    Mesoscale Discussion 0177

    0710 PM CST Sat Mar 09 2019

    Areas affected...Central portions of the Lower Michigan

    Concerning...Freezing rain

    Valid 100110Z - 100515Z

    SUMMARY...Freezing rain is expected to continue, mainly for
    southern/central regions of Lower Michigan for the next few hours,
    before a transition to mainly rain later in the evening.

    DISCUSSION...Sfc-700 WAA and large scale ascent, associated with an
    approaching surface cyclone and potent negatively tilted mid-level
    shortwave trough, have encouraged the maintenance of an east-west
    oriented northward propagating band of heavy precipitation.
    Beneath/ahead of the aforementioned precip band, surface
    temperatures have been hovering around the freezing mark across
    central parts of Lower Michigan and near Detroit. Aloft, a
    near/above freezing temperature profile was noted up to 850-700 mb
    per latest RAP forecast soundings and the 00Z DTX observed sounding.

    The current thermodynamic vertical profile suggests that freezing
    rain will be the dominant mode of precipitation in the short term,
    as supported by KARB/KJXN ASOS data, where freezing rain rates of
    .05-.10 inches/hr have been observed within the past hour. Surface
    WAA however, is ushering in above freezing temperatures into
    southwest Lower Michigan, and this trend is expected to continue. As
    such, while freezing rain (occasionally heavy) is likely in the
    near-term, an overall transition to rain is likely between 03-06Z,
    as also supported by latest HRRR guidance.
