Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
322 PM EST Mon Dec 19 2016

.SYNOPSIS...
High pressure over southern Illinois will move across Ohio
tonight on it's way to the east coast Tuesday. A ridge from the
high will linger over the local area through Wednesday. Low
pressure from the Northern Plains will move across the central
Great Lakes Wednesday night into Thursday pulling a cold front
across the area by daybreak Thursday. High pressure will spread
across the Ohio Valley Thursday night into Friday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
Temperatures remain cold this afternoon as an arctic airmass
lingers over the region. Have seen a lot of diurnal clouds develop
across the area this afternoon but these should go away after
sunset leaving skies clear overnight. Temperature forecast is
tough for tonight as warm air advection will be ongoing. 850 mb
temps by 12z Tuesday will be 8 to 10 degrees warmer than they
were at 12z this morning. Will see a quick dip right after sunset
with temps likely rising overnight. The big question is figuring
out how far temps will fall before they start to rebound. Will try
for lows about 10 degrees cooler than current readings which matches
up nicely with guidance lows. Have gone a little cooler than
guidance at the traditional cool spots like Wooster.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 AM TUESDAY MORNING THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
The short term period will be very quiet especially when compared
to the weather the past few weeks. High pressure and warming will
dominate Tuesday. There should be more sunshine than today in the
east. The quiet weather will persist into early Wednesday night.
The models have been consistent and similar keeping the brunt of
the precip associated with the low moving across the central lakes
north of the area. Would have liked to keep the southern end of
the area completely dry on Thursday as this feature passes but
have had to continue with small chances to match up with
neighboring offices. The east end of the area has legitimate
chances for some light snow but accums will be under an inch.
There is a brief window for some lake effect on the back side of
the system Thursday night but little in the way of accumulation is
expected from that either. Guidance temps seem reasonable.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
The long term period begins dry on Friday with high pressure over
the eastern CONUS. Models continuing to differ with potential precip
late Friday night/Saturday as mid/upper level wave ejects from the
Baja region toward the southern Great Lakes. ECMWF continues to be
quicker/bring more energy with the wave, tapping into Pacific/GOMEX
moisture and bringing precip late Friday night through Saturday.
Meanwhile the GFS is more delayed with shortwave energy ejection and
keeping most of the area dry through Saturday. The GEM paints a
compromise of these two solutions. For know, will just carry slight
chance pops Friday after midnight through Saturday.

Focus then turns to precip chances Saturday night through Sunday as
return flow/isentropic ascent affects the region in response to
deepening western CONUS trof/Plains cyclone. Models are in decent
agreement for the Sunday time frame with strong WAA and above normal
temperatures. Predominant p-type should be rain based on model
soundings from the Saturday night through Sunday night time frame,
albeit confidence remains low at this point. Models being to diverge
as strong cyclone pushes a cold front through the area next Monday,
as the ECMWF brings another arctic airmass into the region by
Tuesday, while the GFS keeps temps seasonal with a more zonal
thermal profile.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z Monday THROUGH Saturday/...
Mainly VFR conditions expected through the TAF period as surface
high pressure builds across the region. Band of lake effect
snow/IFR conditions impacting KERI this morning is pushing north
onto the lake, and expect rapid improvement to VFR in the next
hour or two. Aside for some MVFR clouds from KYNG to KERI this
afternoon, primarily clear skies expected through the period at
the terminals. Winds will begin to increase across the area after
15Z Tuesday as a trough pushes east across the Great Lakes.

OUTLOOK...Non-VFR possible Thursday as a cold front moves across
the forecast area.

&&

.MARINE...
High pressure will continue to drift east across the region through
tonight. Southwest flow will begin to increase late tonight into
Tuesday morning in response to tightening gradient as low pressure
moves east across Ontario. Fairly strong 925mb jet of 40-50kts will
push east across Lake Erie tomorrow afternoon. Surface winds will
ramp up briefly to 25-30 kts across the lake, and will hoist a small
craft advisory from Vermilion eastward starting 18Z. Confidence too
low for gales over the open waters at this point, given weakening
low level jet, brief nature of the quickly moving jet, and fairly
strong inversion at 950mb, however a few gusts to gales cannot be
ruled out from 21Z to 03Z.

&&
