2015 synopsis... a slow moving cold front across the central great lakes will stall north of lake erie today. low pressure will move northeast along the boundary wednesday and pull the front south across the area. this will be followed by a second stronger front late friday. && near term /until 6 pm this evening/... no changes to forecast for 630 update. original discussion... slow moving cold front now into central michigan. temps should be a degree or two cooler than yesterday as should see some increasing cloud cover as the front slowly sags south. expect weak lake breeze to develop this afternoon so will leave low pops for convection across the eastern lakeshore counties. judging from the 6z synoptic obs gfs way too aggressive with the convection and appears to be suffering from convective feedback. therefore will lean toward the slower nam and ecmwf timing of convection. that said do expect more widespread convection across se lower michigan so will leave chance pops across nw ohio for late this afternoon. && short term /6 pm this evening through friday night/... little change in the short term forecast. slight timing differences with the models but trends still the same. expect that the front will be just nw of the forecast area by daybreak wednesday with the convection shield into extreme nw ohio. front and the associated upper level short wave will move across the forecast area during the day wednesday. front will not exit area until thursday night. could see some lingering showers in the east thursday morning but high pressure builds in quickly thursday....ushering in cooler and drier conditions. this will be followed late friday with a second reinforcing shot of cold air with another cold front. for now will just go with a chance of showers. && long term /saturday through monday/... upper level trough will move into the forecast area saturday and begin its transition from a trough to a deepening upper level low by sunday morning. the upper level feature will then begin to lift northeast out of the area sunday night into monday as a weak upper level ridge builds into the forecast area for early next week. as the upper level low develops...a resultant surface low pressure will develop over eastern ohio and western pennsylvania saturday into saturday night. the surface low pressure system will move north and then retrograde back northwest by sunday night and then east on monday. surface high pressure will build east under the upper level ridge monday afternoon. due to the upper level low and surface low being present over the local area...the cyclonic flow across the great lakes will likely cause a lot of clouds to remain persistent across the area. for now...will continue with the partly cloudy/sunny forecast going over the weekend and then gradually improve conditions as subsidence develops under the surface high pressure monday. the other issue to deal with is the cold air advection expected to take place under the upper level low. a cold front is progged to move through the area saturday morning ushering in the cooler air mass. this air mass will hang around for the rest of the weekend and begin to retreat monday as high pressure builds east. && aviation /12z tuesday through saturday/... mainly high clouds will spread east into the forecast area as the day progresses. then...threat for showers and thunderstorms with mvfr visibilities possible after 00z this evening in the west and at erie. otherwise...rest of the taf sites should remain dry through the forecast period. exception is cleveland should see thunderstorm activity after 08z but will keep it as vcts. ceilings should remain predominantly vfr during the thunderstorms. winds should be 10 knots or less from the south southwest. outlook...non vfr likely in shra/tsra with a cold front wednesday. non vfr may linger into thursday morning. non-vfr possible on saturday with the next cold front. && marine... winds will remain light south to southwest through much of wednesday and then become variable in direction as wave of low pressure moves east over the lake wednesday afternoon. expecting winds to increase from the north to northwest for a period wednesday night after the cold front passes south of the area. but winds will diminish on thursday. may need a small craft advisory wednesday night for a brief period. otherwise...rest of the week into the weekend is looking like winds will remain fairly light from the north to northwest. not expecting any small craft advisories to be in effect from thursday on. && cle watches/warnings/advisories... oh...none. pa...none. marine...none. && $$ synopsis...djb near term...djb short term...djb long term...lombardy aviation...lombardy marine...lombardy hr.

unlikely. discussion...the air mass ahead of a line of tstms presently crossing lake mi continues to destabilize over lower mi -- s of widespread clouds and showers/elevated tstms over nrn parts of the state. with temperatures reaching the upper 70s to around 80f owing to insolation amidst dewpoints in the lower 70s...mlcape around 1000-2000 j/kg will contribute to maintenance and perhaps intensification of the aforementioned line of tstms. given nwd advance of the srn edge of denser cloud coverage ahead of the line of tstms -- per visible satellite trends -- buoyancy will likely build nwd across parts of cntrl lower mi -- associated with potential nwd development of the line of tstms. the grr vwp samples 40-50-kt mid-level wswly flow offering sufficient deep shear for maintained convective organization and perhaps line-embedded bowing segments. isolated svr wind gusts will be possible with this activity...particularly in areas where low-level lapse rates become relatively steeper owing to stronger insolation. however...with poor mid-level lapse rates in place...and stronger deep ascent removed well to the w/nw of the region...confidence in more than an isolated svr risk is limited -- though convective trends will continue to be monitored. ..cohen/hart.. 09/08/2015 ...please see www.spc.noaa.gov for graphic product... attn...wfo...dtx...apx...iwx...grr...

this afternoon across east-central il into northwest ind and extreme southwest mi. overall intensity of storms is expected to remain below severe limits and a watch is not expected. discussion...a few stronger storms may produce gusty winds this afternoon. a line of storms from near ord south/southwest into central il has shown signs of strengthening and becoming somewhat organized. while dewpoints in the mid/upper 60s exist downstream /resulting in weak to moderate instability/...a lack of stronger midlevel lapse rates and decreasing effective shear and forcing for ascent with southward extent will limit overall intensity/organization. that being said...steep low level lapse rates combined with around 20-30 kt flow at 850 mb could result in a few stronger wind gusts. in addition to sporadic strong wind gusts...some small hail also will be possible with stronger cells. however...a watch is not expected at this time given aforementioned limiting factors and the expectations any severe
