Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Gaylord MI
330 AM EST Wed Dec 14 2016

.NEAR TERM...(Today and Tonight)
Issued at 330 AM EST Wed Dec 14 2016

...Cold, blustery, and snowy...

High impact weather potential: significant lake effect snow,
blustery with blowing/drifting, low wind chills.

Quick summation of headlines: watch for Chippewa being replaced by
winter storm warning. Accums around a foot thru tonight near
Whitefish Bay, pushing 10 inches at the Sault. Advisory in
northern lower extended in time into late tonight, and expanded
southward into Missaukee/Wexford/Manistee. Accums thru tonight
2-4 near/south of TVC, 3-7 ne of TVC. WINds/blowing-drifting/wind
chills amplifying hazards.

Cold advection taking the briefest of breaks early this morning, as
low-level flow slightly backs ahead of the next cold front pushing
across Superior. But never fear, cold advection will be re-
established shortly after 12z. The passing front will veer our winds
westerly today, and wnw tonight. Various headlines already up for
snow/wind/temp concerns. Evaluating those is the main concern.

Today...upstream area of stratocu is evident on fog imagery over
northern WI, while cloud tops are cooling over Superior. These items
are indicative of a less-dry incoming airmass, and an incoming boost
in forcing this morning, respectively. Activity across far
northern lower MI has already trended more intense since sunset.
Expect some wavering in band location, as winds back wsw over the
next few hours, then veer w again by midday and almost wnw in the
afternoon. We don't quite veer enough today for Superior to
provide much assistance into northern lower. As we move into the
afternoon and 850mb temps reach -22/-23c, suspect snowfall rates
will diminish as the dgz shrinks and lowers. But 2-5 inch totals
will be common today over far northern lower MI, maxed out between
PLN and Mancelona. This is actually a slight a downward adjustment
to the previous snowfall forecast, but still more than enough to
justify the ongoing headline. Expect to coverage to increase over
the rest of nw lower MI, thanks to the moisture increase. 1-2
inches is expected near and s of Gd Trav Bay, in particular from
late morning onward.

For eastern upper, ongoing monster band is presently well to the
north, from just off of Copper Harbor to north of Montreal River
Ont. Flow veers a bit more northerly on Superior today, which will
bring this band down, albeit a bit slower than previously progged.
Still, it looks to get to Whitefish Pt at or just after 18z/1pm.
This marks the beginning of a period of considerable 1000-850mb
convergence in the Whitefish Bay area, lasting thru tonight, as a
sharp surface trof axis lingers back across the region. This also
leads to considerable variation in the 1000-850mb flow. However, the
Nam and Sref have localized 12hr QPF around half an inch for this
afternoon into tonight near Whitefish Bay, which can't help but get
your attention. This is impressive, even as snow-liquid ratios start
to decline into tonight, as the airmass gets so, so cold. Most
guidance keeps snow-liquid ratios closer to 20-1.

Max temps in the teens.

Tonight...lake effect and gusty winds continue. Chippewa Co will
be the main focus, especially near Whitefish Bay. The 1000-850mb
winds average wnw to nw, which opens up a lot of the county, but
with a lot of wavering thanks to the sharp trof in the vicinity.
In northern lower MI, coverage will wane somewhat overnight
(especially south of Gd Trav Bay) as drier air imposes itself
again.

Min temps single digits above zero.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Thursday through Friday)
Issued at 330 AM EST Wed Dec 14 2016

...One more LES day before a brief pause...

High Impact Weather Potential...Heavy lake effect snow on NW winds
in Chippewa County. There is potential for moderate to heavy snow in
NW Lower as well, but with the drying synoptic (850-700 mb layer)
moisture, it is less likely than in E Upper.

Something to keep in mind is that under the next system which will
start late Friday afternoon, and going into Friday night is that
moderate amounts are expected through 12z/Sat. so there is a bit of
concern that heavy amounts would be possible with the mainly
moderate amounts south of M-72.

Pattern Synopsis/Forecast...Starting out Thursday morning, the snow
will be over most of the region with the NW flow over NW Lower and E
Upper. The 850 mb temperatures are generally warming from the -20c
region to -18c by 00z. both in NW Lower and in E Upper. I'm a bit
concerned about NW Lower, as the numbers for the GFS and ECMWF are
still pretty close for both E Upper and NW Lower. While we have
light amounts for NW Lower, there is a decent chance for moderate to
heavy amounts, especially if the HiResW-ARW model is to be believed
as a strong convergence bands sets up for the Charlevoix-Otsego-
Antrim-Crawford area. GFS snow amounts hints at this too. NAM is
very dry, and much more WNW which would keep the snow amounts down.

However, it looks like the dry air does get into E Upper and N Lower
overnight, so that the snow should begin to diminish.

Friday, winds then turn to the SW and the next system begins to push
into the region by the end of the day. There is a chance for some SW
flow up Lake Michigan into E Upper. Again this is a concern as the
synoptic snow spreads over the region and enhances the amounts.
However, the winds begins turning south and then SE overnight as the
system looks to now have a track that is similar on the GFS and the
ECMWF, and would be all snow in NE Lower. Moderate to possibly heavy
amounts, are expected, but south of M-72 with the current set of
solutions.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Friday night through Tuesday)
Issued at 330 AM EST Wed Dec 14 2016

Extended (Saturday through Tuesday)...Saturday the low moves past
the region and we get back into the tail of the Polar vortex
rotating through the Upper Great Lakes. This will again drop very
chilly air back into the Great Lakes for Sunday, and LES. Monday the
winds turn back SW and W through the day and into Monday night.
Tuesday, much warmer 850 mb air moves into there region putting a
stop to the snow, especially with the dry air.

So for the Weekend into early next week, expect below normal
temperatures and LES snow off and on, before warming on Tuesday.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Wednesday night)
Issued at 1140 PM EST Tue Dec 13 2016

Ongoing westerly flow lake effect snow showers will become
enhanced late tonight and Wednesday as a strong cold front and a
reinforcing shot of arctic air sweeps thru Michigan. Far NW Lower
Michigan will see the most persistent and heaviest snowfall...with
conditions deteriorating to MVFR/IFR within heavier snow bands.
West winds will continue to gust to 15 to 25 kts overnight...
strengthening to 25 to 35 kts on Wednesday in the wake of the
cold front.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 330 AM EST Wed Dec 14 2016

Gusty westerly winds, starting the morning sw before veering w
today and nw tonight, with another cold front passing thru this
morning. Occasional gale force gusts will continue on most waters.
Very cold with a some icing concerns.
