LAKES. AT THE SFC...A TROUGH/FRONT EXTENDED FROM WRN MN AND WRN IA
INTO ERN KS. THE DEEP SRLY FLOW HAS BROUGHT ABUNDANT MOISTURE TOWARD
THE REGION WITH PWAT VALUES IN THE 1.0 TO 1.2 INCH RANGE FROM ERN IA
THROUGH WI. THE COMBINATION OF WEAK SHORTWAVES AND ISENTROPIC LIFT
AHEAD OF THE FRONT SUPPORTED AREAS OF SHRA/TSRA FROM IA AND SW WI
INTO ERN MN.
&&

.SHORT TERM...TONIGHT AND THURSDAY

MODELS WERE IN REASONABLE AGREEMENT IN BRINGING THE BANDS OF PCPN
GRADUALLY TO THE EAST. SIMILAR TO PREVIOUS RUNS...MADE A SLIGHT
ADJUSTMENT TO SLOW THE PCPN ONSET. CANNOT RULE OUT SOME THUNDER INTO
THE FAR WEST BY LATE THIS EVENING GIVEN UPSTREAM TRENDS AND MUCAPE
VALUES IN THE 200-400 J/KG RANGE. HOWEVER...INSTABILITY IS EXPECTED
TO TAPER OFF AFT 06Z AND FARTHER EAST.  AS THE TROUGH BECOMES MORE
NEGATIVELY TILTED...CONTINUED MOISTURE INFLOW DEEP LAYER QVECTOR
CONV AND THE LIKELIHOOD OF ADDITIONAL WEAK SHORTWAVES INT SRLY FLOW
SUPPORTS CONTINUED CATEGORICAL POPS OVER THE WEST HALF WITH MODERATE
TO HEAVY PCPN AT TIMES. ONLY ISOLD LIGHTER SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED OVER
THE EAST BY THU AFTERNOON.

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH NEXT WEDNESDAY/...

THURSDAY NIGHT/FRIDAY/FRIDAY NIGHT...LONGWAVE TROUGH FM CNTRL CANADA
INTO THE EASTERN CONUS FCST TO SLOWLY SLIDE ACROSS GREAT LAKES. TWO
PRIMARY PERIODS OF PCPN EXPECTED. LEADING ONE THURSDAY EVENING AS
SWATH OF PWAT UP TO 200 PCT OF NORMAL SURGES ACROSS UPR MI ON
SOUTHERLY WINDS AHEAD OF SFC-H85 TROUGHS. THETA-E AVECTION/ISENTROPIC
ASCENT FAVORS EAST HALF OF UPR MI TO SEE MAJORITY OF RAIN LATER
THURSDAY EVENING INTO THURSDAY NIGHT...WHILE BRIEF DRYING OR AT LEAST
A DIMINISHING TREND TO PCPN MAY DEVELOP OVR THE WEST. ALL THE
WHILE...TROUGH ALOFT WILL BEGIN TO DEEPEN AS RIBBON OF SHORTWAVE
ENERGY AND STRONG 250MB JET STREAK DIG INTO BASE OF THE TROUGH.
OVERALL...WHOLE TROUGH WILL BEGIN TO CLOSE OFF INTO FRIDAY WHICH
ALLOWS SFC LOW TO DEEPEN TO AROUND 985MB BY 00Z SATURDAY JUST EAST
OF LK SUPERIOR. EXPECT MAJORITY OF RAIN ON FRIDAY TO BE ORIENTED
ALONG AND NORTH OF H5 TROUGH AXIS. SHARP H85-H5 FGEN IS FCST OVR FAR
NORTHERN CWA AND LK SUPERIOR. INCREASED POPS OVR KEWEENAW AS THAT
AREA WOULD BE IN THE BETTER FGEN FORCING AND ASSOCIATED INCREASING
LIFT IN THE H9-H8 LAYER PER SOUNDINGS. ELSEWHERE...NON- DIURNAL TEMP
TREND WAS UTILIZED AS COOLER AIR BEGINS TO WRAP INTO UPR LAKES AS SFC
LOW DEEPENS. TEMPS ON FRIDAY OVR WEST INTERIOR MAY STRUGGLE TO REACH
ABOVE 50F BEFORE THE COOLER AIR MOVES IN. WILL BE A FAR CRY FM TEMPS
WE HAVE SEEN RECENTLY...BUT NOT REALLY THAT FAR BLO NORMAL FOR MID
OCTOBER.

WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN STORY ON FRIDAY NIGHT...MAINLY CLOSER TO LK
SUPERIOR AND IN THE EAST. GIVEN THE STRONG/CLOSING OFF UPR TROUGH
STRONGER GFS/ECMWF/UKMET IDEA WAS PREFERRED OVR THE WEAKER NAM SOLN
WITH SFC LOW DEPICTION FOR FRIDAY NIGHT. FCST SOUNDINGS FM GFS
INDICATE BUILDING BLYR WITH WINDS 40-45 MPH IN THE MIXED LAYER
CLOSER TO LK SUPERIOR AND OVR NE CWA AS WELL. WIND ADVY HEADLINES
COULD BE NEEDED. NO REAL HELP FM ANY PRESSURE RISE BUT STRENGTH OF
PRESSURE GRADIENT ALONE WILL RESULT IN WINDY CONDITIONS FRIDAY
NIGHT. COOLER/MOIST AIR 925-850MB LEADS TO POTENTIAL FOR MARGINAL LK
EFFECT SHRA AS WELL. SOUNDINGS DO NOT SHOW MUCH IN WAY OF
DEEPER/SYNOPICALLY FORCED MOISTURE AND GIVEN H85 TEMPS DOWN TO -2C
OR -3C AND LK SFC TEMPS 10-13C...RESULTING OVER WATER INSTABILITY
DOES NOT LOOK TOO OUTSTANDING. THE MARGINAL INSTABILITY AND CYCLONIC
LOW-LEVEL FLOW WITH SFC LOW NEARBY DOES SUPPORT SOME MENTION OF LK
EFFECT PCPN THOUGH. WBZERO HEIGHTS MORE TOWARD 2KFT AGL SHOULD KEEP
PCPN ALL LIQUID OVR CWA.

IN THE EXTENDED...TROUGH IS FCST TO SLOWLY SLIDE INTO EASTERN CANADA
THIS WEEKEND...LEAVING MORE ZONAL FLOW PATTERN OVR MUCH OF THE
CONUS. STRONG JET POISED TO DIG ACROSS THE NORTH PACIFIC ALONG WITH
CUTOFF LOW BTWN HAWAII AND CALIFORNIA ALLOWS A STRONG JET TO SLIDE
INTO WESTERN CANADA AND EVENTUALLY INTO THE US ROCKIES. MAIN RESULT
WILL BE A SHARPENING TROUGH AND A COOLER UNSETTLED WEATHER PATTERN
FOR MUCH OF THE EASTERN CONUS MID-LATE NEXT WEEK. DETAILS FAR FM
IRONED OUT. MAIN ISSUE IS LOCATION OF SFC LOW FCST TO DEVELOP ON
DOWNSTREAM SECTION OF LARGE SCALE TROUGH TUE/WED. MAJORITY OF RECENT
RUNS FM GFS/ECMWF AND ASSOCIATED ENSEMBLES POINTED TO SFC LOW
LIFTING THROUGH GREAT LAKES WITH UPR MI MAINLY ON COLD SIDE OF THE
SYSTEM. LATEST ECMWF A BIT DIFFERENT WITH SFC LOW NOT FCST TO FORM
UNTIL LATE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY OVR MID ATLANTIC. 12Z GFS JOINED
IN THIS TREND. NOW...12Z ECMWF IS BACK TO SHOWING STRONG LOW
AFFECTING GREAT LAKES REGION. HPC GUIDANCE AND HAND DRAWN PROGS ARE
POINTING TOWARD A LOW IN THE GREAT LAKES TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY.
OVERALL...THERE IS DECENT SIGNAL FM MAJORITY OF MODELS THAT STRONG
SFC LOW WILL IMPACT GREAT LAKES INTO MID ATLANTIC EARLY-MID NEXT
WEEK. LIMITED RUN-TO-RUN CONSISTENCY FM MODELS LEADS TO LOW
CONFIDENCE IN DETAILS.

.AVIATION /FOR THE 18Z TAF ISSUANCE/...

VFR CONDITIONS WILL PREVAIL OVER WEST UPPER MICHIGAN AT KCMX AND
KIWD THIS AFTERNOON. SHOWERS MOVING INTO KIWD THIS EVENING WILL
LOWER CIGS AND VSBYS BACK DOWN TO MVFR BY LATE EVENING OR EARLY
OVERNIGHT. SE FLOW AT KCMX AND KSAW WILL AGAIN FAVOR MORE
FOG/STRATUS DVLPMT LATE THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. LIFR TO VLIFR
VSBYS IN FOG AT KCMX AND KSAW ARE POSSIBLE FOR THE OVERNIGHT HOURS.
SLOW IMPROVEMENT IS AGAIN EXPECTED THU MORNING.
&&

.MARINE /FOR THE 4 PM LAKE SUPERIOR FORECAST ISSUANCE/...

GENERAL PATTERN OF HIGH PRES TO THE E AND LOW PRES TO THE W WILL
RESULT IN MOSTLY S TO SE WINDS OF 10-20KT OVER LAKE SUPERIOR THROUGH
THU MORNING. THE MAIN FOCUS WILL THEN BE ON LOW PRESSURE FORMING
OVER THE MID MISSISSIPPI VALLEY/WESTERN GREAT LAKES THU AND THEN
DEEPENING AS IT TRACKS E THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES ON FRIDAY AND THEN
NORTH THROUGH QUEBEC ON SATURDAY. DURING THE FORMATIVE
STAGES...WINDS THU WILL BE ON THE LIGHTER SIDE...GENERALLY UNDER
20KT. ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE DEEPENING SYSTEM...EXPECT NW GALES
ACROSS MUCH OF THE LAKE FRI AFTERNOON INTO FRI EVENING AND THEN OVER
MAINLY CNTRL AND EASTERN LAKE SUPERIOR LATE FRI NIGHT THROUGH
SATURDAY. MODEL TRENDS SUPPORT POTENTIAL FOR A HIGHER END GALE EVENT
WITH WINDS TO 45 KNOTS FROM NORTH CENTRAL INTO EASTERN LAKE
SUPERIOR. SO...A GALE WATCH HAS BEEN ISSUED TO HIGHLIGHT THE HAZARDS
LATE THIS WEEK.
