Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Marquette MI
118 AM EST Sat Dec 25 2021

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Saturday)
Issued at 453 PM EST FRI DEC 24 2021

Water vapor imagery and RAP analysis show a shortwave trof extending
from central Saskatchewan se toward Lake Superior. Associated broad
sfc low is centered just e of Lake Winnipeg with cold front arcing s
across MN. Ahead of the front, abundant low-level moisture is
resulting in low clouds and fog across most of the fcst area. Where
sse flow is upsloping into central Upper MI, the fog has become
locally dense. Left exit of 150kt upper jet extending from SD across
southern MN into central WI is supporting an area of -ra that is
spreading ne into central Upper MI. It's a mild Christmas Eve day
with temps currently in the mid to upper 30s F across the board.

Expect aforementioned area of -ra to spread quickly ene over the
next few hrs. The -ra should tend to linger over the e or may
transition to more of a -dz during the evening as the approaching
cold front will not clear the fcst area until around 06z. There
could be a little postfrontal wnw upslope flow -dz/-fzdz over the nw
fcst area. There's not a lot of low cloudiness in northern MN, so
potential looks limited at this point. Until the front passes,
upslope sse flow will support fog, especially across the central
fcst area where this flow is more strongly upsloping. However,
locally dense fog will likely spread eastward thru the evening hrs
as dwpts rise farther e, especially once the -ra diminishes. The fog
and low clouds will thin out after fropa tonight. Expect min temps
ranging from around 15F far w to 30 far e.

Christmas Day will be a dry day for much of the fcst area, and there
may be a fair amount of sunshine for a time thru the morning,
especially where nw winds downslope. Next shortwave will be moving
out across the Northern Plains and will be approaching Upper MI by
evening. Deep layer forcing ahead of the wave should support some
-sn streaking e into western Upper MI late in the aftn with high and
mid clouds spreading across the rest of the area. Upper diffluence
resulting from a 140kt upper jet streak running from Nebraska/SD
toward southern Lake MI and a secondary much weaker jet streak vcnty
of the U.S./Canada border will further support -sn development. Snow
accumulations should be under 1 inch by 00z Sun. Expect high temps
to range from generally the mid 20s F w to the lwr 30s s central and
e.

.LONG TERM...(Saturday night through Friday)
Issued at 535 PM EST FRI DEC 24 2021

A very active extended period is expected across Upper Michigan with
several perturbations ahead of a deep trough progged to hit the west
coast on Sunday.  First, a shortwave will continue its progression
through the forecast area on Saturday night.  Strong forcing fueled
by a 150kt upper level jet will intensify snow development,
especially in the Sun 00-06Z time frame.  A quick 1 to 3 inches will
be possible over the western portions of the forecast area.  Per
CAMs, any LES potential in the wake of the clipper will be minimal.

After a brief lull on Sunday, focus quickly turns to the next wave
pivoting around the aforementioned west coast trough.  Isentropic
lift will ramp up with this disturbance in the Mon 06Z-Tue 00Z time
frame.  Significant snow accumulations will be possible with the
Keweenaw likely being hit the hardest.

Further out, the west coast system will finally move into Manitoba
on Tuesday giving Upper Michigan yet another round of accumulating
snow.  Meanwhile, temperatures through the period will generally be
above normal until a colder airmass overspreads the region late
in the period.

.AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Saturday night)
Issued at 114 AM EST SAT DEC 25 2021

Gusty winds have arrived over the Keweenaw Peninsula early this
morning as the front has passed through the area. Winds will relax
a bit with time later this morning but will still see around 15
knots through the early morning hours at KCMX with lighter winds
at KIWD. The next challenge arrives in the late afternoon as the
next system approaches. VFR conditions will lower into the MVFR
range and light snow will develop at KCMX and KIWD. KIWD will see
some IFR ceilings as well as reduced visibilities as the snowfall
intensifies.

.MARINE...(For the 4 PM Lake Superior forecast issuance)
Issued at 453 PM EST FRI DEC 24 2021

SSE gales of 35-40 knots across the e half of Lake Superior will
diminish to below gale force early this evening as low-level jet
ahead of approaching cold front shifts e of the lake. Cold front
will cross the lake thru the evening hrs, resulting in a wind shift
to the nw at 25-30kt. Across the e half, there may be some gale
force gusts to 35kt late tonight and Sat morning. Winds will then
diminish thru Sat night, falling to under 20kt across the entire
lake for Sun. Next low pres will then lift ne toward the Upper Great
Lakes Sun night. E to SE winds will ramp up ahead of it, likely
reaching 35-40kt gales across much of central and eastern Lake
Superior late Sun night and Mon morning. After the system passes,
expect westerly winds of 20-30kt across much of Lake Superior into
Mon evening. Winds will then briefly subside to blo 20kt for Tue
morning before increasing ahead of the next low pres which will take
a similar track to the previous low. May end up with another e to se
gale Tue night and potentially a westerly gale after it passes on
Wed.
