NWS Wilmington, OH wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jul 27, 6:48 AM EST, 1 hour 42 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH 748 AM EDT THU JUL 27 2006 .AVIATION /12Z-12Z/... WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN JUST NORTH OF FORECAST AREA AND TAF SITES THROUGH 12Z FRI. HOWEVER...SHOULD SEE ENOUGH INSTABILITY AND LIFT TO PRODUCE SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS TODAY. BEST CHANCES WILL BE AT TAF SITES FROM KDAY TO KILN TO KCMH AND KLCK. HAVE SEEN AN INCREASE IN SHOWER/THUNDERSTORM COVERAGE LAST SEVERAL HOURS. AREA OF SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS IN INDIANA ASSOCIATED WITH NEXT UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE EAST INTO FORECAST AREA OVER THE REMAINDER OF THE MORNING. SHOULD SEE A BREAK IN PRECIPITATION THIS AFTERNOON BEFORE IT RETURNS LATE THIS AFTERNOON. WILL CONTINUE TO SEE SCT SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS IN THE 06Z-12Z TIME FRAME. VSBY AND CIGS GENERALLY VFR EXCEPT IN SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED AT 226 AM EDT THU JUL 27 2006/ SHORT TERM /TODAY THROUGH SATURDAY/... H5 S/W EXITING NE OH TOWARDS THE LARGER LOW THAT IS OVER ERN CANADA. NVA NOTED EARLY TODAY WITH WESTERLY FLOW AT THIS LEVEL...AND A SECONDARY VORT IN THE FLOW FOUND OVER NRN OH AT 18Z. GFS HAS TOO MUCH OF A CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK AND WHAT APPEARS TO BE SLIGHTLY UNREASONABLE PLACEMENT OF ANOTHER LOBE OF H5 VORT IN SE OH AT THIS TIME. WESTERLY FLOW WILL CONTINUE THROUGH FRI AS A WEAK S/W PASSES THROUGH LATE IN THE DAY. WEAK H5 TROF SETS UP SW OF CWA IN SRN KY OVERNIGHT FRI...AND WINDS AT THIS LEVEL SHIFT NW IN ITS PASSAGE BY SAT MORN. H5 PATTERN ON MODELS DIVERGE SIGNIFICANTLY ON SAT. NAM APPEARS TO BE THE OUTLIER WITH STRONG ALMOST CUTOFF H5 TROF EXTENDING FROM SW OH TOWARDS NRN MISSIP. H5 ENSEMBLES FROM GFS DONT SHOW ANY PERTUBATION IN THIS AREA...AND ALL SHOW THE SAME MEAN RIDGING OVER THE UPPER MIDWEST AND PLAINS. CHECKED THE ENS FROM CANADIEN MODEL AND ONLY TWO OF THE 16 ITERATIONS HINT AT THE NAM SOLUTION WITH THE REMAINING SUPPORTING THE GFS. WILL EXPECT A H5 TROF IN THIS AREA SAT AFTERNOON AND KEEP CHCS OF PRECIP IN BUT DIVERGE FROM THE NAM AND BE MORE PROGRESSIVE WITH SERN PUSH OF H5 TROF...BUT HOLD IT BACK A BIT AND NOT BE AS QUICK AS THE GFS. THIS WOULD PUT UPPER LEVEL TROF SE OF FCST AREA STARTING ON SAT WHICH IS IN LINE WITH THE ECMWF AND FAVORING THE SRN MOISTURE SOLUTION FOR ANY TROPICAL MOISTURE THIS WEEKEND. FOR TODAY...SHOWER ACTIVITY OVER NRN FCST AREA WILL BE A BIT MORE PERSISTENT...GFS IS TOO FAR S WITH PRECIP AND BOMBS OUT A VORT OUT OF NOWHERE SO THIS SOLUTION IS BEING DISCOUNTED FOR THE IMMEDIATE SHORT TERM. ACTIVITY WILL LIKELY DIE DOWN OVERNIGHT AND PICK BACK UP FOR FRIDAY AS CONVERGENT ZONE IN LLVLS REMAINS ORIENTED OVER CWA FROM SW-NE FROM TODAY THROUGH FRI NIGHT. SFC RIDGING BUILDS E OF FCST AREA ON SAT AND THE PASSAGE OF UPPER LEVEL SUPPORT WOULD HAVE A DRY FCST FOR ALL BUT KY AND AREAS CLOSE TO OHRIVER. THREAT FOR SVR WILL HAVE TO BE MONITORED LATER THIS MORNING...INITIAL FEELING IS THAT THE GRUNGE FROM CLOUD COVER WILL INHIBIT THE STRONGEST STORMS FROM GOING SVR. TRAINING OVER NRN FCST AREA WILL INCREASE FLOODING POTENTIAL...BUT AGAIN THIS WILL DEPEND ON ACTIVE STRONG STORMS TRAINING OVER A SPECIFIC AREA. NOT ENOUGH CONFIDENCE TO SAY THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN. WILL ADD HEAVY RAIN WORDING IN NORTH OF I-70 TO ACCOUNT FOR THIS. DID NOT CHANGE MUCH IN TEMPS. GENERALLY LOWERED A DEG OR TWO IN THE NORTH TODAY...TRENDED DOWN A DEG THE NEXT TWO DAYS EVERYWHERE. THOUGHT THAT CLOUD COVER AND PRECIP WOULD HAMPER HIGHS AROUND 90 FOR MOST AREAS. FRANKS LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... HAVE NOT CHANGED FROM PREV FCST. AVIATION /06Z-06Z/... SHORT WAVE IN UPPER LEVELS WAS MOVING NE AND OUT OF FORECAST AREA WITH ANOTHER SHORT WAVE APROACHING THE REGION BY 12Z TODAY. WEAK SURFACE BOUNDARY WILL REMAIN JUST NORTH OF FORECAST AREA AND TAF SITES THROUGH 06Z. HOWEVER...SHOULD SEE ENOUGH INSTABILITY AND LIFT TO PRODUCE SHOWERS AND SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS TODAY. BEST CHANCES WILL BE AT TAF SITES FROM KDAY TO KILN TO KCMH AND KLCK. SHOULD SEE PRECIPITATION PICK UP AROUND 12Z WITH A BREAK THIS AFTERNOON BEFORE RETURNING LATE THIS AFTERNOON WITH A BETTER CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS. VSBY MVFR MAINLY AT KILN BEFORE 12Z OTHERWISE VSBY VFR. CIGS GENERALLY VFR EXCEPT FOR IN SHOWERS/THUNDERSTORMS. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...NONE. KY...NONE. IN...NONE. &&
