What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm 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 severe thunderstorm warning went out at Mar 23, 1:40 PM EDT, 1 hour 34 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Mar 23, 1:40 PM EDT, 1 hour 34 minutes before

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
140 PM EDT WED MAR 23 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL TRACK EAST ALONG A WARM FRONT ACROSS THE AREA
TODAY. A TRAILING COLD FRONT FROM THE LOW WILL PUSH THROUGH
THIS EVENING. COLDER HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN BEHIND THE FRONT
FOR THE END OF THE WEEK.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
A DEEP UPR LVL LOW WILL CONTINUE TO PUSH E/SE TOWARD THE GREAT
LAKES TODAY/OHIO VALLEY REGION TODAY. SFC LOW PRESSURE WILL RIPPLE
ACRS AN ADVANCING WARM FRONT ACRS NRN OHIO. FALLING HEIGHTS AHEAD
OF THE UPR LOW...ALONG WITH AN EMBEDDED DISTURBANCE ON THE EAST
SIDE OF THE UPR LOW...WILL PROVIDE LARGE SCALE ASCENT FOR THIS
AFTERNOON. IN THE LOW LEVELS...SFC LOW WILL AID IN THE INCREASE OF
THE LOW LEVEL JET...PROVIDING SOME LOW LEVEL FORCING/FOCUS.
STEEPENING MID LEVEL LAPSE RATES APCHING 8 C/KM WILL AID IN
DESTABILIZING THE ATMOSPHERE...ALONG WITH WARM SFC TEMPERATURES IN
THE 60S/70S AND DEWPOINTS CLIMBING INTO THE 50S. ALL IN
ALL...REGION REMAINS IN A SLIGHT TO MODERATE RISK FOR SEVERE
WEATHER. CURRENT THINKING IS THAT CONVECTION WILL GET STARTED OVER
CNTRL/SRN INDIANA BY EARLY AFTN...QUICKLY SPREADING EAST AND
INCREASING IN COVERAGE AS IT PASS ACRS OUR REGION. BIGGEST SEVERE
THREATS WILL BE LARGE HAIL DUE TO STEEP LAPSE RATES AND FAT CAPE
LOCATED IN THE MID LVLS...FOLLOWED BY DAMAGING WINDS. ALTHOUGH 0-1
KM SRH IS NOT OVERLY HIGH...STORMS WILL BE CAPABLE OF BECOMING
SUPERCELLULAR DUE TO UNIDIRECTIONAL FLOW THAT MAY LEAD TO
SPLITTING CELLS. ANY RIGHT MOVING CELL FROM THE MEAN FLOW COULD
STILL POSE A TORNADO THREAT. ALL OF THE ABOVE IS MENTIONED IN THE
HWO. WILL MAKE UPDATES TO THE FORECAST AS CONDITIONS WARRANT
THROUGHOUT THE DAY...ESPECIALLY DEWPOINTS AND TEMPERATURES THAT
WILL BE INFLUX.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH FRIDAY/...
AFTER EVENING SHOWERS AND STORMS ACTIVITY SHOULD QUICKLY DIMINISH
WITH ONLY SCATTERED LIGHT RAIN MIXING WITH AND CHANGING TO LIGHT
SNOW. DONT EXPECT ANY ACCUM AND SHOULD BE ENOUGH DRYING OUT TO
KEEP ANY ICY ROADS FROM OCCURRING. TEMPS AT OR JUST ABOVE GUID WITH
CLOUDS. AFTER A FEW MORNING FLURRIES OR SPRINKLES SHOULD SEE GOOD
DRYING AND AFTERNOON SUN. TEMPS WILL STRUGGLE BUT WITH THE
EXPECTATION OF SOME SUN DID NOT STRAY MUCH FROM GUIDANCE. THURSDAY
NIGHT AND FRIDAY SHOULD BE DRY WITH HIGH PRESSURE. SOME INCREASING
CLOUDS ON FRIDAY AHEAD OF NEXT SYSTEM. TEMPS NEAR GUIDANCE.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MODELS CONTINUE TO DISAGREE FOR THE LONG TERM PERIOD.  THE GFS HAS
PRECIPITATION ACROSS THE AREA FOR ALMOST THE ENTIRE WEEKEND WHEREAS
THE ECMWF KEEPS CONDITIONS DRY WITH A MORE SOUTHERN ECMWF STORM
TRACK. DUE TO MODEL RUN INCONSISTENCIES WENT WITH A BLEND AT THIS
POINT HOWEVER WENT CLOSER TO A SOUTHERN SOLUTION. DRY CONDITIONS
WILL BE PRESENT FOR MONDAY BEFORE ANOTHER SYSTEM IMPACTS THE AREA.
THE GFS IS FURTHER SOUTH WITH THIS SYSTEM WHILE THE ECMWF HAS A
MORE NORTHERN TRACK. WENT CLOSER TO THE NORTHERN ECMWF SOLUTION.
MODEL TRENDS HAVE BEEN FASTER WITH THIS SYSTEM AND THEREFORE SPED
UP TIMING WITH PRECIPITATION. TEMPERATURE PROFILES WILL BE ON THE
EDGE FOR PRECIPITATION TYPE AND THEREFORE BELIEVE THAT SOME
LOCATIONS...ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE NORTH WILL MIX WITH SOME SNOW
WITH BOTH THE WEEKEND AND EARLY NEXT WEEK SYSTEMS. TEMPERATURES
WILL BE BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE EXTENDED PERIOD.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
POTENT UPPER LEVEL LOW EXTENDING FROM THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES INTO
THE CENTRAL PLAINS WILL MOVE QUICKLY ESE THROUGH THE REGION DURING
THE TAF PERIOD. A SFC LOW NEAR KIND THIS AFTERNOON WILL RIPPLE
ALONG A WARM FRONT ACRS NRN OHIO THIS AFTN INTO EARLY EVENING. A
COLD FRONT/DRY LINE WILL ACCOMPANY THE LOW. WARM...MOIST AND
UNSTABLE AIRMASS AHEAD OF THE LOW AND FRONT...COMBINED WITH
INCREASING LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE AND UPPER LEVEL LIFT...WILL
RESULT IN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE TAF SITES THROUGH
THE AFTERNOON HOURS. SOME STORMS MAY BE SEVERE WITH LARGE HAIL AND
DAMAGING WINDS. WILL INCLUDE TEMPO -TSRA AT ALL TAF SITES THIS
AFTN. WILL AMEND TAFS IF NECESSARY TO INCLUDE HAIL AND OR STRONG
WINDS SHOULD STRONGER CORES MOVE TOWARD ANY TERMINAL. IT APPEARS
AS THIS ACTIVITY MOVES EAST BY LATE AFTERNOON INTO EARLY
EVENING...THERE MAY BE A BRIEF BREAK IN THE PCPN THREAT.
THEREAFTER...ANOTHER COLD FRONT WILL DROP FROM NW TO SE THROUGH
THE REGION OVERNIGHT. THERE COULD BE SOME ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND
EMBEDDED THUNDER AHEAD OF THE FRONT. AFTER FRONTAL
PASSAGE...COLDER AIR WILL FILTER INTO THE REGION. CIGS WILL LIKELY
DROP INTO THE MVFR CATEGORY BEHIND SECOND FRONT. THE JURY IS
STILL OUT AT THIS POINT WHETHER IFR CIGS WILL FORM. GIVEN WEAK LOW
LEVEL FORCING OVERNIGHT...AND A LACK OF MID LVL MOISTURE...SOME
PATCHY DRIZZLE WILL BE POSSIBLE...WITH FREEZING DRIZZLE WHERE
TEMPERATURES FALL TO OR LOWER THAN FREEZING.

ON THURSDAY...ANY THREAT OF DRIZZLE/FREEZING DRIZZLE SHOULD END
DURING THE MORNING HOURS. MVFR CIGS WILL CONTINUE DURING THE MORNING...
WITH A CLEARING TREND STARTING CLOSE TO THE NORTHERN TAF SITES
AROUND 18Z AS A RIDGE OF HIGH PRESSURE AND DRIER AIR BUILD
SOUTHWARD INTO THE GREAT LAKES.

OUTLOOK...MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES POSSIBLE FRIDAY NIGHT
INTO SUNDAY.
