Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
408 PM EDT Fri Sep 21 2018

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front extending from low pressure over Quebec will shift east
of the area tonight, reaching the East Coast by Saturday morning.
High pressure will build east across the Great Lakes region on
Saturday then strengthen over Quebec on Sunday. A warm front will
lift north across the area on Monday.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
Continuing to monitor severe weather potential this afternoon ahead
of a cold front moving east across the area. At 3 PM the cold front
extended from near Toledo to Dayton. Thicker cloud field has
expanded out ahead of the front which will act as a limiting factor
for strengthening convection. ML Cape remains around 1000 J/kg
across NE Ohio and NW PA and this is the area we will be
monitoring through 8 PM. The expectation was that convection
would struggle with warm air in the mid-levels until the upper
trough expanded eastward across Michigan late this afternoon.
Eventually the better upper level forcing is expected to catch
the surface front with storms increasing in intensity. The flow
aloft remains quite strong and we have already seen gusts as
high as 40 mph mix down outside of showers. With 50 knots at 70
mph expanding east across Lake Erie into NW PA, it will not take
a very intense storm to bring down severe wind gusts. At this
point the severe threat appears greatest east of the I-77
corridor. It is possible that the stronger convection holds off
until reaching PA/New York later this evening. Strong winds
gusts continue to be the primary concern with downdraft CAPES of
1000 J/kg or more. These values drop off quickly to the west as
the cloud field fills in with conditions becoming less buoyant.

Winds shift to the northwest behind the front with strong cold
advection overnight. Deep layer dry air wraps in aloft, limiting the
potential for additional showers with the front. Low level moisture
off Lake Erie will expand beneath a strengthening inversion with
mostly cloudy skies lingering through much of the day on Saturday.
The cloud cover and much cooler airmass will limit high temperatures
to the lower 60s. Some gradual clearing is possible on Saturday
night but hard to pin down at this point and will likely hold on
closer to the lakeshore with northeast flow.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
The upper level weather pattern will be zonal Sunday with a surface
high pressure building in from southern Canada. Surface winds will
easterly and temperatures on Sunday will be seasonable for this time
of year. The upper level flow begins to amplify on Monday with a
large and deep trough developing across northern U.S. A warm front
will advance northward across the area Monday afternoon into Monday
night. Scattered showers and storms will be likely with the warm
front. Southerly winds up to 35 mph possible will return on Monday
along with low level moisture.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
A shortwave will move around the base of the trough into the Great
Lakes Region on Tuesday. A cold front will move southeastward into
the region on Tuesday. There will be enough shear and moisture for
organized storms Tuesday afternoon and night. The Storm Prediction
Center mentioned this potential for severe storms on the day 5
outlook. Lingering showers and storms may last through Wednesday
morning before high pressure and drier air moves back in Wednesday
afternoon. The pattern appears it will remain at a fast pace with
another trough and cold front moving through the region late next
week. Temperatures will generally be slightly above average despite
several cold front moving through.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z Friday THROUGH Wednesday/...
Main concern for this afternoon is timing and coverage of
thunderstorms along a cold front advancing east across the area.
Southwest winds will be gusty out ahead of the cold front with
gusts to 30-35 knots possible. As of 2 PM, the north to south
oriented cold front extended from eastern Michigan into western
Ohio with the first few storms starting to develop southwest of
Marion. Thunderstorms will fill in along the cold front as it
sweeps east this afternoon with the potential for strong wind
gusts, especially at CAK/YNG/ERI. Wind gusts to 50 knots will be
possible with the strongest storms and TAFs will be updated if
any of these approach the terminals. MVFR visibilities also
possible in thunderstorms. Cold front expected to be east of
the area by 00Z with winds shifting to the northwest and
eventually northeast by Saturday morning. As colder air filters
into the area behind the front, expecting an MVFR cloud deck to
expand between 6-12Z overnight and linger for much of Saturday.

OUTLOOK...Non-VFR fog possible Sunday morning, especially in NW
Ohio. Non-VFR showers possible Monday into Tuesday.

&&

.MARINE...
Rough boating conditions expected along the lake this evening as a
strong cold front crosses from west to east. A deepening area of low
pressure over Quebec will drive a fast moving cold front across the
lake, switching wind directions from sw to nw. Wind speeds in
advance of the front will be 25 to 30 knots at times. Despite strong
cold air advection behind the front, the low level jet will weaken
and the low levels will become more stable. This will allow wind
speeds to drop down below 25 knots by Saturday morning. High
pressure building over the lake will support light and variable
winds by Sunday into Monday. The high will slide east late Monday
with another deepening low pressure system expected to move to our
north on Tuesday driving another potent cold front across the lake.
A high swimming risk continues for all area beaches due to rough
wave action and risk of rip currents.

...BEACH HAZARDS STATEMENT IN EFFECT FROM 10 AM EDT THIS MORNING
THROUGH LATE TONIGHT...

This Hazardous Weather Outlook is for north central Ohio, northeast
Ohio and northwest Pennsylvania.

.DAY ONE...Today and Tonight.

There is an enhanced risk of severe thunderstorms across Northeast
Ohio into Northwest Pennsylvania this afternoon into early evening.
Thunderstorms are expected to develop along a cold front as it moves
into northwest Ohio early in the afternoon. These thunderstorms will
have the potential of producing strong damaging winds as they sweep
eastward across the region.

Also of concern is the development of thunderstorms ahead of the
front along a lake induced boundary that will be located from eastern
Cuyahoga county northeastward into northwest Pennsylvania. These
thunderstorms have a greater potential of being isolated supercells
which could produce strong damaging winds, large hail or a tornado.

Please listen to NOAA Weather Radio or go to weather.gov on the
Internet for more information about the following hazards.
