AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLEVELAND OH
1027 PM EDT THU OCT 31 2013
.SYNOPSIS...
LOW PRESSURE OVER LOWER MICHIGAN WILL DEEPEN IT TRACKS INTO
ONTARIO OVERNIGHT. THIS SYSTEM WILL PULL A STRONG COLD FRONT EAST
ACROSS THE AREA LATER TONIGHT. A SECONDARY COLD FRONT WILL MOVE
ACROSS THE EASTERN GREAT LAKES EARLY SATURDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM FRIDAY MORNING/...
SOME 50+ KNOT GUSTS HAVE DEVELOPED OVER CENTRAL INDIANA WITH THE
LINE OF SHOWERS. SPC WANTED TO GO WITH A WATCH IN CASE THE WIND
GUSTS SPREAD NORTHEAST WHICH CAN HAPPEN IN THIS TYPE OF SITUATION
AS THE SURFACE LOW DEEPENS AND WE ARE UNDER THE LOW LEVEL JET. WILL
HAVE TO WATCH FOR THE DAMAGING WINDS. DAMAGING GUSTS MAY REMAIN
VERY LOCALIZED. IT IS POLICY TO ISSUE SEVERE THUNDERSTORM
WARNINGS FOR CONVECTIVE SHOWERS THAT HAVE DAMAGING WINDS EVEN IF
THERE IS NOT LIGHTNING AND THUNDER AT THE TIME.
EVENING DISCUSSION...
THE BRIEF LULL IN THE SHOWERS IS FILLING BACK IN AGAIN AS STRONG
UPWARD MOTION CONTINUES TO PRECEDE THE COLD FRONT AND TROUGH
ALOFT. THE DEEP LAYER OF MOISTURE...DTX AND ILN SOUNDINGS ARE
SATURATED TO 500 MB...CONTINUES TO PRODUCE SHOWERS AND IS
INHIBITING THE FULL MIXING OF THE WIND TO THE SURFACE. THE CLE VWP
SHOWING 60 KNOTS AT 3K AND ILN SHOWING 70 KNOTS AT 3K. IT SEEMS
THE COLD FRONT WILL BE THE ONLY MECHANISM TO POTENTIALLY MIX DOWN
THE WIND ALL OF THE WAY TO THE SURFACE. TSTORM DEVELOPMENT THIS
EVENING HAS BEEN CONFINED TO THE OHIO VALLEY AND SOUTH...THE ONLY
AREAS SHOWING ANY SURFACE BASED CAPE. IF WE HAVE THUNDER THIS FAR
NORTH IT WILL PROBABLY BE BASED ON ELEVATED CAPE. THE FRONT SHOULD
PASS THROUGH TOLEDO SHORTLY AFTER MIDNIGHT...CLEVELAND ABOUT 230
AM AND NW PENNSYLVANIA 4-430 AM.
TEMPS WILL RISE INTO THE LOWER...PERHAPS THE MID 60S AHEAD OF THE
FRONT. THEN DROP BACK INTO THE 50S AFTER FROPA...PROBABLY SOME
UPPER 40S FOR NW OHIO BY DAYBREAK.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 AM FRIDAY MORNING THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
PRECIPITATION WILL BE JUST ABOUT EAST OF THE AREA BY 12Z WITH A FAIR
AMOUNT OF SUBSIDENCE AND CLEARING SKIES. WINDS WILL REMAIN GUSTY FOR
A FEW HOURS WITH GUSTS TO 35 MPH POSSIBLE. WE WILL ESPECIALLY NEED
TO WATCH WINDS ALONG THE LAKE SHORE IN CUYAHOGA AND LAKE COUNTIES
AND WIND ADVISORY MAY NEED TO BE EXTENDED IF WINDS STAY UP.
STATOCU WILL FILL BACK IN DURING THE AFTERNOON.
ANOTHER TROUGH WILL MOVE ACROSS THE LAKE ON FRIDAY NIGHT AND PULL A
SECONDARY COLD FRONT ACROSS THE AREA ON SATURDAY. SCATTERED SHOWERS
WILL DEVELOP...WITH GREATER COVERAGE DOWNWIND OF LAKE ERIE IN NE
OH/NW PA. DRIER AIR WILL START TO ARRIVE BY SUNDAY AS THE RIDGE
BUILDS ALOFT. LOW LEVEL FLOW WILL REMAIN OUT OF THE NORTH AND
LIMIT HIGHS TO THE 40S ON SUNDAY.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE OFF THE NEW ENGLAND COAST BY MONDAY AS THE
NEXT STRONG SYSTEM BEGINS TO TAKE SHAPE ACROSS THE PLAINS. THIS
STORM SYSTEM WILL TAKE ITS TIME MOVING EASTWARD ALLOWING THE REGION
TO WARM INTO WEDNESDAY. MOST LOCATIONS ON WEDNESDAY WILL BE INTO THE
60S. RAIN CHANCES LOOK LIKE THEY MAY INCREASE LATE TUESDAY NIGHT
ACROSS THE WEST BUT THE BETTER CHANCES LOOK TO BE WEDNESDAY INTO
THURSDAY.
&&
.AVIATION /00Z FRIDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
COLD FRONT CURRENTLY IN THE VICINITY OF CHICAGO AND MOVING EAST.
RAIN SHOWERS AHEAD OF THE FRONT WILL RESTRICT VISIBILITY AT TIMES
AT ALL TERMINALS...HOWEVER BREAKS IN THE SHOWERS ARE BECOMING MORE
APPARENT OVER THE PAST FEW HOURS. FRONTAL PASSAGE WILL BEGIN IN TOLEDO
AROUND 04Z AND THEN MOVE EAST ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA...REACHING
ERIE BY 07Z. SO FAR THIS EVENING ALL SITES HAVE EXPERIENCED GUSTS
AROUND 30 KNOTS. THE WIND WILL REMAIN GUSTY THROUGH MOST OF THE
OVERNIGHT AND THROUGHOUT THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY TOMORROW. MVFR
CEILINGS WILL PERSIST AHEAD AND BEHIND THE FRONT. MINIMAL VFR
CEILINGS RETURN AROUND DAYBREAK TOMORROW AT ALL TERMINALS.
OUTLOOK...MVFR CEILINGS LIKELY FRIDAY NIGHT AND SATURDAY.
&&
.MARINE...
SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL INCREASE THROUGH THE EVENING...ESPECIALLY AFTER
00Z ACROSS THE WEST AS A COLD FRONT MOVES CLOSER TO LAKE ERIE. AS
THE COLD FRONT MOVES EASTWARD ACROSS THE LAKE OVERNIGHT WINDS WILL
SHIFT TO THE SOUTHWEST AND INCREASE SIGNIFICANTLY. WE HAVE DELAYED
THE ONSET OF THE GALE WARNING BY A COUPLE HOURS WITH IT STARTING AT
00Z ACROSS THE WEST AND 02Z ACROSS THE EAST. AS THE COLD ADVECTION
ARRIVES OVERNIGHT THE WINDS WILL INCREASE TO 40 TO MAYBE 45 KNOTS.
THIS STRONG GALE WILL NOT DECREASE ACROSS THE EAST UNTIL FRIDAY
AFTERNOON. SINCE WE ARE EXPECTING THE STRONG GALES THE WATER LEVELS
ACROSS THE WESTERN BASIN WILL DECREASE. AT THIS POINT IT APPEARS WE
WILL DROP TO 3 TO 4 FEET BELOW CRITICAL LEVELS. HAVE ENDED THE LOW
WATER ADVISORY WITH THE GALE FRIDAY AFTERNOON.
ANOTHER TROUGH WILL CROSS LAKE ERIE ON SATURDAY WITH WINDS
INCREASING OUT OF THE NW. WE ARE CERTAIN THAT SMALL CRAFT CONDITIONS
WILL PERSIST FROM FRIDAY NIGHT INTO SATURDAY NIGHT. CALMER
CONDITIONS SHOULD RETURN BY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL
INCREASE ON MONDAY.
