synopsis...
high pressure over the area will weaken through tuesday. a cold
front will drop south across the area late tuesday then high
pressure will move east across the northern lakes into maine by
thursday. another cold front will move across the area friday
night and stall to allow a low to move along the front from
tennessee to the mid atlantic coast by sunday.
&&

near term /through tonight/...
high pressure over the area weakens some today. shortwave energy
will move across the central lakes and while precipitation will
primarily stay out of our area...this feature does bring with it
mid/high clouds. included a slight chance of light snow across the
extreme north...likely just a flurry at best. after a cold start
highs will recover to near 20...which is still 20 degrees below
normal.
&&

short term /wednesday through friday night/...
a stronger shortwave will brush the great lakes tonight and push a
weak surface cold front south into the area late tuesday night.
better moisture and upper support stay north and east of the area
and have continued just the slight chance precip. somewhat better
moisture wednesday with a little lift lingering...and therefore
pops a category higher. high pressure and drier air then settle
south for thursday. temperatures still remain well below normal
for tonight through thursday. precipitation when it occurs will be
light.
finally get some return flow for friday and moderating
temperatures. finally able to forecast daytime temperatures near
normal. precip free until friday night when a cold front crosses
the area. temperatures initially could be borderline for snow.
&&

long term /saturday through monday/...
some over running precip still shows up saturday into saturday night
but none of the models indicate a significant wave developing on the
front as was hinted at a few days ago. will keep a chance of light
snow in the forecast saturday/saturday night. some rain also
possible if the precip develops quickly enough on saturday before
the colder air gets deep enough. sunday should be dry with temps
somewhat below normal but not brutally cold.
the next cold front is progged to slide across the northern great
lakes on monday. we should find our way into the mild pacific
southwest flow ahead of the front. will forecast temperatures
near/slightly above normal next monday. the front appears as if it
will sag across the area monday night or early next tuesday.
&&

aviation /12z tuesday through saturday/...
a weak trough of low pressure will cross the lower great lakes
this afternoon. most areas will see an increase in clouds but
ceilings will remain vfr. a brief snow showers is possible near
lake erie and north. will only mention the snow in the keri taft
forecast this afternoon. mid/high clouds and vfr conditions will
persist tonight.

outlook...non vfr late wednesday into thursday.
&&

marine...
relatively weak weather systems will cross the lower great lakes
this week. a reinforcing push of colder air and a north flow is
expected late today/tonight through mid week. the flow will come
back around from the south and southwest by friday ahead of the next
front. the next front is expected to sag south across the lake
friday night and the flow will veer from the north again by the
weekend.
