AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
1032 AM EDT WED MAY 30 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 414 AM EDT WED MAY 30 2012

AN UNSEASONABLY DEEP UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BRING SHARPLY COLDER
TEMPERATURES TO THE AREA TODAY INTO TONIGHT. WHILE TEMPERATURES WILL
RECOVER SOME THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY...THEY WILL REMAIN COOLER
THAN NORMAL. LOW PRESSURE WILL BRING SOME RAIN TO THE REGION FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY. WARMER TEMPERATURES ARE THEN EXPECTED TO CLOSE OUT THE
WEEKEND.

&&

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 1030 AM EDT WED MAY 30 2012

BASED ON THE RADAR WILL PROBABLY MAKE SOME MINOR TWEAKS TO THE
POPS AND WEATHER FOR LARGER COVERAGE, OTHERWISE THE FORECAST
ITSELF LOOK PRETTY GOOD FOR THE TIME BEING.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 417 AM EDT WED MAY 30 2012

LARGE SCALE PATTERN EARLY THIS MORNING FEATURES SHORT WAVE ENERGY
MOVING ACROSS NORTHEAST ONTARIO...WITH ADDITIONAL ENERGY DROPPING
SOUTHEAST INTO FAR NORTHWEST ONTARIO.  ADDITIONAL SHORT WAVE TROUGHS
WERE NOTED ACROSS THE DAKOTAS AND ALONG THE MONTANA/CANADA BORDER.
05Z SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS A 998MB LOW OVER NORTHWEST QUEBEC...WITH
A TRAILING SURFACE BOUNDARY EXTENDING BACK TO THE WEST-SOUTHWEST
ACROSS THE UPPER PENINSULA AND INTO NORTHWEST WISCONSIN.  LOW/MID
LEVEL COLD ADVECTION IN WAKE OF DEPARTING SHORT WAVE TROUGH
RESULTING IN DECENT SUBSIDENCE ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA EARLY
ON...WITH SKIES MAINLY CLEAR/PARTLY CLOUDY.  SPOTTY SHOWERS HAVE
BEEN TRYING UNSUCCESSFULLY TO MOVE INTO NORTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN
DURING THE EARLY MORNING HOURS THANKS TO THIS SUBSIDENCE.  THERE IS
ANOTHER MID LEVEL WAVE ACROSS MINNESOTA THAT HAS MORE SUBSTANTIAL
CLOUD COVER ACROSS MINNESOTA/ WISCONSIN...AND THERE IS STILL A GOOD
BIT OF MOISTURE TO THE NORTH AND NORTHWEST OF THE FORECAST AREA.

THIS LATTER SHORT WAVE TROUGH WILL BE THE MAIN CONCERN TODAY...AS
FORCING WITH THIS WAVE COMBINED WITH CONTINUED LOW LEVEL COLD
ADVECTION (850MB TEMPERATURES LIKELY DIPPING BELOW ZERO THIS
AFTERNOON ACROSS A GOOD CHUNK OF THE FORECAST AREA) WILL LEAD TO
CLOUD COVER ISSUES.  HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING IN TONIGHT WILL ALSO
LEAD TO THOUGHTS ABOUT FROST POTENTIAL THURSDAY MORNING.

FIRST OFF...EXPECT CLOUDS TO INCREASE FAIRLY QUICKLY ACROSS NORTHERN
MICHIGAN THIS MORNING DUE TO A COMBINATION OF LOW CLOUDS BEHIND
SURFACE TROUGH/COLD FRONT ACROSS UPPER MICHIGAN...MID CLOUDS
SPREADING OUT OF WISCONSIN AHEAD OF MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE TROUGH...
AND DIURNAL DEVELOPMENT AS LOW LEVEL TEMPERATURES CONTINUE TO COOL.
GIVEN WIDELY SCATTERED RADAR RETURNS UPSTREAM THIS MORNING...
PROBABLY CAN'T RULE OUT SOME SPOTTY SPRINKLES OR LIGHT SHOWERS
ESPECIALLY ACROSS NORTHERN LOWER THROUGH MID AFTERNOON WITH TQ
INDICES CLIMBING INTO THE MID/UPPER TEENS.  AFTERNOON HIGHS WILL BE
MAINLY IN THE 50S EXCEPT IN THE SOUTHEAST THIRD OF THE FORECAST AREA
WHERE EXPECT HIGHS WILL REACH INTO THE 60S.

DEEP LAYER SUBSIDENCE WILL OVERSPREAD THE FORECAST AREA THIS
EVENING...ALLOWING CLOUDS TO THIN.  MONTANA SHORT WAVE ENERGY WILL
BY DROPPING INTO THE MIDWEST AND SPREADING PRECIPITATION INTO
MINNESOTA/IOWA...WILL HAVE TO WATCH AND SEE IF ANY MID CLOUDS FROM
THIS FEATURE TRY TO NUDGE INTO NORTHERN LOWER OVERNIGHT.  PRESSURE
GRADIENT WILL WEAKEN TONIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE APPROACHES THOUGH WINDS
MAY TAKE MUCH OF THE NIGHT TO DECOUPLE ACROSS EASTERN UPPER/
NORTHEAST LOWER.  SO A FEW VARIABLES THERE THAT WILL IMPACT LOW
TEMPERATURES TONIGHT...THUS WILL OPT NOT TO ISSUE AN EARLY FROST
ADVISORY. WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION IN THE HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 417 AM EDT WED MAY 30 2012

AN UNSEASONABLY DEEP UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL CONTINUE TO BRING COOL
AIR INTO THE REGION THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEKEND.
MEANWHILE...EXTENDED MODELS ARE IN GOOD AGREEMENT THAT ENERGY
ROUNDING THE BASE OF THIS TROUGH WILL SPIN UP AN AREA OF SURFACE LOW
PRESSURE THURSDAY THAT HEADS NORTHEAST AND TRACKS ACROSS THE CENTRAL
GREAT LAKES FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY. HOWEVER...THE PAST FEW MODEL RUNS
HAVE BEEN FAIRLY INCONSISTENT WITH THE TIMING AND THE EXACT TRACK OF
THIS SYSTEM (WHICH MAY AFFECT EXACTLY WHEN/WHERE RAIN WILL FALL).
THE MAIN LONG TERM FORECAST CONCERNS REVOLVE AROUND POPS THROUGH THE
PERIOD.

THURSDAY...IT LOOKS LIKE A FAIRLY NICE DAY WITH SURFACE HIGH
PRESSURE IN CONTROL FOR THE MOST PART. HOWEVER...LOW PRESSURE
DEVELOPING TO OUR SOUTH LOOKS LIKE IT WILL BEGIN TO SPREAD MID/HIGH
CLOUDS INTO THE REGION. AS 850 MB TEMPERATURES MODERATE INTO THE
PLUS 3 TO 6 C RANGE...HIGHS IN THE UPPER 50S TO MIDDLE 60S ARE
EXPECTED.

THURSDAY NIGHT...HIGH PRESSURE PUSHES OFF TO OUR EAST...AS LOW
PRESSURE GATHERS STRENGTH ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY. CLOUDS SHOULD
INCREASE AND THICKEN FROM SOUTH TO NORTH AS THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
APPROACHES FROM THE SOUTH. THERE WILL BE INCREASING CHANCES FOR
RAIN...MAINLY AFTER MIDNIGHT...ACROSS THE SOUTHERN FORECAST AREA.
WILL LIKELY SEE A QUICK DROP OFF IN TEMPS IN THE EVENING SO WILL
KEEP LOWS RANGING FROM THE UPPER 30S NORTHEAST TO NEAR 50 SOUTHWEST
(ONLY AN OUTSIDE CHANCE FOR ISOLATED FROST NORTH).

FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY...LOW PRESSURE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE
CENTRAL GREAT LAKES FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY EVENTUALLY SPREADING RAIN
INTO MUCH (IF NOT ALL) OF THE FORECAST AREA. MODEL CONSISTENCY HAS
BEEN LACKING CONCERNING THE TRACK (AND THE TIMING TO A CERTAIN
EXTENT). THE TRACK HAS NOW SHIFTING A BIT FARTHER EAST WHICH IS NOW
OVER THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES. IN ADDITION...THE NAM IN PARTICULAR
TAKES ITS TIME MOISTENING UP THE COLUMN FRIDAY DUE TO A DRY EASTERLY
FLOW. THEREFORE...WILL RAMP UP POPS FROM SOUTH TO NORTH
FRIDAY...GOING WITH CATEGORICAL POPS EAST FRIDAY NIGHT THEN BACK
POPS DOWN INTO THE CHANCE CATEGORY SATURDAY AS THE SYSTEM EXITS OFF
TO THE NORTHEAST. HIGHS IN THE MIDDLE 50S TO NEAR 60 FRIDAY AND THE
UPPER 50S TO MIDDLE 60S SATURDAY.

SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY...WEAK HIGH PRESSURE NOSES IN FOR SUNDAY
LIKELY BRINGING PRECIPITATION FREE CONDITIONS. A WARM FRONT WILL
THEN BRING A CHANCE FOR SHOWERS SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY. IT LOOKS
LIKE PRECIPITATION FREE CONDITIONS FOR TUESDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE
RETURNS. HIGHS RANGING FROM THE MIDDLE TO UPPER 60S NORTH TO THE
MIDDLE 70S SOUTH. LOWS RANGING FROM THE UPPER 40S TO THE 50S.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z THURSDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 651 AM EDT WED MAY 30 2012

PERIOD OF MVFR CEILINGS THIS MORNING BEHIND A SECONDARY COLD
FRONT...OTHERWISE VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH THURSDAY MORNING.

&&

.MARINE...
ISSUED AT 417 AM EDT WED MAY 30 2012

WESTERLY WINDS WILL BECOME NORTHWEST THIS MORNING...LIKELY
REMAINING BELOW 20KTS TODAY. BUT AS HIGH PRESSURE TRIES TO PUSH IN
FROM THE WEST TONIGHT...GRADIENT MAY TIGHTEN UP A BIT OVER LAKE
HURON AND THUS COULD LEAD TO SOME SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS
POSSIBLY BY LATE AFTERNOON (AIDED BY COASTAL CONVERGENCE IN
NORTHWEST FLOW). WINDS MAY ALSO BE GUSTY FOR A TIME ON WHITEFISH
BAY AND ALONG THE ST. MARY'S RIVER.
