Area forecast discussion, Jun 19, 2:10 PM EST, 2 hours before
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH 310 PM EDT TUE JUN 19 2007 .SYNOPSIS... A COLD FRONT WILL PUSH ACROSS THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES AND MIDDLE OHIO VALLEY REGION THROUGH EARLY EVENING. HIGH PRESSURE OVER THE CENTRAL PLAINS WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION OVERNIGHT...BRINGING DRY WEATHER. THE HIGH WILL REMAIN OVER THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL BE NEAR NORMAL ON WEDNESDAY. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING/... A COLD FRONT WAS LOCATED FROM ERN MICHIGAN THROUGH THE MIDDLE PART OF INDIANA THIS AFTN. THIS FRONT WILL PASS ACRS THE FCST AREA THROUGH EARLY EVENING. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS HAVE DEVELOPED OUT AHEAD OF THIS FRONT PER KILN RADAR AND MOSAIC RADAR. AM EXPECTING A FAIRLY RAPID DECREASE IN CONVECTION THROUGH EARLY EVENING...THEN SKIES WILL CLEAR BEHIND THE FRONT. PARTS OF THE FCST AREA REMAIN UNDER A SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WATCH 418 UNTIL 9 PM EDT. WILL MAKE A LAST MINUTE DECISION ON WHERE TO CANCEL PART OF THE WATCH FOR THE AFTN ISSUANCE. TEMPERATURES OVERNIGHT WILL COOL INTO THE MID 50S NORTH TO THE LOWER 60S SOUTH. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM WEDNESDAY MORNING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/... SHORT RANGES MODEL ARE IN FAIRLY GOOD AGREEMENT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD ACRS THE REGION ON WEDNESDAY...THEN IT WILL SHIFT SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER BY THURSDAY MORNING. A FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL DROP INTO THE GREAT LAKES REGION LATE WEDNESDAY NIGHT. JUST SOME MID AND HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS ARE FCST TO SPILL SOUTHEAST INTO THE REGION...BUT ALL IN ALL...SKIES ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN MOSTLY CLEAR THROUGH THE PERIOD. HIGHS ON WEDNESDAY WILL RANGE FROM NEAR 80 NE TO THE LOWER 80S SW. LOWS WEDNESDAY NIGHT WILL RANGE FROM THE LOWER 50S EAST TO AROUND 60 WEST. && .LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... EXTENDED PERIOD BEGINS WITH HIGH PRESSURE CENTERED OVER THE OHIO VALLEY ON THURS WITH BUILDING MID LEVEL RIDGE TO THE WEST. NAM AND GFS BOTH BRING VERY WEAK FRONT INTO NRN OH THURS AFTERNOON. BULK OF SUBSIDENCE STAYS TO OUR WEST...AND MODELS BRING INSTABILITY TO VCNTY OF THE FRONT...SO CURRENT SLIGHT CHANCE POPS IN THE FORECAST ACROSS THE NORTH LOOK REASONABLE. PATTERN SHAPING UP FOR FRI AND SAT IS FAVORABLE FOR ONE OR MORE CONVECTIVE COMPLEXES TO DEVELOP ACROSS THE NORTHERN PLAINS AND PROPAGATE ALONG THE NORTHERN PERIPHERY OF THE RIDGE INTO THE GREAT LAKES OR OHIO VALLEY. OF COURSE THIS SCENARIO INTRODUCES A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY INTO THE FORECAST...WITH CONVECTIVE COMPLEXES AND ANY LEFT OVER CONVECTIVE DEBRIS OR BOUNDARIES GREATLY INFLUENCING TEMPS AND POTENTIAL FOR CONVECTIVE REDEVELOPMENT OVER SUBSEQUENT PERIODS. FOR NOW BEST SHOT OF CONVECTION LOOKS TO BE FRI NIGHT AND SATURDAY WITH DEEPENING UPPER SHORTWAVE DIGGING INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. HOWEVER MODELS APPEAR TO BE SUFFERING FROM CONVECTIVE FEEDBACK WITH THIS SYSTEM...SO TIMING AND STRENGTH ARE UP IN THE AIR. WITH THIS MUCH UP IN THE AIR AT THIS POINT...SEE NO REASON TO STRAY FROM MOS FOR TEMPS. FRONT SHOULD PASS THROUGH SAT NIGHT OR SUNDAY...FOLLOWED BY MORE ZONAL FLOW AND INCREASING H8 TEMPS BY THE BEGINNING OF NEXT WEEK. WENT SLIGHTLY ABOVE MOS GUIDANCE FOR TEMPS MON AND TUES. HAWBLITZEL && .AVIATION /19Z TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... CONVECTION IS CONCENTRATED AHEAD OF PREFRONTAL TROF LOCATED FROM NR TOL-MIE-BMG ATTM. IT APPEARS THAT NOTHING WANTS TO FORM BETWEEN THE TROF AND THE REAL CDFNT IN NW INDIANA...THEREFORE WILL END THE PCPN WITH TROF PASSAGE. HAVE THE BACK EDGE OF THE CONVECTION TIMED TO KDAY-KCVG AROUND 19Z AND KCMH-KLCK BY 21Z. RADAR TRENDS AND OBS ARE INDICATING MVFR CONDITIONS IN THE TSTM. CIGS IMPROVE RAPIDLY BEHIND THE CONVECTION...UP TO BKN050 OR HIGHER FOR AN HOUR OR TWO...BEFORE CLEAR SKIES WORK IN. MIGHT BE SOME MVFR FOG LATE TONIGHT...BUT WITH OVERALL DRYNESS OF THE GROUND....WILL LEAVE OUT FOR NOW. NAM MODEL IS A LITTLE MORE GUNG HO WITH H8 MOISTURE TOMORROW IN THE NW FLOW. LOOKING AT SATELLITE... THIS MIGHT BE A LITTLE OVERDONE. WENT WITH FEW-SCT CU AFT 14Z. OUTLOOK...TSTM POSSIBLE SATURDAY. SITES && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...NONE. KY...NONE. IN...NONE. &&
