Area forecast discussion, Nov 19, 11:40 PM EST, 4 hours 30 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
1140 PM EST WED NOV 19 2014
.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE MOVING ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES WILL DRAG ANOTHER
ARCTIC FRONT ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA TONIGHT. LARGE AREA OF HIGH
PRESSURE WILL MOVE ACROSS THE LOWER LAKES ON FRIDAY AND MOVE OFF THE
MID ATLANTIC COAST SATURDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
COLD FRONT IS NOW EAST OF A CLEVELAND MANSFIELD LINE. COLDER AIR
TO FOLLOW THE FRONT. TEMPERATURES DIPPED INTO THE UPPER 20S IN THE
WESTERN THIRD OF THE FORECAST AREA. LIGHT SNOW REMAINS JUST AHEAD
OF THE COLD FRONT. CANT RULE OUT A FEW FLAKES IN THE WEST AND SOME
LIGHT SNOW IN THE EAST REMAINING. FLOW IS BECOMING WELL ALIGNED UP
THE LAKE ON THE WEST END AND THIS SHOULD SEND A BAND OF SNOW UP
THE LAKE OVERNIGHT. OTHERWISE...NORTHEAST OHIO WILL STILL SEE THE
THREAT FOR SOME LIGHT SNOW OVERNIGHT. WESTERN AREAS SHOULD ALSO
BEGIN TO DRY OUT IN THE WAKE OF THE COLD FRONT LATE TONIGHT.
TEMPERATURES STILL ON TARGET TOWARD CURRENT OVERNIGHT LOWS.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
WINDS ON LAKE ERIE WILL REMAIN FROM THE SOUTHWEST MOST OF TOMORROW
THEN BEGIN TO SHIFT TO THE WEST TO NORTHWEST THURSDAY AFTERNOON
AHEAD OF APPROACHING UPPER LEVEL TROUGH.
TOMORROW EVENING INTO THE OVERNIGHT WILL HAVE MODERATE INSTABILITY
ON THE LAKE...PLENTY OF MOISTURE...AND AN UPPER LEVEL SHORT WAVE
MOVING ACROSS THE LAKE TO ENHANCE THE LIFT. BANDS WILL GRADUALLY
PUSH ONSHORE TOWARD THE EVENING RUSH HOUR. ERIE COULD POTENTIALLY
PICK UP SEVERAL INCHES OF ACCUMULATIONS WITH LESSER AMOUNTS
EXTENDING WEST TO CLEVELAND. THAT ALL SAID WENT WITH A LAKE EFFECT
SNOW WATCH FOR ASHTABULA AND NW PA FOR NOW...MAY NEED AN ADVISORY
FOR LAKE AND GEAUGA DEPENDING UPON HOW QUICKLY THE 850MB RIDGE
BUILDS IN.
CONDITIONS GRADUALLY SHIFT EAST DURING THE OVERNIGHT BUT
POTENTIAL FOR LOW LEVEL CONVERGENCE SETTING UP ALONG THE SHORELINE
FRIDAY MORNING. LUCKILY BY THEN THE MOISTURE IS BEGINNING TO
DIMINISH. SNOW WILL GRADUALLY END FROM THE WEST DURING THE DAY
FRIDAY AS THE 850MB RIDGE FINALLY BUILDS OVER THE AREA.
&&
.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE LONG TERM BEGINS SUNDAY WITH MODELS IN GOOD AGREEMENT SHOWING AN
INVERTED TROUGH MOVING THROUGH THE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY WITH A SURFACE
LOW OVER MO/AR. DEEP MOISTURE OUT OF THE GLFMX WILL BE STREAMING
NORTH INTO THE OHIO VALLEY AHEAD OF THE SYSTEM WHICH WILL BRING RAIN
TO THE AREA SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY. GIVEN THE SOUTH FLOW...EXPECT
TEMPS NEAR NORMAL (50ISH) BOTH SUNDAY AND MONDAY. WILL HAVE LIKELY
POPS FOR RAIN SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT AND DROP TO CHANCE POPS MONDAY
AND MONDAY NIGHT BEHIND THE ASSOCIATED COLD FRONT. COLDER AIR MOVES
IN TUESDAY WITH A SECONDARY COLD FRONT. WILL HAVE RAIN AND SNOW
MIXED MONDAY NIGHT CHANGING TO ALL SNOW IN THE WEST. TUESDAY
EXPECTING A NON DIURNAL TREND OR AT BEST MINIMAL RISE THROUGH THE
AFTERNOON WITH SNOW SHOWERS. THROUGH THE DAY 850MB TEMPS DROP TO
-12C SO EXPECT LAKE EFFECT TO GET GOING AGAIN. BIG QUESTION IS
WHETHER IT GETS ONSHORE BOTH THE GFS AND ECMWF SUGGEST YES BUT
TIMING IS DIFFERENT. FOR NOW WILL HAVE LIKELY POPS CLOSE TO THE
LAKESHORE TUESDAY AND THEN MOVE FURTHER INLAND TUESDAY NIGHT.
WEDNESDAY WILL HOLD ONTO CHANCE POPS THERE.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
THE LAKE EFFECT IS TRYING TO GET ORGANIZED. IT APPEARS THAT KERI
WILL SEE PERIODS OF SNOW MOST OF THE TAF PERIOD. VSBYS SHOULD BE
MVFR MOST OF THE TIME BUT SOME IFR IS POSSILBE OVERNIGHT AND
THURSDAY MORNING. KCLE SHOULD ALSO SEE SOME SHSN BUT SHOULD
PROBABLY NOT GO BELOW MVFR. SOME POCKETS OF MVFR CIGS PERSIST BUT
MOST OF THE NIGHT SHOULD SEE VFR CIGS. WINDS HAVE DIED DOWN
SLIGHTLY BUT GUSTS IN THE 20 TO 25 KNOT RANGE ARE LIKELY OVERNIGHT
WITH GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 30 KNOTS POSSIBLE DURING THE DAY. THE FLOW
SHOULD BECOME MORE WESTERLY LATE IN THE PERIOD AND THIS WILL SHIFT
THE SNOW BACK ACROSS THE EASTERN END OF THE AREA. AT THE SAME TIME
DRIER AIR WILL MOVES INTO THE WEST ALLOWING AT LEAST PARTIAL
CLEARING THURSDAY EVENING.
.OUTLOOK...NON VFR CONDITIONS IN LAKE EFFECT SNOW WILL PERSIST
THURSDAY NIGHT THRU FRIDAY OVER EXTREME NE OH/NW PA. AREAS OF NON
VFR SHOULD RETURN SAT NIGHT AND CONTINUE SUN IN RAIN SHOWERS.
&&
.MARINE...
WILL CONTINUE WITH THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY AS IT IS. WATER LEVELS
ON THE WESTERN BASIN ARE CURRENTLY WELL ABOVE THE CRITICAL LEVEL
HOWEVER LATER TONIGHT THEY MAY DROP TO OR BELOW THE CRITICAL LEVEL.
WILL MENTION IN THE MWW BUT NO HEADLINE AT THIS TIME. SOUTH WINDS
WILL TURN SOUTHWEST TO 30 KNOTS TONIGHT BEHIND A COLD FRONT. THE
WINDS WILL VEER TO WEST ON THURSDAY NIGHT THEN BEGIN TO DROP OFF.
SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL DOMINATE THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT. ON
SUNDAY LOW PRESSURE WILL MOVE FROM ARKANSAS TO THE WESTERN LAKES ON
MONDAY. WINDS WILL TURN SOUTHEAST SUNDAY AND THEN INCREASE TO 15 TO
25 KNOTS SUNDAY NIGHT BEFORE TURNING SOUTHWEST ON MONDAY.
