AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
805 PM EDT FRI JUN 6 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE...CENTERED OVER THE SOUTHEASTERN STATES...WILL
REMAIN IN CONTROL OF OUR WEATHER THROUGH EARLY NEXT
WEEK...HOWEVER...A SERIES OF WEAKENING COLD FRONTS WILL GRAZE THE
OHIO VALLEY AND LOWER GREAT LAKES THROUGH THE PERIOD. THESE
BOUNDARIES WILL HAVE NO GREAT AFFECT ON TEMPERATURE ALTHOUGH THEY
COULD TRIGGER A FEW THUNDERSTORMS AS THEY MOVE THROUGH.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY/...
CURRENTLY HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE VIRGINIAS AND LOW PRESSURE IN THE
EASTERN DAKOTAS/MINNESOTA. COLD FRONT FROM MINNESOTA INTO MISSOURI
WITH A TROF OF LOW PRESSURE AHEAD OF THE FRONT FROM SWRN LOWER MI
TO SOUTHEAST MISSOURI. CONVECTION HAS DEVELOPED FROM WESTERN
LOWER MI SSW THROUGH NWRN INDIANA AND ILLINOIS. CONVECTION IS
TRACKING NORTH NORTHEAST WITH THE LINE MOVING SLOWLY EAST. RUC
DOES NOT ADVECT IN THE DEEP INSTABILITY AND ALSO NOT IN A HURRY TO
BRING CONVECTION EAST ALTHOUGH BELIEVE CONVECTION WILL REACH INTO
NWRN OHIO THIS EVENING BETWEEN 23-01Z. WILL START OUT WITH LIKELY
POPS IN NWRN OHIO THIS EVENING AND CHC POPS ELSEWHERE. AFTER THE
EVENING WILL DROP BACK TO CHC POPS EVERYWHERE. RUC SHOWS A 40 KNOT
850MB JET MAX OVER NWRN OHIO...INCREASING TO 50 KTS BY 03Z.
AIRMASS WELL MIXED AND GUSTS ARE CURRENTLY INTO THE LOW-MID 30
KNOT RANGE IN THE WEST. EXPECT THROUGH THE EVENING WINDS WILL DROP
OFF A BIT AS MIXING DECREASES BUT WILL NEED TO START OUT WITH
WINDY WORDING.  WILL KEEP LOWS IN THE 70S OVERNIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
COLD FRONT TO OUR WEST WILL CONTINUE TO WEAKEN AS IT MOVES EAST
AND SHOULD DISSIPATE AS IT MOVES INTO THE AREA ON SATURDAY.
ACCOMPANING MOISTURE HOWEVER WILL REMAIN IN PLACE ACROSS THE AREA
ON SATURDAY WITH THE NAM SHOWING BETWEEN 70 AND 80% MEAN RH FROM
850MB TO 700 MB. EXPECT WITH THE AFTERNOON HEATING THIS WILL BE
GOD ENOUGH FOR AT LEAST SCATTERED CONVECTION THROUGH THE AFTERNOON
AND EARLY EVENING. WILL GO WITH CHC POPS AND PARTLY SUNNY WORDING.
925MB TEMPS DROP A COUPLE DEGREES SO THINKING UPPER 80S WILL HOLD
MOST OF THE AREA AS THE UPPER RIDGE FLATTENS JUST A BIT. WILL
CARRY A DECREASING DIURNAL POP INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. SUNDAY THE
UPPER HIGH DRIFTS BACK NORTH AND 925MB TEMPS END UP A DEGREE OR
TWO HIGHER THAN TODAY. SHOULD END UP AS WARM OR WARMER THAN TODAY.
STILL THINK MID 90S MIGHT BE A STRETCH SO WILL HOLD MOST LOCATIONS
TO LOWER 90S. THERE WILL BE A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE CENTRAL AND
UPPER LAKES AND WITH DEEPEST MOISTURE CLOSER TO THE FRONT WILL KEEP
FORECAST DRY FOR NOW EXCEPT FOR FAR NORTHEAST WHERE THE AREA COULD
GET CLIPPED.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
WARM HUMID PATTERN CONTINUES THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD.A FEW WAVES
WILL WORK THROUGH THE RIDGE DURING THE PERIOD.  THE FIRST ONE WILL
IMPACT THE REGION MONDAY NIGHT AND TUE.  BOTH GFS AND ECMWF IN
FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT WITH THE TIMING. IF THE MODELS ARE CORRECT
MONDAY SHOULD REMAIN DRY OVER THE REGION...WITH A SLIGHT CHC OVER
THE NW PORTION OF THE AREA.  MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY...SURFACE
FRONT SHOULD SETTLE IN OVER THE REGION INCREASING THE CHC OF PCPN.
THE RIDGE SHOULD REMAIN IN CONTROL OF THE PATTERN WED AND THU. AN
ISOLATED TSTM IS NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION ON THESE DAYS WITH THE
CURRENT AIR MASS BUT I WILL LEAVE THE MENTION OUT OF THE FORECAST AT
THIS TIME.  THE NEXT CONCERN WILL BE APPROACHING SHORT WAVE ON
FRIDAY.  THE GFS IS MUCH MORE AGGRESSIVE THEN THE ECMWF.  I WILL
HEDGE TOWARDS THE INTRODUCTION OF PCPN ON FRIDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 477 OVER WESTERN THIRD OF FORECAST AREA
IN EFFECT UNTIL 1 AM. BROKEN LINE OF THUNDERSTORMS NRN IN AND SE
LOWER MI HAVE BEEN PRODUCING SOME DOWNBURST WINDS OVER 50 KTS.
LINE OF TSRA HAVE BEEN MOVING EAST AT AROUND 30 KNOTS. DO EXPECT
SOME DECREASE IN INTENSITY OF STORMS AFTER SUNSET. WILL BE AFTER
MIDNIGHT BEFORE REMNANTS OF STORMS REACH CLE AND LOCATIONS IN THE
EAST.

THE MODELS INDICATED THE REMNANTS OF THE COLD FRONT BECOMING
NEARLY STATIONARY OVER THE FORECAST AREA ON SAT. THE FRONT APPEARS
TO BE WASHED OUT BUT STILL COULD SERVE AS A BOUNDARY FOR SHOWER
AND THUNDERSTORM DEVELOPMENT. I WILL KEEP SOME MID CLOUDS OVER
LOCATIONS WITH SHOWERS VCSH. THUNDER IS POSSIBLE BUT IT IS TO FAR
IN THE PERIOD TO BE SPECIFIC.

&&

.MARINE...
STRONG SOUTH-SOUTHWEST FLOW 15-25KT OVER WESTERN PORTIONS
OF THE LAKE...MAINLY FROM AROUND CLEVELAND WEST. EAST OF CLEVELAND
WINDS NOT QUITE AS STRONG WITH WINDS 10-20KT WITH EVEN A BIT OF
ONSHORE FLOW IN NW PA. SOUTH-SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL CONTINUE THROUGH
THE OVERNIGHT HOURS AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES NORTH OF LAKE SUPERIOR BY
SATURDAY MORNING. WEAK COLD FRONT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE LAKE BUT NOT
EXPECTING MUCH FOR WIND SHIFTS WITH FRONTAL PASSAGE. WINDS WILL
CONTINUE S-SW THROUGH SUNDAY AND MONDAY ACROSS THE AREA WITH 10-20KT
COMMON. NEXT COLD FRONT NOT EXPECTED UNTIL TUESDAY.

AS FOR HEADLINES...SPOTTER REPORTS INDICATED EARLIER THIS AFTERNOON
WINDS AND WAVES WERE APPROACHING SMA CRITERIA OFFSHORE OF LORAIN SO
DID UNSCHEDULED UPDATE FOR SMALL CRAFT. LATEST REPORTS INDICATED
WINDS AND WAVES CURRENT RIGHT AT SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA JUST OFFSHORE.
WILL CONTINUE SMA FOR CLEVELAND WEST THROUGH THIS EVENING...BUT
FUTURE SHIFTS MAY NEED TO EVALUATE WINDS FOR TOMORROW. RIGHT NOW
WENT 10-20KT FOR TOMORROW...BUT IF THEY ARE A BIT STRONGER...SIMILAR
TO THIS AFTERNOON...A SMA MAY BE NEEDED AGAIN FOR SATURDAY FOR
WESTERN AREAS.
