AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
116 PM EDT WED AUG 4 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM FRONT LOCATED FROM ILLINOIS INTO INDIANA WILL TRY TO BUILD
TOWARD OHIO TODAY. THIS FRONT WILL EVENTUALLY BEGIN MOVING SOUTH
AS A COLD FRONT LATE TONIGHT AND THURSDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL
BEGIN BUILDING INTO THE AREA THURSDAY NIGHT AND LAST INTO THE
WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE MOVED OUT OF THE AREA AND THE
CLOUDS ASSOCIATED WITH THEM ARE DECREASING QUICKLY. UPDATED TO
TAKE THIS INTO ACCOUNT AND ADD PATCHY DENSE FOG THROUGH 13Z.

PREVIOUS DISCUSSION...A SMALL COMPLEX OF THUNDERSTORMS BRUSHING
THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH 12Z...WILL HAVE
AN EARLY MENTION OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. PLENTY OF CLOUDS
FOR THE START OF THE DAY AND THEN THEY WILL BREAK OUT WITH A FAIR
AMOUNT OF SUN. THE QUESTION IS WHEN AND WHERE WILL THE NEXT
CONVECTION START. A CAP WILL BE OVER THE AREA EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON...12C AT 700 MB. THE CAP WILL WEAKEN AS THE AFTERNOON
GOES ON. THE COMPLEX ENTERING IL AT 07Z MAY BE THE CATALYST FOR
THE ACTIVITY THIS AFTERNOON. WITH QUESTIONS ABOUT TIMING WILL JUST
GO WITH CHANCE WORDING. A LAKE BREEZE WILL DEVELOP ESPECIALLY EAST
OF CLEVELAND AND THE CAP IS WEAKEST THERE...SO A THREAT OF SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS COULD OCCUR ANYTIME IN THE AFTERNOON. WENT CLOSE
TO GUIDANCE FOR THE HIGHS...THEY LOOK REASONABLE.

WITH THE CLOUD COVER THE THREAT OF PATCHY DENSE FOG SEEMS
MINIMAL...WILL NOT MENTION IT IN THE GRIDS/ZONES.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
A BOUNDARY WILL BE AROUND THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT AND SHOULD BE
A FOCUS FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. BECAUSE OF THAT WILL GO
WITH SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. SPC ONLY HAS A FEW
COUNTIES IN THE SLIGHT RISK. THIS COULD BE CONSERVATIVE AND WILL
MENTION STRONG TO APPROACHING SEVERE OVER THE SOUTHERN TWO THIRDS
OF THE FORECAST AREA. THE FRONT WILL SAG SOUTH DURING THE DAY
THURSDAY. SOME QUESTION TO THE TIMING...THE GFS AND 00Z ECMWF TRY
TO DRY THINGS OUT QUICKLY...WHILE THE NAM IS SLOW. BECAUSE OF
THAT WILL NOT PUT IN ANY RESOLUTION AND LEAVE THE THREAT ALL DAY.
HOWEVER...IN THE EXTREME NORTH THE BEST CHANCE SHOULD BE IN THE MORNING.

HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN BUILDING INTO THE REGION THURSDAY NIGHT AND
LAST INTO THE WEEKEND. KEPT CLOSE TO PREVIOUS FORECAST HIGHS AS THEY
SEEMED REASONABLE.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
AS IS OFTEN THE CASE IN THE SUMMER...WHEN A BIG HIGH PRESSURE AREA
BUILDS SOUTH...THE WARM-UP CAN BE SIGNIFICANT ON THE BACK SIDE OF
THE HIGH. THE RIDGE ALOFT IS PROGGED TO BUILD TOWARD THE GREAT LAKES
AND OHIO VALLEY EARLY NEXT WEEK. NOT SURE HOW WARM TO GO. SOME
GUIDANCE HINTS AT A BACKDOOR FRONT EARLY TO MID WEEK WHICH WOULD
SLOW THE HEAT AND KEEP TEMPERATURES CLOSER TO NORMAL. WILL SPLIT THE
DIFFERENCE AND FORECAST MID TO UPPER 80S FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY FOR
NOW.

I DOUBT THERE WOULD BE ANY WIDESPREAD SHOWERS/STORMS WITH A BACK
DOOR COLD FRONT. THERE IS PROBABLY A BETTER CHANCE WE COULD SEE SOME
RING-OF-FIRE TYPE THUNDERSTORMS TRY TO SNEAK INTO THE AREA FROM THE
NORTHWEST. WILL HAVE A LOW-POP (30 PERCENT) CHANCE FOR NOW.

&&

.AVIATION /17Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
COMPLEX OF TSTMS NOW MOVING ACROSS THE AREA...WE COULD GET SOME
ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT THIS EVENING AND OVERNIGHT. SOME MVFR CIGS
AND VSBYS STILL HANGING AROUND SHOULD EVENTUALLY RISE ENOUGH TO
VFR OR NEAR VFR CONDITIONS AT MOST TAF SITES.

SOME CLOUD COVER AND PRECIPITATION OVER NIGHT AND INTO THURSDAY
MORNING...BUT THE MAJOR FOCUS ON THURSDAY SHOULD BE THE EXTREME
EASTERN THIRD OF OUR FORECAST AREA INTO WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA.

WINDS GENERALLY LIGHT/10 KNOTS OR LESS AND WESTERLY...EXCEPT NEAR
THUNDERSTORMS.

.OUTLOOK...A CHANCE OF SHRA/TSRA THURSDAY EARLY IN THE DAY. VFR
CONDITIONS FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
LIGHT SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST GRADIENT WILL GRADUALLY PICK UP AHEAD OF
THE COLD FRONT...AND SHOULD BE ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE WEDNESDAY
NIGHT. COLD FRONT SHOULD SAG ACROSS LAKE ERIE THURSDAY MORNING
ALTHOUGH WITH A LOT OF TROUGHING ALOFT AND AT THE SURFACE... THE
WIND MAY TRY TO STAY FROM THE SOUTHWEST. THE WIND WILL FRESHEN
ENOUGH THAT THE WIND/WAVES WILL APPROACH SMALL CRAFT CRITERIA...
WITH 3 OR 4 FOOT WAVES POSSIBLE THURSDAY AFTERNOON INTO THURSDAY
NIGHT.

A LARGE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE SHOULD BUILD SOUTH LATE IN THE WEEK.
FRIDAY MAY HAVE ENOUGH OF A LINGERING WEST TO NORTHWEST WIND TO MAKE
FOR SOME CHOPPINESS. BY THE WEEKEND THE SURFACE HIGH SHOULD MOVE
ACROSS THE LOWER GREAT LAKES AND PLEASANT WEATHER AND LIGHT WINDS
ARE LIKELY.

&&

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