AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MARQUETTE MI
235 PM EDT SAT JUL 30 2011

UPDATED AVIATION DISCUSSION FOR 18Z TAFS

.UPDATE...

SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AHEAD OF A CONVECTIVELY INDUCED SHORTWAVE
OVER MN HAVE MOVED INTO THE WRN FORECAST AREA. WITH MODELS
INDICATING 1500-2500J/KG OF SBCAPE AND LITTLE CIN...STORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO MOVE/DEVELOP OVER THE CWA THIS AFTERNOON INTO THIS
EVENING. WIND SHEAR IS FAIR WEAK AT 25-35KTS...SO STORMS SHOULD NOT
BECOME INCREDIBLY ORGANIZED. NORTHERN BOUND FOR MOST OF THE
CONVECTION WILL BE THE LAKE SUPERIOR BREEZE...WHICH WILL REMAIN
FAIRLY CLOSE TO SHORE GIVEN STEADY SW WINDS...AND MAY ACT TO LOCALLY
INTENSIFY STORMS. STORMS SHOULD STAY FOCUSED OVER THE WRN CWA AS LAKE
MODERATION OFF LAKE MI OVER THE ERN CWA WILL NOT BE FAVORABLE FOR
THE CONVECTION. GIVEN THE CURRENT LINEAR STRUCTURE OF THE
STORMS...STRONG TO SEVERE WINDS APPEARS TO BE THE PRIMARY
THREAT...BUT THERE IS A LARGE HAIL THREAT AS WELL. TORNADO POTENTIAL
APPEARS VERY LOW GIVEN WEAK SHEAR AND LINEAR NATURE OF STORMS. STORM
DEVELOPMENT/MAINTENANCE WILL BE AIDED BY WAA ONGOING OVER THE
CWA...AND THETA-E ADVECTION AHEAD OF THE CONVECTIVE LINE.

&&

PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED AT 752 AM EDT SAT JUL 30 2011...

.SYNOPSIS...

WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND RUC ANALYSIS CONTINUE TO SHOW NEARLY ZONAL
FLOW ACROSS THE NRN CONUS TO THE N OF AN EXPANSIVE HIGH PRES RIDGE
ACROSS THE SRN CONUS. TWO MAIN SHORTWAVES ARE EMBEDDED IN THE WRLY
FLOW. ONE IS MOVING THRU SE CANADA AND NEW ENGLAND WHILE THE SECOND
IS OVER SASKATCHEWAN. A MINOR SHORTWAVE OVER THE ERN DAKOTAS APPEARS
TO BE BECOMING BETTER DEFINED AND IS ACCOMPANIED BY A CLUSTER OF
SHRA/TSRA. CLOSER TO HOME...WEAK RIDGING AHEAD OF SASKATCHEWAN
SHORTWAVE IS SUPPORTING SFC HIGH PRES OVER THE MIDWEST AND WRN GREAT
LAKES. RESULT HAS BEEN A GENERALLY QUIET NIGHT ACROSS THE FCST
AREA...THOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN PESKY ISOLD -SHRA OCCURRING OVER
PORTIONS OF THE SW INTO SCNTRL FCST AREA.

&&

.DISCUSSION...

FCST IN THE SHORT TERM WILL REVOLVE AROUND MAIN SHORTWAVE CURRENTLY
TRACKING THRU SASKATCHEWAN AND THE OTHER SHORTWAVE OVER THE ERN
DAKOTAS. IN THE LONGER TERM...OVERALL PATTERN WILL CONTINUE TO
SUPPORT ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS THRU THIS FCST PERIOD. BEST POTENTIAL FOR
PCPN MAY OCCUR MON NIGHT/TUE WITH SHORTWAVE PASSING THRU THE UPPER
GREAT LAKES.

WAA AND MOISTURE ADVECTION WILL GET UNDERWAY TODAY AHEAD OF
SHORTWAVE TRACKING FROM SASKATCHEWAN TO NRN ONTARIO. AHEAD OF THIS
FEATURE...THE SHORTWAVE CURRENTLY OVER THE ERN DAKOTAS SHOULD TRACK
ACROSS UPPER MI THIS AFTN. TIMING WILL FAVORABLY COINCIDE WITH MAX
DAYTIME HEATING AND BUILDING INSTABILITY...AND SINCE WAVE APPEARS TO
BE BECOMING BETTER DEFINED...CONVECTION NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED.
THERE IS SOME CONCERN THAT WAVE WILL OUTRUN THE BETTER MOISTURE
RETURN...BUT FCST SOUNDINGS LOOK SUPPORTIVE OF AT LEAST A SMALL
POTENTIAL OF CONVECTION. MODIFIED FOR A SFC T/TD OF UPPER 80S/AROUND
60...FCST SOUNDINGS YIELD CAPE OF 1000-1500J/KG. SW WINDS WILL NOT
BE STRONG ENOUGH TO COMPLETELY HOLD OFF LAKE SUPERIOR LAKE BREEZE IN
ALL AREAS...SO THERE WILL BE A LOW-LEVEL FOCUSING MECHANISM. LAKE
MICHIGAN IS NOW BECOMING A SOURCE OF LOW-LEVEL MOISTURE AS WATER
CONTINUES TO WARM...AND IT'S NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT LOCALLY
HIGHER SFC DWPTS SPREADING N WITH LAKE BREEZE COMPONENT TO
PREVAILING WIND COULD ALSO TRIGGER ISOLD CONVECTION FARTHER E AS
WELL. WITH THAT SAID...WILL CARRY SLIGHT CHC POPS IN THE LATE AFTN
ACROSS THE AREAS WHERE IT APPEARS THERE WILL BE SOME LOW-LEVEL
CONVERGENCE DEVELOPING...GENERALLY THE WRN AND NRN FCST AREA. MIXING
TO 800-750MB SUPPORTS MAX TEMPS WELL INTO THE UPPER 80S AWAY FROM
ANY LAKE MODERATION.

IF THERE IS ANY CONVECTION THIS AFTN...IT WILL PROBABLY TEND TO
DIMINISH/POSSIBLY END IN THE EVENING AS SHORTWAVE EXITS. ATTENTION
THEN TURNS TO MAIN SHORTWAVE SHIFTING E ACROSS NRN ONTARIO. TAIL OF
WAVE WILL JUST BRUSH BY THE FCST AREA WITH VERY LITTLE IF ANY HEIGHT
FALLS NOTED HERE. AT 00Z...ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL STILL BE WELL
TO THE W IN MN. WITH FRONT ARRIVING DURING MIN DIURNAL HEATING TIME
AND WITH BULK OF FORCING PASSING BY TO THE N...IT WOULD SEEM THAT
SFC BASED CONVECTION THAT WILL BE OCCURRING IN NE MN ALONG/AHEAD OF
THE FRONT LATE AFTN/EARLY EVENING SHOULD GENERALLY DECREASE IN
INTENSITY/COVERAGE AS IT MOVES INTO UPPER MI DURING THE NIGHT. SO FOR
NOW...NOTHING MORE THAN LOWER CHC POPS SEEMS WARRANTED.

COLD FRONT WILL SLOWLY SETTLE SSE THRU THE FCST AREA SUN...EXITING
MENOMINEE COUNTY IN THE EVENING. EXPECT SOME REDEVELOPMENT OF
CONVECTION SUN AS STRENGTHENING LAKE BREEZE COMPONENTS TO THE WIND
WILL INCREASE LOW-LEVEL CONVERGENCE INTO FRONTAL BOUNDARY DROPPING
THRU THE SCNTRL AND SE FCST AREA DURING PEAK HEATING. THUS...BEST
CHC OF SHRA/TSRA WILL BE OVER THE SCNTRL/SE FCST AREA... BUT EVEN
THERE...NOTHING MORE THAN CHC POPS WILL BE UTILIZED AS IT APPEARS
CONVECTION WILL HAVE LIMITED COVERAGE DUE TO LACK OF STRONGER
FORCING AND DUE TO RATHER PRONOUNCED MIDLEVEL DRYING PUSHING INTO
THE AREA. MODIFIED FCST SOUNDINGS FOR A SFC T/TD OF UPPER 80S/MID
60S YIELDS CAPE UPWARDS OF 2000-2500J/KG. RISK OF SHRA/TSRA WILL END
W AND N BY AFTN IN THE WAKE OF COLD FRONT.

WITH DEPARTURE OF COLD FRONT...ANY LINGERING CONVECTION OVER THE FAR
SCNTRL WILL END SUN EVENING. WITH MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES...WINDS
BECOMING LIGHT...AND PRECIPITABLE WATER FALLING TO 50-75PCT OF
NORMAL...TEMPS SHOULD BE ABLE TO RADIATE DOWN TOWARD TYPICAL LATE
JULY/EARLY AUG MINS...ESPECIALLY W WHERE SFC HIGH PRES ARRIVES LATE.
TEMPS THERE SHOULD FALL TOWARD THE LOWER 50S IN THE INTERIOR. UPPER
50S/LWR 60S SHOULD PREVAIL ELSEWHERE...WARMEST ALONG THE GREAT
LAKES.

MON...MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGE AXIS EXTENDING FROM SRN CONUS
SUBTROPICAL HIGH WILL SHIFT INTO THE UPPER LAKES. AT THE SFC...
ASSOCIATED HIGH PRES WILL SLOWLY SHIFT ACROSS THE UPPER GREAT LAKES.
THERE ARE HINTS THAT A MINOR SHORTWAVE MAY EMERGE FROM SUN NIGHT
CONVECTION OVER THE NRN PLAINS...AND THAT WAVE MAY TRACK ACROSS THE
AREA MON AFTN. EVEN IF IT DOES...IT WILL OUTRUN MOISTURE RETURN...
AND THUS SHOULDN'T POSE A RISK OF PCPN HERE MON.

RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO DOMINATE THE SRN CONUS NEXT WEEK. THIS WILL
RESULT IN MOSTLY ZONAL FLOW PERSISTING ACROSS THE NRN CONUS/SRN
CANADA WITH SHORTWAVES OCCASIONALLY PASSING THRU THE AREA. MODELS
STILL SUGGEST NEXT SHORTWAVE WILL AFFECT THE UPPER LAKES MON
NIGHT/TUE. STRENGTHENING LOW-LEVEL JET/THETA-E ADVECTION AND
ADVECTION OF INSTABILITY WILL LIKELY SUPPORT SHRA/TSRA...POSSIBLY AN
MCS ACROSS THE UPPER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND GREAT LAKES REGION MON
NIGHT/TUE MORNING. PLACEMENT OF CONVECTION IS ALWAYS DIFFICULT...BUT
STILL THINK MAIN PUSH OF SHRA/TSRA MAY BE JUST SW OF THE FCST AREA
CLOSER TO POOL OF BETTER INSTABILITY DESPITE CONSENSUS OF LATEST
ROUND OF MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE DRIVING MAIN PCPN AXIS FARTHER N
ACROSS UPPER MI AGAIN. SOME AREAS OF UPPER MI ARE GETTING QUITE
DRY...SO A WIDESPREAD RAINFALL WOULD BE WELCOME.

&&

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

VFR CONDITIONS SHOULD CONTINUE AT BOTH SITES THROUGH AT LEAST EARLY
SATURDAY EVENING. ALTHOUGH THERE COULD BE SOME PATCHY GROUND FOG
ACROSS UPPER MICHIGAN OVERNIGHT TONIGHT GIVEN THE INCREASED MOISTURE
ACROSS THE AREA. HOWEVER...CONFIDENCE IS NOT HIGH ENOUGH TO INCLUDE
IN THE TERMINALS. WINDS WILL BE A LITTLE WEAKER ON SATURDAY COMPARED
TO FRIDAY. THIS SHOULD ALLOW A STRONGER LAKE BREEZE AT SAW SAT
AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE...CONVECTION OVER THE WESTERN DAKOTAS
ASSOCIATED WITH A COLD FRONT WILL ATTEMPT TO MOVE INTO UPPER MI LATE
SAT AFTN INTO SAT NIGHT. STILL UNCLEAR IF THE STORMS WILL SURVIVE AS
THE MOVE INTO UPPER MICHIGAN GIVEN THE DRY AIR ACROSS THE AREA AND
HAVE NOT INCLUDED ANY MENTION OF TS IN THE TERMINALS. HAVE OPTED TO
BRING CIGS DOWN TO 5000 FT BY SAT EVENING FOR BOTH SITES AS THE
FRONT APPROACHES THE AREA.

&&

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

WINDS SHOULD REMAIN AT OR BELOW 25 KTS THROUGH THE FORECAST PERIOD.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE IN CONTROL...EXCEPT FOR WHEN LOW PRESSURE
TROUGHS PASS OVER THE AREA LATE TONIGHT INTO SUNDAY MORNING...THEN
AGAIN ON TUESDAY. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS MAY OCCUR AS THESE TROUGHS
MOVE THROUGH.
