Area forecast discussion, Aug 13, 3:47 PM EDT, 39 minutes before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION National Weather Service Wilmington OH 347 PM EDT Fri Aug 13 2021 .SYNOPSIS... A cold front will move southeast across the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley tonight. High pressure will build into the region for the weekend, bringing cooler and less humid conditions. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/... Early this evening, the southern portion of local area will be under the influence of warm, humid airmass with MLCAPE values up to around 2000 J/kg. Expect scattered to numerous airmass thunderstorms to continue to develop in this area. Effective bulk shear values will be generally less than 20 knots, meaning the storms will remain poorly organized. However, DCAPE values well above 1000 J/kg suggests a heightened downburst threat with stronger cores. Cold frontal boundary in the Great Lakes will slide southeast into the Ohio Valley tonight. While this surface boundary will likely increase convergence ahead of it, mid-level clouds northwest of I-71, along with evening convection southeast of I-71, will likely dampen potential for widespread thunderstorm development. Have cut down on PoPs to chance range due to these latest trends. Low temperatures will range from the low 60s northwest behind the front to around 70 southeast. Humidity levels will drop throughout the night, providing more comfortable conditions. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/... On Saturday, the cold front will exit south into Kentucky. There may be a lingering shower early in the southeast; otherwise, skies will become mostly sunny as high pressure builds into the Great Lakes. It will be drier and cooler as our low level flow will be from the north to northeast around 10 to 15 mph. && .LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... To start the period, broad high pressure extends over much of the Great Lakes region. Cool, dry weather is expected Sunday with highs in the upper 70s and lower 80s. By Monday morning, an unsettled weather pattern moves into the area again. Models agree on a gradual progression of a frontal system across the midwest throughout the week with a couple of disturbances in the overall flow developing. ECMWF/GFS have placed a shortwave trough crossing Ohio Monday evening, however, there is still lots of uncertainty around when/where disturbances will develop and how they will interact with TS Fred. Southwesterly flow in the mid levels sets up Monday and persists throughout the week, ushering in plenty of tropical moisture. Following ensemble models, have kept pops at chance/slight chance for the remainder of the period with some thunderstorms developing during the diurnally favored time frame each afternoon and evening. Temperatures remain near normal with lows in the 60s and highs in the 80s for Monday-Friday. && .AVIATION /20Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... Main concern for early in the TAF period will be the coverage and intensity of showers and storms. Expect strongest storms could produce 35-50 mph wind gusts; however, most convection should stay under this threshold. Main uncertainty is timing the storms at each site, since this is dependent on subtle details which continue to challenge high-resolution models. Will track closely for TAF updates as details become clearer through the afternoon. Cold front will slide south through the terminals this evening, with storm coverage decreasing from north to south concurrently with a southwest to northwest wind shift. Behind the front, clouds will decrease as well. OUTLOOK...Thunderstorms possible Monday. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...None. KY...None.
