AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
355 PM EDT SAT AUG 11 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE JUST NORTH OF LAKE ERIE WILL MOVE TO NORTH OF LAKE
ONTARIO SUNDAY MORNING. THIS WILL ALLOW HIGH PRESSURE TO MOVE INTO
OHIO BY SUNDAY EVENING. THE HIGH WILL SLIDE EASTWARD ON MONDAY AS
THE NEXT AREA OF LOW PRESSURE MOVES ACROSS THE MIDWEST. THIS LOW
WILL AGAIN MOVE ACROSS SOUTHERN ONTARIO WITH A COLD FRONT SWEEPING
ACROSS THE REGION ON TUESDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SUNDAY MORNING/...
LOW PRESSURE JUST NORTH OF LAKE ERIE WILL MOVE VERY SLOWLY TO THE
NORTHEAST THROUGH THE NIGHT. THIS WILL KEEP CYCLONIC FLOW ACROSS
THE REGION WITH A GENERAL WEAK LIFT. THIS SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO KEEP
CLOUD COVER IN PLACE. MOST OF THE SHOWERS WILL BE ASSOCIATED WITH
AN UPPER LEVEL TROUGH THAT SHOULD SWING ACROSS MOST OF REGION
THIS EVENING. THERE WILL LIKELY BE AREAS OF DRIZZLE WITH A FEW
HEAVIER SHOWERS POSSIBLE. CANT COMPLETELY RULE OUT A FEW RUMBLES OF
THUNDER...ESPECIALLY CLOSER TO THE LAKESHORE WHERE SLIGHTLY HIGHER
CAPE RESIDES. WILL STILL NEED TO MONITOR THE BAND OF RAINFALL THAT
REESTABLISHES ITSELF IN THE WAKE OF THE UPPER LEVEL TROUGH.
BELIEVE IT WILL BE BE ORIENTED SO THAT IT COULD CLIP ASHTABULA
COUNTY INTO NW PA. HAVE GONE WITH THE HIGHEST RAIN CHANCES IN THIS
REGION...GENERALLY CLOSER TO THE LAKESHORE.

CLOUD COVER TONIGHT WILL GRADUALLY THIN ACROSS THE WEST BUT SHOULD
PERSIST THROUGH THE NIGHT ACROSS THE EAST. LOCATIONS THAT SEE AN
EXTENDED PERIOD OF CLEARING MAY HAVE SOME PATCHY DENSE FOG. DID
NOT PLACE THIS IN THE GRIDS YET BUT SOMETHING FOR LATER SHIFTS TO
CONSIDER.

ANOTHER NIGHT WITH LOWS IN THE 50S ARE EXPECTED FOR INLAND
LOCATIONS. MAY EVEN BE A COUPLE DEGREES WARMER ACROSS THE WESTERN
AREAS THAT SEE SOME CLEARING. WARMER NEAR THE LAKE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SUNDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
LOW PRESSURE SHOULD MOVE EAST FAR ENOUGH ON SUNDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE
BUILDS IN AT THE SURFACE TO END THE LAKE SHOWERS FOR MOST
LOCATIONS. HOWEVER BELIEVE THAT THE SHOWERS WILL PERSIST ACROSS NW
PA INTO THE AFTERNOON. SKIES SHOULD BECOME MOSTLY CLEAR TO PARTLY
CLOUDY BY SUNDAY NIGHT WITH LOWS INLAND FROM THE LAKE ONCE AGAIN
INTO THE 50S.

AS HIGH PRESSURE SLIDES EASTWARD IT WILL ALLOW LOW PRESSURE TO
MOVE TO NEAR LAKE MICHIGAN BY MID AFTERNOON. THIS WILL ALLOW FOR A
MODEST RETURN OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE AND AN INCREASE IN SHOWER AND
THUNDERSTORM CHANCES LATE MONDAY ACROSS THE WEST. THESE SHOWERS
AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL SLOWLY SPREAD EASTWARD MONDAY NIGHT WITH A
COLD FRONT EXPECTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE REGION ON MONDAY. SO AFTER
A DAMP MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY WE SHOULD SEE DRIER CONDITIONS BY
TUESDAY NIGHT. HOWEVER ONCE AGAIN THERE COULD BE SOME LINGERING
SHOWERS DOWNWIND OF THE LAKE ACROSS EXTREME NE OHIO INTO NW PA.

TEMPERATURES WILL RECOVER FOR MOST LOCATIONS ON SUNDAY WITH HIGHS
INTO THE 70S...MAYBE APPROACHING 80 ACROSS THE WEST. A PERIOD OF
SUNSHINE MONDAY MORNING SHOULD GET MOST LOCATIONS AROUND 80
DEGREES FOR HIGHS. COOLER WITH THE CLOUD COVER AND SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS
ON TUESDAY WITH HIGHS BACK INTO THE 70S.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
LATEST GFS AND ECMWF CONTINUING TO SHOWING TIMING DIFFERENCES DURING
THE PERIOD BEGINNING WEDNESDAY WITH THE GFS A BIT SLOWER IN MOVING
LOW EAST OF THE AREA. LINGERED SOME LOW CHC POPS ACROSS THE FAR
EAST...ESPECIALLY NW PA DURING THE DAY. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FOR
THURSDAY...THEN THE NEXT SYSTEM COMES IN FOR THE END OF THE WEEK.
GFS SHOWING MORE OF A COLD FRONTAL PASSAGE SET UP WITH LOW LOCATED
IN CANADA WHILE ECMWF SHOWS A SHARPER UPPER TROUGH MOVING INTO THE
PLAINS AND DEVELOPING SURFACE LOW OVER THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY AND
MOVING NORTHEAST INTO OH. FOR NOW EITHER WAY THERE LOOKS TO BE GOOD
REASONING TO HAVE AT LEAST CHC POPS IN THE FCST DURING THURS
NIGHT-FRI NIGHT TIME PERIOD BUT STILL SOME SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES
STILL EXIST AS TO HOW WE END UP GETTING THE PRECIP. GIVEN PATTERN
DIFFERENCES AT THIS TIME MADE SOME MINOR ADJUSTMENTS BASED ON MEX
NUMBERS BUT DIDN/T DEVIATE MUCH FROM PREVIOUS FORECAST TEMPS.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
MVFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE AFTERNOON
AND THEN SOME IMPROVEMENT EXPECTED WITH CIGS ACROSS WESTERN SITES
TONIGHT AS LOW PRESSURE OVER THE AREA BEGINS TO MOVE TO THE
NORTHEAST AWAY FROM THE AREA. THERE IS SOME CONCERN WITH EASTERN
SITES TONIGHT AS MVFR CONDITIONS MAY PERSIST AS A TROUGH ROTATES
ACROSS THE AREA. THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY OF EVEN IFR CONDITIONS
DEVELOPING BUT DIDN/T MENTION THAT WIDESPREAD ACROSS SITES. SLOW
IMPROVEMENT TO VFR EXPECTED AFTER 14Z SUN FROM WEST TO EAST.

.OUTLOOK...NON VFR POSSIBLE MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY IN
SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS.

&&

.MARINE...
UPPER TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE CONTINUES TO PROVIDE STRONGER WINDS AND
HIGHER WAVES ACROSS THE LAKE THIS AFTERNOON. THIS WILL CONTINUE
THROUGH THE EVENING BUT THEN BEGIN DIMINISHING OVERNIGHT FROM WEST
TO EAST AS LOW PRESSURE MOVES OFF TO THE NORTHEAST. EXTENDED SMALL
CRAFT ADVISORY FOR THE WEST END OF THE LAKE TO EARLY TONIGHT WITH
THE EAST CONTINUING INTO SUNDAY. THERE WILL BE THE CHC FOR
WATERSPOUTS ACROSS THE LAKE THROUGH MUCH OF TONIGHT.

HIGH PRESSURE BRIEFLY BUILDS OVER THE LAKE MONDAY BUT THEN THE NEXT
LOW PRESSURE MOVES OVER THE LAKE TUESDAY. AS THE LOW MOVES OFF TO
THE EAST TUESDAY NIGHT NORTHERLY WINDS ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE LOW
MAY BE THE NEXT CHC FOR SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS...WHICH MAY CONTINUE
INTO WEDNESDAY ALSO. A BRIEF BREAK IN CONDITIONS IN EXPECTED
THURSDAY AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE LAKE.

&&

OH...NONE.
PA...NONE.
MARINE...SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY UNTIL 4 PM EDT SUNDAY FOR LEZ146>149.
     SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY UNTIL 10 PM EDT THIS EVENING FOR
