What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this river flood warning went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Wilmington, OH wrote its last area forecast discussion before this river flood warning went out at May 11, 1:56 AM EDT, 29 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, May 11, 1:56 AM EDT, 29 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
156 AM EDT WED MAY 11 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A MID LVL RIDGE AXIS LOCATED FROM THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES
SOUTHWARD TO THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WILL MOVE SLOWLY
EAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH THE END OF THE WORK WEEK.
MEANWHILE...A WARM FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN ACROSS THE
REGION...EVENTUALLY WASHING OUT BY THE END OF THE WORK WEEK.
SUMMER-LIKE TEMPERATURES CAN BE EXPECTED DURING THIS PERIOD.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/...
A SLOW MOVING MOISTURE BOUNDARY IS ORIENTED NW TO SE ACROSS THE
OHIO VALLEY BETWEEN DAYTON AND COLUMBUS TONIGHT. THIS BOUNDARY
WILL COMBINE WITH AMPLE INSTABILITY TO ALLOW THUNDERSTORMS TO
TRIGGER THROUGHOUT THE LATE EVENING HOURS. ONCE ENOUGH DIURNAL
COOLING OCCURS LATER TONIGHT...EXPECT THE ACTIVITY TO DIMINISH
INTO THE MORNING. PATCHY FOG ALREADY DEVELOPING WILL CONTINUE TO
DEVELOP THROUGHOUT THE NIGHTTIME...ESPECIALLY IN AREAS THAT
RECEIVED RAINFALL TODAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A SUMMER-LIKE PATTERN IS IN THE OFFING DURING THE SHORT TERM PERIOD.

A MID LVL RIDGE AXIS WILL SLOWLY MOVE EAST ACRS THE FORECAST AREA
THROUGH THE PERIOD. HOWEVER...THE RIDGE WILL NOT BRING COMPLETE
DRY WEATHER AS A WARM AND HUMID AIRMASS WILL BE IN PLACE.
THIS...ALONG WITH WEAK LOW LEVEL FORCING AND WEAK WX DISTURBANCES
ROTATING THROUGH THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW...WILL RESULT IN CHANCES OF
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THE BEST CHANCES WILL LIKELY OCCUR DURING
THE PEAK HEATING OF THE DAY INTO THE EVENING HOURS. HIGHS IN THE
LOWER AND MID 80S AND LOWS IN THE LOWER AND MID 60S ARE EXPECTED
WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. ON FRIDAY...MORE CLOUD COVER A LITTLE
HIGHER CHC FOR PCPN WILL TEMPER HIGHS DOWN INTO THE UPPER 70S TO THE
LOWER 80S.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
A HIGHLY AMPLIFIED UPPER LEVEL FLOW PATTERN IS ANTICIPATED DURING
THE LONG TERM PERIOD. IN FACT...THE FLOW WILL BECOME BLOCKY IN
NATURE AND WILL RESULT IN LARGE SYNOPTIC SCALE SYSTEMS TO MOVE
MORE NORTH TO SOUTH THAN WEST TO EAST. HAVE USED A BLEND OF THE
NCEP/HPC GUIDANCE AND THE 00Z ECMWF TO KEEP SOME CONTINUITY TO THE
FORECAST AS WELL AS TO BETTER COLLABORATE WITH SURROUNDING
OFFICES.

AN UPR LEVEL CLOSED LOW IS FORECAST TO MOVE SLOWLY SOUTHWARD FROM
THE MID MS RIVER VALLEY INTO THE LOWER GULF COAST STATES FROM
SATURDAY INTO MONDAY. AS THIS OCCURS...A COLD FRONT WILL SLIDE
FROM NORTH TO SOUTH ACRS THE AREA FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY.
A MOISTURE FETCH OFF THE ATLANTIC WILL BE PULLED BACK WEST INTO
THE REGION...RESULTING IN THE THREAT FOR PCPN. HAVE KEPT BOTH A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS GOING SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY
NIGHT...TRANSITIONING OVER TO A CHANCE OF SHOWERS ON SUNDAY AS
INSTBY DECREASES WITH A COOLER AIRMASS. MODEL TRENDS INDICATE THAT
THE THREAT OF PCPN WILL BE SLOW TO EXIT THE REGION SUNDAY NIGHT
INTO MONDAY GIVEN THE SLOW MOVEMENT OF SYNOPTIC SYSTEMS. SFC HIGH
PRESSURE IS POISED AT THIS TIME TO BUILD INTO THE REGION MONDAY
NIGHT INTO TUESDAY WHICH SHOULD ALLOW THE REGION TO DRY OUT BY
THEN. TEMPERATURES THROUGH THE PERIOD WILL SHOW A COOLING TREND
GIVEN CLOUDS...PCPN AND A NORTHEAST SFC WIND FLOW. COULD EVEN BE
COOLER THAN CURRENTLY FORECAST...BUT WILL NOT GO THAT EXTREME AT
THIS TIME.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
LINE OF CONVECTION IS RUNNING BETWEEN TAFS ATTM. CONVECTION N OF
ILN IS SAGGING S AND MAY CLIP ILN OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS.
KEPT ILN AS VCTS RIGHT NOW...BUT DID BRING AN ELY GUST IN BETWEEN
7-9Z.

CLOUDS SHOULD HELP MITIGATE FOG...BUT BUT IN MVFR FOG AT ALL LOCATIONS.

H5 RIDGE REBUILDS AFT 12Z. LOOKS LIKE CLOUDS WILL SCT OUT. WENT
DRY WITH THE TAFS.

ANOTHER S/W TOPS THE RIDGE AFT 00Z TONIGHT...SO ADDED VCTS TO THE
TAFS.

OUTLOOK...THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

&&

.ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...
OH...NONE.
KY...NONE.
IN...NONE.
