AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND RAPIDS MI
355 PM EDT WED OCT 10 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 355 PM EDT WED OCT 10 2012

LAKE EFFECT RAIN SHOWERS WHICH MIXED AT TIMES WITH SOME HAIL AND
SNOW WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING DUE TO THE COLD AIR ALOFT
SHOULD END AROUND SUNSET. SKIES WILL TRY TO BECOME PARTLY CLOUDY
OVERNIGHT WHICH WILL ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO DIP INTO THE LOW TO MID
30S. A CLIPPER SYSTEM WILL MOVE THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES REGION ON
THURSDAY BRINGING WITH IT WINDY CONDITIONS AND A FEW SHOWERS. THE
SHOWERS WILL BE FOCUSED ACROSS CENTRAL AND NORTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN.
THE NEXT WEATHER MAKER FOR THE AREA WILL BE A STRONG LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM THAT WILL SWEEP NORTHEAST THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES OVER THE
WEEKEND. THE WEEKEND SYSTEM WILL BRING THE POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY
RAINS...THUNDERSTORMS AND WINDY CONDITIONS.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 355 PM EDT WED OCT 10 2012

THE SHORT TERM PERIOD WILL MAINLY BE A DRY OUTSIDE OF SOME SCATTERED
LAKE EFFECT SHOWERS ENDING THIS EVENING AND THE CHANCE FOR A FEW
SHOWERS ON THURSDAY.

PLENTY OF INSTABILITY STILL IN PLACE OVER THE LAKE WITH DELTA T/S UP
AROUND 20C. JUST ENOUGH MOISTURE IS IN PLACE TO WORK WITH THE
INSTABILITY TO PRODUCE SHOWERS OFF THE LAKE. REPORTS CONTINUE TO
STREAM IN OF SOME VERY SMALL HAIL OCCURRING IN THE DEEPER CONVECTIVE
SHOWERS AND EVEN A LITTLE LIGHT SNOW AT TIMES. THE MIX OF
PRECIPITATION WILL END THIS EVENING AS THE DEEPER MOISTURE AND
CYCLONIC FLOW PULL AWAY TO THE EAST. WOULD EXPECT THE BULK OF THE
ACTIVITY TO BE OVER BY 00Z.

COORDINATED WITH DTX ON FROST POTENTIAL. THINKING THE CLOUDS AND
WINDS MAY MITIGATE THE THREAT TONIGHT. THE CLOUD FORECAST ESPECIALLY
IS PROBLEMATIC AS DELTA T/S WILL BE CONDUCIVE FOR CLOUDS ALL THE WAY
THROUGH THE NIGHT. GIVEN THE CLOUD AND WIND ISSUES (GRADIENT
BUILDING IN OVERNIGHT) OPTED FOR NO HEADLINE AND RAN WITH LOWS JUST
ABOVE FREEZING INLAND FROM THE LAKE.

CLIPPER SYSTEM WILL SHIFT THROUGH THE AREA ON THURSDAY BRINGING
SMALL CHANCES FOR RAIN SHOWERS. HAVE 20/30 POPS IN THE FORECAST FROM
FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH EVENING FROM NORTH TO SOUTH. MOISTURE DOES
POOL ALONG THE FRONT AND ALL THE MODELS ARE SQUEEZING OUT SMALL
AMOUNTS OF PRECIPITATION.

FRIDAY AND FRIDAY NIGHT LOOK DRY WITH HIGH PRESSURE DRIFTING ACROSS
THE GREAT LAKES. THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM.

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 355 PM EDT WED OCT 10 2012

MUCH OF THE WEEKEND LOOKS BREEZY AND POTENTIALLY STORMY. WE/RE
WATCHING A UPPER LOW OVER CALIFORNIA WHICH IS GENERATING CONVECTION
OVER CALIFORNIA THIS MORNING. AS THE LOW EJECTS FROM THE SOUTHWEST
AND MOVES OVER THE ROCKIES...A LEE SIDE LOW WILL DEVELOP AND
STRENGTHEN AS IT MOVES TOWARD THE GREAT LAKES. ECMWF/GFS HAVE BEEN
CONSISTENT IN LIFTING A WARM FRONT NWD SATURDAY AFTERNOON. THERE IS
A HELICITY BULLSEYE OVER THE CWA AROUND 18Z SATURDAY. HODOGRAPHS ARE
VERY LARGE. HOWEVER INSTABILITY IS NOT THAT IMPRESSIVE AND THE
STRONGEST INSTABILITY WILL STILL BE WEST OF THE CWA. MID DAY
SATURDAY THE LOW LOOKS TO BE OVER WRN IOWA WITH THE TRAILING COLD
FRONT SW OF THE LOW INTO ERN KANSAS. THUS THE SEVERE POTENTIAL
SHOULD BE WELL WEST OF THE CWA SATURDAY AFTERNOON. THAT IS IF WE
DON/T GET SUBSTANTIAL DEVELOPMENT ALONG THE WARM FRONT.

SHOWERS/STORMS WILL LIKELY MOVE OVER THE CWA SATURDAY EVENING/EARLY
SUNDAY AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT. A 70 KT LLJ IS STILL PROGD OVER THE
SRN CWA. ANY CONVECTION THAT CAN TAP INTO THAT WIND COULD
POTENTIALLY PRODUCE STRONG WINDS AT THE SFC. MOISTURE WON/T BE
LACKING AS PWATS WILL BE CLOSE TO 1.6 INCHES. PCPN WILL DIMINISH
LATER SUNDAY AS THE UPPER LOW MOVES BY.

ANOTHER UPPER TROUGH QUICKLY FOLLOWS MONDAY. MOISTURE WILL BE
LIMITED HOWEVER AND CHCS FOR PCPN WILL REMAIN LOW.

ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL MOVE TOWARD THE REGION LATE TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY. SOUTH FLOW AHEAD OF IT WILL ADVECT MOISTURE NWD AND SO
LIKELY POPS ARE IN THE GRIDS WEDNESDAY.

HIGHS WILL BE A BIT ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH THE PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z THURSDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 115 PM EDT WED OCT 10 2012

COLD AIR ALOFT IS RESULTING IN LAKE EFFECT RAIN SHOWERS ACROSS THE
AREA. THE BEST CHC OF SEEING SHOWERS AT A TAF SITE WILL BE AT
KLAN/KJXN. CLOUDS WILL SCATTER AFTER SUNSET THIS EVENING AND WINDS
WILL DIMINISH ALSO. HOWEVER...SW WINDS WILL RAMP UP THURSDAY
MORNING.

&&

.MARINE...
ISSUED AT 355 PM EDT WED OCT 10 2012

MAINTAINED THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY INTO TONIGHT AS THERE WILL BE A
LENGTH OF TIME...12 HOURS OR SO BEFORE WE HIT GALE. SO...SCA
CONDITIONS NOW THROUGH 4AM. HAVE HOISTED A GALE ON THE BACK END OF
THE SCA FROM 4AM TONIGHT THROUGH 6PM ON THURSDAY. A TIGHT PRESSURE
GRADIENT WILL PRODUCE 35 TO 40 KNOT GALES FOR A TIME LATE TONIGHT
INTO THURSDAY AFTERNOON. WAVES THURSDAY MORNING COULD PUSH 12 FEET
AGAIN NORTH OF GRAND HAVEN. WINDS AND WAVES WILL GRADUALLY COME DONE
THURSDAY NIGHT AND ESPECIALLY FRIDAY. WITH THE NEXT SYSTEM LOOMING
OVER THE WEEKEND THE FRIDAY RESPITE FROM WINDS AND WAVES WILL BE
SHORT LIVED.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 355 PM EDT WED OCT 10 2012

RAINFALL LAST NIGHT WAS GENERALLY A HALF INCH OR LESS IN MOST
AREAS...SO NO HYDRO ISSUES FROM THAT PRECIPITATION. RIVER GAGING
SITES REMAIN AT OR BELOW NORMAL ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA. THE NEXT
CHANCE OF RAIN WILL COME WITH A COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE THURSDAY
AFTERNOON/EVENING. RAINFALL WITH THIS SYSTEM WILL BE LESS THAN A
TENTH OF AN INCH UP NORTH WITH TRACE AMOUNTS SOUTH. REALLY THE HYDRO
FOCUS WILL BE ON THE STRONG FALL LOW TO SWEEP THROUGH THE REGION
OVER THE WEEKEND. RAINFALL AMOUNTS WITH THIS SYSTEM COULD RANGE FROM
ONE TO TWO INCHES.
