Area forecast discussion, Jul 9, 12:51 PM CDT, 2 hours 7 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MARQUETTE MI
151 PM EDT MON JUL 9 2012

.UPDATE...
HAVE UPDATED THE FCST A COUPLE OF TIMES THIS MORNING...TO INCREASE
POPS AND TS PROBABILITIES...ASSOICATED WITH THE SHORTWAVE THAT HAS
PROPIGATED ACROSS THE AREA FROM THE NW.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 507 AM EDT MON JUL 9 2012

WV IMAGERY AND RUC ANALYSIS INDICATED WNW MID/UPPER LEVEL FLOW
THROUGH THE NRN GREAT LAKES BTWN A RIDGE OVER WRN NOAM AND A TROUGH
FROM FROM ERN CANADA INTO THE NE CONUS. A WEAK UPSTREAM SHORTWAVE
TROUGH OVER NRN ONTARIO NEAR CYPL SUPPORTED AN AREA OF MID LEVEL
CLOUDS AND AN ISOLD TSRA BTWN CYPL/CYQT. AT THE SFC...WITH A RIDGE
EXTENDING FROM THE NRN PLAINS INTO THE UPPER GREAT LAKES...A VERY
WEAK GRADIENT PERSISTED OVER THE CWA. IR LOOP SHOWED PATCHY MID
CLOUDS INTO UPPER MI AND SOME STRATUS FROM ONTONAGON TO IWD THAT HAD
MOVED IN OFF OF WRN LAKE SUPERIOR.

TODAY...DAYTIME HEATING PUSHING TEMPS INTO THE MID TO UPPER 70S
RESULTING IN MLCAPE VALUES TO AROUND 400 J/KG. SIMILAR TO
SUNDAY...FCST SOUNDINGS (600-700 MB INVERSION AND DRY AIR ABOVE 700
MB) ARE LESS THAN FAVORABLE FOR TSTMS. HOWEVER...THE CYPL SHRTWV
COMBINED WITH LOW LEVEL CONV NEAR LAKE BREEZE BOUNDARIES SHOULD BE
ENOUGH TO SUPPORT ISOLD AFTERNOON SHRA/TSRA DEVELOPMENT OVER INLAND
CNTRL UPPER MI THAT COULD SPREAD TO THE SOUTHEAST. WITH WET-BULB
ZERO HEIGHTS ONLY AROUND 8K FT AND DCAPE VALUES NEAR 1K J/KG...SOME
SMALL HAIL AND GUSTY WINDS MAY BE POSSIBLE IF ANY TSRA DEVELOP.

TONIGHT...MODELS SUGGEST THAT ANOTHER WEAK SHRTWV WILL MOVE TOWARD
UPPER MI LATE TONIGHT. THE NAM WAS AN OUTLIER COMPARED TO OTHER
MODELS IN PRODUCING PCPN ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FEATURE...LEFT THE
FCST DRY FOR NOW. FAVORABLE RADIATIONAL COOLING WITH SLIGHTLY LOWER
DEWPOINTS INTO THE REGION SHOULD ALLOW TEMPS TO FALL INTO THE UPPER
40S TO AROUND 50 INLAND WITH READINGS IN THE UPPER 50S NEAR LAKE
SUPERIOR.

.LONG TERM...(TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 507 AM EDT MON JUL 9 2012

STARTING 12Z TUE...THERE WILL BE AN AMPLIFIED MID/UPPER LEVEL RIDGE
OVER THE W CONUS EXTENDING N THROUGH WRN CANADA. ALSO...THERE WILL
BE A MID/UPPER LEVEL TROUGH OVER E CANADA AND E CONUS...INCLUDING
OVER THE GREAT LAKES REGION. THIS PUTS THE CWA UNDER NW FLOW
ALOFT...AND THERE WILL BE THE USUAL EMBEDDED SHORTWAVES IN THIS FLOW
PATTERN. CLOSER TO THE SFC...THE MAIN AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE
TO THE SW OF THE CWA AT 12Z TUE...SO LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL GENERALLY
BE FROM THE NW. EXPECT THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN TO WEAKEN THROUGH THE
REST OF THE PERIOD AS THE UPPER JET FOCUSES WELL N OF THE CONUS. BY
THU...THE N PORTION OF THE UPPER RIDGE OVER THE W WILL HAVE MOVED
INTO CENTRAL CANADA AND FAR NCENTRAL CONUS /INCLUDING OVER THE CWA/.
ALSO DURING THIS TIME...THE SFC HIGH WILL HAVE MOVED SE OFF THE
CWA...BRINGING MORE SW LOW LEVEL FLOW. AN UPPER TROUGH LOOKS TO MOVE
INTO E/CENTRAL CANADA FRI THROUGH SUN...BRINGING INCREASED SLY FLOW
AS A SFC TROUGH PUSHES INTO THE NRN PLAINS.

THE PRECIP ASPECT OF THE FORECAST LOOKS PRETTY DRY. NO ORGANIZED OR
WIDESPREAD PRECIP IS EXPECTED TUE THROUGH SUN...BUT THERE IS
POTENTIAL FOR AFTERNOON/EVENING SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TUE
THROUGH THU INLAND IF ANY SHORTWAVES MOVE THROUGH DURING THE HEAT OF
THE DAY. WILL CONTINUE FORECAST OF SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR THESE
DAYS. ALSO...COULD SEE SOME PRECIP NEXT WEEKEND WITH AN UPPER LEVEL
TROUGH PUSHING INTO THE AREA...BUT NOT ENOUGH CONFIDENCE AT THIS
TIME TO PUT SIGNIFICANT POPS IN THE FORECAST.

TEMPS SHOULD BE FAIRLY CLOSE TO NORMAL FOR THE FIRST HAVE OF THE
WEEK...WITH A GENERAL WARMING TREND FROM THU THROUGH SUN.
&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z TUESDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 149 PM EDT MON JUL 9 2012

MONITORING A LINE OF TSRA STRETCHING FROM CENTRAL BARAGA CO THROUGH
ISHPEMING AND NEGAUNEE...HEADING SSE TOWARD SAW. EXPECT TSRA TO
SLIDE OVER OR JUST W OF SAW BY 19Z...WITH SHRA CONTINUING BEHIND THE
MAIN LINE. OTHER THAN SAW WITH INITIAL MVFR CEIGS POSSIBLE...VFR
CEILINGS AND VIS CAN BE EXPECTED AT SAW...AS WELL AS CMX AND IWD.
WINDS SHOULD REMAIN AOB 10KTS...WITH MAINLY DIURNALLY DRIVEN TSRA
THAT WILL BE TOO LOW TO PUT IN THE FCST YET FOR TUESDAY.

.MARINE...(FOR THE 4 AM LAKE SUPERIOR FORECAST ISSUANCE)
ISSUED AT 507 AM EDT MON JUL 9 2012

HIGH PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL REMAIN IN CONTROL THROUGH THURSDAY AS IT
SHIFTS EASTWARD TOWARD THE LOWER GREAT LAKES. WINDS WILL REMAIN
BELOW 15 KNOTS AND GENERALLY OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST TO NORTHWEST
