AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH 421 PM EDT SAT AUG 13 2005 .SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT)... NAM AND GFS SHOWING SOME DISAGREEMENT IN PLACEMENT/MOVEMENT OF FRONT DURING THE NEXT 36-48 HRS. GFS HAS TRENDED THE MOST CONSISTENTLY OVER THE LAST SEVERAL RUNS. HOWEVER...CONFIDENCE IS RATHER LOW WITH REGARDS TO PLACEMENT AND INTENSITY OF THE SFC WAVES IT IS DEVELOPING ALONG THE FRONT. HAVE THUS ADJUSTED THE FORECAST THIS SHORT TERM TO WEIGH MORE TOWARD THE GFS IN REGARDS TO FRONTAL POSITION...BUT NOT IN REGARDS TO POPS AND QPF DUE TO UNCERTAINTY WITH DEVELOPMENT OF ANY FRONTAL WAVES. FOR TONIGHT...FRONTAL SYSTEM CURRENTLY POSITIONED TO OUR N AND NW SHOULD PUSH SLOWLY SOUTHEASTWARD OVERNIGHT. THE BEST CHC FOR PRECIP WILL BE DURING THE EVENING HOURS. COVERAGE SHOULD TALE OFF SOMEWHAT DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. SCATTERED NATURE OF CONVECTION...GIVEN THE MARGINAL DYNAMIC FORCING SHOULD FIT BETTER WITH CHC POPS COVERAGE. FOR SUNDAY AND SUNDAY NIGHT...FRONT SHOULD MOVE DOWN INTO THE ILN FA. GFS SHOWING A BIT MORE IN THE WAY OF BOUNDARY LAYER FORCING. ALTHOUGH SOMEWHAT SUSPECT...HAVE GONE WITH A MORE BLENDED POPS SOLUTION BETWEEN THE NAM AND GFS. HAVE THUS INCREASED THE POPS FOR SUNDAY AFTERNOON TO THE LIKELY CATEGORY ACROSS THE CENTER TWO THIRDS OF OUR FA. FRONT SHOULD CONTINUE TO MOVE SLOWLY TO THE SE SUNDAY NIGHT...ALLOWING FOR A DECREASE CHC POPS AS THE NIGHT PROGRESSES. && .LONG TERM (MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY)... LOOKS LIKE FRONTAL BOUNDARY SHOULD BE SITUATED SOMEWHERE ALONG OR JUST SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER MONDAY. GIVEN LACK OF ANYTHING TO REALLY PUSH IT THROUGH THOUGH...THINK MODELS ARE PUSHING FRONT TOO FAR SOUTH AND PREFER HPC SOLUTION OF SLOWLY LIFTING BOUNDARY BACK NORTH ACROSS THE AREA THROUGH MID WEEK. THEREFORE...WITH FRONT IN THE VICINITY...WILL GENERALLY GO WITH SLIGHT CHANCE TO LOW CHANCE POPS MONDAY AND TUESDAY. MOST OF FA SHOULD THEN BE WARM SECTORED FOR WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY WHICH SHOULD KEEP BETTER FORCING TO OUR NORTH. WILL THEREFORE MAINLY ALLOW FOR JUST A SLIGHT CHANCE OF AN AFTERNOON OR EARLY EVENING THUNDERSTORM THOSE DAYS AND TRY TO DIURNALLY DRY THINGS OUT OVERNIGHT. ALSO...WITH AREA EXPECTED TO BE IN THE WARM SECTOR...WILL GO WARMER THAN MEX GUIDANCE FOR HIGHS BOTH WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY. STRONGER COLD FRONT THEN FORECAST TO PUSH DOWN INTO AREA FRIDAY INTO FRIDAY NIGHT. THIS SHOULD BRING WITH IT A BETTER CHANCE OF PCPN ALONG WITH A COOLER/DRIER AIRMASS FOR NEXT WEEKEND. && .AVIATION (18Z-18Z)... CONVECTIVE TEMPERATURE HAS BEEN ACHIEVED...AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE POPPED UP IN SOUTHERN OHIO AND NORTHERN KENTUCKY. CONVECTION IS CURRENTLY AWAY FROM TAF SITES...BUT ALL SITES CAN EXPECT TO HAVE A CUMULONIMBUS IN SIGHT THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY THIS EVENING. AFTER THUNDERSTORMS DIE DOWN DIURNALLY TONIGHT...CONVECTION WILL REFORM EARLY SUNDAY AHEAD OF A SHORT WAVE. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...NONE. KY...NONE. IN...NONE. &&
