(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus61 kcle 172333 afdcle area forecast discussion national weather service cleveland oh 633 pm est Sat nov 17 2018 00z aviation and mid evening forecast update... Synopsis A cold front over the lower great lakes will move southeast tonight before stalling over the ohio valley on Sunday. Weak low pressure will move east along the front on Sunday. High pressure will build in behind the front on Monday before weak low pressure moves into the great lakes on Monday night into Tuesday. Near term through Sunday night No significant changes were made to the mid evening forecast update. We did update precip chances along with radar trends. We will be watching a weak disturbance moving from the midwest into the ohio river valley region late tonight into tomorrow which will give us better light snow and light rain chances. We could see a dusting to up to an inch of snowfall mainly across northern ohio by midday tomorrow. Previous discussion... a cold front stretching from lower ontario into southern lower michigan and westward will continue to sag south this evening. Precipitation is struggling to develop ahead of it as there is quite a bit of dry air still over the region. Some light radar returns this afternoon are just some flurries that aren't very concerning for accumulations at the moment. The flavor of the forecast is that flurries will be likely across the area at some point tonight but any more significant snow showers would be limited to the snow belt with some lake enhancement or out west where there is a bit better lift and moisture... So have a slight chance everywhere with chance pops in the east and west. The front will continue south of the area tonight and stall as a weak surface low will ripple along the stalled front for Sunday. There is enough support aloft for rain or snow showers to move in ahead of this feature and will keep a mixture of high chance to likely pops. Generally believe that everyone will see some precip on Sunday but going categorical pops is the wrong flavor of the forecast as liquid snow accumulations will be light. Biggest challenge for Sunday's forecast will be precipitation type... Rain or snow will be expected but changeover will depend on timing of the low and the cold air surge behind it with rain of course more favored south and snow favored in the snow belt with a mix of both in between. Temperatures through the period will continue running colder than normal, and Sunday night could be into the 20s as cold air surges down from the north. Short term Monday through Tuesday night The flow will continue to be progressive, but for this week systems will begin to come from the west coast of the u.S. Versus canada. So while the the first part of the week will still feature below normal temperatures, we will have some slight moderation going toward mid week. Made adjustments to Monday's forecast which lowered the chance of precipitation. We look to end up dry as a wedge of high pressure will be briefly in place with a light southwest flow. There will be one low to track across the northern plains to the great lakes for early Tuesday morning with another Wednesday morning. These will be quick systems with light precipitation. Wednesday's system looks a |
bit stronger, but generally moisture starved. High temperatures will be stuck in the mid upper 30s with a few locations touching 40 (about 10 degrees below normal). Lows will be in the upper 20s. Long term Wednesday through Saturday With Wednesday's system trending a little stronger, this will therefore bring in a quick colder snap for Wednesday night through Thursday night before we get to move toward relative warming for the rest of the week. The cool high passes across the great lakes on thanksgiving, staying north of the local area. This will bring north through northeast and east winds Thursday. Not too concerned with any lake effect snow Wednesday night. The moisture just isn't there and by Thursday all of that flurry activity will be squashed. Southerly flow on the backside of the high will bring warmer temps for Friday and we will be dry. The next chance for precipitation will arrive late Friday night and for Saturday. This is as a shortwave cuts across the country, lifting northeast as it reaches the mississippi valley. Precip type should not be a concern with h8 temps rising to +4 except for possibly a few cold valleys across the far east. So after thanksgiving temps rise into the mid upper 40s for Friday Saturday. Aviation 00z Sunday through Thursday Mainly MVFR ceilings were being observed across the area with a gradual decrease in ceilings as the night GOES on. We will likely have low end MVFR or ifr ceilings by Sunday morning. Ifr ceilings will last during much of the day on Sunday. A weak disturbance will bring scattered bands of light snow or a rain snow mix later tonight and on Sunday. Visibilities will drop between 1 and 2 miles late tonight and on Sunday with the bands of light snow. Winds will be generally light 5 knots or less and somewhat variable over the next 12 to 24 hours. A weak surface trough will move into the area tonight with winds shifting to a more northerly to northeasterly. South of the boundary, winds will be kinda southeasterly to southerly. Outlook... Non-vfr likely Sunday and Tuesday. Marine Winds and waves continue to slowly diminish subside in the wake of a weak trough cold front but the small craft advisory will need to go just a bit longer. That trough will buckle north across the lake as low pressure moves up the ohio valley Sunday. This will be followed by another trough Sunday night and high pressure Monday. Low pressure moving across the great lakes will sweep a cold front across the lake early Tuesday with a second system moving across early wedneday. High pressure will be centered north of the lake for thanksgiving. Small craft advisory will likely show up again for Wednesday into Thursday. The Wednesday low has trended a little stronger with a bit more cold air and have brought wind waves up. 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. For example, there is very little tidal current data in newer data bases so current data is likely wrong to some extent. This data is NOT FOR NAVIGATION. See the XTide disclaimer for details. In addition, tide and current are influenced by storms, river flow, and other factors beyond the ability of any predictive program. |
