LATEST UPDATE...
Synopsis/Discussion/Marine

.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 328 AM EDT Sat Oct 31 2020

- Very windy and cold Sunday

- Lake enhanced snow showers Sunday

- Cold early week then moderating by mid to late week

&&

.DISCUSSION...(Today through next Friday)
Issued at 328 AM EDT Sat Oct 31 2020

-- Very windy and cold Sunday --

Latest ecmwf ensembles and the 00Z deterministic ecmwf
as well as an overall consensus of latest computer model
guidance for wind speeds in the mixing layer continue to
show it will become very windy Sunday.  We expect wind gusts
to reach 40 to 45 mph with higher gusts to around 55 mph
possible near the Lake MI shoreline. Temps will remain nearly
steady or fall slowly through the 30s in the strong nw flow caa.
Scattered power outages will be possible.

-- Lake enhanced snow showers Sunday --

H8 temps will fall to -8 to -10 C yielding delta t/s in the
upper teens resulting in very strong lake induced instability.
Scattered lake effect snow showers will develop through the day
and will mix with some rain showers mainly closer to relatively
milder Lake MI. The combination of cold temps and scattered snow
showers will likely cause some slick spots to develop on area roads.

Any snow accumulations should be rather light (under an inch)
as potential for any accumulations is limited by relatively mild
pavement/ground temps. In addition the very strong winds will
limited airmass residence time over the lake.

-- Cold early week then moderating by mid to late week --

Temps will remain cold Monday before a significant moderating
trend occurs for mid to late week as the upper level pattern
becomes zonal. This and southwesterly flow will allow high temps
by Tuesday to reach the low to mid 50's and then the upper 50's
to lower 60's by Wednesday through late week. The mild wx will
continue through next weekend with high temps potentially
reaching well into the 60's by then.

&&

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Saturday night)
Issued at 212 AM EDT Sat Oct 31 2020

Stratocumulus is finally beginning to break up across Southwest
Lower Michigan at 06z. By 12z, we are expecting mainly clear
skies. The ceilings that do remain are VFR, so limited/no impacts
to aviation. Mainly clear skies are expected today. Clouds will
return this evening along and ahead of a cold front. Ceilings will
drop from 10,000ft to around 4,000ft between 00z and 06z.

Winds will be south at 10-20 knots today. Winds will then ramp up
considerably this evening reaching the 12-30 knot range from the
south-southwest. Low level wind shear will be present with a core
of 40-50 knot southwest winds at 2,000ft.

&&

.MARINE...
Issued at 328 AM EDT Sat Oct 31 2020

A gale warning and lakeshore flood warning is in effect for the
entire nearshore from Sunday afternoon through early Monday. Winds
will already reach gale force by early to mid afternoon today. The
northwest gales and cold air advection Sunday will cause wave
heights to build to 10 to 14 feet. Some erosion of dunes and coastal
flooding is likely.
