AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DETROIT/PONTIAC MI
700 AM EDT TUE OCT 30 2012

.AVIATION...

//DISCUSSION...

THE RAPID WEAKENING OF THE REMNANTS OF SANDY WILL LEAD TO A SLOW BUT
STEADY DECREASE IN WIND SPEEDS TODAY. WIND GUSTS WILL CONTINUE TO
TOP 30 KNOTS AT TIMES THIS MORNING...THEN FALL BELOW 25 KNOTS BY
LATE AFTERNOON. MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT INTO SE MI FROM THE
EAST TODAY AND TONIGHT. THE LATEST MODEL SOUNDINGS ALONG WITH AREA
OBSERVATIONS SUGGEST PRIMARILY MVFR TYPE CEILINGS INTO EARLY
AFTERNOON...THEN DROPPING TO IFR AFTER 20Z.

FOR DTW...WIND GUSTS WILL LIKELY EXCEED CROSSWIND THRESHOLDS THROUGH
15Z BEFORE THE WIND SPEEDS SLOWLY DROP BACK OFF. WHILE SOME SNOW AND
SLEET MIXED IN WITH THE RAIN EARLIER THIS MORNING...PRECIP TYPE IS
EXPECTED TO BE ALL RAIN AFTER 12Z.

//DTW THRESHOLD THREATS...

* HIGH CONFIDENCE IN CEILINGS BELOW 5000 FEET THROUGH THE FORECAST
PERIOD.

* HIGH CONFIDENCE THAT WIND GUSTS WILL EXCEED CROSSWIND THRESHOLDS
THROUGH 15Z.

.PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED 342 AM EDT TUE OCT 30 2012

SHORT TERM...TODAY AND TONIGHT

THE 06Z SURFACE ANALYSIS SHOWS THE REMNANTS OF SANDY OVER SE
PENNSYLVANIA AT 965MB. THE LOW WILL CONTINUE TO RAPIDLY FILL AS IT
TRACKS WESTWARD ACROSS PA AS THE PROCESS TO AN EXTRA TROPICAL
OCCLUSION HAS RAPIDLY TAKEN HOLD. THE STRONGEST WINDS OVER SE MI
ACTUALLY OCCURRED LAST EVENING WHERE GUSTS PEAKED BETWEEN 40 AND 50
MPH /REFER TO THE LATEST PNSDTX FOR SPECIFICS/. AS EXPECTED...THE
STRONGEST GUSTS WERE ALONG THE LAKE HURON SHORELINE WHERE PEAK GUSTS
EXCEEDED 60 MPH. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE LAKE HURON
SHORELINE...WINDS ACROSS SE MI HAVE DROPPED OFF THE LAST COUPLE OF
HOURS. LOW LEVEL DRY AIR COMBINED WITH PRECIP ROLLING IN FROM THE
EAST HAS INCREASED STABILITY IN THE BOUNDARY LAYER. OBSERVATIONS
ALSO SUGGEST THE STORM SYSTEM MAY BE WEAKENING MORE QUICKLY THAN
MODEL SOLUTIONS SUGGEST. THIS ALONG WITH THE LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES
BECOMING INCREASINGLY MOIST ADIABATIC SUGGESTS A GRADUAL DIMINISHING
TREND IN THE WINDS TODAY. SINCE A FEW OBS ARE STILL SHOWING GUSTS
FLIRTING WITH 40 MPH...WILL CONTINUE THE WIND ADVISORY THROUGH THE
MORNING. OBSERVATIONS ALONG THE LAKE HURON SHORELINE ARE STILL
SHOWING GUSTS OVER 60 MPH. EVEN WITH THE SYSTEM RAPIDLY
WEAKENING...50 KNOTS SHOULD REMAIN WITHIN THE MIXED MARINE LAYER
ENVIRONMENT THROUGH ROUGHLY NOON. SO THE HIGH WIND WARNING FOR
HURON...SANILAC...ST CLAIR COUNTIES WILL BE EXTENDED TO NOON.

THE SATELLITE/RADAR COMPOSITE INDICATE ONGOING OCCLUSION DYNAMICS
ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. THE LOW LEVEL AIRMASS WAS ACTUALLY A LITTLE
DRIER THAN EXPECTED. SO WET BULB COOLING LED TO QUITE A BIT OF SNOW
AND SOME SLEET WITH THE LEAD BAND OF MID LEVEL FGEN WHICH ROLLED
THROUGH EARLY IN THE NIGHT. PRECIP WILL CONTINUE TO ADVANCE IN FROM
THE EAST WITHIN THE WELL DEVELOPED MID LEVEL TROWEL. IN LIGHT OF
CURRENT DEWPOINTS...THERE IS STILL LIKELY TO BE SOME SNOW AND SLEET
AT TIMES THIS MORNING BEFORE MOISTURE ADVECTION FROM THE EAST LIFTS
WET BULB ZERO HEIGHTS AND PRECIP TRANSITIONS TO ALL RAIN. THE STRONG
UPPER JET MAX NOW TO THE NORTH OF THE STATE WILL LIFT NORTH
TODAY...WHILE THE MID LEVEL TROWEL FEATURE SLOWLY FALLS APART.
THUS...PRECIP COVERAGE WILL TEND TO DIMINISH THROUGH THE DAY. WEAK
MID LEVEL IMPULSES ROTATING AROUND THE EASTERN US UPPER LOW AND
RESIDUAL DEEP LAYER MOISTURE/LOW LEVEL CYCLONIC FLOW WILL HOWEVER
SUSTAIN SCATTERED TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS THROUGH THE NIGHT. THE PRECIP
COOLED BOUNDARY LAYER WILL KEEPS TEMPS IN THE 30S/LOW 40S THROUGHOUT
TODAY AND TONIGHT DESPITE SOME WEAK WARM AIR ADVECTION NEAR 925MB.

LONG TERM...

THE UPPER LEVEL LOW/CENTER WILL BE OVER THE EASTERN GREAT
LAKES/UPSTATE NEW YORK ON WEDNESDAY..AND WILL CONTINUE TO SLOWLY
LIFT NORTH ON THURSDAY.

FAIRLY UNEVENTFUL WEATHER WEDNESDAY/THURSDAY WITH CLOUDY SKIES AND
SOME VERY LIGHT SHOWERS FROM TIME TO TIME. THERE COULD BE SOME
MARGINAL COLD AIR AROUND TO SUPPORT WET SNOW WEDNESDAY NIGHT FOR
HIGHER TERRAIN/WESTERN PART OF SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN...BUT THERE DOES
NOT APPEAR MUCH FORCING...WITH SOME DRIER AIR ACTUALLY WORKING ITS
WAY INTO SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN.

THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH/WAVE CURRENTLY MOVING THROUGH BRITISH
COLUMBIA WILL ARRIVE FOR THE END OF THE WORK WEEK...DELIVERING A
RENEWED SHOT OF COLD AIR. HOWEVER...THE 00Z EURO HAS BACKED OFF A
BIT FROM THE 12Z RUN...INDICATING MORE OF A GLANCING BLOW. PREVIOUS
RUN HAD 850 MB TEMPS FALLING TO -6 TO -7 C ON FRIDAY...NOW MORE
BETWEEN -4 TO -6 C. IF WE ARE ABLE TO GENERATE LAKE ACTIVITY...OR
DIURNAL ENHANCE ACTIVITY...SNOW SHOWERS WOULD BE POSSIBLE. OVERALL
CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION ARE VERY LOW HOWEVER...AS THE FLOW IS
MOSTLY NEUTRAL NORTHWEST. AT THE VERY LEAST...WOULD EXPECT CU UP OF
CLOUDS (PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY) TO DEVELOP.

PER 00Z EURO AND BLENDED GRIDS...NEXT PACIFIC SYSTEM COMING OUT OF
THE NORTHERN PLAINS EXPECTED TO DIVE SOUTHEAST OF LOWER MICHIGAN
OVER THE WEEKEND...SUPPORTING A DRY AND SEASONABLY COOL WEEKEND.

MARINE...

MARINE OBSERVATIONS ACROSS THE SOUTHERN LAKE HURON BASIN HAVE BEEN
GUSTING OVER 50 KNOTS SINCE LAST EVENING. OBSERVATIONS CONTINUE TO
SUPPORT THE STORM WARNING ON LAKE HURON SOUTH OF PRESQUE ISLE WITH
GALE WARNINGS ACROSS THE REST OF THE MARINE WATERS. THE 05Z OB ON
THE CANADIAN SOUTHERN LAKE HURON BUOY ACTUALLY HAD WAVE HEIGHTS TO
23 FEET. WHILE STORM AND GALE FORCE WINDS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE
MORNING...THE RAPID WEAKENING OF THE REMNANTS OF SANDY WILL LEAD TO
A STEADY DIMINISHING OF THE WINDS AND WAVES THIS AFTERNOON THROUGH
TONIGHT. EXPECT GALES AND STORMS TO BE DROPPED DURING THE AFTERNOON
AND EVENING. WINDS WILL NOT DIMINISH COMPLETELY HOWEVER AS A
NORTHWESTERLY GRADIENT WILL PERSIST THROUGH FRIDAY...WITH GUSTS
POSSIBLY REACHING 30 KNOTS AT TIMES OVER THE OPEN WATERS.
