.SYNOPSIS...
Issued at 421 AM EDT Mon Aug 20 2018

An upper level disturbance will move across the area later today and
tonight. Showers and some storms will spread across the area through
this afternoon and persist through much of Tuesday. Rainfall amounts
will range from one to three inches. Drier, cooler and less humid
weather will follow on Wednesday. Highs will be in the 70s
Wednesday through Friday.

&&

.SHORT TERM...(Tonight and Tuesday)
Issued at 202 PM EDT Mon Aug 20 2018

Leading edge of warm advection wing now lifting into swrn zones this
hour and will overspread remainder of cwa through this evening. More
erstwhile development expected overnight ahead of sfc occlusion
timed with maximizing low level moisture flux and more spirited
forcing. Substantial warm cloud depth/pwat suggest some significant
rains likely of which may yield some runoff problems overnight
pending evolution/alignment of convective elements.

Otherwise system opens quickly late tonight and will accelerate ne
into ON. Lingering showers along low level trough axis will decay
through mid morning Tue east while new development follows in the
late morning/early aftn as upper trough axis pivots through.

&&

.LONG TERM...(Tuesday night through Sunday)
Issued at 202 PM EDT Mon Aug 20 2018

Slow clearing Tue night will accelerate on Wed as ridging sfc and
aloft build into the area. Very pleasant seasonably cool and dry
weather then through Fri.

Minor disturbance over the nrn Rockies this aftn will kickout
through the Dakotas late Thu and into swrn ON late Fri. Warm
advection push ahead of this system will bring a another chance for
rain Fri night/early Sat. Thereafter substantial height rises aloft
to ensue as mid level ridge builds into the OH valley with much
warmer temps expected next weekend and through much of next week.

.AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Tuesday Afternoon)
Issued at 130 PM EDT Mon Aug 20 2018

KIWX radar indicating line of showers with embedded thunder moving
into the area this afternoon. This is in association with warm front
lifting north that extends from low pressure center over Iowa.
Elevated instability ahead of the front along with better surface
based destabilization in warm sector behind warm front will allow
for thunder mention focused on this afternoon/evening. Showers

visibilities for now and monitor this evening and amend as needed.
