.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 312 PM EDT Wed Apr 5 2017
A late season winter storm will move across Lower Michigan tonight
and Thursday bringing a mix of rain, accumulating snow, and strong
winds. Travel will be affected as roads become snow covered and
slippery. But winter won't last long as temperatures are expected to
climb through the weekend to near 70 Sunday and Monday. The snow
will melt and may result in localized flooding.
&&
.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Friday night)
Issued at 312 PM EDT Wed Apr 5 2017
The going forecast is more or less on track. The Winter Storm Watch
was upgraded to Winter Storm Warnings and Winter Weather Advisories.
This is still a very complex storm in which the forecast could go a
number of different directions. Some of the ingredients are more
certain than others. For example, this system will continue to be
very moist and dynamic. Strong moisture inflow from the Gulf will
supply the storm with plenty of juice, especially as it goes
negative tilt. Condensation pressure deficits are also near 0mb for
a long duration and pressure advection remains robust across Lower
Michigan. The storm is progd to continue to deepen as it moves east
of the cwa, so confidence for strong winds remains pretty high.
The thermal profile is the key to this system. The early hours of
the storm...tonight...we very well may see a mix of rain and snow
before enough cold air gets entrained to complete the transition to
snow late tonight. The exact timing of this will be key to how much
snow accumulates. Based on current regional radar and model trends,
it appears as though the deformation band will set up over our
northeast cwa. Since this area will also see an earlier transition
to snow, highest accumulations should be in the northeast 4
counties; we upgraded Osceola, Clare, Mecosta, and Isabella counties
to a Winter Storm Warning where 4 to 8 inches of show should fall.
All other counties were placed in a Winter Weather Advisory. Both
headlines begin at 06z and run through 03z Friday.
Given the deepness of the storm, we should see quite a bit of wind
Thursday. Wind gusts to 45 mph are very possible and when combined
with falling snow will create hazardous driving conditions. The
other element to this system is that this will be a wet snow. Wet
snows make for extremely slippery driving conditions.
The system will wind down Thursday evening as the low moves east and
dry weather is expected Friday as high pressure moves overhead.
Thursday is going be rather chilly with highs in the mid 30s and
winds gusting to 40-45 mph. The snow won't stick around long,
however, since temperatures will climb into the upper 40s Friday
afternoon.
.LONG TERM...(Saturday through Wednesday)
Issued at 312 PM EDT Wed Apr 5 2017
After a dry Saturday, both Sunday and Monday afternoon will be very
warm with highs in the 70s very attainable. There is a low
probabilities of rain showers Sunday with only the Canadian global
advertising this among the recent deterministic models.
Monday continues to look favorable for thunderstorms in the
afternoon and evening. Upper dynamics, instability, and
magnitude/orientation of deep layer shear vectors are not conducive
to highly organized convection. Most likely we will see a fairly
homogeneous line of showers and thunderstorms in a marginal boundary-
parallel shear environment. This system looks a little more
progressive than before so precipitation amounts should be modest.
Currently looking dry with more seasonal temperatures Tuesday and
Wednesday.
&&
.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Thursday evening)
Issued at 802 PM EDT Wed Apr 5 2017
MVFR continues over much of the region early this evening with
unrestricted vsbys in light rain, and ceilings between 1K and 3K.
Expect ceilings will slowly lower with a diurnal trend into the
IFR range by 03-04Z. This IFR will likely continue overnight into
much of Thursday.
Rain will change over to snow, the challenge remains as to when
and where. A core of colder air slips south down the length of
the western peninsula. So it figures that GRR, AZO and BTL will
see the initial change over around 11Z Thu. West and east of
these areas the snow should be slower to change over, so have 16Z
for MKG and LAN, and finally 19Z for JXN. Once the snow starts it
will be IFR or LIFR, with the exception of MKG which may only see
light snow and mainly MVFR vsbys. The IFR in snow is likely to
continue much of the daylight hours, with some improvement into
the evening.
Winds will be significant throughout the next 24 hours. NE winds
will continue to gust 25-30 knots overnight, gradually becoming
more northerly. Then as the cold air wraps in, NNW gusts to 40-45
knots will occur by late morning Thu and lasting much of the day.

.MARINE...
Issued at 312 PM EDT Wed Apr 5 2017
The current forecast is on track. Winds will increase tonight to
gale force and gales will continue through Thursday night before
decreasing to around 30 knots Friday.
&&
.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 312 PM EDT Wed Apr 5 2017
There have been a significant increase in the amount of river
advisories and warnings with the latest river forecasts issued
Wednesday morning. River levels continue to run high from the recent
rains over much of the area from the last couple of weeks. We are
expecting generally 1 to 1.5 inches of water in the rain and snow
through Thursday night. Any snow that accumulates will melt quickly
by Saturday and run off into the rivers. This additional rain and
melted snow will boost river levels even more.
We will see a reprieve in the rainfall for Friday through Sunday,
that will allow the rivers to stabilize some. Additional rainfall
early next week will only exacerbate the issues on the rivers.

This may well result in localized flooding in typically flood prone areas. The rain is expected to change to snow after midnight north of Grand Rapids. By sunrise all areas north and west of I-69 should be seeing some snow. Significant accumulations are expected north of Grand Rapids by then, some areas may already have over 3 inches. .DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...Thursday through Tuesday Thursday will be a snowy and windy day north and west of I-69. Storm total snowfall may approach 12 inches on some places north of Grand Rapids, by evening. The strong winds and snow falling heavy at times may cause numerous travel issues north and west of I-69. There is a chance of strong thunderstorms later Monday into Tuesday morning. Locally heavy rain is possible. Due to all of the precipitation that has already fallen recently and what we expect over today into tomorrow, then again early next week localized flooding is possible near small streams and rivers and also in normal flood prone areas. .SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
