What forecasters said that day

The local office's own words before this severe thunderstorm warning 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 severe thunderstorm warning went out at Aug 8, 3:52 PM EDT, 3 hours 33 minutes earlier.

Area forecast discussion, Aug 8, 3:52 PM EDT, 3 hours 33 minutes before
Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
352 PM EDT Mon Aug 8 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will slowly move southeast across the area tonight
into Tuesday morning. Behind the front, high pressure will
build southeast across the Great Lakes, persisting into Wednesday.
Another cold front will move south across the Great Lakes on
Thursday, with high pressure building in behind it for the
weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
Mid-level trough and upper-level trough are located across the
northern Great Lakes with surface low near Lake Huron extending
a cold front southwest across lower Michigan and northern
Indiana towards the central Mississippi Valley, all of which
are providing weak synoptic-scale lift across the area.
Anomalous moisture content is residing over the area with
surface dew points as high as 78 being observed (at KFDY) and
RAP mesoanalysis placing PWAT values over 2" across much of the
area, which is near the max moving average for the area,
according to the SPC sounding climatology. This environment, in
combination with weak synoptic lift, is more than sufficient for
the development of thunderstorms. Convective initiation has
already across across portions of northern Indiana, southern
Michigan and northwest Ohio. High moisture content and daytime
heating from earlier has allowed for MUCAPE of up to 3500 J/kg,
sufficient for strong updrafts despite the weak forcing and
mid-level lapse rates. Theta-e differences of near 25 C suggest
the potential for strong to perhaps near severe wind gusts
within the strongest storms this afternoon into early this
evening, mainly for northwest Ohio and perhaps into north-
central Ohio. This is despite weak deep layer wind shear of only
~20 knots. Storms will move east into a much weaker environment
located over central Ohio, northeast Ohio and northwest
Pennsylvania, so storms should evolve into a weakening state by
late evening into tonight.

With a degree of mean cloud layer wind near parallel to the
forcing mechanism (cold front), somewhat slow storm motions, and
very high moisture content, locally heavy rain could produce
localized flash flooding, if we are to observe training of
thunderstorms. This may be hard to do as weak advection should
limit training of storms. Best potential for flooding would be
northwest Ohio where the greatest instability is.

Rain showers overspread the area tonight, though thunderstorm
potential is limited due to limited and weakening instability
overnight. Rain showers end from north to south Tuesday through
Tuesday night as the cold front moves through. Significantly
cooler temperatures are ushered in with the cold front as we go
from heat indices in the 90s this afternoon to high
temperatures in the mid to upper 70s on Tuesday.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
The cold front will slowly push south of the region Wednesday
morning as 1020 mb surface high pressure attempts to build in from
the northern Great Lakes. A few showers lingering along and south of
the US 30 corridor in the morning will end by afternoon with
increasing sunshine as drier air and subsidence work into the
region. Dew points will be lower, falling into the low 60s, but the
real airmass change will wait for the passage of a second front
which will come Thursday. As the surface high weakens and shifts
east Wednesday night, a strong mid/upper shortwave will drop into
the central Great Lakes while deepening the longwave mid/upper
troughing over the Great Lakes and NE CONUS in the process. This
shortwave will push the aforementioned second cold front south
across the region Thursday morning and early afternoon. Moisture
return ahead of the boundary is very limited due to an already
northwesterly boundary layer flow, but upper forcing from the left
exit of a 70-90 knot H3 jet streak should induce sufficient low-
level convergence to generate a broken line of showers along and
ahead of the front, so blended in higher PoPs compared to NBM for
Thursday morning into the afternoon. Surface heating ahead of the
front will also lead to at least weak instability, so isolated
thunderstorms are possible as well. Behind the front, strong surface
high pressure (Canadian high) will build into the Great Lakes and
Ohio Valley Thursday night. This will filter in a refreshing airmass
with dew points dropping into the 50s Thursday evening and Thursday
night.

Highs Wednesday will range from the upper 70s to mid 80s (warmest in
NW Ohio) cooling into the mid 70s to low 80s Thursday. Lows
Wednesday night will range from the upper 50s to mid 60s (coolest in
far NE Ohio and NW PA) with widespread mid 50s to low 60s Thursday
night.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
The strong surface high will remain in control Friday through Sunday
while gradually shifting from the central Great Lakes and Ohio
Valley into the Northeast US and central Appalachians by Sunday.
This along with a highly amplified pattern characterized by deep
longwave troughing over the eastern CONUS downstream from a massive
ridge (heat dome) over the Rockies and Plains will keep our region
in cool, dry NW flow leading to picture perfect summer weather.
Highs Friday and Saturday will generally be in the mid/upper 70s
with crisp overnight lows in the low/mid 50s. It will feel more like
a fall airmass! Return flow starting to develop behind the departing
high Sunday will increase high temperatures into the upper 70s/low
80s, but dew points will remain pleasant. The upstream mid/upper
ridge tries to build a bit farther east into the Mississippi Valley
late Sunday and Monday while meeting resistance from the continued
deep troughing in the eastern CONUS. The resultant warm air
advection/theta e advection combined with weak shortwaves rippling
through the NW flow will ignite convection in the Mississippi
Valley, and several models try and bring showers into the region
from this activity Sunday afternoon. However, with the surface high
slow to move away and very dry airmass in place, feel this is way
too far east, so kept conditions dry through Sunday. However, kept
slight chance PoPs from NBM Sunday night and Monday as a more
defined shortwave drops through the Great Lakes and interacts with
what will probably be a tight baroclinic zone draped from NW to SE
near the western Great Lakes. Highs Monday will warm more solidly
into the low 80s with gradually increasing humidity.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z Monday THROUGH Saturday/...
Isolated to scattered showers remain across the area,
particularly in northwest Pennsylvania. Patchy MVFR ceilings
may accompany these showers through about 19Z. Otherwise, VFR
conditions expected through the first few hours of the TAF
period.

Convection will develop to the west in southern Michigan and
northern Indiana. Already starting to see convective initiation
in lower Michigan on radar as of 18Z. Convective coverage should
increase over the next few hours with a WSW to ENE line
developing to the west before moving into northwest Ohio and
Lake Erie around 21-23Z this evening. A very moist environment
should support moderate instability in this region, with strong,
gusty winds possible across portions of northwest Ohio and
north-central Ohio. Storms move into central Ohio, northeast
Ohio, and northwest Pennsylvania later tonight. These areas have
a much weaker storm environment, resulting in convective
weakening and lower storm coverage. For these reason, opted to
include only VCSH for TAF sites that are farther east, as
confidence in thunderstorms is low for these areas. As scattered
showers build in, widespread lower clouds also move in, quickly
dropping from VFR to IFR at all locations tonight through
tomorrow morning. Periods lower visibilities will also be
possible. Ceilings should rise back to MVFR by early tomorrow
afternoon, with signs of cloud coverage scattering out from
north to south tomorrow afternoon.

Southwest winds of 10-15 knots are expected this afternoon with
gusts up to 20-24 knots. Higher wind gusts may be possible with
thunderstorms, especially for northwest Ohio this
afternoon/evening. Winds quickly decrease to 8 knots or less with
sunset, veering to out of the north by tomorrow morning.

Outlook...Non-VFR with patchy fog possible Tuesday night into
Wednesday morning. Non-VFR also possible with isolated rain
showers on Thursday.

&&

.MARINE...
Continued the Small Craft Advisory for the nearshore zones from
Geneva to Ripley as W to SW winds nearing 20 knots at times generate
3 to 5 foot waves ahead of a cold front which will cross the lake
late tonight. It is a marginal Small Craft advisory since the
strongest winds are in the open waters, but recent observations and
the latest model data support a continued threat for the
aforementioned winds and waves. Farther west across the central
basin, winds do get into the 15-20 knot range early tonight, but
waves should stay 2 to 4 feet. The highest risk of rip currents will
continue to be at the lakeshores of Ashtabula and Erie Counties with
more of a moderate risk offshore of Lake County.

Winds switch to N behind the cold front late tonight while
decreasing to 10-15 knots, and N winds of 5-10 knots will continue
Tuesday and Tuesday night becoming W Wednesday into Wednesday night.
Another cold front will cross the lake Thursday morning, and NW
winds behind it will increase to 10-15 knots before becoming N and
increasing to 15-20 knots Thursday night. The Thursday and Thursday
night time period could approach Small Craft Advisory criteria again
along with at least moderate risks for rip currents. N winds will
generally decrease to 5-10 knots Friday through Saturday.
