AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
150 PM EDT THU OCT 13 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A SURFACE LOW PRESSURE AND ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
THROUGH THE REGION TONIGHT AND FRIDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD
SOUTH OF THE AREA SATURDAY. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTH INTO THE
AREA ON SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
BY MIDDAY AND THEN GOING INTO THE AFTERNOON SHOWERS WILL BE
MOVING INTO THE AREA FROM THE SOUTH. LOOKS LIKE THE AREA WILL BE
MAINLY DRY THROUGH MIDDAY...BUT THEN INCREASE POPS QUICKLY AFTER
AROUND 2 PM FROM SOUTH TO NORTH. BY LATE AFTERNOON AND EVENING
POPS INCREASE TO LIKELY AS THE LOW PRESSURE AND COLD FRONT
APPROACHES. WHILE NOT REAL IMPRESSIVE DID AT LEAST MENTION A
SLIGHT CHC OF SOME THUNDER LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING...AND CARRIED
THE SLGT CHC OF A THUNDERSTORM INTO THE FIRST HALF OF TONIGHT.

TEMPS WILL BE TRICKY TODAY WITH VARIABLE CLOUDS THIS MORNING AND
PRECIP DEVELOPING THIS AFTERNOON. IN GENERAL HAVE MID 60S FOR
MOST LOCATIONS WITH PERHAPS UPPER 60S ACROSS INTERIOR NE OH WHERE
SHOWERS MIGHT NOT GET THERE UNTIL LATER THIS AFTERNOON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
AS MENTIONED ABOVE CONTINUED THE SLGT CHC FOR THUNDER AHEAD OF THE
COLD FRONT THAT IS STILL EXPECTED TO CROSS THROUGH THE AREA
THURSDAY NIGHT. GOOD COLD AIR ADVECTION BUILDING IN BEHIND THE
FRONT LATE THURSDAY NIGHT AND INTO FRIDAY WITH THICKNESS DROPPING
RATHER QUICKLY DURING FRIDAY MORNING. HAVE POPS GRADUALLY
DECREASING FROM SOUTHWEST TO NORTHEAST THROUGH FRIDAY AFTERNOON
BUT MAINTAINED AT LEAST LIKELY POPS FOR FRIDAY NIGHT AND EVEN INTO
SATURDAY MORNING ACROSS NE OH AND NW PA...WHILE DRYING OUT
SOUTHWEST AREAS.

TEMPERATURES ON FRIDAY WILL BE TOUGH AS HIGHS FOR THE DAY MAY BE
IN THE MORNING ACROSS FAR EASTERN AREAS. FOR NOW MENTIONED NORMAL
DIURNAL TRENDS...BUT DIDN/T ALLOW FOR MUCH RECOVERY WITH HIGHS ON
FRIDAY COMPARED TO THURSDAY NIGHT LOWS.

UPPER TROUGH STILL SWINGING THROUGH THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT BUT BY
THIS TIME LOOKS LIKE ANY SHOWERS WILL BE MAINLY CONFINED TO MAINLY
NE OH AND NW PA...AND EVEN BY THEN GIVEN THE WIND DIRECTION SHOWERS
MAY MAINLY BE CLOSER TO THE LAKESHORE.

FOR SATURDAY HAVE CHC POPS MOSTLY ACROSS NE OH AND NW PA WITH
MAINLY DRY ACROSS THE REMAINDER OF THE AREA. DESPITE THE DRY
CONDITIONS....FORECAST HIGHS ARE STILL EXPECTED TO RANGE IN THE
UPPER 50S TO AROUND 60S WITH CONTINUING GUSTY WINDS.

HIGH PRESSURE TRIES TO RIDGE INTO THE AREA SATURDAY NIGHT FROM THE
SOUTH. HOWEVER...WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR THE NEXT COLD FRONT THAT
MAY SAG SOUTH INTO THE AREA AS EARLY AS MIDDAY SUNDAY. GIVEN
MODEL DIFFERENCES KEPT POPS IN THE CHC CATEGORY FOR NOW WITH
INCREASING CLOUDS AND SLIGHTLY WARMER TEMPS.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MONDAY IS TOUGH THE GFS MODEL IS HINTING AT SOME LINGERING
SHOWERS...WILL HAVE 20 POPS. OTHERWISE WILL HAVE POPS IN THROUGH
WEDNESDAY. A STRONG FRONT MOVES THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT AND TUESDAY
MORNING. TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY THE BEST CHANCE FOR SHOWERS
WILL BE OVER NORTHEAST OHIO AND NORTHWEST PA. THE LAKE AND 850 MB
TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE WILL BE NEAR 18C. TEMPERATURES WILL BE BELOW
NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
MVFR CEILINGS WILL LIFT EARLY THIS AFTERNOON AHEAD OF THE SHOWERS
THAT ARE DEVELOPING ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PORTION OF
OHIO. AS THE SHOWERS ARRIVE EXPECT TO SEE CEILINGS DROP BACK TO
AT LEAST MVFR LEVELS. HOWEVER VISIBILITIES IN THE HEAVIER SHOWERS
WILL LIKELY DROP TO IFR LEVELS. CEILINGS WILL CONTINUE TO LOWER AS
THE RAINFALL CONTINUES OVERNIGHT WITH MOST LOCATIONS SEEING IFR
CONDITIONS AT SOME POINT. THE ONLY EXCEPTION MAY BE KERI WHERE
THE DOWNSLOPE FLOW MAY BE ENOUGH TO KEEP CEILINGS AT MVFR LEVELS.

THE RAIN WILL END FROM WEST TO EAST OF FRIDAY BUT WILL LINGER THE
LONGEST ACROSS NORTHEAST OHIO INTO NW PA. WINDS WILL BE ON THE
INCREASE WITH GUSTS OF 25 KNOTS COMMON. DURING THE AFTERNOON WINDS
MAY BE STRONGER NEAR THE LAKESHORE.

OUTLOOK...NON-VFR POSSIBLE NORTHEAST OHIO AND NWRN PA SATURDAY.
NON-VFR LIKELY AGAIN SUNDAY INTO MONDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
EASTERLY WINDS WILL DEVELOP ON THE LAKE TODAY BUT CONDITIONS SHOULD
REMAIN BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY CRITERIA. THE HIGHEST WAVES WILL
BE ON THE WEST END OF THE LAKE. A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS THE LAKE
TONIGHT. THE WINDS WILL BECOME SOUTHERLY AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND THEN
WEST AFTER THE FRONTAL PASSAGE. WINDS AND WAVES WILL BE ON THE
INCREASE ON THE LAKE LATE TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING. GALE
FORCE WINDS ARE POSSIBLE MAINLY SATURDAY. IF THE MODEL TRENDS
CONTINUE A GALE WATCH MAY BE ISSUED BY THE DAY SHIFT. THE WINDS WILL
DECREASE SATURDAY NIGHT AND BECOME SOUTHWEST AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT
THAT WILL MOVE THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT. A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY WILL
LIKELY BE NEEDED SUNDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN FOR MONDAY AND
THEN ANOTHER FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL AFFECT THE AREA TUESDAY WITH STRONG
SOUTHWEST WINDS AHEAD OF THE FRONT AND NORTHWEST BEHIND IT. AT THIS
