(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus63 kdlh 211508 afddlh area forecast discussion national weather service duluth mn 1008 am cdt Wed aug 21 2019 Short term (today through Thursday) issued at 430 am cdt Wed aug 21 2019 an upper low was centered just west of james bay this morning with a shortwave diving southeast toward the northland. This shortwave will move through the region later today into tonight and we expect an increase in cloud cover over far northern minnesota this afternoon and but we expect dry conditions. Cooler temperatures have moved into the region and highs today will range from 65 to 70 over far northern minnesota, to 70 to 75 from the brainerd lakes into northwest wisconsin. The shortwave will continue through the northland tonight and again we kept the forecast dry. We expect lows in the forties for most areas and would have gone colder over far northern minnesota including the arrowhead and iron range but there will be at least some clouds around due to the shortwave. Surface high pressure will move east on Thursday causing surface winds to become east to northeast. Speeds will be less than 10 mph for most areas but be locally higher in the twin PORTS area. We expect more clouds due to an increasing cumulus field with surface heating. It will be another cool day with highs in the mid sixties to around seventy. Long term (Thursday night through Tuesday) issued at 257 am cdt Wed aug 21 2019 cool and dry start to the long term with high pressure over the region. Low temperatures on Thursday night could lower into the upper 30s to low 40s east of the iron range and gogebic range due to clear skies and cool air advected in. As the high moves eastward, temperatures begin to warm into this weekend as developing southerly flow advects warm, moist air to the upper midwest. Model guidance has been trending a slower progression of the next chance for rain for this weekend keeping an upper ridge and drier air over the northern plains stalling the longwave trough attempting to build in and its associated shortwaves. Best chance for precipitation now looks like it will occur from Saturday night into Monday. On Monday, guidance is in agreement of developing a surface low over manitoba but differ in location and track. Due to the influx of warm, moist air, upper level pattern and surface cold front, there could be a potential for strong to |
severe storm development on Sunday Monday. With showers and thunderstorms lingering over the area from Sunday to potentially into Tuesday and pw values approaching 2 inches, may also have to monitor heavy rain and flooding potential. Aviation (for the 12z tafs through 12z Thursday morning) issued at 637 am cdt Wed aug 21 2019 after the fog lifts in the next couple of hours,VFR conditions prevail through the TAF period as high pressure builds into the region. Breezy winds develop this afternoon with gusts of 15-20kts possible. A few cumulus clouds may develop in the afternoon. Clouds increase across northern minnesota ahead of an upper level disturbance moving through southern ontario tonight. Marine Issued at 1008 am cdt Wed aug 21 2019 no hazardous marine conditions are expected through the next 48 hours. No chance for precipitation across western lake superior through Friday as high pressure builds across the upper great lakes late this week. West winds today around 10 to 12 knots will weaken slightly and become more northerly tonight at 5 to 10 knots, then northeast to easterly on Thursday at 5 to 10 knots, slightly stronger at the head of the lake where gusts up to 15 knots are possible Thursday afternoon. East winds around 5 knots Thursday night into early Friday, increasing to 5 to 10 knots Friday afternoon. Wave heights remaining less than two feet through the rest of the work week.

It is not checked for accuracy either by anyone at L-36.com or by the source which is typically the US Government. See the NOAA web site for their disclaimer. Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
