Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Detroit/Pontiac MI
353 AM EST Fri Nov 18 2016

.DISCUSSION...

Negative tilt shortwave lifting from the central plains into the
upper midwest will continue to promote decent cyclogenesis with
surface low pressure deepening to around 995 mb once it reaches the
eastern shores of Lake Superior tonight. In advance of this system,
one more very mild day can be expected over southeastern Michigan
today within strengthening southerly flow within the warm sector.
High temperatures will climb well into the 60s area-wide with some
locations reaching 70 degrees by mid afternoon. These readings are
in line with daily record high temperatures across the area.

These mild temperatures will persist into mid evening before a
strong cold front wraps around the aforementioned low pressure and
through the forecast area between 05z-09z and leads to rapidly
falling temperatures overnight. Rain showers will spread into the
area in advance of this cold front and persist into the overnight
hours. A mid level dry slot will punch into area behind this front
by early Saturday morning. While this may temporarily squelch rain
shower chances, wrap around moisture associate with the low pressure
center will quickly pivot into area on Saturday and lead to a good
chance of showers, some of which will be mixed with snow showers by
late in the day as cold air deepens across the area in wake of upper
level through passage during the mid/late afternoon.

Any remaining precipitation Saturday night will change to all snow
showers with time as secondary surge of cold air surges through the
area. However, precipitation by this time will be on the wane as
this storm system digs east of the area and begins to re-develop
over upstate New York and the New England states. West to northwest
flow in the wake of first cold front will bring gusty winds to 30
mph or more on Saturday with secondary surge of cold air Saturday
night bringing northwesterly winds of 20 to 25 mph with wind gusts
approaching 40 mph at times within area of strong downward momentum.

This system will bring progressively colder readings to the forecast
area over the weekend with temperatures moving very little Saturday,
holding in the lower to mid 40s behind lead cold front. The coldest
period will then some on Sunday with high temperatures struggling
into the mid/upper 30s.

Even though this is a rather deep storm system, the overall upper
level flow regime remains very progressive heading into next week.
Once this storm system shifts east of the area and eventually lifts
into the Canadian maritime, several additional shortwaves will cross
the central/northern CONUS during this time frame. While these next
shortwaves have some connection to colder air over Canada, they are
much more influenced by Pacific air as they translate largely west
to east across the CONUS. This will lead to as steady moderation in
temperatures next week with high temperatures back into the 40s from
midweek on through the remainder of the forecast period.

&&

.MARINE...

Moderate to fresh southerly wind will continue into this afternoon.
Wind gusts will be limited during this time, and will allow the
Small Craft Advisory to expire early this morning along the eastern
shore of the Thumb. Southwest winds will then become gusty behind an
initial cold front late tonight, especially over the southern half
of Lake Huron. Will be upgrading the Gale Watch to a Gale Warning
overnight for gusty southwest flow up Saginaw Bay into the middle of
Lake Huron.

Much stronger wind gusts will then overspread the area from Saturday
into Saturday night as a secondary surge of cold air funnels through
the area and winds veer from west to northwest. While the timing of
the onset of gusty winds vary to some extent on Saturday, will
expand Gale Warnings to all marine zones by 12z Saturday morning.
From late Saturday into Sunday, localized gusts to storm force winds
will be possible over central Lake Huron while maximum wave heights
easily exceed 20 feet over the central and southern open waters.

&&

.PREV DISCUSSION...
Issued at 1150 PM EST Thu Nov 17 2016

AVIATION...

Warm southerly flow will sustain a period of dry and stable low
level conditions through Friday afternoon.  This will maintain VFR
conditions will plenty of clear sky below 10k ft.  Sufficiently
diminished near surface winds will allow for an extended period of
low level wind shear through the morning period, as south-southwest
wind across the 1500-2000 ft level remain at 40 to 45 knots.  This
gradient will preclude witnessing a fog issue again this morning.
Ensuing daytime mixing will bring gusty southerly winds by early
Friday afternoon. Gusts into the 20 to 25 knot range. Thickening and
lowering cloud deck advancing out ahead of a strong cold front
enters the picture by late afternoon/evening.  Window for showers in
low VFR/MVFR with the frontal passage, currently timed to lift
through 03-06z.  Firm wind shift to west-southwest immediately
behind this boundary, reintroducing gusty conditions Friday night.

//DTW Threshold Probabilities...

* Medium in ceiling falling below 5000 ft Friday evening.
