  (on/off)  Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definitionFxus61 kcle 180244 afdcle area forecast discussion national weather service cleveland oh 944 pm est Sun feb 17 2019 Synopsis Weak low pressure over the lower missouri valley today will move east and enter the ohio valley region tonight before moving off the east coast on Monday. High pressure builds back into the great lakes region Monday night into Tuesday. A pair of low pressure systems will then move through the area on Wednesday and Thursday, one to the north into canada and one to the south through the carolinas. Near term through Monday night Will keep winter weather advisory going at this time since some reports of freezing rain drizzle still being reported upstream. Expecting low to pull out to the northeast and start to pull in cold air to the local area to change all of the precipitation over to snow. Timing still looks like around 1 am. Otherwise, made some major changes to forecast to clean-up the freezing rain wording and ending it at 1 am. Temperatures overnight look reasonable. Original discussion... we are seeing strong isentropic lift across ohio into northwest pennsylvania this afternoon with the strong lift area between central and northern ohio as of mid afternoon. Bands of moderate to occasional heavy precipitation has develop. We have had snowfall rates up to 1 inch per hour with some of the heavier bands. Mping reports and the correlation coefficient on radar showing more of a wintry mix along and south of highway 224 across central ohio. We have even seen a several lightning strikes associated with thunder sleet and freezing rain down in the central ohio area this afternoon. For the rest of the evening, we expect the warm nose layer to creep up to near the lakeshore this evening with a light wintry mix for most of northern ohio and northwest pennsylvania. Northwest may stay mainly light snow. We will lose the cloud ice and nuclei late this evening and have the potential for light freezing drizzle or mist overnight. Earlier this afternoon, we expanded the winter weather advisory a row of counties northward through 06z. Depending on how the freezing drizzle potential plays out later this evening, we may have to expand the time on the advisory if needed overnight. Across northern ohio, we still expect a general 1 to 2 inches with isolated higher amounts of snowfall for far northeast ohio into northwest pa. A light coating of sleet is possible followed by a light glaze of freezing rain and ice on objects. Ice accumulation will be a few one hundredths of an inch to up to a tenth of an inch possible across central ohio areas. The area of low pressure will move east of the area by Monday morning with northern winds and colder air aloft returning. We will see a change back to light snow showers Monday morning across the area with the snow showers lingering the longest for the primary snowbelt region. All snow showers will come to an end by Monday afternoon. Monday night will be the coldest temperatures for the week, down in the middle teens. Short term Tuesday through Wednesday night High pressure over the great lakes Tuesday will drift eastward into new england Tuesday night. This will keep conditions dry across the region Tuesday and most of Tuesday night, with precip chances increasing late Tuesday night into Wednesday as low pressure across |
the southern plains tracks towards the western great lakes. The area will be split between two stronger areas of convergence lift, one to the southeast of the region with a strong low level jet mid level forcing, and one to the northwest near the surface low. Although the highest pops are on either side of the forecast area, there looks to be a decent enough period of low level lift to warrant likely pops Wednesday into Wednesday night. It looks for now to be a steady transition from snow to rain, with perhaps a brief corridor of freezing rain mix in between. The low will quickly track east out of the great lakes Wednesday night, with dry conditions returning to the area by Thursday, aside for some low lake effect chances across northwest pa. Highs will be in the low 30s Tuesday, warming into the upper 30s low 40s Wednesday and Thursday. Long term Thursday through Sunday A large area of high pressure will work east across the great lakes Thursday night into new england by Friday. A similar looking upper level pattern will bring the ejection of another low northeast from the southern plains into the great lakes Saturday through Sunday. Went with mid chance low likely pops Saturday through Sunday, with lower confidence in specifics given model differences at this time range. Generally above normal temperatures expected, with highs Friday in the low 40s, and highs in the mid upper 40s possible Saturday into Sunday, with a few spots approaching 50 degrees south on Saturday. Aviation 00z Monday through Friday Nasty aviation day with areas of freezing rain and freezing drizzle across the local area this evening. Bulk of the main precipitation is moving off to the northeast at this time but residual freezing drizzle rain pockets will remain for a good chunk of the evening hours. Winter weather advisory is in effect for the entire area through 1 am in the morning due to the freezing precipitation. Expecting the freezing rain drizzle to change over to all snow as low pressure moves east of the area and forces colder air into the region aloft. Lower ceilings will prevail through the rest of the forecast period with a possibility of going toVFR at findlay by the end of the forecast period. Winds will gradually shift around to the north and then northwest tonight into tomorrow. Outlook... Non-vfr possible Tuesday night into Thursday morning. Marine Low pressure will pass south of the lake tonight. Northeast flow will gradually diminish, backing northerly by Monday morning as the low moves out of the region. Water levels are on the higher side across the western basin, however do not anticipate levels reaching critical thresholds for lakeshore flooding as winds begin to subside this evening. Will continue to monitor closely over the next several hours. Winds will be light and variable Monday night into Tuesday as high pressure moves across the lake. Low pressure will pass west and north of the lake Wednesday night, with easterly winds increasing Wednesday, veering southwest by Thursday morning. Another ridge will bring light an variable winds Thursday night through Friday night. Cle watches warnings advisories Oh...
