AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MARQUETTE MI
1231 AM EST SUN DEC 23 2007
UPDATED FOR AVIATION DISCUSSION
.DISCUSSION...
SHORT TERM TO 00Z MON...
THE MAIN CONCERN WITH THIS FORECAST PACKAGE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR
WINTER STORM TONIGHT AND SUNDAY.
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY AND RUC SHOWING A CLOSED LOW OVER NORTH DAKOTA
EMBEDDED IN A LONGWAVE TROUGH THAT STRETCHES FROM NORTHERN MANITOBA
TO TEXAS. WEAK SHORTWAVE EJECTED OUT OF THE BASE OF THIS TROUGH ARE
MOVING THROUGH THE FORECAST AREA. A LITTLE STRONGER SHORTWAVES ARE
OVER OKLAHOMA AND OVER EASTERN NORTH DAKOTA ACCOMPANYING THE CLOSED
LOW. SURFACE ANALYSIS DEPICTS A LOW OVER WESTERN LAKE SUPERIOR AND
OVER SOUTHWEST MISSOURI. THESE LOW ARE LINKED BY A COLD FRONT. WARM
MOISTURE AIR ARE DRAWN NORTH INTO THE UPPER GREAT LAKES REGION AHEAD
OF THIS SYSTEM BY THE CYCLONIC FLOW. SURFACE DEW POINTS ARE WELL
INTO THE MID 30S ACROSS THE AREA. THIS CONTINUES TO GENERATE
RAIN...DRIZZLE AND FOG AROUND THE AREA.
THE MID LEVEL LOW WILL DIVE SOUTH FROM NORTH DAKOTA INTO NORTHWEST
IOWA TONIGHT. WHILE THE TWO SURFACE LOW MERGE OVERNIGHT NEAR KGRB.
WARM MOIST AIR WILL CONTINUE TO BE DRAWN INTO THE AREA. ISENTROPIC
ASCENT AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL CONTINUE TO GENERATE PRECIPITATION
ACROSS THE AREA. NAM/GFS FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATE THAT
TEMPERATURES WILL STAY ABOVE FREEZING FROM SURFACE TO 850MB OVER THE
EASTERN TWO THIRDS OF THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT. A THERMAL TROUGH
BEHIND THE FRONT WILL EDGE INTO MINNESOTA AND WISCONSIN OVERNIGHT.
THE SURFACE LOW WILL SHIFT NORTHWARD INTO CENTRAL U.P. BY SUNSET
SUNDAY. TIGHTER GRADIENTS BEHIND THE LOW WILL CAUSE STRONG
WINDS OVER LAKE SUPERIOR AND EXPOSED AREA ALONG THE LAKE SUPERIOR
SHORE. WRAP AROUND MOISTURE WILL SPREAD OVER THE AREA EARLY ON
SUNDAY AND COLD AIR BEHIND THE LOW AND FRONT WILL CHANGE THE RAIN TO
SNOW. 850MB DELTA-TS WILL INCREASE TO AROUND 9C OVER THE WEST.
EXPECT HEAVIEST SNOWFALL AMOUNTS OVER THE WESTERN U.P. DUE TO LAKE
ENHANCED CONDITIONS.
LONGER TERM...00Z MON ONWARD...
NAM SHOWING THE CLOSED 500 MB LOW OVER SE LOWER MI 00Z MON THAT
HEADS TO WESTERN QUE 12Z MON. THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH MOVES EAST ON
MON THEN WITH A WEAK SHORTWAVE ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE TROUGH
AFFECTING THE CWA ON MON. UPPER LEVEL RIDGING THEN MOVES IN FOR MON
NIGHT. THE NAM IS SHOWING 850-500 MB Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE MOVING OUT
SUN NIGHT WITH MOISTURE ALSO BEGINNING TO MOVE OUT. WEAK 850-500 MB
Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE MOVES BACK IN FOR MON AFTERNOON WITH THE
SHORTWAVE ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE TROUGH...BUT DEEP MOISTURE BY THAT
TIME IS GONE. SUN NIGHT...NAM IS SHOWING ISENTROPIC LIFT STILL ON
THE BACKSIDE OF THE SYSTEM COMING IN FROM THE NE ON I280K-I295K
SURFACES WITH WEAK BROADSCALE LIFT AT 06Z MON WITH MOISTURE STILL IN
THE AREA BEFORE THE MOISTURE MOVES OUT AFTER 12Z MON. GFS SHOWS
ABOUT THE SAME THING FOR Q-VECTOR CONVERGENCE AS WELL. WILL USE A
BLEND OF THE TWO FOR THIS FORECAST.
SUNDAY NIGHT WILL BE A PROBLEM OVER THE EASTERN CWA. DECIDED TO GO
WITH A WATCH AT THIS POINT SINCE IT WILL BE NASTY AND IT IS
CHRISTMAS TRAVELING SEASON. NOT SURE IF ADVISORY CRITERIA WILL EVEN
BE MET OVER THE EAST OR EVEN WARNING CRITERIA AND NORMALLY WOULD NOT
ISSUE A WATCH FOR THIS SITUATION...BUT WANT TO GET TRAVELERS A
HEADS UP IT WILL BE BAD WITH SNOW AND BLOWING SNOW OVER THE ERN CWA
WITH STRONGER WINDS OVER THE EAST SUN NIGHT. THAT IS THE REASON FOR
A WATCH AT THIS TIME OVER THE ERN CWA. LATER SHIFTS CAN GO WITH
WARNINGS OR ADVISORIES WHEN THEY ARE NEEDED OVER THE EAST.
SUN NIGHT...SYNOPTIC SNOW WILL BE WINDING DOWN AND WILL BE REPLACED
BY LAKE EFFECT OR LAKE ENHANCEMENT. COULD BE UP TO 5 INCHES OF SNOW
POSSIBLE THEN WITH THE HEAVIEST SNOW IN THE EVENING. 850 MB
TEMPERATURES GET DOWN TO ABOUT -8 TO -10C...BUT DEEP MOISTURE IS
GONE BY THAT TIME. WILL CONTINUE THE WARNINGS IN THE WEST HALF TO
12Z MON FOR THIS REASON WITH A BIT OF BLOWING AND DRIFTING SNOW THEN
TOO.
MONDAY...LAKE EFFECT WINDS DOWN AS DRIER AIR ENTERS INTO THE AREA.
OVERALL...DID NOT MAKE TOO MANY DRASTIC CHANGES TO THE GOING
FORECAST FOR TEMPERATURES OR WEATHER.
IN THE EXTENDED...00Z ECMWF WHICH WILL BE THE MODEL OF CHOICE TODAY
HAS A TROUGH AFFECTING THE CWA WED AND THU WITH RIDGING FOR FRI AND
ANOTHER POTENTIAL LARGE STORM FOR SAT WITH A CLOSED 500 MB LOW
MOVING FROM THE 4 CORNERS REGION TO THE AREA FOR SAT. DID NOT MAKE
TOO MANY CHANGES TO THE GOING FORECAST EXCEPT TO GO DRY FOR LATE THU
NIGHT THROUGH FRI AS SFC RIDGING MOVES IN AND SNOW MOVES IN FOR FRI
NIGHT AND SAT. THIS SYSTEM WILL HAVE TO BE WATCHED AS IT IS A FOUR
CORNERS LOW AND COMES UP OUR WAY WITH PLENTY OF MOISTURE AVAILABLE.
THIS COULD BE THE NEXT BIG STORM...BUT TOO FAR OUT TO REALLY WORRY
ABOUT YET AS THINGS COULD CHANGE. KEPT PRETTY CLOSE TO GOING
TEMPERATURES.
&&
.AVIATION (FOR THE 06Z TAF ISSUANCE)...
AVIATION FORECASTS WILL BE A CHALLENGE AS A DEEP LOW PRESSURE
ORGANIZES SOUTH OF UPR MI TONIGHT AND THEN MOVES OVER CENTRAL UPR MI
ON SUNDAY. THE PROXIMITY OF THE LOW WILL MAKE FORECASTING PCPN TYPE
CHANGEOVER TRICKY TO SAY THE LEAST. AT KCMX...PCPN TYPE WILL
PROBABLY CHANGE FROM SNOW TO RAIN BY 12Z SUN AND THEN BACK OVER TO
SNOW TOWARD SUN EVENING. AT KSAW...PCPN TYPE SHOULD STAY RAIN UNTIL
DYNAMIC COOLING CHANGES RAIN OVER TO SNOW SUN AFTERNOON.
MOIST SE UPSLOPE FLOW WILL CONTINUE LIFR CIGS AT KSAW WHILE STEADY
RAIN INTO SUN MORNING WILL KEEP VSBYS IN THE 1-3 MI RANGE. LOOK FOR
KSAW TO DROP BACK TO LIFR CONDITIONS AGAIN BY 15Z AS PREVAILING FLOW
AGAIN BECOMES SSE AND DRY SLOT DIMINISHES RAIN TO SPRINKLES/DRIZZLE.
AS WIND SHIFTS AROUND TO SSW AND COLDER/DRIER AIR ADVECTS IN BEHIND
THE LOW...CONDITIONS COULD IMPROVE TO MVFR BY LATE SUN AFTERNOON
INTO SUN EVENING. LOOK FOR SNOW AGAIN ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE LOW TO
BRING CIGS/VSBYS BACK DOWN TO IFR BY LATE SUN EVENING.
LOOK FOR GENERALLY IFR CONDITIONS AT KCMX TO FALL TO LIFR ON SUN
MORNING AS A MOIST ERLY DEVELOPS. SNOW DEVELOPING IN CAA NRLY FLOW
ON BACKSIDE ON LOW WILL KEEP CIGS/VSBYS BORDERING ON LIFR INTO SUN
EVENING.
&&
.MARINE (FOR THE 4 PM LAKE SUPERIOR FORECAST ISSUANCE)...
AFTER A GENERAL QUIET PERIOD ON LAKE SUPERIOR THROUGH TONIGHT WITH
WINDS NO HIGHER THAN 25 KT (GREATEST NEAR WHITEFISH POINT)...WINDS
WILL REALLY INCREASE ON SUNDAY. THIS RAPID INCREASE IS DUE TO LOW
PRESSURE OVER SOUTHERN MISSOURI THIS EVENING THAT RAPIDLY DEEPENS AS
IT HEADS DUE NORTH TOWARD CENTRAL UPPER MICHIGAN. AS THE LOW MOVES
TO NEAR MARQUETTE EARLY SUNDAY AFTERNOON...NORTH TO NORTHEAST WINDS
ACROSS WESTERN LAKE SUPERIOR SHOULD INCREASE TO GALES. AS THE LOW
SHIFTS FROM NEAR MUNISING SUNDAY EVENING INTO NORTHWEST QUEBEC LATE
IN THE NIGHT...WINDS WILL QUICKLY RELAX...DROPPING BELOW GALES
ACROSS ALL OF LAKE SUPERIOR JUST AFTER MIDNIGHT SUNDAY NIGHT. WINDS
BELOW 30 KT ARE THEN EXPECTED FOR CHRISTMAS EVE INTO
WEDNESDAY...WITH A HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE CROSSING MONDAY NIGHT AND A
LOW PRESSURE TROUGH CROSSING TUESDAY NIGHT. ANOTHER LOW WITH AN
ACCOMPANYING FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL SHIFT ACROSS THE AREA ON WEDNESDAY.
WINDS WILL PICK UP BEHIND THE LOW ON WEDNESDAY.
