AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
744 PM EDT TUE JUN 17 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
A FRONTAL BOUNDARY NEAR LAKE ERIE WILL WAVER BACK AND FORTH ACROSS
THE FORECAST AREA THROUGH THE WEEKEND BEFORE THE FRONT FINALLY MOVES
OFF TO THE SOUTHEAST BY MONDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
THE CONVECTION THRU THIS EVENING SHOULD SETTLE DOWN ONCE THE SUN
SETS AND THE AIRMASS COOLS SOME AND STABILIZES.

THE NEXT WAVE OF LOW PRESSURE RIDES ALONG THE FRONT NORTH OF THE
AREA TONIGHT HELPING TO START PUSHING THE FRONT SOUTH TOWARD LAKE
ERIE. THE AIRMASS WILL REMAIN QUITE UNSTABLE OVERNIGHT. CONVECTION
ALONG THE FRONT AIDED BY WEAK UPPER ENERGY WILL SAG SOUTH AND SHOULD
START TO AFFECT AT LEAST THE NORTHERN PART OF THE AREA. SOME OF THE
STORMS COULD BE SEVERE WITH DAMAGING WINDS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
THE MODELS DIFFER ON WHETHER THERE WILL BE A LULL IN CONVECTION
DURING WED MORNING INTO EARLY AFTERNOON AFTER THE EARLY WAVE OF
ENERGY MOVES OFF TO THE EAST. WILL SHOW SOME DECREASE IN POPS FOR A
WHILE THEN RAMP THE POPS BACK UP AS DAYTIME HEATING CAUSES THE
AIRMASS TO BECOME EVEN MORE UNSTABLE.

WITH THE COLD FRONT SLOWLY SAGGING WELL DOWN THRU THE CWA BEFORE
STALLING BY THU EVE WILL KEEP THE POPS AT LEAST IN THE HIGH CHANCE
CATEGORY UNTIL SOME DRIER AIR STARTS TO PUNCH INTO THE NE BY LATE
THU. GOOD INSTABILITY AND SOME SHEAR SHOULD CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE
POSSIBILITY OF SOME SEVERE STORMS.

THE UPPER ENERGY GETS STRETCHED OVER THE AREA THU NIGHT INTO EARLY
FRI LESSENING THE OVERALL CHANCE FOR TSRA. THE DRIER AIR IN THE NE
SHOULD KEEP THE THREAT FOR TSRA IN MAINLY THE SW HALF OF THE AREA.
WEAK UPPER RIDGING FLATTENS LATER FRI AND FRI NIGHT WHILE THE FRONT
LIFTS BACK NE. WILL SHIFT THE CHANCE FOR PRECIP BACK NE WITH THE
SHIFTING FOCUS.

WELL ABOVE NORMAL TEMPS WED WILL MODERATE BACK CLOSE TO NORMAL FOR
THU THRU FRI AS THE FRONT AND CLOUDS SETTLE BACK OVER THE AREA.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THE RIDGE ALOFT IS PROGGED TO FLATTEN AND BECOME NORTHWEST BY THE
WEEKEND. THE UPPER LOW FROM THE ROCKIES IS PROGGED TO SLOWLY DROP
INTO THE DEVELOPING TROUGH ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES EARLY NEXT WEEK.
THE MODELS HAVE BEEN INCONSISTENT ON THE MOVEMENT AND STRENGTH OF
THE APPROACHING UPPER LOW.

A WEAKENING COLD FRONT MAY FINALLY FLUSH OUT THE STATIONARY BOUNDARY
ON SATURDAY. THERE IS SOME INDICATION THAT THE FRONT MAY GET THROUGH
EARLY IN THE DAY. NOT ENOUGH CONFIDENCE IN THE TIMING YET TO PROMISE
A DRY DAY.

A SERIES OF WEAK COLD FRONTS OR TROUGHS ARE LIKELY EARLY NEXT WEEK
AS THE FLOW ALOFT BECOMES NORTHWEST AND THE TROUGH DEEPENS. IT MAY
TAKE UNTIL TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY NEXT WEEK FOR THE SURFACE HIGH TO
BUILD DOWN AND PUSH A DRIER AND STABLE AIR MASS AT WHICH POINT WE
COULD FINALLY TAKE THE CHANCE OF SHOWERS/STORMS OUT OF THE FORECAST.
THE CONVECTION WILL LIKELY BECOME MORE DIURNAL...MAINLY AFTERNOON
AND EVENING.

TEMPERATURES GO FROM A FEW DEGREES ABOVE NORMAL ON SATURDAY TO NEAR
NORMAL EARLY NEXT WEEK. DEWPOINTS SHOULD DROP BACK TO NEAR NORMAL
SO NOT AS HUMID.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
BEST CHANCE FOR CONVECTION IS FAR NORTHEAST OHIO AND NWRN PA THIS
EVENING. OTHERWISE VFR...ALTHOUGH WILL ALSO KEEP VCTS IN A FEW
LOCATIONS WEST INTO THE EVENING FOR CONVECTION IN NRN INDIANA.
OVERNIGHT EXPECT ANOTHER ROUND OF CONVECTION WILL LIKELY OCCUR
TOWARDS MORNING BUT PLACEMENT UNCERTAIN AT THIS TIME. SAME FOR
WEDNESDAY SO DID PUT IN VCTS ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA.

.OUTLOOK...NON VFR LIKELY AT TIMES WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH
SUNDAY IN SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS AS WELL AS MORNING FOG/MIST.

&&

.MARINE...
THE SOUTH WIND/WAVES ON LAKE ERIE WERE HEADING TOWARD THE CANADIAN
SIDE OF THE LAKE. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL BECOME MORE LIKELY
AS TIME GOES ON...ESPECIALLY LATER TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY. MARINERS
WILL HAVE TO BE ALERT FOR THE CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS WITH STRONG
WINDS. THE GRADIENT WILL BE LIGHTER ON WEDNESDAY AND LOCAL LAKE
BREEZES ARE POSSIBLE. A WEAK COLD FRONT WILL DROP ACROSS THE LAKE BY
WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THE FLOW WILL LIKELY COME AROUND FROM THE
NORTHEAST ON THURSDAY.

BY FRIDAY THE FRONT WILL LIKELY HEAD BACK NORTH AND WINDS MAY COME
BACK AROUND FROM THE SOUTH ALTHOUGH NOT A LOT OF CONFIDENCE IN THE
FORECAST POSITION OF THE FRONT LATER IN THE WEEK SO NOT A LOT OF
CONFIDENCE IN THE WIND DIRECTION FORECAST. WIND SPEEDS SHOULD
GENERALLY REMAIN LIGHT BUT THERE IS STILL THE RISK OF THUNDERSTORMS.
THE FLOW SHOULD COME AROUND MORE FROM THE WEST BY THIS WEEKEND AS
ANOTHER WEAK COLD FRONT CROSSES THE LAKE AND THERE WILL STILL BE A
CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS.
