AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
308 AM EST MON FEB 3 2014

.SYNOPSIS...
HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE AREA WILL RECEDE NORTH TO ALLOW A LOW TO MOVE
FROM TEXAS NORTHEAST ACROSS WEST VIRGINIA EARLY WEDNESDAY THEN OFF
THE NEW ENGLAND COAST LATER WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE PLAINS
WILL SPREAD EAST OVER OHIO THURSDAY THEN WEAKEN SATURDAY AS ANOTHER
LOW MOVES NORTHEAST ACROSS THE VIRGINIAS SUNDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM MONDAY EVENING/...
A WEAK UPPER S/W MOVING FROM TN THRU THE VIRGINIAS COULD PRODUCE
SOME FLURRIES OR LIGHT SNOW OVER THE SE FRINGE OF THE CWA EARLY THIS
MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE MOVING OVER THE AREA FROM THE WEST WILL
CONTINUE TO PUSH DRIER AIR OVER THE AREA AND SHOULD LEAD TO
DECREASING CLOUDS FROM WEST TO EAST TODAY.

TEMPS WILL REMAIN COLDER THAN NORMAL WITH HIGHS MOSTLY IN THE LOW TO
MID 20S.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM MONDAY EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
THE BIG CONCERN THRU WED NIGHT WILL BE THE TRACK OF A LOW THAT MOVES
FROM EAST TX NE INTO WV BY WED MORNING BEFORE QUICKLY SHIFTING OFF
THE NEW ENGLAND COAST BY LATER WED. THE TRACK OF THE LOW SHOULD STAY
JUST FAR ENOUGH SE OF THE AREA TO KEEP THE PRECIP AS SNOW. THE TRACK
SHOULD ALSO PUT THE CWA IN THE SWEET SPOT FOR THE HEAVIER SNOW BAND
ON THE NW SIDE OF THE TRACK OF THE LOW. THE SNOW MAY START LATE IN
THE DAY TUE IN THE FAR WEST THEN QUICKLY SPREAD EAST OVER THE REST
OF THE AREA THE FIRST HALF OF TUE NIGHT. THE HEAVIER SNOW SHOULD
TAPER OFF BY WED MORNING AS THE BETTER ENERGY WITH THE SYSTEM SHIFTS
ENE OF THE AREA. HOWEVER...DEEP MOISTURE LINGERS OVER THE AREA THRU
THE DAY WED AND SOME LAKE ENHANCEMENT MAY START TO OCCUR BY
AFTERNOON.

THE POTENTIAL FOR 6 TO 10 INCHES EXISTS WITH THIS SYSTEM SO WILL GO
AHEAD AND PUT UP A WINTER STORM WATCH STARTING LATE TUE IN THE WEST
AND RUN IT THRU ABOUT NOON ON WED IN THE WEST AND 4 PM IN THE EAST.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE OHIO VALLEY AND LOWER GREAT
LAKES REGION THURSDAY INTO FRIDAY.  SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY MODELS
BRING AN UPPER LOW ACROSS THE SOUTHERN PLAINS INTO THE LOWER
MISSISSIPPI VALLEY.  THE ECMWF WEAKENS THE UPPER SYSTEM WHILE THE
GFS CLOSES OFF THE LOW AND MOVES IT UP THE EAST COAST.  MEANWHILE AT
THE SURFACE BOTH MODELS DEVELOP LOW PRESSURE AND MOVE IT FROM THE
NRN GLFMX UP THE EAST COAST HOWEVER TIMING IS DIFFERENT WITH THE
ECMWF FASTER WITH THE SYSTEM.  AT THIS TIME WILL SIDE TOWARD AN
HPC/ECMWF MIX WITH CHANCE POPS SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY.

&&

.AVIATION /06Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
LITTLE CHANGE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS WITH FRONT STALLED SE OF
THE FORECAST AREA. GRADUAL IMPROVING TO VFR MONDAY AFTERNOON FROM THE
WEST AS HIGH PRESSURE GRADUALLY MOVES OVER THE AREA.

OUTLOOK...NON VFR IN SNOW LATE TUESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY.

&&

.MARINE...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACROSS THE LAKE TODAY AND TONIGHT. THE HIGH
WILL WEAKEN TUESDAY IN ADVANCE OF A STORM SYSTEM THAT WILL MOVE
NORTHEAST ACROSS EASTERN OHIO AND WESTERN PA TUESDAY NIGHT AND EARLY
WEDNESDAY. THURSDAY AND FRIDAY HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD EAST ACROSS
THE OHIO VALLEY AND LAKE ERIE.  EXPECT GENERALLY LIGHT NORTHERLY
WINDS ON THE LAKE TODAY TURNING NORTHEAST EARLY TUESDAY.  NORTHEAST
WINDS WILL INCREASE TO 15 TO 25 KNOTS TUESDAY NIGHT TURNING
NORTHWEST WEDNESDAY AS THE LOW PASSES TO THE SOUTHEAST OF THE LAKE.
WINDS WILL DECREASE TO 10 TO 15 KNOTS WEDNESDAY NIGHT AND THURSDAY
AS THEY BACK TO WEST.  WINDS WILL BACK FURTHER TO SOUTHWEST
FRIDAY.  NO MARINE HEADLINES EXPECTED. THROUGH THE PERIOD.
