AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
1250 AM EST WED NOV 21 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 401 PM EST TUE NOV 20 2012

HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE EASTERN SEABOARD WILL BRING MAINLY QUIET
WEATHER TO NORTHERN MICHIGAN THROUGH THANKSGIVING DAY...AS STRONG
SOUTHERLY WINDS BRING UNSEASONABLY MILD WEATHER TO NORTHERN
MICHIGAN. THE NEXT WEATHER SYSTEM WILL ALLOW A STRONG COLD FRONT TO
ENTER THE GREAT LAKES THURSDAY NIGHT. THIS SYSTEM WILL BRING RAIN TO
THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT INTO FRIDAY...BEFORE TEMPERATURES FALL AND
LAKE ENHANCED SNOW MOVES INTO THE REGION FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY.

&&

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 1249 AM EST WED NOV 21 2012

CHANGES THIS HOUR: HAVE TWEAKED CLOUD/TEMPERATURE TRENDS TO ALLOW
FOR CONTINUED SMALL HOLE IN CLOUDS /AND THUS MUCH LOWER TEMPS/ OVER
SOUTHEASTERN AREAS.  THIS HAS ALLOWED SOME LOCATIONS TO DROP BELOW
FREEZING...WHILE IT REMAINS IN THE MID 40S OVER NW LOWER.  HAVE HAD
A FEW SITES OCCASIONALLY DROP TO 1/4SM IN FOG...BUT THIS HAS BEEN
INTERMITTENT AND ISOLATED /AREA WEBCAMS BEAR THIS OUT AS WELL/.
WITH THE TREND BEING FOR STRATUS TO FILL IN ANY REMAINING
GAPS...EXPECT THAT WIDESPREAD DENSE FOG IS UNLIKELY UNLESS CURRENT
STRATUS DECK CAN BUILD TO THE GROUND.  THUS WILL CONTINUE MENTION IN
CURRENT FORECAST/HWO...BUT REFRAIN FROM ANY HEADLINES.

UPDATE ISSUED AT 1023 PM EST TUE NOV 20 2012

LOW STRATUS AND FOG CONTINUE TO BLANKET MOST OF OUR CWA...ALTHOUGH
SOME CLEARING STILL PERSISTS ACROSS NE LWR MICHIGAN. LATEST
11U-3.9U SATELLITE LOOP SHOWS STATUS/FOG SLOWLY EDGING BACK INTO
THE CLEARED AREAS OF NE LWR MICHIGAN. EXPECT THIS TREND WILL
CONTINUE AS WE HEAD INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS WITH FURTHER COOLING
OF THE BOUNDARY LAYER AND STRENGTHENING OF THE SUBSIDENCE
INVERSION...KEEPING AMPLE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TRAPPED BELOW. A FEW
SURFACE OBS ACROSS NW AND N CENTRAL LWR MICHIGAN HAVE SHOWN A
TEMPORARY DROP TO 1/4 MILE VSBY DUE TO DENSE FOG THIS
EVENING...BUT NO LOCATION HAS STAYED LOCKED INTO DENSE FOG AS OF
YET. STILL EXPECT FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF LOW STRATUS/FOG
OVERNIGHT AND DETERIORATION OF VSBYS AS SPOTTY DENSE FOG BECOMES A
BIT MORE COMMON. STILL NOT COMPLETELY SOLD ON THE IDEA OF
WIDESPREAD DENSE FOG BASED ON OBSERVED TRENDS THIS EVENING...THUS
WILL REFRAIN FROM ISSUANCE OF ANY HEADLINE OVERNIGHT. WILL
MAINTAIN MENTION OF AREAS OF DENSE FOG IN THE FORECAST...HWO AND
ON THE WEB PAGE. OTHERWISE...EXPECT A GENERALLY COOL NIGHT ACROSS
THE AREA WITH LOWS IN THE 30S TO AROUND 40 AND CALM WINDS.

UPDATE ISSUED AT 650 PM EST TUE NOV 20 2012

PATCHES OF LOW STRATUS/FOG HAVE ALREADY BEGUN TO DEVELOP ACROSS
MAINLY WRN PORTIONS OF OUR CWA THIS EVENING AS THE BOUNDARY LAYER
COOLS AND AMPLE LOW LEVEL MOISTURE BECOMES FIRMLY TRAPPED BELOW
THE STRENGTHENING SUBSIDENCE INVERSION. A FAIRLY LARGE PATCH OF
CLEARING SKIES HAS DEVELOPED ACROSS FAR NRN AND NE LWR MICHIGAN
FROM PLN TO GLR TO JUST NORTH OF APN PER LATEST SATELLITE FOG
PRODUCT. HOWEVER...EXPECT THIS CLEARING WILL BE SHORT-LIVED AS
CLEAR SKIES LEAD TO RAPID COOLING WHICH WILL LEND TO QUICK
DEVELOPMENT OF LOW STRATUS AND AREAS OF DENSE FOG. WILL CERTAINLY
KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON HOW EXTENSIVE THE DENSE FOG BECOMES FOR
HEADLINE CONSIDERATION. MBL HAS ALREADY DIPPED TO 1/4 MILE VSBY...
BUT HAS YET TO MAINTAIN THAT FOR ANY LENGTH OF TIME.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 401 PM EST TUE NOV 20 2012

NEBULOUS FORECAST CONTINUES INTO THE OVERNIGHT...BUT WITH A STRONG
TREND TOWARD A WIDESPREAD DENSE FOG EVENT LATER TONIGHT. EARLY
AFTERNOON ANALYSIS PLACES A WEAK COOL FRONT/TROUGH FROM JAMES BAY
DOWN THROUGH LAKE MICHIGAN...WITH LITTLE SENSIBLE WX ALONG THIS
FEATURE (EARLIER SHOWERS HAVE WELL SINCE ENDED). WHAT IS APPARENT
ALONG/AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE IS A RATHER SOUPY AIR MASS BY LATE
NOVEMBER STANDARDS...WITH DEW POINTS WELL INTO THE 40S JUST ABOUT
EVERYWHERE ACROSS NORTHERN MICHIGAN. WE CONTINUE TO SEE ABUNDANT
CLOUD COVER ACROSS THE CWA AS OF MID AFTERNOON...WITH A NOTABLE
BLOSSOMING OF LOW STRATUS OFF BOTH LAKE MICHIGAN AND LAKE SUPERIOR
THE PAST FEW HOURS.

HEADING THROUGH THE EVENING AND OVERNIGHT HOURS...SAID SURFACE
BOUNDARY IS EXPECTED TO ESSENTIALLY WASH OUT ACROSS THE AREA...
LEAVING LITTLE CHANGE IN AIR MASS THROUGH THE NIGHT. WIDESPREAD
4-7KFT CLOUD DECK SHOULD CONTINUE TO EXIT WITH TIME AS THE DRIVING
UPPER SHORTWAVE SLIDES TO THE SOUTHEAST. THAT WILL LEAVE A LIKELY
FURTHER INLAND EXPANSION OF ALREADY-EXISTENT LAKE STRATUS AS THE LOW
LEVEL (SUB-925MB) FLOW TURNS MORE WESTERLY...WHILE SLOWLY COOLING
BOUNDARY LAYER ALSO GOES INTO THE PRODUCTION OF FOG. NOT VERY
COMFORTING TO ALREADY SEE LOTS OF VISIBILITIES IN THE 2-4SM RANGE
ACROSS PARTS OF NORTHWEST LOWER...AND BELIEVE THIS IS ONLY A SIGN OF
THINGS TO COME TONIGHT. EXPECT TO SEE LOTS OF DENSE FOG
DEVELOPMENT...MAINLY AFTER 06Z WHEN BEST COOLING WILL TAKE PLACE...
WITH THE POSSIBLE LONE EXCEPTION BEING FAR SOUTHEAST COUNTIES WHERE
INITIAL LOWER CLOUD DECK MAY TAKE SOME TIME TO DEPART. NAM
VISIBILITY PLOTS ARE ALL OVER THIS IDEA...AS IS SREF CEILING
GUIDANCE...AND CONFIDENCE IS RATHER HIGH...ESPECIALLY GIVEN UPSTREAM
FOG/STRATUS DEVELOPMENT THIS MORNING. TEMPS TRICKY GIVEN EXPECTED
FOG/STRATUS...AND WILL SIDE WITH WARMER GFS 2M TEMPS AS A
START...WITH READINGS MAINLY IN THE 39-43F RANGE.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 401 PM EST TUE NOV 20 2012

LARGE SCALE PATTERN/FORECAST:  BLOCKING PATTERN RE-EMERGING OVER THE
PACIFIC BASIN...WITH A LARGE UPPER LOW OFF THE WEST COAST ANCHORING
THE EASTERN END OF THE BLOCK.  FLAT RIDGING HAS BEEN DEVELOPING
DOWNSTREAM OF THE PACIFIC TROUGH FROM THE SOUTHWESTERN STATES INTO
THE NORTHERN PLAINS...WHICH WILL CROSS THE GREAT LAKES WEDNESDAY
BEFORE A STRONG PIECE OF ENERGY EMERGING FROM THE PACIFIC TROUGH
WILL BRING TEMPERATURES BACK TO REALITY FOR THE COMING WEEKEND.
EVOLUTION OF THE PACIFIC BLOCK WILL HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON GREAT LAKES
WEATHER GOING FORWARD...THE DOOR WILL DEFINITELY BE OPEN FOR COLD
AIR SPILLING INTO THE GREAT LAKES...THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS.
CPC D+8 ANALOGS SHOWING A STRONG SIGNAL FOR A TIGHT EAST-WEST
BAROCLINIC ZONE AND A POTENTIAL ACTIVE PERIOD NEXT WEEK.

NARROW BUT DEEP LAYER RIDGING BUILDS ACROSS MICHIGAN FOR
WEDNESDAY...WHICH GIVES WAY TO SOUTH/SOUTHWEST LOW LEVEL FLOW FOR
THANKSGIVING DAY AS LEE SIDE CYCLONE ORGANIZES AND IS PUSHED OUT
INTO THE PLAINS AND ACROSS THE MIDWEST BY A SUPPORTING DISTURBANCE
COMING OUT OF THE EASTERN PACIFIC TROUGH.  MAIN WEATHER WILL BE WITH
THE PASSAGE OF THIS FRONT THANKSGIVING NIGHT...BUT FOG ISSUES
BENEATH THE SURFACE RIDGE WILL BE AN ISSUE FOR WEDNESDAY.

WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY: DENSE FOG WILL LIKELY BE THE RULE PRETTY
MUCH ACROSS ALL OF NORTHERN MICHIGAN TO START WEDNESDAY MORNING...
WITH A SLOW IMPROVEMENT FROM SOUTH TO NORTH FROM LATE MORNING
THROUGH EARLY AFTERNOON ASSUMING LOW LEVEL FLOW PICKS UP.  COULD BE
A NICE AFTERNOON ASSUMING WE CAN RID OURSELVES OF THE FOG AS SOME
POINT...WITH TEMPERATURES BY MID AFTERNOON RANGE FROM THE MID-UPPER
40S ACROSS EASTERN UPPER AND LOWER-MID 50S OVER NORTHERN LOWER.
WEDNESDAY NIGHT ALSO LOOKING QUIET...THOUGH SOME HINTS OF TRAPPED
MOISTURE ACROSS EASTERN UPPER LEADING TO SOME FOG AND/OR STRATUS
DEVELOPING OVERNIGHT.  SOUTH/SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL BE ON THE
INCREASE...SO WOULDN'T THINK THE PROBABILITY IS SKY HIGH BUT SOME
LIGHT FOG/HAZE POSSIBLE.

THANKSGIVING DAY DAWNS WITH A SURFACE LOW OVER NORTHERN MINNESOTA
AND A TRAILING COLD FRONT BACK TO THE SOUTHWEST.  BRISK SOUTHERLY
LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL CONTINUE ACROSS MICHIGAN...ENSURING A BREEZY BUT
MILD TURKEY DAY HOLIDAY.  AFTERNOON HIGHS WELL INTO THE 50S WITH A
FEW SPOTS (E.G. SOUTH FLOW FAVORED DOWNSLOPE AREAS) PROBABLY POKING
UP INTO THE 60S.  THESE FORECAST TEMPERATURES WILL TEST SOME RECORD
HIGHS FOR THURSDAY...WHICH ARE AS FOLLOWS: ANJ (56/1990)...
PLN (60/1990)...TVC (64/1913)...GLR (58/2010)...APN (60/1999)...AND
HTL (59/2010).  SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST WIND GUSTS OF 20-30+MPH
ANTICIPATED AS WELL.

A NARROW AXIS OF MOISTURE WILL GET FUNNELED NORTHWARD AHEAD OF THE
APPROACHING COLD FRONT...WHICH IS EXPECTED BRING AFTERNOON CLOUDS
INTO NORTHERN LOWER...AND PERHAPS SOME SHOWERS BY LATE IN THE DAY
INTO WESTERN LOWER MICHIGAN THOUGH MORE LIKELY PRECIPITATION WILL
HOLD OFF UNTIL THURSDAY EVENING.  COLD FRONT EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO
THE FORECAST AREA AFTER MIDNIGHT FRIDAY...SWITCHING WINDS TO THE
WEST AND STARTING TO PUSH TEMPERATURES BACK DOWN TO LATE NOVEMBER
REALITY.  POSSIBLE THAT MUCH OF THE PRECIPITATION WILL EXIT TO THE
EAST THURSDAY EVENING...AND AS COLDEST AIR LOOKS TO LAG COLD FRONT
BY A FEW HOURS NOT EXPECTING LAKE EFFECT TO KICK IN UNTIL LATER
FRIDAY.  BUT WON'T TRY TO SLICE AND DICE PRECIPITATION TIMING
THURSDAY NIGHT THIS FAR OUT.

FRIDAY DEFINITELY LOOKS COLDER WITH GUSTY WEST/NORTHWEST WINDS
PUSHING THE MERCURY DOWNWARD THROUGH THE DAY.  EXPECT TEMPERATURES
BY LATE AFTERNOON TO HAVE DROPPED INTO THE UPPER 20S-LOWER 30S
ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA.  EVOLUTION OF PRECIP CHANCES A LITTLE
TRICKIER ON FRIDAY...WITH A DRY SLOT INITIALLY PUNCHING INTO THE
FORECAST AREA BEHIND THE COLD FRONT DURING THE MORNING...THEN A
DEFORMATION BAND OF PRECIPITATION HANGING BEHIND THE MAIN UPPER
WAVE.  THIS IS IN ADDITION TO INCREASING OVER WATER INSTABILITY AS
850MB TEMPERATURES DROP TOWARD -10C.  SO THIS SHOULD GET SOME
SEMBLANCE OF LAKE EFFECT/LAKE ENHANCED SNOWFALL AT LEAST BY
AFTERNOON (TEMPERATURES EXPECTED TO BE COLD ENOUGH FOR ALL SNOW BY
THEN).  THINGS DO LOOK PROMISING FOR A DECENT NORTHWEST FLOW LAKE
EFFECT EVENT STARTING FRIDAY NIGHT...ESPECIALLY IF WINDS CAN LOCK IN
A BIT AND HIT THE EASTERN UPPER 320-330 SNOWBELT AND THE "BIG 6"
COUNTIES OF NORTHWEST LOWER.  WILL CONTINUE TO HIT THE POSSIBILITY
IN THE AFTERNOON HAZARDOUS WEATHER OUTLOOK

JPB

SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY: LINGERING LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS WILL
CONTINUE INTO THE DAY SATURDAY...BEFORE DIMINISHING IN COVERAGE/
INTENSITY AS SHORT WAVE RIDGING BUILDS IN AND MID-LEVEL MOISTURE
SCOURS OUT OF THE REGION FOR THE LATTER HALF OF SATURDAY. LOWERED
MAX TEMPS A COUPLE OF DEGREES SATURDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHT...BASED
ON MODEL TRENDS. ATTENTION THEN TURNS TO A SECOND...MUCH WEAKER
WAVE THAT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES DURING THE SUNDAY TO
EARLY MONDAY TIME FRAME. COULD SEE SOME CONTINUED LIGHT LAKE EFFECT
SNOW SHOWERS AHEAD OF THE WAVE SATURDAY NIGHT FOR NW LOWER AND
EASTERN UPPER...AS THE FLOW BEGINS TO VEER MORE TO THE SOUTHWEST
WITH FAVORABLE DELTA T'S. WITH THE PASSAGE OF THIS WEAK WAVE...THE
UPPER AIR FLOW BECOMES MUCH MORE ZONAL...AT LEAST TEMPORARILY
THROUGH MONDAY...BEFORE GULF OF ALASKA LOW BREAKS DOWN AND POLAR
VORTEX LOOKS TO BECOME ESTABLISHED OVER NORTHERN CANADA. A MORE
ACTIVE...WINTER-LIKE WEATHER PATTERN LOOKS TO BECOME ESTABLISHED
AT THE VERY END..AND JUST BEYOND THE FORECAST PERIOD...AS THE
AFOREMENTIONED VORTEX ALLOWS POLAR JET TO CARVE OUT STRONG
TROUGHING OVER THE WESTERN TWO THIRDS OF THE CONUS. PATTERN
RECOGNITION PUTS THE GREAT LAKES IN A FAVORABLE STORM TRACK...
ALTHOUGH TIMING OF SPECIFIC PIECES OF ENERGY...AND ASSOCIATED
P-TYPE REMAIN DIFFICULT TO DISCERN AT THIS FORECAST RANGE.
HENCE...LEFT POPS MORE OR LESS UNCHANGED FOR LATTER PARTS OF THE
FORECAST PERIOD.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z WEDNESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1249 AM EST WED NOV 21 2012

OVERVIEW: AMPLE LLEVEL MOISTURE IN PLACE WITH OLD COLD FRONT WASHING
OUT OVERHEAD.  STAGNANT PATTERN THROUGH EARLY MORNING WEDNESDAY
BEFORE LOW PRESSURE BEGINS TO PUSH INTO THE NORTHERN PLAINS THIS
AFTERNOON ALLOWING SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS TO STRENGTHEN...SCOURING OUT
LLEVEL MOISTURE AN BRINGING IMPROVING FLYING CONDITIONS.

RESTRICTION POTENTIAL: HIGH LIKELIHOOD OF IFR RESTRICTIONS ALL
TERMINALS THROUGH JUST PAST DAYBREAK...BOTH DUE TO CIGS AND VSBYS.
WORST VSBY RESTRICTIONS ARE CURRENTLY AT APN AS THIS AREA WAS CLEAR
EARLIER...BUT EXPECT THESE TO COME UP A LITTLE WHEN STRATUS DECK
JUST NW OF THE TERMINAL BUILDS IN OVER THE NEXT 1-2 HOURS.  IT/S
GOING TO BE TOUGH TO SCATTER THIS STUFF OUT TODAY...AND IT WILL HAVE
TO WAIT FOR INCREASED MIXING PROGGED BY LATE MORNING/EARLY
AFTERNOON.  HAVE DELAYED VFR ARRIVAL UNTIL 17-18Z...BUT ONCE IT
BEGINS TO BREAK...IT SHOULD GO QUICK WITH VFR CONDITIONS FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE TAF PERIOD.

CONFIDENCE: HIGH ON IFR THROUGH DAYBREAK...WITH LOWER CONFIDENCE IN
ANY PERSISTENT VLIFR CONDITIONS.  HIGH CONFIDENCE IN IMPROVEMENT
DURING THE DAY WEDNESDAY...BUT TIMING STILL SOMEWHAT IN QUESTION.

WINDS: CALM THROUGH DAYBREAK...THEN BECOMING SOUTHWEST 08G16KTS BY
AFTERNOON TODAY.  WINDS WILL WEAKEN TO AROUND 5KTS FROM THE SOUTH
TONIGHT.

LLWS:  A GOOD LLWS SCENARIO LOOKS TO BEGIN SETTING UP TOWARDS THE
END OF THE TAF PERIOD /AFTER 03Z THURSDAY/ AS SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS
STRENGTHEN JUST OFF THE DECK...WITH A RELATIVELY WEAK /BUT
STRENGTHENING/ SURFACE GRADIENT.  GIVEN ABOVE AVERAGE CONFIDENCE
WITH THIS SETUP...HAVE ADDED MENTION IN THIS TAF PACKAGE AT ALL
TERMINALS.

.MARINE...
ISSUED AT 401 PM EST TUE NOV 20 2012

POST-WEAK COLD FRONT SURFACE HIGH WILL SLIDE INTO MICHIGAN TONIGHT...
WITH THE RESULTANT FLAT GRADIENT LEADING TO LIGHT WINDS. LOW
VISIBILITIES IN FOG WILL BECOME AN ISSUE TONIGHT AND CONTINUE INTO
THE FIRST PART OF WEDNESDAY. FOG WILL LIKELY LINGER ACROSS THE
STRAITS AND ST. MARY'S RIVER/WHITEFISH BAY INTO EARLY AFTERNOON.
GRADIENT TIGHTENS UP WEDNESDAY NIGHT ALLOWING WINDS TO PICK UP OUT
OF THE SOUTH/SOUTHWEST. WILL LIKELY REQUIRE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORIES
ON LAKE MICHIGAN AS EARLY AS WEDNESDAY NIGHT...AND DEFINITELY
THURSDAY WITH SOME LOW END GALE FORCE GUSTS NOT OUT OF THE
QUESTION.
