.PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED 341 AM EST TUE DEC 30 2014

SHORT TERM... TODAY AND TONIGHT

SURFACE RIDGING TUCKED BENEATH CONFLUENT MID LEVEL FLOW WILL SUSTAIN
A FAIRLY DEEP DRY AND STABLE PROFILE OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.  CLOUD
TRENDS REMAIN THE BIGGEST PEST TO THIS OTHERWISE BENIGN WEATHER
FORECAST.  SOME SOUTHEASTWARD EXPANSION OF THE EXISTING MODEST LAKE
SUPERIOR/NORTHERN LAKE HURON MOISTURE PLUME NOW NOTED WORKING INTO
THE TRI-CITIES/THUMB...PROMPTED BY RENEWED AND INCREASING COLD AIR
ADVECTION.  THIS PROCESS MAY ALLOW FOR FURTHER EXPANSION ACROSS SE
MICHIGAN...BUT WILL BE WORKING AGAINST A HEALTHY EXISTING DRY LAYER.
WITH THIS IN MIND...WILL SIMPLY LEAN TOWARD SOME PARTIAL COVERAGE
WITH POINTS TOWARD THE SOUTH LIKELY TO SEE A HIGHER DEGREE OF SUN
TODAY.  THE STRENGTH OF THE ADVECTIVE PROCESS WILL CERTAINLY CUT
INTO THE TEMPERATURE RESPONSE TODAY.  HIGHS REMAIN PROJECTED TO
ARRIVE IN THE LOWER AND MIDDLE 20S.

ELONGATED SHORTWAVE WORKING THROUGH THE MEAN NORTHERN TROUGH WILL
LIFT THROUGH TONIGHT.  MEAGER MOISTURE CONTINUES TO SUGGEST LITTLE
RESPONSE ASIDE FROM A BRIEF UPTICK IN MID CLOUD WITH THIS FEATURE /A
PASSING FLURRY NORTH?/.  LOWS TONIGHT 10 TO 15 DEGREE RANGE...A FEW
SINGLE DIGIT READINGS IN THE COLDEST LOCALES. THIS WILL BRING WIND
CHILL READINGS BELOW ZERO FOR A PERIOD DURING THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS.

LONG TERM... WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY

EXTREME POSITIVE TILT TO THE UPPER LEVEL JET STREAM WILL UNDERGO
CHANGES THROUGH MID WEEK AS THE NEXT STRONG JET MAX SURGING SE
THROUGH CENTRAL CANADA PINCHES OFF THE BASE OF THE TROUGH INTO A
CLOSED LOW. THIS WILL SET UP A CONFLUENT PATTERN OVER THE GREAT
LAKES WITH STRONG SFC RIDGING...1050MB HIGH...DROPPING INTO THE
CENTRAL PLAINS AND THEN EASTWARD TOWARD THE ATLANTIC COAST BY THE
END OF THE WEEK. THE TWO MAIN FORECAST POINTS FOR THE WEEK ARE THE
SURGES OF ARCTIC AIR KEEPING COOL TEMPS MORE OF THE NORM AND ALSO A
POTENTIAL SYSTEM LIFTING INTO/NEAR THE REGION THIS WEEKEND.

FOR THE MID WEEK PERIOD...THE BAROCLINIC ZONE STILL RESIDES TO OUR
SOUTH WITH A HEALTHY COLD POOL STILL WORKING THROUGH LOWER MI.
TEMPERATURES AT 925/500MB WILL FALL TO AROUND -16C/-35C BY WEDNESDAY
MORNING WITH A SLOW CLIMB UPWARD FROM THEN TIL LATE THURSDAY. AFTER
THE POTENTIALLY STRONG SYSTEM SAT/SUN...ANOTHER SURGE OF ARCTIC AIR
WILL FILTER INTO THE REGION RESULTING IN BELOW NORMAL TEMPS...HIGHS
ONLY 20-25F...TO START THE NEW WEEK.

THE MAIN FOCUS IS ON THE POTENTIAL WEEKEND SYSTEM. AS THEY DID WITH
THE CHRISTMAS EVE STORM...MODELS ARE CONTINUING TO WAVER AND
DISAGREE WITH EACH OTHER BY HUNDREDS OF MILES WITH THE STORM TRACK.
HAVING SAID THAT...THE NEW ECMWF RUN HAS MADE A SIGNIFICANT JUMP
NORTHWARD WITH THE STORM TRACK WHICH WOULD MAKE FOR A MORE
INTERESTING SCENARIO FOR SE MI. REASON BEING IT BRINGS IN DEEPER
NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH WHICH WOULD PHASE THE SYSTEMS SOONER AND
FARTHER WEST. GFS AND GFS PARALLEL STILL ADVERTISE SIMILAR TRACKS
BUT DIFFER BY 6-12 HOURS IN TIMING. THEN THERES THE CANADIAN WHICH
TAKES A TRACK MUCH FARTHER WEST. SO WILL CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT THE
SATURDAY NIGHT AND SUNDAY PERIODS FOR BEST SHOTS AT PRECIP FROM THE
SYSTEM. PTYPES MAY BE A BIT MESSY WITH THE SYSTEM AS THERMAL
PROFILES ARE SUGGESTING WARMING IN THE LOW/MID LEVELS AS THE WARM
CONVEYOR BELT NOSES INTO SOUTHERN MI. WILL KEEP IT SIMPLE WITH THE
RAIN/SNOW MIX FOR SATURDAY AT THE ONSET CHANGING TO ALL SNOW AS THE
SYSTEM QUICKLY SLIDES EAST.

AN ADDITIONAL FORECAST NOTE...THERE MAY BE A CLIPPER DIVING THROUGH
NORTHERN MI ON THURSDAY NIGHT/FRIDAY WHICH COULD REACH INTO THE
SAGINAW VALLEY. HAVE MINOR ACCUMULATIONS AND CHANCE POPS FOR THE
PERIOD TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS ALTHOUGH CONFIDENCE IS LOW AS THE TRACK
WILL DEPEND ON THE STRENGTH OF THE INCOMING NORTHERN STREAM
TROUGH...SO IT MAY TRY TO STAY NORTH.

MARINE...

COLD AND UNSTABLE ARCTIC AIR WILL RESIDE OVER THE LAKES IN THE
COMING DAYS LEADING TO ELEVATED WINDS AND WAVES. ATTENTION FALLS ON
WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS AN APPROACHING WAVE DIVING THROUGH
SOUTHERN CANADA WILL INCREASE THE PRESSURE GRADIENT ALLOWING WINDS
TO INCREASE FURTHER AS THEY BACK TO THE SOUTHWEST. THIS MAY RESULT
IN WINDS REACHING GALE FORCE THROUGH THE PERIOD. CENTRAL LAKE HURON
MAY SEE THE HIGHEST WIND SPEEDS REACH HIGH END GALES APPROACHING 45
KNOTS. A GALE WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FOR ALL LAKE HURON MARINE
ZONES.
