AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION  
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH  
343 AM EST SUN NOV 10 2024  
   
SYNOPSIS  
 
A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVING THROUGH THE REGION BRINGS SOME MUCH  
NEEDED RAIN TO THE AREA ON SUNDAY WITH BREEZY CONDITIONS. DRY  
CONDITIONS RETURN FOR THE FIRST PART OF THE WORK WEEK AS HIGH  
PRESSURE BUILDS BACK IN.  
 
 
   
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/  
 
SYNOPTICALLY, AT THE START OF THE PERIOD, AN OCCLUDING LOW  
PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BE WORKING ITS WAY JUST NORTHWEST OF THE  
REGION, WITH ITS ATTENDANT WARM FRONT, WARM SECTOR, AND COLD  
FRONT MOVING THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY ON SUNDAY. TO OUR  
SOUTHEAST, AN EXPANSIVE AREA OF HIGH PRESSURE OFF OF THE  
ATLANTIC COAST WILL CREATE A TIGHT PRESSURE GRADIENT THROUGH THE  
ILN CWA AS A LLJ IS SET UP. THIS TRANSLATES TO AN UPTICK IN  
WIND SPEEDS WITH SOUTHWESTERLY WINDS SUSTAINED AROUND 15 MPH  
GUSTING TO 25 MPH THROUGH THE DAY ON SUNDAY.  
 
AS THE WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTH THIS MORNING, ISENTROPIC LIFT ON  
THE NOSE OF THE LLJ WILL INTRODUCE WIDESPREAD RAIN SHOWERS.  
PWATS ARE AROUND 300-350% OF NORMAL, AND THEREFORE, WE'RE  
ANTICIPATING SOME EFFICIENT RAIN RATES. GUIDANCE NOW COMFORTABLY  
SUGGESTING 1-1.25" ALONG AND SOUTHEAST OF I-70, WITH AREAS  
NORTH AROUND 0.5" THROUGH THE DAY ON SUNDAY, WITH THE BULK OF  
THIS FALLING DURING THE MORNING HOURS. A RUMBLE OF THUNDER IS  
POSSIBLE THANKS TO SOME WEAK MUCAPE, BUT OTHERWISE, MOST AREAS  
WILL JUST HAVE RAIN SHOWERS.  
 
TEMPERATURES REMAIN RELATIVELY MILD, REACHING THE UPPER 50S/ LOW  
60S. ALTHOUGH, WITH THE RAIN AND WIND, IT WON'T NECESSARILY FEEL  
LIKE A MILD DAY OUTSIDE!  
 
 
   
SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH 6 PM MONDAY/  
 
THE COLD FRONT WILL BE MOVING THROUGH THE REGION AT THE START  
OF THE SHORT TERM AND PRECIPITATION WILL TAPER OFF WEST TO EAST.  
WINDS SHIFT TO OUT OF THE WEST AND GUSTS DECREASE AS WE HEAD  
INTO THE OVERNIGHT. OVERNIGHT LOW TEMPERATURES FALL INTO THE MID  
40S AS THE COLD AIR ADVECTION REGIME BEGINS.  
 
MONDAY WILL AGAIN BE BREEZY, PARTICULARLY NORTH OF I-70 WHERE  
THE PRESSURE GRADIENT REMAINS TIGHT AS THE PARENT SHORTWAVE  
MOVES THROUGH. ANTICIPATING SOME CLOUD COVER THROUGH MONDAY IN  
THE CAA, PARTICULARLY NORTH OF I-70. HIGH TEMPERATURES REACH THE  
UPPER 50S IN THE NORTH WHERE CLOUD COVER IS THICKEST, LOW 60S IN  
THE SOUTH.  
 
 
   
LONG TERM /MONDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/  
 
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTH MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY.  
SEASONABLE TEMPERATURES ARE FORECAST ALONG WITH DRY CONDITIONS. HIGH  
PRESSURE SHIFTS EAST TUESDAY NIGHT WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR SOUTHERLY  
FLOW TO REDEVELOP AND TEMPERATURES TO MODERATE THROUGH THE DAY ON  
WEDNESDAY. RAIN CHANCES INCREASE LATER ON WEDNESDAY INTO WEDNESDAY  
NIGHT WHEN THE NEXT COLD FRONT AND UPPER LEVEL DISTURBANCE ARE  
FORECAST TO PROGRESS THROUGH THE OHIO VALLEY. THE FRONT IS LIKELY TO  
BE PROGRESSIVE WHICH WILL HELP KEEP THE TOTAL QPF ON THE LOW SIDE.  
 
HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE WEST FOR THE END OF THE WEEK  
BRINGING NEAR AVERAGE TEMPERATURES ON THURSDAY BEFORE MODERATING  
THROUGH THE END OF THE WEEK. THE NEXT CHANCE FOR RAIN MAY ARRIVE  
LATE NEXT WEEKEND WHEN THE NEXT LOW IS FORECAST TO FORM OUT IN THE  
PLAINS.  
 
 
   
AVIATION /07Z SUNDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/  
 
ALL SITES CURRENTLY VFR BUT CONDITIONS WILL SOON DETERIORATE  
THROUGH THE TAF PERIOD AS A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM MOVES THROUGH  
THE REGION. LOTS TO TALK ABOUT SO BROKE IT DOWN BY CATEGORY  
BELOW...  
 
PRECIP: RECENT RADAR REFLECTIVITY INDICATES SCATTERED LIGHT  
RAIN SHOWERS FALLING OUT OF A MID-DECK MOVING THROUGH THE  
COVERAGE AREA. THE EXPECTATION IS THAT THESE WILL BECOME MORE  
WIDESPREAD AS THE NIGHT CONTINUES. MODERATE INTENSITY WIDESPREAD  
RAIN CONTINUES THROUGH SUNDAY MORNING HOURS BEFORE BECOMING  
MORE SCATTERED IN NATURE BY AFTERNOON. THERE IS A VERY SLIGHT  
CHANCE FOR THE ODD RUMBLE OF THUNDER, BUT PRIMARILY EXPECTING  
SHOWERS SO DID NOT INCLUDE ANY TS IN TAFS. RAIN TAPERS OFF LATE  
AFTERNOON AS THE COLD FRONT PUSHES THROUGH AND WE DRY OUT FOR  
THE EVENING HOURS.  
 
CIGS/VSBYS: CURRENT VFR CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO DETERIORATE  
AS WE MOVE THROUGH THE OVERNIGHT HOURS. AS PRECIPITATION  
COVERAGE BECOMES MORE WIDESPREAD, EXPECTING VSBYS TO DROP WITH  
ONGOING PRECIP. RIGHT NOW, HAVE KEPT VSBYS ABOVE 2SM, BUT WOULD  
NOT BE SURPRISED TO SEE SOME LOWERED POCKETS. WILL BE SOMETHING  
TO MONITOR. CIGS CURRENTLY AROUND 100K FT WILL QUICKLY FALL TO  
MVFR THEN IFR BY EARLY MORNING HOURS. MUCH OF THE AREA REMAINS  
IFR DURING THE DAY ON SUNDAY, WITH POCKETS OF LIFR POSSIBLE. AS  
THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH SUNDAY EVENING, WE'LL EXPERIENCE AN  
ABRUPT CLEARING AS POST-FRONTAL SUBSIDENCE PROCESSES TAKE OVER.  
HOWEVER, EXPECT SOME LOW LEVEL SCATTERED COLD AIR ADVECTION CU  
IN THE POST-FRONTAL REGIME. COULD POSSIBLY BE BKN AT TIMES.  
 
WINDS: WINDS WILL BEGIN TO INCREASE DURING THE OVERNIGHT HOURS  
TONIGHT AS A LOW LEVEL JET STARTS TO RAMP UP BETWEEN 07-12Z AND  
SOME OF THESE WINDS WILL MIX DOWN. THERE HAS BEEN A CONSISTENT  
PATCHY SIGNAL FOR LLWS, PARTICULARLY FOR KDAY DURING SUNDAY  
EARLY MORNING HOURS. WENT AHEAD AND ADDED IN A BRIEF PERIOD OF  
LLWS FOR THIS SITE FROM 11-13Z. FOR REMAINING SITES, BEGIN TO  
INTRODUCE GUSTS AS EARLY AS 12Z AND GUSTY CONDITIONS WILL  
CONTINUE THROUGH THE AFTERNOON, WITH SUSTAINED SOUTHWESTERLY  
WINDS AROUND 12-15 KNOTS, GUSTING TO 25 KNOTS. AS THE COLD FRONT  
MOVES THROUGH DURING THE EVENING HOURS, WINDS WILL ABRUPTLY  
SHIFT TO OUT OF THE WEST AND GUSTS WILL DECREASE.  
 
OUTLOOK...MVFR/IFR CEILINGS TO LINGER INTO SUNDAY NIGHT. MVFR  
CONDITIONS POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO THURSDAY.
