745 AM EDT WED APR 27 2011

LATEST UPDATE...AVIATION...

.SYNOPSIS...(423 AM EDT WED APR 27 2011)
STEADY RAINFALL WILL OCCUR TODAY INTO TONIGHT.  MANY AREAS WILL SEE
OVER AN INCH OF RAIN.  THIS EXCESSIVE RAINFALL ON TOP OF WHAT HAS
OCCURRED RECENTLY COULD LEAD TO FLOODING NEAR RIVERS AND IN LOW
LYING AREAS.  THE RAIN WILL LINGER INTO THURSDAY AND THURSDAY
NIGHT...BUT WILL BE MUCH LIGHTER.  FINALLY BY FRIDAY...A DRY DAY IS
EXPECTED WITH CLEARING SKIES.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(423 AM EDT WED APR 27 2011)
(TODAY THROUGH FRIDAY)
THE FLOOD WATCH WILL BE MAINTAINED INTO THURSDAY.  THIS...AS ANOTHER
SOLID AREA OF RAINFALL APPROACHES THE CWA EARLY THIS MORNING.
SURFACE LOW PRESSURE WAS TAKING SHAPE OVER THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY AS
OF 08Z AND WILL MOVE OVER LOWER MICHIGAN BY THIS AFTERNOON.  LOW
LEVEL AND UPPER LEVEL JET DYNAMICS REMAIN FAVORABLE OVER SW LOWER
MICHIGAN FOR A PERSISTENT STEADY RAIN TODAY INTO TONIGHT.  ALL AREAS
WITHIN THE CWA SHOULD SEE AN ADDITIONAL THREE QUARTERS TO ONE AND
HALF INCHES OF RAIN OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.  THIS WILL BE FALLING ON
SATURATED GROUNDS AND HIGH RIVER LEVELS DUE TO RECENT RAINS.
THUNDER THREAT LOOKS RATHER MINIMAL AND SHOULD MAINLY OCCUR OVER THE
SE CWA.  NO SEVERE STORMS ARE EXPECTED AS THE LACK OF GOOD HEATING
WILL PREVENT BECOMING UNSTABLE.

THE RAINS WILL LINGER INTO THURSDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT...BUT WILL BE
MUCH LESS INTENSE.  AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL KEEP THE MOISTURE IN
PLACE...BUT THE FAVORABLE JET STRUCTURE MOVES OFF TO THE NE.  THE
RAIN MAY END IN SOME PLACES AFTER MIDNIGHT THURSDAY NIGHT.

SKIES SHOULD CLEAR ON FRIDAY AS THE UPPER TROUGH EXITS AND UPPER
RIDGING MOVES INTO THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES.

&&

.LONG TERM...(423 AM EDT WED APR 27 2011)
(FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY)
MAIN SYSTEM IN THE LONG TERM AFFECTS THE AREA DURING THE SATURDAY
NIGHT AND SUNDAY TIME FRAME. THIS SYSTEM IS CURRENTLY SEEN IN THE
WATER VAPOR IMAGERY SPINNING EAST TOWARD THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST.

FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY MORNING SHOULD BE DRY AND AS WE HAVE BEEN
ADVERTISING WILL FEATURE QUIET AND WARM WEATHER. SOUTHERLY WINDS
AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING SYSTEM SHOULD PROVIDE A MILD FRIDAY NIGHT
WITH LOWS IN THE 40S IN MANY AREAS. WE WILL LIKELY NEED TO BUMP UP
OUR LOWS WITH TIME. ON SATURDAY HIGHS WILL LIKELY PUSH INTO THE
UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S.

SHOWERS AND A FEW THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED SATURDAY NIGHT AS THE
FRONT PRESSES IN FROM THE WEST. INSTABILITY DOES NOT LOOK ALL THAT
IMPRESSIVE THOUGH. SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT SHOWERS WILL LINGER AS A
LOW DRIFTS THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY.

ON MONDAY THE UPSTREAM UPPER LOW WILL BE SHIFTING OVERHEAD AND
MAINTAINED THE CHANCE FOR SHOWERS. THE UPPER LOW REMAINS ON
TUESDAY...BUT MOISTURE LOOKS VERY LIMITED IN CROSS SECTIONS AS WELL
AS MEAN LAYER RH IN THE 1000-700MB LAYER. TEMPERATURES LOOK TO BE
COOLER THAN NORMAL MONDAY AND TUESDAY AS COOL AIR SLIDES INTO THE
GREAT LAKES ASSOCIATED WITH THE UPPER LOW.

&&

.AVIATION...(745 AM EDT WED APR 27 2011)
SWATH OF RAIN WILL PUSH THROUGH THE TAF SITES THIS MORNING INTO THE
EARLY AFTERNOON. IT APPEARS THERE WILL BE A LULL IN ACTIVITY THIS
AFTERNOON. CONDITIONS ARE MAINLY VFR AT THE PRESENT TIME...BUT
SHOULD DIP INTO MVFR FAIRLY QUICK THIS MORNING. CEILINGS SHOULD
REMAIN MVFR THIS AFTERNOON IN THE WAKE OF THE RAIN. ADDITIONAL RAIN
WILL MOVE IN TONIGHT...WITH IFR CONDITIONS POTENTIALLY DEVELOPING.

&&

.MARINE...(423 AM EDT WED APR 27 2011)
WINDS WILL BE RELATIVELY LIGHT TODAY AND TONIGHT AS LOW PRESSURE
MOVES THROUGH THE REGION.  A SCA MAY BE NEEDED BY LATE THURSDAY
MORNING INTO FRIDAY AS COLD ADVECTION TAKES OVER ON A BRISK WEST
WIND.

&&

.HYDROLOGY...(423 AM EDT WED APR 27 2011)
WIDESPREAD THREE QUARTERS TO ONE AND HALF INCHES OF RAIN IS EXPECTED
OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS ACROSS THE CWA.  A FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN
EFFECT ALONG WITH SEVERAL RIVER FLOOD ADVISORIES.  SOME ADVISORIES
MAY NEED TO BE UPGRADED TO WARNINGS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
AT THIS POINT THE CWA APPEARS TO BE SQUARELY IN THE BULLS EYE FOR
HEAVY RAIN.  WITH THE WET GROUNDS AND HIGH RIVER LEVELS...HYDRO
CONCERNS WILL LIKELY CONTINUE INTO THE WEEKEND.
