AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
1234 PM EST SUN DEC 14 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
A STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL MOVE INTO THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES
TODAY. THE LOW WILL MOVE INTO SOUTHERN QUEBEC MONDAY...DRAGGING A
STRONG COLD FRONT ACROSS THE AREA.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
RAIN HAS STABILIZED THE ATMOSPHERE OVER MOST OF WESTERN AND
CENTRAL OHIO. EXPECT QUITE A FEW SHOWERS TO CONTINUE TODAY AND
SPREAD EAST ALTHOUGH RAIN WILL BE MOSTLY LIGHT. 12Z SOUNDING AT
ILN SEEMS SHOWS A STRONG LOW LEVEL INVERSION. LOW LEVEL JET ABOUT
65 KNOTS AT THE INVERSION HEIGHT BUT SHOULD WEAKEN SOME TODAY WITH
DIURNAL WIND CYCLE. WITH RAIN AND STABILIZING ATMOSPHERE THERE IS
A LESSENING THREAT OF WIND ADVISORY WIND GUSTS TODAY. STILL
EXPECT SOME GUSTS TO AROUND 40 MPH OR PERHAPS A LITTLE STRONGER ON
HILL TOPS AND THE LAKESHORE AND FAVORED SOUTH DOWNSLOPE LOCATIONS.

BETTER CHANCE FOR STRONGER WINDS LATER TONIGHT AHEAD OF THE COLD
FRONT AND WITH THE FRONTAL PASSAGE MONDAY MORNING. LOW LEVEL JET
PROGGED TO INCREASE TO 70 KNOTS AND THERE COULD BE A BREAK IN THE
RAIN FOR A WHILE AND EVEN A SMALL CHANCE FOR ELEVATED CONVECTION
WITH THE FRONT MONDAY MORNING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
EXPECT WINDS TO DECREASE SOMEWHAT OVERNIGHT...THEN RAMP BACK UP
LATER TONIGHT AND MONDAY MORNING AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT.

ALL MODELS CONTINUE TO MOVE THE COLD FRONT ACROSS THE AREA MONDAY.
THE GFS IS SOMEWHAT FASTER THAN THE NAM. FOR MY FORECAST LEANED
TOWARD THE GFS SINCE ECMWF SOLUTION VERY SIMILAR. EXPECT RAIN TO
DEVELOP OVERNIGHT...SPREADING ACROSS THE ENTIRE AREA MONDAY. EARLY
MORNING HIGHS WITH FALLING TEMPS DURING THE AFTERNOON. PROBABLY
SEE SOME SNOW IN THE WEST BY LATE AFTERNOON. MODELS A LITTLE
FASTER TODAY PUSHING IN THE DRIER AIR MONDAY NIGHT THEN PREVIOUS
RUNS.

MODELS STILL NOT IN AGREEMENT WITH THE TRACK AND TIMING OF THE
NEXT SYSTEM DUE WEDNESDAY. DOES APPEAR WIDESPREAD SNOW TO DEVELOP
ACROSS THE AREA TUESDAY NIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
PLENTY OF UNCERTAINTY IN THE MODELS THIS MORNING WITH THE MOVEMENT
OF STORM SYSTEMS THAT WILL AFFECT NORTHERN OHIO AND NW PA. HOWEVER
IT DOES APPEAR THAT AT SOME POINT WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON INTO EARLY
THURSDAY THERE WILL BE A BREAK BETWEEN STORM SYSTEMS. A STRONGER
STORM SYSTEM WILL APPROACH ON FRIDAY WITH A COLD FRONT MOVING ACROSS
THE AREA ON FRIDAY. SHOULD BE ON THE WARM SIDE OF THIS ONE WITH SOME
RAIN ON FRIDAY THEN BACK TO SNOW BY FRIDAY NIGHT.

FRIDAY LOOKS TO BE THE WARM DAY FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE WEEK WITH
HIGHS INTO THE 40S FOR MUCH OF THE AREA. OTHERWISE SEASONAL
TEMPERATURES ARE ANTICIPATED.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AN UPPER DISTURBANCE IS CURRENTLY MOVING ACROSS THE REGION. THIS
FEATURE HAS KICKED OFF THE SHRA THAT ARE CURRENTLY AFFECTING THE
TAF SITES. CIGS HAVE DIPPED TO MVFR AT KERI WHERE THE MOST
PERSISTENT RAIN HAS BEEN. THINK THE SHRA ACTIVITY WILL DIMINISH
SOME THIS AFTERNOON AND THEN PICK UP AGAIN THIS EVE AS A STRONG
SURFACE COLD FRONT APPROACHES. WILL SPREAD STEADIER RAIN BACK
ACROSS THE AREA THIS EVENING WITH CIGS AND VSBYS DIPPING TO THE
LOW END OF MVFR. MVFR CIGS AT KTOL WILL PROBABLY PERSIST THIS
AFTERNOON AS LOWER CLOUD EXTENDS WAY BACK WEST ACROSS IN AND IL.
EXPECT MVFR CIGS TO DEVELOP AT MOST LOCATIONS BY 00Z. WILL TRY TO
TIME THIS LOWERING ACROSS THE AREA. THE COLD FRONT SHOULD REACH
KTOL JUST BEFORE DAYBREAK MONDAY AND BE EAST OF THE AREA BY THE
END OF THE TAF PERIOD. CIGS AND VSBYS SHOULD IMPROVE SOME BEHIND
THE FRONT. NOW NOT EXPECTING A WHOLE LOT OF PRECIP BEHIND THE
FRONT. WILL MENTION FLURRIES AT WESTERN SITES WHERE TEMPS WILL BE
COLD ENOUGH FOR SNOW BY LATE TOMORROW AM.

THE OTHER STORY TODAY IS THE WINDS. HAVE BACKED OFF ON WINDS SOME
FROM THE 12Z PACKAGE AS A FAIRLY STRONG LOW LEVEL INVERSION
EXISTS. THIS HAS KEPT 50 KNOT PLUS WINDS AT 925 MB FROM MIXING TO
THE SURFACE. UNFORTUNATELY...THE WINDS ALOFT WILL INCREASE EVEN
FURTHER THIS EVENING. WILL BUMP UP WINDS AFTER 00Z ALL AREAS.
GUSTS TO 40 KNOTS WILL BE POSSIBLE AT THE TRADITIONAL WINDY SPOTS
LIKE KERI AND KMFD. WINDS SHOULD DIMINISH SOME BEHIND THE FRONT.

OUTLOOK...SOME SHSN AND MVFR CIGS POSSIBLE MONDAY NIGHT AS COLDER
AIR MOVES INTO THE REGION. UNSETTLED WEATHER WILL CONTINUE INTO
MID-WEEK WITH MVFR CIGS AND VSBYS LIKELY AT TIMES.

&&

.MARINE...
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL CONTINUE THROUGH AT LEAST MONDAY AFTERNOON
AS A DEEP AREA OF LOW PRESSURE SLIDES NORTHEAST HUDSON BAY ON
MONDAY. THIS WILL DRAG A  COLD FRONT ACROSS LAKE ERIE ON MONDAY
ALLOWING HIGH PRESSURE TO BUILD. SIGNIFICANT PRESSURE RISES AND
DECENT COLD ADVECTION SHOULD INCREASE WINDS AND GALES ARE STARTING
TO LOOK A BIT MORE LIKELY IN THE WAKE OF THE FRONT. WINDS ARE
EXPECTED TO DECREASE INTO TUESDAY.

SEVERAL ADDITIONAL STORM SYSTEMS WILL MOVE IN THE VICINITY OF LAKE
ERIE THROUGH THE END OF NEXT WEEK. STILL UNCERTAINTY ABOUT THE
EVENTUAL TRACK OF THEM AT THIS TIME. STRONGEST STORM SYSTEM LOOKS TO
BE IN THE REGION INTO FRIDAY.

&&

.CLE WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
OH...WIND ADVISORY FROM 10 PM THIS EVENING TO 11 AM EST MONDAY FOR
     OHZ003-006>009-017>019-027>030-036-037-047.
