AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DETROIT/PONTIAC MI
431 PM EDT MON MAY 23 2011

.SHORT TERM...LATE AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT

DESPITE MOST AREAS EXPERIENCING THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON...
CONVECTION HAS STRUGGLED TO INTENSIFY IN FRONT OF AN ADVANCING UPPER
LEVEL LOW. AN INCREASED CLOUD FIELD AND EARLIER ROUND OF
THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOPED AROUND NOON REDUCED THE AVAILABLE
WINDOW FOR DESTABILIZATION. WE DID SEE A LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS
DEVELOP ALONG A VORT LOBE WHICH HAS ALREADY MOVED THROUGH THE
NORTHERN CWA...BUT ONLY ABLE TO PRODUCE WIND GUSTS TO 40 MPH IN SOME
LOCATIONS. THE TRAILING END OF THIS FEATURE IN COMBINATION WITH AN
APPROACHING MID-LEVEL WIND MAX(60 KNOTS AT 700MB) HAS CONTRIBUTED TO
HEALTHIER CONVECTION ACROSS EXTREME SOUTHERN LOWER
MICHIGAN...GENERALLY SOUTH OF M-59. THE 18Z DTX SOUNDING DISPLAYED
SOME OF THESE LIMITATIONS WITH ML CAPE OF ONLY AROUND 600 J/KG AT
18Z WHILE THE AIRMASS IN THE SOUTHERN COUNTIES HAS POKED INTO THE
1000-1500 J/KG RANGE. CONVECTION HAS NOW FILLED IN ACROSS NORTHERN
INDIANA AND THIS ACTIVITY MAY CONTINUE TO CLIP THE SOUTHEASTERN
PORTION OF OUR CWA BEFORE THE UPPER LEVEL WAVE PUSHES FAR ENOUGH
EAST TO SHUNT THIS ACTIVITY INTO OHIO/CANADA. NORTHERN PORTIONS OF
THE WATCH WILL BE CANCELLED SHORTLY WITH LOCATIONS FROM M-59
SOUTH(INCLUDING ST CLAIR COUNTY) WILL REMAIN IN THE WATCH FOR A
FEW MORE HOURS. WE HAVE HAD REPORTS OF LIMBS DOWN WITH ONE OF THE
HEALTHIER STORMS IN WAYNE COUNTY SUPPORTING THE CONTINUED SEVERE THREAT.

LATER TONIGHT...ONLY A BRIEF WINDOW FOR A FEW LIGHT
SHOWERS/SPRINKLES WILL LINGER INTO THIS EVENING AS THE HEALTHIER CU
FIELD OVER NORTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN APPROACHES THE SAGINAW VALLEY.
CHANCES OF SHOWERS WILL WANE AS WE LOSE DIURNAL HEATING WITH DRY
CONDITIONS EXPECTED FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT AS THE COLD FRONT
PUSHES SOUTH.

&&

.LONG TERM...TUESDAY THROUGH NEXT MONDAY

SOUTHWARD MOVING COLD FRONT WILL SETTLE NEAR THE MICHIGAN/OHIO
BORDER EARLY TOMORROW...WHILE HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE NORTHERN
GREAT LAKES. THIS WILL BRING COOLER NORTHERLY FLOW TO THE
REGION...WITH LOW CHANCES FOR SHOWER REMAINING CLOSER TO THE FRONT
FROM DETROIT SOUTHWARD. THE FRONT LOOKS TO BE DRIVEN EVEN FURTHER
SOUTH INTO THE OHIO VALLEY TUESDAY NIGHT AS UPPER LEVEL ENERGY
PUSHES DOWN INTO THE LONGWAVE TROUGH OVER EASTERN CANADA AND AS THE
AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO SINK THROUGH THE NORTHERN GREAT
LAKES. THIS SHOULD PROVIDE DRY WEATHER AS WELL AS SOME CLEARING
OVERNIGHT.

CANADIAN UPPER TROUGH WILL REMAIN OVER EASTERN CANADA ON
WEDNESDAY/WEDNESDAY NIGHT WHILE THE UPPER LOW NOW OVER CALIFORNIA
LIFTS INTO THE CENTRAL PLAINS. THE APPROACH OF THE UPPER/SURFACE
AREAS OF LOW PRESSURE SHOULD ALLOW THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY OVER THE
OHIO VALLEY TO BEGIN LIFTING BACK NORTHWARD AS A WARM FRONT.
NORTHWARD PROGRESS OF THIS FRONT WILL HOWEVER BE LIMITED BY THE
STRONG DOME OF SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE AND NORTHEASTERLY FLOW HOLDING
OVER THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES. GFS/NAM/EURO ALL BRING THE FRONT UP
INTO SOUTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN BY WEDNESDAY EVENING...THEN STALL IT
OVERHEAD THROUGH THURSDAY WHILE THE SURFACE LOW TRACKS TO OUR SOUTH.
WET PATTERN LOOKS TO BECOME REESTABLISHED DURING THIS TIMEFRAME AS
WAVES RIDE THE FRONT ACROSS NORTHERN IN/OH AND SOUTHERN
MICHIGAN...AND AS THE REGION RESIDES WITHIN RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION
FORCING. FGEN ALSO LOOKS TO INCREASE WITHIN THE AREA OF DEFORMATION
ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE SYSTEM...WITH BETTER WIND/THERMAL
CONVERGENCE BETWEEN THE SURFACE LOW TRACKING TO OUR SOUTH AND
STRENGTHENING SURFACE HIGH OVER THE NORTHERN GREAT LAKES. WITH GOOD
MODEL AGREEMENT TODAY WITH HOW FAR NORTH THE FRONT LIFTS...HAVE
BUMPED POPS UP TO HIGH LIKELY WEDNESDAY EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY.
MAX TEMPERATURES WILL BE TRICKY WED/THUR WITH A TIGHT THERMAL
GRADIENT.. MAXES SHOULD RUN CLOSE TO 70 NEAR THE OHIO BORDER...WITH
MUCH COOLER READINGS IN THE MID 50S/LOW 60S ACROSS THE SAGINAW
VALLEY AND THUMB.

SOUTHERN WAVE OVER THE OHIO VALLEY SHOULD GET KICKED EAST THURSDAY
NIGHT AND FRIDAY AS ADDITIONAL UPPER ENERGY CROSSES THE CENTRAL
ROCKIES AND AS THE UPPER TROUGH OVER EASTERN CANADA LIFTS NORTHEAST.
THIS SHOULD ALLOW THE AREA OF DEFORMATION TO EXIT THE AREA THURSDAY
NIGHT AND EARLY FRIDAY. COOL CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE ON FRIDAY
BEHIND THE SYSTEM...WITH HIGHS ONLY IN THE UPPER 50S TO MID 60S.

THE ENERGY PUSHING INTO THE CENTRAL ROCKIES LOOKS TO LIFT UP ACROSS
THE GREAT LAKES LATE FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY. THIS SHOULD PROVIDE
ANOTHER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AS WE HEAD INTO THE HOLIDAY
WEEKEND...WITH A CONTINUATION OF BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES. 00Z
UKMET/GEM AND 12Z EURO KEPT A MORE ACTIVE PATTERN OVER MICHIGAN FOR
SUNDAY AND MONDAY...WITH FLATTER FLOW OVER THE CONUS ALLOWING A
SERIES OF WAVES TO RIDE THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES. 18Z/00Z GFS AND 00Z
EURO ARE KEYING IN ON A MORE AMPLIFIED PATTERN HOWEVER...AND BUILD A
RIDGE INTO THE CENTRAL OR WESTERN GREAT LAKES BY THE BEGINNING OF
NEXT WEEK. WILL MENTION JUST SLIGHT CHANCE POPS SUN/MON AS RIDGE
AXIS TO OUR WEST (00Z EURO) COULD ALSO POSE A THREAT FOR CONVECTION.

&&

.MARINE...

LOW PRESSURE OVER EASTERN LAKE SUPERIOR HAS CAUSED BREEZY
SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS OVER THE LAND WHERE MIXING HEIGHTS ARE HIGHER.
BREEZY WINDS OF 15 TO 20 KNOTS HAVE EXTENDED OUT OVER THE NEARSHORE
WATERS WITH MORE STABLE CONDITIONS KEEPING WINDS A LITTLE LOWER OVER
THE OPEN WATERS. THUNDERSTORMS WILL MOVE OUT OF THE AREA BY 6 PM
WITH THE ONLY EXCEPTION BEING TOWARDS LAKE ERIE WHERE A CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO THE EVENING. WINDS WILL VEER AROUND
TO THE NORTHWEST BEHIND A COLD FRONT OVERNIGHT AS THE LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM TRACKS NORTHEAST INTO ONTARIO. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD SOUTH
INTO THE AREA ON TUESDAY BRINGING LIGHTER WINDS...FOLLOWED BY
ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM TRACKING EAST THROUGH THE OHIO VALLY
FROM LATE WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...ISSUED 200 PM EDT MON MAY 23 2011

AN UPPER LEVEL LOW ADVANCING EASTWARD INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION IS
CAUSING THUNDERSTORMS TO DEVELOP ACROSS LOWER MICHIGAN. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS HAVE FILLED IN ALONG A LINE EXTENDING FROM THE SAGINAW
BAY TO NORTHEAST INDIANA AND WILL MOVE NORTHEAST THROUGH THE AREA
DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS. THIS LINE HAS ALREADY CLEARED MBS AND IS
EXPECTED TO CLEAR THE DETROIT TERMINALS BY AROUND 21Z. WE HAVE BEEN
KEEPING AN EYE ON INSTABILITY IN ADVANCE OF THIS LINE WITH A CHANCE FOR
SOME STORMS TO BE SEVERE DUE TO THE STRONG WINDS ALOFT. IF ANY
STRONGER STORMS DEVELOP UPSTREAM FROM THE TERMINALS THEN TAFS WILL
BE UPDATED TO INCREASE WESTERLY WIND GUSTS...POSSIBLY IN EXCESS OF
40 KNOTS. THERE IS A SMALL CHANCE THAT THE SOUTHERN EXTENSION OF THE
LINE WILL STALL OUT IN THE VICINITY OF THE I-94 CORRIDOR AND
PROLONG THUNDERSTORM CHANCES AT DTW/DET. SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS WILL
BE BREEZY OUTSIDE OF THUNDERSTORMS WITH FREQUENT GUSTS OF 25-30
KNOTS. WINDS GUSTS WILL DIE OFF AS WE LOSE DIURNAL MIXING AROUND
00Z.

THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL PUSH SOUTH THROUGH THE AREA BETWEEN
5-10Z TONIGHT WITH WINDS VEERING TO THE NORTHWEST. THIS WILL BRING
AN INCREASE IN LOW CLOUDS WITH CEILINGS DROPPING TO AROUND 1500-2000
FEET.
