AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH
642 AM EST SAT FEB 14 2015
.SYNOPSIS...
A REINFORCING SHOT OF COLD AIR WILL MOVE IN BEHIND A COLD FRONT
TODAY. THIS ARCTIC AIRMASS WILL OFFER WIDESPREAD SNOW SHOWERS AND
SNOW SQUALLS ALONG WITH STRONG WINDS. THE COMBINATION OF COLD AIR
AND GUSTY WINDS WILL CREATE SUBZERO WIND CHILLS FROM THIS EVENING
THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING. ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE WILL BUILD IN ON SUNDAY
OFFERING DRY WEATHER BUT VERY COLD TEMPERATURES. TEMPERATURES WILL
WARM SLIGHTLY INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK...BUT WILL REMAIN BE BELOW NORMAL.
&&
.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
DIGGING S/W TROF TO DROP SE FROM CENTRAL CANADA THRU THE GREAT LAKES
TODAY. ANOTHER ARCTIC COLD FRONT TO DROP SOUTH THRU ILN/S FA SOUTH
OF THE OHIO RIVER BY 18Z. 8H TEMPERATURES DROP TO BETWEEN -22 TO -24
DEG C BY 00Z SUNDAY. IN STRONG LOW LEVEL CAA...LOW LEVEL LAPSE RATES
STEEPEN ALLOWING INSTBY TO DEVELOP. SFC LOW AND UPPER LEVEL JET ARE
STRONGER AND THEREFORE THE STRENGTH OF CAA IS STRONGER THAN THE WED
NIGHT/THURS SYSTEM. EXPECT WIDESPREAD SNOW SHOWERS TO DEVELOP IN THE
COLD AIR WITH MOST LOCATIONS RECEIVING AN INCH OR LESS. LOCALLY UP
TO 2 INCHES WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH THE HIGHEST TOTALS OVER THE NE
WHERE CAA IS STRONGEST. BTV SNOW SQUALL PARAMETER SUGGESTS THAT THE
POTENTIAL FOR HEAVY SNOW SHOWERS AND RAPIDLY CHANGING CONDITIONS
WITH REDUCED VSBYS AND QUICK SNOW ACCUMULATIONS WILL BE PSBL IN THE
CONVECTION SNOW SHOWERS THIS AFTN.
MIXING TECHNIQUE APPLIED TO FCST SOUNDINGS YIELDS WIND GUSTS UP TO
36 KTS. WIND FIELDS ON GFS ARE STRONGER THAN NAM AND HAVE TRENDED
A LTL STRONGER IN THE FCST BUT GENERALLY SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE. WILL
CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT THESE STRONG WINDS AND SNOW SQUALLS IN THE
HWO AND SPS PRODUCTS. EXPECT FALLING TEMPERATURES IN THE STRONG
CAA WITH READINGS BY LATE AFTN FROM THE LOWER TEENS NW TO AROUND
20 SE. THESE VERY COLD TEMPERATURES COMBINED WITH STRONG WINDS
WILL RESULT IN WIND CHILLS BELOW ZERO. HAVE ISSUED WIND CHILL
ADVISORIES OVERNIGHT INTO SUNDAY FOR ALL BUT THE FAR SW COUNTIES...
WHERE WIND CHILLS STAY ABOVE 10 BELOW.
SYSTEM SNOW SHOWERS TO COME TO AN END BUT FAVORABLE FETCH OFF LAKE
MICHIGAN WILL LEAD TO SNOW SHOWERS OFF INTO THE WHITEWATER/MIAMI
VALLEYS. ALL PCPN TO COME TO AN END OVER TONIGHT WITH H8 TEMPS OF
-23 TO -26 DEG C SETTLING INTO THE STATE. VERY COLD LOWS RANGING
FROM AROUND 5 BELOW ACRS THE NORTH TO AROUND 5 ABOVE FAR SOUTH.
WIND CHILL VALUES AS COLD AS 24 BELOW NORTH AND 5 TO 10 BELOW FAR
SOUTH.
&&
.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
ARCTIC HIGH PRESSURE TO BUILD IN SUNDAY/SUNDAY NIGHT. EXPECT A
VERY COLD DAY WITH HIGHS RANGING FROM THE SINGLE DIGITS NORTH TO
THE MID TEENS SOUTH. NEW RECORD LOW MAX TEMPS FOR SUNDAY MAY FALL.
THE CURRENT RECORDS ARE 12/CMH IN 1920...11/DAY IN 1920 AND 13/CVG
ALSO IN 1920.
MID AND HIGH LEVEL CLOUDS TO INCREASE LATE SUNDAY NIGHT INTO
MONDAY. CONTINUED COLD TEMPERATURES SUNDAY NIGHT WITH LOWS FROM 5
BELOW NORTH TO AROUND 5 ABOVE SOUTH. WITH HIGH PRESSURE OVERHEAD...
WINDS WILL DIMINISH AND WILL NOT BE A FACTOR. THEREFORE...HAVE
ALLOWED THE WIND CHILL ADVISORIES TO END DURG THE DAY SUNDAY.
PRECIPITATION FROM NEXT SYSTEM LOOKS TO STAY SOUTH OF ILN/S FA
MONDAY. THERE WILL BE SOME MODERATION TO TEMPS WITH HIGHS FROM THE
MID TEENS NORTH TO THE MID 20S SOUTH.
&&
.LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A SFC LOW CROSSING THROUGH THE GREAT LAKES ON TUESDAY WILL SEE A
COLD FRONT CROSS THE REGION. EARLIER FORECASTS HAD A SOUTHERN LOW
INTERACT WITH THIS FRONT TO BRING LOW POPS TO THE REGION. LATEST
THINKING IS A QUICK EVOLUTION OF THE SOUTHERN SYSTEM THAT REMAINS
SOUTH OF OHVLY WHICH WILL HAVE ME CONTINUE TO LOWER THE CHANCE OF
PRECIP SO IT STAYS OUT OF THE FORECAST.
WHAT LITTLE WARMING TO COME OUT OF THE SOUTHERLY FLOW AHEAD OF THE
FRONT ON TUESDAY WILL SEE THE WARMEST DAY OF THE EXTENDED WITH HIGHS
IN THE UPPER 20S TO LOWER 30S...FOLLOWED BY ABOUT A 10 DEG DROP ON
WEDNESDAY.
HIGH PRESSURE IN THE MIDWEST WILL THEN EXERT A NW WIND IN THE OHIO
VALLEY TO KEEP THE RELATIVELY COLD AIRMASS IN PLACE FOR THE
REMAINDER OF THE EXTENDED FORECAST. A PASSING SNOW SHOWER DOWNSTREAM
OF LAKE MICHIGAN CANNOT BE RULED OUT FOR ANY DAY BUT SHOULD NOT BE
THE RULE FOR ANY AREA AND HAS BEEN LEFT OUT FOR NOW.
FRIDAY MAY SEE A WARMUP IF THE HIGH CAN POSITION ITSELF EAST OF THE
REGION. RIGHT NOW IT SPLITS THE MODELS AND I WAS HESITANT TO BRING A
WARM AIRMASS IN GIVEN CURRENT TRENDS. KEPT IT COLDER FOR NOW.
&&
.AVIATION /12Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
POTENT COLD FRONT WILL BRING NUMEROUS SNOW SHOWERS TO TAF SITES
STARTING AROUND 14Z AT CMH AND LCK. BASED ON LATEST MODEL TRENDS
HAVE BACKED OFF SLIGHTLY ON TIMING. EXPECT MAIN EFFECTS TO BE AT
CMH AND LCK CLOSER TO THE UPPER LOW THAT IS DRIVING THE COLD
FRONT WHERE LIFR VISIBILITIES WILL BE POSSIBLE IN SHSN BLSN. REST
OF SITES SHOULD SEE IFR...THOUGH THERE IS LOWER CONFIDENCE OF
THIS AT CVG AND LUK FARTHER FROM THE SYSTEM. AFTER SNOW SHOWERS
DIMINISH THIS EVENING...MVFR CONDITIONS WILL PERSIST THROUGH THE
END OF THE FORECAST. WIND GUSTS WELL OVER 30 KNOTS FROM THE WEST
TO NORTHWEST WILL OCCUR IN A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT SURROUNDING
THE FRONT.
OUTLOOK...MVFR CEILINGS POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY.
