Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
208 PM EDT Wed Jul 20 2022

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure will move east across the Upper Great Lakes, extending
a cold front across the region this evening into the overnight.
Weak high pressure will build in across the area for Thursday and
Friday. An unsettled weather pattern may return for the weekend.
Temperatures will be seasonable warm to slightly above average
going into this weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Severe thunderstorm watch has been issued this afternoon for the
western half of the forecast area. Still some question with the
coverage of storms given very dry mid level air and somewhat
unimpressive upstream mid level lapse rates per SPC
mesoanalysis, although 17Z DTX RAOB indicates slightly better
lapse rates. Ample instability ahead of the front with
increasing deep layer bulk shear promotes a favorable
environment for convection to develop and persist through the
western half of the area this afternoon into this evening. The
primary concern for a lack of more organized or widespread
convective development is the dry air aloft and potentially
weak mid level lapse rates advecting into the area.

Current radar/sat trends show an area of a agitated CU along a
low level boundary entering northwest OH. Convection has ramped
up across the northern fringe of the boundary in lower Michigan,
and expecting more robust convective activity to materialize
over the next hour or two near the western edge of the forecast
area Damaging winds are the primary threat with ample dry air
aloft and steep low level lapse rates, but a tornado or two
cannot be ruled out with somewhat favorable low level helicity,
0-3km CAPE, and LCLs near 1000m. If the storms become more
organized, the severe threat may persist farther east into the
area which would necessitate a watch extension.

Any lingering convective activity will push east of the forecast
area after midnight, with a few stray showers possible towards
daybreak as a secondary mid level trough swings through the
eastern Great Lakes.

Weak high pressure builds in for Thursday behind the exiting
storm system and frontal passage. We will be another nice, fair
weather day with temperatures just about seasonable into the
middle and upper 80s Thursday afternoon with a touch of drier
air and lower humidity. Surface dewpoints will fall back down
into the lower 60s by the afternoon

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY NIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/...
An upper level trough associated with a departing low pressure over
Quebec will gradually weaken and become near zonal by Saturday. A
weak surface ridge and associated dry air over the area on Friday
should inhibit widespread shower activity, although scattered
showers are possible especially in NE OH and NW PA as a vort max
passes over the area along the departing trough. This weak surface
ridge will shift east of the area on Saturday, allowing for
southwest flow to again become established across the area. This
will usher in more moisture and increase temperatures for the first
half of the weekend. Chances of showers increase on Saturday evening
into the overnight hours as a shortwave trough provides upper level
support for shower development ahead of an approaching cold front.
Exact timing of onset of precipitation remains uncertain as it is
highly dependent on the progression of a low over Quebec and the
arrival of the shortwave trough. For now, opted for chance PoPs
through Saturday night.

Highs on Friday will climb into the low 90s, climbing into the mid
90s on Saturday once the WAA kicks in. Dewpoints will climb into the
upper 60s to low 70s on Saturday, making for a hot and muggy
day.

&&

.LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH TUESDAY/...
The long term period remains in a fairly active weather pattern as
the upper level trough persists to the north of the area and the
upper level ridge remains over the southern contiguous US. On
Sunday, chances of showers and thunderstorms move across the area as
a cold front associated with a low pressure over Quebec provides
additional support to the upper level shortwave trough. Forecast
MUCAPE values of 1000-2000 J/kg ahead of the front on Sunday will
enhance thunderstorm potential, especially in the afternoon and
early evening hours. If the front slows down at all, additional
daytime heating ahead of the boundary may raise the instability and
impact the overall forecast on timing and severity of storms.
Another thing to monitor will be the potential for heavy rainfall
and localized flooding potential as deep warm cloud layers and ample
moisture in the vertical will lead to efficient rainfall rates.

On Monday, showers will diminish from north to south, possibly
allowing a brief period of dry weather to occur as a weak surface
ridge builds over the area behind the departing front. After Monday,
much of the forecast remains uncertain as models are not consistent
in the timing of the departing front or the arrival of another upper
level shortwave. Aside from source of lift, moisture may be limited
depending on the position of the ridge and overall flow. This will
need to continue to be monitored as Monday night into Tuesday may be
the next round of potential heavy rainfall.

Highs on Sunday will be the warmest in the period, reaching into the
mid to upper 80s before gradually cooling into the low 80s behind
the departing front. Overnight temperatures will linger in the
60s.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z Wednesday THROUGH Monday/...
VFR conditions are expected at the terminals through most of the
period, with the primary focus on TSRA potential from west to
east from 18Z through 06Z. A broken line of SHRA/TSRA is
expected to progress eastward across northern OH through this
evening, pushing east of KYNG/KERI by 06Z. Only confident
enough for small windows of TEMPO TSRA for the western
terminals, with a VCTS mention east. Any storms that impact
terminals could produce brief gusts up to 50 kts, especially at
KTOL, KFDY, KMFD and possibly KCLE through 02Z. Brief reductions
to MVFR or even IFR possible with the storms. Generally VFR
conditions expected behind the front from 06Z through the end of
the period aside from a stray SHRA/MVFR cig at KERI near 12Z.
Southwest winds with gusts of 20-25 kts early in the period will
become more westerly by the end of the period.

Outlook...Non-VFR possible again with isolated to scattered
showers and thunderstorms on Saturday and Sunday.

&&

.MARINE...
Southwest winds will continue to increase through the afternoon as a
cold front approaches from the west. Winds over the western and
central basins will increase to 15-20 knots, with the eastern basin
winds staying 10-15 knots. With offshore flow, the highest waves are
expected to be along the northern shore of Lake Erie. For this
reason, opted to not issue a small craft at this time, but will
continue to monitor for potentially higher winds. As the cold front
move across the area this evening into the overnight hours, the
chance of strong to severe thunderstorms is expected to increase,
which may produce local wind gusts near 60 knots. Behind the front,
winds will become west-southwest at 10-15 knots, which will persist
into the weekend. These winds will briefly uptick on Thursday
afternoon to 15-20 knots for the central and eastern basins, which
may require a small craft to be issued.
