The episode as NWS ILN wrote it up.
Periods of showers and thunderstorms occurred along a warm front across the region. Heavy rainfall from these storms produced flooding during the mid day. One isolated storm produced sub severe hail.
The local office's own words before the first event, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.
NWS Wilmington, OH wrote its last area forecast discussion before the first event at Apr 3, 8:46 AM EST, 3 hours 53 minutes earlier.
AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
946 AM EDT THU APR 3 2014
.SYNOPSIS...
A WARM FRONT WILL MOVE NORTH THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY TODAY...WITH
PERIODS OF SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS EXPECTED TO OCCUR. A COLD FRONT
WILL THEN MOVE THROUGH THE REGION ON FRIDAY MORNING. DRY HIGH
PRESSURE WILL SETTLE IN BEHIND THE FRONT FOR THE WEEKEND. ANOTHER
LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BRING RAIN TO THE AREA ON MONDAY.
&&
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
MCV IN ILLINOIS WILL LIFT EAST NORTHEAST THROUGH THE DAY. THIS HAS
DEVELOPED A PSEUDO-WARM FRONT/COLD FRONT STRUCTURE TO
PRECIPITATION PATTERN. SO WARM FRONT-TYPE SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED
THUNDERSTORMS CONTINUE TO SPREAD ACROSS THE FORECAST AREA. APPEARS
THAT THERE COULD BE A BRIEF LULL IN ACTIVITY...ESPECIALLY IN THE
SOUTHERN COUNTIES...BEFORE THE COLD FRONT-TYPE LINE OF SHOWERS
AND STORMS MOVES ACROSS THE AREA DURING THE AFTERNOON.
EXPECT THIS SECOND LINE OF SHOWERS AND STORMS TO EVENTUALLY LAY
OUT IN MORE OF A EAST-WEST FASHION ALONG/NORTH OF THE ACTUAL WARM
FRONT. HIGHER RESOLUTION GUIDANCE HAS BEEN INDICATING THAT A WEAK
WAVE WILL MOVE ALONG THE BOUNDARY AND CROSS THE FORECAST AREA IN
THE MID TO LATE AFTERNOON. THIS COULD ENHANCE STORMS ESPECIALLY IF
SUFFICIENT INSTABILITY CAN BE TAPPED. WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED TO
SEE SOME ROTATING STORMS IN COUNTIES CLOSE TO THE OHIO RIVER. THIS
WILL BRING A THREAT OF SEVERE WEATHER WITH DAMAGING WINDS BEING
MORE LIKELY ALTHOUGH HAIL AND TORNADOES WILL ALSO BE WITHIN THE
REALM OF POSSIBILITY.
IN ADDITION TO THE SEVERE THREAT...THERE IS CONCERN WITH SHORT-
FUSED FLOODING. RAINFALL FROM YESTERDAY INTO THE OVERNIGHT HAS
RESULTED IN LOWERED FLASH FLOOD GUIDANCE ACROSS MUCH OF THE
WESTERN FORECAST AREA. REPEATED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL
BRING MODERATE TO LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL. HAVE OPTED TO EXPAND THE
FLOOD WATCH TO INCLUDE WEST CENTRAL OHIO AND NORTHERN KENTUCKY.
&&
.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY/...
ALL SIGNS POINT TO A BREAK IN HEAVY PRECIPITATION BY MID-EVENING
ACROSS THE ILN FORECAST AREA...AS THE WARM FRONT FINALLY MAKES ITS
BIG PUSH TO THE NORTH...AND THE WAVE ALONG IT MOVES OFF INTO
PENNSYLVANIA. SURFACE LOW PRESSURE OVER NORTHERN MISSOURI THIS
EVENING WILL MOVE NORTHEAST INTO WISCONSIN BY FRIDAY
MORNING...WITH A COLD FRONT EXTENDING SOUTH TO NEAR THE GULF
COAST. SPC HAS ISSUED A DAY 1 MODERATE RISK FOR A PORTION OF THE
MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI VALLEY...EXTENDING INTO THE LOWER OHIO VALLEY
REGION AS WELL.
CONVECTION ALONG THE FRONT...OR A PRE-FRONTAL TROUGH...IS
FORECAST TO EVENTUALLY EXTEND A DECENT DISTANCE OUT AHEAD OF THIS
SYSTEM. MOST OF THE QPF/SIM-RADAR DEPICTIONS OVER THE MIDDLE OHIO
VALLEY BY EARLY FRIDAY MORNING APPEAR RATHER DISORGANIZED...AT
LEAST IN TERMS OF STORM MODE. THE EASIEST THING TO DO WHEN LOOKING
AT THIS SETUP WOULD BE TO EXPECT ANOTHER QLCS OR SERIES OF LINE
SEGMENTS...CAPABLE OF A WIND THREAT ALONG WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF
WEAK TORNADOES. THAT COULD VERY WELL HAPPEN...BUT THE NUANCES WITH
THE JUXTAPOSITION OF FORCING AND STORM LOCATION DO NOT SEEM TO
SUGGEST THAT THIS EVENT WILL BE OF A HIGHER-END NATURE. IN
FACT...ALTHOUGH SHEAR IS CERTAINLY STRONG...IT IS NOT NEARLY AS
IMPRESSIVE AS SOME OF THE COLD-SEASON QLCS EVENTS FROM THE PAST
FEW MONTHS. THE LOW-LEVEL JET FEEDING INTO THE SYSTEM PEAKS OUT AT
AROUND 40-50 KNOTS...WHICH IS RESPECTABLE BUT NOT EXTREME.
INSTABILITY DOES APPEAR TO BE A SOLID SEVERAL-HUNDRED J/KG. AN
INTERESTING SCENARIO DEPICTED ON THE ARW AND NMM RUNS ALLOWS THE
EARLY MORNING CONVECTION TO WEAKEN AS IT PUSHES THROUGH THE
AREA...WITH ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT RIGHT ON THE FRONT EARLY FRIDAY
AFTERNOON. THERE WILL LIKELY BE SOME TRUTH TO THE FACT THAT STORMS
WILL BE WEAKENING AS THEY MOVE INTO THE MIDDLE OHIO VALLEY...AS
THEY OUTRUN THE FRONTAL FORCING AND GET INTO THE DIURNAL MINIMUM
IN TIMING. NOT MUCH ELSE CAN BE GLEANED FROM THIS SET OF MODEL
RUNS. ULTIMATELY...WHILE SOME SEVERE-THREAT COLD FRONTAL PASSAGES
ARE MODELED WITH PRECISION IN ADVANCE...THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE
CASES.
NON-DIURNAL TEMPERATURES WERE RUN FROM THURSDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH
FRIDAY NIGHT. IT LOOKS LIKE THE BIGGEST NOCTURNAL INCREASE IN
TEMPERATURES WILL COME AFTER 06Z EARLY FRIDAY MORNING IN THE
NORTHERN CWA...WITH THE COLD FRONT CAUSING AN EARLY DECREASE IN
TEMPS ON FRIDAY IN THE WESTERN HALF OF THE FORECAST AREA.
THE STRONGEST SYNOPTIC WINDS ON FRIDAY APPEAR TO BE BEHIND THE
FRONTAL PASSAGE...AS WIND FLOW SHIFTS TO THE SOUTHWEST. A
WELL-MIXED POST-FRONTAL ENVIRONMENT WILL SUPPORT GUSTS OF 35-45
MPH...CERTAINLY WORTH MENTIONING IN THE HWO AS ITS OWN THREAT. THE
WINDS ARE NOT EXPECTED TO SUBSIDE QUICKLY ON FRIDAY
NIGHT...WITH SOME GUSTS LASTING EVEN INTO SATURDAY...ESPECIALLY IN
THE NORTHERN CWA. WINDS LATE SATURDAY WILL DIMINISH
QUICKLY...HOWEVER...AS HIGH PRESSURE CENTERS ITSELF OVER THE REGION.
&&
.LONG TERM /SATURDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A LARGE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE WILL BRING DRY WEATHER SATURDAY INTO
SUNDAY. LOW PRESSURE WILL LIFT NORTHEAST OUT OF TEXAS SUNDAY NIGHT
AND CROSS THE OHIO VALLEY ON MONDAY...OVERSPREADING RAIN. EXPECT
THUNDERSTORMS TO OCCUR DURING THE DAY MONDAY AND THEN TURN OFF FROM
SW-NE IN FAVOR OF PLAIN SHOWERS. THIS IS HAPPENING AS THE SUPPORT OF
THE UPPER LOW TRIGGERING THESE STRONGER STORMS CROSSES. IN THE WAKE
OF THIS UPPER LOW...A BROAD UPPER LEVEL TROUGH WILL BE FOUND OVER
THE REGION THROUGH MID WEEK. THIS WILL KEEP SKY COVER ON THE CLOUDY
SIDE AND HOLD TEMPERATURES IN THE 50S FOR MOST AREAS...BELOW
CLIMATOLOGICAL NORMS.
MODELS ARE A LITTLE SPLOTCHY IN PUTTING SHOWERS OVER THE REGION
TUESDAY UNDERNEATH THE UPPER TROUGH...BUT HAVE LITTLE SUPPORT IN THE
LOWER LEVELS FOR SUCH FEATURES. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDING BACK IN
TUESDAY NIGHT WILL KEEP A COOL NORTH FLOW OVER THE REGION EARLY AND
THEN LET WARMER AIR WORK IN THE LATTER PART OF NEXT WEEK.
OVERNIGHT LOWS THROUGH THIS TIME WILL BE IN THE 30S TO LOWER
40S...AGAIN BELOW THE CLIMATOLOGICAL NORMS.
&&
.AVIATION /14Z THURSDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
A WARM FRONT SOUTH OF THE REGION WILL LIFT NORTHEAST INTO OUR
AREA TODAY. THIS BOUNDARY WILL INTERACT WITH EMBEDDED UPPER LEVEL
DISTURBANCES AND A DECENT LOW LEVEL JET TO PRODUCE WIDESPREAD
SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS. THE AIRMASS ASSOCIATED WITH THE WARM
FRONT IS VERY MOIST AND AS SUCH POCKETS OF HEAVY RAIN CAN BE
EXPECTED...ESPECIALLY WITH THUNDERSTORMS. CEILINGS WILL LOWER INTO
THE MVFR/IFR CATEGORY TODAY WITH MVFR/IFR VISIBILITIES ALSO
OCCURRING. BY LATE THIS AFTERNOON...THE DISTURBANCES WILL EXIT
EAST AND PRECIPITATION WILL WANE. CEILINGS MAY EVENTUALLY LIFT TO
VFR ACROSS THE SOUTHERN TAF SITES BY EVENING OR EARLY FRIDAY
MORNING AS THIS AREA WILL BE WARM SECTORED. FARTHER
NORTH...CEILINGS WILL LIKELY LINGER INTO THE IFR CATEGORY UNTIL
THE WARM FRONT CAN LIFT NORTH OVERNIGHT AS DEEPENING LOW PRESSURE
AND A STRONG COLD FRONT MOVE INTO THE REGION FROM THE WEST.
SHOWERS AND EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED IN A ZONE OF
PREFRONTAL CONVERGENCE ACROSS THE TAF SITES BETWEEN 09Z AND 12Z.
OUTLOOK...THUNDERSTORMS LIKELY FRIDAY MORNING. WIND GUSTS GREATER
THAN 35 KT LIKELY FRIDAY. MVFR CEILINGS EXPECTED FRIDAY AFTERNOON
INTO EARLY SATURDAY MORNING. MVFR/IFR CEILINGS AND VISIBILITIES
POSSIBLE MONDAY ALONG WITH A CHANCE OF THUNDERSTORMS.
