Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Cleveland OH 411 AM EDT Wed Mar 22 2023
SYNOPSIS. A cold front will approach from the west today and tonight before moving southeast across the area on Thursday. The front will slow over the Ohio Valley on Friday and lift north across the local area Saturday as low pressure slides northeast across the lower Great Lakes. High pressure will build over the region on Sunday.
NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/. Weak disturbance is moving across the area early this morning resulting in scattered light showers in western locations where the lower levels have managed to moisten sufficiently. Elsewhere, the lower levels are very dry with dew point depressions as high as 25 to 30 degrees, which is preventing any measurable rain from reaching the surface. This trend will continue through much of this morning and the best chance of precip will lie west of I-71. While a few stray showers could develop through this afternoon, generally expect a period of dry weather before things become a bit more interesting tonight.
The CWA will remain in the warm sector with deepening south/southwest flow and warm air advection today, allowing moisture to gradually increase through this evening. The next upper level disturbance arrives from the southwest tonight as a cold front approaches from the Mississippi Valley. Shower coverage increases rapidly this evening and there may be sufficient instability for a few elevated thunderstorms tonight into the overnight hours. There's still a bit of uncertainty in the coverage/placement of precip, but generally expect PoPs to increase through tonight with the highest rain chances across northern Ohio, Lake Erie, and NW PA.
Shower/thunderstorm chances continue into Thursday with the cold front moving southeast across the CWA Thursday morning and afternoon. PoPs will start to taper off on the backside of the front Thursday afternoon, but the front will likely start slowing as it slides south of US-30. As far as hazards go, precipitable water values will be unseasonably high and flow parallel to the frontal boundary may result in locally heavy rain and training that may result in nuisance flooding and/or ponding along with rising rivers. The best moisture and highest QPF values will lie to the south of the CWA, however.
Temperatures won't budge too much today, with maximum temps in the 50s today only falling a few degrees into the upper 40s to lower 50s tonight. Thursday will be the warmest day of the week as temps climb into the mid to upper 50s to lower 60s, although highs will likely be achieved late morning to early afternoon before the front moves through and temps start to fall in its wake.
SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/. A cold front will continue to slide southward Thursday evening and eventually stalling out across southern Ohio by Friday morning. Post frontal rain showers will be around early Thursday with a decrease in rain chances from north to south during the overnight hours. Friday will be a cool and overcast day. We will have a break in the rain chances with a few scattered showers possibly south of the Highway 30 corridor during the day. High temperatures will only reach the lower to middle 40s on Friday. A surface low pressure system will rapidly develop along the stalled front near the Mid- Mississippi and Lower Ohio Valley Friday evening. This surface low will strengthen as it tracks northward Friday night. It will also bring the stalled frontal boundary northward as a warm front across much of our area by Saturday morning. Rain will become widespread again Friday night as it the warm front surges northward. There has been a shift in the model guidance of the surface low tracking more west across western Ohio by early Saturday morning. This shift means more our of area will be back in the warm sector of this storm system on Saturday with temperatures climbing back into upper 50 and lower 60s Saturday. The surface low will peak in intensity Saturday afternoon possibly dropping down to around 985 mb or so as it tracks across our western CWA into southwestern Ontario. Rain showers and isolated thunder will be likely Saturday. This weather system will have alot of dynamics and potential some decent wind shear on Saturday. We will have to keep an eye on trends with the thermodynamics on this system. If any convection can develop in the warm sector, it could tap into some of the wind energy and have an isolated damaging wind threat. This system will also very windy conditions. We may have gusty winds up to 45 mph Saturday. A cold front will move through from west to east by Saturday evening. Some lingering rain showers will remain possible through Saturday evening.
LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/. A weak area of high pressure will build in on Sunday with a fair weather day. Clouds will break up and clear out for a nice day. The weather pattern will flatten out to a more zonal flow aloft by Monday. A weaker weather system will track across the Ohio Valley on Monday. It will increase our clouds again with additional rain chances. The weather pattern gradually shift to a west-northwest flow aloft by the middle of next week with slightly below average temperatures.
AVIATION /06Z Wednesday THROUGH Sunday/. Showers are moving across the western half of the CWA, but most of the precip has started off as virga and is not reaching the ground due to dry low levels. The lower levels slowly saturate overnight (as evident at KTOL/KFDY) and ceilings should lower to MVFR at KTOL/KFDY/KMFD with some light showers reaching the surface. Showers will not impact visibility.
Moisture increases across the eastern half of the area throughout the day today and most TAF sites across NE OH should see MVFR ceilings at some point between 18Z and 00Z. Some guidance is hinting at a period of VFR conditions before ceilings fall again. More widespread precip arrives near or shortly after 00Z Wednesday and expect conditions to deteriorate further with the arrival of rain. IFR ceilings are likely towards the end of the TAF period with IFR visibility likely within heavier pockets of rain.
Winds become southerly tonight but will remain below 10 knots before increasing to 10 to 15 knots with gusts to 20 to 25 knots during the day Wednesday.
Outlook . Non-VFR possible with periods of rain showers through Saturday. Isolated thunderstorms are possible on Thursday.
MARINE. Southerly flow will begin to increase today an tonight. South winds 10 to 15 knots today will increase to 15 to 25 knots tonight and lingering into early Thursday. A small craft advisory may be needed by late tonight into Thursday. A cold front will slide southeast across the lake Thursday, winds diminish rapidly reducing threat for small craft advisory conditions. Lake remains relatively quiet Friday and begins to see increasing winds by Friday night from the northeast as another stronger low pressure system approaches the lake. Will likely need a small craft advisory Friday night through Saturday night. Winds could approach Gales on Saturday into Saturday night as low pressure moves northeast over the lake. Southwest winds on Saturday will shift from the west behind the exiting surface low Saturday evening. Winds will relax from the west 10 to 15 knots on Sunday.
