area forecast discussion
national weather service cleveland oh
616 am est thu jan 23 2014

synopsis...
a series of clipper lows will move southeast through the region into
early next week then high pressure will try and build over the ohio
valley for the middle of next week.
&&

near term /until 6 pm this evening/...
the current clipper affecting the area will continue to weaken and
shift off to the east today. wrap moisture and upper level low
pressure will combine to keep a good threat for nuisance snow going
but the threat should start to shift more toward just the snowbelt
as evening begins. accumulation today should less than an inch
although some areas in the snowbelt could see local amounts of
another inch or so.
will let the current wind chill advisory in the west serve as the
headline du jour for now.
&&

short term /6 pm this evening through sunday night/...
high pressure ridging into the area...the upper level trough
shifting east and drier air spreading in from the west should work
to continue ending the snow from west to east tonight. some flurries
or a few light snow showers may hang on over the east part of the
snowbelt going into fri morning but should end by noon.
another wind chill advisory will again be needed for tonight and a
good part of fri as winds increase.
the next clipper will affect the area fri night thru sat. current
forecast has handle on situation so little changes to be made other
than to increase accumulation more...to maybe 2 to 4 inches. the
usual shift to mainly lake effect looks on track for later sat into
sat night. think precip from the next clipper will stay west of the
area thru daybreak sun.
yet more wind chill headlines look likely for sat night.
another clipper expected to move across the area sun into sun night
with more widespread light snow...again followed by reinforcing
arctic air.
&&

long term /monday through wednesday/...
another reinforcing upper level trough will dig south across the
eastern united states for early and mid week for next week. this
upper level trough will have a resultant surface low pressure system
that will track east toward the lower great lakes on sunday and then
across the forecast area on monday. once the low moves northeast of
the region...an arctic cold front will slide south across the area.
this will allow another shot of arctic air to move into the region
for the early part of next week. this air mass will be colder than
what we have seen in recent days.
snow associated with the low pressure system will begin to move east
and out of the area on monday afternoon and evening as drier air
moves into the area. a lingering trough of low pressure will sweep
through the region on tuesday and only residual lake effect moisture
will remain present tuesday. high pressure will build northeast into
the forecast area on wednesday and then to the east coast wednesday
night. so...fair weather should return at least for wednesday. we
should begin to see some warm air advection taking place by
wednesday evening on the back side of the high pressure center. this
will result in some warming by wednesday after some pretty cold
temperatures to start the work week.
&&

aviation /12z thursday through monday/...
low pressure will move east across the southern great lakes this
morning and continue some light snow across the area. there will
be brief pockets of visibilities reduced to 1 mile at cle and eri
with the snow but i think these will be short lived enough to
leave out of the tafs. otherwise...should see visibilities between
3 to 5 miles with light snow and ceilings around 1500 feet through
the morning. snow should end by early afternoon as low pulls out
to the east and ceilings will improve overnight. winds will shift
to a northwesterly direction and then swing around to a southwest
direction tonight.
outlook...non vfr saturday through monday.
&&

marine...
gale watch will remain in effect. although...confidence is starting
to dwindle as with each successive model run...the winds are backing
off little by little. there is still the chance we could see gales
friday afternoon into saturday so will keep the watch going.
in the mean time...winds will be relatively light on the lake
through friday morning and then gradually increase during the day
friday. a cold front will sweep east across the lake and cause winds
to diminish slightly along the front and then pick up again to gale
force on saturday after the front. winds diminish fairly quickly
saturday night into sunday morning and become southerly by
afternoon. another cold front moves through sunday night and this
will cause winds to become westerly but should remain below gale
force on monday.
