AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
1254 PM EST THU JAN 1 2009

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE REGION THIS MORNING THEN A
CLIPPER WILL PUSH A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT BEFORE
ANOTHER AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE MOVES THROUGH SATURDAY.  A LOW SHOULD
MOVE OUT OF THE PLAINS AND ACROSS THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES SUNDAY
BEFORE HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS MONDAY TO BE FOLLOWED BY ANOTHER LOW
CROSSING THE AREA TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
CURRENT FORECAST LOOKS GOOD WITH MINOR CHANGES. WITH SUCH A COLD
START THIS MORNING PLENTY OF WARMING IS NECESSARY TO RAISE TEMPS
TO NEAR FREEZING. WE WILL LOWER MAX TEMPS FOR THE AFTERNOON A
CATEGORY OR SO TO THE UPPER 20S TO LOWER 30S GIVEN THE LOW SUN
ANGLE...SHORT DAY LENGTH AND BIT OF SNOW COVER DESPITE DECENT
WARM ADVECTION. LAKE EFFECT SNOW HAVE ENDED ALREADY WITH SCATTERED
HIGH CLOUDS SPREADING EAST ACROSS THE AREA. THIS SHOULD PRODUCE
PARTLY CLOUDY CONDITIONS FOR THE AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
CLIPPER CROSSING LAKES TONIGHT WILL PUSH A COLD FRONT ACROSS THE
AREA LEADING TO CHANCE FOR SNOW SHOWERS. MOISTURE LIMITED SO ANY
ACCUMULATION WILL BE LIGHT AND MOSTLY IN THE SNOWBELT...ESPECIALLY
NEAR THE LAKESHORE.  DRIER PUNCH AT MID LEVELS ARRIVING QUICKLY FRI
MORNING SHOULD SHUT OFF ANY SNOW FOR ALL BUT SNOWBELT WHERE
LINGERING LIGHT SHSN WILL PROBABLY CONTINUE FRI AND FRI NIGHT WITH
THE LAST FLURRIES FROM THIS ENDING AROUND NOON SAT AS ANOTHER RIDGE
OF HIGH PRESSURE MOVES OVERHEAD DISRUPTING THE LAKE EFFECT SETUP.

DRY WEATHER SHOULD PREVAIL BRIEFLY SAT AND SAT EVENING THEN MOISTURE
AND THREAT FOR NEXT ROUND OF PRECIP ON TRACK FOR LATE SAT NIGHT.
SITUATION TRICKY AS AIRMASS WARM ENOUGH FOR RAIN THROUGHOUT THE
VERTICAL COLUMN EXCEPT FOR THE SURFACE SO COULD BE A SITUATION FOR
POSSIBLE FZRA IF SURFACE NOT ABLE TO WARM ENOUGH BY TIME OF ONSET OF
PRECIP IN THE SW HALF OF AREA.  WILL ADJUST FORECAST TO ACCOUNT FOR
THIS POSSIBILITY.  SURGE OF WARM AIR AT 850 MB RAISES 850 MB TEMPS
BY PRECIP TIME TO PLUS 5 C WHICH SHOULD MEAN THAT JUST RAIN WOULD
OCCUR. WILL RAISE LOWS SAT NIGHT AND SHIFT THE LOWS INTO THE FIRST
HALF OF THE NIGHT.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL. ALL MODELS CONVERGING ON A WARMER SOLUTION
FOR SUNDAY WITH LOW PRESSURE CROSSING THE GREAT LAKES. LIGHT SE FLOW
PROGGED AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM SO IT WILL LIKELY STILL BE COLD EARLY.
WITH A WARM LAYER ALOFT...FREEZING RAIN IS A GOOD POSSIBILITY IF THE
RAIN STARTS EARLY ENOUGH... BUT ALL MODELS WARM THE BOUNDARY LAYER
DURING THE DAY. NOT SURE JUST HOW WARM IT WILL GET BUT BASED ON
CLIMATOLOGY WITH THESE TYPE OF SYSTEMS...SHOULD GET AT LEAST TO THE
UPPER 30S OR LOWER 40S AND COULD POTENTIALLY GET WELL INTO THE 40S.

COLDER SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY BUT LOOKS SEASONABLE. COULD BE SOME
LINGERING SNOW FLURRIES/SNOW SHOWERS MAINLY NE OH/NW PA INTO MONDAY.

MODELS REALLY DIVERGE FROM TUESDAY ON. GFS DEVELOPS A CUT OFF LOW
ALOFT AND A RATHER WEAK SURFACE LOW...NOT MUCH MORE THAN AN INVERTED
TROUGH. ECMWF ESSENTIALLY DEVELOPS A PANHANDLE HOOK TYPE LOW
PRESSURE SYSTEM AND DRIVES IT ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES. THE ECMWF
FORECAST HAS LOOKED RATHER SIMILAR FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS NOW.
CANADIAN GEM MODEL IS NOT AS DEEP BUT SIMILAR LOOKING TO THE ECMWF.
AS STORMY AS THE PATTERN HAS BEEN THE LAST FEW WEEKS... WOULD FAVOR
A DECENT LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM...WHICH WOULD LEAD TO AT LEAST A BRIEF
WARM UP. WILL NOT GO ALL THE WAY WITH THE STRONGER AND WARMER
SOLUTION BUT FOR NOW WILL FORECAST RAIN OR SNOW NEXT TUESDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
LATEST SATELLITE AND UPSTREAM OBSERVATIONS INDICATE SNOW SHOWER
ACTIVITY WILL BE CONFINED TO NORTH OF THE AREA AND WILL CONTINUE
TO KEEP THE TAFS DRY THROUGH THIS PERIOD. THE EXCEPTION WILL BE AT
ERIE WHERE I WILL KEEP THE MENTION OF VCSH SNOW SHOWERS FOR
TONIGHT DUE TO LAKE ENHANCEMENT OF MOISTURE MOVING EAST OVER THE
REGION. WINDS WILL CONTINUE OUT OF THE SOUTH AND THEN GRADUALLY
SHIFT TO SOUTHWEST OVER THE FORECAST PERIOD. SLIGHTLY STRONGER
WINDS CAN BE EXPECTED AT ERIE. I WILL KEEP CEILINGS AND
VISIBILITIES VFR DURING THE 24 HOUR PERIOD.

OUTLOOK...VFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED THROUGH SATURDAY BUT THEN MVFR
TO IFR CONDITIONS WITH SOME LIGHT SNOW POSSIBLE FOR SUNDAY AS
CLIPPER SYSTEM MOVES ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. A QUICK RETURN TO
VFR EXPECTED BY MONDAY AND WILL CONTINUE INTO TUESDAY NIGHT. NEXT
STORM SYSTEM APPROACHES WEDNESDAY INTO THE END OF THE WEEK WITH
MORE IFR TO MVFR CONDITIONS EXPECTED.

&&

.MARINE...
WIND BACKING ALTHOUGH NW GRADIENT STILL RATHER STRONG ON THE EAST
END OF THE LAKE EARLY THIS MORNING. SSW FLOW WILL INCREASE AGAIN
AHEAD OF YET ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM THAT WILL CROSS THE GREAT
LAKES THUR NIGHT AND FRIDAY. MODELS HAVE BEEN CONSISTENTLY TOO WEAK
ON THE WIND WITH THESE SYSTEMS AND WILL GO ABOVE GUIDANCE TONIGHT
AND FRIDAY. SW WINDS WILL LIKELY REACH OR GET CLOSE TO GALE FORCE ON
FRIDAY AND EVENTUALLY SHIFT MORE WNW BY FRIDAY EVENING. NEXT SYSTEM
DUE SUNDAY. FLOW WILL VEER MORE ESE AHEAD OF THE SUNDAY SYSTEM AND
THEN EVENTUALLY WSW AFTER THE PASSAGE OF THE COLD FRONT. THE LOW
PRESSURE AREA WILL NOT BE AS DEEP ON SUNDAY SO WE MAY BE ABLE TO
AVOID GALES FORCE WINDS ON THE LAKE BUT IT MAY BE CLOSE. HIGH
PRESSURE WILL CROSS THE OHIO VALLEY EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH NW FLOW
BECOMING SW BY MONDAY NIGHT.
