Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Marquette MI
1237 AM EST Sat Nov 26 2016

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday)
Issued at 347 PM EST FRI NOV 25 2016

Currently watching four shortwaves, one over the CWA, a stronger one
over W WI/N IL, one over the MN arrowhead, and the fourth in far SE
Saskatchewan. Currently have rain and snow (rain along the Great
Lakes shores and s-central and snow inland) over much of the CWA
associated with the first two. Another area of radar returns is
associated with the MN shortwave.

Expect NW-WNW wind lake effect/enhanced precip to increase tonight
as 850mb temps decrease to around -7C (lake temps around 7C) and the
two additional upstream shortwaves drop through. The precip will
diminish gradually on Sat. Expect most of the precip to be snow in
and a rain/snow mix along the Lake Superior shore. However, the DGZ
will dry out over portions of the W late tonight into Sat morning as
the precip begin diminishing over the W. As this occurs, there could
be a transition to drizzle/freezing drizzle for a few hours. Given
lows around freezing closer to the Great Lakes, do not expect
significant snowfall. Only expect a glazing of ice at the most as
the drizzle will occur as precip is coming to an end.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Friday)
Issued at 409 PM EST FRI NOV 25 2016

Over the next 7 days, positive height anomalies currently dominating
central and eastern Canada will drift n slightly and will cover
northern Canada to the ne Pacific by next Fri. This will occur in
response to Pacific energy shifting e and carving out a central
CONUS trof during the first half of next week. Trof should then
evolve to a positive tilt trof from se Canada to the sw CONUS by
late next week, underneath the aforementioned positive height
anomalies to the n. Ahead of the developing central CONUS trof,
southerly flow will push temps well above normal across the Upper
Great Lakes early next week. Temps will fall back closer to normal
during the latter part of the week as the trof drifts e, but will
remain above normal as the postitive height anomalies from the ne
Pacific across northern Canada prevent any arctic air from
developing or dropping s thru Canada and toward the CONUS. As for
pcpn over the next 7 days, the developing central CONUS trof will
bring a wet period early next week with all of the pcpn in the form
of rain. Pcpn will then transition to ocnl lighter snow mid thru
perhaps late week, though there will be some potential of lake
enhanced snow that may provide some accumulations. Looking farther
ahead beyond this 7 day fcst, CPC/NAEFS outlooks in the 8-14 day
period, out to Dec 9, indicate a high probability of above normal
temps continuing. Farther out, recent CFSv2 runs continue to show a
pattern change toward colder weather developing around mid Dec as
positive height anomalies that have dominated Canada for many weeks
give way to negative height anomalies. Given the last several days
of runs, the signal for a build up of arctic air at least in western
and central Canada is strengthening heading into the mid Dec time
frame. With regard to pcpn, CFS runs have fairly consistently
pointed toward an active Dec as well for the Upper Great Lakes.

Beginning Sat night/Sun, as sfc high pres ridge axis extending n-s
across the e half of Upper MI Sat evening exits to the e and strong
low pres emerges out over nw KS/Nebraska, low-level southeasterly
flow will develop thru Sun. Cloud cover will be the main fcst
challenge as se upslope flow off Lake MI at this time of year often
leads to low clouds. How much of the cloud cover scatters out on Sat
will also play a role. Would think that with the passing sfc high
pres ridge, there should be a period of partly cloudy to perhaps
clear skies for a time in many areas. This could in turn lead to
some fog/stratus development Sat night. Otherwise, will trend fcst
toward some increase in cloud cover on Sun, especially in the se
upslope flow favored areas. Lows Sat night should be mostly in the
20s, though if skies are clear for a while, some locations may
tumble into the teens. Highs on Sun will generally be in the lwr
40s.

Sun night thru Tue, aformentioned trof will be amplifying over the
center of the CONUS. 3 significant pieces of energy will be involved
with this trof, with the first 2 of concern for the forecast here.
The first, lifting thru the Plains, will lead to a deep sfc low
moving n into the eastern Dakotas/western MN Sun night/Mon. Strong s
to sw flow will transport abundant moisture northward, bringing
precipitable water up to 0.75 inches, 200-250pct of normal. Forcing
on the other hand is not especially strong, so while rain (no snow)
will spread n across the fcst area late Sun night/Mon, pcpn amounts
should be on the lighter side compared to what they could be. Second
piece of energy rounding the base of the amplifying central CONUS
trof will be of more interest. Whether or not a significant low pres
wave develops in response to the shortwave as some GFS/CMC ensembles
still show, there is agreement for stronger deep layer
forcing/isentropic ascent (compared to the late Sun night/Mon
period) to produce a heavier round of rainfall that will affect the
fcst area Mon night into early Tue morning, especially across the
central and eastern fcst area. Column will be too warm to support
any snow during this period of heavier pcpn. Passage of occluded
front to the n and ne Tue morning will then bring an end to the
steadier/heavier rain, but there may be a few -shra thru the day,
depending on degree of mid level drying. GFS is most aggressive with
mid level drying and suggests Tue will transition to dry weather,
especially central and e. Temps will be well above normal Sun night
thru Tue.

It appears that the 3rd piece of energy moving thru the trof will
lift ne on a track far enough to the e that it will have no affect
on the weather here. This will leave the fcst area under the
influence of mid/upper level trof and broadening/filling low pres
encompassing the Upper Mississippi Valley/Upper Great Lakes Wed into
Thu. With deep moisture and air mass gradually cooling to -3 to -5C,
expect some -shsn across the area with the potential of lake
enhanced snow off Lake Superior, dependent on location/movement of
sfc troffing across the Upper Lakes. Thu probably has the better chc
of shsn with some indication of sfc trof swinging across the area.
While snowfall near Lake Superior doesn't look significant at this
point, there will probably be at least some light accumulations.
Shsn/LES may linger thru Fri.

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Saturday night)
Issued at 1234 AM EST SAT NOV 26 2016

Mainly MVFR conditions will prevail through Saturday. However, a
longer period of VFR cigs is expected at SAW where the light
westerly flow has a larger downslope component. Some improvement to
VFR is possible by late afternoon into the evening as drier air moves
into the region.
&&

.MARINE...(For the 4 PM Lake Superior forecast issuance)
Issued at 347 PM EST FRI NOV 25 2016

Winds will be 25 kts or less through Sun with a weak pressure
gradient. Big changes come in late Sun night as SE winds ramp up to
35 kt gales by daybreak on Mon due as a strong low pressure system
moves from the Central Plains to the northern Plains and western MN.
SE gales to 40-45 kts are expected Mon into Tue morning especially
over central and eastern Lake Superior as the strong low slowly
moves toward the western Great Lakes.
