NWS Wilmington, OH wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Jun 19, 12:51 PM EST, 48 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH 151 PM EDT TUE JUN 19 2007 .SYNOPSIS... A FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL PUSH ACROSS THE GREAT LAKES AND OHIO VALLEY REGION TODAY. SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED ALONG AND AHEAD OF THIS FRONT. HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD INTO THE REGION TONIGHT...BRINGING DRIER AND SOMEWHAT COOLER AIR TO THE AREA. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/... CDFNT IS OVR IL ATTM WITH A LITTLE PREFRONTAL TROF INTO INDIANA. AREA OF SHRA WITH EMBEDDED TS IS MOVING E THRU INDIANA. MODELS ARE INDICATING THAT AN AREA OF CONVERGENCE AHEAD OF FRONT WILL KEEP POPS UP THIS AFTN. LOOKING AT RADAR STRUCTURE THERE APPEARS TO BE A LULL IN CNTRL IN...AND AM CONCERNED THAT IT MIGHT NOT FILL IN. WASNT CONFIDENT ENUF TO LOWER POPS HOWEVER. WILL KEEP FORECAST AS IS FOR NOW...SO NO ZFP UPDATE THIS MRNG. SITES && .SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/... THE FRONTAL SYSTEM SHOULD BE EXITING THE AREA TO OUR EAST- SOUTHEAST AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS PERIOD. HIGH PRESSURE WILL THEN BUILD IN FROM THE WEST...ALLOWING DRIER AND SOMEWHAT COOLER CONDITIONS TO DOMINATE OUR WEATHER INTO THURSDAY. MODELS HAVE BEEN TRENDING TOWARD DROPPING A WEAKENING FRONT INTO OUR FORECAST AREA ON THURSDAY. WITH SOME BOUNDARY LAYER CONVERGENCE AND AN AXIS OF MODERATE INSTABILITY TAKING SHAPE...FELT IT APPROPRIATE TO ADD A SLIGHT CHANCE OF POPS FOR THURSDAY. AT THE CURRENT TIME...HAVE KEPT THIS CHANCE ACROSS THE NORTHERN HALF OF THE AREA. && .LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/... UPR LVL FLO WILL AMPLIFY ACRS CONUS BY LATE WEEK AS STRONG RIDGE BUILDS OVER THE CNTRL/HIGH PLAINS AND BEGINS TO BUILDS EAST TOWARDS REGION. PLACEMENT AND STRENGTH OF RIDGE WILL PLAY A MAJOR ROLE IN TEMPS AND PCPN CHANCES FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED PERIOD FROM FRI ON. MODEL CONSENSUS IN GOOD AGREEMENT IN BRINGING A S/WV AROUND THE TOP OF THE RIDGE THRU THE UPR MISSISSIPPI VLY FRI...AND DROPPING SE INTO OH VLY FOR LATE FRI NIGHT/SAT. THIS PATTERN SUGGESTS POTENTIAL MCS TRACKING FROM NRN PLAINS ERLY FRI SE INTO FCST AREA FOR SAT. SINCE THIS IS STILL 4-5 DAYS AWAY AT THIS POINT...WILL INTRODUCE 30 POPS FOR FRI NIGHT/SAT FOR ENTIRE FCST AREA. MORE DETAIL AND HIGHER POPS WILL BE ADDED OVER THE NEXT SVRL DAYS. WX PATTERN THEN BECOMES HIGHLY UNCERTAIN FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE WEEKEND INTO ERLY NEXT WEEK...AND AS MENTIONED ABV BECOMES DEPENDENT ON STRENGTH AND LOCATION OF THE RIDGE. AT THIS POINT APPEARS TWO POSSIBLE SCENARIOS SET UP FOR SUN/MON. THE FIRST POSSIBILITY IS THAT FCST AREA REMAINS ON THE PERIPHERY OF THE RIDGE WITH CORE OF THE HIGHEST HGTS FOCUSED ACRS THE MID MISSISSIPPI VLY. THIS WOULD OPEN THE REGION TO POTENTIAL MCS ACTIVITY (RIDGE RIDERS) AROUND THE RIDGE IN NW FLO. SECOND POSSIBLE SCENARIO IS THAT THE RIDGE CONTINUES TO BUILD INTO OH VLY FOR ERLY NEXT WEEK...RESULTING IN ANY MCS ACTIVITY BEING SHIFTED NORTH INTO GRT LKS REGION AND LEAVING FCST AREA WITH DRY WX AND INCREASINGLY HOT AND HAZY CONDITIONS. AN OUTSIDE THIRD POSSIBILITY WOULD BE A COMBINATION OF THE TWO ABV SCENARIOS WITH MCS ACTIVITY AFFECTING NRN PORTIONS OF FCST AREA...WHILE FURTHER SOUTH IT REMAINS HOT AND DRY UNDER RIDGE. MAJORITY OF THE EXTENDED MODELS ARE FAVORING AN EXPANSION OF THE UPR RIDGE INTO THE REGION BY ERLY NEXT WEEK. THAT COMBINED WITH ANTECEDENT DRY CONDITIONS OVER THE LAST 2-3 MONTHS SUPPORTS TRENDING TOWARDS SCENARIO #2...WITH DRY AND INCREASINGLY HOT WX. HAVE MAINTAINED 20 POPS ON SUN AND ACRS THE NORTH AGAIN ON MON WITH STILL PLENTY OF UNCERTAINTY IN HOW FAR NORTH MCS ACTIVITY WOULD BE DISPLACED AROUND PERIPHERY OF RIDGE. STRENGTH OF THE RIDGE REMAINS IN QUESTION...WITH 12Z OP GFS MOST AGGRESSIVE IN BRINGING 500MB HGTS TO NEAR 5980M AND 850 TEMPS TO 21-22C IN SRN FCST AREA. HAVE LEANED TOWARDS CONSENSUS SOLN WHICH IS NOT AS ROBUST IN RAISING MID LVL HGTS INTO OH VLY BY ERLY NEXT WEEK. MORE TEMPERED SOLN STILL SUPPORTS A BUMP UP IN AFTN HIGHS TO L90S FOR SUN/MON. IF ANYTHING CLOSE TO 12Z OP GFS SOLN VERIFIES WITH REGARDS TO THERMAL FIELDS...M90S TO U90S WOULD NOT BE OUT OF THE QUESTION. && .AVIATION /18Z 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. &&
