Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Detroit/Pontiac MI
325 PM EDT Sun Sep 12 2021

.DISCUSSION...

Short Term/Previous AFD Update:

A low amplitude trough/PV anomaly will travel across Lake Michigan
and into central lower Michigan through the late afternoon and
evening hours within a strong corridor of westerlies in the low to
mid-levels. Better forcing along and in the vicinity of the frontal
boundary with the arrival of the trough will increase shower and
thunderstorm potential along and especially north of M59. Convection
has already initiated across Lake Michigan and now resides across
western Michigan, with current trajectory looking to push the
initial round of thunderstorms across the Bay/Midland area after
20Z.

Impressive effective bulk shear will be in place during the period
of better convective potential with values aoa 60 knots across Flint
and north into the Tri-Cities and Thumb, with MUCAPE holding between
500-1000 J/kg. Very limited to nil SB/MLCAPE to work with as this
region holds north of the boundary with capping in place. Given the
enhanced westerly speed shear and sufficient MUCAPE, organized multi-
cell convection producing isolated to scattered strong to severe
storms will be possible. Some strong/severe line/bowing segments are
also is a low-end possibility in this flow regime. Elevated
thunderstorms producing large hail will be the main severe weather
hazard.

The stationary front is expected to sag south between 20-00Z with
the weaker height falls north of the front. As the boundary starts
to drive south, there will be a window for better surface based
development along the boundary as the cap decreases in strength. Hi-
res models continue to show the greatest likelihood of a wind threat
falling between the m59 - I69 corridor, but locations north remain
susceptible. Locations along and south of I94 remain too well capped
and away from better forcing -- thus thunderstorm activity is not
expected for the southern Metro region down to the MI/OH border.

Monday Morning - Friday.

Surface boundary will settle right around the MI/OH border by 06Z
but an elevated baroclinic zone with enhanced theta-a will hold
across the cwa and will interact with glancing shortwaves within the
mean zonal flow pattern. This will maintain the chance mention for
showers and thunderstorms through Monday morning and early
afternoon. Low pressure across the northern Plains will move into
the Midwest north before passing into Lake Superior late Monday into
Tuesday morning. Northward push of the elevated front will again
provide the chance for elevated showers and thunderstorms generally
north of I94, coinciding with better forcing and moisture transport.
Lull in precipitation expected within the warm sector on Tuesday
afternoon along with breezy southwest flow with gusts to 30-35 mph.
Temperatures return back into the 80s for daytime high before the
better  coverage of precipitation enters late Tuesday into Wednesday
with the northeast progression of the aforementioned low pressure
system, drawing a cold front across SE MI. Too far out to get
specific with severe weather threat but SE MI, but early analysis
shows the passage of the cold front around or after 20Z, which would
help capitalize on late day heating with modest bulk shear in place.
SWODY3 holds a marginal risk for severe weather.

High pressure and dry air filters in behind the cold front which
will bring decreasing temperatures, humidity, and a period of dry
weather. Daytime highs will reside in the mid to upper 70s Wednesday
into Thursday as dry conditions hold through the midweek period.

&&

.MARINE...

Flow continues to be split across the Great Lakes region in the wake
of a stalled frontal boundary, with light northerly flow across Lake
Huron and stronger southwesterly flow for Lake St. Clair and western
Lake Erie. An upper level disturbance tracks along the boundary this
afternoon-evening bringing shower and thunderstorm chances, with
isolated storms producing gusty winds, lightning, and locally
heightened waves. Frontal boundary then sags south late tonight and
tomorrow, with winds veering to the north as a result. Slight rain
chances continue tomorrow, although better chances for widespread
rainfall will be Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday as a more
potent low pressure system tracks across the Great Lakes. This low
also brings the next chance for headlines across the nearshore
zones on Tuesday.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...

Widely scattered to numerous showers and thunderstorms are expected
mainly north of I69 later this afternoon into the evening. Rainfall
totals are expected to range between a 1/4 to 3/4 inch. Localized
higher amounts are to be expected with any stronger and repeated
thunderstorm activity, where an inch or greater will then be
possible. Poor drainage and urban flooding will be possible with this
activity.

.PREV DISCUSSION...
Issued at 224 PM EDT Sun Sep 12 2021

AVIATION...

Cold front draped east-west across Lower Michigan has stalled
between KFTN and KPTK this afternoon. MVFR ceilings more prevalent
from KPTK north this afternoon/evening (cold side of the boundary),
but did TEMPO in a couple hours of MVFR for the southern terminals
given the vicinity of the low cloud gradient. Lower confidence TAF
cycle with thunderstorm, shower, fog, and ceiling concerns through
18Z Monday. Kept TSRA for the northern sites this evening with a
slight shift later and further north, so may need to amend to remove
KPTK. Bulk of this fast-moving convection exits the terminals by
02Z, but trailing redevelopment remains unclear before 06Z. Showers
stream through after 08Z, largely missing KMBS with MVFR fog and
ceilings likely during this time. Visibilities recover first after
sunrise, but signal increases for carrying MVFR ceiling until late
in the TAF period, if not into the next.

For DTW...Still a small opportunity before 20Z for MVFR ceiling
(TEMPO). Storms remain north of the terminal this evening, then
showers fill in with MVFR cig/vsby late. Will take some time for
cigs to scatter out late Monday morning.

DTW THRESHOLD PROBABILITIES...

* Low for ceilings at or below 5 kft this afternoon, then medium 08-
  15Z Monday.

* Low for thunderstorms this evening and overnight.
