PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

For your protection move to an interior room on the lowest floor of a
building.

This is an EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION with tornado like wind
speeds expected. Mobile homes and high profile vehicles are
especially susceptible to winds of this magnitude and may be
overturned. For your protection move to an interior room on the
lowest floor of a building. These storms have the potential to cause
serious injury and significant property damage.

Continuous cloud to ground lightning is occurring with these storms.
Move indoors immediately. Lightning is one of nature's leading
killers. Remember, if you can hear thunder, you are close enough to
be struck by lightning.

Torrential rainfall is occurring with these storms, and may lead to
flash flooding. Do not drive your vehicle through flooded roadways.

LATEST UPDATE...
Update

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 330 AM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020

- Severe Thunderstorms This Afternoon

- Cooler End of the Week, But Hazardous Beach Conditons Into Thursday

&&

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1112 AM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020

The thunderstorms are moving across the I-94 area, west of Jackson
as I write this. The storms will continue to develop into a solid
line of storms that will reach the eastern sections by mid
afternoon. Strong winds are the greatest threat with these storms.
There is strong low level moisture transport, focused on the I-69
area early this afternoon. the low level jet axis by mid afternoon
will be just east of US-131 and there will be speed convergence
as the core of the low level jet at 4 pm will be south of our CWA.
Add to that a strong upper jet crossing the area with unusually
strong upper level wave, it's clear there is a significant severe
storm threat today.

&&

.DISCUSSION...(Today through next Tuesday)
Issued at 330 AM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020

-Severe Thunderstorms This Afternoon-

As the remnants of Cristobal continues to move northwards into
Ontario, an negatively tilted trough with a compact vorticity max
will shift northeastward out of the central US into the Great
Lakes region. At the surface, a trailing cold front associated
with the larger scale trough will sweep eastward across the state
this afternoon and evening.

Ahead of this trailing cold front which will act as our focus for
thunderstorm activity, deep layer shear will increase to over 50
knots as a mid level speed max of 70 to 80 knots noses into the
state. Simultaneously, daytime heating/destabilization will
increase MLCAPE values towards 2000 J/kg. A mixed storm mode can
be expected, with discrete cells to start at initiation, filling
in to become a line with bowing segments as it progresses into the
central part of the state.

All that said, storms are expected to initiate between Noon-2 PM
this afternoon in far southwest lower MI, then progress east into
the late afternoon and evening becoming increasingly more
widespread, especially east of US-131. Our primary concern for
these storms will be damaging winds, especially with line
segments, but large hail and even a few tornadoes will be
possible.

-Cooler End of the Week, But Hazardous Swim Conditons Into Thursday-

Into Thursday, light showers will wrap around the western flank of
the trailing low pressure system as breezy winds shift westerly.
This will bring cooler and less humid air to end the week.
High temperature will be near 10 to 15 degrees below normal by
Friday and Saturday, with expected highs in the mid to upper 60s
range.

While general weather should be fairly quiet, beach conditions will
be very hazardous to swimmers today and Thursday. Wave heights
will peak towards 8 feet overnight Wednesday into Thursday, then
will gradually subside into Thursday afternoon.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Thursday morning)
Issued at 718 AM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020

Some areas of MVFR and isolated IFR can be expected through the
afternoon in thunderstorms. Large hail and wind gusts over 50
knots are possible with some of the storms. The greatest threat
will be from LAN to JXN from 18Z to 21Z.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 330 AM EDT Wed Jun 10 2020

There will be a lull in winds this morning, then sustained winds
will increase with gusts reaching gales by this evening on the
backside of the storm system this afternoon. This will build wave
heights towards the 8 feet range before winds gradually diminish
Thursday afternoon as a surface low departs.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...
Issued at 330 AM EDT Tue Jun 9 2020

Following rainfall amounts of around 0.5 to local amounts up to 1.0
inch Tuesday afternoon and evening primarily across the Muskegon
and western Grand Basins, an additional 0.5 to 1.0 inch of
rainfall will be possible this afternoon and evening especially
across southern and easter Lower Michigan. Any impactful flooding
is still expected to be fairly localized, and minimal impacts are
expected for larger rivers/streams as they should be able to
handle an inch of rain. We will however want to be careful to
monitor any possible training of convection that may result in
increased flooding impacts.

...STRONG THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOPING THIS MORNING...

At 930 AM EDT, strong to severe thunderstorms were developing in
northeast Illinois and northern Indiana. These storms were moving
northeast at 45 mph.

The storms will move into Southwest Lower Michigan after 10 AM.
Scattered clusters of thunderstorms are expected to develop across
much of Lower Michigan during the day.

Damaging wind gusts over 60 mph, falling trees, and power outages
are the greatest concern today. Isolated large hail greater than an
inch in diameter is possible. A tornado is also possible. Cloud to
ground lightning strikes are a danger in any thunderstorm.

The storms today will develop and move quickly. Stay close to
shelter. When thunder roars, go indoors. Be aware of large trees
that could fall onto powerlines and homes. Prepare for the
possibility of a power outage. Have more than one way to receive
warnings from the National Weather Service.
