AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
355 PM EDT FRI OCT 24 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 351 PM EDT FRI OCT 24 2014

CLOUDS WILL BRIEFLY DEPART TONIGHT...ONLY TO RETURN LATE AND INTO
SATURDAY AS A COLD FRONT WORKS THROUGH THE REGION. NO RAIN IS
EXPECTED WITH THIS FEATURE...BUT WINDY CONDITIONS ARE LIKELY INTO
SATURDAY NIGHT. SUNDAY LOOKS SEASONABLY COOL BUT NICE WITH HIGH
PRESSURE IN CONTROL...BEFORE STRENGTHENING LOW PRESSURE OVER THE
REGION PROVIDES SEVERAL CHANCES FOR RAIN SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH
MIDWEEK.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 351 PM EDT FRI OCT 24 2014

...MORE DRIZZLE? ...

HIGH IMPACT WEATHER POTENTIAL: NONE.

PRIMARY FORECAST CHALLENGES: WHETHER THERE WILL BE ENOUGH BREAK IN
THE CLOUDS OVERNIGHT TO DROP TEMPERATURES LOWER TONIGHT.

CURRENTLY, WEAK RETURN FLOW OVER THE FORECAST IS HELPING TO KEEP THE
LOW LEVEL MOISTURE IN NORTHERN MICHIGAN THROUGH THE DAY. THE
MOISTURE EXTENDS TO THE WEST OVER LAKE MICHIGAN AND INTO EASTERN
WISCONSIN. TO THE WEST IS THE SFC LOW JUST NORTH OF LAKE WINNIPEG
AND THE 500 MB SHORTWAVE TROUGH IN THE CANADIAN PRAIRIES.

TONIGHT...WHILE THE CLEARING LINE IN WISCONSIN IS BEGINNING TO HEAD
OUT OVER LAKE MICHIGAN, MORE MOISTURE IS POOLING IN THE UPPER
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND IS EXPECTED TO MOVE INTO NORTHERN LOWER
OVERNIGHT. IN THE MEANTIME, THE CLEARING OF THE LOW CLOUDS AROUND
THE FORECAST AREA, WILL MOVE THROUGH LATE THIS EVENING WHICH WILL
TEMPORARILY ALLOW THE TEMPERATURES TO DROP BEFORE THE NEXT SURGE OF
MOISTURE/CLOUDS MOVES IN POST 04Z. ONCE THE NEXT BATCH IS IN HERE,
AND WITH THE TIGHTER SFC GRADIENT, WILL EXPECT THAT THE TEMPERATURES
WILL BEGIN TO HEAD BACK UP OR AT THE VERY LEAST HOLD STEADY AS WE
HEAD INTO SATURDAY MORNING. WITH THE FORMATION OF THE LOW CLOUDS,
THE MODEL SOUNDINGS ARE MARGINAL WITH AN INCREASE IN MOISTURE WITH
HEIGHT, SO WILL ALLOW FOR PATCHY DRIZZLE WHILE AREAS OF LIGHT FOG
AROUND THE FORECAST AREA AGAIN SIMILAR TO THIS MORNING. HOWEVER, IT
LOOKS LIKE AROUND 12Z THAT THE COLD FRONT WILL BE PUSHING THROUGH,
SO THAT THERE COULD BE SOME THINNING OF THE CLOUDS, ESPECIALLY ALONG
THE LAKE MICHIGAN SHORELINE.

&&

.LONG TERM...(SATURDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)
ISSUED AT 351 PM EDT FRI OCT 24 2014

OVERVIEW: FOUR WAVE LONG WAVE PATTERN REMAINS IN PLACE TODAY WITH
TROUGHINESS ACROSS THE FAR EASTERN PACIFIC AND STRONG JET ENERGY
FLOWING INTO THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST...DOWNSTREAM RIDGING INTO THE
CENTRAL CONUS. FLOW BECOMES A BIT MORE SPLIT ACROSS EASTERN
NOAM...WITH AN OLD CUT-OFF FEATURE LIFTING NE ALONG THE ATLANTIC
COAST INTO NEW ENGLAND. SPLIT SHORT WAVE ENERGY (THAT BROUGHT US
ISOLATED SHOWERS OVERNIGHT) NOW EXITING THE GREAT LAKES WITH ONE
PIECE MOVING UP THROUGH EASTERN CANADA AND ANOTHER MOVING DOWN
THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY TOWARD THE SE ATLANTIC STATES. AT THE
SFC...NARROW RIDGE AXIS STRETCHES FROM THE GULF UP THROUGH THE GREAT
LAKES. BUT ABUNDANT STRATUS SPANS THE MIDWEST INTO THE GREAT LAKES
AND LOOKING TO IMPACT THE REGION FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER DAY.

PATTERN EVOLUTION/FORECAST: OVERALL HEMISPHERIC FLOW PATTERN STILL
EXPECTED TO FLATTEN OUT AND BECOME MORE PROGRESSIVE FOR THE NEXT
SEVERAL DAYS...WITH A SERIES OF SHORT WAVE TROUGHS MOVING
THROUGH/NEAR THE REGION THROUGH THE EXTENDED FORECAST PERIOD.

BY LATE NEXT WEEK...HEMISPHERIC LONGWAVE PATTERN WAS FORECAST TO
UNDERGO A RECONFIGURATION WITH A BIG PUSH OF COLD AIR AND LARGER
SCALE TROUGHING DEVELOPING ACROSS EASTERN NOAM AND THE GREAT
LAKES...RAISING THE POSSIBILITIES FOR OUR FIRST SNOW OF THIS SEASON.
HOWEVER...RECENT EURO/GFS/GEM GUIDANCE SOLUTIONS HAVE BACKED OFF
THIS IDEA...SOMEWHAT...AND INSTEAD HANG ON TO EASTERN PACIFIC
TROUGHING WHILE MAINTAINING A BIT MORE PROGRESSIVE FLOW ACROSS THE
CONUS. COLDER AIR DOES STILL MAKE A SOUTHWARD PUSH OUT OF THE ARCTIC
NEXT WEEK...BUT TRENDS SUGGEST MORE OF A GLANCING BLOW OF COLD AIR
FOR THE GREAT LAKES WHILE CORE OF COLDEST AIR SLIDES THROUGH EASTERN
CANADA. BUT THERE IS STILL QUITE A BIT OF FORECAST UNCERTAINTY
TOWARD THE END OF NEXT WEEK HOWEVER...AS GUIDANCE SOLUTIONS HAVE
EXHIBITED A FAIR AMOUNT OF INCONSISTENCY.

IN THE NEARER TERM...BENIGN WEATHER ANTICIPATED THROUGH THE WEEKEND
WHILE LOW CLOUDS/FOG CONTINUE TO BE THE PRIMARY SHORT TERM FORECAST
CONCERN.

SATURDAY/SATURDAY NIGHT/SUNDAY...STRONG SHORT WAVE WORKING THROUGH
SOUTH-CENTRAL CANADA TODAY WILL TAKE A DIP DOWN THROUGH THE NRN
GREAT LAKES ON SATURDAY...WITH AN ATTENDING COLD FRONT DROPPING DOWN
THROUGH THE STATE BY EVENING. VERY LITTLE ORGANIZED PRECIP
ANTICIPATED WITH THIS SYSTEM AS STRONGER FORCING WILL RESIDE WELL
NORTH OF THE GREAT LAKES AND ANTECEDENT AIRMASS ACROSS THE GREAT
LAKES/MIDWEST IS FAIRLY DRY. ABOUT THE BEST CHANCE FOR ANY PRECIP
WILL OCCUR ACROSS THE NRN PARTS OF THE CWA LATE TONIGHT THROUGH
SATURDAY MORNING IN CLOSER PROXIMITY TO THE BETTER MOISTURE/
FORCING...ALTHOUGH THERE VERY WELL COULD BE SPOTTY RETURNS/SPRINKLES
ROLLING THROUGH THE REGION WITH THE FRONT. HOWEVER...NEXT BATCH OF
STRATUS ALREADY ACROSS IOWA/SRN MINNESOTA TODAY STILL LOOKING TO GET
DRAWN UP ACROSS NRN MICHIGAN AHEAD OF THE FRONT TONIGHT INTO
SATURDAY LEADING TO ANOTHER CLOUDY START TO THE DAY WITH DRIZZLE
AGAIN POSSIBLE PARTICULARLY ACROSS THE HIGHER TERRAIN. GOING
FORECAST ALREADY PAINTS THAT SCENARIO.

BEHIND THE FRONT...GUIDANCE HAS TRENDED MUCH MORE AGGRESSIVE WITH
MIXING AND DRYING THINGS OUT SATURDAY AFTERNOON/SATURDAY NIGHT AS A
BIG RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE AND WEDGE OF DRY AIR BUILD OVER THE GREAT
LAKES BY SUNDAY. FORECAST SOUNDINGS AND LOW LEVEL RH PROGS SUPPORT
CLEARING SKIES THROUGH SATURDAY AFTERNOON WHILE BREEZY NW WINDS
DEVELOP BEHIND THE FRONT AND PERSIST THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT.

SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT...SFC HIGH PRESSURE AND DRY AIR ACROSS THE
REGION WILL RESULT IN A DECENT DAY WITH DIMINISHING WINDS. A GOOD
AMOUNT OF SUNSHINE ANTICIPATED...ALTHOUGH WITH NW FLOW AND COOL LOW
LEVEL TEMPS...AM A BIT CONCERNED WE SEE A BIT MORE LAKE RESPONSE/
LAKE CLOUDS. THEN...A COOL NIGHT SUNDAY NIGHT WITH DIMINISHING
WINDS AND MAINLY CLEAR SKIES.

MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...AS MENTIONED ABOVE...FLOW BECOMES
MORE PROGRESSIVE FOR MUCH OF NEXT WEEK BEFORE TRANSITIONING TO
DEEPER TROUGHINESS ACROSS EASTERN NOAM HEADING INTO NEXT WEEKEND.
ANOTHER STRONGER PACIFIC SHORT WAVE TROUGH ADVANCES THROUGH THE
CONUS DURING THE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY TIMEFRAME BRINGING A STRONG
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM AND COLD FRONT THROUGH THE REGION LATE TUESDAY
AND ANOTHER SHOT OF CHILLY AIR FOR MIDWEEK. RAIN CHANCES START TO
INCREASE LATE SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY AS WE GET INTO THE WARM
ADVECTION FORCING PART OF THIS SYSTEM. BUT THE BEST RAIN CHANCES
WILL COME MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY AS THE SFC/UPPER LOW AND
FRONT ADVANCE THROUGH THE REGION.

GRADUALLY DRIES OUT FOR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. ALTHOUGH WITH COLDER
AIR OVER THE LAKES (-2C TO -4C H8 TEMPS) AND DEEPER CYCLONIC FLOW/
MOISTURE ACROSS THE NRN LAKES THROUGH AT LEAST WEDNESDAY...W/NW FLOW
LAKE EFFECT RAIN SHOWERS ARE A GOOD BET FOR WEDNESDAY. AFTER
THAT...PERHAPS A BREAK/DRY DAY FOR THURSDAY. BUT AS MENTIONED
ABOVE...EXPECT A BIGGER PUSH OF COLD AIR DOWN THROUGH CANADA AND
TOWARD THE GREAT LAKES FOR THE END OF THE WEEK. JUST HOW MUCH COLD
AIR GETS DOWN INTO THE GREAT LAKES IS STILL UP FOR DEBATE WITH
GUIDANCE TRENDS NOW KEEPING THE COLDEST AIR UP THROUGH EASTERN
CANADA. BUT COLDER NONETHELESS BY HALLOWEEN WITH LAKE EFFECT SHOWER
POTENTIAL. HAVE KEPT SNOW OUT OF THE FORECAST FOR NRN LOWER MICHIGAN
AT THIS POINT...BUT HAVE RAIN OR SNOW SHOWER WORDING IN EASTERN
UPPER MICHIGAN THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z SATURDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 124 PM EDT FRI OCT 24 2014

LOOKS LIKE THE MOISTURE THAT HAS BEEN PRODUCING IFR CIGS WEST OF
I-75 IS BEGINNING TO MOVE EAST OF I-75. THERE ARE SOME THIN SPOTS
IN EASTERN WISCONSIN. THE TREND AND THE MODELS WOULD SUGGEST THAT
THE IFR CIGS WILL REMAIN OVER THE TAF SITES UNTIL THIS EVENING.
THEN THE THIN SPOTS IN WISCONSIN WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION.
HOWEVER, THE THIN SPOTS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE TO THE EAST, AND
MORE MOISTURE WILL MOVE IN TO PRODUCE MORE IFR CIGS OVERNIGHT.
ONCE THE COLD FRONT IS THROUGH, THE REGION WILL BEGIN TO DRY OUT
IN THE EARLY AFTERNOON.

&&

.MARINE...
ISSUED AT 351 PM EDT FRI OCT 24 2014

WINDS OVERNIGHT WILL INCREASE ON LAKE MICHIGAN AS THE
PRESSURE GRADIENT BEGINS TO TIGHTEN UP AHEAD OF THE SFC AND COLD
FRONT THAT WILL MOVE THROUGH MICHIGAN ON MONDAY. WINDS ALONG THE
LAKE MICHIGAN SHORELINE IN NW LOWER IS EXPECTED TO GUST TO 25 KNOTS
AFTER 06Z, AND WAVES ARE EXPECTED TO BUILD TO SMALL CRAFT HEIGHTS (3
TO 5 FEET) BY SATURDAY MORNING. DURING THE DAY ON SATURDAY THE WINDS
WILL VEER TO THE NW AND INCREASE TO SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA GUSTS.
EVENTUALLY, BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON, THE NW WINDS WILL INCREASE ON
LAKE HURON AS WELL, ESPECIALLY ALONG THE AREA FROM THE MACKINAC
BRIDGE TO NORTH POINT. THE WINDS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH SATURDAY
NIGHT UNTIL THE SFC HIGH BUILDS INTO LAKE MICHIGAN AROUND 12Z
SUNDAY. WINDS ARE EXPECTED TO DIMINISH THROUGH THE MORNING, AND THE
WAVES SUBSIDE BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON.
