AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
103 PM EDT TUE JUL 21 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
EVEN THOUGH WEAK HIGH PRESSURE IS CENTERED JUST NORTHEAST OF THE
AREA...AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE WILL KEEP THE CHANCE FOR
SHOWERY WEATHER TODAY. BY WEDNESDAY LOW PRESSURE WILL WORK INTO
THE OHIO VALLEY AND INTO THE LOWER GREAT LAKES. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BRIEFLY STAY FOR FRIDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
UPPER LEVEL LOW OVER SOUTHEAST OHIO WILL CONTINUE A SLOW MOVE TO
THE NORTHEAST THROUGH THE AFTERNOON. CENTER OF THE UPPER LEVEL
CIRCULATION INDICATED WELL BY RADAR WITH A SMALL CLUSTER OF
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS SOUTHWEST OF PITTSBURGH. MOST OF THE
REDEVELOPMENT WILL BE ALONG AND EAST OF A CANTON TO MENTOR LINE.
ELSEWHERE CANT RULE OUT AN ISOLATED/SCATTERED SHOWER OR
THUNDERSTORM WITH THE COOLER AIR ALOFT.

DID WARM TEMPERATURES A COUPLE DEGREES AT MOST LOCATIONS WITH
CUMULUS SLOW TO DEVELOP...ESPECIALLY OVER THE WESTERN COUNTY
WARNING AREA(CWA). OTHERWISE ONLY MINOR CHANGES TO REFLECT THE
CURRENT DIURNAL TRENDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
DECREASING TREND IN SHOWER ACTIVITY FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST
THIS EVENING AS UPPER LOW PULLS AWAY. THERE WILL ONLY BE A BRIEF
LULL IN THE UNSETTLED WEATHER AS THE NEXT TROUGH APPROACHES. THIS
WILL ONE WILL HAVE A MORE DEFINED SURFACE LOW WITH IT...BUT PLENTY
OF DIFFERENCES EXIST AMONGST VARIOUS MODELS. INTENSITY AND TRACK
OF THE SURFACE LOW RANGE FROM MICHIGAN TO THE OHIO RIVER AND WELL
DEVELOPED TO BARELY THERE. THE REALLY BROAD PICTURE TAKES THE
LARGE SCALE FEATURES ACROSS THE AREA WEDNESDAY INTO THURSDAY. WITH
LOW CONFIDENCE IN THE DETAILS...ADDITIONAL DETAILS DIFFICULT TO
PUT INTO FORECAST AND ALSO DIFFICULT TO MATCH THE HIGH MOS
GUIDANCE. WILL SETTLE WITH AN INCREASE TO LIKELY POPS WED/WED
NIGHT AND TREND TOWARD A 12Z GFS ENS/BLEND OF SOLUTIONS. HAVE FLIP
FLOPPED WHERE ACROSS THE AREA THE WARMER TEMPERATURES WILL TAKE
PLACE WEDNESDAY. WITH RAIN ENCROACHING EARLIER IN THE DAY
WEDNESDAY THAN PREVIOUSLY EXPECTED...HAVE LOWERED TEMPS
THERE...AND RAISED THEM EAST WHERE RAIN WILL HOLD OFF. AREA WILL
STILL BE COMING IN BELOW NORMAL.

AS PREVIOUS FORECASTER STATED...UPPER LOW DUMBBELLS AROUND THE
GREAT LAKES THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT...SO PRECIP CHANCES WILL STILL
HAVE TO BE IN THE FORECAST FOR THURSDAY.

WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT DUMBELLING...FRIDAY GETS POSITIONED
WITH WEAK RIDGING BEFORE THE NEXT LOBE OF ENERGY WORKS THE UPPER
LOW INTO THE MIDWEST FOR THE WEEKEND. SO WILL GIVE A DRY FORECAST
TO FRIDAY AND WARMER TEMPERATURES.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE OVER THE CENTRAL GREAT LAKES AREA OVER
THE WEEKEND AND INTO MONDAY THOUGH LIFTING NORTHWARD NEAR THE END OF
THE PERIOD. THIS WILL CONTINUE TO BRING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THROUGH THE PERIOD. HOWEVER BACKED THE CHANCE OF
SHOWERS OFF TO JUST SLIGHT CHANCE ON MONDAY WITH THE UPPER LEVEL LOW
LIFTING NORTHWARD BY THEN THOUGH THE TROUGH STILL EXTENDS SOUTH INTO
THE AREA. GFS IS LITTLE SLOWER BRINGING THE FRONT THROUGH OVER THE
WEEKEND...NOT CLEARING THE AREA UNTIL LATE DAY SUNDAY. TEMPERATURES
WILL CONTINUE TO BE NEAR SEASONAL AVERAGES.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE OVER NE OH THIS AFTERNOON SHOULD CAUSE AT
LEAST A FEW SHRA AND SOME TSRA TO DEVELOP BUT LATEST MOST GUIDANCE
HAS VERY LOW POPS FOR THE REST OF TODAY. IN LIEU OF THE LOW POPS
WILL ONLY CARRY VCSH AND MENTION CB EXCEPT FOR AROUND ERI FOR
CURRENT SHRA NEARBY AND VCTS AT YNG FOR A FEW HOURS THIS AFTERNOON
FOR SMALL BAND OF CONVECTION CURRENTLY NEAR HLG. MOVEMENT WILL
GENERALLY BE FROM SE TO NW...SOMEWHAT UNUSUAL FOR THIS AREA.  AREAS
OF MVFR WILL OCCUR IN THE SHOWERS. MOST OF THE ACTIVITY WILL DIE OFF
DURING THE EVENING BUT SOME NEW ACTIVITY MAY DEVELOP LATE TONIGHT
AND CONTINUE TO DEVELOP WED MORNING AHEAD OF A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
APPROACHING THE AREA FROM THE SW.  INCREASED MOISTURE IN THE
ATMOSPHERE WILL LIKELY ALLOW FOG TO FORM IN MOST PLACES LATE TONIGHT
BUT ADDED CLOUDS MID AND HIGH CLOUDS MOVING IN SHOULD KEEP THE FOG
FROM DROPPING TOO MUCH BELOW MVFR OR HIGH END IFR.

.OUTLOOK...NUMEROUS SHOWERS/STORMS LIKELY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON WITH
MVFR CONDITIONS. ISOLD SHRA/TSTMS WILL CAUSE BRIEF MVFR/IFR
CONDITIONS THUR AND FRI ALONG WITH EARLY MORNING FOG/HAZE. MORE
NUMEROUS SHOWERS/STORMS AGAIN POSSIBLE OVER THE WEEKEND.

&&

.MARINE...
SURFACE RIDGE WILL CONTINUE TO PROVIDE A GENERAL FAIRLY LIGHT
EASTERLY FLOW INTO AT LEAST THE EARLY PART OF WEDNESDAY. HOWEVER
UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL PROVIDE A THREAT OF SOME SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS ON THE LAKE. LOW PRESSURE MOVING NORTHEAST TOWARD THE
LAKE ON WEDNESDAY WILL PROVIDE AN INCREASING EASTERLY FLOW. SCA MAY
BE NEEDED LATE IN DAY WEDNESDAY OR WEDNESDAY NIGHT...IF NOT CHOPPY 2
TO 4 FOOT WAVES CAN BE EXPECTED. WINDS SHOULD SUBSIDE SOME EARLY
THURSDAY BUT THEN PICK UP LATER IN THE DAY. AGAIN SCA MAY BE NEEDED
BUT FOR NOW LOOKS LIKE WAVES WILL STAY BELOW CRITERIA BUT CHOPPY
CONDITIONS.

&&

.CLE WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
OH...NONE.
PA...NONE.
MARINE...NONE.
