AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
149 AM EDT FRI MAY 14 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT OVER THE MIDWEST WILL CROSS THE AREA EARLY FRIDAY
MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE FROM THE PLAINS STATES WILL CROSS THE GREAT
LAKES THIS WEEKEND. A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM FROM OKLAHOMA WILL
TRACK ACROSS OHIO MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
JUST ENOUGH DRYING AND CAPPING LATE THIS AFTERNOON TO FLATTEN THE
CUMULUS DEVELOPMENT AND SNUFF NEW STORM DEVELOPMENT. WILL HAVE TO
CONTINUE TO WATCH THE STORMS NEAR NORTHWEST PENNSYLVANIA IN THE
VICINITY OF THE WARM FRONT EARLY TONIGHT BUT INDICATIONS ARE THAT
THERE IS ONLY A VERY SMALL ZONE BETWEEN THE CAPPING TO THE
SOUTHWEST AND THE COOL STABLE AIR TO THE NORTHEAST. I DO EXPECT
SOME REDEVELOPMENT WITH THE COLD FRONT OVERNIGHT BUT THE 00Z DTX
SOUNDING IS PRETTY CAPPED AND PRETTY STABLE AND GIVEN THE LATE
NIGHT TIME FRAME I DO NOT EXPECT A BIG SEVERE WEATHER OUTBREAK.
SPC HAS TRIMMED THE SLIGHT RISK AREA BUT I WILL CONTINUE TO
MENTION A CHANCE OF SEVERE STORMS AS TEMPS AND DEWPOINTS ARE QUITE
HIGH FOR MID MAY AND I CANNOT RULE OUT SOME STRONG TO LOCALLY
SEVERE STORMS AHEAD OF THE FRONT. LESS SHEAR AWAY FROM THE WARM
FRONT SO LESS CHANCE FOR TORNADOES. WILL USE "CHANCE" PROBABILITY
OF PRECIPITATION FOR MOST OF THE AREA EXCEPT "LIKELY" FOR EXTREME
NE OH/NW PA.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
DRIER AND COOLER AIR SPREADING OVER THE REGION BEHIND THE FRONT FRI
MORNING. LINGERING THREAT FOR SHOWERS IN THE EAST FOR THE MORNING.
DRY SLOT AROUND 850 MB SHIFTS SE BY THE END OF THE DAY AND HIGH RH
LEVELS DROP SE BACK INTO THE CWA FOR FRI NIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE SLOWLY
BUILDING TOWARD THE AREA PROVIDING GENERAL SUBSIDENCE SO NOT
EXPECTING MEASURABLE SHRA TO DEVELOP BUT A FEW SPRINKLES NOT OUT OF
THE QUESTION FOR THE SNOWBELT WHERE LAKE ENHANCEMENT BECOMES A BIT
MORE FAVORABLE FOR SECOND HALF OF FRI NIGHT.

EXCEPT FOR ANY MORNING SPRINKLES IN THE SNOWBELT SAT MORNING...DRY
WEATHER WILL PREVAIL THROUGH SUNDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE MOVES EAST
ACROSS THE AREA. SLIGHTLY BELOW NORMAL TEMPS LIKELY TO HANG ON
THROUGH SUNDAY AS ADDED CLOUDS DELAY WARM UP.

AN INCREASING SOUTH FLOW WILL BRING DEEP MOISTURE BACK INTO THE CWA
SUN NIGHT. OVERRUNNING LIFT PRESENT. NOT COMFORTABLE WITH A
COMPLETELY DRY FORECAST FOR THEN SO WILL ADD CHANCE INTO THE
FORECAST FOR MAINLY SW HALF OF AREA.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
OVERALL THE GFS AND ECMWF ARE RATHER SIMILAR THROUGH THIS PERIOD
WITH THE EXCEPTION THAT THE EURO IS SLOWER IN LIFTING OUT THE CUT
OFF LOW OVER THE REGION TOWARD THE END OF THE PERIOD. GOOD AGREEMENT
IS SEEN IN THE MONDAY INTO EARLY WEDNESDAY PERIOD WITH A GOOD CHANCE
OF SHOWERS WITH THE UPPER TROUGH NEAR THE REGION. WILL INCREASE POPS
FOR WEDNESDAY AND NOT MENTION RAIN ON THURSDAY BUT IF THE EURO IS
CORRECT WE WILL NEED TO CONTINUE THE CHANCE OF RAIN. HAVE USED HPC
AND MOS GUIDANCE WITH MINOR CHANGES.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
COLD FRONT MOVING INTO NORTHWEST OHIO WILL MOVE EAST OF THE AREA
BY AROUND 14Z. THUNDERSTORMS DEVELOP ALONG AND AHEAD OF THE FRONT
LATE LAST EVENING. AS OF 05Z NO STRONG WINDS REPORTED WITH THE
STORMS BUT CAN'T COMPLETELY RULE THEM OUT. WILL CARRY
THUNDERSTORMS MOST OF THE TAF SITES UNTIL FRONT PASSES...THEN
SCATTERED SHOWERS WITH MVFR CIGS FOR FEW HOURS AFTER FRONT PASSES.
DRY AIR WORKING IN LATER THIS MORNING AND SHOULD HAVE VFR CIGS AND
VSBY BY LATE MORNING OR EARLY AFTERNOON.

.OUTLOOK...VFR WEATHER SATURDAY AND SUNDAY...THEN NON VFR IN
CONVECTION FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
LOW PRESSURE OFF TO THE WEST WILL ALLOW FOR SOUTHEAST TO SOUTH WINDS
OVER THE LAKE THIS EVENING AND TONIGHT. SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS ARE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP AND IMPACT AREAS OF THE LAKE LATER THIS
AFTERNOON AND EVENING. SOME OF THE STORMS MAY BE SEVERE. THE COLD
FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH THE LOW PRESSURE WILL CROSS THE LAKE FRIDAY
MORNING ALLOWING FOR SOUTHWEST WINDS TO TURN WEST. WINDS AND WAVES
ARE EXPECTED TO INCREASE FOR A PERIOD DURING THE DAY FRIDAY BUT THEN
SUBSIDE AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVERHEAD THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT AND
SATURDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE LAKE THROUGH MUCH OF
THE WEEKEND...THEN ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE WILL APPROACH THE LAKE
MONDAY AND MOVE OVER THE AREA MONDAY NIGHT. THIS AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE MAY LINGER IN VICINITY OF THE LAKE ON TUESDAY.
