AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
335 PM EDT SAT SEP 3 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT OVER THE WESTERN LAKES WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA SUNDAY.
CANADIAN HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD TOWARD THE AREA FROM THE
NORTHWEST BEHIND THE FRONT MONDAY. THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL STORM
LEE IS EXPECTED TO MOVE TOWARD THE REGION FOR MID AND LATE IN THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
WATCHING WHETHER ANY THUNDERSTORMS WILL DEVELOP IN THE CWA BEFORE
23Z. SOME CLOUD DEVELOPMENT OVER SOUTHWEST OHIO IS TRYING TO EVOLVE
NORTHWARD AND THAT COULD MEAN ISOLATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS MAY
DEVELOP...AT THIS TIME WILL TRY TO KEEP IT 20 POPS FOR EARLY THIS
EVENING. WATCHING THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS OVER NORTHERN
ILLINOIS...THEY SHOULD SPREAD INTO NORTHWEST OHIO AFTER DARK. SOME
QUESTION IF THEY WILL CONTINUE MOVING EAST OR WEAKEN AS PER THE
GFS MODEL. AT THIS MOMENT BEGINNING TO LEAN TOWARD THE NAM
SOLUTION FOR TONIGHT. SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS COULD BE ON THE
STRONG SIDE.

SOME LOCATIONS MAY TOUCH HEAT ADVISORY CRITERIA BRIEFLY...NOT ENOUGH
TO WARRANT A HEADLINE.

LOWS ARE TOUGH...WENT ON THE MILD SIDE BUT WITH SOME SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS THEY COULD DROP OFF A LITTLE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
THE FORECAST IS TOUGH...USED A BLEND OF THE NAM AND GFS FOR THE
FORECAST. THERE WILL BE SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY AND
THEN THEY SHOULD DECREASE AS THE HIGH TRIES TO BUILD IN FROM THE
NORTHWEST. THE NAM SEEMS TO BE TOO QUICK IN DRYING THINGS OUT
SUNDAY NIGHT...THE GFS/ECMWF ARE SLOWER WHICH MAKES SENSE.

A LITTLE BREAK AND THEN WE WILL WAIT FOR THE REMNANTS OF TROPICAL
STORM LEE TO MOVE UP INTO THE AREA.

THE HIGHS FOR SUNDAY ARE TOUGH...WENT CLOSER TO THE MOS GFS
NUMBERS AS WE MIGHT HAVE A BREAK IN THE SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
OTHERWISE USED A MIX OF THE GUIDANCE FOR THE TEMPERATURES. WHILE
THE FLOW IS ONSHORE WENT WARMER FOR LOWS CLOSE TO LAKE ERIE.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
THE FORECAST MODELS CONTINUE TO SHOW THE TROPICAL SYSTEM OVER THE
GULF MOVING NORTHWARD THROUGH THE COMING WEEK...MAKING IT A WET ONE
FOR US WEDNESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...AND THEN SOME DRYING LATE
FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY AND SUNDAY. I PRETTY MUCH KEPT THE
PREVIOUS EXTENDED FORECAST AND GRIDS WITH VERY LITTLE CHANGE SO WE
WOULDN'T BE FLIP FLOPPING THE NEXT SEVERAL FORECAST CYCLES. SO WILL
KEEP CHC TO SLGT CHC OF PCPN FOR THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.

WILL KEEP TEMPERATURES NEAR OR SLIGHTLY BELOW THE SEASONAL AVERAGES
FOR THE PERIOD THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON WILL PROVIDE
A LIGHT WIND GRADIENT ACROSS THE SITES. A LAKE BREEZE IS POSSIBLE
THIS AFTERNOON FOR TAF SITES KERI AND KCLE WITH WINDS COMING
AROUND TO THE NW...OTHERWISE GENERALLY LIGHT SOUTHWEST WINDS. SOME
SCATTERED CLOUDS POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON DUE TO THE ABUNDANCE OF
MOISTURE.

A COLD FRONT LOCATED THIS AFTERNOON OVER THE CENTRAL GREAT
LAKES REGION WILL APPROACH THE FORECAST AREA LATE TONIGHT AND
SUNDAY. LOOK FOR A SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
LATE TONIGHT AND A GREATER CHANCE FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS
SUNDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH MONDAY.

OUTLOOK...NON VFR CONDITIONS IN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS SUNDAY
THROUGH TUESDAY. NON VFR CONDITIONS TO CONTINUE PROBABLY INTO
WEDNESDAY WITH SHOWERS MAINLY ACROSS NE OH/NW PA.

&&

.MARINE...
A WEAK GRADIENT ACROSS THE LAKES THIS EVENING WILL POSSIBLY RESULT
IN SOME LAKE BREEZES DEVELOPING...THEN WINDS BECOMING MORE SOUTHERLY
OR SOUTHWEST OVERNIGHT. A COLD FRONT OVER CENTRAL GREAT LAKES REGION
WILL DROP SOUTHWARD LATE TONIGHT AND SUNDAY. THIS WILL TURN THE
WINDS WEST AND NORTHWEST WITH THE COLD FRONT SUNDAY NIGHT.

LOOK FOR A COUPLE SURGES OF INCREASED WINDS AND WAVES. THE FIRST
OCCURS SUNDAY NIGHT AND EARLY MONDAY WITH THE SURFACE COLD FRONT
THEN WINDS DIMINISH A BIT MONDAY AFTERNOON. THEN A SECOND INCREASE
AS THE UPPER TROUGH MOVES OVER THE LAKE MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY AS
WINDS TURN MORE NORTHERLY AND NORTHEAST.

SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS ARE POSSIBLE SUNDAY NIGHT AND MONDAY MORNING
AND THEN AGAIN MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS
OVER THE LAKE BY MIDWEEK AS THE COLD FRONT AND TROPICAL SYSTEM MERGE
OVER THE SOUTHERN AND CENTRAL APPALACHIANS AND OVER THE MID-ATLANTIC
STATES.  BY THIS MIDWEEK TIME FRAME THE FLOW WILL BECOME MORE
NORTHEASTERLY...WHERE THE WINDS MAY INCREASE DEPENDING ON INFLUENCE
OF THE COLD FRONT AND TROPICAL SYSTEM MOVING EAST OF OUR FORECAST
AREA.
