What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this small craft advisory went out, as it sent them, from the Iowa Environmental Mesonet's archive of National Weather Service text.

NWS Cleveland, OH wrote its last area forecast discussion before this small craft advisory went out at Dec 16, 1:11 PM EST, 2 hours 33 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Dec 16, 1:11 PM EST, 2 hours 33 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
111 PM EST Mon Dec 16 2019

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure will move northeast through the Ohio Valley tonight
with a stationary front extending northeast from the low. A weak
low pressure system will move southeast through the eastern
Great Lakes by Wednesday and dissipate. High pressure will build
slowly east over the local area by Wednesday night.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY/...
No update planned early this afternoon, but a full forecast
update is forthcoming and will be published by 4 PM this
afternoon.

Based on latest trends in short-term model guidance, still
expect precip to overspread our CWA from south to north late
this afternoon and through this evening as isentropic lift
strengthens amidst sufficient moisture and the surface low moves
northeastward from the Lower Mississippi River Valley to
eastern Kentucky. On Tuesday morning, precip will gradually end
from west to east as the surface low moves farther northeastward
toward the New York City area. However, precip may be heavy at
times Tuesday morning as frontogenetical convergence aloft,
ahead of a shortwave trough at/near 700 mb, could allow strong
mesoscale bands of precip to develop. At this time, the bulk of
precip is expected to fall as snow, but freezing rain or rain
could mix-in at times. This mixed precip is contingent on the
vertical profiles of temperature and humidity along with the
presence or absence of ice nucleation in cloud cover.

In general, snow totals look to reach a coating to 3 inches
across our CWA with ice accumulations totaling about a tenth of
an inch or less through Tuesday morning. Will continue to
evaluate additional 12Z/Monday model guidance before deciding
whether to expand our Winter Weather Advisory to other counties
in our CWA. The rest of the near-term forecast remains valid.

Previous Discussion...

A deep digging upper level trough will move east into the
Central Plains states by Tuesday afternoon and force an upper
level ridge east of the area. A surface low pressure system
over southern Texas will begin to move northeast today along a
stationary front. The combination of an upper level positive
vorticity maximum moving east through the Great Lakes region and
the stationary front and associated moisture will continue to
produce some light snow across the area. The back edge of the
precipitation continues to push east and the threat will end
from west to east this morning. A bit of fair weather will be
the rule for today until the low pressure over Texas moves
closer to the area. A surge of moisture with the low pressure
system will move into the area and spread snow initially into
the region. Snow accumulations will range from 2 to 4 inches in
the northeast and 1 to 3 inches across the rest of the area.
Lowest amounts will occur in Toledo with only about a half an
inch accumulation. Then, as warmer air advection in the mid
levels takes place, there will be a minor intrusion of air that
will touch the freezing mark and will change snow over to
freezing rain mainly across the southern tier counties. There is
the possibility that a bit of freezing rain could occur a bit
further north for a short period but confidence across this area
is low. But to the south, expecting up to 0.03" of ice
accumulation and will warrant a winter weather advisory. Timing
appears to be best late evening but with early onset, will begin
the advisory at 7 PM and continue it through the morning hours
Tuesday when the low passes to the east-northeast. Once this
occurs, cold air will begin to wrap around the low pressure
system into the forecast area.

Temperatures will recover from the upper 20s to around 30
degrees this morning into the middle 30s for highs today as a
push of slightly warmer air moves north. Lows tonight will drop
into the middle 20s extreme east and west and upper 20s to
around 30 degrees central portions. Coldest temperatures will
occur tonight briefly toward sunrise but then begin to rise
through the lower 30s in the morning to middle 30s for highs.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
A synoptic storm system will be exiting the region by Tuesday
evening with a westerly surface flow over the region Tuesday
evening. Some scattered lake effect snow showers will be possible
for the primary Snowbelt region Tuesday evening as 850 mb
temperatures fall to around -10C. The next system to watch will be
rapidly digging across the upper Great Lakes Tuesday evening. A
sharp upper level trough will quickly dig down through the Great
Lakes Tuesday night with a quick shot of modified Arctic air for the
mid week. Surface winds will shift northwesterly behind the
reinforcing cold front by early Wednesday morning. Temperatures will
likely slowly fall during the day on Wednesday. 850 mb temperatures
will fall to around -20C by midday. Upper air forecast soundings
show lake induced CAPE values approaching 900 J/KG with extreme
instability along with a window of weak shear. Wednesday morning
through Wednesday evening looks like a good setup for organized lake
effect snow bands for the primary and perhaps the secondary snowbelt
region. Due to the nature of the cold airmass, snow ratios will be
more efficient with this potential lake effect snow event for mid
week. At least moderate snowfall accumulations look very possible.
The lake effect snow machine will slowly dissipate by early Thursday
morning with weaker winds due to high pressure near by. Thursday
morning will likely be our coldest morning with temperatures falling
the upper single digits to lower teens. Light southerly winds and
some sunshine slowly return late on Thursday.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
A southerly flow for the end of the week will moderate temperatures
back to the 40s by the weekend. A weak fast moving clipper like
system will move across the Great Lakes region on Saturday with
light snow showers possible closer to the lakeshore into northwest
Pennyslvania. The main system or more impactful weather may stay
just north of the lake with the forecast track. A front or wind
shift will move across the eastern Great Lakes Saturday night into
Sunday with a return to northwesterly surface winds. This shift and
slightly colder air aloft may bring the potential for additional
lake effect snow showers late in the weekend.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z Monday THROUGH Saturday/...
As a surface low moves northeastward along a frontal boundary,
it will advance from the Lower Mississippi River Valley early
this afternoon to near NJ by 18Z/Tue. This low will cause
primarily VFR ceilings over our area early this afternoon to
lower to mainly MVFR or IFR this evening. Ceilings will then
gradually improve to VFR or disappear altogether from west to
east over northern OH Tuesday morning, yet MVFR to IFR ceilings
should persist over northwest PA.

Precipitation will overspread the region from south to north
between about 20Z/Mon and 04Z/Tue. The precip should then end
from west to east over northern OH between about 10Z and
18Z/Tue, while precip should persist farther east in northwest
PA. Precip is expected to fall mainly as snow. However, the snow
may mix with or change to freezing rain at times south of a
KFDY to KBFD line between about 03Z and 10Z/Tue. This includes
KMFD, KCAK, and KYNG. Visibility will trend MVFR to IFR in the
wintry precip, but may reach LIFR in bursts of heavier snow.

Surface winds initially out of the east or northeast will
gradually back to northwesterly during the TAF period. These
winds may gust up to 20 to 25 knots at times Tuesday morning.

.OUTLOOK...Non-VFR possible with lake effect snow in the
snowbelt later Tuesday through Thursday.

&&

.MARINE...
The wind flow will be light and variable on the lake today with a
gradual shift to northeasterly winds 5 to 10 knots late in the day.
Northeasterly to northerly winds will increase late tonight into
early Tuesday as low pressure develop and strengthens across the
Ohio Valley. Waves will also increase with the onshore flow along
the lakeshore. As the low pressure exits the region Tuesday, winds
will shift to westerly up to 25 knots. A stronger cold front and
push of Arctic air will move across the lake Tuesday night into
Wednesday. Small Craft Advisory conditions will return for the mid
week time frame. Calmer marine conditions are forecast for most of
Thursday through Friday as northwesterly winds gradually shift to
southerly and then southeasterly.
