AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MARQUETTE MI
746 AM EDT THU OCT 25 2012

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY AND TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 518 AM EDT THU OCT 25 2012

ELONGATED SURFACE TROUGH IS STRETCHING FROM NORTHERN LAKE SUPERIOR
THROUGH WEST CENTRAL WISCONSIN...AND DOWN INTO KANSAS. SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS EXTEND ALONG THIS TROUGH...WITH MORE WIDESPREAD AND
STRONGER SHOWERS ASSOCIATED WITH SHORTWAVES RIDING NORTHEAST AROUND
THE UPPER TROUGH IN THE NORTHERN PLAINS. AHEAD OF THESE
SHOWERS...WIDESPREAD LOW CLOUDS AND FOG ARE IN PLACE...BUT
TURBULENT MIXING FROM THE SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS HAS KEPT
VISIBILITIES HIGHER THAN YESTERDAY ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA. THE LAST
ITEM TO NOTE IS THE UNUSUALLY WARM TEMPERATURES ACROSS MUCH OF THE
AREA...WITH 4AM TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 50S TO MID 60S...WHICH IS
10-15 DEGREES ABOVE THE NORMAL HIGHS FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR.

THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED SERIES OF WAVE PUSHING NORTHEAST ALONG THE
TROUGH WILL BE THE MAIN PRECIPITATION MAKER FOR TODAY INTO TONIGHT
AS A LOW DEVELOPS IN CENTRAL WISCONSIN AND FOLLOWS THE TROUGH
THROUGH UPPER MICHIGAN TODAY. THE MAIN SHORTWAVE CURRENTLY IN THE
CENTRAL PLAINS WILL PUSH NORTHEST THROUGH THE WESTERN CWA THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CURRENTLY
IN WI AND THE WESTERN CWA SHOULD CONTINUE OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS AS
THEY SHIFT TO THE NORTHEST. SPC MESOCALE ANALYSIS SHOWING MUCAPE
GRADIENT ACROSS THE WEST CENTRAL CWA WITH THE SURFACE TROUGH. OVER
THE EAST...MUCAPE VALUES AROUND 1000 J/KG...WHILE TOWARDS KIWD
VALUES ARE LESS THAN 250 J/KG. THUNDERSTORMS THAT DEVELOPED THIS
MORNING IN THE BETTER INSTABILITY HAD SEEN STRONGER UPDRAFTS...BUT
AS THEY HAVE SHIFTED TO THE NNE AND INTO WEAKER INSTABILITY THEIR
UPDRAFTS HAVE REALLY DIMINISHED. THUS...DON/T THINK THERE IS MUCH
CONCERN FOR SEVERE WEATHER...ALTHOUGH THERE IS AN ISOLATED CELL IN
NORTHEAST WI IN THE BETTER INSTABILITY THAT IS REMAINING STRONG.

THE SECOND WAVE CURRENTLY IN NORTHWEST IOWA AND SOUTHERN MN WILL
MOVE THROUGH THE AREA THIS MORNING AS H500 HEIGHT FALLS PUSH WEST
ACROSS THE CWA THROUGH THE DAY. THE FORCING...WHICH
WILL BE ALONG AND JUST NORTHWEST OF THE DEVELOPING SURFACE
LOW...SHOULD ARRIVE TOWARDS MID MORNING OVER THE WESTERN CWA. THIRD
AND LIKELY FINAL WAVE OF PRECIPITATION WILL BE ALONG AND BEHIND THE
STRONG COLD FRONT THAT WILL BE INTENSIFYING THROUGH THE AFTERNOON
HOURS /H850 TEMPS FALLING FROM THE LOW TEENS ABOVE ZERO THIS MORNING
TO -3C OVER THE WEST THIS AFTERNOON. IN ADDITION...H500 HEIGHT FALLS
WILL BE INCREASING FROM WEST TO EAST THIS AFTERNOON WITH THE
SHORTWAVE MOVING INTO THE WESTERN CWA. INSTABILITY SLOWLY DECREASES
THIS AFTERNOON AS THE COLD FRONT IS PUSHING EAST ACROSS THE
AREA...MUCAPES FALLING INTO THE 400-700 J/KG RANGE DUE TO WEAKENING
MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES. SO THE THUNDER POTENTIAL WILL STILL BE
THERE...BASED ON CONVECTION IN WESTERN WI EARLY THIS MORNING IN
SIMILAR INSTABILITY...BUT WILL LEAVE IT AT A CHANCE THIS AFTERNOON.
THINK THE MAIN THREAT WILL BE BRIEF HEAVY RAIN WITH THE SHOWERS AND
ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON...AS PWAT VALUES ARE OVER 250
PERCENT OF NORMAL.

AS FOR WINDS TODAY...THE TIGHTENING PRESSURE GRADIENT SHOULD LEAD
TO WINDS IN THE 20-30MPH RANGE OVER THE EAST HALF. BUT THE CLOUDS
AND THE INVERSION ABOVE THE SURFACE WILL KEEP THE STRONGER 40-50KT
SOUTHERLY WINDS ALOFT FROM COMING DOWN TO THE SURFACE. BEHIND THE
SURFACE LOW THAT MOVES THROUGH THIS AFTERNOON WILL BE ANOTHER PERIOD
OF GUSTY WINDS...AS THEY SHIFT TO THE WEST-NORTHWEST. WINDS
ALOFT AREN/T MUCH MORE THAN 30-35KTS...BUT WITH THE STRONG COLD AIR
ADVECTION AND THE PRESSURE RISES...FEEL THAT THERE SHOULD BE A
PERIOD OF GUSTS TO 35-40MPH OVER THE KEWEENAW. FINALLY...AS THE
COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH...WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT FALLING
TEMPERATURES FROM WEST TO EAST DURING THE DAY.

AFTER THE REMAINING PRECIPITATION FROM THE EXITING FRONT...MAIN
THING FOR TONIGHT WILL BE THE SIGNIFICANT COOLING TREND AND VERY DRY
MID LEVEL AIR MOVING OVER THE CWA. EXPECT ONGOING SHOWERS OVER THE
EASTERN CWA TO CONTINUE TO PUSH EAST WITH THE COLD FRONT THIS
EVENING AND END DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS FROM WEST TO EAST. THE
DRYING ALOFT SHOULD LEAD TO DECREASING CLOUDS OVER MOST OF THE AREA
THROUGH THE NIGHT. THE ONLY EXCEPTION IS DECENT MOISTURE BELOW H850
HANGING ON OVER THE KEWEENAW TONIGHT UNDER THE WESTERLY FLOW. WITH
THE H850 TEMPS FALLING TO -7C BY 12Z FRIDAY...THINK THAT LAKE CLOUDS
SHOULD REMAIN THROUGH THE NIGHT. THE GENERAL SUBSIDENCE ALOFT WILL
LIKELY LIMIT SHOWER POTENTIAL...ALONG WITH SHORT RESIDENCE TIME OVER
THE WESTERN LAKE...BUT CYCLONIC FLOW MAY BE SUPPORTIVE OF SOME
ISOLATED AND TRANSIENT SHOWERS. IF SHOWERS OCCUR...EXPECT THE RAIN
TO MIX WITH AND CHANGE OVER TO SNOW OVER THE WEST.

.LONG TERM...(FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY)
ISSUED AT 518 AM EDT THU OCT 25 2012

NAM SHOWS A CLOSED 500 MB LOW OVER WESTERN ONTARIO WITH A TROUGH
ACROSS THE PLAINS 12Z FRI. TROUGHING STAYS IN THE GREAT LAKES REGION
THROUGH 12Z SUN. WRAPAROUND MOISTURE LOOKS TO STAY WELL NORTH AND
WEST OF THE AREA. WITH A WEST WIND...THERE COULD STILL BE A CHANCE
FOR LAKE EFFECT PCPN FOR THE KEWEENAW EVEN WITH SIGNIFICANT DRYING
IN THE ATMOSPHERE. 850 MB TEMPERATURES OFF THE NAM/GFS AND ECMWF GET
DOWN TO -6C TO -8C FRIDAY THROUGH SAT AND WITH LAKE SUPERIOR
TEMPERATURES FROM 6C TO 9C...THIS WOULD BE ENOUGH FOR LAKE EFFECT
PCPN. WILL CONTINUE TO GO WITH SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR THIS
POSSIBILITY. IT LOOKS TO BE COLD AS WELL AND LOWERED HIGH
TEMPERATURES A BIT FOR FRIDAY AND SATURDAY WITH VERY COLD 850 MB
TEMPERATURES. OVERALL THOUGH...NOT ANY REAL HUGE CHANGES TO THE
GOING FORECAST.

IN THE EXTENDED...GFS AND ECMWF SHOW A 500 MB TROUGH OVER THE
CENTRAL U.S. 12Z SUNDAY WITH COLD AIR AROUND. SANDY THEN COMES INTO
PLAY WITH THE ECMWF STILL THE FURTHEST WEST TO TRACK IT ONTO THE MID
ATLANTIC REGION WHILE THE GFS ON BOTH 12Z AND 18Z RUNS KEEPS SANDY
WELL OFFSHORE 12Z MON. THIS HAS SOME DIFFERENCES COME INTO PLAY FOR
US AS THE GFS CONTINUES TO MAINTAIN A TROUGH OVER THE UPPER GREAT
LAKES WHILE THE ECMWF SHOVES THE TROUGH FURTHER EAST AND STARTS TO
BRING IN AN UPPER LEVEL RIDGE. THESE DIFFERENCES STILL REMAIN INTO
TUE AND WED. WITH BOTH MODELS RETAINING CONSISTENCY IN THEIR
RESPECTIVE SOLUTIONS...CONFIDENCE REMAINS LOW FOR THIS FORECAST.
STILL LOOKS COLD FOR THE FORECAST PERIOD WITH SOME LAKE EFFECT PCPN
POSSIBLE WITH A WESTERLY WIND AT THE BEGINNING GOING MORE TO A NORTH
WIND LATER IN THE PERIOD. KEPT SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN FOR THIS
POSSIBILITY FOR NOW EVEN WITH SFC RIDGING NEARBY. ONE THING THAT
SANDY WILL DO IS SLOW UP THE WEATHER PATTERN AND KEEP IT COLD WITH
LITTLE CHANGE IN THE FORECAST UNTIL IT GETS ABSORBED INTO A
TROUGH.
&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z FRIDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 746 AM EDT THU OCT 25 2012

EXPECT A SERIES OF SHOWERS AND POTENTIALLY THUNDERSTORMS TO AFFECT
THE TAF SITES OVER THE NEXT 12 HOURS...AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
DEVELOPS ALONG A SURFACE TROUGH OVER UPPER MICHIGAN. THE BIG
QUESTION FOR THE FORECAST WILL BE HOW THE MIXING FROM THE RAIN WILL
AFFECT THE LOW CEILINGS/VISIBILITIES. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES
OVERNIGHT THAT THIS MIXING HAS PUSHED CEILINGS UP TO MVFR. THINK
KIWD WOULD BE MOST LIKELY TO STAY DOWN FOR MUCH OF THE DAY WITH
FAVORABLE UPSLOPE FLOW THROUGH THE DAY. SAME THING FOR KSAW...WITH
WINDS OUT A SOUTHERLY DIRECTION UNTIL THE TROUGH MOVES THROUGH.
EITHER WAY...THINK THE PERIODS OF RAIN WILL KEEP LOWER VISIBILITIES
THROUGH MUCH OF THE DAY.

ONCE THE LOW DEVELOPS AND MOVES OVER LAKE SUPERIOR...THE TROUGH
WILL PUSH EAST AS A COLD FRONT AND EXPECT WINDS TO INCREASE THIS
AFTERNOON AT KIWD/KCMX. COULD GET QUITE GUSTY FOR A FEW HOURS AT
KCMX WITH A WESTERLY WIND...GUSTS TO 30-35KTS. BEHIND THE
FRONT...DRIER AIR WILL BEGIN TO MOVE IN AND EXPECT
CEILINGS/VISIBILITIES TO IMPROVE FROM WEST TO EAST.
&&

.MARINE...(FOR THE 4 AM LAKE SUPERIOR FORECAST ISSUANCE)
ISSUED AT 518 AM EDT THU OCT 25 2012

SURFACE TROUGH THAT IS LOCATED OVER WESTERN UPPER MICHIGAN AND
CENTRAL LAKE SUPERIOR WILL BE THE LOCATION OF A DEVELOPING LOW IN
WISCONSIN. THIS LOW WILL FOLLOW THE TROUGH AS IT INTENSIFIES THIS
AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT WHILE MOVING INTO ONTARIO. THIS LOW WILL
SWEEP A COLD FRONT ACROSS EASTERN LAKE SUPERIOR THIS AFTERNOON AND
EVENING. BEFORE THIS LOW...EXPECT FOG TO BE LOCATED OVER PORTIONS
OF WESTERN/CENTRAL LAKE SUPERIOR. HAVE SEEN SOME LOWER VISIBILITIES
FROM SHIP OBS...BUT FEEL IT IS PATCHY ENOUGH TO NOT TO ADD A DENSE
FOG ADVISORY. PLUS...WITH THE INCREASING WINDS AND DRIER AIR
ARRIVING THIS AFTERNOON...ANY FOG SHOULD BE TRANSIENT AS IT
DIMINISHES.

EXPECT GALES RIGHT BEHIND THE FRONT FOR A PERIOD OF TIME TONIGHT
OVER PORTIONS OF CENTRAL LAKE SUPERIOR. WINDS ALOFT AREN/T MUCH MORE
THAN 30-35KTS...BUT WITH THE STRONG COLD AIR ADVECTION AND PRESSURE
RISES...FEEL THAT THERE SHOULD BE A PERIOD OF FREQUENT GALE FORCE
GUSTS. THUS...HAVE SWITCHED THE GALE WATCH TO A GALE WARNING FOR
00-12Z FRIDAY. A LINGERING PRESSURE GRADIENT BETWEEN THE EXITING LOW
IN NORTHERN ONTARIO AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING OVER THE NORTHERN
PLAINS WILL KEEP WESTERLY WINDS IN THE 20-30KT RANGE. AS THE HIGH
PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE UPPER GREAT LAKES THROUGH THE
WEEKEND...EXPECT WINDS TO DIMINISH BELOW 20KTS FOR THE WEEKEND.
