AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
351 PM EDT FRI AUG 19 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL DISSIPATE ACROSS THE REGION THIS
EVENING...ALLOWING WEAK HIGH PRESSURE TO BUILD INTO THE AREA. WEAK
HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN SLIDE OFF TO THE EAST ON SATURDAY. A
DIGGING UPPER LEVEL TROUGH ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES SATURDAY NIGHT
AND SUNDAY WILL SEND A COLD FRONT THROUGH THE REGION.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
REMNANT WEAK FRONTAL BOUNDARY WAS LOCATED ACROSS THE NRN CWFA THIS
AFTERNOON. MEANWHILE...A DECAYING MCS WAS PUSHING THROUGH
KENTUCKY. MCS CLOUD SHIELD AND LIGHT PCPN ASSOCD WITH IT WILL
SHIFT OFF TO THE SE THIS EVENING. CONVECTION ASSOCD WITH WEAK
FRONTAL BOUNDARY SHOULD DISSIPATE AFTER SUNSET AS THE AIRMASS
STABILIZES AND THE BOUNDARY WASHES OUT. THEREAFTER...A SHORTWAVE
RIDGE IS FORECAST TO MOVE INTO THE AREA...AS WELL AS WEAK HIGH
PRESSURE AT THE SURFACE. PARTLY CLOUDY TO MOSTLY CLOUDY SKIES THIS
EVENING WILL GIVE WAY TO MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES OVERNIGHT. LOWS WILL
RANGE FROM THE LOWER TO MID 60S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
WEAK HIGH PRESSURE AT THE SURFACE AND ALOFT WILL MOVE EAST OF THE
AREA ON SATURDAY. AM EXPECTING A GOOD DEAL OF SUNSHINE BEFORE
CLOUDS BEGIN TO INCREASE FROM THE WEST AHEAD OF NEXT WEATHER
SYSTEM. MAJORITY OF MODELS KEEP THE FORECAST AREA DRY THROUGH THE
AFTN HOURS AND HAVE PLAYED THE FORECAST THIS WAY.

FOR SATURDAY NIGHT...DIGGING UPR LVL TROUGH ACRS THE GREAT LAKES
WILL PUSH A COLD FRONT SE INTO THE REGION. MODELS VARY ON THE
STRENGTH OF LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE WITH THE GFS BEING WEAK AND THE
NAM BEING MORE ROBUST. THERE SHOULD BE ENOUGH DYANIMCS....I.E. LOW
LEVEL CONVERGENCE AND UPR LVL SUPPORT...TO WARRANT LIKELY POPS
ATTM. LOOKS LIKE THREAT FOR SEVERE STORMS WILL BE LIMITED DUE TO
WEAK INSTABILITY FORECAST AT THE TIME CONVECTION MOVES INTO OUR
AREA. HOWEVER...WITH PWAT VALUES RANGING FROM 1.50 TO
1.75...LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH ANY THUNDERSTORM.

AS FOR TEMPERATURES...HIGHS WILL PUSH INTO THE UPPER 80S TO AROUND
90 ON SATURDAY. LOWS SATURDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE FROM THE MID 60S
NORTH TO NEAR 70 SOUTH.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED TO PUSH SOUTHEASTWARD ACROSS THE FORECAST
AREA BEGINNING SUNDAY MORNING...AND SHOULD HAVE CROSSED THE AREA IN
ENTIRETY BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. RAIN CHANCES WILL END WITH THE PASSAGE
OF THE FRONT. RESIDUAL LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND ASSOCIATED CLOUD
COVER...COMBINED WITH COLD AIR ADVECTION THROUGHOUT SUNDAY AFTERNOON
WILL RESULT IN TEMPERATURES STRUGGLING TO REACH THE LOWER 80S ACROSS
THE CENTRAL AND NORTHERN ZONES. LOW TO MID 80S ARE EXPECTED IN THE
SOUTHERN ZONES. HOWEVER...THESE FORECAST TEMPS MAY BE A TAD TOO HIGH
IF CLOUD COVER PERSISTS.

SURFACE RIDGE WILL DOMINATE OUR WEATHER WITH DRY CONDITIONS AND
MOSTLY CLEAR SKIES ON TAP FOR SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY
AFTERNOON.

THE SURFACE RIDGE WILL SHIFT EASTWARD LATE TUESDAY AS A TROUGH
APPROACHES FROM THE NORTHWEST. SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL INCREASE MOISTURE
AND TEMPERATURES TUESDAY NIGHT INTO WEDNESDAY. MODELS ARE IN FAIR
AGREEMENT ON BRINGING UPPER LEVEL TROUGH AND CHANCES FOR
PRECIPITATION ACROSS OUR AREA SOMETIME BETWEEN EARLY WEDNESDAY
MORNING AND THURSDAY MORNING. THEREFORE...HAVE INTRODUCED SLIGHT
CHANCE POPS DURING THIS TIME PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /20Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
WEAK SFC PRESSURE PATTERN ACROSS THE AREA TODAY WITH AN UPPER
LEVEL DISTURBANCE TRAVERSING THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY. EXTENSIVE MID LEVEL
CLOUD DECK HAS SPREAD FROM IND INTO SW OH. PRECIP OVER SOUTHERN
IND HAS BEEN WANING IN INTENSITY BUT CONTINUES TO TRACK TO THE

INCLUDED A VCSH AT CVG/LUK. MEANWHILE A WEAK BOUNDARY EXTENDS FROM
WESTERN PA TO COLUMBUS AREA DENOTED BY AGITATED CU FIELD AND
DEVELOPING TSTMS OVER EASTERN OH. STILL A BIT UNCERTAIN OF
COVERAGE FARTHER WEST...SO HAVE ONLY INCLUDED A CB AT CMH/LCK.

FOR TONIGHT...MODELS INDICATING CLEARING TREND IN THE SKIES. MODEL
MOISTURE FIELDS ARE INDICATING THE LIKELIHOOD OF SOME REDUCED VSBY.

FOG FORMATION AT LUK...SO HAVE TRENDED VSBY TO IFR THERE. HAVE
