Area Discussion for - Cleveland, OH
(on/off) Help NOTE: mouseover dotted underlined text for definition| Fxus61 kcle 220006 afdcle area forecast discussion national weather service cleveland oh 806 pm edt Wed aug 21 2019 Synopsis A cold front will move across the forecast area overnight. High pressure will build over the region on Thursday and remain through the weekend. Near term through Thursday night Band of showers and thunderstorms that brought 1-2 inches of rain to portions of crawford county pennsylvania continues to shift south. Chances for precipitation will continue to decrease this evening with just a few very light showers extending back into trumbull county. Elsewhere chances of rain are low across the area this evening and lowered pops most areas. By later tonight, moisture advection ramps up ahead of the front and showers are expected to expand overnight into Thursday morning. Trended pops up about 10 percent overnight and tomorrow ahead of the front. Previous discussion... A cold front will move across the area overnight through Thursday morning. This is a fairly significant front and will bring much cooler air to the region over the next several days. The 12z run of the models show scattered showers and thunderstorms overnight. Both GFS and NAM show the development of a surface wave on the front overnight. The GFS is more aggressive with the surface low and the pcpn with the model is likely high. I will trend toward the nam. The surface low will likely slow the movement of the front between 06z-12z. The front will then push south of the forecast area Thursday afternoon. The surface wave will keep scattered showers and thunderstorms in the forecast area overnight through Thursday afternoon particularly over the southern areas. Dry and fair conditions with cooler air will filter over the region Thursday evening into Friday. Short term Friday through Saturday night The short term begins Friday with models are showing building high pressure across the great lakes. A frontal boundary will be stalled across the tennessee valley with moisture lingering into the lower ohio valley. Aloft, an upper low will be over quebec with a trough extending southwest across the eastern and central lakes. While the airmass will be generally dry, the main concern will be how much instability with be created by the cool air aloft and leftover low level moisture. For now, will keep Friday dry albeit with a healthy crop of afternoon cu. Friday night through Sunday, the high will dominate the region as it passes across ontario into quebec. With the high to our north however, winds will be from the northeast and east on lake erie creating a favorable setup for marginally high water on the west end. The most likely timing with be Saturday into Saturday night with winds from the east at 15 to 20 knots. Will need to monitor this situation in future model runs. Friday and Saturday look for highs in the low to mid 70s. Sunday highs will reach the upper 70s. Long term Sunday through Wednesday Sunday night and Monday, models take the high east across quebec with southerly return flow setting up across the ohio valley. Models show moisture returning but differ on timing. Will lean closer to the slower ECMWF and bring chance pops back to the southwestern |
counties Monday morning and then everywhere across northern ohio in the afternoon. Moisture will continue to pool into the region Monday night in advance of an approaching cold front. Models differ on frontal timing with the GFS showing to just to our west Tuesday afternoon while the ECMWF hold it off for Wednesday. At this point will not get too fancy and just have a chance of showers and thunderstorms Tuesday into Wednesday and await better model resolution. Highs around 80 Monday and in the lower 80s Tuesday and Wednesday. Aviation 00z Thursday through Monday A brief shower initially near yng will end by 01z. Otherwise conditions are starting offVFR across the area. Clouds and moisture will increase overnight ahead of a cold front approaching from the north. Scattered showers will develop between 4-8z near tol, expanding to the south and east overnight into Thursday. Most sites will see MVFR ceilings develop with the possibility of a window of ifr. Visibility restrictions of 3-5 miles also possible. Thunderstorms will become more likely by late morning on Thursday at the southern terminals. Southwest winds of 10 knots or less will shift to the north between 06z - 16z Thursday as a strong cold front moves south. Outlook... NonVFR possible Friday morning with patchy br. Non vfr possible with a chance of showers and thunderstorms on Monday afternoon. Marine Winds on lake erie were from the southwest this afternoon from 10 to 15 knots ahead of a approaching cold front in the central lakes. This cold front will drop across the lake this evening and early tonight turning winds out of the northwest. While current expectations are that on balance, waves will remain below 4 feet, there could be a window where they will be close central and east thirds this evening and early tonight. Will need to monitor for possible small craft advisory if conditions look to be sustained. The front will remain to our south into the weekend as high pressure moves across across ontario and quebec. Winds at first, Thursday, will be light from the northeast. The northeast flow will remain generally 10 knots or less Thursday night through early Friday night. After midnight however northeast flow will increase to 10 to 15 knots, increasing to 15 knots Saturday afternoon. Again, waves are not expected to get to 4 feet but it could be close, especially from the islands to the central basin. Sunday night into Monday expect 15 to 20 knots from the east to southeast Sunday night, turning out of the south to southeast on Monday as the high reaches eastern quebec and the maritimes.

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. |
