AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
415 PM EDT SUN OCT 20 2013

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 415 PM EDT SUN OCT 20 2013

COOL WEATHER WITH PERIODS OF LAKE EFFECT SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH THE WORK WEEK...AS A BROAD TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE REMAINS
OVER THE GREAT LAKES. EVEN COLDER AIR WILL ENGULF THE GREAT LAKES
AND UPPER MIDWEST MONDAY...AS ANOTHER WEAK STORM SYSTEM EXITS
NORTHEAST INTO QUEBEC EARLY IN THE WORK WEEK. TEMPERATURES WILL EVEN
GET COLD ENOUGH TO BRING THE FIRST SNOWFALL OF THE
SEASON...ESPECIALLY TO INTERIOR SECTIONS OF EASTERN UPPER AND
NORTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 415 PM EDT SUN OCT 20 2013

PERHAPS ONE OF THE BEST DAYS WE WILL SEE OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL.
SUBTLE LOW AMPLITUDE SFC RIDGING SITTING ACROSS LOWER MICHIGAN
CURRENTLY ALONG WITH A WEDGE OF DRY AIR SLIDING THROUGH THE REGION.
THIS HAS BROUGHT US A BIT OF A LULL IN THE WEATHER WITH A FAIR
AMOUNT OF SUNSHINE ACROSS THE CWA...SAVE FOR A SMALL BATCH OF
LINGERING LAKE INDUCED SHOWERS MOVING UP THROUGH EASTERN UPPER
MICHIGAN.

THINGS WILL BE CHANGING IN A HURRY HOWEVER. UPSTREAM...SFC LOW
PRESSURE SLIDING SOUTHEASTWARD THROUGH THE UPPER MIDWEST IN RESPONSE
TO SMALL UPPER JET CORE PUSHING ACROSS IOWA...AS WELL AS A
SUBSTANTIALLY STRONGER SHORT WAVE DIVING SOUTHWARD OUT OF
SOUTH-CENTRAL CANADA. INCREASING WARM ADVECTION AHEAD OF THE LOW
ALREADY PUSHING A BAND OF PRECIP E/NE THROUGH WISCONSIN. THIS BATCH
OF WARM ADVECTION FORCED PRECIP WILL PIVOT SW-NE UP INTO NRN
MICHIGAN OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. A FAIR AMOUNT OF OVER LAKE
INSTABILITY (LAKE-H8 DELTA T/S IN THE TEENS) OVER LAKE MICHIGAN
SHOULD HELP THE CAUSE AS WELL. THIS SHOULD LEAD TO ANOTHER
WIDESPREAD BATCH OF RAINFALL EXPANDING UP ACROSS THE CWA THIS
EVENING....MAINLY BETWEEN 00Z AND 06Z...AS UPSTREAM SFC LOW DEEPENS
AND SWINGS UP INTO NRN LAKE MICHIGAN. HAVE CATEGORICAL POPS
SPREADING SW-NE INTO THE CWA AND THE MAIN SHORT TERM FORECAST
ADJUSTMENTS FOR THE UPCOMING SHIFT SHOULD JUST BE TIMING ADJUSTMENTS
AS THE EVENT UNFOLDS.

THUNDER...OVER LAKE INSTABILITY COUPLED WITH SOME MODESTLY STEEP
LOW-MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES AND STRONG WARM ADVECTION FORCING...MIGHT
BE ENOUGH TO SUPPORT A LOW END RISK FOR THUNDER...ALTHOUGH I/M NOT
TERRIBLY CONVINCED. WILL HAVE ISOLATED THREAT HOWEVER BUT MAINLY TO
MATCH SURROUNDING FORECAST OFFICES.

THEN...WILL CATCH A BIT OF A BREAK LATER THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT
AS "WING" OF WARM ADVECTION PRECIP CONTINUES TO DRIVE NORTHEASTWARD
THROUGH UPPER MICHIGAN AND EVENTUALLY INTO CANADA AND SOME SEMBLANCE
OF A DRY SLOT POKES UP THROUGH NRN LOWER MICHIGAN. BUT SOME LAKE
SHOWERS WILL PROBABLY PERSIST FOR PARTS OF NW LOWER AND EASTERN
UPPER AS LOW LEVEL FLOW TURNS MORE SW.

MONDAY...POTENT COLD FRONT SWEEPS THROUGH THE CWA DELIVERING THE
COLDEST AIR OF THIS YOUNG COOL SEASON IN ITS WAKE...AS WEDGE OF -4C
TO -8C H8 AIR ROTATES INTO THE REGION BY EVENING. WILL HAVE A FAIRLY
DECENT DRY SLOT NOSING ACROSS THE REGION THROUGH THE DAY AS STRONG
MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE ROTATES THROUGH UPPER MICHIGAN. BUT GIVEN THE
INCREASING OVER LAKE INSTABILITY (DELTA T/S INCREASING INTO THE 20S)
WILL LIKELY SEE LAKE EFFECT RAIN SHOWERS RAMPING UP OVER PARTS OF NW
LOWER MICHIGAN INTO THE STRAITS AND EASTER UPPER MICHIGAN...ON WSW
LOW LEVEL MEAN FLOW. FREEZING LEVELS DROP LOW ENOUGH BY LATE
AFTERNOON TO HAVE RA/SN MIX ACROSS INLAND AREAS. S/E PARTS OF THE
CWA WILL LARGELY BE DRY BUT WITH A FAIR AMOUNT OF HEATING INDUCED
STCU. TEMPS...FLAT-LINE TO FALLING TO THE UPPER 30S TO LOW 40S.

&&

.LONG TERM...(MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 415 PM EDT SUN OCT 20 2013

(10/21)MONDAY NIGHT...IN THE EVENING, THE COOLER IS A LITTLE MORE
AGGRESSIVE THAN ON YESTERDAY'S MODEL RUNS. THE ECMWF HAS SOME -7C TO
-8C AIR AT 850 THAT MOVES IN TO NW LOWER BY 06Z. WITH THE MOISTURE
IN THE 850-700 MB LAYER RH ABOVE 60%, THE PRECIPITATION LOOKS TO BE
MIXED, ESPECIALLY AT THE COAST, WITH SNOW MAINLY INLAND. TRIED TO
PLAY WITH THE SNOW RATIOS, AND CAME UP WITH SOME INCH OR SO AMOUNTS
WHERE THE MOST PRECIPITATION IS EXPECTED, WITH LIGHTER AMOUNTS
FARTHER OUT. WE'LL SEE, AS AM NOT SURE THAT THE AMOUNTS ARE THAT
GOOD. HOWEVER, MOST OF THIS SHOULD BE MINOR TO LIGHT AMOUNTS WHERE
THE SNOW DOES ACCUMULATE. THE SNOW INTENSITY WILL BE THE MAJOR
FACTOR HERE AS THE SOIL TEMPERATURES ARE STILL AROUND 50F TODAY, AND
PROBABLY IN THE MID TO UPPER 40S BY MONDAY NIGHT. DON'T THINK THAT
MUCH ACCUMULATES ON THE ROADS, ALTHOUGH BRIDGES AND OVERPASSES COULD
BE SLICK WITH THE LOWS EXPECTED TO GET TO AROUND 30F.

(10/22)TUESDAY...AS WE GET INTO THE MORNING, SOME MID LEVEL WARMING
(850 MB TEMPERATURES GO TO -5C) WILL PROBABLY SEE A MIX AROUND MOST
PLACES. EVERYTHING ELSE IS IN PLACE FOR LAKE EFFECT, BUT IT WILL
TRANSITION FROM MIX TO RAIN OVER MOST OF THE FORECAST AREA, EXCEPT
PARTS OF E UPPER AND THE HIGHLANDS IN N LOWER. THERE WILL BE A MIX
THERE. OF COURSE, WITH THE WARMER TEMPERATURES, AND THE MIX
EXPECTED, CONTINUE WITH THE MINOR AMOUNTS.

TUESDAY NIGHT...AGAIN HAVE MOVED FROM A MIX TO ALL SNOW INLAND, AND
A MIX AT THE SHORE. IN THE EVENING, THE IT LOOKS LIKE, ON ALL
MODELS, THAT THERE IS A SLUG OF DRIER AIR THAT COULD SLOW DOWN THE
LAKE EFFECT MACHINE. SO HAVE THE PRECIPITATION GETTING LIGHT AS THE
DRY AIR MOVES THROUGH, THEN THE 850-700 MB MOISTURE INCREASE ABOVE
60% AGAIN AND THE TEMPERATURES COOL TO ABOUT -7C OR -8C.

(10/23)WEDNESDAY...AS WE GET INTO THE DAY, THE 850 MB TEMPERATURES
HOVER AROUND -6C AND THE SFC TEMPERATURES RISE TO AROUND +3 TO 5C AS
WE GET INTO THE DAY. THE SOUNDINGS BY 18Z SHOW ABOUT A 2000FT WARM
LAYER ABOVE THE SFC, SO HAVE THE AFTERNOON GOING TO ALL RAIN IN AN
OPTIMISTIC MOVE TO KEEP THE SNOW FROM GETTING OUT OF HAND.
OVERNIGHT, THE GFS AND ECMWF HAVE A DISAGREEMENT ON THE COOLNESS OF
THE 1000-850 MB LAYER. THE GFS HAS -6C AT 850 WITH A 1000-850
THICKNESS OF 1296. SO ACCOUNTING FOR THE SFC BEING AROUND 35F MOST
OF THE NIGHT, THAT THERE WILL BE A MIX OF RAIN AND SNOW. THE ECMWF
IS A BIT COOLER THAT MAKES ME NERVOUS AS THE 850 MB TEMPERATURE IS
AROUND -7C IN N LOWER WITH THE 1288 THICKNESS LINE IN E UPPER. THIS
COULD MEAN MORE SNOW, THAN THE MIX. WILL HAVE TO SEE HOW THIS
EVOLVES.

EXTENDED (THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)...(10/24)THURSDAY...TEMPERATURES
HAVE BEEN GETTING COLDER WITH EACH RUN OF THE MODELS IN THE LONG
TERM. TODAY, THE TEMPERATURES AT 850 MB ARE AROUND -7C IN N LAKE
MICHIGAN AND ALMOST -8C IN E UPPER. BASED ON THE MOISTURE IN THE
850-700 MB LAYER (RH>60%) LAKE EFFECT RAIN DURING THE DAY WITH
LITTLE SNOW MIXED IN INLAND. THEN AT NIGHT, SNOW WITH A LITTLE RAIN
MIXED IN NEAR THE SHORELINES. THE GFS BEGINS TO BACK TO THE WEST
OVERNIGHT, BUT THE ECMWF REMAINS CONSISTENTLY NW.
(10/25)FRIDAY...THERE IS STILL A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE GFS AND
ECMWF, WHICH WAS NOTED IN YESTERDAY'S DISCUSSION. BY 00Z, THE GFS
IS WARMING AND WINDS ARE OUT OF THE SW. THE ECMWF IS STILL NW WITH
THE 1000-850 MB RIDGE IN CENTRAL WISCONSIN/W UPPER, AND WITH EVEN
COLDER 850 MB TEMPERATURES (-9C IN E LAKE SUPERIOR AND -8C IN N LAKE
MICHIGAN). (10/26)SATURDAY...THE MAJOR DIFFERENCE IS STILL THERE IN
THE MODELS WITH THE LOW ALREADY IN WHITEFISH BAY IN THE MORNING ON
THE GFS. THE ECMWF HAS SW WINDS WITH THE 850 MB TEMPERATURES JUST
BEGINNING TO WARM. BY THE END OF THE DAY, THE LES IS IN THE NW
LOWER, WHILE THE RAIN IS OVER THE FORECAST AREA AS THE LOW IS JUST
PASSING TO THE NORTH. WILL GO WITH RAIN OR SNOW IN THE FORECAST.
(10/27)SUNDAY...LOOKS LIKE CHANCE OF RAIN OR SNOW AS THE MODELS BOTH
HAVE LAKE EFFECT, BUT DIFFERING THERMAL PROFILES. THE GFS IS MUCH
COLDER THAN THE ECMWF. THE ECMWF IS COOLING, BUT BY 00Z, IT IS STILL
SHOWING A MIX. THE GFS IS AROUND -8C SO IT WILL PROBABLY BE ALL SNOW
BY THE EVENING.

.MARINE...
ISSUED AT 415 PM EDT SUN OCT 20 2013

MONDAY MORNING...AND ULTIMATELY WESTERLY THROUGH THE DAY. LOWER
END GALE FORCE GUSTS ARE POSSIBLE ACROSS LAKE MICHIGAN AND THROUGH
THE STRAITS...WHILE THE REST OF THE NEARSHORE AREAS WILL EXPERIENCE
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CONDITIONS. SOME GALE GUSTS ALSO POSSIBLE ON
