KEY MESSAGES

- Few showers possible late this afternoon into tonight.

- Periodic shower/storm chances return at times Monday through Thursday with building heat/humidity.

SHORT TERM /THROUGH SUNDAY/
Issued at 214 PM EDT Sat Jun 14 2025

Pattern Synopsis/Forecast: Upper-level longwave pattern across the CONUS consists of troughing on both coasts -- over the Pac NW and Quebec/New England -- with ridging sandwiched in between over the nation's midsection. Embedded shortwave trough evident over the mid- MS and Ohio Valleys with disorganized surface reflection across the same area. Expansive area of surface high pressure centered to our northeast across Ontario/Quebec aiding to continue to filter in drier low-level air on the heels of northeast winds. While this area of high pressure sags into the western Great Lakes through the remainder of the weekend, upstream shower activity associated with subtle PV anomaly and confluence zone aloft may try to squeeze into parts of the forecast area later this afternoon into tonight.

Forecast Details: Little in the way of high impact weather potential through the remainder of the day into tonight, but not without some nuisance shower chances. Limited forcing and low-level northeast winds helping to feed in drier air out of Canada will inhibit numerous showers (unlike the case upstream over northern WI/central U.P. today), but will continue with low end PoPs this afternoon into tonight for a few showers that may squeeze into the area at times.
Best chances for this are across northwest lower. Rain amounts, if any, should be negligible.

Otherwise, variable cloud cover anticipated tonight with most numerous clouds across northwest lower into parts of eastern upper.
Best shot for at least partial clearing is anticipated over southern/southeast sections of the CWA Lows generally in the mid/upper 40s to low/mid 50s area-wide.

Heights slowly rise for Sunday with latest trends supporting precipication-free conditions with eventual partial sunshine area- wide. High temps expected to be in the 70s area-wide with cooler 60s at many of the beaches.

LONG TERM /SUNDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY/
Issued at 214 PM EDT Sat Jun 14 2025

Pattern Forecast: Ridging expected to continue across the middle of the country through the early portions of next week. However, several shortwaves are expected to crest this ridge, setting up the potential for occasional shower/storm chances amid increasing heat/humidity. Toward the middle of next week, larger scale flow gradually becomes more zonal locally in advance of a more potent wave expected to eject lee of the Rockies and amplify with eastward extent during the Wednesday/Thursday time frame. Overall, generally unsettled conditions expected Monday - Thursday with periods of scattered showers/storms at times.

Forecast Details: First and foremost, PoPs will litter essentially the entirety of the long-term forecast period yielding a rather doom- and-gloom look to the forecast. That said, would expect shower/storm chances to be mixed in amongst plenty of dry time through the week.

Initial low-end shower/storm chances arrive as early as late Sunday night into Monday as decaying upstream convection tries to make a run toward northern Michigan. "Best" chances Monday actually might come mid-late afternoon into the early evening across northeast lower along the typical lake breeze convergence axis.

Somewhat better potential exists later Monday night-Tuesday as another mid-level wave treks across the northern Great Lakes. Think the highest chances for more numerous shower/storm activity arrive Wednesday through Wednesday night in conjunction with amplifying wave and deepening surface reflection approaching from the west.
Lots of uncertainty of course regarding storm coverage and strength through this time frame, but worth noting SPC's Day 5 outlook brings 15% severe probabilities to our southern doorstep. Latest trends do support the best instability/shear overlap remaining to our south, but worth monitoring trends over the coming days.

High temps Monday-Wednesday favored to be in the mid-70s to low 80s across much of northern lower -- cooler near the lakeshores and north of the bridge. Warmest temperatures expected Tuesday with potential for mid-upper 80s in downsloping areas of northeast lower, albeit somewhat dependent on a low confidence cloud cover/precip forecast.
