Area forecast discussion, Jul 27, 8:18 PM EDT, 2 hours 34 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH 818 PM EDT FRI JUL 27 2012 .SYNOPSIS... A WEAK LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM AND ITS ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT WILL PUSH EAST ACROSS THE REGION TONIGHT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL GRADUALLY BUILD IN FROM THE NORTHWEST THROUGH THE WEEKEND. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/... THUNDERSTORMS HAVE BEEN GRADUALLY WEAKENING AND EXPECT THIS OVERALL TREND TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE REST OF THE EVENING AS WE LOSE SOME OF THE INSTABILITY. HAVE CLEARED THE WATCH ACROSS WESTERN AREAS AND WILL PROBABLY BE ABLE TO CLEAR MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE REST OF IT AHEAD TIME. AS THE COLD FRONT SAGS SOUTH...PCPN COULD LINGER ACROSS OUR FAR SOUTHEAST INTO THE EARLY MORNING HOURS SO WILL CONTINUE WITH THE FFA THERE. ONE OTHER CONCERN IS THE POSSIBLE CLEARING THAT COULD WORK AT LEAST INTO OUR NORTHWEST THROUGH LATE EVENING. IF WE CLEAR OUT FAST ENOUGH...WE COULD EVENTUALLY SEE SOME STRATUS OR FOG DEVELOPMENT LATER TONIGHT. WILL INDICATE SOME PARTIAL CLEARING THROUGH EARLY MORNING...BUT THEN HEDGE AND BRING IN SOME PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES LATER TONIGHT. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BEGIN TO BUILD IN FROM THE NORTHWEST SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. HOWEVER...UNTIL THE MID LEVEL TROUGH AXIS CLEARS THE AREA THROUGH THE AFTERNOON...IT WILL BE TOUGH TO RULE OUT A STRAY THUNDERSTORM OR TWO. THE BEST CHANCE FOR THIS WILL BE ACROSS OUR NORTHEAST WHERE SOME WEAK INSTABILITIES WILL LINGER INTO THE AFTERNOON HOURS. SKIES SHOULD THEN CLEAR THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS AS HIGH PRESSURE CONTINUES TO BUILD IN. WILL TREND HIGHS A TAD COOLER ACROSS THE NORTH ON SATURDAY AS WE SHOULD START TO GET INTO A LITTLE BIT OF WEAK CAA. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... SUNDAY WILL FEATURE SFC HIGH PRESSURE OVERHEAD WITH WNW FLOW ALOFT. LOW LEVEL FLOW BEGINS TO TURN BACK AROUND TO THE SOUTHWEST...SO SOME 90 DEGREE READINGS MAY SNEAK TOWARD THE SOUTHWEST...BUT HUMIDITY WILL BE ON THE LOW SIDE. 00Z ECMWF WAS THE ONLY MODEL SHOWING A SHORTWAVE TROUGH DIVING INTO THE AREA SUNDAY NIGHT...SO HAVE EXCLUDED ITS QPF IN THE FORECAST. A GRADUAL PATTERN CHANGE TAKES PLACE NEXT WEEK AS TELECONNECTIONS FROM THE NORTHERN LATITUDES HELP GRADUALLY DEEPEN THE EAST COAST TROUGH AND PUSH THE DOMINANT PLAINS RIDGE BACK TOWARD THE WEST. A SERIES OF DISTURBANCES IN NORTHWEST FLOW ALOFT SHOULD PROVIDE INTERMITTENT CHANCES OF THUNDERSTORMS. TRACK AND TIMING IS OBVIOUSLY AN ISSUE IN THIS TYPE OF PATTERN...BUT MODELS CONTINUE TO HONE INTO THE LATE MONDAY TO LATE TUESDAY TIME FRAME FOR A SFC COLD FRONT TO PUSH THROUGH THE AREA. HAVE 40 POPS SPREADING EAST THROUGH THIS TIME...THEN DROPPING SLIGHTLY FOR THE WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY PERIOD. WITH LITTLE TEMPERATURE ADVECTION DURING MOST OF THE WEEK... TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN NEAR OR SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL...WITH SOME INCREASE IN HUMIDITY. BY FRIDAY...BOTH THE 00Z AND 12Z ECMWF FLATTEN THE UPPER LEVEL FLOW PATTERN SOMEWHAT...ALLOWING WARMER TEMPERATURES TO SURGE EAST. HAVE LEANED TOWARD THIS SOLUTION...VERSUS THE STRONGER LONGWAVE TROUGH NOTED BY THE GFS. LOWERED POPS TO 20 PERCENT FRIDAY GIVEN UNCERTAINTY. && .AVIATION /00Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... AN UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE OVER THE WESTERN GREAT LAKES THIS EVENING WILL PIVOT E/SE ACRS THE REMAINDER OF THE GREAT LAKES THROUGH SATURDAY MORNING...THEN EASTWARD TOWARD NEW ENGLAND BY SATURDAY EVENING. CONVECTION SHOULD CONTINUE IN A SCATTERED NATURE NEAR THE TAF SITES THROUGH ABOUT 05Z WHERE IT SHOULD GRADUALLY COME TO AN END. A COLD FRONT AND WEAK SURFACE LOW WILL CONTINUE TO SAG E/SE THROUGH THE REGION OVERNIGHT. LOOKING UPSTREAM...IT APPEARS SKIES MAY GO MOSTLY CLEAR AT SOME POINT BY EARLY MORNING. GIVEN RECENT RAINFALL AND LIGHT WIND FLOW...THIS WILL LIKELY RESULT IN SOME FOG AT THE TAF SITES. IT IS STILL UNCLEAR AT THIS POINT AS TO HOW LOW VSBYS WILL GET AND STILL HAVE MAINTAINED MVFR/IFR VSBYS. MODELS CONTINUE TO INDICATE THAT AS THE WEAK SURFACE LOW RIPPLES BY...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE MAY WORK SOUTHWARD IN THE WEAK CAA BEHIND THE LOW...AFFECTING THE NORTHERN TAF SITES BETWEEN 09Z AND 12Z. AS SUCH...HAVE BROUGHT/MAINTAINED SOME IFR CIGS AT KDAY...KCMH...AND KLCK. ON SATURDAY...LOW LEVEL MOISTURE/STRATUS SHOULD LIFT INTO VFR CUMULUS AND/OR MODERATE CUMULUS BY SATURDAY AFTERNOON WHILE VSBYS WILL IMPROVE TO VFR AS WELL. CAN NOT RULE OUT A POP UP SHOWER OR STORM ACRS THE ERN TAF SITES...BUT THEN AGAIN...IT IS TOO LOW TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT ATTM. UNDER A NW FLOW ALOFT...SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO BUILD SOUTHEAST INTO THE GREAT LAKES AND OHIO VALLEY SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY. .OUTLOOK...THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE MONDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...FLASH FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 4 AM EDT SATURDAY FOR OHZ079>082-088. KY...FLASH FLOOD WATCH UNTIL 4 AM EDT SATURDAY FOR KYZ098>100.
