AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DULUTH MN
304 PM CDT SUN MAR 25 2012

.SHORT TERM...

TONIGHT THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT...

MAIN SHORT TERM CONCERNS ARE FOCUSED AROUND THE NEXT INCOMING
STORM SYSTEM EXPECTED TO BRING SHOWERS AND A CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS TO MOST OF THE NORTHLAND MONDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
MONDAY NIGHT. THERE IS ALSO THE POTENTIAL FOR LIGHT FREEZING RAIN
ACROSS THE ARROWHEAD MONDAY NIGHT.

UPPER RIDGE POSITIONED OVER CENTRAL US AS A CUT OFF LOW MOVES
THROUGH THE CAROLINAS AND THE NEXT UPPER TROUGH DIGS INTO THE SRN
CA COAST. A DRY COLD 500MB S/W IS SLIDING THROUGH SRN MANITOBA AND
WRN ONTARIO AND IS MODERATING THE AMPLITUDE AND AMT OF WARMTH IN
THE RIDGE. THEREFORE...CONDITIONS ARE DRY THIS AFTERNOON...WITH
WIDESPREAD TEMPERATURES RANGING FROM THE UPPER 30S ACROSS THE
NORTH TO NEAR 50 IN THE SRN COUNTIES.

A LARGE SFC HIGH IN CENTRAL CANADA WILL TRACK TO EAST TONIGHT AND
ALLOW WINDS TO SHIFT FROM NORTH TO NE. THE PRESENCE AND LOCATION
OF THIS HIGH WILL ALLOW THE NE WINDS TO PERSIST THROUGH TOMORROW
MORNING AND KEEP TEMPERATURES RATHER COOL...ESPECIALLY NEAR THE
TWIN PORTS. AS THIS HIGH SHIFTS EWD...THE UPPER TROUGH OVER THE SW
WILL QUICKLY EJECT NEWD THROUGH THE ROCKIES AND PRODUCE STRONG
CYCLOGENESIS OVER THE CO/WY/NE/SD REGION. A WARM FRONT WILL EXTEND
EWD...AND LIFT TO THE NORTH THROUGH MON AFTERNOON. THE BULK OF THE
PRECIP WILL DEVELOP ALONG THIS FRONT AS THE SFC LOW MOVES THROUGH
ND AND INTO NW MN.

THERE ARE TWO MAIN CONCERNS WITH THIS SYSTEM THROUGH MON
NIGHT/EARLY TUE MORNING. THE FIRST IS THE CHANCE OF
THUNDERSTORMS...MAINLY OVER THE WRN/SWRN COUNTIES OF THE NORTHLAND
ALONG AN AXIS OF ELEVATED INSTABILITY AND ON THE NOSE OF STRONG
MID-LEVEL THETA-E/WARM AIR ADVECTION. THE AMT OF INSTABILITY
APPEARS TO BE SOMEWHAT LIMITED AT THIS POINT...SO JUST WENT WITH
CHC OF THUNDER...AND NOT EXPECTING ANY SEVERE WX AT THIS POINT.

THE SECOND CONCERN IS THE POTENTIAL FOR LIGHT FREEZING RAIN OVER
PARTS OF THE NORTHLAND FROM FRI MID-EVENING THROUGH 12Z TUE. WITH
A SFC LAYER OF COLD AIR IN PLACE...COMBINED WITH STRONG WAA ALOFT
AND A ROBUST SUPPLY OF MOISTURE...CONDITIONS BECOME FAVORABLE FOR
FZRA MAIN N AND E OF A LINE FROM INTERNATIONAL FALLS TO EVELETH MN
TO PARK FALLS WI. PREVIOUS FORECAST HAS FZRA FURTHER SOUTH...INTO
THE TWIN PORTS. HOWEVER LATEST GUIDANCE IS INDICATING THE BEST
CHANCE FOR FZRA WILL REMAIN CONFINED TO THE ARROWHEAD AND POSSIBLY
INTO SECTIONS OF NRN WI. FZRA AMOUNTS SHOULD BE LESS THAN 0.05
INCH. COULD POSSIBLY NEED A FZRA ADVISORY FOR LAKE AND/OR COOK
COUNTY DURING THIS TIME...BUT WILL HOLD OFF AT THIS POINT DUE TO
CONTINUED UNCERTAINTY.

COOLED TEMPERATURES TONIGHT AND TOMORROW AS THE GUSTY NE WINDS
KICK UP TONIGHT AND PERSIST THROUGH TOMORROW. LOWS TONIGHT WILL
RANGE FROM THE LOWER 20S ACROSS THE NORTH...TO LOWER 30S ACROSS
THE SOUTH. HIGHS TOMORROW WILL ONLY REACH INTO THE 30S TO MID 40S
TOMORROW...WITH THE COOLEST READINGS AROUND LAKE SUPERIOR.

.LONG TERM...

TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY...

STACKED LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE ALONG TO THE NORTHCENTRAL
MN/OT BORDER BY 00Z WED. THE NAM CONTINUES TO BE THE NORTHERN
OUTLIER COMPARED TO THE GEM/GFS/EC. STRONG LOW LEVEL FLOW SHOULD
BRING ENOUGH WARM AIR INTO THE ARROWHEAD TO SWITCH ALL THE PRECIP
OVER TO RAIN DURING THE DAY. WE WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE HIGHEST POPS
OVER THE NORTH THROUGH THE DAY...AND TAPER THEM DOWN IN THE SOUTH.
COLDER AIR WILL FILTER INTO THE REGION AS THE LOW CONTINUES TO
MOVE EAST TUESDAY NIGHT. TEMPERATURES SHOULD COOL ENOUGH FOR THE
RAIN TO MIX WITH OR CHANGE OVER TO SNOW OVER THE NORTHWEST HALF OF
THE CWA...ALTHOUGH ANY ACCUMULATION WILL BE LIGHT. CYCLONIC FLOW
AND LINGERING MOISTURE WILL KEEP SOME RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS GOING OVER
PORTIONS OF THE NORTHLAND WEDNESDAY.

BRIEF RIDGING WEDNESDAY NIGHT WILL BE FLATTENED SOME BY A
SHORTWAVE MOVING IN FROM THE WEST. MODELS DIVERGE IN THEIR
SOLUTIONS THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY. WE HAVE POPS IN THE GRIDS FOR
PORTIONS OF THE NORTHLAND THROUGH MOST OF THE THURSDAY THROUGH
SUNDAY PERIOD. THE ECMWF IS STRONGER AND COLDER WITH A SYSTEM FOR
NEXT WEEKEND...AND WE COULD SEE SOME MIXED PRECIPITATION IN SPOTS.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE MUCH ABOVE NORMAL TUESDAY...GENERALLY THE
LOWER FIFTIES TO LOWER SIXTIES...THEN REMAIN ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH
THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD. WEDNESDAY WILL BE COOLER DAYS...WITH
HIGHS MAINLY IN THE FORTIES.

&&

.AVIATION...18Z TAFS..

MVFR CEILINGS REMAIN ALONG THE INTERNATIONAL BORDER...AND OVER
UPPER MICHIGAN. THE CLOUDS WILL CONTINUE TO DIMINISH THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON WITH VFR CONDITIONS FORECAST FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE
PERIOD. NORTHERLY WINDS WILL VEER TO EASTERLY TONIGHT. THE NAM
SUGGESTS SOME MVFR CEILINGS WILL RETURN LATE TONIGHT AT
KDLH/KHIB...BUT WE SEE LITTLE EVIDENCE FOR THAT AT THIS TIME. IF
THE CLOUDS REMAIN OVER C-E LAKE SUPERIOR THROUGH THE
EVENING...IT'S POSSIBLE THEY MAY ADVECT ACROSS THE LAKE...BUT WE
HAVE LOW CONFIDENCE IN THAT OCCURRING.
