AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
737 PM EDT WED SEP 26 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A SLOW MOVING FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL GRADUALLY MOVE THROUGH THE
OHIO VALLEY THIS WEEK. SOUTH OF THE FRONT...SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE TO IMPACT THE REGION. HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BUILD IN ON SATURDAY...BUT AN UPPER LEVEL LOW PRESSURE
CENTER WILL PROVIDE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS ON SUNDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
SOUTH OF A SLOWLY-MOVING COLD FRONT...THE CWA REMAINS ENTRENCHED
IN AN AREA OF DEEP MOISTURE AND MODERATE WEST-SOUTHWESTERLY FLOW
IN THE LOWER TO MID LEVELS. THE PRIMARY FORECAST FOCUS IS ON
CONVECTIVE CHANCES AND TIMING TONIGHT.

CONVECTION ONGOING ACROSS THE CWA APPEARS TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH A
WEAK VORTICITY CENTER OVER INDIANA...WITH THE NEW DEVELOPMENT
FIRING UP ON A BAND WELL OUT AHEAD OF IT. MEANWHILE...THE WSW-ENE
ORIENTED BAND OF SHOWERS (WITH EMBEDDED THUNDER) THROUGH CENTRAL
OHIO IS JUST AHEAD OF THE BOUNDARY. INSTABILITY HAS BUILT TO ABOUT 1000
J/KG IN NORTHERN KENTUCKY...AND IS GREATER FURTHER TO THE
SOUTHWEST. RUC13 INSTABILITY FORECASTS OF 2000-2500 J/KG ARE MUCH
TOO HIGH...GIVEN THE ERRONEOUS ADVECTION OF DEWPOINTS OVER 70
DEGREES INTO SW OHIO.

POPS ARE CATEGORICAL FOR THE FIRST FEW HOURS OF THE FORECAST...AS
THE CURRENT ACTIVITY WORKS ITS WAY THROUGH THE CWA. AFTER
THAT...MUCH OF THE CWA MAY SEE A BREAK FROM CONVECTIVE
POTENTIAL...IN THE WAKE OF THE AFTERNOON SYSTEM. WHERE INSTABILITY
IS GREATER IN THE SOUTH...ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT IS POSSIBLE.
GIVEN THE 40 KNOTS OF 0-3 KM SHEAR (WHICH IS ACTUALLY STRONGER
THAN THE 0-6 KM SHEAR)...SOME STORM ORGANIZATION AND A FEW STRONG
CELLS WILL BE POSSIBLE. WITHOUT A KEY TRIGGER OR MUCH
INSTABILITY...WIDESPREAD SEVERE WEATHER DOES NOT APPEAR POSSIBLE.

POPS WILL BE KEPT IN THE LIKELY CATEGORY FOR THE SOUTHEASTERN TWO
THIRDS OF THE CWA GOING INTO TONIGHT. HOWEVER...GIVEN THE LACK OF
PRECIPITATION BEHIND THE CURRENT INDIANA/OHIO SYSTEM...IT APPEARS
THAT THE ACTIVITY WILL BE SHOWERY AND NOT ALL OF IT WILL BE
CONVECTIVE. DEVELOPING STORMS IN SOUTHERN ILLINOIS MAY BE WHAT
ENDS UP PROVIDING A GREATER CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION LATER ON
TONIGHT.

THE HOLES IN THE CLOUD COVER ALLOWED THE SOUTHERN CWA TO APPROACH
80 DEGREES TODAY. GIVEN THE WARMER STARTING POINT...AND EXPECTED
MOIST AND CLOUDY ATMOSPHERE TONIGHT...MIN TEMPS IN THE SOUTH WERE
BUMPED UP A FEW DEGREES FROM THE PREVIOUS FORECAST. WITH THE FRONT
MOVING INTO THE AREA...AND COLD ADVECTION BEGINNING IN THE
NORTH...THE TEMPERATURE GRADIENT OVERNIGHT WILL BE SOMEWHAT TIGHT.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY WILL CONTINUE TO MAKE VERY SLOW PROGRESS TO
THE EAST ON THURSDAY...BUT ENOUGH PROGRESS TO BRING AN END TO ANY
SIGNIFICANT CHANCES OF PRECIPITATION. THE FRONT WILL ORIENT ITSELF
EAST-TO-WEST ACROSS KENTUCKY...AND STALL OUT THROUGH FRIDAY. THIS
MEANS THAT THE MOISTURE AND FORCING ASSOCIATED WITH THE FRONT WILL
BE VERY CLOSE TO THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF THE FORECAST AREA. THIS
WILL REQUIRE A CHANCE OF SHOWERS (WITH A POSSIBILITY OF
THUNDERSTORMS) IN THE SOUTHERN HALF OF THE CWA FOR THURSDAY...AND
THEN JUST THE SOUTHERN THIRD OF THE CWA ON FRIDAY. AS THE VARIOUS
MODELS (AND THEIR VARIOUS RUNS) CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE WITH TIMING
THE EMBEDDED DISTURBANCES IN THE QUICK LOWER-TO-MID-LEVEL
FLOW...IT REMAINS DIFFICULT TO PIN DOWN THE TIME OR PLACEMENT OF
ANY NORTHWARD-IMPINGING CONVECTIVE SYSTEMS THAT MAY IMPACT THE CWA
DURING THIS TIME FRAME.

MAX TEMPERATURES WERE ADJUSTED SLIGHTLY DOWN THROUGH THE END OF
THE WEEK...AS THE COLD ADVECTION BEHIND THE FRONT WILL KEEP TEMPS
FROM REACHING 70. THE TEMPERATURE GRADIENT WILL BE TIGHTER ON
THURSDAY...WITH THE FRONT STILL IN THE AREA. GUIDANCE AND MODEL
NUMBERS EXHIBITED LITTLE SPREAD...INCREASING CONFIDENCE IN THE
FORECAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
MODELS ARE IN CLOSE AGREEMENT THROUGH THE PERIOD. SAT AND SUN
FOCUSED ON TROUGH ACROSS THE AREA WITH DISTURBANCE ROTATING THRU.
TIMING OF THIS DISTURBANCE IS MAIN PROBLEM WITH GFS MORE SAT NIGHT
AND ECMWF MORE SUN. HAVE OPTED FOR SMALL POP ACROSS THE NORTH FOR
BOTH SCENARIOS FOR NOW. LATER FCST CAN PERHAPS HAVE BETTER HANDLE ON
TIMING. MON-WED WILL SEE RIDGING WITH WARMING THRU PERIOD.
SEASONABLY COOL MORNINGS WITH SEASONAL OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL
DAYTIME HIGHS.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
CONVECTION THAT IS OCCURRING OVER THE OHIO VALLEY IS OCCURRING IN
THE WARM SECTOR AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT THAT WILL DROP SOUTH INTO
KENTUCKY LATER THIS EVENING. SHOWERS WILL BE FOUND IN ANY TAF SITE
FOR THE EARLY PART OF THE NIGHT...WITH SOME THUNDER POSSIBLE
TOWARDS KCVG WHERE THE NOSE OF THE MOST UNSTABLE AIR CLIPS THIS
STATION. BEST INSTABILITY WILL BE FOCUSED OUT OF THE TAF SITES IN
QUESTION...GENERALLY FROM LOUISVILLE SOUTHWESTWARD. MVFR CIGS AND
VSBYS IN SHOWERS WILL OCCASIONALLY BE FOUND BUT MOST STATIONS ARE
REMAINING VFR...EVEN IN THE LIGHTER RAIN THAT MAY HIT THEM.

FRONT WILL DROP SOUTH AND WINDS WILL TURN NORTHEAST BEFORE
MIDNIGHT FOR THE NORTHERN TAF SITES...BY DAYBREAK FOR METRO CINCY.

STILL SOME UNCERTAINTY AS TO WHERE THE BKN-OVC CU DECK WILL FORM
IN THE COLDER POST-FRONTAL AIR...GENERALLY EXPECTED THE SUN TO HIT
THE MOISTENED AIR IN PLACE AND CREATE A BKN DECK 2-3KFT
TOMORROW...WITH DRYING AND MIXING OCCURRING IN THE
AFTERNOON...ESPECIALLY FOR THE NORTH WHERE SKIES MAY ACTUALLY GO
CLEAR BEFORE 0Z.

.OUTLOOK...MVFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE SUNDAY.
