Area forecast discussion, Apr 18, 6:37 AM CDT, 2 hours 56 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Duluth MN 637 AM CDT Sun Apr 18 2021 .DISCUSSION...(Today through Saturday) Issued at 343 AM CDT Sun Apr 18 2021 A cold front moving through the Northland today and tonight is the focus. Models are in good agreement with an elongated area of low pressure moving over the Northland today, and its associated cold front following behind. A dry airmass ahead of the front will keep east central Minnesota into northwest Wisconsin dry this morning. Behind the front, rain is forecast initially as the thermal profile and surface temps are warm. Some snow will will begin to mix in late in the morning, especially along and north of the Iron Range. This is supported by the SREF and GEFS ensembles and model soundings, as colder air begins to overtake the thermal profile. The models have sped this surface low/cold front arrival and track over the area a bit faster from yesterday. There is also a bit more QPF. The surface low moves over Lake Superior tonight while the cold front departs northwest Wisconsin. Rain over northwest Wisconsin initially, mixes with, then changes to all snow through the night. Mainly a rain/snow mix in northeast Minnesota early, then becoming all snow. Some light accumulation is possible, with the Arrowhead seeing the best opportunity for accumulation. The surface low moves east of the area on Monday. Vigorous cold air advection behind the low, accompanied by an upper low that closes off, will bring enough forcing to generate some snow showers/flurries from the Arrowhead into northwest Wisconsin. High pressure settles over the Northland Monday night and Tuesday. Meanwhile, a winter type upper level pattern is forecast to affect the region with shots of cold air dropping into the area from the Arctic. This will keep temps below normal. A quasi-zonal flow upper pattern sets up Wednesday through Friday. Some sprinkles are possible over the eastern edge of the Wisconsin forecast area Wednesday afternoon as the flow over Lake Superior supports a mention. Global model differences are very large with the handling of a trof affecting the area Friday through Saturday. The NBM does a decent job of trying to resolve the differences and have some pops and a light rain mention, mixing with or changing to light snow Friday night, then back to rain Saturday morning before ending with approaching high pressure. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z TAFS through 12Z Monday morning) Issued at 637 AM CDT Sun Apr 18 2021 The cold front is still forecast to moves past the terminals today into this evening, from north to south. VFR at the start of the forecast ahead of the front. As the front arrives, then passes each terminal, look for gusty west southwest winds, turning northwest behind the front. Light rain, mixed at times with snow, changing to all snow for a bit, will be found behind the front. MVFR cigs will accompany the precipitation. The precipitation will end from north to south tonight, with the MVFR cigs prevailing, although some pockets of VFR will occur. && .MARINE... Issued at 343 AM CDT Sun Apr 18 2021 A surface low and a cold front will affect the nearshore waters this afternoon and tonight. As the front approaches and then passes, gusty winds will develop and affect all areas. These gusts may create hazardous conditions for small craft tonight and Monday. Some gale force gusts may occur along the north shore of Lake Superior late tonight. There is some question in the start time of these gusty winds and subsequent high waves and will let the next shift fine tune the winds and waves before issuing any Small Craft Advisories or Gale Warnings, as well as when to end them. Winds and waves calm down Monday through Monday night. && .PRELIMINARY POINT TEMPS/POPS...
