AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
701 PM EST WED DEC 23 2015

.SYNOPSIS...
A LINE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION THIS
EVENING. A WEAKENING COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH TOMORROW
MORNING...STALLING SOUTHEAST OF THE AREA BY THURSDAY EVENING.
TEMPERATURES WILL REMAIN ABOVE NORMAL THROUGH EARLY NEXT WEEK WITH
ADDITIONAL CHANCES FOR RAIN DEVELOPING OVER THE WEEKEND AS THE
FRONT MOVES NORTH.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
INITIAL LINE OF STORMS HAS WEAKENED CONSIDERABLY AS IT HAS
CONTINUE EAST INTO CENTRAL OHIO. NEXT WAVE OF STORMS IS HEADING
INTO THE SOUTHWEST PART OF THE FORECAST AREA. APPEARS THAT MORE
ROBUST CONVECTION WILL AFFECT THE SOUTHERN AND POSSIBLY EASTERN
COUNTIES THROUGH MIDNIGHT. PARAMETERS STILL LOOK REASONABLY
FAVORABLE FOR A SEVERE THREAT WITH DAMAGING WIND GUSTS THE PRIMARY
THREAT. A TORNADO CANNOT BE RULED OUT GIVEN SHEAR PROFILES. CLOUDS
SHOULD START TO DIMINISH IN THE LATTER PART OF THE NIGHT.

TEMPERATURES WILL BE NON DIURNAL TONIGHT...STAYING STEADY OR
RISING FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE TONIGHT BEFORE FALLING OFF AT
THE END. A LARGE TEMPERATURE GRADIENT SHOULD EXIST AT THE END OF
TONIGHT WITH LOWS IN THE NW COUNTIES IN THE MID 40S AND THE UPPER
50S IN THE SE.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THURSDAY MORNING THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
OTHER THAN A LINGERING SLIGHT CHANCE OF A SHOWER IN THE EXTREME
SOUTHEAST COUNTIES TOMORROW MORNING. THURSDAY SHOULD BE DRY. A
MIX OF CLOUDS AND SUN SHOULD ALLOW TEMPERATURES TO REMAIN WELL
ABOVE NORMAL WITH HIGHS REACHING THE MID 50S IN THE NORTHWEST AND
THE MID 60S ACROSS THE SOUTH.

WITH HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES TOMORROW INTO
THURSDAY NIGHT THE FRONT IS SHUNTED SOUTH OF THE REGION. THERE IS
A WIDE RANGE IN MODEL SOLUTIONS FOR LATE THURSDAY NIGHT INTO
FRIDAY IN HOW QUICKLY THE PCPN RETURNS INTO THE FA. THE GFS AND
CANADIAN KEEP THE FA DRY THURSDAY NIGHT...WHILE THE NAM AND ECMWF
BRING SOME LIGHT PCPN IN NRN KY. THE ECMWF AND CANADIAN THEN LIFT
THE PCPN OVER THE FA FRIDAY...WHILE THE GFS AND NAM KEEP IT SOUTH
OF THE REGION. LEANED TOWARDS THE GFS SOLUTION SINCE IT IS THE
MOST CONSISTENT...DID ADD A CHANCE OF PCPN IN THE SOUTH TO COVER
THE OTHER SOLUTIONS.

ANOTHER WARM DECEMBER DAY IS FORECAST FOR CHRISTMAS. HIGHS
RANGING FROM THE MID 50S TO MID 60S. RECORD HIGH MINIMUM
TEMPERATURES MAY ALSO BE THREATENED AT TIMES.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A VERY ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MUCH OF THE
EXTENDED PERIOD WITH A COUPLE ROBUST SYSTEMS MOVING THROUGH THE
REGION. A WARM FRONT WILL LIFT NORTHWARD THROUGH THE AREA SATURDAY
MORNING ALONG WITH STRONG WAA AND ISENTROPIC LIFT. MOISTURE
TRANSPORT WILL BE IMPRESSIVE SATURDAY INTO SUNDAY THANKS TO A 40 TO
50 KT LLJ ADVECTING IN UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S DEW POINTS. GIVEN THAT
THE AXIS OF STRONGEST MOISTURE TRANSPORT WILL BE ORIENTED ALONG THE
FRONT...EXPECT COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF MOISTURE. PWATS SATURDAY INTO
SUNDAY WILL LIKELY INCREASE TO OVER 1.5 INCHES ACROSS OUR ENTIRE
CWA. NAEFS PWAT STANDARDIZED ANOMALIES WITHIN THE ILN CWA ARE
FORECAST TO EXCEED 3 SIGMAS AND THE MAJORITY OF THE CWA WILL ALSO
FALL WITHIN THE NAEFS MAXIMUM PWAT PERCENTILES FOR LATE
DECEMBER...NEEDLESS TO SAY A VERY IMPRESSIVE MOISTURE SIGNAL FOR
THIS TIME OF YEAR. FOCUS FOR THE HEAVIEST SHOWERS WILL BE MAINLY
ALONG THE WARM FRONT AS IT LIFTS FROM SOUTH TO NORTH ON SATURDAY.
THE FRONT WILL THEN STALL JUST NORTHWEST OF THE ILN CWA SATURDAY
NIGHT...AND DROP BACK SOUTHEASTWARD AS A COLD FRONT ON SUNDAY.
MUCAPES WILL BE A FEW HUNDRED J/KG AND FORECAST SOUNDINGS SUPPORT A
CHANCE OF THUNDER UNTIL THE COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH. LOCALIZED
FLOODING AND LATER ON SOME RIVER FLOODING WILL BE POSSIBLE GIVEN THE
PROLONGED PERIOD OF ANOMALOUSLY HIGH MOISTURE.

MUCH COLDER /BUT STILL ABOVE NORMAL/ AND DRIER AIR WILL STREAM IN
BEHIND THE FRONT SUNDAY NIGHT. CANNOT RULE OUT A LIGHT RAIN/SNOW MIX
IN THE FAR NORTH EARLY MONDAY MORNING BEFORE TEMPERATURES WARM AND
SUPPORT A CHANGEOVER TO RAIN DURING THE DAY MONDAY. AS THE GFS/ECMWF
BEGIN TO DIVERGE ON MONDAY HAVE GONE WITH A BLEND OF THE TWO FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD. A SURFACE LOW WILL DEVELOP OVER
THE SOUTHERN PLAINS AND LIFT INTO THE OHIO VALLEY MONDAY INTO
TUESDAY. ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT PUSH OF MOISTURE WILL ALLOW FOR MORE
WIDESPREAD SHOWERS ACROSS THE AREA MONDAY AND MONDAY NIGHT. SEEING
VERY LITTLE IF ANY ELEVATED INSTABILITY SO DO NOT EXPECT ANY THUNDER
WITH THIS SYSTEM. THEN GENERALLY SLIGHT CHANCE POPS FOR TUESDAY INTO
WEDNESDAY AS WEAK DISTURBANCES MOVE THROUGH...WITH SOME LIGHT SNOW
SHOWERS POSSIBLE TUESDAY NIGHT.

TEMPERATURES WILL START OFF WELL ABOVE NORMAL ON SATURDAY WITH
RECORD HIGHS CERTAINLY POSSIBLE GIVEN A BROAD 925 MB TEMP ANOMALY
ABOVE 2 SIGMAS SITTING OVER THE OHIO VALLEY. HIGH TEMPERATURES ON
SATURDAY WILL LIKELY BE IN THE LOW 60S NORTH AND NEAR 70 IN THE
SOUTH. WILL COOL BACK DOWN FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE PERIOD BUT STILL
REMAIN ABOVE NORMAL FOR LATE DECEMBER.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL MOVE ACROSS THE TERMINALS DURING THE EARLY
PART OF THE TAF PERIOD. THIS WILL BRING WINDS GUSTS AND
POTENTIALLY IFR VISIBILITIES. ONCE THIS MOVES THROUGH IT APPEARS
THAT LOWER CLOUDS WILL SCATTER ALLOWING CONDITIONS TO BE VFR.
HOWEVER THERE IS SOME CHANCE THAT THERE COULD BE TEMPORARY MVFR
CEILINGS OVERNIGHT. WINDS WILL GUST TO AROUND 30 KT IMMEDIATELY
BEHIND THE RAIN. THE WINDS WILL SLOWLY VEER AND WEAKEN AFTER 06Z.
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN THURSDAY WHICH WILL ALLOW WINDS TO
BACK WITH SPEEDS LESS THAN 10 KT. CONDITIONS WILL REMAIN VFR WITH
JUST SOME CIRRUS.

OUTLOOK... MVFR CONDITIONS LIKELY WITH IFR CONDITIONS POSSIBLE
FRIDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY.
