area forecast discussion
national weather service cleveland oh
915 am edt tue aug 25 2015

synopsis...
a series of troughs of low pressure will rotate
southeast across lake erie into wednesday then high pressure will
move east across the region thursday into saturday then settle over
virginia into early next week. weak low pressure should move up the
lower ohio valley sunday into monday and dissipate.

&&

near term /until 6 pm this evening/...
satellite imagery shows the extensive cloudiness upstream and over
the lakes region due to an upper level trough. a series of weak
short waves will rotate around the upper trough which will enhance
the clouds and lake enhanced shower development. the steering flow
will every so gradually shift from the wsw to the wnw by this
evening. this will help support some isolated pops further west
along the lakeshore this afternoon than where they are confined
currently. webcams are showing the altocu development off the lake
which could support some waterspouts. this morning we will see a
few breaks in the clouds as the first short waves pushes
east...but some wrap around moistures moving in will quickly bring
back overcast clouds. with cloudy skies and h850 temperatures
around 7-8c we can expect temperatures to struggle to reach 70
today.

prev discussion...
the first in a series of weak troughs has moved
se into the snowbelt and continues to weaken. another trough is
expected to be near lake erie by 00z this evening. 850 mb temps
will stay cool enough today to allow for some lake effect shra.
the troughs will act a focusing mechanism for more concentrated
bands of shra. current forecast pops look reasonable so little to
change.

more widespread clouds today will only allow highs to get back into
a 67 to 72 degree range with the cooler readings in the east part of
the snowbelt.

&&

short term /6 pm this evening through friday night/...
the next weak
trough should drop se across the cwa tonight. better moisture will
be in place in the lower levels so the threat for light
shra/sprinkle should spread out a little more outside of the
snowbelt and this will remain the case thru wed as the axis of the
upper trough moves se across the cwa. with sunset wed eve...the
threat for shra should retreat into the eastern part of the snowbelt
and continue to shrink thru thu as high pressure finally moves over
the area. the high should provide dry conditions thu night thru fri
night.

temps will continue below normal thru thu night then start to
moderate closer to normal on fri in response to abundant sunshine
and winds becoming light se.

&&

long term /saturday through monday/...
heights are progged to rise across the eastern half of the
country late in the week into next week. the fly in the ointment
is an upper trough that is progged to drift across the midwest and
lower great lakes. the models have been relatively consistent with
this feature.

the surface progs on the models look as though a weak cold front
will drop across ontario and new england while a warm front develops
over the ohio valley. the atmosphere will start out quite stable and
dry and it may take a while to moisten things up. will continue to
forecast a slight chance for showers/storms across northwest ohio on
saturday with a chance for showers and thunderstorms over the entire
forecast area on sunday. not sure if the system will be gone on
monday or not.

temperatures will recover as the ridge builds aloft. temperatures
may be suppressed somewhat on saturday and sunday depending on the
amount of clouds and showers but the trend will be upward. highs
should be above normal this weekend and especially into next week.
summer is not over yet.

&&

aviation /12z tuesday through saturday/...
the first trough of low pressure will move southeast of the area
this morning. a few showers may continue to develop off of lake
erie since temperatures are cold aloft but that would be mainly
across extreme northeast oh and northwest pa. ceilings elsewhere
will be vfr (035-060). showers will likely redevelop again tonight
as the next surface trough drops across lake erie in the
northwest flow. stratocumulus clouds will persist on wednesday but
mostly vfr ceilings outside the snowbelt of extreme ne oh/nw pa.

outlook...non vfr possible extreme northeast oh and northwest pa
wednesday into thursday morning.

&&

marine...
just enough wind is likely on lake erie today to keep the
small craft advisory in effect from the islands east. the gradient
will gradually weaken today but the favorable wind direction from
the west southwest and the cold advection should be enough to keep
the waves up around 3 to 4 feet much of the day on the central and
eastern basin.

the next trough of low pressure will swing through tonight. the wind
may increase for a couple of hours with the passage of the trough
but the overall wind speeds may not be strong enough for enough
duration for a small craft advisory. it will be close though and
small craft operators should monitor the forecast and the weather. a
waterspout is possible just about anytime into thursday morning but
especially this morning and again tonight with the passage of the
trough.

high pressure will build east across the lower lakes by thursday and
winds should diminish from west to east and veer more northerly. the
flow should come around from the south by friday as the high shifts
east. high pressure to the north of lake erie could cause a light
east to northeast flow to develop for a while this weekend but wind
speeds should be relatively light.
