NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GRAND RAPIDS MI
539 PM EDT SUN AUG 2 2015

LATEST UPDATE...
MESOSCALE DISCUSSION

.MESOSCALE DISCUSSION...
ISSUED AT 539 PM EDT SUN AUG 2 2015

WE CONTINUE TO WATCH THE EVOLUTION OF THE LINE OF STORMS TAKING
SHAPE JUST NORTH OF THE CWFA. THE LINE THEN EXTENDS WESTWARD INTO
WISCONSIN. THE LINE HAS BEEN SOMEWHAT STATIONARY OVER THE LAST
HOUR OR SO...BUT SHOULD BEGIN TO PROGRESS TO THE SE OVER THE NEXT
HOUR OR SO.

WE ARE MORE FOCUSED ON THE CONVECTION ACROSS WI...AS THIS IS WHAT
WOULD TEND TO MOVE INTO THE AREA. SHORT TERM HIGH RES MODELS
INDICATE ADDITIONAL STORMS WILL EXPAND TO THE WEST ALONG THE
INCOMING FRONT/SHORT WAVE. THIS IS COMING INTO 3000-5000 J/KG OF
MU CAPE WITH LITTLE TO NO CIN...WHICH SHOULD HELP IT TO EXPAND
THERE AND THEN MOVE INTO OUR AREA THIS EVENING.

LLJ REMAINS OVERHEAD...HELPING 0-3KM SHEAR VALUES TO REMAIN
FAVORABLE FOR ORGANIZATION AND HELPING TO KEEP THE THREAT FOR
DAMAGING WINDS. SOME MORE ISOLATED CELLS HAVE BEEN PRODUCING LARGE
HAIL INCLUDING BASEBALL SIZED HAIL IN OGEMAW COUNTY. THE
IMPRESSIVE INSTABILITY INCLUDES THICK CAPE IN THE HAIL GENERATION
LAYER. SOME OF THE STORMS HAVE ALSO BEEN TRYING TO
ROTATE...INDICATIVE OF THE STRONG LOW LEVEL SHEAR VALUES.

&&

.SYNOPSIS...
ISSUED AT 302 PM EDT SUN AUG 2 2015

A STRONG COLD FRONT WILL BE MOVING THROUGH THE AREA THIS EVENING AND
INTO THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BECOME MORE
WIDESPREAD BY MID EVENING AHEAD OF THE FRONT...AND WILL PUSH SOUTH
AND EAST THROUGH THE ENTIRE AREA THROUGH MIDNIGHT. THESE STORMS WILL
HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME SEVERE WITH DAMAGING WINDS THE BIGGEST
THREAT. SOME HAIL...HEAVY RAIN...AND AN ISOLATED TORNADO ARE ALL
POSSIBLE.

COOLER AIR WILL FILTER INTO THE AREA DURING THE DAY ON MONDAY. A FEW
LIGHT RAIN SHOWERS WILL BE POSSIBLE UP NORTH INTO TUESDAY...BEFORE
CONDITIONS DRY OUT AND REMAIN COOL FOR MUCH OF THE REMAINDER OF THE
WEEK.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT)
ISSUED AT 302 PM EDT SUN AUG 2 2015

OUR MAIN FOCUS REMAINS ON THE POTENTIAL SEVERE WX EVENT CENTERED ON
THIS EVENING ACROSS THE CWFA. OUR THINKING HAS NOT REALLY CHANGED AT
ALL AS WE CONTINUE TO EXPECT A SQUALL LINE TO DEVELOP BY MID
EVENING AND PUSH THROUGH THE AREA.

THE CLUSTERS OF STORMS THAT WERE FLIRTING WITH THE NRN PORTION OF
THE CWFA EARLIER HAVE GENERALLY MOVED AWAY FROM THE AREA...BECOMING
A BIGGER MCS ACROSS NE LOWER AND LAKE HURON. WE ARE NOW SEEING THE
MORE WIDESPREAD ACTIVITY MOVE AWAY FOR NOW...WITH SOME ISOLATED
CELLS STARTING TO POP. WE EXPECT THIS TO CONTINUE TO BE THE CASE
THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON. WE CAN NOT RULE OUT ONE OF
THESE BECOMING STRONG TO SEVERE GIVEN THE WIND FIELDS.

THE MAIN EVENT STILL LOOKS TO BE A SQUALL LINE THAT IS EXPECTED TO
TAKE SHAPE FROM NRN LOWER BACK THROUGH WI WITHIN THE NEXT FEW HOURS.
THE COLD FRONT AND LEADING EDGE OF THE SHORT WAVE ARE NOW MOVING
INTO NC WI WITH SOME ACTIVITY GOING ON IN THE U.P.. THIS FRONT IS
CURRENTLY ONLY MOVING INTO WEAK INSTABILITY DUE TO THAT AREA HAVING
BEEN WORKED OVER BY CONVECTION EARLIER. AS IT MOVES SOUTH JUST A
LITTLE MORE...IT WILL START RUNNING INTO OVER 4000 J/KG OF CAPE WITH
T/TD OF 90S/MID 60S. THIS SHOULD HELP FIRE STORMS OFF NICELY PER THE
MODEL CONSENSUS OF SHORT RANGE GUIDANCE.

WE EXPECT A LINE OF STORMS TO MOVE INTO THE NW CORNER OF THE CWFA
AROUND 6-7 PM...DROP DOWN INTO THE GRR AREA AROUND 9-10 PM...AND
THEN EXIT THE CWFA AROUND OR JUST AFTER MIDNIGHT. ML CAPES REMAIN UP
AROUND 2-3K J/KG...AND MU CAPES ARE OVER 4K FT. THESE WILL LIKELY
DROP OFF SOME AFTER PEAK HEATING...BUT WE WILL KEEP QUITE A BIT OF
THE INSTABILITY WITH THE LLJ CONTINUING TO FEED PLENTY OF UNSTABLE
CONDITIONS UPSTREAM. THE LAKE COULD HAMPER THE STORMS SOME...BUT
WITH STORMS EXPECTED TO DEVELOP IN WI...THAT SHOULD MOVE IN HERE
WITH THE FLOW IN PLACE.

DAMAGING WINDS REMAIN THE MAIN THREAT WITH AROUND 50 KNOTS OF WIND
IN THE 2-4K LEVELS AND THE STRONG 0-3KM SHEAR THAT WILL BE IN PLACE.
LARGE HAIL WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THICK CAPE IN THE -10 TO -30C
LAYER. THE STRONG SHEAR AND VEERING WINDS WILL ALSO HELP THE CAUSE
FOR SOME ISOLATED TORNADOES SPINNING UP ON THE LINE. PWATS IN THE
1.5 TO 1.75 RANGE WILL ALLOW FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAINS.

ONCE THE STORMS MOVE OUT AFTER MIDNIGHT...THE REMAINDER OF THE NIGHT
SHOULD BE FAIRLY QUIET. WE WILL SEE THE MAIN TROUGH DROP DOWN TOWARD
MORNING WHICH WILL BRING A LOW CHC OF A FEW SHOWERS. THIS WILL BE
ACROSS THE ENTIRE CWFA ON MON...BEFORE RETREATING TO THE NORTH FOR
TUE AS THE TROUGH LIFTS NORTH SOME. THE TROUGH SHOULD LIFT ENTIRELY
OUT OF THE AREA THEN BY TUE NIGHT...ALLOWING FOR A DRY PERIOD.

.LONG TERM...(WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY)
ISSUED AT 302 PM EDT SUN AUG 2 2015

TEMPERATURES WILL BE SEASONABLY COOL WITH MAX TEMPS IN THE 70S AND
MIN TEMPS MAINLY IN THE 50S. A SFC HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE WILL BRING
DRY WEATHER WEDNESDAY AND WEDNESDAY NIGHT. WE CONTINUE TO SEE
PROSPECTS FOR PRECIPITATION THURSDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT TO THE
NORTH OF A PASSING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM. THIS WILL BE FOLLOWED BY
GENERALLY DRY CONDITIONS INTO THE WEEKEND.

&&

.AVIATION...(FOR THE 18Z TAFS THROUGH 18Z MONDAY AFTERNOON)
ISSUED AT 140 PM EDT SUN AUG 2 2015

LITTLE CHANGE TO THE PREVIOUS FORECAST. STILL EXPECT STRONG
CONVECTIVE GUSTS FROM THE NORTHWEST WITH THE LINE OF STORMS MOVING
INTO THE AREA TONIGHT. BEHIND THIS LINE...WINDS MAY BRIEFLY RETURN TO
SOUTHWESTERLY IN DIRECTION AND POSSIBLY EVEN SOUTHEAST. THIS
SHOULD BE FOLLOWED BY A SHIFT TO THE NORTHWEST BEHIND THE ACTUAL
COLD FRONT AROUND OR SHORTLY AFTER 06Z.

&&

.MARINE...
ISSUED AT 302 PM EDT SUN AUG 2 2015

WINDS AND WAVES ARE COMING UP AS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON...PRODUCING
HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS FOR SWIMMERS AND BOATERS OUT ON THE BIG LAKE.
WE WILL CONTINUE THE HEADLINES AS IS FOR THIS FCST PERIOD. THERE IS
A CHANCE THAT THESE WILL NEED TO BE EXTENDED IN TIME THROUGH MON
WITH THE COLDER AIR COMING IN.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
ISSUED AT 302 PM EDT SUN AUG 2 2015

THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY EVENING WILL GIVE US OUR BEST CHANCE OF NEEDED
RAIN THROUGH AT LEAST THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEK. WHERE
THUNDERSTORMS EXIST... AN INCH OF RAIN COULD FALL IN QUICK ORDER.
PONDING OF WATER ON STREETS MAY OCCUR... AS WELL AS RISES ON SMALLER
STREAMS AND RIVERS. STORMS SHOULD BE PROGRESSIVE ENOUGH FOR THE
EXCESSIVE RAINFALL THREAT TO BE LIMITED. LARGER RIVER SYSTEMS WILL
LIKELY BE ABLE TO HANDLE THE INFLUX OF WATER WITHOUT INCIDENT...
GIVEN THE DRY GROUND AND CURRENT STREAMFLOWS CLOSER TO
CLIMATOLOGICAL NORMALS.
