AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
432 PM EDT MON MAR 21 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
A NEARLY STATIONARY FRONT WILL DROP SOUTH ALONG THE OHIO RIVER
TONIGHT AND PROVIDE A FOCUS FOR SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY.
IT WILL THEN LIFT NORTHWARD ON TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY AS A
WARM FRONT...STALLING OUT ALONG THE I-70 CORRIDOR. LOW PRESSURE
WILL THEN TRACK EAST ALONG THIS BOUNDARY ON WEDNESDAY...PROVIDING
A STRONG SOURCE OF LIFT FOR SHOWER ACTIVITY OVER MUCH OF THE REGION.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM TUESDAY MORNING/...
W-E FRONTAL BOUNDARY SOUTH OF THE I-70 CORRIDOR WILL REMAIN A
FOCUS FOR SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY THIS AFTERNOON.
DYNAMICS AND THE NOTED ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY CROSS EAST QUICKLY
THIS EVENING...BUT THE FOCUS FOR DEVELOPMENT WILL SLOWLY SHIFT
SOUTH AND NOSE INTO NORTHERN KENTUCKY AND THE CINCINNATI METRO
AREA EARLY THIS EVENING BEFORE LOSING ALL OF ITS DAYTIME FORCING.

CELLS THIS AFTERNOON WILL CONTAIN SOME SMALL HAIL...GENERALLY
UNDER A HALF INCH. MAX CAPES OF 500 J/KG ARE PROGGED AT PORTSMOUTH
TO BE RIGHT AROUND 7-8 PM...AND DIE QUICKLY AFTER THAT. ANY CELLS
THAT ARE ONGOING ALONG THE OHIO RIVER CORRIDOR BY THAT TIME WILL
SEE A MARKED DECREASE WITH NIGHTFALL.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE BOUNDARY WILL STALL OUT ALONG THE OHIO RIVER AND ORIENT IN A
MORE WNW-ESE FASHION...AND LIFT NORTH LATER IN THE DAY...HANGING
TOUGH THROUGH WEDNESDAY ALONG THE I-70 CORRIDOR. LATER ON
WED...A SURFACE LOW WILL TRACK EAST AND BE THE ONUS FOR
SIGNIFICANT SHOWER ACTIVITY...AND SOME CONTINUED THUNDERSTORMS.

UNTIL THE STRONG ASCENT WITH THE SURFACE FORCING AND LOW CROSSES
THE AREA...SCATTERED SHOWERS WILL REMAIN A POSSIBILITY WITH THE
BROAD UPWARD MOTION ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT.

TEMPERATURES WERE GENERALLY LEFT ALONE AS CURRENT MODEL GUIDANCE
WAS BLENDED IN. A 1-2 DEG BUMP WAS NOTED SOUTH SOUTHWEST OF THE
OHIO RIVER IN THE NEXT FEW DAYS WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE WARM
SECTOR. A MORE MODERATE 5 DEG BUMP DOWN WAS SHOWN ON WEDNESDAYS
HIGHS AS THE COLDER AIR GETS PULLED IN WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE
SURFACE FRONT.

TEMPERATURES COOL OFF SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THE NORTH WED NIGHT AND
THICKNESSES MAY DROP ENOUGH TO SUPPORT SOME SNOW MIXING IN NORTH
OF THE I-70 CORRIDOR. HOWEVER...THE CHANCE FOR RAIN/SNOW WILL BE
DIMINISHING SIGNIFICANTLY DURING THE SAME TIME FRAME WITH THE
DOWNWARD MOTION ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE LOW.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
EXTENDED MODELS CONTINUE TO DIVERGE ON THEIR SOLUTIONS BY THE
WEEKEND...WITH THE GFS SOLUTIONS CLUSTERING AT ONE ANSWER AND THE
ECMWF MEMBERS WITH ANOTHER. SO CONFIDENCE REMAINS LOW FOR THE
WEEKEND FORECAST.

MODELS DO AGREE FOR ABOUT THE FIRST 24 HOURS OF THE FCST...SO LETS
START THERE. PERIOD BEGINS WITH THE FA ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE
EXITING SFC LOW. NLY CAA WILL CAUSE A RAIN/SNOW MIX ACROSS THE N.
FOR THE SOUTH THICKNESSES SHOULD BE HIGH ENUF FOR THE PCPN TO STAY
RAIN.

HIGH PRESSURE RIDGE BUILDS DOWN THU NGT FROM THE GREAT LAKES. THIS
IS WHERE THE MODELS DIVERGE. THE ECMWF RUNS BRING A WEAK SYSTEM OUT
OF THE MS VALLEY AND UP THRU KY ON FRIDAY...SPREADING SOME RAIN TO
THE FA. GFS IS A LITTLE SLOWER WITH THIS OVERRUNNING AS IT IS
DEVELOPING DEEP LOW OUT OVER THE PLAINS. THE GFS THEN BRINGS A
CLOSED SFC LOW ACROSS KY DURING THE WEEKEND...KEEPING PCPN ON AND
OFF ALL WEEKEND. THE 00Z ECMWF WAS QUICKER AND WEAKER WITH ITS KY
SYSTEM SO IT HAD PCPN EXITING THE FA ON SUNDAY. DECIDED TO RUN A
BLEND BETWEEN THE TWO SOLUTIONS. I SEE THAT THE 12Z ECMWF IS JUST
IT AND IT HAS TRENDED TOWARDS THE GFS SOLUTION.

SO KEPT PCPN ACROSS THE FA THRU THE WEEKEND. CRITICAL THICKNESSES
ARE MARGINAL THROUGH MOST OF THE PERIOD...SO SNOW IS POSSIBLE ACROSS
THE NRN PARTS. HIGH PRESSURE FINALLY BUILDS IN BY MONDAY.

THE 12Z GFS MEANWHILE DROPS ENERGY OUT OF THE ROCKIES INTO THE
PLAINS AND DEVELOPS A DEEP LOW FRI NGT. IN RESPONSE TO THE LOW A
WRMFNT DEVELOPS OVER THE OH VLY FRI NGT AND OVERRUNNING PCPN SPREADS
OVER THE FA LATE FRI NGT. THE LOW GRADUALLY WORKS E UP THE OH VALLEY
PRODUCING PCPN THE ENTIRE WEEKEND.

WITH THE BLEND BETWEEN THE MODELS USED HPC FOR TEMPERATURES THROUGH
THE PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL STAY IN THE VICINITY THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD.
GREATEST CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION WILL BE DURING THE AFTERNOON
HOURS TODAY. SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED
NEAR THE NORTHERN TAF SITES AND THEREFORE HAVE MENTION OF VCSH AND
CB. DUE TO SCATTERED HIT AND MISS NATURE OF THE STORMS DID NOT PUT
TSRA IN THE TAF FORECAST AT THIS TIME. WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO GUST
DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS BEFORE SUBSIDING THIS EVENING. MODEL
SOUNDINGS ARE STILL INDICATING LOW LEVEL MOISTURE LATE DURING THE
OVERNIGHT HOURS AND INTO PART OF THE DAY ON TUESDAY. SINCE THIS
HAS BEEN OVERDONE LATELY DECIDED DID NOT GO AS LOW AS THIS WAS
SUGGESTING AND WENT MVFR FOR NOW.

OUTLOOK...MVFR CEILINGS POSSIBLE ON TUESDAY. MVFR CEILINGS AND
VISIBILITIES POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY INTO FRIDAY.
