AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DETROIT/PONTIAC MI
754 PM EDT MON MAR 12 2012

.AVIATION...

//DISCUSSION...

AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ANCHORED WITHIN A ZONE OF WEAK BUT
SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY IMMEDIATELY AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT WILL SHIFT
ACROSS SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN THROUGH 06Z.  GIVEN THE ORIENTATION AND
EXTRAPOLATING THE UPSTREAM MOVEMENT EASTWARD BRINGS PRECIPITATION
INTO MBS/FNT TO BEGIN TO TAF...PTK 01-02Z...AND THE DETROIT CORRIDOR
03-04Z.  ENOUGH CONFIDENCE EXISTS PER LATEST RADAR TRENDS TO SUPPORT
A THUNDER MENTION AT MBS/FNT/PTK...BUT A LACK OF EVIDENCE THUS FAR
WILL PRECLUDE A SPECIFIC MENTION IN DTW. PRECIPITATION LINGERING
POST-FRONTAL MVFR CIGS OVERNIGHT WILL SCATTER BY MID MORNING.  WINDS
VEER TO WESTERLY IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT AND HOLD THROUGH TUESDAY.

//DTW THRESHOLD THREATS...

* HIGH CONFIDENCE IN CEILINGS BELOW 5000 FEET THROUGH 12Z.

* LOW CONFIDENCE IN THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE THIS EVENING.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED 351 PM EDT MON MAR 12 2012

SHORT TERM...THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT

STRONG UPPER LOW NOW LOCATED OVER NORTHERN WISCONSIN WILL CONTINUE
TO TRACK TO THE NE ACROSS LAKE SUPERIOR TONIGHT. THE SURFACE
REFLECTION IS RATHER WEAK AS IT REMAINS AN OPEN TROUGH TIED TO A
CLOSED CIRCULATION FURTHER NW OVER MANITOBA. MID LEVEL DRY SLOT IS
WORKING ITS WAY ACROSS SOUTHERN MI PUSHING THE DEEPER MOISTURE FROM
THIS MORNING OFF TO THE EAST. BREAKS IN THE CLOUD COVER HAS ALLOWED
SOME DIURNAL HEATING OVER FAR SW LOWER MI. TEMPS ARE PUSHING THE
UPPER 60S IN THOSE LOCATIONS. IN ADDITION...S/SW WINDS GUSTING UP TO
25 KNOTS HAS BROUGHT IN ABUNDANT SFC MOISTURE WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE
MID 50S ACROSS ALL OF SOUTHERN MI. THE EXCEPTION IS OVER THE EXTREME
EASTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA WHERE A SE COMPONENT IS STILL HANGING
ON. THIS HELD THE SUB 1000FT CLOUDS FIRMLY UNTIL ABOUT THE LAST WHEN
THEY STARTED TO SCATTER OUT. THUNDERSTORM COMPLEX FROM EARLIER WEST
OF CHICAGO HAS TRACKED NORTH INTO WESTERN MI NORTH OF MUSKEGON. WITH
WIND SHEAR NEARLY UNIDIRECTIONAL FROM THE SW...COMPLEX IS STRUGGLING
TO MAKE ANY EASTWARD PROGRESS.

FOR TONIGHT...THREAT FOR SEVERE WEATHER LATE THIS EVENING REMAINS
CONDITIONAL ON AMOUNT OF SURFACE BASED INSTABILITY WE CAN ACHIEVE.
THERE LOOKS TO BE PLENTY OF WIDESPREAD LIFT SUPPORTING STORM
DEVELOPMENT WITH THE UPPER LEVEL COLD POOL IN PLACE AND THE ENTRANCE
REGION OF A JET STREAK OVER THE REGION. THERE ARE FAVORABLE WIND
PARAMETERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE. BULK SHEAR VALUES
AROUND 40-50 KNOTS...BOTH 0-3KM AND 0-1 KN HELICITY IN EXCESS OF 300
M2/S2. LOOKING AT CAPE VALUES...THOUGH NAM MUCAPE IS ADVERTISED AT
800J/KG...NEITHER THE NAM OR RUC FIND MUCH IN THE WAY OF SFC BASED
CAPE WITH VALUES UP TO 100-200 J/KG WITH HIGHEST AMOUNTS FOR THE
WESTERN PART OF THE CWA. HIRES MODELS SHOW SOME ISOLATED CELLS
TRYING TO GO UP IN ADVANCE OF THE COLD FRONT WITH THE BULK OF THE
SHOWERS/STORMS OCCURRING THE FRONT ITSELF MAINLY FROM
23Z-05Z...WORKING SOUTH FROM MBS TO DTW. LOOKS LIKE SMALL HAIL AND
WIND GUSTS TO 50MPH WILL BE THE MOST LIKELY RESULTS OF THESE
STORMS...ALTHOUGH IF WE CAN GET MORE SFC BASED INSTABILITY SEVERE
STORMS WILL NOT BE OUT OF THE QUESTION.

LONG TERM...

THE WARM PATTERN LOOKS TO STICKING AROUND FOR THE EXTENDED
PERIOD...WITH POTENTIAL PSEUDO OMEGA BLOCKING PATTERN SETTING UP
LATE IN THE WEEKEND/EARLY NEXT WEEK.

CONSOLIDATING UPPER WAVES TAKES PLACE OVER ONTARIO TOMORROW...WITH
SHORTWAVE TROUGH AXIS AND SLIGHT HEIGHT FALLS TAKING PLACE LATE IN
THE DAY. STILL...WITH FAVORABLE WESTERLY WINDS AND THE TEMP GRADIENT
ADVERTISED (925 MB TEMPS OF 8 C NORTH TO 11 C SOUTH)...LOOKING AT
UPPER 50S NORTH TO MID 60S SOUTH WITH PLENTY OF SUNSHINE.

SURFACE RIDGE AXIS ARRIVING TOMORROW EVENING SHOULD ALLOW FOR
FAVORABLE RADIATING CONDITIONS...BUT WE ALREADY HAVE MODEST LOW
LEVEL WARM ADVECTION RETURNING BY SUNRISE WEDNESDAY. GUIDANCE TEMPS
IN THE 30S APPEAR REASONABLE.

A DRY WARM FRONT EXPECTED TO PUSH NORTH OF SOUTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN
DURING WEDNESDAY AS UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDS OVERHEAD...PUSHING
TEMPS TO 70 DEGREES OR BETTER BASED ON FORECASTED 925 MB TEMPS OF
+15 TO +16 C. THE EXCEPTION WILL BE ACROSS THUMB REGION WHERE FRONT
WILL PROBABLY NOT CLEAR BY DAYS END...WITH BACKED SOUTHEAST FLOW
COMING OFF COOL WATERS OF SOUTHERN LAKE HURON.

DEEP SOUTHWEST FLOW OVER THE CENTRAL CONUS THURSDAY/FRIDAY...WITH
POTENTIAL UPPER LEVEL PV FILAMENT ROLLING THROUGH ON THURSDAY...PER
12Z GFS...TO TRIGGER SHOWERS AND POSSIBLE THUNDERSTORMS...AS
RESPECTABLE SURGE IN MOISTURE TAKES PLACE. CLOUDS AND CONVECTIVE
ACTIVITY COULD BE ENOUGH TO KEEP TEMPS STUCK IN THE UPPER 60S
DESPITE THE VERY MILD START TO THE DAY. THE 12Z EUROPEAN OFFERS A
DIFFERENT SOLUTION AND SUGGESTS THE SHORTWAVE/TROUGH COMING OUT OF
THE NORTHERN PLAINS WILL BE STRONGER...MOVING THROUGH ON FRIDAY.
THIS WOULD TRANSLATE TO A WARM DAY ON THURSDAY (70S) AND BETTER
CHANCE OF SHOWERS ON FRIDAY. THE CANADIAN IS MORE IN LINE WITH THE
GFS...SO WILL NOT MAKE A BIG PUSH TO EXTENDED GRIDS MUCH.

MEDIUM RANGE MODELS STILL FORECASTING AMPLIFIED PATTERN FOR THE
WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...WITH LONGWAVE TROUGH OUT WEST AND
UPPER LEVEL RIDGE BUILDING NEAR THE GREAT LAKES REGION. ALMOST
SUMMER LIKE RIDGE (582-586 DAM AT 500 MB)...AND TEMPS APPROACHING 80
DEGREES IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION AS WE GET TO TUESDAY AS 1000-500
MB THICKNESSES CLIMB TOWARD 564 DAM. LAKE BREEZES WOULD LIKELY BE
COMING INTO PLAY HOWEVER AND WILL NEED TO REMAIN MORE CONSERVATIVE
THAT FAR OUT...ESPECIALLY WITH THE EUROPEAN PROFILES A BIT COOLER.

MARINE...

OUTSIDE OF A FEW POSSIBLE THUNDERSTORMS THIS EVENING...MARINE
CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN QUIET. UNUSUALLY MILD AIR IN PLACE
FOR EARLY MARCH WILL LEAD TO STABLE  STABLE LOW LEVEL PROFILES OVER
THE GREAT LAKES. THIS WILL MINIMIZE THE GUST POTENTIAL TO AROUND 20
KNOTS OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. THOSE STRONGER WINDS LOOKED TO BE
CONFINED TO THE NORTH THIRD OF LAKE HURON TOMORROW...AS CHANNELING
OCCURS WITH WESTERLY FLOW.  THE NEXT CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS RETURNS
ON THURSDAY.
