  THURSDAY WITH THE LARGEST WAVES EXPECTED AROUND 11 AM EDT 
  THURSDAY.

PLEASE SEE THE LATEST MARINE FORECASTS FOR MORE DETAILED
INFORMATION.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY MEANS THAT WIND SPEEDS OF 22 TO 33 KNOTS
ARE EXPECTED TO PRODUCE HAZARDOUS WAVE CONDITIONS TO SMALL CRAFT.
INEXPERIENCED MARINERS...ESPECIALLY THOSE OPERATING SMALLER

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MARQUETTE MI
741 PM EDT WED APR 25 2012

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 414 PM EDT WED APR 25 2012

SEVERAL EMBEDDED SHORTWAVES HAVE BEEN MOVING THROUGH THE NW FLOW
ACROSS THE UPPER MISS VALLEY AND UPPER GREAT LKS TODAY. WHEN THESE
WAVES HAVE INTERACTED WITH THE H925-700 WAA UNDER WEAK SW FLOW...AS
SEEN ON RUC ANALYSIS...THEY HAVE PRODUCED AREAS OF LIGHT RAIN
SHOWERS OVER NE MN...NW WI AND ALONG THE WI/MI BORDER. WITH THE
LLVL DRY AIR IN PLACE OVER MUCH OF UPPER MI AND LITTLE ESE MOVEMENT
OF THE SHOWERS...THEY HAVE STRUGGLED TO EFFECT THE AREA. ATTENTION
THEN TURNS FARTHER UPSTREAM IN SW ONTARIO WHERE ANOTHER SHORTWAVE
AND WEAK WAA HAS BEEN SLOWLY MOVING SE INTO WRN LK SUPERIOR. THIS
AREA OF MOISTURE/WAA WILL MERGE WITH SHORTWAVE DROPPING S JUST E OF
LK WINNIPEG AND MOVE ACROSS LAKE SUPERIOR TONIGHT. 06 AND 12Z MODEL
RUNS REALLY TRENDED THAT DIRECTION AND EARLIER UPDATE TO THE
FORECAST WENT WITH THIS IDEA.

THINK THESE SHOWERS WILL SLIDE INTO THE WRN PART OF UPPER MI THIS
EVENING AND TRY TO SPEED UP AS FRONTAL BOUNDARY ASSOCIATED WITH
THE SHORTWAVE PUSHES IT TO THE SE. AS THIS SLIDES ESE ACROSS THE
AREA...IT WILL BE INTERACTING WITH THE LINGERING DRY LLVL AIR.
MODELS CONSISTENT ON THIS PCPN DIMINISHING SOME AS IT HITS THE DRIER
AIR...SO HAVE THE LIKELY POPS OVER THE WRN HALF OF THE CWA AN
DIMINISHED TO CHANCES AS IT MOVES INTO THE DRIER AIR. AFTER THE
INITIAL PCPN SLIDES THROUGH...COULD HAVE A SECONDARY AREA ASSOCIATED
WITH THE SFC-H850 FRONT MOVING THROUGH AFTER 6Z. FORCING ALONG THE
FRONT...ALONG WITH THE STRONG SHORTWAVE...SHOULD LEAD TO ANOTHER
BAND OF RAIN...POTENTIALLY MIXING WITH OR CHANGING TO SNOW
AFFECTING THE NRN HALF OF THE CWA. SOME OF THESE SHOWERS WILL BE
ENHANCED IN THE UPSLOPE N FLOW AREAS...WHICH IF IT CHANGES TO ALL
SNOW...COULD PRODUCE A LIGHT DUSTING OF SNOW OVER THE WEST AND
NCNTRL. EXPECT WINDS TO QUICKLY PICKUP ALONG THIS FRONT AND GUST TO
25-30KTS NEAR LK SUPERIOR LATE TONIGHT AND INTO THURS MORNING.
CONSIDERED PUTTING UP A GALE FOR THE ERN HALF OF LK
SUPERIOR...AS WINDS RIGHT ALONG THE FRONT WILL GUST TO 35 AND
POTENTIALLY 40KTS...BUT SHOULD ONLY BE FOR A BRIEF 1-2HR WINDOW
BEFORE DIMINISHING BACK BELOW 35KTS.

AS THE FRONT QUICKLY MOVES THROUGH...H850 TEMPS AROUND -9C WILL
PROVIDE ENOUGH DELTA-T FOR CLOUDS AS LONG AS MOISTURE REMAINS.
SHOULD BE ENOUGH LLVL MOISTURE...AROUND H925-850...TO SUSTAIN
CLOUDS NEAR LK SUPERIOR FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE MORNING OVER THE
WEST AND INTO THE AFTN OVER THE EAST. DID LEAVE SOME LINGERING
-SHSN FOR UPSLOPE LOCATIONS NEAR LK SUPERIOR OVER THE NCNTRL AND
EAST...BUT SHOULD DIMINISH FAIRLY QUICKLY WITH THE DRY AIR AND
SUBSIDENCE FROM HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE MOVING OVER WRN LK SUPERIOR. IT
WILL FEEL MUCH COOLER THAN TODAY OVER MUCH OF THE AREA...BUT
ESPECIALLY OVER THE N HALF...AS THE COLD AIR AND WINDS OFF LK
SUPERIOR WILL MAKE IT FEEL MUCH COLDER THAT THE LOW-MID 40S HIGHS.
IN ADDITION...WITH THE DRY AIR ALOFT AND MIXING WITH THE WINDS WILL
LEAD TO FALLING DEWPOINTS FROM WEST TO EAST. RH FALLING TO 25-30
PERCENT OVER THE WEST...BUT FORTUNATELY THE WINDS WILL BE
DIMINISHING AND COOLER TEMPS WILL LIMIT FIRE WX CONCERN.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 414 PM EDT WED APR 25 2012

DRY CONDITIONS MAIN THEME OF LONG TERM. VERY LIMITED OPPORTUNITIES
FOR RAINFALL IS IN THE FCST THROUGH MONDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE REGINS
OVR THE REGION. INITIALLY WINDS WILL BE OUT OF THE NORTH OR
NORTHEAST AS THE HIGH CENTER SETTLES FM NORTHERN MANITOBA AND
NINAVUT CANADA ACROSS MUCH OF THE EASTERN CONUS BY EARLY NEXT WEEK.
HIGH IS FCST TO PUSH TOWARD EAST CONUS COAST BY TUESDAY ALLOWING
SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST RETURN FLOW TO FORM FM THE PLAINS INTO THE
WESTERN GREAT LAKES. MOISTURE RETURN INTO GREAT LAKES IS MINIMAL
AND DESPITE APPROACH OF A SFC-H85 TROUGH BELIEVE CHANCES OF ANY
PRECIPITATION ARE PRETTY SMALL. CONSENSUS OF AVAILABLE MODELS
GIVES LOW CHANCE POPS TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY AS THE TROUGH WORKS
THROUGH.

LARGE TROUGH RESIDING OVER MUCH OF EASTERN CANADA AND NORTHEAST
CONUS WILL KEEP TEMPS GENERALLY AT OR BLO NORMAL THROUGH MUCH OF THE
PERIOD...ESPECIALLY NEAR LK SUPERIOR WITH PERSISTENT ONSHORE FLOW.
NEAR NORMAL OR POSSIBLY SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS MAY OCCUR OVR
INTERIOR CNTRL TOWARD WI BORDER AS DEEP MIXING OFFSETS NORTHERLY
WINDS. PRIME ISSUE THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD REALLY IS DWPNTS/RH
VALUES WITH THE DRY HIGH DOMINATING. CORE OF DRIEST AIR IS OVER THE
AREA THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY. LOWERED DWPNTS MORE TOWARD MIXED
LAYER DWPNT TOOL OUTPUT FOR AFTN HOURS ON FRIDAY...SATURDAY...AND
SUNDAY. SIMILAR TO EARLIER THIS WEEK...GIVEN EXTENT OF DRY AIRMASS
OVERHEAD /PWATS 10-20 PCT OF NORMAL/...WOULD NOT BE SHOCKED AT ALL
TO SEE AFTN DWPNTS NEAR 0F AND RH VALUES WELL BLO 20 PCT. NNW
GRADIENT WINDS STRONGEST ON FRIDAY AFTN OVR EAST HALF...SO THAT IS
PROBABLY WHEN FIRE WX ISSUES WOULD BE MAXIMIZED. OTHERWISE...THROUGH
THE WEEKEND...WINDS BECOME PRETTY LIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE AXIS
IS OVERHEAD.

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 00Z TAFS THROUGH 00Z THURSDAY EVENING)
ISSUED AT 740 PM EDT WED APR 25 2012

PER SATELLITE AND RADAR IMAGERY...VIGOROUS DISTURBANCE DROPPING SE
THRU NRN ONTARIO TOWARD LAKE SUPERIOR WILL BRING -SHRA TO
KIWD/KCMX/KSAW TONIGHT. BASED ON UPSTREAM OBS...EXPECT CIGS TO DROP
TO MVFR SOON AFTER THE -SHRA BEGIN. VIS SHOULD GENERALLY REMAIN VFR
AS PCPN WILL MOSTLY BE LIGHT. ONCE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT PASSES AND
WINDS SHIFT NORTHERLY/INCREASE...NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION THAT A
PERIOD OF IFR CIGS COULD OCCUR OVERNIGHT...ESPECIALLY AT KIWD/KSAW
SINCE WINDS AT THOSE SITES WILL HAVE A MORE DIRECT UPSLOPE
COMPONENT. -SHRA WILL MIX WITH OR CHANGE TO -SHSN LATE IN THE NIGHT
AS COLDER AIR SURGES INTO THE AREA...BUT PCPN WILL END EARLY TO MID
MORNING AS CLOUD DECK THINS UNDER ADVECTION OF DRIER AIR. CLOUDS
SHOULD SCATTER OUT OR CLEAR AT KIWD/KCMX BY LATE MORNING...BUT NOT
UNTIL EARLY AFTN AT KSAW. IN ADDITION...EXPECT GUSTY WINDS BEHIND
FRONT OVERNIGHT THRU AT LEAST MID AFTN THU AS LOW-LEVELS WILL BE
UNSTABLE...RESULTING IN EFFICIENT MIXING. GUSTS TO 25-30KT WILL BE
COMMON AT KCMX/KSAW...ESPECIALLY AT KSAW.

.MARINE...(FOR THE 4 PM LAKE SUPERIOR FORECAST ISSUANCE)
ISSUED AT 414 PM EDT WED APR 25 2012

LOW PRESSURE OVER IOWA WILL SLIDE SE TONIGHT AND DRAG A SFC
TROUGH SE ACROSS LAKE SUPERIOR. STRONG CANADIAN HIGH TRIES TO
PUSH IN BEHIND IT AND WILL LEAD TO GUSTY NNW WINDS LATE TONIGHT
INTO THURS MORNING. EXPECT A FEW GALE FORCE GUSTS TO 35KTS OVER
CNTRL/ERN LK SUPERIOR WITH THIS STRONG GRADIENT. CONSIDERED PUTTING
UP A GALE FOR A COUPLE HOUR PERIOD AS THIS BOUNDARY MOVES ACROSS LK
SUPERIOR...BUT WITH THE SHORT TIME PERIOD...OPTED TO MENTION THE
GUSTS AT THIS TIME. THE CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL THEN MOVE
OVER THE UPPER GREAT LKS BY THURS NIGHT DIMINISHING THE WINDS BELOW
20KTS. THIS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MONDAY...AS THE HIGH MOVES
SOUTHEAST ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES REGION.
