What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Gaylord, MI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at May 27, 10:34 AM EDT, 29 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, May 27, 10:34 AM EDT, 29 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Gaylord MI 1034 AM EDT Thu May 27 2021 .UPDATE... Issued at 1034 AM EDT Thu May 27 2021 Morning composite analysis reveals a well defined mid level circulation over the Dakotas with a smaller wave along the Nebraska/Iowa border. Elongated surface low is over the Nebraska/Iowa border extending SW to the Texas panhandle. Plume of moisture stretches of the Texas Gulf coast into the central Plains ahead of the low with a batch of precip from Missouri northward into the Midwest and wrapping back into the Dakotas along a well defined deformation axis with the main circulation. Across our area, a mix of sun and clouds this morning with some mid cloud cover and hints of lake induced streamers off Superior and Huron. Upstream wave expected to slowly migrate into eastern South Dakota while sfc low develops into central Iowa by early evening. Attending deformation axis looking to nose into northern and central Lower Michigan during the course of the afternoon spreading some light rainfall into the region, although wedge of drier low level air below 5K feet noted on forecast soundings may hang on through the afternoon keeping precip potential/QPF on the low side. But current radar trends and guidance suggest precip possibilities will impact areas along/south of M-32 through the afternoon. Going forecast reflects that idea with little changes planned at the moment. Otherwise, increasing cloud cover will be the rule particularly across Lower Michigan with a bit more filtered sun/high clouds impacting the U.P. A cool day with below normal temperatures, and temps running a good 10 to 15 degrees below normal for late May. && .NEAR TERM...(Today through Tonight) Issued at 231 AM EDT Thu May 27 2021 ...Frosty early morning...followed by increasing chances of showers this afternoon and tonight... High Impact Weather Potential...Areas of frost will continue to impact much of Eastern Upper and Northern Lower Michigan early this morning. Pattern Synopsis/Forecast...Cold front has pushed SE of Michigan... with strong CAA ongoing across the Western Great Lakes region in it's wake. Skies are completely clear across our entire CWA and winds have become light/variable...allowing temps to fall into the 30s. After an unseasonably cold and frost start to our morning...clouds will begin to increase from SW to NE across our CWA as the NE edge of the moisture shield associated with developing low pressure over the Central Plains starts to overspread Michigan. Still appears increasing shower chances will hold off until this afternoon...with showers likely thru tonight as the low center skirts south of Michigan. Near term models differ on just how far north sufficiently deep moisture will ride into our CWA. Latest RAP limits POPs to south of M-32...while the latest NAM suggest POPS will lift all the way to the Straits. ECMWF shows a general compromise of the two aformentioned solutions. Will lean toward the middle ground ECMWF... pushing precip chances a bit further north but falling short of the Straits area. Next issue is (believe it or not) precip type. Some models are suggesting the possibility of some wet snow mixing in with the rain showers across some inland areas of Northern Lower Michigan (mainly around GOV and HTL). NAM BUFR soundings are nearly completely below freezing for a few hours late tonight. Not totally convinced of this occurrence as of yet and will therefore hold off on adding a mix of snow to the late night forecast for now. No doubt our temps will remain unseasonably cool for the next 24 hours (at least). High temps this afternoon will only warm into the 50s...with overnight lows tonight cooling back into the upper 30s to around 40 degrees. Do not expect frost will be a big issue tonight given rain chances as well as strengthen wind speeds along the northern periphery of the low tracking just south of Michigan. && .SHORT TERM...(Friday through Saturday) Issued at 231 AM EDT Thu May 27 2021 High Impact Weather Potential: Low Pattern Synopsis: A closed upper-level low will progress across the Midwest on Friday as an associated surface cyclone treks across the Ohio River Valley and into Appalachia. Amplified upper-level ridging will move overhead in behind this closed low over the weekend. Subsidence provided aloft at the inflection point of these features will help build surface high pressure across the Great Lakes over the weekend. Forecast/Details: Precip may be ongoing at the start of the forecast period Friday morning, especially across the southern half of the CWA. This precip is expected to quickly depart, however, and is discussed in greater depth in the near term portion. As this precip associated with the aformentioned surface cyclone continues to move east through the day, skies are expected to clear from north to south across the area as high pressure begins to settle in for the weekend. Prolonged NE winds are expected through the period which will help bring cooler, dry air into northern Michigan and should prevent additional precip from forming. High temperatures are anticipated to be rather cool again on Friday as most will struggle to reach into the mid 50s during the afternoon. Highs look to warm up some on Saturday as temperatures should climb above 60 again. While temperatures look to dip down into the mid 30s Friday night and possibly again Saturday night, the very dry low-level airmass in place will create relatively large temperature/dewpoint spreads, thus limiting the development of frost across most areas despite clear skies overnight and relatively lighter winds. .LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Wednesday) Issued at 231 AM EDT Thu May 27 2021 High Impact Weather Potential: Low A closed upper-level low centered over the Ohio River Valley will progress into New England by Monday as amplified ridging continues to slide across the upper Great Lakes/southern Canada. Surface high pressure should largely hold firm across the region through the first half of next week, helping to keep precip chances on the low side overall. Troughing looks to move across the Great Lakes in the late Monday/Tuesday timeframe, but meager return flow from the Gulf of Mexico should result in less than ideal low-level moisture being in place to support any more substantial rain/thunderstorm chances heading into the back half of the week. While warm advection into the Great Lakes won't be impressive, temperatures do look to climb back to seasonal averages near 70 by the start of next week. A few days may be on the cooler side should cloud cover and precip chances materialize. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Friday morning) Issued at 645 AM EDT Thu May 27 2021 Low pressure will track just south of Michigan today and tonight. Northern edge of deep moisture associated with this system will ride thru Northern Lower Michigan...producing scattered to numerous showers beginning this afternoon and continuing thru tonight. VFR conditions today will deteriorate to MVFR tonight as showers arrive and increase in coverage. Northerly winds will become NE at around 10 kts...with some increase in winds speeds occurring tonight as the low center slides south of Michigan. && .MARINE... Issued at 231 AM EDT Thu May 27 2021 Winds and waves will remain below SCA criteria today into early evening...but will strengthen later tonight into Friday as our pressure gradient tightens along the northern periphery of low pressure tracking just south of Michigan. Chances of showers will increase by this afternoon and will continue thru tonight for much of Northern Lake Michigan and Northern Lake Huron north of the low track. && .APX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
