AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND RAPIDS MI
330 AM EST TUE JAN 6 2015

LATEST UPDATE...
SYNOPSIS/SHORT TERM/LONG TERM

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 330 AM EST TUE JAN 6 2015

COLD WEATHER WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEK. OCCASIONAL
SNOW SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP THROUGH THE WEEK AS SEVERAL
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS MOVE THROUGH THE REGION IN CONJUNCTION WITH
LAKE EFFECT AND LAKE ENHANCED SNOWFALL.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(TODAY THROUGH THURSDAY)
ISSUED AT 330 AM EST TUE JAN 6 2015

THE CLIPPER SYSTEM WILL MOVE EAST OF THE LOWER GREAT LAKES REGION
THIS MORNING BUT SNOW SHOWERS WILL LINGER THROUGH THE DAY WITH H8
TEMPS DOWN IN THE -18 TO -20 C RANGE. ADDITIONAL SNOW
ACCUMULATIONS THIS MORNING AND AFTERNOON WILL RANGE FROM AN INCH
OR LESS NEAR TO EAST OF US-131 TO 1 TO 2 INCHES WEST OF US-131. THE
WINTER WX ADVISORY HEADLINE LOOKS EXCELLENT AND WILL REMAIN
UNCHANGED.

LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL BE ENHANCED BY A STRONG UPPER LEVEL SYSTEM
TONIGHT AND H8 TEMPS WILL PLUMMET TO AROUND -24 C BY LATE TONIGHT.
THEREFORE ACCUMULATING SNOW IS LIKELY MAINLY NEAR TO WEST OF US-131
AS LOW LEVEL WIND FIELDS VEER TO THE NW.

VERY HAZARDOUS TRAVEL CONDITIONS WILL LIKELY DEVELOP THIS EVENING
AND OVERNIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY ACROSS OUR LAKESHORE COUNTIES DUE TO
BANDS OF HEAVY LAKE EFFECT SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW THAT COULD CAUSE
VISIBILITIES TO DROP TO NEAR ZERO AT TIMES. STRONG OMEGAS ARE NOTED
IN 00Z GUIDANCE X-SECTIONS FOR AREAS NEAR THE LAKE MI SHORELINE
ALONG WITH DEEP LOW TO MID LEVEL MOISTURE. THE LAKE EFFECT SNOW
SHOWERS WILL CONTINUE WEDNESDAY WITH H8 TEMPS STILL WAY DOWN
AROUND -24 TO -26 C.

SNOW SHOWERS SHOULD TAPER OFF WEDNESDAY NIGHT AS H8 TEMPS MODERATE
SIGNIFICANTLY TO AROUND -14 TO -16 C BY 12Z THURSDAY AND DRIER AIR
ALSO MOVES IN. HOWEVER THE NEXT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM DROPPING DOWN
FROM THE NW WILL CAUSE SNOW TO REDEVELOP THURSDAY AFTERNOON.

.LONG TERM...(THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY)
ISSUED AT 330 AM EST TUE JAN 6 2015

MAIN FORECAST FOCUS IN THE LONG TERM IS ON A LAKE ENHANCED EVENT
FROM THURSDAY AFTERNOON INTO FRIDAY MIDDAY. DELTA T/S DURING THIS
EVENT WILL BE IN THE UPPER TEENS TO LOWER 20 C...SO SOLID
INSTABILITY IN PLACE. MOISTURE DEPTH WILL BE DEEP...OVER 10000FT AS
AN UPPER SHORTWAVE DRIVES SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE AREA. SYNOPTIC SCALE
LIFT VIA THE SHORTWAVE PUTS ALL THREE OF THE MAIN INGREDIENTS IN
PLACE FOR A HEALTHY EVENT NAMELY...MOISTURE...INSTABILITY AND LIFT.

LIMITING FACTORS ARE STRONG WIND SPEEDS AND A VERY MIGRATORY
MOVEMENT OF THE UPPER SHORTWAVE. THE SHORTWAVE MOVING THROUGH AT A
GOOD CLIP WILL ALSO SHIFT BANDS FROM A SOUTHWEST FLOW TO A NORTHWEST
FLOW THROUGH THE EVENT. THURSDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING SHOULD BE THE
TIME FRAME OF THE HEAVIEST SNOWS. OUTSIDE OF THE LAKE ENHANCED AREAS
THERE WILL BE SYNOPTIC SNOW AS WELL. THINKING 1-3 INCH AMOUNTS
INLAND AND 3-6 INCH TOTALS TOWARDS LAKE MICHIGAN. AMOUNTS MAY BE
LOCALLY HIGHER IN THE NORTHWEST CWA TOWARDS LUDINGTON...BALDWIN...
NEWAYGO...MUSKEGON AND GRAND HAVEN.

LAKE EFFECT SNOWS WILL CONTINUE IN THE WAKE OF THE EVENT MENTIONED
ABOVE FOR FRIDAY AFTERNOON INTO SATURDAY. FEEL WE ARE LOOKING AT
LAKE EFFECT SNOWS TAPERING OFF INTO THE WEEKEND HOWEVER. GIVEN
RIDGING IN PLACE AND MODERATING 850MB TEMPS THINK WE ARE MAINLY
LOOKING AT SOME SCATTERED SNOW SHOWERS OR FLURRIES OVER THE WEEKEND.
SIDED WITH THE WARMER AND MORE BENIGN LOOK OF THE ECMWF OVER THE
WEEKEND INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK.

TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN COLD FROM THURSDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY WITH
A MODERATING TREND EXPECTED LATE IN THE WEEKEND INTO NEXT WEEK.
HIGHS IN THE TEENS FRIDAY...WHICH WILL BE 15 OR SO DEGREES BELOW
NORMALS...WILL WARM INTO THE 20S FOR SUNDAY AND MONDAY.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 1158 PM EST MON JAN 5 2015

WIDESPREAD IFR VSBYS IN SNOW CAN BE EXPECTED THROUGH ABOUT 09Z
THEN IMPROVING TO MVFR FROM WEST TO EAST. HOWEVER SOME OCNL IFR
VSBYS MAY PERSIST AT MKG AND GRR THROUGH MID TO LATE MORNING
TUESDAY.

THE WINDS WILL INCREASE OUT OF THE WEST TUESDAY AFTERNOON TO
14-18 KTS WITH GUSTS OF 25-30 KTS. THIS MIGHT LEAD TO A FEW AREAS
OF BLOWING SNOW DEVELOPING.

OUTLOOK BEYOND 06Z WED... SIGNIFICANT LAKE EFFECT SNOW SHOWERS
WITH IFR TO LIFR VSBYS SHOULD DEVELOP AFTER 06Z WEDNESDAY IN A
BAND FROM MKG TO AZO.

&&

.MARINE...
ISSUED AT 310 PM EST MON JAN 5 2015

THE WIND WILL CONTINUE TO DECREASE INTO THE EVENING AS THE NEXT
STORM APPROACHES. THE WAVES WILL REMAIN HIGH AND THERE WILL BE
SOME FREEZING SPRAY AROUND. LATER TUESDAY WE WILL SEE THE WIND
SHIFT AND INCREASE DURING THE AFTERNOON.

CONFIDENCE IS BUILDING THAT WINDS WILL INCREASE TO GALE STRENGTH
TUESDAY NIGHT AS ANOTHER ARCTIC COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH AND
CONTINUE THROUGH WEDNESDAY. WE HAVE ISSUED A GALE WATCH FOR THIS
POSSIBILITY. ARCTIC AIR WILL REMAIN IN PLACE DURING THIS TIME SO WE
ISSUED A HEAVY FREEZING SPRAY WATCH TOO.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 117 PM EST MON JAN 5 2015

THE POTENTIAL FOR FREEZE UP ICE JAMS ON AREA RIVERS WILL CONTINUE
INTO THE WEEKEND. THE GRAND RIVER NEAR ROBINSON TOWNSHIP WAS 80
PERCENT COVERED WITH FLOWING ICE THIS MORNING. AVERAGE AIR
TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE WELL BELOW 20 DEGREES... WITH HIGHS
ONLY IN THE TEENS THROUGH THE WEEK. THIS WILL AID IN ICE
FORMATION.

&&

.GRR WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
MI...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY UNTIL NOON EST TODAY FOR MIZ037-038-043-
     044-050-056-057-064-065-071-072.
