AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MARQUETTE MI
949 AM EDT WED APR 18 2012

.UPDATE...
ISSUED AT 939 AM EDT WED APR 18 2012

PRECIPITATION SHIELD ASSOCIATED WITH IMPRESSIVE REGION OF
ISENTROPIC ASCENT...H85-H7 FGEN AND A WEAKLY COUPLED JET STRUCTURE
ALOFT IS PUSHING THROUGH THE EASTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA
THIS MORNING...WITH MORE SHOWERS HANGING BACK TOWARDS THE SURFACE
LOW CENTER/MID LEVEL SHORTWAVE. PRECIPITATION EVOLUTION AND
TEMPERATURES /AND ANY AFTERNOON THUNDER POTENTIAL/ ARE THE PRIMARY
CONCERNS THROUGH TODAY.

RUC PROFILES AND SURFACE TEMPERATURES SUGGEST A LITTLE FREEZING
RAIN /AND PERHAPS EVEN SOME SN/ AT PRECIP ONSET...WITH A FEW OBS
FROM MQT EAST /INCLUDING AT THE WFO/ BEARING THIS OUT. WEBCAMS
SHOWING WET ROADS...AND WITH SLOWLY WARMING BOUNDARY LAYER
TEMPS...PRECIPITATION SHOULD PRETTY QUICKLY TRANSITION TO A COLD
RAIN. HAVE ALL LIQUID PRECIP IN THE GRIDS BY LATE MORNING.

OUTSIDE OF PRECIPITATION TRENDS...PRIMARY TWEAKS THROUGH THE DAY
WERE TO LOWER TEMPS SOMEWHAT BASED ON RECENT LAV GUIDANCE...AND
CLOUD TRENDS SUGGESTING THAT WARMING WILL HAVE TO COME PRETTY MUCH
PURELY FROM ADVECTION.

SOME WEAK INSTABILITY WILL MAKE A RUN AT MY FAR SOUTHERN ZONES
DURING THE AFTERNOON...SO WILL MAINTAIN CHANCE MENTION OF THUNDER
IN THESE AREAS...BUT SEVERE WEATHER NOT EXPECTED GIVEN VERY PALTRY
INSTABILITY VALUES.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 543 AM EDT WED APR 18 2012

MAIN FCST CONCERNS DURING THIS TIME ARE PCPN AND TS CHCS AS WELL AS
POTENTIAL FOR ANY FZRA AT THE LEADING EDGE OF PCPN ASSOCIATED WITH
APRCHG SHRTWV/WARM FNT.

EARLY THIS MRNG...00Z NAM IS IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH RECENT GUIDANCE
SHOWING INCOMING SHRTWV MOVING TO SCNTRL MN AND SFC LO MOVING NEAR
DLH BY 12Z WED. MODELS ALSO IN GOOD AGREEMENT INDICATING SW H85
WINDS WL INCRS SHARPLY OVERNGT TO 50-60KTS IN THE WARM SECTOR. SO
ALTHOUGH MSTR RETURN HAS BEEN MARGINAL SO FAR...EXPECT INCRSG
ISENTROPIC ASCENT TO RESULT IN EXPANDING SHRA COVERAGE INTO THE W
HALF OF UPR MI EARLY THIS MRNG TO THE N OF WARM FNT AND AT NOSE OF
SHARPENING H85 LLJ. THE ASSOCIATED H85-7 FGEN IS ALSO FCST TO
INTENSIFY UPR JET MAX MOVING FM NRN MN INTO SRN ONTARIO...RESULTING
IN ENHANCED UPR DVGC WITH HINT OF UPR JET COUPLING. ALTHOUGH INCRSG
SSE FLOW AND CLD COVER WL TEND TO LIMIT ADDITIONAL TEMP FALL
ESPECIALLY OVER THE W WHERE THE ACCOMPANYING RA WL ARRIVE
EARLIEST...CONCERNED LINGERING DRY AIR NEAR THE SFC WITH WBLB TEMP
NEAR 32 MIGHT RESULT IN SOME FZRA AT THE LEADING EDGE OF RA SHIELD
IN THE CENTRAL...WHERE TEMPS HAVE ALREADY DIPPED INTO THE UPR 20S
AND SFCS MIGHT REMAIN SUB FREEZING IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY DIURNAL
HEATING. WILL ISSUE SPS TO HIGHLIGHT THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME LGT
ICING BEFORE TEMPS RISE QUICKLY ABV 32 AFT 12Z WITH INCRSG SLY
FLOW/WARMING. SINCE THERE HAVE BEEN SOME LTG STRIKES
UPSTREAM...OPTED TO ADD MENTION OF SCHC TS DESPITE MARGINAL
INSTABILITY...ESPECIALLY SINCE DYNAMICS WL BE INCRSG WITH TIME.

TODAY...SINCE SHRTWV WL REMAIN PROGRESSIVE WITHIN THE ZONAL FLOW
ALF...EXPECT THE HIER POPS TO OVERSPREAD THE E THIS MRNG BUT THEN
END W-E IN THE AFTN WITH ARRIVAL OF DNVA/LARGER SCALE QVECTOR DVGC/
DRYING. PREFER TO FOLLOW THE DEEPER 00Z GFS MODEL...WHICH SHOWS SFC
LO TRACKING A BIT FARTHER N WITH AXIS OF HEAVIER PCPN FARTHER N AS
WELL GIVEN INTENSITY OF INCOMING SHRTWV. MODELS HAVE BACKED OFF ON
LINGERING INSTABILITY FOLLOWING EXIT OF DEEPER MSTR WITH FCST SDNGS
SUPPORTING MORE LINGERING LO CLDS UNDER THE STRENGTHENING MID LVL
INVRN...SO OPTED TO REMOVE ANY MENTION OF TS AWAY FM THE MAIN PCPN
BAND EVEN THOUGH SOME -SHRA/SPRINKLES MAY LINGER IN THE LO CLD MASS.

TONIGHT...EXPECT DRY WX TO PREVAIL TNGT WITH WEAKENING SHRTWV RDG/
VERY DRY AIRMASS ALF MOVING INTO THE UPR GRT LKS WITH HI PRES BLDG
INTO ONTARIO. MAIN CONCERN IS HOW MUCH LO CLD WL LINGER WITHIN
INCOMING H85 THERMAL TROF/GREATER LLVL MSTR. ALTHOUGH THE LLVL FLOW
IS FCST TO TREND MORE ACYC/DIFFLUENT WITH THE SFC HI PRES
RDG...GFS/NAM FCST SDNGS SUG SOME SC WL LINGER OVER MAINLY THE AREAS
NEAR LK SUP THAT EXPERIENCE UPSLOPE NLY FLOW ON THE SRN FLANK OF THE
HI IN ONTARIO UNDER SUBSIDENCE INVRN.

THU/THU NGT...MAIN CHALLENGE DURING THIS TIME WILL BE DETERMINING
INTERACTION BTWN SHRTWV NOW MOVING TOWARD THE PAC NW AND FRONTAL ZN
THAT WL BE SINKING INTO THE LOWER GREAT LKS IN THE WAKE OF
DISTURBANCE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PCPN TODAY. ALTHOUGH MODELS REMAIN
IN GOOD AGREEMENT THE HEAVIER PCPN WL REMAIN TO THE S CLOSER TO THE
FNT...THERE IS MORE DISAGREEMENT ON DEFINING THE NRN EDGE OF THE
PCPN SHIELD AND TIMING OF THE ARRIVAL OF THE PCPN. WITH HUDSON BAY
HI PRES/SHARP GRADIENT OF MSTR ACRS THE CWA...THIS FCST WL BE A
TRICKY ONE FOR SURE. PER NCEP GUIDANCE...FOLLOWED THE 00Z CNDN/
UKMET/ECMWF FCSTS MOST CLOSELY. THESE MODELS SHOW SOME FAIRLY HEAVY
PCPN...0.25 INCH OR MORE...FALLING OVER THE SE ZNS MAINLY FM LATER
THU AFTN THRU THU NGT. THESE MODELS HINT UPR DVGC ASSOCIATED WITH H3
JET MAX EXTENDING FM THE UPR LKS INTO ONTARIO AND AXIS OF SHARPER
H5-7 FGEN WILL BE THE MAIN FORCING MECHANISMS. SUSPECT OMEGA WL BE
FOCUSED FAIRLY HI ABV DRIER AIR ARND H85 MAINTAINED BY NE FLOW OUT
OF THE HUDSON BAY HI. ALSO BELIEVE THESE MODELS ARE TOO BROAD
BRUSHED WITH HIER QPF FARTHER N INTO THE LLVL DRY AIR AS THESE
SITUATIONS USUALLY FEATURE A SHARP NRN EDGE TO THE PCPN. SO
SHARPENED NRN EDGE OF POPS/PCPN MORE THAN SHOWN BY EXPLICIT
ECMWF/CNDN...USING THE 00Z CNDN H7-5 FGEN MAX TO DEFINE MORE CLOSELY
A SHARPER NRN EDGE OF THE HIER POPS AND QPF. SO KEPT THE KEWEENAW
DRY THRU THIS TIME...WITH A RIBBON OF LO CHC POPS BTWN THE KEWEENAW
AND THE HIER POPS OVER THE SE. TEMPS APPEAR MARGINAL FOR
ACCUMULATING SN...BUT EVAPORATIVE COOLING ASSOCIATED WITH THE LLVL
DRY AIR MAY PRESENT SOME SURPRISES...MAINLY THU NGT WITH ABSENCE OF
ANY DIURNAL HEATING.

.LONG TERM...(FRI THROUGH TUESDAY)
ISSUED AT 543 AM EDT WED APR 18 2012

FIRST ISSUE IN THE LONG TERM DEALS WITH SHORTWAVES TRACKING THRU SE
CANADA IN THE NRN STREAM AND THE CNTRL CONUS IN THE SRN STREAM.
COMBINATION OF SE CANADA SHORTWAVE AND RIDGING OVER THE ERN CONUS
AHEAD OF THE CNTRL CONUS SHORTWAVE LEADS TO CONFLUENCE ZONE/UPPER JET
EXTENDING FROM THE UPPER LAKES TO QUEBEC. PLACEMENT OF THE UPPER JET
IS CRITICAL AS RIGHT ENTRANCE OF JET WILL BE A MAJOR PLAYER IN
FORCING PCPN THAT ARRIVES IN THE GREAT LAKES THU NIGHT. THE
ECMWF/UKMET ARE FARTHER N WITH UPPER JET...RESULTING IN PCPN
CONTINUING OVER ROUGHLY THE SE HALF OF THE FCST AREA THRU AT LEAST
THE EARLY PART OF FRI. THE GFS IS FARTHER S WITH DRY WEATHER
DOMINATING FRI. THE LAST 4 GFS AND ECMWF RUNS HAVE SHOWN GOOD RUN-TO-
RUN CONTINUITY THOUGH THE ECMWF HAS SHOWN JUST A SLIGHT SOUTHWARD
TREND. AT THIS POINT...PLAN TO LEAN MORE TOWARD THE ECMWF/UKMET
SCENARIO DUE TO THE USUALLY BETTER PERFORMANCE OF THE ECWMF AND PER
NCEP/SHORT TERM PREFERENCE. WILL THUS INCLUDE MENTION OF PCPN MAINLY
FRI MORNING FROM ROUGHLY KMQT TO IRON RIVER EASTWARD. POPS WERE KEPT
IN THE CHC CATEGORY...EXCEPT LIKELY OVER THE FAR SCNTRL/SE TOWARD
LAKE MICHIGAN. 850MB TEMPS AND 1000-850MB THICKNESS SUPPORT MOSTLY
SNOW FOR PTYPE. MAY SEE SOME WET/SLUSHY SNOW ACCUMULATIONS UNDER AN
INCH...BUT WOULDN'T TAKE MUCH OF A N SHIFT IN THE SYSTEM TO BRING
HEAVIER PCPN INTO UPPER MICHIGAN FRI MORNING. WILL BE SOMETHING TO
MONITOR.

IN THE WAKE OF THE NRN STREAM SHORTWAVE...SFC HIGH PRES WILL BUILD
INTO THE AREA...BRINGING DRY/COOL CONDITIONS FOR FRI NIGHT/SAT.
THEREAFTER...A BUILDING WRN CONUS RIDGE IS WELL AGREED UPON BY
MEDIUM RANGE GUIDANCE. THIS WILL RESULT IN A SHORTWAVE DIGGING SE
THRU THE UPPER GREAT LAKES SUN WITH SOME LIGHT PCPN POSSIBLE...MAINLY
OVER THE W HALF. PCPN SHOULD BE IN THE FORM OF RAIN...BUT AIRMASS IS
NEARLY COLD ENOUGH FOR MIXED PTYPE ISSUES.

DRY WEATHER SHOULD RETURN FOR MON AS APPROACHING MIDLEVEL RIDGE
SENDS SFC RIDGE INTO THE WRN GREAT LAKES. PLENTY OF UNCERTAINTY
EXISTS HEADING INTO THE MIDWEEK PERIOD. SHORTWAVE THAT DIVES THRU
THE AREA SUN WILL PHASE WITH A SHORTWAVE OVER THE SE STATES TO
GENERATE A MIDLEVEL LOW. STRENGTH OF SYSTEM AND HOW CUTOFF FROM THE
MAIN FLOW IT BECOMES WILL AFFECT THE TRACK OF THE NEXT SHORTWAVE
TOWARD THE UPPER LAKES. MODELS WON'T HAVE A GOOD HANDLE ON THIS
SCENARIO FOR A WHILE. SO FOR NOW...SIMPLE CONSENSUS APPROACH BRINGS

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z THURSDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 737 AM EDT WED APR 18 2012

EXPECT CONDITIONS TO DROP TO MVFR AT ALL 3 SITES THIS MRNG AS AREA
OF RA ASSOCIATED WITH LO PRES MOVING THRU MN DOMINATES. WITH UPSLOPE
SSE WIND AND UPSTREAM OBS SHOWING IFR CIGS AT LOCATIONS WITH
FAVORABLE TERRAIN...IFR CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE AT SAW FOR A TIME
LATER THIS MRNG. LLWS WL ALSO PREVAIL AT ALL 3 SITES IN ADVANCE OF
ATTENDANT WARM FNT/UNDER SW LLJ ABV WARM FRONTAL INVRN. AS THE LO
CONTINUES NE INTO LK SUP BY THIS AFTN...THE LLWS WL END SW TO NE AS
THE GRADIENT FLOW DIMINISHES. BUT GUSTY W WINDS WL DEVELOP OVER
ESPECIALLY THE MORE EXPOSED W AS COOLER AIR RETURNS IN THE WAKE OF
THE DEPARTING LO. UPSLOPE NATURE OF THIS FLOW AT IWD/CMX WL LIKELY
RESULT IN MORE PERSISTENT MVFR CIGS AT THOSE LOCATIONS WHILE VFR

...SOME LIGHT FREEZING RAIN POSSIBLE THIS MORNING...

AN AREA OF RAIN MOVING NORTHEAST THROUGH WISCONSIN WILL OVERSPREAD
UPPER MICHIGAN BY LATE MORNING. SINCE TEMPERATURES OVER INTERIOR
CENTRAL UPPER MICHIGAN ARE BELOW FREEZING EARLY THIS MORNING...THERE
IS A CHANCE THE RAIN MAY FREEZE ON COLDER SURFACES NEAR THE ONSET OF
THE PRECIPITATION. ANY ICING SHOULD BE LIGHT BECAUSE STEADY SOUTHWEST
WINDS ARE ALSO DRAGGING WARMER AIR INTO THE AREA. THE ARRIVAL OF THIS
WARMER AIR WILL LIMIT THE DURATION OF ANY FREEZING RAIN THAT MIGHT
OCCUR.

IF YOU MUST TRAVEL EARLY THIS MORNING AND ENCOUNTER RAIN...USE EXTRA
CAUTION IN CASE SURFACE TEMPERATURES ARE STILL BELOW FREEZING AND
THERE IS SOME LIGHT ICING.
