AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH 322 PM EDT FRI SEP 23 2005 .SHORT TERM (TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT)... BASED ON LATEST SURFACE ANALYSIS...LOOKS LIKE FRONT HAS PUSHED DOWN CLOSE TO THE OHIO RIVER. HOWEVER...VISIBLE SATELLITE AND RADAR IMAGES BEGINNING TO SHOW SOME DEVELOPMENT ALONG A NARROW LINE FROM EAST CENTRAL INDIANA OVER INTO CENTRAL OHIO. MEANWHILE MORE ORGANIZED AREA OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUING TO PUSH EAST ACROSS EAST CENTRAL ILLINOIS INTO WESTERN INDIANA. NONE OF THE MODELS INCLUDING THE LATEST RUC SEEM TO HAVE A VERY GOOD HANDLE ON THESE FEATURES. BASED ON CURRENT TRENDS...AM AFRAID PCPN MOVING INTO WESTERN INDIANA WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK EAST ALONG NEWLY DEVELOPED BOUNDARY AND AFFECT AREAS ALONG I-70 THROUGH LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING. WILL CONTINUE TO MONITOR RADAR TRENDS THROUGH ZONE ISSUANCE TO DETERMINE FINAL POPS BUT WILL PROBABLY END UP WITH CHANCE POPS FOR MOST AREAS INTO EARLY EVENING. WILL THEN ALLOW PCPN TO TAPER OFF OVERNIGHT. FORECAST SOUNDINGS INDICATING GOOD DEAL OF LOW LEVEL MOISTURE OVERNIGHT TONIGHT SO EXPECT A FAIR AMOUNT OF STRATUS TO PUSH DOWN INTO AREA THROUGH DAYBREAK. MID LEVEL FLOW SWINGS BACK AROUND TOWARD THE SOUTHWEST SATURDAY INTO SATURDAY NIGHT WITH BOTH THE NAM AND GFS INDICATING SOME WEAK ISENTROPIC LIFT DEVELOPING ACROSS THE AREA. PDEFS DROP DOWN TO AROUND 50 MB AT TIMES THROUGH THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING...BUT MOISTURE IS LIMITED SO WILL KEEP FORECAST DRY. GFS FASTER THAN THE NAM PULLING MOISTURE UP FROM THE SOUTHWEST AHEAD OF APPROACHING FRONT FOR SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT. WILL GO WITH A BLEND OF THE TWO AND ALLOW FOR A CHANCE OF PCPN TO SPREAD IN FROM THE SOUTHWEST THROUGH SUNDAY. && .LONG TERM (MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY)... AM STARTING OUT FAIRLY WET ON MONDAY AS THE SFC CDFNT EXTENDS THROUGH THE OHVLY. ABUNDANT GULF MOISTURE IS FOUND AHEAD OF THIS FRONT AS THE LEFTOVERS FROM RITA ALLOW THE GULF TO OPEN UP. BY EVENING...H5 TROF AND SFC FRONT ARE OVER CWA AND EXIT FAIRLY QUICKLY OVERNIGHT AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS OVER THE PLAINS STATES. MODELS ARE TRENDING TO SLOW DOWN THE EXIT OF THIS SFC FRONT AND IVE INCREASED THE DURATION OF PRECIP INTO MON NIGHT...ESP TO THE SE. THIS HIGH WILL PRODUCE FAIR WX STARTING OVERNIGHT MON...AND SETTLE OVER THE CWA ON TUE NIGHT. HPC GUIDANCE SHOWING A MORE OF A EUROPEAN SOLUTION WHICH IS IN LINE WITH THE NAM AND SIGNIFICANTLY WEAKER WITH THE H5 TROF THAN BEING NOTED ON THE GFS. THE HIGH GETS PUSHED TO THE EAST ON WED AS ANOTHER LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM NEARS THE AREA LATE ON WED. THIS IS AHEAD OF A FAIRLY STRONG H5 TROF THAT DEEPENS AS IT PASSES FROM THE MIDWEST TO THE OHIO VALLEY. WITH THAT STRONG OF A PUSH...IT EXITS QUICKLY WITH HIGH PRESSURE ON ITS TAIL FOR THURS AND FRI. LOOKING FOR A COOLER PERIOD FOR THE END OF THE WEEK AS NRLY WINDS KICK IN THE CONTINENTAL AIR. CONFIDENCE IN FCST IS BELOW NORMAL AS RITA IS HAVING A PRONOUNCED EFFECT ON SLOWING UP H5 FLOW AND ASSOCIATED SFC FRONTS LATER IN THE WEEK. FRANKS && .AVIATION (18Z-18Z)... FRONT IS STILL SAGGING SOUTHWARD ACROSS THE REGION WITH SOME CONVECTION REDEVELOPING IN SOUTHEAST INDIANA AND SOUTHWEST OHIO. IN ADDITION THUNDERSTORMS APPROACHING WESTERN INDIANA ARE EXPECTED TO CONTINUE TRACKING EAST SOUTHEAST TOWARD THE REGION. SO IT APPEARS THAT BEST CHANCE OF PRECIPITATION WILL BE AT THE CINCINNATI TERMINALS. BUT GIVEN UNCERTAINTIES IN TIMING AND AREAL EXTENT OPTED TO USE VICINITY QUALIFIER AND CONTINUE TO MONITOR. NUMEROUS SCATTERED TO BROKEN DECKS OF CLOUDS MAKING CEILING FORECAST TRICKY. HAVE GENERALLY STARTED OUT MVFR WITH IMPROVEMENT THROUGH THE LATE AFTERNOON INTO THE EVENING. PLENTIFUL LOW LEVEL MOISTURE ALONG WITH NORTHEAST WINDS SUGGESTS STRATUS DEVELOPMENT OVERNIGHT. COULD SEE SOME IFR CEILINGS. THE STRATUS WILL GRADUALLY LIFT AND DIMINISH FROM DAYBREAK THROUGH THE END OF THE FORECAST PERIOD. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...NONE. KY...NONE. IN...NONE. &&
