the ice on area rivers steady. Unfortunately, we have high river

rapidly fluctuate. The following forecast is based on observed and
forecast 48 hour precipitation.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

A flood advisory means minor flooding is possible and rivers are
forecast to exceed bankfull. If you are in the advisory area, remain

services or law enforcement and request they pass this information on

LATEST UPDATE...
Update
.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 325 PM EST Tue Jan 10 2017
Very windy conditions will develop late this afternoon through
this evening which will likely result in scattered power outages.
Another low pressure system will bring a mix of rain snow and even
a little sleet and light freezing rain Wednesday afternoon through
Wednesday night into Thursday. Snow accumulations will be very
light. Tranquil weather will return Thursday night through Friday
as high pressure builds in.
&&
.UPDATE...
Issued at 921 PM EST Tue Jan 10 2017
No real changes needed to the forecast for tonight. Wind advisory
is working out nicely with many locations seeing wind gusts up to
around 55 mph or so with the passage and immediately behind the
cold front. The cold front has moved through most of the area,
having just moved through Jackson just before 02z. We will hold on
to it at least for a couple of more hours with wind gusts still up
enough. We may be able to cancel it before midnight if winds come
down enough.
Pcpn is holding on a bit behind the front, but is now in the
process of diminishing. We have seen some snow mixing in with
times, mainly near KGRR and areas west. The pcpn will diminish before
enough cold air comes in to produce any appreciable accumulations.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday night)
Issued at 325 PM EST Tue Jan 10 2017
Primary short term fcst concerns involve determining how windy it
will become late this aftn/tonight and assessment of potential
for mixed pcpn Wednesday afternoon through midday Thursday.
Windy conditions will develop late this afternoon through tonight
as the 988 mb low near Madison WI continues to intensify and move
ne. A polling of 00Z/12Z bufkit wind profiles and mixing w/height
suggests wind gusts will reach 50 to 55 mph across our fcst area
this evening. Latest HRRR higher res wind gust fcst guidance
suggests highest gusts to around 45 kts will occur over our
southern fcst area around to shortly after 00Z this evening.
Based on all the aforementioned data we see this as a high end
wind advisory event and will run the wind advisory from 5 pm this
afternoon through 3 am Wednesday. It seems that the peak wind
gusts will already occur during the early to mid evening hours.
This will likely result in scattered power outages and some downed
tree limbs. Thx for extensive coord on headline decisions
APX/IWX/DTX.
In addition given that several locations across our northern fcst
area have already received 5 to near 6 inches of snow and that
some mixed pcpn is still being reported across our northern
counties we will leave the winter wx advisory unchanged and let it
run it's course thru 7 pm for our northern two tiers. Even as
pcpn gradually transitions to liquid form hazardous travel
conditions will continue for several more hours up there.
The next low pressure system will cause mixed pcpn to develop
Wednesday afternoon. P-type will be rain near to south of I-96
and a mix of rain and wet snow is expected across our northern
fcst area.
Pcpn will continue Wednesday night and the rain/snow line will
slowly shift south overnight as thermal profiles slowly cool. A
brief period of sleet/very light freezing rain is also possible.
Pcpn will linger into Thursday before tapering off Thursday
afternoon. Any snow/sleet/fzra accums would be really light with
around an inch or less of snow mainly well north of I-96.
Tranquil wx will return late Thursday afternoon through Thursday
night as high pressure begins to build in from the northwest.
.LONG TERM...(Friday through Tuesday)
Issued at 325 PM EST Tue Jan 10 2017
Active weather pattern will continue into the weekend and
beyond...with mid level energy rotating across Canada and the Great
Lakes region and a closed low off developing off of the California
coast. The northern stream energy will be the primary driver of the
local weather...with a weaker impulse affecting the weather on
Saturday. The system off of the California coast will move east
over the weekend...and cause another precipitation event Monday and
Tuesday.
Precipitation type will be the main concern in the extended portions
of the forecast. Cold high pressure will be in place Friday through
the weekend. The weak wave that will pass through on Saturday
should produce light snow...but the fast movement of the system and
limited moisture should reduce the impacts of this precipitation.
The event early next week may start as a wintry mix...but the
majority of the precipitation looks to be liquid for this event.
Friday will be the coldest day...with highs from the middle teens in
north central Michigan...to the middle 20s in the I-94 corridor.
Temperatures warm a few degrees each day...with highs on Tuesday in
the upper 30s to near 40 degrees. Lows will range from the single
digits in north central Michigan to the middle teens south on
Saturday morning...warming to around freezing for Tuesday morning.
Thanks to LOT/APX/DTX/IWX for coordination/collaboration this
afternoon.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Wednesday evening)
Issued at 650 PM EST Tue Jan 10 2017
Main impacts to aviation interests this evening are initially the
strong winds and MVFR conditions. The front is pressing through
the area, being just east of KGRR and near KAZO at 2345Z. This
front will likely bring a wind shift to the WSW and the highest
wind gusts to around 45-48 knots.
The rain will diminish an hour or two after the front moves
through with CIGS and VSBYS coming up. Can not rule out some
showers changing over to a little light snow before ending by
around 05z. Winds will then steadily diminish after about 02z or
so.
We will see the CIGS go VFR around or just after 06z tonight, and
last through much of the day on Wed. Rain will move back in later
in the period with MVFR-IFR conditions likely returning by the
end of this fcst period.
&&
.MARINE...
Issued at 325 PM EST Tue Jan 10 2017
A gale warning is now in effect through 7 am Wednesday. Southerly
winds will continue to increase to 40 to 45 gales and veer to the
southwest and then west this evening. Gales will continue
overnight.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 1147 AM EST Tue Jan 10 2017
Various ice jams on area rivers continue to be monitored. Warmer
temperatures, rainfall, and snow melt will combine to elevate
river levels for the remainder of the week. It is uncertain if
the ice jams will release given these circumstances. Typically we
need temperatures closer to 50 degrees for a few days to break
them up, if the ice is thick enough. Currently the jam downstream
of Robinson Township appears to be holding but the readings at
Robinson have been unchanged in the last 3 days, with stable ice
covering the river. Added flow behind the jam may back up river
levels if the jam doesn't break up. A Flood Watch has been issued
given the uncertainty in how the river will respond over the next
few days, with the possibility that a rise above flood stage may
occur. Another jam on the Grand River has occurred near the Fish
Ladder at Grand Rapids, which is backing up flow a bit. Currently
this backwater has reached Comstock Park. No flooding is occurring
at this time though rises above bankfull may occur as rain and
snow melt add to the levels.
Other jams are likely occurring on the Flat River near Smyrna and
also the Looking Glass River near Eagle. Combined rainfall and
snow melt will add to these river stages and further rises above
bankfull are likely.
