AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION

.AVIATION...

//DISCUSSION...

MAIN CONVECTIVE COMPLEX CONTINUES TO DISSIPATE AS IT MOVE ACROSS
WESTERN MICHIGAN.  REDEVELOPMENT OF SHOWERS AND CONVECTION IS
CURRENTLY ONGOING AS THE SYSTEM MOVES EAST. HAVE CONTINUED TO KEEP
THUNDER IN THE TAFS THROUGH THE EVENING BEFORE CONDITIONS QUIET DOWN
LATER TONIGHT.  MAIN THREATS WITH THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE WINDS AND
HEAVY RAIN.  LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL STICK AROUND OVERNIGHT AND THIS
WILL LIKELY LEAD TO IFR FOG BY SUNRISE TUESDAY BEFORE MIXING OUT
TUESDAY MORNING.

FOR DTW... CONVECTION WILL BE THE MAIN AVIATION CONCERN THROUGH AT
LEAST 00Z. LIGHT WINDS AND THINNING HIGH CLOUDS WILL LIKELY PERMIT
IFR FOG BY SUNRISE TUESDAY.

//DTW THRESHOLD THREATS...

* MODERATE CONFIDENCE IN TIMING/COVERAGE OF THUNDERSTORM POTENTIAL
THROUGH THE EVENING.

* HIGH CONFIDENCE IN CEILINGS BELOW 5000 FEET WITH STORM ACTIVITY.

.PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED 355 AM EDT MON JUL 8 2013

SHORT TERM... TODAY AND TONIGHT

SURFACE AND MODEL ANALYSIS FIELDS INDICATE A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE
RIPPLING ALONG THE STALLED FRONT FROM NORTHERN WISCONSIN THROUGH THE
STRAITS. DYNAMIC SUPPORT FOR VERTICAL MOTION FROM THIS WAVE, ALONG
WITH ENHANCED LOW LEVEL MOISTURE TRANSPORT DOWNSTREAM, HAS SPAWNED
CLUSTERS OF CONVECTION FROM NORTHERN WISCONSIN INTO LOWER MICHIGAN,
AND EVEN AS FAR SOUTH AS NORTHERN ILLINOIS DURING THE EARLY MORNING.
COVERAGE WILL BE GREATEST TO OUR NORTH ALONG THE STALLED FRONTAL
BOUNDARY, BUT EXPECT ENHANCED LOW LEVEL THETA-E ADVECTION TO SUPPORT
CONTINUED NOCTURNAL CONVECTIVE DEVELOPMENT TO THE SOUTH AND OVERHEAD
DURING THE REST OF THE MORNING.

AS USUAL, THERE IS NO SHORTAGE OF SCENARIOS FOR HOW CONVECTIVE
TRENDS WILL THEN PLAY OUT DURING THE REST OF THE DAY INTO TONIGHT.
JUDGING FROM THE EVOLUTION OF LARGER SCALE FEATURES IN MODEL DATA
AND AVAILABLE HI-RES RUNS, SUSPECT THE MORNING ACTIVITY OVER LOWER
MICHIGAN WILL RUN ITS COURSE AND WEAKEN OR MOVE OUT OF THE AREA BY
AFTERNOON. THIS IS A COMMON PROCESS IN NOCTURNALLY FORCED CONVECTION
WHICH WOULD THEN ALLOW RECOVERY OF BOUNDARY LAYER INSTABILITY OVER
SOUTHERN LOWER MICHIGAN, IN TIME TO SUSTAIN THE NORTHERN ILLINOIS
CONVECTIVE CLUSTER/MCS OR FOR NEW STORMS TO INITIATE OFF ITS
REMNANTS. A MODIFIED NAM SOUNDING WITH A SURFACE PARCEL OF 83/70
YIELDS CAPE NEAR 2000 J/KG WITH 0-6 KM BULK SHEAR AROUND 30 KNOTS IN
THE WIND PROFILE, BOTH GOOD ENOUGH TO SUSTAIN CONVECTION FROM
UPSTREAM OR AID IN ORGANIZING NEW STORMS. FOR NOW, PLAN TO CALL FOR
STORMS APPROACHING SEVERE LIMITS DURING THE MID AFTERNOON TO MID
EVENING PERIOD WITH AN UPGRADE POSSIBLE AFTER ASSESSMENT OF MORNING
CONVECTIVE TRENDS.

EXPECT THINGS TO SETTLE DOWN AFTER MIDNIGHT TONIGHT WITH MOSTLY DRY
CONDITIONS THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT. A NEW ROUND OF MCS DEVELOPMENT IS
LIKELY OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS/MIDWEST BUT EXPECT THIS WILL NOT
REACH US BEFORE SUNRISE TUESDAY.

LONG TERM...

UPPER WAVE/SHORTWAVE TROUGH CURRENTLY MOVING THROUGH THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY TIME PERIOD...WITH
DRIER/LESS HUMID AIR TO FOLLOW FOR THURSDAY. THERE WILL BE A RELEASE
OF THE HEAT FURNACE OVER THE ROCKIES AHEAD OF THIS SYSTEM...BUT IT
APPEARS THE WARMTH (850 MB TEMPS OF 20+ C) WILL BE SLIDING THROUGH
IN THE INOPPORTUNE TIME OF TUESDAY NIGHT...AND 90 DEGREES FOR
TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY WILL BE DIFFICULT TO ACHIEVE DUE TO CLOUDS AND
THE CONVECTIVE ACTIVITY EXPECTED. ROLLED WITH THE MAV GUIDANCE FOR
TEMPS BOTH TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.

HEIGHT FALLS WILL BE RAMPING UP OVER THE GREAT LAKES REGION LATE
TUESDAY...CONTINUING INTO WEDNESDAY. THE CENTER OF THE MAX HEIGHT
FALLS WILL BE MOVING THROUGH ONTARIO...AND WITH SUBSEQUENT JET AXIS
STRUNG ACROSS OUR AREA...ALLOWING FOR AN INCREASING THREAT OF SEVERE
WEATHER...AS 0-6KM SHEAR RAMPS UP TO 40+ KNOTS. WARM FRONT LIFTING
NORTH THROUGH THE CWA ON TUESDAY...WITH STRONG LOW LEVEL JET (850 MB
AT 50 KNOTS) ARRIVING TUESDAY NIGHT...AND THE CHANCE OF SEVERE
WEATHER WILL CARRY THROUGH THE NIGHT. 0-1 KM WIND SHEAR/HELICITY WILL BE VERY
HIGH AS WELL...AND WILL HAVE TO BE LEARY OF TORNADOES...BUT STILL
BIG DIFFERENCE AMONGST THE MODELS IN TERMS OF INSTABILITY/MID LEVEL
LAPSE RATES. POTENTIAL ORGANIZED MCS TUESDAY NIGHT WILL DICTATE
THE SEVERE CHANCES ON WEDNESDAY...AS TIMING OF THE COLD FRONT
VARIES A BIT (GFS FASTER...EURO SLOWER)...BUT 850-700 THETA-E
RIDGE AXIS SHOULD BE SOUTH OF THE BORDER AROUND 18Z
WEDNESDAY...EVEN WITH THE SLOWER EURO...SUGGESTING THE SEVERE
THREAT WILL BE PREDOMINATELY SOUTH OF THE BORDER.

A NORTHERN STREAM TROUGH AXIS DROPPING SOUTH FROM ONTARIO ON
THURSDAY COULD TOUCH OFF ISOLATED SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY...BUT
LARGE SURFACE HIGH/ANTICYCLONIC FLOW BUILDING IN WILL TEND TO
MITIGATE THE COVERAGE/THREAT...AS DAYTIME MIXING/INCREASING BOUNDARY
LAYER LEADS TO DEW PTS FALLING INTO THE LOWER 50S.

SHORTWAVE AT THE BASE OF THE TROUGH AXIS WILL TEND TO CLOSE OFF OVER
THE EASTERN OHIO VALLEY/EASTERN GREAT LAKES...THEN RETROGRADE TO THE
SOUTHWEST/WEST OVER THE WEEKEND...SIMILAR TO THIS PAST UPPER LEVEL
LOW CENTER. AT THIS POINT...FAVORING THE 500 MB LOW TO BE FAR ENOUGH
TO OUR SOUTH TO MAINTAIN DRY WEATHER...AND WILL THUS FAVOR WARMER
HIGH TEMPERATURES UNDERNEATH THE RIDGE AXIS EXTENDING FROM THE
CENTRAL PLAINS. HIGHS IN THE MID 80S TO AROUND 90 DEGREES DOES NOT
SEEM LIKE MUCH OF A STRETCH WITH 1000-500 MB THICKNESSES RISING
ABOVE 570 DAM...BUT WILL STILL NEED TO BE A BIT CAUTIOUS UNTIL THE
EXACT POSITION OF THE DEVELOPING 500 MB LOW IS PINNED DOWN.

MARINE...

THE MAIN CONCERN FOR MARINE INTERESTS WILL BE THE ACTIVE
THUNDERSTORM PATTERN EXPECTED TODAY INTO WEDNESDAY. OTHERWISE, WIND
AND WAVE CONDITIONS WILL BE GENERALLY FAVORABLE THROUGH THE FIRST
HALF OF THE WEEK. A COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH LAKE
HURON AND LOWER MICHIGAN WEDNESDAY USHERING IN A FRESH NORTHWEST
WIND AND MODEST WAVE RESPONSE BEFORE HIGH PRESSURE SETTLES OVER THE
REGION BY THURSDAY.
