PATTERN SYNOPSIS/FORECAST: OMEGA BLOCKING ACROSS NOAM BEGINS TO SHOW
SIGNS OF BREAKING DOWN STARTING TOMORROW (TUESDAY) WITH FULL-ON
UPPER-LEVEL PATTERN REORIENTATION ACCOMPLISHED BY THURSDAY. SURFACE
HIGH PRESSURE WILL DOMINATE LOCALLY THROUGH THE THURSDAY TIME FRAME.
BY THURSDAY NIGHT INTO THE UPCOMING WEEKEND, POTENTIAL GROWS FOR

WITH AN EVENTUAL INCREASE IN OCCASIONAL SHOWER/STORM CHANCES.

SUNSHINE ANTICIPATED WITH SEASONABLY WARM TEMPERATURES (70S AND LOW
80S) TODAY AND TUESDAY RISING INTO THE MID-UPPER 80S FOR MUCH OF
NORTHERN LOWER FOR WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY. PRIMARY AREA OF CONCERN
THROUGH THURSDAY CONTINUES TO REVOLVE AROUND ELEVATED FIRE DANGER
DUE TO LITTLE/NO RECENT RAINFALL, LOW AFTERNOON RELATIVE HUMIDITY
AND OCCASIONAL DAYTIME BREEZINESS.
NON-ZERO LOCALIZED/PATCHY FROST THREAT TONIGHT AND AGAIN TUESDAY

INTERIOR SPOTS MAY FALL TO THE LOW-MID 30S EACH OF THESE NIGHTS WITH
IMPRESSIVE 35-40+ DEGREE DIURNAL TEMPERATURE SWINGS. CERTAINLY NOT
ANTICIPATING THESE TEMPERATURES TO BE WIDESPREAD ENOUGH TO WARRANT A
FROST ADVISORY, BUT STILL SOMETHING TO NOTE FOR THOSE TYPICAL ICEBOX
LOCATIONS LIKE GRAYLING, ROSCOMMON, ATLANTA, MIO, PELLSTON, ETC.
WINDS TURN OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST ON THURSDAY IN ADVANCE OF A SLOWLY
APPROACHING SYSTEM FROM THE WEST. EVENTUAL MOISTURE RETURN
ANTICIPATED BY LATER THURSDAY NIGHT/FRIDAY INTO THE UPCOMING
WEEKEND. WHILE MUCH OF THE ENS GUIDANCE SUITE PAINTS AT LEAST SOME
PRECIPITATION AT VARIOUS TIMES DURING THE LATE WEEK/WEEKEND TIME
FRAME, A FAIRLY SIZABLE SPREAD EXISTS WITH RESPECT TO COVERAGE AND
RAIN AMOUNTS. THAT SAID, THIS'LL BE THE FIRST RAIN CHANCES IN 10+
DAYS HIGHER CONFIDENCE EXISTS IN SEASONABLY WARM TEMPERATURES
CONTINUE.
