Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Marquette MI
631 PM EDT Mon Jul 26 2021

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Tuesday)
Issued at 401 PM EDT MON JUL 26 2021

WV imagery and RAP analysis indicated a wnw mid/upper level flow
through the northern Great Lakes between a trough through Hudson Bay
into the ne CONUS and a ridge from the Great Basin into the Western
Plains. An upstream shortwave trough located over the Northern
Plains has initiated convection early this afternoon along an
instability gradient north of KINL into the arrowhead of MN southern
Saskatchewan and into ne WI. Otherwise, weak sfc high pressure has
kept conditions dry thus far across Upper Mi with interior temp
readings well into the 80s under partly cloudy skies.

Not great agreement or continuity with the CAMs solutions, although
most solutions maintain generally dry conditions with cap of up to
100 j/kg of CIN into the early evening hours. Consensus of CAMs
solutions shows CIN and weak cap gradually eroding as main shortwave
from the northern Plains moves overhead by late evening/early
overnight with more robust convection initiating in the western cwa
between 9 and 11 pm and then spreading south and east through the
late evening and early overnight hours. MUCAPE values of 1000-1500
j/kg along with deep layer shear of 45-50 kts oriented warm frontal
boundary along or just south of the WI border should result in
organized convection becoming more linear with time late evening
into overnight hours. Given instability and strong shear...SPC
day1 convective outlook has much of the west half of the U.P.
under a slight risk of severe storms and the east half under a
marginal risk. Main threat from severe storms will be large hail
and damaging winds. Would suspect organized convective storms or
any developing bowing segments to turn more south with time later
tonight following the better instability gradient. Any remaining
storms should diminish and move out late tonight as the shortwave
exits to the se.

Tuesday, frontal boundary lingers along south central portions of
the U.P. and a few of the model soundings show building instability
through the day and pooling of higher mid 60s dewpoints along the
boundary. A few of the CAMs try to initiate convection over the
south central U.P. but I have a hard time believing this will happen
as mid-level ridge heights will be building through the day and
drying/subsidence occurring at mid-levels. Soundings also show a
pretty substantial cap that would have to be overcome so expect dry
conditions should be the rule across the cwa. With relatively high
dewpoints still in place, expect there could be diurnal cu over the
interior. With 850mb temps ranging from 12-13c east to around 15c
west, expect max temps ranging from the lower 70s along the Lake
Superior shoreline to the upper 70s to around 80s over interior
locations.

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Monday)
Issued at 328 PM EDT MON JUL 26 2021

The next time period to watch will be Wednesday as another
shortwave rides around the periphery of the upper ridge centered
over the Central Plains. For this next feature, timing has it
coming across portions of Upper Michigan at the height of daytime
heating, which could easily enhance the severity potential if
other parameters come together. Given this consideration, there
are indications that Wednesday's event could be the bigger one to
watch given that 0-6km bulk shear, instability, moisture content,
and so forth all seem supportive for a severe event. Then the
question becomes track and placement, which is lower confidence as
it is still two days out. Some models have the main convective
complex primarily crossing WI while others, such as the NAM, are
much further north, cutting right through the heart of the U.P.,
which isn't unreasonable given the expectation of the upper ridge
meandering to the ENE by then. Stay tuned.

Once that convection clears out, expect a brief quiet weather
period on Thursday as surface high pressure stops by. As the
aforementioned upper ridge breaks down late in the week, this will
open the door for an upper trough to sink down across Ontario by
early next weekend, accompanied by another chance for showers and
thunderstorms. Surface high pressure under meridional flow then
looks to build in toward the end of the weekend into early next
week.

As previously discussed, temperatures continue to look on track to
run near to above normal for the long-term period. Highs each day
will generally run in the 70s and 80s, with lows ranging from the
40s in the interior behind a fropa Thursday night into Friday
morning and then again over the weekend, and 50s and 60s
elsewhere/otherwise.
&&

.AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Tuesday evening)
Issued at 631 PM EDT MON JUL 26 2021

VFR conditions are expected through most of the period. Showers and
thunderstorms are expected to develop or move into the region this
evening and continue overnight. There is the potential for strong
wind gusts with some of the storms and also some MVFR conditions as
well. However, confidence is limited with the timing/coverage of the
storms.
&&

.MARINE...(For the 4 PM Lake Superior forecast issuance)
Issued at 401 PM EDT MON JUL 26 2021

Winds are expected to be 20 kts or less through much of the fcst
period. A seasonably strong cold frontal passage Wed night could
generate north to northwesterly gusts up to 20-25 knots behind the
front on Thursday, highest over the east half.
