Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Gaylord MI
337 PM EST Fri Dec 30 2016

.NEAR TERM...(Tonight and Saturday)
Issued at 337 PM EST Fri Dec 30 2016

...Alberta clipper to bring more snow to northern Michigan...

High Impact Weather Potential: Widespread accumulating snow tonight
into Saturday.

Pattern Synopsis/Forecast: Large scale pattern features broad long
wave troughing encompassing much of North America...with a short
wave trough moving off the eastern seaboard and flat short wave
ridging over the upper midwest.  Additional short wave energy over
southwest Canada was digging southward and splitting...with one
piece of energy moving into southern Saskatchewan.  This short wave
trough will continue to track southeast into the upper Midwest
tonight and eventually across the Great lakes Saturday...in turn
pushing an Alberta clipper across northern Michigan.

Early afternoon surface analysis shows lake-induced troughing lying
roughly west-east across the Upper Peninsula...and extending east
across northern Lake Huron to Lake Ontario.  Narrow high pressure
ridge runs north-south just to the east of the Mississippi River...
while farther upstream the aforementioned Alberta clipper was over
southeast Saskatchewan and heading toward a broad area of 4mb/3h
pressure falls from the eastern Dakotas to northeast Kansas. This
low is forecast to deepen a bit and roll across the forecast area at
some point Saturday.  Snow showers continue across much of northern
Lower/eastern Upper Michigan at mid afternoon...showing some signs of
weakening...while a band of snow driven by isentropic ascent was
spreading east across northern Minnesota.

Primary Forecast Concerns: Snow amounts with the approaching clipper
system tonight into Saturday is the primary forecast issue. Upstream
snow band expected to spread into northwest Lower probably in the
01z-03z time frame...then expand east across the remainder of the
forecast area through midnight.  As the surface low approaches and
convergence increases over far northern portions of Lake Michigan/
Lake Huron...could see some lake enhancement of snowfall especially
into far southeast Upper and into Drummond Island late tonight and
into Saturday morning.  Not much instability given ongoing warm
advection but there is definitely a signal for enhanced QPF during
the first half of Saturday over far southeast Upper.  Some mid level
dry slotting indicated into northern Lower by late morning...so it's
possible that precipitation may taper off to a period of freezing
drizzle.  As winds come back around to a westerly direction expect
to see the lake response kick back in...perhaps accompanied by a
brief heavier band of snow along a surface trough hanging back
through the Straits during late afternoon.

As for snow amounts for this event...expect snow ratios to be a
little lower than those from our recent lake effect event with
warmer temperatures (more on the order of 12:1 to 18:1)...varying
from north to south (lower south).  Currently have a swath of 4-7
inches of snowfall along-north of M-72 with locally 8+ inches around
Drummond Island/Detour Village through Saturday afternoon. South of
M-72 amounts drop off into the 1-4 inch range.  Given those snow
amounts above...will crank up another Winter Weather Advisory for
counties along/north of M-72 starting this evening with variable
ending times Saturday given anticipated dry slot evolution.  Ending
times for Upper Michigan portion of the advisory will also be
variable between MQT counties (which will be ending earlier) and APX
counties (which we will run the headline through the afternoon given
an anticipated later ending time to snowfall).  Snow amounts may
reach warning criteria over far southeast Chippewa county/eastern
Mackinac county.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Saturday night through Monday)
Issued at 337 PM EST Fri Dec 30 2016

...Lake snow ending Sunday morning; then warmer with rain and
freezing rain possible Monday night...

Primary Forecast Concerns...Warming temperatures Monday in advance
of an approaching system in the Plains, and the potential for a
wintry mix and rain across northern Michigan.

Pattern Synopsis/Forecast...It will be a rather inactive period
across the northern lakes, especially when compared to more recent
events. A weakening upper trough and clipper, which would have
moved into the Great Lakes early Saturday, will quickly exit east of
the state Sunday morning. This will allow an area of high pressure,
and nearly zonal flow aloft, to settle into the Great Lakes Sunday
afternoon. This pattern will ultimately bring an end to the
extremely wintry and snowy period seen across the Great Lakes during
past 72 hours.

Lake induced snow showers lingering within the Lake Michigan
snowbelts Saturday evening, will diminish quickly early Sunday
morning as mid lvl temps warm to -8c and sfc-925mb winds turn from
northwest to southwest. Otherwise expect dry conditions over much
nrn Michigan Sunday, as a large area of high pressure remains
anchored over the mid Atlantic. Temperatures will be mild to start
the new year, in the mid 30s, as 850mb temps increase to arnd -2c on
Sunday. Expect dry weather to continue into Monday morning, though
the chance of pcpn increases Monday afternoon and evening, as a
system organizing in the Plains lifts toward the Great Lakes. Pcpn
type will be the biggest concern Monday, as temperatures quickly
warm in advance of the approaching Plains system. 850mb temps around
-2c early Monday, increase to around 0c north of the Straits, to
near +4c near Houghton Lake by Monday evening. Model soundings
vertical temperature profiles across northern Michigan, are
conducive to freezing rain between 18z monday and 00z tuesday, as
mid and upper levels warm quickly in advance of approaching system.
Warm air advection pushes into ern Upper and northwest Lower between
18z and 21z Monday, and closer to 00z Tuesday for the southeast
portions of the cwa near Saginaw Bay. Model sounding show temps
warming to between +3c and +4c over the wrn cwa in an elevated warm
layer nearly 6kft deep. However lingering weak southeast dry flow at
the surface, will keep sfc temperatures slow to warm above freezing
during the onset of pcpn, especially over the higher terrain.

Overall will continue with current forecast trends of lake snows
ending early sunday and then dry into Early Monday. Will increase
pops over the wrn cwa Monday afternoon and mention at least some
freezing rain early, mainly over the higher terrain. Pcpn will be
slowest to begin over the ern lakes and saginaw bay region Monday
afternoon, and should warm sufficiently enough for an all rain at
the onset of the event monday evening.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Friday)
Issued at 337 PM EST Fri Dec 30 2016

High Impact Weather Potential: Rain is looking more likely early in
the week. Depending on surface temperatures, freezing rain could be
a concern. Significant accumulating snow possible mid to late week.

Continue to see decent agreement for a robust system to arrive
sometime in the Monday night/early Tuesday timeframe. With warm
advection through the day Monday, the antecedent airmass is fairly
warm so the additional WAA ahead of the low is producing thermal
profiles supportive of mostly rain during the day for a large
portion of the forecast area, with temperatures in the 40s not out
of the question. We will have to see how surface temperatures
respond as the time gets closer, but there could be a concern for
freezing rain. We are not overly cold now, and temperatures are
fairly moderate leading into Tuesday so we may luck out.

As we get into mid-week, a surge of cold H8 air with temps in the
negative teens to twenties will filter in behind the departing
system. We could see a couple rounds of significant accumulating
lake effect with this. Model soundings continue to show inversion
heights AOA 10kft as early as Wednesday with lake induced CAPE in
the 600-800 J/Kg range. Initially NW flow areas will be favored,
with a switch to more westerly flow. With decent fetch over open
portions of Green Bay in addition to Lake Michigan, snowfall totals
could be enhanced for the western flow snow belts like Antrim,
Charlevoix, Emmet,and Cheboygan as we go into the late week. It is
of course dependent on where, when, and if winds get locked in, but
significant accumulations are not out of the questions at this
point.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Saturday afternoon)
Issued at 115 PM EST Fri Dec 30 2016

Lake induced snow showers will be winding down later this
afternoon...to be replaced by widespread warm advection driven
snowfall moving into this evening. IFR conditions likely tonight
into early Saturday morning in falling snow.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 337 PM EST Fri Dec 30 2016

Perpetual winter small craft advisories will continue right on
through the weekend for most nearshore zones.  Winds will diminish
briefly this evening as surface ridge axis moves through...then
increase again overnight from the south/southeast.  Winds will vary
Saturday as a surface low crosses the Straits vicinity...then swing
around to more of a consistently westerly component by Saturday
night.
