AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
1218 PM EST SUN DEC 18 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT NORTHEAST OF THE AREA BY THIS AFTERNOON.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL MOVE FROM THE TN VALLEY TO THE APPALACHIANS AND
BRING WARMER AIR NORTHWARD. THE NEXT COLD FRONT WILL SINK SOUTH
ACROSS THE AREA EARLY MONDAY NIGHT...BUT THEN COME BACK NORTH
AGAIN AS A WARM FRONT FOR TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
A FEW FLAKES LEFT NEAR THE I-77 CORRIDOR...WITH THE REST OF THE
LIGHT SNOW EAST OF THAT LINE. A FEW LAKE ENHANCED SNOW SHOWERS
WILL MAKE THEIR WAY INTO LAKE/ASHTABULA/ERIE/CRAWFORD BEFORE DAWN
LEAVING A HALF INCH TO AN INCH OF NEW SNOW. AFTER THIS
THOUGH...LITTLE OR NO ADDITIONAL ACCUMULATION FOR TODAY.
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEARLY STEADY FOR THE MORNING
HOURS...WITH A RISE LATE IN THE DAY WHEN HOPEFULLY THE THE EDGE OF
THE THICKER CLOUD DECK STARTS TO SHIFT EAST AND THE BETTER WARM
AIR ADVECTION TAKES PLACE. SSW FLOW WILL INCREASE AS THE DAY GOES
ON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEARLY STEADY TONIGHT IN THE LOWER/MID
30S. NEXT COLD FRONT WILL ARRIVE FOR LATER MONDAY. A DECENT AMOUNT
OF LIFT/CONVERGENCE WITH THIS FRONT. ENOUGH MOISTURE WILL BE
AVAILABLE TO SQUEEZE OUT SOME SHOWERS. HAVE RAISED PRECIP CHANCES
TO HIGH CHANCE TO LIKELY. BY THIS POINT TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE
COLUMN WILL BE WARM ENOUGH TO SUPPORT ALL RAIN AND NOT WORRIED
ABOUT ANY OTHER PRECIP TYPE...EVEN EARLY MONDAY MORNING. WILL GO
FOR HIGHS AROUND 40.

EVERYTHING STILL CONSISTENT IN GETTING THE FRONT THROUGH THE AREA
BEFORE IT STALLS LATER MONDAY NIGHT. WILL KEEP THE GRADIENT IN
POPS...WITH THE HIGHER CHANCES SOUTH OF MANSFIELD. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BE POSITIONED TO OUR NORTH GIVING A NNE DRYING FLOW FOR THE
NORTHERN PART OF THE AREA. TEMPS WILL BE SOMEWHAT COOLER MONDAY
NIGHT...HOVERING AROUND 30 OR 32 DEGREES...BUT WILL REBOUND AGAIN
TUESDAY AS THE FRONT PUSHES NORTH. LOOKING FOR ABOVE FREEZING
TEMPERATURES FROM TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT WITH OFF AND ON
SHOWERS AS THIS SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
NOT MANY CHANGES TO THE LONG TERM THIS MORNING.  NEW 00Z GUIDANCE IN
FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT.  BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF TRACK AN AREA OF LOW
PRESSURE UP THE OHIO VALLEY DURING THE MIDDLE PART OF THE WEEK.
SOME LAKE EFFECT RAIN/SNOW SHOWERS COULD OCCUR ON THE BACK SIDE OF
THIS SYSTEM THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT.  ANOTHER SYSTEM WILL PASS
TO THE SOUTHEAST AT THE END OF THE WEEK.  THE LOCAL AREA WILL BE ON
THE NORTHERN END OF THE PRECIP SHIELD WITH TEMPS JUST COLD ENOUGH
FOR SOME LIGHT SNOW.  QUIET WEATHER SHOULD RETURN FOR SATURDAY.
TEMPS DURING THE PERIOD SHOULD AVERAGE A TAD ABOVE NORMAL.

&&

.AVIATION /17Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
LAST REMNANTS OF THE SNOW EXTEME NE OH/NW PA WILL COME TO AN END
NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. CONDITIONS WILL GRADUALLY IMPROVE TO VFR
ACROSS ENTIRE AREA FROM THE SW. SW FLOW WILL GRADUALLY INCREASE
TO 15G25 KNOTS TONIGHT AHEAD OF APPROACHING COLD.

OUTLOOK...NON VFR AGAIN MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY....WITH RAIN
SHOWERS.

&&

.MARINE...
MAINLY SW FLOW IS EXPECTED ON LAKE ERIE TILL A COLD FRONT SAGS SOUTH
ACROSS THE LAKE MONDAY NIGHT.  SPEEDS WILL INCREASE ENOUGH TONIGHT
TO WARRANT A SMALL CRAFT HEADLINE.  N TO NE FLOW BEHIND THE FRONT
WILL BECOME EAST TO SOUTHEAST AHEAD OF AN AREA OF LOW PRESSURE
TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT.  THE FLOW WILL EVENTUALLY BECOME
SOUTHERLY FOR A TIME WEDNESDAY AS THE LOW PASSES JUST TO THE NORTH
OF THE LAKE.  WEST TO SOUTHWEST FLOW IS THEN EXPECTED BEHIND THE LOW
