.KEY MESSAGES...

- Continued dry weather with a gradual warming trend through the
rest of the week.

.AVIATION...
High pressure extending across the eastern Great Lakes will maintain
its influence across Se Mi through the TAF period. Subtle moisture
influence off the lakes will support FEW to SCT VFR based afternoon
cu across mainly the eastern portions of Se Mi. Otherwise, light
south-southeast winds will prevail through the TAF period.
THRESHOLD PROBABILITIES...
* None

DISCUSSION...
Despite rising geopotential heights, a remnant steep 900-700mb lapse
rate pocket combined with moisture fluxing off of the Great Lakes
has led to some isolated lake effect shower activity on the downwind
portions of Lake Huron and Lake Erie. Models strongly suggest that
increasing thickness will erase any lingering midlevel instability
very rapidly during the next 3 to 6 hours. No shower activity is
anticipated over Southeast Michigan. Climatological considerations
with clear skies and nil fog brings concern for shallow ground fog
this morning particularly outside of the Detroit urban heat island.
Will monitor visibility trends this morning.
Center of midlevel high pressure will push across portions of
northern Lower Michigan today resulting in strongly anticyclonic and
isentropic downglide trajectories today. Strong signal exists in the
model soundings for both a warming and drying of the midlevels.
Really expecting full insolation today with highs right around 70
degrees.  Another outstanding day on Tuesday with return flow
gradually becoming established out of the south and southeast. Not
expecting much moisture transport which will give another of nearly
full insolation. Highs Tuesday will take a good bump upward into the
middle 70s. An extended run of warmer (highs around 80/low 80s) and
low humidity (dewpoints in the 40s to 50s) will then carry the area
through at least Saturday. Only feature to monitor is a washed
out/frontolytic cold front that will settle and stall out over Lower
Michigan late Wednesday through Friday. This boundary will be on the
southern edge of a cold Canadian high pressure system that does not
show any equatorward push. Looks like a high predictability
feature with model guidance keeping it bottled up north.
MARINE...
Upper level ridging continues to build into the region for the start
of the new week. Surface high pressure has also moved into the
region from the south which will back the winds to the south for
today. This will provide a break from the cooler pattern we`ve been
in the last week as warm advection brings stability to the waters. A
cold front will drift into the northern Great Lakes Tuesday and
stall out and weaken through Wednesday. This could provide some
showers and gusty southwesterly winds across northern Lake Huron but
high pressure will dominate most of the region through mid week.
