Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Grand Rapids MI
105 PM EDT Sat Apr 8 2017

LATEST UPDATE...
Aviation

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 301 AM EDT Sat Apr 8 2017

Today will be sunny and warmer with highs around 60. Sunday and
Monday will be even warmer with highs around 70. Scattered
showers and thunderstorms are expected to move into the area late
Sunday and exit the area Tuesday morning. After this, most of the
coming week will feature seasonal temperatures with highs in the
mid 50s. There will be a chance for rain showers on Thursday but
this doesn't look like a wet system.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Today through Sunday night)
Issued at 301 AM EDT Sat Apr 8 2017

Models have been quite consistent with first bringing precipitation
into the area Sunday evening. Most recent guidance indicates
somewhat greater instability so have included a mention of thunder
for Sunday night. This lines up well with the recently issued SPC
Day 2 outlook.

Otherwise bumped today's forecast highs up a degree or two. No other
significant concerns.

.LONG TERM...(Monday through Friday)
Issued at 301 AM EDT Sat Apr 8 2017

It will be unseasonably mild Monday in a strong south to sw flow waa
regime. The low pressure system approaching from the west will bring
scattered showers and thunderstorms Monday into Monday evening.

Some strong to potentially severe convection is possible given
strong deep layer shear and weak to potentially moderate instability
along with increasing moisture and some lift from the approaching
low pressure system and cold front.

Potential for severe convection is largely contingent on how much
instability develops Monday. As of now a consensus of latest medium
range guidance suggests that sb cape values could reach around 1000-
1250 j/kg by Monday aftn/early eve.

Temperatures will return to near normal by Tuesday through mid to
late week after the very mild weather Monday. The next low pressure
system moving in from the west will bring more showers Wednesday
night into Thursday. A high pressure ridge building in from the
north will bring fair weather for Friday.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Sunday afternoon)
Issued at 105 PM EDT Sat Apr 8 2017

High pressure continued to dominate the weather across Lower Michigan
early this afternoon. A large area of cirrus was indicated over
Wisconsin and western sections of Upper Michigan...with a smaller
area of middle clouds over southern Wisconsin heading east. Models
capture the area of mid cloud moisture and move it to the northeast
through tonight. While the best moisture and lift will affect northern
Lower Michigan...will mention a few mid clouds at KMKG between 21Z
today and 03Z Sunday.

Bufkit data indicates upper level moisture encroaching on West Michigan
tonight...with lower level moisture increasing after 12Z Sunday.
Even so...expect VFR conditions to persist through the forecast period.

Wind shear will become an issue tonight as the next system
approaches. This is most noticeable at KMKG after 00Z Sunday.
Latest NAM/Canadian output shows large area of 40 to 50 knot
winds at 2kft AGL moving from west to east across West Michigan
between 00Z and 12Z Sunday. Will include wind shear remarks in the
18Z TAFs as a result.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 301 AM EDT Sat Apr 8 2017

Based on latest WW3 guidance, have issued a small craft advisory for
all but our southern two marine zones beginning this afternoon.
Wave growth will be particularly noticeable farther north around
the Sable Points later today due to their exposure to strengthening
southerly winds. Both winds and waves will remain elevated for
quite a while so we will keep the advisory in effect for the
duration of the forecast.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 250 PM EDT Fri Apr 7 2017

Minor river flooding is ongoing across Southwest Lower Michigan,
thanks to recent precipitation and a wet spring. The Grand River in
Comstock Park is the only site currently forecast to reach moderate
flood levels. This should occur Saturday evening and the river
should continue in moderate flood through Tuesday.

The area will be dry through Sunday. This will allow the rivers to
stabilize some. Additional rainfall early next week may exacerbate
the issues on the rivers.
