the area overnight. a deepening trough aloft will be slow to move east this weekend and chilly weather will prevail. high pressure will build east across the area by monday. the high will become nearly stationary over the appalachian mountains by mid week and a warmer southwest flow will develop. && near term /until 6 am saturday morning/... short wave evident on the water vapor loop rounding the bottom of the trough and deepening the trough. this has slowed the advancement of the rain just a bit. slowed the eastward movement in the forecast overnight by an hour or two. most areas from north central and northeast oh and northwest pa will see showers much of the remainder of the night although by morning we should be in more of a lake enhanced event. with the north flow... the best showers could linger from norwalk to ashland to cleveland and the snowbelt. since the weather has been dry across most of northeast oh and northwest pa the last 6-8 weeks... we can accommodate a fair amount of rain. will have to monitor the qpf in the heavier lake enhanced bands that may develop. made a few minor adjustments to overnight temps...the air mass is relatively uniform with the clouds... breeze and showers. lows in the 50s except at the immediate lakeshore. && short term /6 am saturday morning through monday night/... another deep digging upper level trough will settle in over the great lakes region. this feature is not expected to be long lived as the upper level pattern remains progressive. the upper level low will keep cold air advection across the forecast area through the weekend along with low level cyclonic flow around low pressure that is progged to move north up the appalachian mountains at the surface. this will keep a flow of low level moisture out of the north on the back side of the low pressure system. the cyclonic flow will continue to produce some showers across the eastern half of the area but most of it will be synoptic in nature. there is a possibility that some lake enhancement could occur causing slightly higher qpf amounts in the higher elevations to the east. the rest of the area should remain on the fringes of the precipitation threat and therefore will have lighter precipitation chances. the other issue that may just be confined to the water of lake erie is the potential for some thunderstorms. instability will be the greatest over the water during the weekend. another threat for the land portions near the lake is the possibility for waterspouts as showers develop and move inland. all of these threats will last through the day sunday. then...as high pressure builds east toward the forecast area and upper level and surface lows move out to the east...the threat for precipitation will gradually diminish sunday into monday. a return to fair weather is expected on monday and monday night with the approaching high. temperatures will be on the cool side in the cold air advection but as high moves east of the region...a return back to warm air advection is expected late monday into tuesday. && long term /tuesday through friday/... above normal conditions return by mid week. models in good agreement with high pressure anchored over the upper ohio valley/lower lakes to start long term forecast. high drifts slowly east and moves off the mid atlantic coast by end of work week allowing next front to move into the area. ecmwf continues to be faster with the next system than the gfs but both models move next wave of precip into the area during the day friday...and lingering into the weekend. but this far out will just go with low chance pops. && aviation /00z saturday through wednesday/... the surface cold front has cleared the area with northerly flow at all areas. most of the area continues to see showers. most of the area is vfr but there are pockets of mvfr and even ifr floating around. think cigs will gradually deteriorate overnight with most areas settling into mvfr. think the ifr weather will be short lived where it does develop. northerly flow will continue the entire period so no clearing is expected even though slightly drier air will move in tomorrow. eastern areas will see scattered showers most of saturday with mainly mvfr weather. winds overnight will mainly be 10 knots or less but some gusts to 20 knots are expected on saturday...especially closer to lake erie. outlook...non vfr continuing through the weekend...especially for ne oh and nw pa in scattered showers/tsra. && marine... cold front over central lake erie will move east of the lake early this evening. small craft advisory will likely be needed for the entire weekend. as the front moves across the lake the winds will turn to the north and increase to 10 to 20 knots tonight and to 15 to 25 knots saturday. tomorrow 850mb temps plunge to 6-8c and an upper level short wave will move slowly across the lake. this will produce lake effect showers and thunderstorms and potential for water spouts. && cle watches/warnings/advisories... oh...none. pa...none. marine...small craft advisory until 4 pm edt sunday for lez142>149. && $$ synopsis...kosarik near term...kosarik short
