AN

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
326 AM EDT MON APR 4 2011

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE WILL CROSS NORTHEAST THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES REGION
TODAY. A TRAILING COLD FRONT WILL MOVE SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE OHIO
VALLEY AT THE SAME TIME. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE MIDWEST
EARLY ON TUESDAY AND USHER IN DRIER AIR TO THE OHIO VALLEY

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
WAS INITIALLY TOYING WITH LOWERING GUSTS TO SUB-ADVISORY CRITERIA
EARLY TODAY BUT A FEW UPSTREAM SITES OVER WESTERN KENTUCKY AND
INDIANA ARE GUSTING AT THIS RANGE ALREADY IN THE PRE-THUNDERSTORM
ENVIRONMENT.

THESE GUSTY WINDS WILL CONTINUE TO ADVECT IN UNSEASONABLY MILD AIR
AND HIGH TEMPERATURES TODAY MAY OCCUR AT OR AROUND DAYBREAK FOR
NORTHWESTERN PORTIONS OF THE CWA. A SIGNIFICANT CLOUD SHIELD IS
OVERSPREADING THE REGION EARLY THIS MORNING SO DAYTIME INSOLATION
IS NOT LIKELY TO ADD ANY TO HIGHS TODAY. GENERALLY POPULATED WITH
LAMP GUIDANCE OVER CWA TODAY.

EXPECT WINDS TO DIE DOWN IN THE IMMEDIATE STORM ENVIRONMENT AND
THAT WILL BE THE END OF ADVISORY BUT KICK IN ANY SPECIAL WEATHER
STATEMENTS AND POSSIBLE WARNINGS. EXPECT DAYSHIFT TO TRIM COUNTIES
FROM THE ADVISORY AS SHOWERS DEVELOP AND MOVE EAST.

SEVERE THREAT APPEARS TO BE LIMITED TODAY AND I AM PRIMARILY
EXPECTING THE WORST OF IT TO OCCUR WITH A LEADING LEWP WHEN AND IF
THIS FEATURE DEVELOPS. SOUTHEAST CWA STANDS THE BEST CHANCE FOR
GETTING SEVERE AS CLEARER SKIES OVER EASTERN KENTUCKY WILL ALLOW
FOR SURFACE INSTABILITY TO ADVECT IN NICELY AND GET WRUNG OUT WITH
THE APPROACHING STORMS LATER TODAY.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
STORMS WILL DIE OUT QUICKLY THIS EVENING IN THE POST FRONTAL
ENVIRONMENT...DYING OUT ENTIRELY WITH THE PASSAGE OF THE H5
TROUGH. COLDER AIR WILL ADVECT IN ON UNIFORM NORTHWEST FLOW AS
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN THE MIDWEST. SOUTHERLY FLOW WILL RETURN TO
THE REGION LATE TUESDAY...BUT NIGHTTIME LOWS WILL REMAIN COOL AS
THE SURFACE SHOULD DECOUPLE AND ANY WINDS WON'T BE ABLE TO MAKE A
SURFACE APPEARANCE UNTIL THE MIX DURING THE DAYTIME HEATING ON
WEDNESDAY. DID NOT MAKE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO MAX/MIN TEMPS
THROUGH THE PERIOD AFTER TODAY.

MODELS ARE POINTING AT THE POSSIBILITY OF A NARROW BAND OF SHOWERS
BEING SQUEEZED OUT NORTH OF THE I-70 CORRIDOR IN OHIO AND INDIANA
ON WEDNESDAY. THIS REMAINS TO BE SEEN BUT SOME LOW CHANCE POPS
WERE WARRANTED AS THE WARM ADVECTION OVER THE REGION SHOULD BRING
IN ANOTHER ROUND OF MOISTURE...COINCIDING WITH A SURFACE LOW
DROPPING SOUTH AND STALLING IN THE SOUTHERN GREAT LAKES/NORTHERN
OHIO VALLEY REGION.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
UPPER LEVEL TROF TO SHIFT EAST EARLY ON TUE WITH THE FLOW BECOMING
NORTHWESTERLY. WL CONTINUE CHC/SLIGHT CHC POPS OF SHOWERS EARLY TUE
AND THEN IMPROVING CONDITIONS AS SFC RIDGE BUILDS IN. THE UPPER
LEVEL FLOW BACKS MORE WESTERLY WITH THE SFC RIDGE AXIS SLIDING OFF
TO THE EAST ON WED. A FAST MOVING WAVE TO TRACK THRU THE GREAT LAKES
WED/WED NIGHT. WITH THE BEST MOISTURE AND LIFT STAYING NORTH OF
ILN/S AREA WL MAINTAIN A DRY FCST. FNTL BOUNDARY TO LAY OUT E-W
ACROSS THE SRN GREAT LAKES WITH A SFC WAVE LIFTING NE FROM THE CNTRL
PLAINS INTO THE MID MS VLY ON THU AND THEN THRU THE OHIO VLY ON
FRIDAY. WL CONT CHC POPS ON THU IN THE WARM SECTOR WITH THE BEST
POPS ACROSS THE N CLOSER TO THE FNTL BOUNDARY. WL BUMP UP POPS TO
HIGH CHC FRIDAY WITH THE PASSAGE OF SFC LOW AND ASSOCIATED COLD
FRONT. ACTIVE WX PATTERN TO CONT WITH THE FNTL BOUNDARY LIFTING BACK
N AS A WARM FRONT ON SATURDAY AFTN.

TEMP WISE...HAVE GENERALLY STAYED AT OR BELOW MEX NUMBERS FOR HIGHS
AND CLOSE TO GUID FOR LOWS.

&&

.AVIATION /08Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A WARM FRONT WILL REMAIN NORTH OF THE REGION TONIGHT AS COLD FRONT
APPROACHES FROM THE WEST AND PUSHES THROUGH THE AREA DURING THE
AFTERNOON HOURS. AIR OVER THE FA RELATIVELY DRY WITH WINDS GUSTING
BTWN 25 AND 30 KT OUT OF THE S. THUS VFR CONDS EXPCTD THRU THE
NIGHT TIME HOURS. HI LEVEL CLOUDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE
PRECIPITATION NEAR THE COLD FRONT ALREADY SPREADING OVER THE FA.
AS MOISTURE CONTINUES TO ADVECT IN FROM THE S LOW CLOUDS WILL
DEVELOP AND EVENTUALLY THICKEN BY MORNING BECOMING MVFR AROUND
SUNRISE.

MONDAY MORNING WILL SEE A DECAYING AREA OF SHOWERS WITH A PSBL
ISOLD TSTM MOVING INTO THE FA. HAVE HANDLED THIS IN THE FORECAST
WITH MVFR CEILINGS AND VCSH. IF THE AIR STAYS TOO DRY THESE MVFR
CEILINGS MAY BE A LITTLE OVER DONE. AS COLD FRONT BEGINS TO PUSH
THRU THE AREA THIS AFTERNOON EXPECTING NUMEROUS SHOWERS AND ISOLD
TSTMS. USE CB IN FORECAST TO SHOW EXPECTED TIMING OF THUNDER. SOME
OF THESE TSTMS COULD CONTAIN GUSTS UP TO 50 KT. WINDS WILL BE
SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST GUSTING 30 TO 35 AND PSBL HIGHER AHEAD OF THE
FRONT.

BEHIND THE FRONT THUNDER MAY CONTINUE FOR UP TO 2 HOURS AND THEN
GIVE WAY TO NUMEROUS SHOWERS. CEILINGS ARE EXPECTED TO LOWER TO
IFR AT THAT TIME. WIND WILL BE FROM THE WEST AND NORTHWEST GUSTING
TO 30KT BEFORE SETTLING BACK TO A MORE SUSTAIN WIND AROUND
15KT BY 06Z.

OUTLOOK...MVFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES POSSIBLE IN TSTMS ON
