Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wilmington OH
327 PM EDT Fri May 16 2025

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure over the upper Midwest state and a trailing cold front
will bring thunderstorms this evening. High pressure will offer
breezy and mild conditions heading into the weekend. An upper level
low will bring cloudy and cooler weather early next week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM SATURDAY MORNING/...
Vigorous upper level low over the upper Midwest will combine with
elevated wind field to bring a severe storm threat this evening. EML
apparent on GOES Channel 10 imagery is shifting east from the middle
Mississippi Valley into the Ohio Valley this afternoon. This is
providing mid-level lapse rates from 7-8 degC per km. This, combined
with warm, humid conditions at the surface will be leading to SBCAPE
around or possibly exceeding 3000J/kg. The enhanced southwesterly to
westerly flow aloft will bring effective bulk shear in the range of
50-60 knots.

Current radar mosaic shows supercells in a north-south line crossing
the Mississippi River around STL. Latest CAMs including the HRRR and
MPAS grow these storms upscale into a QLCS -- with the potential for
a few discreet supercells ahead of it -- nearing our western
counties around 7-8PM. Based on the predicted environment, all
hazards will be possible with these storms, with straight line winds
being the biggest concern.

Fast forward motion will likely result in the storms exiting our
eastern counties by around midnight or shortly after. The rest of the
night should be relatively quiet with low temperatures dropping to
around 60 in the rain-cooled air.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM SATURDAY MORNING THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
Trailing surface cold front will push through the region Saturday
morning. In its wake, westerly winds will gust to 25-35 mph at times.
Mostly sunny skies will allow high temperatures to rise to the upper
60s in the northwest to lower-middle 70s in the southeast.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
Mid level ridge will translate into the area early in the period,
but there are a number of models that show a weak short wave moving
through the ridge which could result in some showers making into the
Tri-State on Monday.

The ridge will get pinched off as a low tracks east out of the
central Plains on Tuesday. This low will get absorbed into another
low retrograding across southeast Canada on Wednesday. The large
merged low will then pivot eastward Thursday night into Friday. This
evolution will lead to several days of wet weather, with some
improvement late in the week. In addition, temperatures will be
below normal with Thursday looking to be the coolest day with
readings 10 degrees or more below normal.

&&

.AVIATION /19Z FRIDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
Main aviation weather impact for this period will be an advancing
line of storms moving through most of the terminals early this
evening. While a few of the recent CAMs have backed off storm coverage,
the latest HRRR as well as the MPAS still show the storms currently
developing across Missouri growing upscale into a semi-continuous
squall line as they reach DAY, CVG, and LUK by around 23Z-00Z.
Damaging winds will be the main threat, so have kept the tempo group
for this.

Winds will shift more westerly behind a cold front set to arrive to
the region Saturday morning. This should allow for decreasing clouds
but gusty winds for the rest of the period.

OUTLOOK...No significant weather expected.

&&

OH...None.
