AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
National Weather Service Wilmington OH
953 PM EDT Mon Jun 24 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
A brief respite in the heat and humidity today, before warmer
and more humid air quickly builds back into the region on
Tuesday. Chance for storms returns Tuesday and increases
Wednesday ahead of the next cold front. Drier and cooler
conditions will then return for the last part of the workweek
before heat and humidity build back for this weekend.

Quiescent night ahead. Cumulus have pretty much dissipated.
Could see some mid clouds spread into the northwest before
daybreak from upstream storms. Light winds will become
southerly. Lows will be in the 60s with coolest readings in the
east.

.SHORT TERM /6 AM THIS MORNING THROUGH 6 PM WEDNESDAY/...
Progressive mid level shortwave to track thru the Great Lakes
Tuesday. Moisture to return in response to low level jet with an
increase in higher theta-e air nosing in from the W toward
Tuesday morning. Weakening MCS to track into West Central Ohio
early Tuesday. As this complex encounters an unfavorable
environment expect it to decay and fall apart leaving a good
deal of debris clouds. As the airmass recovers expect moderate
instability to develop later Tuesday afternoon - especially
along and northwest of I-71. With a high degrees of uncertainty
have kept pops in the chance category with the highest pops
across West Central Ohio. High temperatures to range from the
upper 80s to the lower 90s.

Models solutions support a low level jet of 40-45 kts with
moderate instability in place ahead of a shortwave embedded in
the westerly mid level flow. Expect storm chances to increase
as we head into Tuesday night and spread south and east across
ILN/s area. Given instability and shear the potential exists for
strong to severe storms with damaging winds being the primary
threat late in the day into Tuesday night. ML from CSU and SPC
outlooks highlight this threat generally along and northwest of
I-71. In the moist airmass locally heavy rain will also be a
threat. Mild lows generally in the lower 70s by Wednesday
morning.

&&

.LONG TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...
For Wednesday, a surface boundary in phase with an upper trough and
short wave energy will push into an unstable airmass, bringing
widespread showers and thunderstorms. Some storms could be strong to
severe, with damaging winds the main threat, along with heavy rain.
A dry interlude is suggested for Thursday and Friday when high
pressure is forecast to track across the Great Lakes. A cold front
may bring another round of showers and thunderstorms Saturday into
Sunday. Dry weather returns Monday with high pressure.

Temperature fluctuations will be evident with respect to frontal
position and associated clouds and precipitation. Highs ranging
through the 80s on Wednesday near the initial cold front will slip
to the upper 70s to mid 80s Thursday in modest cold advection behind
the front. Warm advection and insolation associated with the high
will help boost readings to around 90 on Friday. Further warm
advection just ahead of the next front may bring highs up into the
90s for Saturday. A reduction back to the 80s is expected for Sunday
and Monday behind the front.

.AVIATION /02Z TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
-- Changed Discussion --
VFR is forecast through the period. Expect to see some clouds
spread into the region towards 12Z from the remnants of a
thunderstorm complex that will drop through the western Great
Lakes overnight. Looks like some showers or thunderstorms may
develop and potentially affect KDAY between 13Z and 16Z. But
otherwise there will be another cumulus field across the region
during the latter part of the period. Light winds overnight will
become southerly by daybreak. These winds will increase with
some gusts at or above 20 kt in the afternoon.

OUTLOOK...Thunderstorms possible Tuesday night and Wednesday.
