AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
1125 AM EDT MON AUG 6 2007

.SYNOPSIS...
HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD ACROSS THE REGION
AS HIGH PRESSURE EXTENDS FROM THE SOUTHEAST U.S. INTO THE OHIO
VALLEY. AN EAST-WEST ORIENTED FRONT WILL MEANDER BACK AND FORTH
ACROSS THE LOWER GREAT LAKES AND UPPER OHIO VALLEY FOR THE FIRST
HALF OF THE WEEK KEEPING A CHANCE OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS IN
THE AREA.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
WEAK TROUGH/FRONTAL BOUNDARY ACROSS CNTRL CWA LEADING TO VERY
ISOLATED SHRA/TSRA...MOSTLY ACROSS THE SERN CWA. DEBRIS CLOUD COVER
FROM THIS ACTIVITY CONTINUES TO SPREAD SOUTHEAST ACROSS FAR SRN OH
AND NRN KY. BECAUSE OF THE CLOUDS...HAVE DROPPED TEMPS A COUPLE OF
DEGREES ACROSS THE SOUTH. HOWEVER...WITH DEWPOINTS IN THE LOWER
70S...SHOULD STILL SEE HEAT INDICIES APPROACH ADVISORY CRITERIA
LATER THIS AFTERNOON. HAVE UPGRADED TO INCLUDE MONTGOMERY COUNTY
IN THE EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING...SINCE LOCAL POLICY IS TO INCLUDE
THEM IN A WARNING FOR 2 OR MORE DAYS OF 100+ HEAT INDICIES. THOUGH
THE DAYTON AIRPORT PROBABLY WONT REACH THIS HOT TODAY...MORE
URBANIZED PORTIONS OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY WILL LIKELY MEET OR EXCEED
THE 100 HEAT INDEX THRESHOLD. MAINTAINED SLIGHT CHANCE POPS
ACROSS THE SRN 2/3 OF THE CWA DUE TO THE WEAK BOUNDARY IN THE
AREA. NAM FORECAST SOUNDINGS SHOW DELTA THETA-E OF -50 THIS
AFTERNOON...SO WILL MONITOR DAMAGING DOWNBURST POTENTIAL WITH ANY
STORMS THAT DEVELOP LATER ON.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
APPEARS THAT MOST OF THE REGION WILL BE IN A LULL OVERNIGHT
ALTHOUGH A FEW SHOWERS AND STORMS ARE NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION IN
THE NORTHWEST COUNTIES CLOSER TO A ZONE OF WARM ADVECTION. A
SERIES OF UPPER AIR DISTURBANCES WILL MOVE ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES
ON TUESDAY AND TUESDAY NIGHT RESULTING IN SHOWERS AND
THUNDERSTORMS. THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF THIS ACTIVITY IS EXPECTED TO
AFFECT THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA. CAPPING SHOULD KEEP
THE SOUTHERN ZONES DRY DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. IN THE WAKE OF
THESE UPPER AIR DISTURBANCES A WEAK BOUNDARY WILL PUSH INTO THE
FORECAST AREA ON WEDNESDAY. SO WENT WITH SLIGHT CHANCE POPS
ALTHOUGH CAPPING MAY RESULT IN A DRY DAY ACROSS THE ENTIRE REGION.

OVERNIGHT LOWS WILL REMAIN IN THE 70S WITH A MOS CONSENSUS
GENERALLY PREFERRED. HIGHS ON TUESDAY ARE A BIT TRICKY. MOST MODEL
GUIDANCE IS SHOWING A THERMAL TROUGH IN THE LOW LEVELS ACROSS THE
AREA. SO KEPT HIGHS ABOUT THE SAME AS TODAY IN THE NORTH BUT ALLOWED
FOR SOME SLIGHTLY HIGHER READINGS IN THE SOUTHERN ZONES. ADDED
ANOTHER DEGREE OR TWO FOR WEDNESDAYS HIGHS EXCEPT IN CENTRAL OHIO.

FORECAST CONDITIONS RESULT IN HEAT INDEX VALUES OF 100 TO 105
AGAIN ON TUESDAY ACROSS THE SOUTHERN ZONES. SO EXTENDED THE HEAT
ADVISORY OUT THROUGH THAT TIME. AND DUE TO LOCAL POLICY THIS
NECESSITATED THE EXCESSIVE HEAT WARNING FOR HAMILTON COUNTY. IT IS
POSSIBLE THAT THE HEAT INDEX WILL BE EVEN HIGHER ON WEDNESDAY. BUT
CONFIDENCE IN DEW POINT FORECASTS THAT FAR OUT IN TIME IS NOT
VERY HIGH.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
FOR THE PERIOD THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY...A MORE BONA FIDE S/WV
AND ASSOCD COLD FRONT WILL APCH THE REGION FROM THE WEST LATE
THURSDAY...MOVING ACRS THE FCST AREA ON FRIDAY. FOR NOW...BELIEVE
AREA WILL BE MOSTLY WARM SECTORED ON THURSDAY AND MAINLY CAPPED
WITH VERY WARM TEMPERATURES ALOFT. HENCE...HAVE GONE DRY ON
THURSDAY...WITH A CHC OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS THURSDAY NIGHT
INTO FRIDAY AS THE COLD FRONT CROSSES THE REGION. THURSDAY MAY END
UP BEING THE WARMEST DAY OF THE WEEK...AND PERHAPS FOR THE
SUMMER... AS HIGHS WILL RANGE FROM THE MID 90S NORTH TO AROUND 100
DEGREES ALONG AND SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER VALLEY.

THE UPR LVL PATTERN WILL UNDERGO A SHIFT BY THIS WEEKEND.
AFOREMENTIONED S/WV AND COLD FRONT WILL ASSIST IN CARVING OUT A MID
LVL TROF OVER NEW ENGLAND.  THIS WILL IN EFFECT CAUSE THE MID LVL
HIGH OVER THE TN RIVER VLY TO RETROGRADE BACK TO THE WEST TOWARD THE
CENTRAL PLAINS.  THE RESULT FOR OUR AREA WILL BE DRY WX...COOLER
TEMPS AND LOWER DEWPOINTS.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A WARM FRONT HAD LIFTED NORTH OF THE TERMINALS WITH LIGHT SW
FLOW. MVFR HZ/BR WILL PERSIST IN SPOTS THROUGH 13Z-15Z.

SCATTERED SHOWERS AND PERHAPS THUNDER WILL AFFECT THE TERMINALS
EXCEPTING KCMH...KDAY AND KLCK THROUGH 14Z.

AS INSTABILITY BUILDS THIS AFTERNOON...ISOLATED STORMS SEEM
