SECOND MCS REMAINS ACTIVE...BUT IS ALSO BEGINNING TO DIMINISH IN INTENSITY. WHILE THIS TREND MAY CONTINUE...IT IS UNLIKELY THAT IT WILL COMPLETELY DISSIPATE LIKE ITS PREDECESSOR GIVEN THE UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT THAT IS HELPING IT ALONG AS MAJOR SHORTWAVE PIVOTS INTO THE GREAT LAKES. INITIAL THOUGHT...GIVEN RADAR TRENDS BETWEEN 11 PM AND 2 AM...IS THAT REMAINING POCKETS OF SEVERE WEATHER...AKA WIND GUSTS INTO THE 50-60 MPH RANGE...WILL DISAPPEAR GRADUALLY WITH SUB-SEVERE ACTIVITY THEN CROSSING SOUTHEAST LOWER MICHIGAN OVERNIGHT WITH WIND GUSTS OF 40 MPH OR LESS IN GENERAL ALONG WITH POCKETS OF HEAVY RAINFALL AND INTENSE LIGHTNING. WILL MAINTAIN HIGH POPS OVERNIGHT INTO EARLY TUESDAY WITH THE THE COLD POOL OF THIS SYSTEM LIKELY FOCUSING CATEGORICAL POPS OVER THE NORTHERN CWA WITH SCATTERED/NUMEROUS SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS ALSO EXTENDING FURTHER SOUTH INTO THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA. ALL OF THIS ACTIVITY WILL WEAKEN AND EXIT THE REGION BETWEEN 12Z-15Z WITH SKIES THEN CLEARING WITH TIME DURING THE DAY. WITH MAIN UPPER TROUGH AXIS STILL POSITIONED WELL TO THE WEST OF THE AREA...CLEARING SKIES WILL LEAD TO TEMPERATURES IN THE 80S TO AROUND 90 AS SOUTHWEST FLOW BECOMES ESTABLISHED. DRIER/COOLER AIRMASS WILL BEGIN TO SLOWLY EDGE INTO THE AREA LATE TODAY INTO TONIGHT...SO LOWS WILL BE MORE REASONABLE...IN THE LOWER/MID 60S...TONIGHT. && .LONG TERM... QUIET LONG TERM PERIOD IN STORE AS PROGRESSIVE LONGWAVE TROUGHING USHERS IN A COOLER AND DRIER AIRMASS FOR THE END OF THE WEEK. H85 TEMPERATURES WILL BE ON THE DECLINE THROUGH WEDNESDAY AS A SECONDARY FRONTAL ZONE WORKS THROUGH THE AREA. LOW-LEVEL COLD ADVECTION AND EARLY JULY HEATING WILL RESULT IN DEEP MIXING WORTHY OF A PESSIMISTIC SKY COVER FORECAST FOR THE DAYTIME HOURS ON WEDNESDAY AS AGGRESSIVE EXPANSION OF DIURNAL CLOUD COVER IS EXPECTED... PARTICULARLY IN THE PRESENCE OF THE PASSING SURFACE TROUGH AXIS. NO ARGUMENTS WITH DOWNWARD ADJUSTMENT IN POPS FOR WEDNESDAY AS SHOWER COVERAGE WILL BE INHIBITED BY SIGNIFICANT MID-LEVEL DRY AIR. FOR NOW, WORTH NO MORE THAN A CHANCE POP. BENEATH ABUNDANT CLOUDS AND WITHIN A FRESH AIRMASS HIGHS WILL REACH ONLY THE LOW 70S WITH OVERNIGHT LOWS FALLING WELL INTO THE 50S IN MOST SPOTS...PERHAPS UPPER 40S IN THE SAGINAW VALLEY. THURSDAY WILL BE THE COOLEST DAY OF THE WEEK WITH THE THERMAL TROUGH DIRECTLY OVERHEAD. SUFFICIENT MOISTURE WILL REMAIN FOR PARTIAL COVERAGE OF DIURNAL CU, WHICH WILL HELP KEEP HIGHS LIMITED TO THE LOW 70S...UPPER 60S IN THE THUMB. HEIGHT FALLS WILL COMMENCE FOR WEEK'S END AS THE TROUGH SHIFTS EAST AND HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS INTO THE GREAT LAKES. THIS WILL SPELL A GRADUAL WARMING TREND AS THE AIRMASS SLOWLY MODERATES THROUGH THE WEEKEND. && .MARINE... LIGHT TO MODERATE SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL TURN SOUTHWEST AND THEN WEST TODAY INTO WEDNESDAY AS COLD FRONT SLIDES THROUGH THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES THIS MORNING. THIS WILL RESULT IN A ROUND OF THUNDERSTORMS...POSSIBLY SEVERE FOR THE WATERS SOUTH OF LAKE HURON...DURING THE PREDAWN HOURS THIS MORNING. LATER TODAY SOUTHWEST WINDS WILL GUST TO AROUND 20 KNOTS OVER SAGINAW BAY. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY MAY BE NEEDED BUT THE POTENTIAL IS TOO MARGINAL TO WARRANT ISSUANCE AT THIS TIME. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES BY THE END OF THE WORK WEEK. && .AVIATION...ISSUED 122 AM EDT TUE JUL 1 2014 //DISCUSSION... RECENT RADAR TRENDS CONTINUE TO INDICATE THE NORTHERN EXTENT OF THE EASTWARD PROPAGATION CONVECTIVE LINE WILL SHIFT THROUGH THE DETROIT CORRIDOR 07Z-08Z.
