.AVIATION...18Z TAFS
IFR/LIFR CIGS/VIS WILL PERSIST AT SBN/FWA THROUGH THIS EVENING AS
STRONG INVERSION REMAINS LOCKED IN WITH WARM MOIST AIR OVERRIDING
SFC BOUNDARY NEAR THE INTERSTATE 70 CORRIDOR. EXPECT PERIODS OF
RAIN THROUGH MIDNIGHT...ESPECIALLY THIS EVENING INTO THE EARLY
MORNING HOURS AS MODELS HINT AT DECENT FGEN FORCING WITH SRN
PLAINS SHRTWV TRACKING NORTHEASTWARD. CWA ALSO LOCATED IN THE
RIGHT ENTRANCE REGION OF THE UPPER JET. FCST SOUNDINGS INDICATE
THAT THE PRECIP MAY END AS A PERIOD OF SN AT SBN AFTER 06Z. FOG
MAY BECOME AN ISSUE THROUGH 03Z AT FWA AS SFC BOUNDARY NEARS WITH
CALM SURFACE WINDS AND ABUNDANT LLV MOISTURE. WILL NOT INCLUDE FOG
IN THIS ISSUANCE PER UPSTREAM OBS. NRN STREME WAVE WILL DRIVE A
CDFNT THRU WITH SUBSIDENCE AND THEREFORE IMPROVING CIGS/VIS IN ITS

.PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 430 AM EST TUE DEC 11 2007/

SHORT TERM...
SHRTWV LIFTING NE OUT OF DEEP SWRN U.S. TROF COMBINED WITH HIGH
PRES OVER ERN U.S. HAS RESULTED IN STRONG LLJ DVLPG TONIGHT FROM
TX TO WRN IL. FRONTAL BOUNDARY WHICH HAS BEEN NEARLY STNRY OVER
THE OH VALLEY FOR LAST SEVERAL DAYS HAS BEGUN TO LIFT SLOWLY NORTH IN
RESPONSE. WIDESPREAD FREEZING RAIN OCRG NORTH OF THIS FRONT WAS
MOVG INTO OUR CWA ATTM. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE SRN MOST TIER OF
OUR COUNTIES... TEMPS ARE BELOW FREEZING ACROSS OUR AREA WITH
LIGHT SELY WINDS. EXPECT THIS AREA OF PRECIP MOVG IN WILL RESULT
IN TEMPS HOLDING STEADY MUCH OF THE MORNING. MODELS INDICATE FRONTAL
BOUNDARY WILL LIFT INTO THE SERN PORTION OF THE CWA TODAY. WITH
SFC WAA RATHER WK NORTH OF THIS FRONT AND PRECIP AND MELTING
PROCESS ALSO LIMITING HEATING, BELIEVE COLDER RUC TEMPS ARE BETTER
THAN NAM/GFS ACROSS NRN PORTIONS OF THE AREA. QPF HAS CONSISTENTLY
BEEN SUPPORTIVE OF ICE STORM WARNING OVER THE AREA PROVIDING TEMPS
STAY BLO FREEZING FOR MUCH OF THE EVENT... WHICH STILL APPEARS TO
BE PLAUSIBLE ALONG MI BORDER. THUS CONTINUED WITH ICE STORM
WARNING NORTH AND FREEZING RAIN ADVISORY FOR MUCH OF THE REST OF
THE CWA TODAY.

A COLD FRONT OVER THE NRN PLAINS THIS MORNING WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST
ACROSS THE AREA THIS AFTN... PUSHING THE STRONG BAROCLINIC ZONE
E-SE OVERNIGHT. STRONG FGEN FORCING FORCING AS THESE FRONTS MERGE
TONIGHT AND UPPER LEVEL DIVERGENCE ASSOCIATED WITH RIGHT ENTRANCE
REGION OF H250 JET MOVG OVERHEAD WILL RESULT IN DEEP FGEN FORCING
CAUSING PRECIP TO CONT FOR SEVERAL HOURS BEHIND THE CDFNT. THIS
COMBINED WITH CAA MAY ALLOW FOR A CHANGE OVER BACK TO FREEZING
RAIN OR SNOW BEFORE ENDING.

LONG TERM...
WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY.

FOCUS OF OVERNIGHT PACKAGE WAS ON PERIOD THROUGH THURSDAY WITH
DEPARTURE OF LIFT AND MSTR WITH SIG WAVE. MODELS TRENDING MUCH
FASTER WITH EASTWARD PUSH OF ISENTROPIC LIFT AND ASSOCIATED
PRECIPITATION. AFTER COLLABORATION HAVE REMOVED POPS FROM ALL AREA
ON WEDS EXCEPT FAR SE FOR FIRST FEW HOURS AND DECREASED CLOUDS
SOMEWHAT.

THEN FOCUS TURNS TO ANOTHER WAVE TO MOVE ALONG THE FRONT. SEVERAL
SOLUTIONS IN PLACE FROM LOW TRACKING CLOSE TO THE CWA TO WELL SE OF
THE AREA. THIS GIVES ANYTHING FROM A GOOD SHOT FOR MODERATE TO MAYBE
HEAVY SNOWFALL TO AT BEST FLURRIES. SETUP DIFFERENT THAN PAST FEW
EVENTS AS MUCH LESS WARM AIR TO BE FOUND IN LOW LEVELS THIS TIME
AROUND. AS A RESULT SOUNDINGS LEAN TOWARDS MAINLY SNOW. IN SE
COUNTIES COULD BE SOME FREEZING PRECIP BUT HAVE NOT WENT REAL CRAZY
WITH THINGS. ENOUGH CERTAINTY FOR SE AREAS TO START RAMPING UP POPS
TO LIKELY TOWARDS THURS AM WITH BULK OF PRECIP LOOKING TO BE THURS
AM WHEN LIKELY POPS TO COVER SE HALF OF THE CWA. KEPT PRECIP QUICKLY
ENDING THURS AFTERNOON BUT LIKELY POPS MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED
FURTHER IF SLOWER TREND PREVAILS. QPF VALUES RANGE FROM MAYBE A FEW
TENTHS TO OVER A HALF INCH FROM NW TO SE. HAVE STAYED ON THE LOWER
SIDE FOR THE MOST PART AND ADDED SOME EARLY ACCUMULATIONS FOR
SNOWFALL.

HAVE NOT MADE ANY CHANGED BEYOND THURSDAY DUE TO IMPLICATIONS OF
THIS LAST SYSTEM KEY IN THE OVERALL THERMAL SETUP AS WELL AS SFC
LOW LOCATION IN RELATION TO LAKE EFFECT POTENTIAL.
