area forecast discussion
national weather service cleveland oh
727 am edt fri oct 7 2016

.synopsis...
the area will remain on the western periphery of high pressure along
the new england coast today. low pressure near lake superior will
track northeast with the trailing cold front moving east across the
area tonight. high pressure will build in from the west over the
weekend.

&&

.near term /until 6 pm this evening/...
06z nam has backed off a little on the moisture advection towards
the eastern cwa this afternoon which was in line with previous
forecast thinking. only adjustment to the forecast with the early
morning update was to bump pops up about 10 percent in extreme
northwest ohio ahead of the front this evening.

previous discussion...one more day of above normal temperatures
today as the area resides between a trough approaching from the
west and high pressure along the new england coast. models have
been showing the anti-cyclonic flow around the surface high
bringing a plume of moisture north across eastern ohio/western
pennsylvania this afternoon and evening. the nam is more
aggressive showing a thicker cloud deck in this afternoon while
the majority of other models show a thickening cu field in the
east this afternoon with thicker cloud cover waiting until tonight
to arrive. 06z pbz sounding shows a very dry airmass above 950mb
and will lean towards the better consensus which is slower with
the moisture. the degree of cloud cover will have an impact on
high temperatures and followed suit closer to the mav guidance in
the east which is 5-6 degrees warmer than the met at several
sites. skies will be mostly sunny in the west and went with highs
close to yesterdays values in the lower 80s.

&&

.short term /6 pm this evening through monday night/...
a cold front will move east across the area tonight ahead of the
upper level trough advancing into the central great lakes. models
have trended a little bit slower with the timing of the front not
clearing the eastern counties until just before dawn. moisture
approaching from the west overnight will be post frontal and expect
showers to be decreasing in coverage as they approach northwest ohio
late this evening. better chances for showers will be in the east as
moisture advects north ahead of the approaching front. raised
pops to 40-50 percent in many of the eastern counties for tonight.
also raised minimum temperatures for tonight across central and
western counties given the slower frontal timing and cloudy
conditions.

subsidence behind the front on saturday combines with deep layer dry
air to quickly clear clouds out from west to east. some cumulus
will remain downwind of lake erie with cloud cover increasing
saturday night as the cooler air arrives. stronger cold push
arrives ahead of high pressure building in from the west with
850mb temperatures falling to 2-4c on sunday. although the airmass
will lack moisture, cloud cover should expand saturday night into
sunday as low level moisture gets trapped beneath the
strengthening inversion. warmed temperatures downwind of lake erie
up a few degrees on both saturday and sunday nights given the
potential for clouds. temperatures will return to more "fall-like"
values over the weekend and sunday will be the coolest day with
highs ranging from the upper 50s to lower 60s.

&&

.long term /tuesday through thursday/...
high and dry through the extended periods. broad upper level trough
transitioning into a more zonal flow with little in the way of
moisture expected through the duration. no strong storm systems are
expected to pass through the region. high pressure over the
northeastern united states will pull out to the east while a dry
cold front pushes east across the area by thursday morning. another
large area of high pressure will push east across the area thursday
night into friday. temperatures through the extended period will
drop back slightly into the 60s for highs thursday but recover as
high pressure builds in back to the lower 70s by friday. overnight
lows in the middle 40s to lower 50s expected. all of this takes
place as quick shots of cold air advection take place on the east
side of the high pressure as it builds into the region.

&&

.aviation /12z friday through tuesday/...
mainly high clouds will spread east today and then lower as the
cold front approaches the west later tonight. moisture will push
north out of the southeastern u.s. and could drop ceilings down to
mvfr and possibly ifr tonight in the east at akron-canton and
youngstown. holding off rain until after 06z most places except
extreme west. wind should be southerly less than 10 knots becoming
northwest after frontal passage. clearing follows fairly quickly
behind the front tomorrow.

outlook...vfr.

&&

.marine...
winds will remain out of the south to southeast across the area
today into early tonight. cold front is progged to move east across
the area late tonight. this will shift winds around to the northwest
behind the cold front. winds will also be on the increase to 15 to
25 knots and we will likely need small craft advisories late tonight
into saturday night. winds go light and variable late sunday into
tuesday.

&&

.cle watches/warnings/advisories...
oh...none.
pa...none.
marine...none.
