DISCUSSION
KEY MESSAGE 1)
AN UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH AND SURFACE LOW MOVE THROUGH THE
OHIO VALLEY AND LOWER GREAT LAKES ON SUNDAY NIGHT INTO MONDAY
MORNING BRINGING THE CHANCE FOR LOCALLY HEAVY RAIN AND A MARGINAL
RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER.
THE LARGER CONCERN WITH THIS SYSTEM CONTINUES TO BE THE POTENTIAL
FOR FLOODING ESPECIALLY ACROSS AREAS THAT HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED
LARGE AMOUNTS OF RAINFALL FROM THE SYSTEM EARLIER THIS WEEK.
ANOMALOUSLY HIGH PWATS (1.5+ INCHES) ADVECT INTO THE OHIO VALLEY
AHEAD OF THE LOW BY SUNDAY EVENING. THE QUICKLY MOISTENING
ENVIRONMENT AND INCREASING ASCENT ALONG A WARM FRONT LIFTING INTO
THE AREA WILL LIKELY SUPPORT WIDESPREAD RAINFALL DEVELOPING SUNDAY
EVENING AND SUNDAY NIGHT. ADDITIONALLY, A STRONG NOCTURNAL LLJ MOVES
INTO THE WEST OVERNIGHT ALONG WITH INCREASING INSTABILITY (MUCAPE)
WHICH COULD ENHANCED RAINFALL RATES. SWATHS OF 1-2 INCHES OF RAIN
ARE LIKELY TO OCCUR WITH LOCALLY HIGHER AMOUNTS POSSIBLE.
A MARGINAL RISK FOR SEVERE WEATHER EXISTS AHEAD OF THE LOW ON SUNDAY
EVENING AND SUNDAY NIGHT. SHEAR PROFILES BECOME FAVORABLE, HOWEVER
AND BOUNDARY LAYER BASED INSTABILITY IS VERY LIMITED. THUS, THE
SEVERE RISK IS CONDITIONAL ON SUFFICIENT MLCAPE DEVELOPING.
THE SHOWERS AND STORMS EVENTUALLY EXIT TO THE EAST ON MONDAY WHEN
THE LOW MOVES OUT OF THE AREA.
KEY MESSAGE 2)
TEMPERATURES ARE LIKELY TO REMAIN BELOW AVERAGE THROUGH MUCH OF NEXT
WEEK AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH. THE NEXT CHANCE FOR
PRECIPITATION IS ON THURSDAY WHEN AN UPPER LEVEL SHORTWAVE TROUGH IS
FORECAST TO MOVE THROUGH THE REGION.
