Special Weather Statement, NWS Wilmington, OH

Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wilmington OH
200 PM EDT SAT AUG 27 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
Very warm and humid conditions will continue through the weekend.
In the very warm and humid airmass, a few afternoon thunderstorms
will be possible today mainly across the west. By Sunday into
Monday, several weak upper level disturbances will provide a
little better chance for a few showers and thunderstorms in the
area.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
A couple weak mid level shortwaves will round the periphery of an
upper level high centered over the Mid-Atlantic, lifting northeast
across Indiana and northwest Ohio today. These along with an axis
of surface convergence across the western FA will serve as the
focus for shower and thunderstorm development mainly this
afternoon. A pretty tight PWAT gradient is in place along the
IN/OH border this morning, but models are showing a surge in
moisture across our northwest this afternoon with PWATs there climbing
above 2 inches. With plenty of insolation this morning, moderate
instability is expected to develop across our west by this
afternoon. Given 20-30 knots of 0-6km shear, cannot rule out an
isolated stronger storm but it appears overall severe potential
will be limited by lack of significant forcing. Have bumped PoPs
up to chance across our west and also increased cloud cover
there, which translated into slightly cooler afternoon highs
northwest of I-71.

Other concern this afternoon will be the heat and humidity. Highs
will range from upper 80s in the northwest to mid 90s in the
southeast. Combined with dewpoints in the lower 70s, heat indicies
will likely flirt with advisory criteria in the south for a few
hours this afternoon. A few locations may briefly exceed 100, but
felt it will be limited enough to forego an advisory. Continued
mention of the heat threat in an SPS and the HWO.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH MONDAY/...
Nearly stationary elongated mid level ridge remains centered to
our se with a shortwave moving thru the Great Lakes, tonight/Sunday.
Moderate instby develops during the afternoon with a weak boundary
dropping south into the Ohio Valley. Have low chance pops across
the entire region with the best likelihood for convection across
the north. Very warm readings expected again on Sunday with highs
from the upper 80s nw to the lower/middle 90s se. Mid and upper
90s heat indices expected again Sunday afternoon.

Surface high pressure to build acrs the Great Lakes Monday where
mid level westerlies will exist. Meanwhile, e-w elongated mid
level ridge will stretch from the Central Plains thru the Tn
Valley and Del Mar Va. Weak boundary across the south may lead to
isold convective development across the south Monday afternoon.
Have limited pops to slight chance. Highs in the upper 80s to
lower 90s will result in heat indices in the mid/upr 90s across
the southern half of ILN/s FA.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
The proximity of a weak and somewhat nebulous surface boundary over
the region through early Wednesday will continue to necessitate the
potential for diurnally driven thunderstorm activity peaking in the
late day in a continued humid airmass.

Upper level high over the southeastern U.S. will flatten out and
retrograde into the Arklatex region as northwest flow sets up over
the northeastern U.S. with ridging in the Great Plains. The
northwest flow will help push a surface front through the Ohio
Valley on Wednesday, ushering in another welcome dry and cooler
period to start out September. Highs in the upper 80s to around 90
will be found Monday and Tuesday, drop into the 80s Wednesday and be
a more pleasant low to mid 80s for the end of the week. Min temps in
the upper 60s to lower 70s Monday and Tuesday will drop into the
lower 60s by weeks end.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z SATURDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
A line of convection will continue to progress northeastward over
the next few hours and is expected to affect mainly the western
terminals. MVFR to IFR vsbys and ceilings will be possible with
the stronger storms along with a wind shift to the W/NW. There is
lower confidence on whether the storms will hold together to reach
the Columbus terminals later this afternoon, as models remain
split on this possibility. Regardless, expect the convection to
diminish by early evening as instability wanes.

With plenty of low level moisture in place, light winds, and
skies becoming partly cloudy to mostly clear, br will be possible
overnight, especially at KCVG/KLUK/KILN. Weak high pressure over
the region will cause winds to become more northerly overnight
into Sunday. A weak boundary dropping down from the north will
allow for another chance of showers and storms Sunday afternoon,
but being so late in the period have not included this in the
TAFs.

OUTLOOK...Thunderstorms possible through Wednesday...mainly in
the afternoon and evening.
