AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE DETROIT/PONTIAC MI
118 PM EDT SUN JUL 27 2014
.AVIATION...
//DISCUSSION...
PRIMARY NEAR TERM CHALLENGE WILL BE TIMING THUNDERSTORMS THIS
AFTERNOON. INSTABILITY HAS DEVELOPED WITH POCKETS OF STRONGER
HEATING IN CLOUD BREAKS...ESPECIALLY FROM FNT SOUTH. A SURFACE
TROUGH IS LOCATED ROUGHLY FROM GAYLORD TO MUSKEGON AS OF 17Z AND
PUSHING EASTWARD. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP ALONG AND POSSIBLY AHEAD OF THIS FRONT. THE MOST LIKELY
TIMING FOR TSRA THREAT WILL BEGIN BY 18Z FOR MBS...19Z FOR
FNT/PTK...AND 20Z FOR THE I-94 TERMINALS. HAVE LEFT IN INHERITED
3-HR TEMPO TO COVER THIS...AND WILL AMEND AS NECESSARY. THERE IS A
SLIGHT CHANCE OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS THIS AFTERNOON...WITH LARGE
HAIL...GUSTY WINDS...AND HEAVY RAIN POSSIBLE.
WINDS WILL VEER NORTHERLY THIS EVENING BEHIND THE TROUGH/COLD
FRONT PASSAGE...WITH LINGERING SHOWERS POSSIBLE. SOME MVFR STRATUS
IS EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT. THIS WILL MIX OUT BY LATE MORNING/EARLY
AFTERNOON...BUT A HEALTHY COVERAGE OF VFR STRATOCU IS
EXPECTED...ALONG WITH GUSTY NORTHERLY WINDS TO 20 KT.
FOR DTW...BEST TIME FRAME FOR TSRA LOOKS TO BE 20-23Z. THERE IS A
SLIGHT CHANCE THAT A SEVERE STORM COULD AFFECT THE TERMINAL...WITH
LARGE HAIL...GUSTY WINDS...AND HEAVY RAINFALL. CONFIDENCE IS LOW
ON SEVERE POTENTIAL. BEST ESTIMATE FOR TIMING OF MVFR STRATUS
DEVELOPMENT IS 07Z TONIGHT. CLOUD BASES WILL LIFT LATE TOMORROW
MORNING...BUT CIGS OF AOB 5KFT ARE EXPECTED FOR THE MAJORITY OF
THE DAY...WITH GUSTY NNW WINDS TO 20KT DEVELOPING BY LATE MORNING.
//DTW THRESHOLD THREATS...
* MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT AND TIMING THIS
AFTERNOON.
* MEDIUM CONFIDENCE IN CEILING BELOW 5000 FEET LATE TONIGHT THROUGH
MONDAY AFTERNOON.

.PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED 1013 AM EDT SUN JUL 27 2014
UPDATE...
LOW CLOUDS AND FOG EARLY THIS MORNING HAS HELP SHORTEN OUR WINDOW
OF OPPORTUNITY TO DESTABILIZE...AS ACCELERATING HEIGHT FALLS ARE
NOW OCCURRING OVER LOWER MICHIGAN...WITH MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES
ALLOWING FOR DEVELOPING SHOWERS...WHICH SHOULD CONTINUE TO BLOSSOM
THIS AFTERNOON. STILL...IF ANY SUFFICIENT POCKETS OF CLEARING
OCCURS...THE RAPIDLY COOLING MID LEVELS/DYNAMIC FORCING STILL
COULD PROVE SUFFICIENT FOR SEVERE CELLS TO DEVELOP. ZONES IN
DECENT SHAPE AND ANY UPDATE WILL BE MINOR REVISIONS.
PREV DISCUSSION...ISSUED 358 AM EDT SUN JUL 27 2014
SHORT TERM...TODAY AND TONIGHT
UPPER LOW DROPPING FROM CANADA INTO MINNESOTA THIS MORNING WILL
CONTINUE TO TRACK SOUTHEAST AND INTO MICHIGAN BY 00Z/8PM TODAY.
SURFACE LOW TRACKING AHEAD OF THIS FEATURE WILL SLIDE ACROSS
MICHIGAN AHEAD OF THE UPPER CIRCULATION. BY 15Z/10AM...EXPECT THE
LOW TO BE CENTERED OVER LAKE MICHIGAN WITH AN ELEVATED WARM FRONT
SITUATED FROM NORTH-CENTRAL LOWER MICHIGAN DOWN ACROSS THE
THUMB...AND THE SURFACE COLD FRONT STILL BACK OVER WISCONSIN. BOTH
FRONTAL FEATURES WILL BE THE FOCUS FOR ACTIVITY EARLY TODAY...WITH
SHOWERS/TSTORMS FIRST EXPECTED TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE TRI-CITIES AND
THUMB DURING THE LATE MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOON AS CONVERGENCE
INCREASES ALONG THE ELEVATED FRONT. THE WHOLE SYSTEM WILL THEN DROP
SOUTH AND EAST TOWARDS LAKE ERIE...PULLING A WEDGE OF COLDER AIR
DOWN INTO SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN BEHIND IT...AND LIKELY BRINGING
SHOWERS/TSTORMS TO THE WHOLE AREA.
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES TO START TODAY WILL AID IN DESTABILIZATION BEFORE
UPPER HEIGHT FALLS RAMP UP DURING THE AFTERNOON AND THE COLD FRONT
APPROACHES. MODEL FORECASTS FOR ML/SB CAPE LOOK TO REACH BETWEEN
1500-2500 J/KG BY THE TIME THE CAP ERODES BETWEEN 14-15Z (PER NAM
SOUNDINGS). THERE WILL ALSO BE A FAIRLY STRONG UPPER JET...100
KNOTS...THAT DIVES SOUTH INTO THE OHIO VALLEY DURING THE AFTERNOON
AND EVENING...PLACING SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN WITHIN LEFT EXIT REGION
FORCING BEFORE IT SLIDES SOUTH THROUGH THE EVENING. A STRONGER CORE
OF MID-LEVEL WINDS WILL ALSO DIVE INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. THE AXIS OF
STRONGER WINDS WILL REMAIN TO OUR SOUTH...BUT WILL STILL INCREASE
SHEAR OVER THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA TODAY AS IT
BRUSHES BY. ALTHOUGH 0-1KM SHEAR WILL BE QUITE LOW...UNDER 10
KNOTS...0-6KM SHEAR WILL RUN FAIRLY HIGH AT 40-45 KNOTS. THE
COMBINATION OF INSTABILITY AND SHEAR WILL BRING THE THREAT FOR
SEVERE WEATHER TODAY. THE THREAT WILL HOWEVER DECREASE FROM NORTH TO
SOUTH FROM MID/LATE-AFTERNOON THROUGH THIS EVENING AS
SHEAR/INSTABILITY SHOW SIMILAR TRENDS. THE OVERALL SEVERE THREAT FOR
ALL OF SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN LOOKS TO TAPER OFF BY 8 PM...WITH THE
THREAT NORTH OF I-69 LOOKING TO TAPER OFF BY 5 PM. FORECAST
SOUNDINGS INITIALLY SUPPORT A LARGE HAIL THREAT WITH FAT CAPE AND
LOW FREEZING LEVELS...AS WELL AS A DAMAGING WIND THREAT WITH A DRY
SUB-CLOUD LAYER AND HIGH 0-6KM SHEAR. SOUNDINGS THEN SHOW A N-S
TRANSITION TO TALL AND SKINNY CAPE AS COOLER AIR WORKS IN AT THE
LOWER-LEVELS DURING THE LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING...THEN SUPPORTING A
HEAVY RAIN THREAT AS PW VALUES REMAIN UP NEAR 1.5 INCHES. WHILE
SEVERE WEATHER WILL BE POSSIBLE ACROSS ALL OF SOUTHEAST MICHIGAN
TODAY...BETTER POTENTIAL WILL BE LOCATED SOUTH OF THE I-69 CORRIDOR
AS THIS AREA WILL HAVE MORE TIME TO DESTABILIZE BEFORE THE COLD
FRONT WORKS ACROSS.
MOISTURE WILL CONTINUE TO WRAP AROUND THE LOW AS IT DROPS SOUTHEAST
OF THE AREA TONIGHT. WE SHOULD ALSO SEE SOME RAIN (WITH A FEW
EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS) CONTINUE IN THE DEFORMATION AREA ON THE
NORTH SIDE OF THE SYSTEM THROUGH THE EVENING AND INTO THE OVERNIGHT
HOURS. DRIER AIR WILL WORK IN AT THE MID-LEVELS LATE
TONIGHT...ALLOWING RAIN TO TAPER OFF. FOG THREAT SHOULD BE MITIGATED
AS NORTHERLY WINDS CONTINUE BEHIND THE FRONT AT AROUND 10 MPH
TONIGHT.
TEMPERATURES THIS AFTERNOON SHOULD WARM UP AROUND 80...WHICH WILL
FEEL MUGGY WHEN COMBINED WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE MID/UPPER 60S. LOWS
TONIGHT WILL BE HELD UP BY SATURATED SOILS AND LINGERING
CLOUDS/RAIN...DESPITE H850 TEMPS FALLING TO BELOW 10C. THIS SHOULD
PROVIDE MIN TEMPS IN THE MID 50S TO LOW 60S.
LONG TERM...
A RETURN TO BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES WILL HIGHLIGHT WEATHER
CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT THE UPCOMING WEEK. MONDAY WILL BE THE COOLEST
DAY AS HIGHS STRUGGLE TO REACH 70 FOLLOWED BY ABOUT A CATEGORY OF
MODERATION EACH DAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY AND THEN HOLDING IN THE MID TO
UPPER 70S ALL THE WAY INTO NEXT WEEKEND. THE TEMPERATURE MODERATION
WILL BE VULNERABLE TO THE EVENTUAL COVERAGE OF SHOWERS WHICH WILL BE
POSSIBLE EACH DAY AS LATE JULY SURFACE HEATING MAINTAINS INSTABILITY
IN THE COOL AIR MASS.
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM AFFECTING THE AREA TODAY AND TONIGHT WILL
EXIT EAST BY SUNRISE MONDAY FOLLOWED BY MODERATE NORTHERLY FLOW AND
COLD ADVECTION THROUGH THE DAY. MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE ENOUGH
SUBSIDENCE WARMING AROUND 700 MB TO CONFINE CONVECTION TO ABOUT 800
MB OF BOUNDARY LAYER THROUGHOUT THE DAY...GOOD FOR GENEROUS COVERAGE
CUMULUS BUT NO RAIN. FORECASTS OF 850 MB TEMPS EITHER SIDE OF 7C
SUPPORT THE GOING FORECAST HIGHS MOSTLY IN THE UPPER 60S...POSSIBLY
70 IN THE DETROIT AREA TO OHIO BORDER...FAVORING BELOW GUIDANCE
VALUES. FOR SOME PERSPECTIVE...THE RECORDS FOR COOLEST MAX TEMPS ON
JULY 28TH: DTW 68/1926...FNT 64/1981...MBS 60/1981.
THE NEARLY MERIDIONAL HEIGHT GRADIENT ALOFT WILL MAINTAIN SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE PLAINS AND LIGHT NORTHWEST SURFACE WIND OVER
LOWER MICHIGAN MONDAY NIGHT. THE TENDENCY FOR DECOUPLING WILL BE
REDUCED BY THE NEXT SURGE OF UPPER LEVEL ENERGY IN THE NW FLOW
ALOFT...WELL AGREED UPON IN THE 00Z MODEL CYCLE...WHICH WILL SHARPEN
THE SURFACE PRESSURE GRADIENT DURING THE NIGHT AND BRING CLOUDS INTO
THE REGION LATE IN THE NIGHT. GUIDANCE MIN TEMPS IN THE UPPER 40S
LOOK REASONABLE IN THIS SCENARIO FOR THE TYPICALLY COOLER LOCATIONS
BUT MAY BE SLIGHTLY TOO COOL FOR THE REST OF THE REGION. THAT BEING
SAID...THE RECORD LOW FOR THE 29TH FOR MBS LOOKS REACHABLE AT
48/1965 AND EVEN FOR DTW 50/1971 BUT NOT FNT AT 42/1928.
CONTINUED SOUTHWARD MOVEMENT OF THE UPPER LEVEL HEIGHT FALL CENTER
TUESDAY WILL COMBINE WITH SURFACE HEATING FOR A CHANCE OF SHOWERS IN
BETWEEN POCKETS OF SUNSHINE. LOW LEVEL MOISTURE WILL BE ADEQUATE FOR
A RUMBLE OF THUNDER AS 850 MB DEWPOINT IS SHOWN TO HOVER IN THE
UPPER SINGLE DIGITS(C). MODEL SOUNDINGS INDICATE SKINNY CAPE
EXTENDING ABOVE -20C BUT ARE OTHERWISE UNIMPRESSIVE. GIVEN THE
POTENTIAL FOR CLOUDS AND SCATTERED SHOWERS...MAX TEMPS IN THE LOWER
70S WOULD SEEM LIKE A STRETCH IF NOT FOR THE EQUAL POTENTIAL FOR
SUNSHINE AND SURFACE HEATING.
THE LARGE UPPER LOW/TROUGH WILL REMAIN IN PLACE OVER THE EASTERN
THIRD OF NORTH AMERICA WEDNESDAY THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK...BUT
PREDICTABILITY DROPS OFF ON THE DETAILS OF THE UPPER AIR PATTERN IN
THE MODEL SOLUTIONS. THE GENERAL PATTERN OF DAYTIME INSTABILITY
SUPPORTING SCATTERED SHOWERS LOOKS SOLID UNDER THE UPPER LEVEL COLD
POOL THAT WILL PERSIST EACH DAY...BUT WITH SLUGS OF DRY AIR AND
NEUTRAL FLOW MODULATING ACTIVITY.
MARINE...
EXPECT THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY TO STEADILY INCREASE COVERAGE AND
INTENSITY AS THE DAY PROGRESSES. SEVERE WEATHER POTENTIAL REMAINS
MAINLY OVER THE SOUTH HALF OF LAKE HURON THROUGH WESTERN LAKE ERIE
DURING THE MID AFTERNOON HOURS. WIND AND WAVE ACTION WILL OTHERWISE
BE FAVORABLE THROUGH TODAY BEFORE A COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH THE
REGION TONIGHT. NORTHERLY WINDS WILL RAMP UP BEHIND THE FRONT...
PEAKING WITH 30 KNOT GUSTS OVER SOUTHERN LAKE HURON MONDAY. A SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY IS IN EFFECT MONDAY MORNING THROUGH MIDNIGHT MONDAY
NIGHT AS THE LONG NORTH FETCH WILL BE FAVORABLE FOR BUILDING LARGE
WAVES THAT WILL IMPACT THE SOUTH HALF OF LAKE HURON AND NEARSHORE
MARINE ZONES. COOL HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD INTO THE NORTHERN
PLAINS AND GREAT LAKES AND RETURN BENIGN MARINE WEATHER FOR THE MID
WEEK PERIOD.
