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 Apr 4, 8:06 PM EDT, 1 hour 36 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Apr 4, 8:06 PM EDT, 1 hour 36 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Marquette MI 806 PM EDT Sun Apr 4 2021 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Monday) Issued at 345 PM EDT SUN APR 4 2021 Across the forecast area today, mid to high level clouds have persisted with a layer of dry air within the lower 10k feet. This dry layer has allowed a lot of the moisture associated with these WAA/isentropically forced clouds to evaporate before reaching the ground. Despite the cloud cover, this WAA and southeasterly flow has allowed temps in the west to burst into the 60s. RTMA ob analysis has much of the west in the 60s and some parts of Ontonagon and southern Houghton counties in the mid-upper 60s. With the same flow off Lake Michigan into the east, more moderated temps have been observed, albeit still higher then most of the guidance suggested. There, temps have largely topped out in the 50s with some 60s observed in the interior and along the Lake Superior shoreline. The aforementioned dry layer and dinural mixing has allowed dewpoints to remain in the 20s across the region. With the temps climbing as high as they have in the west, RH values in the west and parts of the east have fallen to near 20%. For the remainder of the afternoon, expecting the trend to continue, with some additional warming of a degree or two and subsequent lowering of RH values being possible. Upstream, the trough responsible for the WAA/isentropic ascent will shift eastward into the region this evening. The same forcings will persist through the night, as will the drier low levels of the atmosphere. However, guidance is pinging on 1-200 j/kg of elevated MUCAPE, which could support a shower or two overcoming the dry air in the central, south and east by morning. I maintained the dry forecast though given the probability of this happening is low. Overnight lows will be mild, with mid-upper 30s in the central and near 40 in the east and far west. Tomorrow, synoptically, the trough will continue eastward over the region. With the core of the weak isentropic forcing shifting eastward as well, any showers that does develop tonight could move into the east during the morning hours. For a while, guidance was pinging on a better precip signal tomorrow morning in the east, but have since dialed it back. Given this, continued the trend of maintaining a dry forecast. Daytime highs should climb into the 50s. The west will be dry and warm. Model certainty pegged much of southern Houghton and the interior portions of Gogebic and Ontonagon counties with greater than 80% probability of exceeding 70 degrees. At the same time, model soundings show steepening lapse rates through day, which again should allow for gusty winds near 15 to 20 mph to mix down to the surface. While they also suggest the mid- levels gradually moistening through the day in the central and east, the mixing and lingering dry low level air in the west should again lower RH values in parts of the far west to near 25%. By the late afternoon, destabilization of the atmosphere is expected and a shower or perhaps a thunderstorm can't be ruled out near the western WI/MI stateline. I should note though that guidance has trended backwards in regards to timing and its possible the forecast area may avoid convective shower activity through 0z tomorrow evening. If something does develop though, elevated MUCAPE values of around 1000j/kg with weak shear likely wouldn't support much in the way of healthy thunderstorm organization in our forecast area. .LONG TERM...(Monday night through Sunday) Issued at 321 PM EDT SUN APR 4 2021 Models now appear to be trending toward a more active weather pattern through much of the extended with opportunities for much needed rainfall across the area. Beginning Mon night into early Tue, a shortwave moving from northern Manitoba towards Hudson Bay will propel a cold front into Upper Mi late Mon night into Tue morning. Model soundings show some increase in elevated instability into the western and perhaps south central fcst area to around 1000 j/kg which could support some thunderstorm activity in these areas into the evening hours ahead of the approaching frontal boundary and at nose of 30 kt LLJ. Most models (with the exception of the NAM) have instability waning and thus the threat of t-storms diminishing overnight Mon night into early Tue for the rest of cwa ahead of the advancing frontal boundary. While soundings show nice veering profiles and curved hodographs into this area, effective shear is somewhat weak, generally 25-30 knots, so not really expecting any stronger storms to support large hail into the west. PWATs rising to around 1.00 inch and modest 850 mb transport should support some rainfall across the rest of the cwa late Mon night into early Tue with the passage of the cold front, but the question is how much? Best dynamics/forcing along the front is well north of Lake Superior into far northern Ontario. GFS ensembles and SREF plumes indicate qpf of maybe .25 to .5 inch west tapering to .1 to .25 of an inch central and east. Behind this front, expect some clearing Tuesday afternoon west and central before some light rainfall returns Wednesday to mainly the west half as a low begins to emerge from the Central Plains. Models indicate that the low should lift ne into the Upper MS Valley and Upper Great Lakes region by the end of the work week as it weakens. The GFS and the ECMWF models then show the low continuing to persist over the Upper Great Lakes through next weekend. Gulf moisture being drawn northward ahead of the low with PWAT values rising to 1.00- 1.25 inches by late Wed into Thu will result in increasing chances of much needed soaking rainfall across the area. Rain showers will gradually diminish in coverage by late week (Fri into the weekend) as the low continues to weaken over the area and the best tap of Gulf of Mexico moisture gets shunted east. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Monday evening) Issued at 805 PM EDT SUN APR 4 2021 Dry air at the lower levels will maintain VFR conditions at KIWD/KCMX/KSAW through the forecast period with only mid clouds moving through the area. Light winds tonight will increase from the south to southeast Monday and become gusty during the afternoon. && .MARINE...(For the 4 PM Lake Superior forecast issuance) Issued at 345 PM EDT SUN APR 4 2021 High pressure will exit east toward James Bay this afternoon and tonight as a low pressure trough approaches the Upper Mississippi Valley. The result will be increasing easterly winds tonight to 20- 25 knots over the north-central and west early. While the winds settle down to near 15-20 knots in the west overnight, winds will increase across the remainder of the north and parts of the eastern lake by Monday morning to near 30 knots. A trough will move into the western parts of the lake by Monday night, supporting northeasterly winds to around 25 knots by Monday afternoon. Over the northeast third of Lake Superior, southeasterly winds to near 30 knots with some gale force gusts to 35 knots will be possible into Tuesday morning. On Tuesday, winds should fall to 20 knots or lower across the lake as the aforementioned trough moves through the lake and high pressure builds in from the west. Upstream, a system is expected to develop in the Central Plains Tuesday night and start tracking toward the Upper Great Lakes. This will result in east to northeast winds increasing back to 20 to 30 knots Wednesday and Thursday, beginning first over western third of Lake Superior during the day Wednesday. && .MQT WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
