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 Mar 25, 3:46 AM EDT, 33 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Mar 25, 3:46 AM EDT, 33 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Marquette MI 346 AM EDT Thu Mar 25 2021 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Thursday) Issued at 404 PM EDT WED MAR 24 2021 MSAS analysis and surface wind obs show an elongated surface cyclone stretched out across northern Wisconsin and the western U.P. The initial surge of WAA this morning led to widespread showers, which tapered off by late morning as the cyclone's dry conveyor belt wrapped northward across the U.P. This afternoon, SPC/RAP Mesoanalysis shows the mid-level vort max centered over central Wisconsin. A bit of dCVA out ahead of the wave will bring another round of steady rain to the central U.P. over the next few hours. Radar shows plenty of 25-35 dBZ returns over north-central Wisconsin associated with that lift which should translate into an additional 0.1-0.2" of rain from roughly Iron River east to central Menominee County and north to western Marquette County. Tonight, as the low pulls away to the northeast and drags its cold front across the area, winds will quickly veer around to WNW. Temps aloft won't be cold enough to support pure lake-effect precipitation, but will be cold enough that in conjunction with the remaining wrap-around moisture, a short period of lake-enhanced upslope precip is expected for the western tier counties this evening. It looks like this will fall as rain quickly transitioning to light snow. Given the lack of any truly cold air, and thus little to no potential for dendritic growth, along with some surface melting, SLRs will be 10:1 or less. Therefore, am expecting [...] for snowfall tonight. All of that wrap-around precip is expected to be done by sunrise tomorrow. Temps tonight will fall into the mid 20s to around 30 behind the front. Seasonably cool NW to N flow with continued cloudiness tomorrow will keep highs around 30 north to around 40 south. .LONG TERM...(Friday through Wednesday) Issued at 344 AM EDT THU MAR 25 2021 Somewhat active long term forecast period as several rounds of rain and/or snow are fcst to move through the region. Beginning Friday, combination of lingering weak q-vector convergence on nw periphery of system moving through se Lower Mi, marginally cold temps of -10/-11C between 875 mb and 900 mb, and upslope nne flow could support some light snow showers/flurries in the morning into Marquette and maybe even Baraga county. High pressure building in from northwest and associated subsidence will put an end to any light snow showers and provide some afternoon clearing over the interior west and south central portions of the cwa. Look for highs ranging from the lower 30s north under lake clouds and northerly flow to the lower 40s south central where afternoon clearing is expected to take place. Mid-level trough and associated frontal system projected to move through Upper Mi is split into two pieces of shortwave energy. Southern stream wave emerging from the Central Plains will eject out ahead of the front Sat afternoon bringing a mix of rain/snow into the evening hours, but then northern stream wave pushes into the area later in the evening/overnight as phasing causes the sfc low to deepen along the front as it pushes east into the Central and Eastern Great Lakes. Expect ptype to change over to snow by late evening, but with system quickly moving across the area, models not showing much more than .25 of an inch of qpf with around an inch or two of wet snow possible, likely greatest west and north central in developing deformation area and strengthening f-gen on backside of the low. Sunday, models differ somewhat on magnitude of cold air behind Sat night's cold front, with h85 temps now as low -14C off the 00Z GFS and as low as -12C per ECMWF. Cyclonic nw flow and marginally cold temps could result in some light accumulation of nw flow LES into mainly east half portions of cwa. Instability and mixing will also result in blustery nw winds gusting to 20-30 mph, strongest east half. Deterministic models appear to coming into better agreement with pattern and shortwave features for early to middle of next week. Broad ridging, rising heights and surge of WAA in a sw flow will result in drier, warmer and breezy conditions on Mon. Warm and breezy conditions will continue into Tue as a 50-60 kt LLJ surges across the area early Tue. A strong shortwave and deepening sfc low lifting ne from southern Saskatchewan into northern Manitoba will bring a cold front into the area late Tue/Tue night but limited moisture and weak forcing along the front should only result in light rain changing to a light rain/snow mix Tue night. Temps will rebound above normal for Mon and Tue with highs reaching into the 50s across much of the area by Tue. Expect a sharp cool down Wed into Thu with CAA behind the front as both the GFS and ECMWF indicate h85 temps lowering to around -17C by Thu. Would expect at least some light accumulation of n-nw flow LES both Wed-Thu downwind of Lake Superior along with breezier or blustery conditions. High temps will cool back down mostly into the 30s by Thu. && .AVIATION...(For the 06Z TAFS through 06Z Thursday night) Issued at 103 AM EDT THU MAR 25 2021 Pcpn associated with departing low pres has largely ended. However, low level moisture will be slow to exit in the wake of the low. As a result, while IFR cigs will improve to MVFR overnight at KIWD, VFR conditions may not develop until Thu aftn. MVFR cigs will then return this evening. At KCMX/KSAW, MVFR cigs will probably persist thru this fcst period. && .MARINE...(For the 4 PM Lake Superior forecast issuance) Issued at 404 PM EDT WED MAR 24 2021 NE gales continue on the west half of the lake as the center of the low moves north across the U.P. and central Lake Superior. This will transition to NW gales on the east half tonight behind the system's cold front, diminishing below gale early Thursday morning and then below 20 kts by early afternoon. NE winds will increase again to 25- 30 kts across much of the lake Thursday night as a strong low passes by well to the south. Winds will subside below 20 kts again Friday morning. The next period of strong winds looks to be on Sunday over the east half when gales continue to look likely with a shot of cold air. Right now it looks like temps will stay just warm enough to prevent any substantial freezing spray with this shot of cold air. Lighter winds are expected again Monday. && .MQT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... Upper Michigan... None. Lake Superior... Gale Warning until 8 AM EDT this morning for LSZ266-267. Lake Michigan...
