AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
421 PM EDT SUN JUL 20 2008

.SYNOPSIS...
RIPPLES OF LOW PRESSURE ALONG A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT WILL
CONTINUE TO BRING CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH
TUESDAY. PRECIPITATION CHANCES WILL END BY TUESDAY NIGHT AS THE
FRONT SAGS SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD
IN WITH DRIER COOLER WEATHER.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
SVR TS WATCH #710 HAS GONE INTO EFFECT COVERING INDIANA COS AND
NRN KY WEST OF INTERSTATE 75 THRU 01Z. SCT CONVECTION HAS DVLPD
IN AN ARC FROM EAST CNTRL ILLINOIS E/SE INTO SE INDIANA. APPEARS
THERE IS A SUBTLE DEWPT BNDRY CONTRIBUTING TO ENHANCED MOISTURE
CONVERGENCE INVOF THE AFOREMENTIONED CONVECTION. ALSO...WEAK MID
LVL S/WV OVER ERN ILLINOIS IS LIKELY CONTRIBUTING TO TSTM
ENHANCEMENT OVER LAST HOUR OR SO. TEMPS HAD WARMED INTO THE
U80S/L90S ACRS MUCH OF THE FCST AREA ONCE AGAIN THIS AFTN.

MESOANALYSIS INDCG THAT THE TSTMS CURRENTLY OVER SE INDIANA WILL
CONTINUE TO MOVE INTO A UNSTABLE ENVIRONMENT OVER WRN FCST AREA
AS MLCAPES MAXED AT 2000-2500 J/KG. HOWEVER...SLIGHTLY DRIER
AIRMASS EXISTS OVER SW OHIO...EVIDENCED BY TDS IN THE M/U60S.
WITH WEAKLY SHEARED ENVIRONMENT ACRS OH VLY...EXPECT TSTMS TO BE
DRIVEN BY INSTABILITY AND SUBTLE BNDRYS/OUTFLOWS INTO THE EVNG
HOURS. BEST THREAT FOR ANY TSTMS TO PULSE UP TO SVR LIMITS WILL BE
ACRS SW FCST AREA AND HAVE INSERTED HIGHEST POPS IN THIS AREA.
WITH MAX DELTA THETA-E VALUES IN THE 20-25K RANGE FOR NEXT FEW
HOURS...DMG WINDS WILL BE THE MAIN CONCERN. ELSEWHERE ACRS FCST
AREA...WILL MAINTAIN CHC POPS INTO THE EVNG HOURS AS A FEW TSTMS
ARE CERTAINLY POSSIBLE IN MOIST UNSTABLE ATMOSPHERE.

TSTMS SHOULD DIMINISH WITH NIGHTFALL AS ATMOSPHERE STABILIZES.
MAJORITY OF THE MODEL DATA CONSISTENT WITH BRINGING DRIER AIR INTO
REGION BRIEFLY TONIGHT AND HAVE MAINTAINED DRY FCST FOR ENTIRE
FCST AREA AFT MIDNIGHT. CANNOT COMPLETELY RULE OUT AN ISOLD TSTM
OVERNIGHT BUT CHANCES LOOK LOW ENUF ATTM TO KEEP OUT OF FCST.
FOCUS WILL THEN SHIFT TO EXPECTED CONVECTIVE DVLPMNT IN THE MID
MISSISSIPPI VLY LATE TONIGHT. IT IS LIKELY THAT ANY HIGH CLOUDS
FROM CONVECTION TO THE WEST MAY SNEAK INTO WRN FCST AREA NEAR
DAYBREAK. WITH STAGNANT AIRMASS OVERNIGHT SOME LOCALIZED BR/FG
WILL BE POSSIBLE LATE...ESPECIALLY IN ANY AREAS THAT RECEIVE
RAINFALL OVER NEXT FEW HOURS.

TEMPS...LEANED OVERNIGHT LOWS TOWARDS SLIGHTLY WARMER MET WITH
TEMPS BOTTOMING OUT IN THE U60S AND L70S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
SHORT TERM FCST WILL BE DRIVEN BY MESOSCALE PROCESSES AS SVRL MID
LVL S/WVS RIPPLE THRU THE OH VLY AROUND THE BASE OF A SHARPENING
UPR TROF. AT THE SFC...A COLD FRONT WILL DROP SLOWLY THRU REGION
MON NIGHT AND TUES.

CONTINUED LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE DETAILS DUE TO MODEL UNCERTAINTY...
BUT DOES APPEAR BETTER THREAT FOR ORGANIZED TSTMS WILL EXIST
DURING THE AFTN/EVNG HOURS ONCE AGAIN MONDAY AS A S/WV MOVES THRU
REGION. POTENTIAL IS THERE FOR A MORE ENHANCED THREAT FOR SVR WX
MON AFTN AS SLIGHTLY BETTER DYNAMICS WILL BE IN PLACE ACRS THE
REGION THAT WHAT IS BEING EXPERIENCED THIS AFTN. UPR JETLET WILL
BE IN PLACE ACRS THE LWR GRT LKS MON AFTN/EVNG AS ENERGY CONTINUES
TO LOAD INTO THE BASE OF THE TROF. LO LVL MOISTURE POOLING
COMBINED WITH MLCAPES ABV 2000 J/KG BY THE AFTN AND THE
AFOREMENTIONED DYNAMICS WILL CONTRIBUTE TO MORE WIDESPREAD TSTM
COVERAGE...ESPECIALLY ACRS NRN 1/2 FCST AREA WHERE BL SHEAR VALUES
WILL BE HIGHER. HAVE INSERTED 50 POPS ACRS NRN FCST AREA WITH
LOWER POPS FURTHER SOUTH. WILL LINGER PCPN CHANCES ALL NIGHT MON
NIGHT AS FRNTL BNDRY WILL BE LOCATED ACRS FCST AREA.

UPR TROF AXIS WILL REMAIN IN THE REGION ON TUES WITH FRNTL BNDRY
SETTLING NEAR OR JUST SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER. THIS WILL KEEP
UNSETTLED PATTERN ACRS REGION WITH ADDL TSTM ACTIVITY. FOCUS FOR
BEST PCPN COVERAGE WILL BE ACRS SRN 1/2 FCST AREA...IN CLOSER
PROXIMITY TO THE FRNTL BNDRY AND AHEAD OF THE APPCHG UPR TROF
AXIS. FCST HIGHLY UNCERTAIN FOR TUES AFTN/NIGHT. UPR TROF SHOULD
HELP BUMP THE FRNTL BNDRY SLOWLY SOUTH INTO THE TN VLY AND BRING
PCPN CHANCES TO AN END ACRS REGION BY TUES EVNG...IN LINE WITH
00Z/12Z ECMWF/GFS ENSEMBLE MEAN/AND 12Z NAM. 12Z OP GFS APPEARS TO
BE AN OUTLIER ATTM WRT TO HANGING THE UPR TROF AXIS MUCH FURTHER
BACK TO THE SOUTH AND WEST ACRS THE GRT LKS TUES NIGHT AND
CONSEQUENTLY KEEPING THE FCST AREA IN AN UNSETTLED PATTERN. SHOULD
MODEL CONSENSUS SHIFT TO THE 12Z GFS SOLN THEN PCPN CHANCES WILL
BE NEEDED FOR TUES NIGHT. AT THIS POINT HOWEVER...WILL DRY IT OUT
TUES NIGHT WITH SKIES CLEARING LATE AS SFC HI PRES BUILDS INTO THE
REGION.

TEMPS...TRENDED TOWARDS COOLER FWC/MET GUID FOR HIGHS MON AS MAV
GUID CONTINUES TO EXHIBIT WARM BIAS. WENT NEAR OR SLIGHTLY ABV
GUID FOR HIGHS ON TUES. NEAR MAV GUID FOR LOWS MON/TUES NIGHTS.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
HAVE TAKEN A BLEND OF THE OPERATIONAL ECMWF AND GFS ENSEMBLE
MEAN...WHICH IS IN LINE WITH THE HPC FORECAST.

UPPER LEVEL CLOSED LOW ACROSS THE ERN GREAT LAKES/SE CANADA/NEW
ENGLAND REGION ON WEDNESDAY WILL GRADUALLY PIVOT NORTHWARD TOWARD
NRN QUEBEC BY THURSDAY. LATEST MODEL RUNS SUGGEST THAT THIS FEATURE
MAY END UP BEING FARTHER WEST ON WEDNESDAY THAN PREVIOUSLY THOUGHT.
DO NOT WANT TO JUMP ON THE BAND WAGON JUST YET...THUS...WILL
CONTINUE WITH A DRY FORECAST ON WEDNESDAY UNDER PARTLY CLOUDY
SKIES.  SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION WEDNESDAY
NIGHT...MOVING EAST OF THE REGION BY FRIDAY MORNING.

FOR FRIDAY INTO SATURDAY...MODELS CONTINUE TO DROP A WEAK COLD FRONT
ACRS THE FORECAST AREA DURING THIS TIME FRAME.  WILL MAINTAIN LOW
CHANCE POPS AT THIS TIME. AGAIN...MOST RECENT OPERATIONAL RUNS
SUGGEST THAT THIS FRONT MAY BE A LITTLE SLOWER.  HOWEVER...GIVEN HOW
DIFFICULT IT IS TO PINPOINT TIMING IN A NORTHWEST FLOW PATTERN
ALOFT...FEEL THAT IT IS PRUDENT ATTM TO NOT TWEAK WITH FRONTAL
POSITION TIMING JUST YET.

SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO BUILD BACK IN THE REGION ON
SUNDAY.

AS FOR TEMPERATURES...THEY WILL AVERAGE SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL
WEDNESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT.  THEREAFTER...THEY WILL AVERAGE NEAR
NORMAL VALUES.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
CONVECTION SHOULD STAY E OF CMH/LCK TAF SITES THIS AFTERNOON. REST
OF TAFS SHOULD BE LIMITED IN CLOUDS FOR THE REST OF THE DAY WITH
ONLY SOME MID LEVEL 8-10KFT SPILLOVER FROM CONVECTION THAT WILL
FIRE OVER CENTRAL INDIANA. AN ISOLATED STORM MAY RIDE SE WITH THIS
LINE OF CONVECTION BUT ATTM IT THE AIRMASS IS MAKING FORECASTING
PLACEMENT OF CONVECTIVE CELLS VERY DIFFICULT. WILL AMEND FCST IF
UPSTREAM CONVECTION FIRES AND EXHIBITS PERSISTENCE THIS EVENING.
CU AND POSSIBLE SHOWERS WILL AGAIN BE A REAL POSSIBILITY DURING
THE DAY TOMORROW. HAZE WILL MIX OUT SOME THIS AFTERNOON BUT
DEWPOINTS SHOULD RISE BACK UP AS WINDS SLACKEN AND MORNING
RESTRICTIONS TO VSBYS WILL GENERALLY BE IN THE MVFR RANGE...LOWER
AT KLUK.

MVFR VISIBILITIES WILL SETTLE IN AFTER 08Z...WITH IFR LIKELY AT
KLUK.

OUTLOOK...TSTMS POSSIBLE MONDAY AND TUESDAY.
