AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GAYLORD MI
241 AM EDT SUN OCT 18 2015

.NEAR TERM...(TODAY THROUGH TONIGHT)
ISSUED AT 241 AM EDT SUN OCT 18 2015

HIGH IMPACT WEATHER POTENTIAL...NONE.

OUR WEEKEND BOUT WITH WINTER LOOKS TO FADE AWAY OVER THE NEXT 24
HOURS. ONE (PRESUMABLY) FINAL BATCH OF REASONABLY VIGOROUS LAKE
EFFECT PRECIP IS MOVING ACROSS CENTRAL UPPER MI. PESKY SHSN HAVE
ALSO LIKELY DROPPED 2-3 INCHES OF SNOW IN EASTERN PRESQUE ISLE
CO. HIGH PRESSURE NOW IN WI/IL WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST...AND
WILL BE CROSSING NORTHERN MI THIS AFTERNOON. WARM/DRY ADVECTION
AND SHARPLY ANTICYCLONIC FLOW WILL ERODE PRECIP AND CLOUD COVER AS
WE GET DEEPER INTO THE DAY. WARM ADVECTION WILL REALLY START TO
GET CRANKING TONIGHT AS THE HIGH SLIDES OFF TO THE SE.

TODAY...850MB THERMAL TROF WILL BE MOVING OFF TO EAST AFTER 12Z.
AFTER STARTING OUT IN THE -7 TO -10C RANGE IN THE PRE-DAWN
HOURS...850MB TEMPS WILL ACTUALLY EDGE ABOVE 0C NEAR AND W OF TVC BY
EARLY EVENING. POPS WILL CERTAINLY STILL NEED TO BE HIGH AT THE
VERY START OF THE MORNING IN THE SNOWBELTS...THOUGH ANY ADDITIONAL
ACCUMS WILL BE QUITE MEAGER. SHSN WILL ERODE THRU THE MORNING AND
EARLY AFTERNOON...DON/T ANTICIPATE ANYTHING LEFT AFTER 3-4PM.
CLOUD COVER WILL BE A BIT MORE STUBBORN...ESPECIALLY IN EASTERN
UPPER AT THE END OF WHAT WILL BE A LONG SW FETCH OFF OF LAKE MI BY
THE END OF THE DAY. HOWEVER...MOST LOCALES WILL SEE LESS IN THE
WAY OF CLOUD COVER AS WE MOVE THRU THE DAY.

MAX TEMPS WILL BE IN THE 40S.

TONIGHT...PRESSURE GRADIENT TIGHTENS AND 1000-850MB SW FLOW
INCREASES DRAMATICALLY. 850MB WSW WINDS WILL BE 40-50KT BY LATE IN
THE OVERNIGHT. 850MB TEMPS WILL SURGE IN RESPONSE...AND BY DAYBREAK
WILL RANGE FROM 5C EAST TO 10C WEST...SOME 15C WARMER THAN 24 HOURS
PREVIOUS. CONSIDERABLE ASCENT WILL ACCOMPANY THIS WARM ADVECTION...
BUT OUR INITIAL AIRMASS IS QUITE DRY. WHERE ASCENT IS MOST
FOCUSED...NORTH OF A WARM FRONT STRETCHED OUT ACROSS UPPER
MI...THICKER LAYERED CLOUDS AND PERHAPS SOME PRECIP WILL GET GOING
BY DAYBREAK. THIS DOESN/T LOOK TO SERIOUSLY IMPACT NORTHERN
MI...OUTSIDE OF AN INCREASE IN MID/HIGH CLOUDS...ESPECIALLY IN
EASTERN UPPER.

TEMPS WILL DROP BACK INTO THE 30S THIS EVENING. READINGS WILL
STABILIZE OVERNIGHT WITH THE INCREASING WINDS AND WARM ADVECTION.
NEAR LAKE MI...TEMPS WILL SEE A CONSIDERABLE RISE DURING THE
OVERNIGHT...POPPING BACK INTO THE 40S.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(MONDAY THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 241 AM EDT SUN OCT 18 2015

...MUCH MILDER WEATHER ON THE HORIZON...

ANTICIPATED HIGH IMPACT WEATHER POTENTIAL: GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS ON
MONDAY AND ASSOCIATED GALE CONCERNS ON NORTHERN LAKE MICHIGAN
AND PARTS OF NORTHERN LAKE HURON.

PATTERN SYNOPSIS/ANTICIPATED EVOLUTION: BIG CHANGES TO A MUCH MILDER
WEATHER REGIME HEADING INTO THIS WORK WEEK...MADE SO BY THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A SPLIT MID/UPPER LEVEL FLOW PATTERN AND A NORTHWARD
RETREAT OF THE NORTHERN STREAM. DEVELOPMENT OF ONE RATHER IMPRESSIVE
PRESSURE GRADIENT DURING THE APEX OF THIS CHANGE WILL RESULT IN A
VERY WINDY MONDAY...LIKELY DOING A NICE FINISHING TOUCH TO THE FALL
COLOR SEASON. STILL MONITORING SOME LIGHT RAIN POTENTIAL AS A
VIGOROUS WAVE PASSES BY TO OUR NORTH LATER MONDAY/MONDAY
NIGHT...DRIVING A LESS THAN IMPRESSIVE COLD FRONT SOUTH INTO OUR
AREA IN THE PROCESS.

PRIMARY FORECAST CONCERNS/CHALLENGES: GUSTY WINDS MONDAY.
TEMPERATURE TRENDS AND RAIN CHANCES THROUGH THE PERIOD.

DETAILS: BIG STORY FOR MONDAY WILL BE VERY GUSTY SOUTHWEST WINDS AS
STRONG PRESSURE GRADIENT LAYS OUT ACROSS THE STATE ON BACKSIDE OF
DEPARTING SURFACE HIGH. DESPITE SHALLOW MIXING LAYER...LOW LEVEL JET
ON THE TOP OF THAT MIXED LAYER PUSHES 40 KNOTS DURING THE MORNING
AND EARLY AFTERNOON. BUFKIT MOMENTUM TRANSFER SHOWS A GOOD
PERCENTAGE OF THIS MIXING TO THE SURFACE...EASILY SUPPORTING
WIDESPREAD WIND GUSTS OF 30 TO 40+ MPH...HIGHEST NEAR AND OVER THE
BIG WATERS OF LAKE MICHIGAN. STRONGEST WINDS LOOK TO OCCUR THROUGH
THE MORNING INTO MID AFTERNOON. THESE WINDS WILL ALSO USHER IN A
MUCH MILDER AIRMASS...WITH TEMPERATURES A GOOD 10 TO 15 DEGREES
WARMER THAN TODAY...AND AT LEAST A FEW DEGREES ABOVE SPECIFIC NORMAL
VALUES. CLOUDS WILL THICKEN THROUGH THE DAY AS TOP-DOWN SATURATION
CONTINUES AHEAD OF APPROACHING COLD FRONT. SUBTLE MID LEVEL WAVE AND
DEEP ENOUGH SATURATION MAY BE ABLE TO SQUEEZE OUT A FEW LIGHT RAIN
SHOWERS...PARTICULARLY DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS.

DESPITE LOSS OF ITS PARENT SYSTEM WELL TO THE NORTHEAST...FRONT
LOOKS TO HAVE ENOUGH INERTIA TO SLOWLY SLIDE SOUTH ACROSS OUR AREA
MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. THE THREAT FOR A FEW SHOWERS WILL
ACCOMPANY ITS PASSAGE MONDAY NIGHT...WITH GROWING EVIDENCE ATTENDANT
MOISTURE SURGE WILL BE REMOVED TO OUR EAST TUESDAY...AGREEING WITH
THE INHERITED DRY FORECAST. HIGH PRESSURE NOSING IN FROM THE NORTH
WILL LIKELY RESULT IN QUITE THE SUNNY DAY FOR THE STRAITS AND POINTS
NORTH TUESDAY...WITH PARTLY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES FOR AREAS FURTHER
SOUTH. STILL MILD TUESDAY...WITH A SIGNIFICANT LACK OF ANY REAL COLD
AIR BEHIND THE FRONTAL PASSAGE.

WHILE VAST MAJORITY OF WESTERN ENERGY GETS LEFT BEHIND IN THE DESERT
SOUTHWEST...COMBINATION OF VIGOROUS WAVE RACING ACROSS CANADA AND
MORE SUBTLE ENERGY ROTATING OUT OF THE WEST SHOULD HELP DRIVE WEAK
LOW PRESSURE ALONG STALLED GREAT LAKES FRONT LATER TUESDAY
NIGHT/WEDNESDAY. THIS WILL BRING ADDITIONAL RAIN CHANCES TUESDAY
NIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)
ISSUED AT 241 AM EDT SUN OCT 18 2015

LONG TERM (WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)...SHOWER THREAT CONTINUES
WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT...WITH GROWING GUIDANCE SUPPORT FOR
INCREASING HEIGHTS AND INCOMING SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE TO BRING A
RETURN TO DRY CONDITIONS THURSDAY AND FRIDAY. NEXT WAVE AND
ATTENDANT COLD FRONT MAKES A RUN AT OUR AREA TO START THE
WEEKEND...ALTHOUGH TIMING FAR FROM CERTAIN AT THIS EARLY JUNCTURE.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z SUNDAY NIGHT)
