Special Weather Statement, NWS Wilmington, OH

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
521 PM EDT THU JUL 26 2012

.SYNOPSIS...
A COLD FRONT WILL CROSS SOUTHEAST THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY THIS
EVENING. A TRAILING LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL CROSS OUR AREA ON
FRIDAY...BRINGING ADDITIONAL SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TO THE
REGION. BEHIND THIS LOW...HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BRING MORE
SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES AND DRIER CONDITIONS FOR THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL MIDNIGHT TONIGHT/...
HAVE DROPPED THE HEAT HEADLINES FROM THE FORECAST THIS AFTERNOON.
EVEN WITH THE FEW SPOTS SUCH AS LEWIS AND SCIOTO COUNTIES THAT
HAVE NOT GOTTEN THE RAIN YET...READINGS WILL NOT REACH AS HIGH AS
PREVIOUSLY FORECAST WITH INCOMING RAIN EXPECTED.

WHILE THE SEVERE THREAT IS DIMINISHED SIGNIFICANTLY BEHIND THIS
INITIAL LINE OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS...CANNOT IN GOOD FAITH REMOVE
THE WATCH BEHIND THE LINE OF CONVECTION. ATMOSPHERE HAS A CHANCE
TO RECHARGE AND WHILE WINDS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE AS
STRONG...LARGE HAIL REMAINS A POSSIBILITY WITH STORMS THAT EXHIBIT
STRONG VERTICAL EXTENT. WILL RE-EVALUATE THIS IN ANOTHER HOUR OR
SO TO SEE IF IT IS REASONABLE TO TONE DOWN THE SEVERE WORDING FOR
THIS EVENING.

&&

.SHORT TERM /MIDNIGHT TONIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
DID NOT MAKE SWEEPING CHANGES TO THE TEMPERATURE FORECAST FOR THE
NEXT 3 PERIODS BUT DID LOWER HIGHS A BIT IN THE NORTHWEST ON
FRIDAY.

LOWERED POPS TONIGHT BY A BUNCH IN THE 6-12Z TIME FRAME AND EXPECT
THINGS TO RAMP UP QUICKLY TOMORROW MORNING AS THE PROXIMITY OF THE
LOW INTERACTS WITH A RECEPTIVE ATMOSPHERE WITH THE INTRODUCTION OF
DAYTIME HEATING. FEEL THAT THE 3-6Z TIME FRAME THIS EVENING IS A
LITTLE OVERDONE WITH THE CONTINUED HIGHER CHANCES OF RAIN BUT WILL
WAIT UNTIL THE FIRST ROUND OF SEVERE WEATHER CROSSES BEFORE I AM
COMFORTABLE ENOUGH TO SOUND THE ALL CLEAR...PARTICULARLY IN THE
NORTHWEST.

DECREASED THE CHANCE FOR RAIN SIGNIFICANTLY TOMORROW NIGHT ACROSS
THE BOARD AS DRIER AIR WILL FILTER IN BEHIND THE LOW.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
FOR SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY...MODELS AND ENSEMBLES AT LEAST AGREE
ON THE UPPER LEVEL PATTERN...WITH REGION SITUATED ON EASTERN SIDE
OF PLAINS/ROCKIES RIDGE. FOR SATURDAY...THE COLD FRONT WILL BE TO
OUR EAST...WITH A SFC LOW EXITING NEW ENGLAND. SOME OF THE MODELS
ARE INDICATING A SECONDARY SFC REFLECTION DEVELOPING AS A
SHORTWAVE TROUGH DIVES THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES. COMBINED WITH WEAK
INSTBY...THIS COULD SPARK A FEW SHOWERS/STORMS OVER THE UPPER OHIO
VALLEY. SO HAVE MAINTAINED THE 20 POPS OVER OUR EASTERN TIER OR
TWO OF COUNTIES DURING THE AFTERNOON. OTHERWISE SFC HIGH PRESSURE
WILL BE BUILDING IN FROM THE WEST WITH COOLER AND DRIER AIR
ADVECTING INTO THE CWA. SUNDAY HAS THE HIGHEST FORECAST CONFIDENCE
AS SFC HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS DIRECTLY OVER THE CWA. TEMPERATURES
WILL BE NEAR OR SLIGHTLY BELOW SEASONABLE VALUES WITH FAIRLY LOW
HUMIDITY.

THE GFS TAKES A MORE SLIGHTLY MORE AMPLIFIED TURN BEGINNING
MONDAY...WITH PROJECTIONS OF A DEEPENING EAST COAST LONGWAVE TROUGH.
HOWEVER MODELS REMAIN IN CLOSE ENOUGH AGREEMENT TO TAKE AN ENSEMBLE
APPROACH WITH THE FORECAST. THERE IS CONTINUED AGREEMENT THAT
TUESDAY WILL HAVE THE HIGHEST PCPN CHANCES...AS A SFC BOUNDARY/UPPER
WAVE SAGS DOWN INTO THE AREA. SOME ACTIVITY MAY REACH THE NORTHWEST
BY MONDAY AFTERNOON...AND LINGER INTO WEDNESDAY DEPENDING ON THE
TIMING OF THE DISTURBANCES IN THE NORTHWEST FLOW. AT THIS
TIME...WEAK HIGH PRESSURE IS ANTICIPATED FOR THURSDAY. TEMPERATURES
WILL RISE SLIGHTLY BEGINNING MONDAY...BUT SHOULD NOT VARY
SIGNIFICANTLY FROM AVERAGE THROUGH THE WEEK WITH THE HEAT DOME
REMAINING WELL TO OUR WEST.

&&

.AVIATION /21Z THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
UNDER A SOUTHWEST TO WEST FLOW ALOFT...A COLD FRONT WILL SAG
SOUTHEAST INTO THE NRN REACHES OF THE FORECAST AREA OVERNIGHT WHERE
IT WILL LIKELY STALL OUT. OTHERWISE...SHOWER AND THUNDERSTORM
PROBABILITIES WILL BE HIGH THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING AS
CLUSTERS/LINES OF THUNDERSTORMS MOVE E/SE ACRS THE REGION. THE
MAIN THREAT WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS. MODE OF THUNDERSTORMS ARE
STILL UNCLEAR AT THIS POINT...SO HAVE NOT TRIED TO PINPOINT WIND
STRENGTH AT THE TAFS...KNOWING THAT AMENDMENTS WILL HAVE TO BE
EMPLOYED IF AND WHEN IT BECOMES NECESSARY. LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN WITH
IFR VSBYS AND MVFR CIGS WILL LIKELY OCCUR.

FOR THE OVERNIGHT PERIOD...MODELS SUGGEST THAT DEEPER MOISTURE AND
FORCING WILL SHIFT E/SE OF THE TAF SITES...LEAVING MAINLY A DRY
PERIOD OVERNIGHT. WILL GO WITH VFR CONDITIONS DURING THIS PERIOD.

ON FRIDAY...A DISTURBANCE WILL DIG SE TOWARD THE GREAT LAKES
REGION. THIS WILL PERTURB A WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE ALONG STALLED
OUT FRONTAL BOUNDARY. MOISTURE AND INSTABILITY ASSOCIATED WITH THE
LOW AND DISTURBANCE WILL RESULT IN CONVECTION DURING THE AFTN AND
EVENING HOURS ONCE AGAIN.

OUTLOOK...THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT.
