What forecasters said that day
The local office's own words before this wind advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Wilmington, OH wrote its last area forecast discussion before this wind advisory went out at Oct 20, 1:57 AM EDT, 2 hours 4 minutes earlier.
Area forecast discussion, Oct 20, 1:57 AM EDT, 2 hours 4 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Wilmington OH 157 AM EDT Sat Oct 20 2018 .SYNOPSIS... Drizzle will be present during the overnight hours. Showers and strong winds will accompany a vigorous cold front on Saturday. Cool and dry weather will follow the cold front for Sunday. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THIS MORNING/... No significant changes were made to the going forecast, with the main purpose of the update to adjust PoPs -- with 100 percent chances along and ahead of the main band of precipitation, which has essentially developed as expected. Just ahead of this band, there was a brief period of winds gusting to around 20 knots or slightly higher, but in the heavier rain the gusts have (for now) calmed down again. This will change overnight as the pressure gradient tightens, with low-level moisture advection continuing to lower the ceiling heights in the middle Ohio Valley. At the same time, RAP forecasts indicate a sharp gradient in theta-e at 700mb, roughly corresponding to the cut- off of the deep-layer moisture and the heavier precipitation. Behind this feature, as cooler and drier air works in aloft, moisture will become more shallow and precipitation will become more drizzly. Previous discussion > Showers developing along a swath of short wave energy and associated weak surface trough will push across the area this evening into the overnight hours. Driven by an 80 knot 500 mb wind, bulk of showers will occur along and south of I-71 where mid level forcing and low level moisture convergence coincide. Rainfall amounts will range up to a quarter inch in southern locations. We will see wind gusts over 20 mph overnight as the pressure gradient tightens well ahead of a strong cold front due to arrive on Saturday. Patchy drizzle may be experienced later tonight as showers end. Strong mixing and cloud cover will help keep lows up in the mid and upper 40s. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM SUNDAY/... A relative lull in precip will occur early Saturday, before a potent cold front arrives with widespread showers Saturday afternoon and evening. With only weak instability in a rather shallow layer, kept thunder our of the forecast. As temperatures climb back into the 50s, strong winds are indicated starting Saturday afternoon, continuing through Saturday evening and into Saturday night. Tapping into 40+ knots at 850 mb, gusts close to 40 knots are likely for a brief time late Saturday afternoon. Will continue to mention strong wind potential in the HWO, while later shifts may view fresh guidance and issue wind headline if necessary. Precip will be ending Saturday night as high pressure and downward motion move in under a confluent flow aloft. As temperatures fall to near freezing, a few snow flakes may be observed near the end of the event as the colder temps advect in on the strong northwest flow behind the front. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/... A quiet, dry, and seasonable period is in store for the Ohio Valley for this time frame. Behind a cold front, Sunday will start out about 10 deg cooler than normal - upper 40s to around 50. Monday will moderate nicely to near normal with a good bit of sunshine and southwest flow advecting in warmer air. High pressure will then build over the Upper Midwest and keep the Ohio Valley in a cool surface flow that will marginally hamper the direct heating from generally sunny skies. Expect mid 50s to some upper 50s for the remainder of the forecast period, warmest over Kentucky. Overnight lows will be warmest Monday night as the southwest flow keeps up - lower 40s most locations. Outside of this, they should be slightly below normal in the middle to upper 30s. The next chance of rain occurs at the tail end of the forecast - Thursday night/Friday as shortwave energy pushes east from a low in the mid section of the country. European is progressive with the low and has a much higher chance of showers for day 7 onwards, whereas the GFS weakens the wave during this time and reinforces the trough over the plains states. Split the difference on Thurs night/Friday and have low chance pops with low confidence in the forecast at this point in time. Remainder of the forecast seems pretty solid and seasonable. && .AVIATION /06Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... MVFR and IFR cigs will be present through the overnight hours and into the early daytime hours on Saturday. Cigs may drop into the LIFR category later overnight. Some drizzle will be possible at times as well. With winds staying up some through the night not expecting a lot in the way of visibility restrictions overnight. Clouds will begin to decrease in coverage some for the late morning and into the early afternoon. Winds will begin to pick up and become gusty. A strong system will move through Saturday afternoon into Saturday evening bringing with it very gusty winds and rain showers. Wind gusts of 35 to 40 knots are expected. A few snow showers will be possible near the end of the KCMH and KLCK TAFs as colder air works in. MVFR cigs will also be possible at times towards the end of the TAF period.
