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 Marquette, MI wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Dec 26, 4:00 PM EST, 3 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 26, 4:00 PM EST, 3 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Marquette MI
400 PM EST Sun Dec 26 2021

.SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday)
Issued at 400 PM EST SUN DEC 26 2021

The quiet weather will persist through the evening with 850 mb temps
falling just short of the LES threshold all day.  That will all
change though by late evening as focus turns to the next low
pressure system approaching from the Northern Plains.

The timing of this storm will make it particulary impactful with the
best frontogenetical forcing moving through in the Mon 06-12Z time
frame, just before the Monday morning commute.  Currently, snow can
be seen making its way through Iowa and Minnesota on regional radar
mosaics. And, estimated arrival time across the western portions of
Upper Michigan will be around Mon 00-03Z per strengthening q-vector
convergence fields.  Will keep QPF in the .2 to .3 inch range, but
highest amounts are expected over the Keweenaw where dynamics are
strongest due to the track of the low.  Meanwhile, with snow ratios
in the 10:1 to 13:1 range, it will be a wet, heavy snow followed by
some freezing rain at the end of the event as highs climb into the
low to mid 30s on Monday with a saturated environment well into
Monday afternoon.

In addition to the higher snow amounts, blowing snow will be a
threat over the Keweenaw as well due to southeast winds gusting to
35 to 40 mph. For these reasons and the impact to the morning
commute, headlines are in place for the event.

.LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday)
Issued at 212 PM EST SUN DEC 26 2021

A classic -PNA pattern this morning persists into the beginning of
the long-term period. A series of shortwave troughs pivoting around
a closed 500mb low over Saskatchewan/Manitoba produce active
weather across the Northern Great Lakes. Precip associated with
the first shortwave diminishes Monday night except for light lake
effect snow streaming into the Copper Country. A similar system
tracks across the area Tuesday night into Wednesday bringing a few
inches of wet snow across Upper MI. A prolonged episode of W to
WNW wind lake effect snow develops late Wednesday through Friday.
A low amplitude shortwave adds synoptic support to ongoing LES
late Thursday into Friday. The closed upper level low over central
Canada shifts east next weekend allowing a potentially major
winter storm to track from the Southern Plains northeast toward
the Lower Great Lakes.

Starting Monday night, a weakening surface low tracks east across
Lake Superior with gusty west winds and light LES south of the
surface low. The LES environment isn't particularly favorable with
inversion heights around 5kft and lake-850 mb delta-Ts between 14C
and 17C. However, decaying synoptic scale support combined with a
marginal LES environment should result in 1-2" accumulations for the
Copper Country with locally higher totals possible along the ridges.
Daylight hours on Tuesday appear cloudy and mostly dry as the next
system approaches from the southwest.

A couple inches of wet snow is expected across Upper MI again on
Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. Precipitation amounts appear
somewhat lighter than Mondays system, but widespread 1-3" amounts
appear likely. Locally higher amounts are possible for locations
that benefit from ESE lake enhancement and upslope. CAA and
resultant lake effect snow increase late Wednesday for west wind
snow belts. Lake-850 mb delta-Ts increase to near or above 20C by
00Z Thursday, but shallow inversion heights and dry mid-levels are
expected to limit LES intensity. That should change late on Thursday
as the next shortwave moves through bringing deeper saturation and
synoptic scale support to ongoing LES. Another low-amplitude
shortwave may have a similar effect late Friday into Saturday.

Both deterministic and ensemble model guidance increasingly supports
the idea of a major winter storm developing east of the Rockies this
weekend. WPC cluster analysis suggests much of the ensemble spread
results from 1) magnitude of southeast ridging and 2) how
progressive the Canadian closed low is. The 12z GEFS mean indicates
a surface low developing near the OK panhandle Friday night then
tracking northeast toward Lake Erie by Saturday night. The
operational 12Z GFS surface low is slower, deeper, and farther
northwest than the GEFS mean, which feels like the right idea at
this time. It's too early to speculate about potential impacts
outside of the likelihood of some lake effect snow.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Monday afternoon)
Issued at 1256 PM EST SUN DEC 26 2021

MVFR conditions continue to linger at KCMX and KSAW this afternoon
with the onshore northerly flow.  And, any improvement to VFR late
this evening will be short-lived as snow moves in with the next
system.  Meanwhile, IWD is holding steady at VFR for now and will do
so until the system moves in.  IWD will then also deteriorate to
MVFR sometime in the Mon 08-10Z time frame.  Strong southeast
winds of 13 to 15 kts with gusts to 33 kts could further worsen
conditions to IFR around daybreak Monday morning, especially at
KCMX and KSAW.
&&

.MARINE...(For the 4 PM Lake Superior forecast issuance)
Issued at 400 PM EST SUN DEC 26 2021

ESE winds will intensify this evening and tonight with gales of 35
to 40 kts over the western portions of the lake as the next system
moves into the area. 35 to 40 kt gales will become widespread across
the lake by tomorrow morning with some localized gales up to 42 kts
through Monday afternoon across the eastern half of the lake while
the western half briefly subsides.  At that point though, southwest
gales of 35 to 40 kts will quickly start again over the western part
of the lake, but they will diminish a bit to 30 to 35 kts across the
central and eastern portions of the lake through course of the
night.  After that, expect a bit of a lull until Wednesday when
widespread 30 to 35 kt gales will impact much of the lake with the
next system.
