AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH 138 PM EDT TUE JUL 10 2007 .SYNOPSIS... SOUTHWEST FLOW WILL INCREASE MOISTURE OVER THE OHIO VALLEY TODAY AND TONIGHT. A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD OVER THE REGION UNTIL ANOTHER COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH AT THE END OF THE WEEK. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/... SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED THIS MORNING ACROSS MUCH OF THE AREA. THIS IS IN ADVANCE OF APPROACHING MID LEVEL SHORT WAVE THAT WILL MOVE ACROSS THE AREA LATER THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT. WENT AHEAD AND UPDATED FORECAST TO REMOVE MORNING WORDING AND NUDGE UP POPS A BIT. && .SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/... DID NOT GO AS WARM TODAY IN THE SW AS SOME EARLY SHOWER ACTIVITY SHOULD REALLY HAMPER HOW HIGH TEMPS GET TODAY. THE MID LEVEL FORCING THAT WILL HELP SPARK ANY OF THESE SHOWERS AND STORMS WILL HAVE PUSHED E TOWARDS WV AND ANY LINGERING SHOWERS THIS EVENING SHOULD BE WEAK AND SHORT-LIVED...DECREASING AS THE NIGHT PROGRESSES. SOUTHWEST FLOW INCREASING AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING COLD FRONT WILL HAVE TONIGHT WITH THE WARMEST LOWS OF THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS...ALONG WITH INCREASED CLOUD COVER. THE FRONT WILL PUSH NW-SE THROUGH THE FCST AREA ON WED...SPARKING THUNDERSTORM ACTIVITY. IT QUICKLY DRIES OUT ON THE NW SIDE OF IT...SO TEMPS IN THE NW COULD BE SEVERAL DEG COOLER WITH A FASTER PROGRESSION. WED NIGHT AND THURS NIGHT WILL SEE COMFORTABLE AND COOLER CONDITIONS PREVAIL AS DRIER AIR GETS WORKED IN ON NRLY FLOW. FRANKS && .LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/... COLD FRONT WILL BE MOVING THROUGH THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY. EXPECT GOOD COVERAGE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS...ESPECIALLY IN THE SOUTHERN AND EASTERN ZONES. HAVE RAISED POPS TO LIKELY IN THOSE AREAS. PRECIPITATION SHOULD BE PUSHING OFF TO THE EAST BY WEDNESDAY EVENING BUT KEPT LINGERING LOW CHANCE POPS IN THE FAR SOUTHEAST ZONES. UPPER TROUGH WILL BECOME ESTABLISHED OVER THE REGION FOR THE LATTER PART OF THE WEEK. A FEW DISTURBANCES WILL ROTATE THROUGH THE TROUGH. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THERE COULD BE ENOUGH LIFT FOR SOME SHOWERS OR THUNDERSTORMS WITH ANY ONE OF THESE DISTURBANCES. BUT THERE IS PLENTY OF UNCERTAINTY OVER TIMING AS WELL AS COVERAGE OF ANY CONVECTION. SO AT THIS POINT THERE ONLY APPEARS TO BE A SLIGHT CHANCE AT ANY PARTICULAR TIME. BY EARLY NEXT WEEK THE UPPER FLOW WILL BECOME MORE CONFLUENT RESULTING IN GENERALLY DRY CONDITIONS. TEMPERATURES WILL BE AT OR BELOW NORMAL THROUGH THE LONG TERM PERIOD. && .AVIATION /18Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... FIRST ROUND OF PCPN PUSHING THROUGH NORTHEAST PORTION OF FA ATTM SO WILL HANG ON TO AN -SHRA/-TSRA FOR THE FIRST HOUR AT KLCK AND KCMH. OTHERWISE...EXPECT A BRIEF BREAK IN THE PCPN BEFORE NEXT BATCH CURRENTLY MOVING UP ACROSS NORTHERN KENTUCKY OVERSPREADS OUR FA. HAVE TRIED TO NARROW THUNDER MENTION INTO A TWO HOUR BEST GUESS TEMPO GROUP AT EACH OF THE TAF SITES...RANGING FROM 19-21Z FOR KCVG/KLUK TO 22-24 Z AT KCMH/KLCK. ONCE SECOND ROUND OF PCPN MOVES THROUGH AND WE LOSE OUR DAYTIME HEATING...EXPECT TO SEE SKIES GO MOSTLY CLEAR THIS EVENING. HOWEVER...MODELS CONTINUE THEIR TREND OF SPEEDING UP THE TIMING OF THE FRONT LATER TONIGHT AND WEDNESDAY MORNING...NOW BRINGING IT THROUGH OUR AREA BY LATE IN THE MORNING. THUS...WILL BRING CLOUDS BACK IN A LITTLE FASTER TONIGHT BUT WITH DIURNAL TIMING A LITTLE LESS FAVORABLE...WILL BACK OFF ON CB MENTION AND JUST ALLOW FOR A VCSH FOR A FEW HOURS AROUND FRONTAL PASSAGE. OUTLOOK...TSTMS POSSIBLE THURSDAY NIGHT AND FRIDAY. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...NONE. KY...NONE. IN...NONE. &&
