Area forecast discussion, Jun 26, 10:44 PM EDT, 47 minutes before

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wilmington OH
1044 PM EDT SUN JUN 26 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
A weak cold front will push east across the area tonight and early
Monday. An upper level trough will cross the Great Lakes on Tuesday
and could spark a shower with the cold air being funnelled into the
region. High pressure will then settle over the Upper Midwest and
bring in drier and cooler air through mid week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/...
Convection is on a slow weakening trend and has slowed forward
movement. Recent HRRR and RAP runs have captured this trend and
suggest that it will continue with precipitation diminishing in
situ overnight.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
Somewhat drier and cooler air on northwest flow will be found
behind the frontal passage Monday. While some dewpoints along and
south of the Ohio River will remain in the upper 60s and lower 70s
during the day, they should drop off to the mid 60s overnight,
and be the lower limit of overnight low temperatures.

Dewpoints will drop off later Tuesday as an upper level trough
crosses the northern Ohio Valley. The colder air behind it
necessitated the inclusion of a possible shower in the afternoon.
Cloud cover and cooler air with these potential showers will hold
max temps to within a few degrees of 80. Any showers will
probably be more like passing sprinkles and should not
significantly affect any activities in the region.

The true cold and drier push of air comes in behind the upper
trough Tuesday evening. Dewpoints in the 50s will let overnight
lows drop into the 50s.

The shower and thunderstorm chance will then persist
across our southern and southeast areas into monday until the
front pushes south of the area through the afternoon. Highs on
Monday will be a bit cooler with highs in the mid to upper 80s.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
Period begins with high pressure centered over Illinois. The high
will provide dry weather and below normal temperatures on
Wednesday as highs will only make the upper 70s.

The high will work east up the Ohio Valley Wednesday night into
Thursday, keeping the region dry, but a little warmer as highs push
into the lower 80s.

Extended models have sped up the cdfnt for the end of the week.
Yesterday they had it reaching the fa on Saturday. Now both the 12Z
GFS and ECMWF bring it and an area of QPF through the fa on Friday.
Added chance PoPs of showers and thunderstorms for Friday. GFS and
ECMWF agree in placing the front around the Ohio River by 12Z. Srn
sections will have a chance of convection for Saturday. By Sunday
another high will bring drier conditions. High temperatures over
the weekend will remain in the lower 80s.

&&

.AVIATION /03Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Convection will impact KCMH/KLCK and perhaps KILN as well early in
the period. After storms end there will be a several hour lag
before a wind shift moves through. Visibilities will likely drop
at KLUK in mist/fog. Not completely out of the question that could
briefly happen elsewhere, although too low to include in the TAFs.
Drier air will work in after 12z with only mid to high clouds
which will clear late in the period.

OUTLOOK...No significant weather expected.
