AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND RAPIDS MI
705 AM EST TUE NOV 12 2013

LATEST UPDATE...
AVIATION

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 330 AM EST TUE NOV 12 2013

LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE THIS MORNING WITHIN A FEW
MILES OF THE COAST.  AN ADDITIONAL INCH OR TWO WILL BE LIKELY BEFORE
THE SNOW TAPERS OFF THIS AFTERNOON.  ELSEWHERE SCATTERED SNOW
SHOWERS COULD BRING A LIGHT DUSTING.  ALL SNOW IS EXPECTED TO END OR
DIMINISH TO FLURRIES BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON.  THE WEATHER WILL BE
QUIET TONIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY WITH A GRADUAL WARM UP TO THE MID AND
UPPER 40S BY THURSDAY.

TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO WARM INTO THE 50S BY SUNDAY AND MONDAY
WITH A DECENT CHANCE OF RAIN SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 330 AM EST TUE NOV 12 2013

DOMINANT SNOW BANDS CONTINUE EARLY THIS MORNING...PARTICULARLY
ACROSS MASON AND OCEANA COUNTIES...AND OCCASIONALLY IMPACTING FAR
WESTERN MUSKEGON AND VAN BUREN COUNTIES. HEADLINES LOOK FINE AS
THE MOISTURE DEPTH IS SHOWN TO BECOME MORE SHALLOW BY LATE MORNING
AND INTO THE AFTERNOON. HAVE ADDITIONAL ACCUMS OF UP TO ANOTHER
THREE INCHES POSSIBLE BEFORE WE SEE THE DIMINISHING TREND LATER
THIS MORNING.

OTHERWISE THE SHORT TERM IS RATHER QUIET WITH HIGH PRESSURE MOVING
ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY ON WED.  SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL BECOME BRISK BY
WED AFTERNOON AND THESE SHOULD CONTINUE RIGHT INTO THURSDAY.  WE
WILL REMAIN DRY DURING THIS PERIOD...BUT THE RETURN FLOW WILL HELP
TEMPS WARM TO THE MID AND UPPER 40S BY THURSDAY.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 340 AM EST TUE NOV 12 2013

THE LONG TERM PERIOD WILL FEATURE ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES AS A
BROAD LONGWAVE TROUGH EVOLVES OVER THE WESTERN HALF OF THE NATION
AND RESULTS IN DEEP SOUTHWEST FLOW ALOFT.

THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR OVER AN INCH OF RAIN AND PERHAPS SOME
THUNDERSTORMS ON SUNDAY AND MONDAY AS A MOIST FLOW OFF THE GULF
INTERACTS WITH A STALLED FRONTAL BOUNDARY JUST WEST OF MICHIGAN.

SEVERAL WAVES ARE PROGGED TO MOVE ALONG THIS FRONT... WITH THE
MAIN/FINAL WAVE CURRENTLY EXPECTED TO COME THROUGH ON MONDAY/MONDAY
NIGHT PER THE LATEST ECMWF. SHOULD THIS SOLUTION VERIFY... WITH A
DEEPENING SFC LOW TRACKING THROUGH MICHIGAN... WE COULD BE LOOKING
AT SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 60S AHEAD OF
THE FRONT... FOLLOWED BY VERY WINDY CONDITIONS WITH FALLING
TEMPERATURES AND SNOW SHOWERS BEHIND THE FRONT. CONFIDENCE IS LOW
HOWEVER ON THE TIMING/TRACK/STRENGTH OF THIS WAVE SINCE THE GFS IS
CURRENTLY NOT IN GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE ECMWF.

THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY FOR THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY STILL LOOKS VERY
WEAK AND MOISTURE STARVED SO THE RAIN POTENTIAL FOR THAT PERIOD
LOOKS QUITE LOW. WE MAY EVEN BE ABLE TO REMOVE POPS FOR IN LATER
FORECASTS.  THE PRIMARY THREAT OF WIDESPREAD SHOWERS HOLDS OFF UNTIL
LATE SATURDAY OR SATURDAY NIGHT AS THE SWLY LOW LEVEL STRENGTHENS TO
40+ KNOTS AND BECOMES AIMED AT LWR MI.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 12Z TAFS THROUGH 12Z WEDNESDAY MORNING)
ISSUED AT 700 AM EST TUE NOV 12 2013

VFR CONDITIONS WILL DOMINATE TODAY AND TONIGHT. CLEAR SKIES EARLY
THIS MORNING WILL TRANSITION TO BROKEN STRATOCUMULUS CLOUDS WITH
BASES AROUND 3500 FT BY MID TO LATE MORNING.

THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS OVER LK MI WILL DIMINISH THIS MORNING
THEN MOVE INLAND AS FLURRIES THIS AFTERNOON. KMKG COULD SEE SOME
BRIEF MVFR/IFR CONDITIONS 13-16Z AS THE WEAKENING SNOW BAND MOVES
ONSHORE. SKIES WILL BECOME CLR-SCT AGAIN TONIGHT.

SFC WINDS WILL INCREASE OUT OF THE NORTHWEST LATER THIS MORNING
WITH GUSTS TO 25 KNOTS. THE WINDS WILL DIMINISH BELOW 10 KTS
TONIGHT.

&&

.MARINE...
ISSUED AT 330 AM EST TUE NOV 12 2013

WILL GO WITH A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY FOR ALL THE NEARSHORE WATERS FOR
TODAY AND TONIGHT.  WE MAY NEED A GALE WATCH FOR WED
AFTERNOON/EVENING AS SW WINDS ARE EXPECTED PEAK.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 330 AM EST TUE NOV 12 2013

OTHER THEN THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW THIS MORNING...MUCH OF THE SHORT
TERM WILL BE DRY.
