- Fog Likely Tonight, Locally Dense Fog Possible

- Warmup into Wednesday With Low Rain Chances Mid-week

- Dry and Cool Late Week

.UPDATE...
Issued at 1035 PM EDT Sun May 24 2026

The entire cwa has been included in the dense fog advisory, which
is in effect until 11 am Monday. Visibilities continue to fall to
a quarter mile or less and given the generally clear skies and
little to no wind and recent rain, improvement isn`t expected
through the overnight hours.

.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 152 PM EDT Sun May 24 2026

- Fog Likely Tonight, Locally Dense Fog Possible

Rain showers and isolated thunderstorms associated with an occluded
front crossing the area should exit by early evening. Concern then
develops for fog overnight given low-level moisture from today`s
rain. Winds subside and skies begin to clear as high pressure
moves in tonight, with a favorable environment for fog development
resulting. Signals are present in guidance that pockets of
locally dense fog could develop depending on the extent of
clearing overnight and to what extent any sunshine today can mix.
Climatology suggests that given a strong sun angle in late May,
widespread dense fog is unlikely, matching the picture guidance
shows. We will continue to monitor trends going into tonight.

- Warmup into Wednesday With Low Rain Chances Mid-week

West Michigan sets up on the periphery of a large scale ridge
starting later Monday into Tuesday with the development of an omega
blocking pattern over the central CONUS. 850 mb temps warm into the
mid teens Celsius resulting in highs in the 80s. There are two low
chances of rain for the first half of the week. First is Monday
where convergence off Huron may pop an isolated shower across our
northeast CWA. Confidence is low, with PoPs 10% or less. Second is
Wednesday with the arrival of a backdoor cold front. Moisture
quality is marginal so only light precipitation is expected. Medium
range model guidance suggests enough MUCAPE will be present thunder
to be in play.

- Dry and Cool Late Week

The post backdoor cold frontal environment will be slightly
cooler than the first half of the week, with highs in the upper
70s likely. Compared to yesterday, guidance has trended towards
the warmer solution with 850mb temps in the low teens. The omega
blocking persists with a surface ridge in place across the region.
This keeps the forecast dry for the later portions of the week.

.AVIATION /06Z TAFS THROUGH 06Z TUESDAY/...
Issued at 128 AM EDT Mon May 25 2026

Dense fog has developed at all of the terminals quickly late last
evening/early this morning with nearly ideal conditions for its
development. Conditions will remain ideal through the night, so
have kept all sites at VLIFR conditions through 12z. Starting at
12z (due to early sunrises) we should start seeing improvement. We
have all sites going VFR by 14z. After that, just a few cumulus
clouds possible along with some thin high clouds will be about it
through this period. Winds will generally be from the SW up to 10
knots.

.MARINE...
Issued at 238 PM EDT Sun May 24 2026

Webcams show that fog has already developed across the nearshore
waters as of 230 pm Sunday afternoon and is already dense. Have
moved up the Dense Fog Advisory to start immediately.

--- Original Discussion ---

Primary concern for marine interests is the potential development
of fog across the waters tonight. Ample low-level moisture paired
with a approaching high pressure system looks to calm winds
enough for fog development overnight. Climatologically, the cooler
waters favor fog development, which is also supported by model
guidance. As a result, will be issuing a Marine Dense Fog Advisory
from late this evening through mid Monday morning.

As for winds and waves, Time/Height wind overviews suggest largely
that light winds and sub-advisory waves are expected over the next
several days. Winds in the 1-3kft range look to approach 30-35 kts
later Monday into Tuesday, however the strong warm air advection in
place suggests these winds won`t mix down. Other than the
aforementioned Marine Dense Fog Advisory, headlines are not
anticipated over the next week.
