(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus61 kcle 201733 afdcle area forecast discussion national weather service cleveland oh 1233 pm est Tue nov 20 2018 Synopsis A cold front across northwest pennsylvania and northern ohio will continue to move southeast this afternoon. A clipper system will move across the great lakes tonight dragging another cold front through the region. Cold but dry conditions are expected thanksgiving. Near term through Wednesday Conditions are quickly improving at midday as the weak cold front sweeps southeast. The band of light snow associated with the front has diminished to a few banded snow showers in the nw flow behind the front in the snowbelt. Clearing is progressing southeast too across northwest ohio and this trend will continue through the afternoon. Cold advection aloft and low sun angle will limit heating for the afternoon so we can expect temperatures to remain nearly steady. Previous discussion: for tonight drying moves in with a ridge of high pressure extending in from the southwest. This breaks down quickly as another clipper moves through the lakes. Associated moisture is limited but sufficient for additional lake effect snow. Will have likely to categorical pops in the snowbelt with another 1 to 3 the most likely outcome. Short term Wednesday night through Friday The short term forecast begins on Wednesday night with the region behind a cold front. Cold air advection in northwest flow over the great lakes will usher in some cold, dry arctic air into the region. There is a brief window for some lake effect on Wednesday night as northwest flow is a favorable fetch for lake effect off lakes huron and erie but the moisture off these two lake will have to fight off quite a bit of dry air behind the front, while flow continues to veer overnight. For now, will have a chance pop in the snow belt with up to an inch of snow accumulation for Wednesday night, as there is a window for lake effect but enough to keep it from getting out of control. Arctic high pressure will build south over the region for thanksgiving day. This will keep the area dry, but most notably, temperatures of -10 to -17c at 850 mb will translate to high temperatures in the 20s. If this holds, it could be the coldest thanksgiving on record for several areas (lowest maximum temperature), so stay tuned for potential climate records. High pressure will shift east on Friday as a warm front moves into the region. Rain should hold off until Friday night, as an upper ridge will still be in place over the region. Temperatures will recover 10- 15 degrees on Friday with the air air advection and southerly flow, but highs will still run below normal in the upper 30s to lower 40s. Long term Friday night through Monday The long term forecast period looks unsettled to say the least for this weekend. An upper trough digs into the great lakes region Friday night into Saturday supporting a warm front. This upper level energy should be enough to generate widespread rain on Saturday, diminishing on Saturday night. Temperatures may actually be back around normal for the weekend, close to 50 in many spots... Of course, these warmer temperatures will be spoiled by rain. Weak high pressure attempts to briefly build into the forecast area |
on Sunday, which should allow at least the first half of Sunday to be dry. However, a deep trough will dig across the central conus supporting a surface low over the southern plains, which could impact the region early next week. This system could draw some cold air back into the region so p-type is going to be an issue and something to look out for early next week. All of rain, snow, and mixed precipitation will be a possibility depending on the track of the low and how fast slow warmer air moves out of the region. Temperatures will begin falling back down below normal into the low to mid 40s. Aviation 18z Tuesday through Sunday Conditions are rapidly improving at midday as a weak cold front and associated light snow diminishes to weak banded snow showers mainly in the snowbelt east of cle. Showers will continue to decrease through the afternoon as clearing progresses across northwest ohio and lake erie. Partial clearing will reach the central and northeast ohio later this afternoon as high pressure briefly builds across the area. The next frontal boundary will begin to influence the weather after midnight with increasing clouds and winds from the southwest. Snow showers will develop after 09z as the front sweeps to the southeast. Some lake enhancement can be expected. Ifr east to vfr west this afternoon will becomeVFR to MVFR this evening into Wednesday. Areas of ifr are possible in the snowbelt Wednesday morning in snow showers. Outlook... Non-vfr possible Wednesday and Wednesday night cle eri yng cak in lake effect snow. Marine A cold front moving across the lake this morning will exit southeast of the lake by later this afternoon. Weak high pressure will attempt to build back in behind this front but a much stronger, arctic cold front will cross the lake on Wednesday. Once the first cold front crosses the lake today, winds and waves will be on the increase and remain strong through at least Wednesday night. The strongest winds will be on Wednesday with the second cold front when there could be gusts to 35 knots at times. Have gone ahead and issued a small craft advisory for all of lake erie through Wednesday night. The central basin will see the waves reach SCA criteria by late morning before building east as the cold front clears the lake. Westerly flow will increase late this afternoon so will start the central basin early for the waves but everyone will be reaching SCA criteria by sunset. High pressure will build behind the cold front on Thursday and winds should settle to light and variable and waves will subside on the lake. A warm front will approach the lake for the weekend bringing southerly flow to the area. Cle watches warnings advisories Oh... None. Pa... None. Marine...

Finally, tide and current data on this site is from 2007 and 2008 data bases, which may contain even older data. Changes in harbors due to building or dredging change tides and currents and for that reason many of the locations presented are no longer supported by newer data bases.
