESIS SOMEWHERE OVER THE MID ATLANTIC STATES.
LATEST GUIDANCE CONTINUES TO TREND EASTWARD WITH TRACK OF THIS
CYCLONE...FURTHER REMOVING SYNOPTIC PRECIP THREAT FROM THE
CWA...WITH OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF GFS ENSEMBLE MEMBERS WELL OFF
THE VIRGINIA COAST WITH THE SURFACE LOW TRACK. THAT BEING SAID...00Z
ECMWF CONTINUES EARLIER TRENDS OF WRAPPING DEEPER MOISTURE BACK INTO
THE AREA ON WED AS UPPER HEIGHTS AGAIN CLOSE OFF OVER THE EASTERN
GREAT LAKES...WHICH DOES ACTUALLY HAVE SOME MERIT GIVEN
AFOREMENTIONED VERY BLOCKY DOWNSTREAM PATTERN.

EVENTUAL EVOLUTION WILL CERTAINLY PLAY HEAVILY INTO PRECIP FORECAST
THROUGH THE TUE/WED TIMEFRAME...THOUGH STILL DOES APPEAR AT LEAST
LAKE EFFECT PRECIP WILL MAKE AN APPEARANCE DURING THIS TIME AS SHARP
THERMAL TROUGH AXIS DROPS INTO THE REGION (H85 TEMPS TAKING A DIP
TOWARD -5C BY EARLY WED). GIVEN SHARPLY AMPLIFIED FLOW PATTERN...A
NORTHERLY FLOW REGIME APPEARS IN THE WORKS DURING MUCH OF THE
MIDWEEK PERIOD...OBVIOUSLY FAVORING COASTAL LOCALES OF LAKES
MICHIGAN AND HURON (AND PERHAPS FAR WESTERN CHIPPEWA COUNTY). THAT
SAID...WILL PROBABLY SEE SOME INLAND EXPANSION INTO WEDNESDAY WITH
DIURNAL INSTABILITY BENEATH COLD POOL ALOFT...AND PER FORECAST
RAOBS...COULD CERTAINLY STILL BE A LITTLE MIX WITH SNOW OVER THE
HIGHER TERRAIN AS SURFACE-BASED MELTING LAYER IS ONLY ABOUT 1KFT
THICK AT BEST (MORE OF A GEE-WHIZ THING THAN ANYTHING ELSE).
OTHERWISE...STILL APPEARS HEIGHTS WILL REBOUND INTO THE LATE
WEEK/EARLY WEEKEND PERIOD AS MID LEVEL RIDGING ARRIVES IN THE WAKE
OF DEPARTING UPPER LOW...THOUGH GUIDANCE MAY BE A TOUCH TOO FAST
WITH THIS. STILL...SHOULD SEE A RETURN TO DRY AND SOMEWHAT WARMER
WEATHER BY FRI/SAT WITH LOW LEVEL RIDGING FULLY IN CONTROL.

LAWRENCE

&&

.MARINE.../ISSUED AT 355 PM/

SHORT RANGE (TONIGHT/SUNDAY)...GALES WILL CONTINUE WITHIN THE
NEARSHORE ZONES INTO THIS EVENING...WITH STRONG CYCLONIC GRADIENT
LOOSENING ITS GRIP WITH TIME.  EXPECT WIND GUSTS TO SETTLE BELOW
GALE FORCE BY SUNDAY MORNING...THOUGH WINDS WILL REMAIN IN THE HIGH
END SMALL CRAFT RANGE THROUGH SUNDAY...AND WATERS WILL REMAIN
CHOPPY.

OUTLOOK (SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)...GUSTY AND CHOPPY CONDITIONS
EXPECTED TO LINGER THROUGHOUT THE NEARSHORE WATERS SUNDAY NIGHT INTO
MUCH OF MONDAY AS A RATHER TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT REMAINS WITH DEEP
LOW PRESSURE SPINNING NEAR JAMES BAY. EXPECT REMAINING GALE FORCE
WIND GUSTS SUNDAY NIGHT INTO EARLY MONDAY WILL DIMINISH TO SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY LEVELS FOR ALL WATERS MONDAY AFTERNOON. WINDS WILL
FURTHER DECREASE INTO MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY AS THE GRADIENT
CONTINUES TO WEAKEN...THOUGH SPEEDS WILL STILL REMAIN 10 TO 20 KNOTS
FOR MOST WATERS...AS THE FLOW SLOWLY VEERS MORE NORTHWESTERLY.
