Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
425 PM EDT Thu Jun 15 2023

.SYNOPSIS...
Low pressure will pull a cold front southeast across the area this
evening. A trough will linger over the eastern Great Lakes on
Friday. A ridge of high pressure will return for the weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
The forecast area resides between a ridge of high pressure over
western Pennsylvania and surface low pressure over southern lower
Michigan. Moisture is pooling near and immediately ahead of this
feature with dewpoints approaching 60 degrees along the I-75
corridor while holding steady or slowly starting to increase in the
east. The combination of smoke and increasing cirrus has limiting
warming and lowered high temperatures into the 70s for most
areas. Mixed layer CAPE is near 1000 J/kg ahead of low pressure
in eastern Indiana and expecting instability to increase across
mainly NW Ohio this evening as low level moisture continues to
increase. Instability is expected to peak through about 7 PM
before we lose heating and experience some marginal stabilization
of the boundary layer.

Cumulus cloud field has developed from near Lansing southwest into
northern Indiana along the cold front. Overall deep layer
moisture is less than previously expected as evident by
considerable dry air in the low level water vapor imagery. This
may result in lower coverage of showers and thunderstorms but
have only lowered pops by 10-20 percent given stronger forcing
is yet to arrive. Potent upper level low continues to pivot
south across Michigan late this afternoon with a few
thunderstorms starting to develop over Central Lower Michigan.
We do still expect showers and thunderstorms to develop as the
stronger forcing interacts with the surface front reaching NW
Ohio towards 23Z. In addition, activity that develops over
southeast Michigan may consolidate over Lake Erie and eventually
move onshore near and east of Cleveland as the surface low
crosses the lake later this evening. The area is included in a
marginal risk for severe weather as shear increases with a jet
streak at 500mb rounding the base of the trough. Main window
for any strong to severe thunderstorms will be from 5-10 PM
although may start to see some CIN developing after 8 PM. Main
severe weather concerns this evening are a few wind gusts of
50-60 mph and hail to quarter size. There is some backing of the
low level flow ahead of the low and can not rule out some
rotation in the atmosphere but LCLs are likely to be too high
for much of a tornado concern.

Rain showers will linger in the east overnight with cold advection
ramping up behind the front. Low clouds also arrive behind this
low so minimum temperatures are only expected to drop into the
low to mid 50s. Scattered showers may linger across eastern Ohio
and Pennsylvania through midday on Friday with the upper trough
overhead. Clearing from the northwest will be gradual through
the afternoon as high pressure builds into the western Great
Lakes. Conditions continue to dry on Friday night with lows in
the upper 40s to lower 50s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
Upper level ridging and surface high pressure will build over
the area from the west during the day Saturday and into the
weekend. This ridge begins to weaken as it moves eastward on
Sunday as an upper low attempts to move into the Ohio/Tennessee
Valley. We should stay dry through the short term as the surface
low remains far enough to the south of our area. Highs will be
on the increase this weekend with Saturday's highs rise into the
upper 80s across western Ohio, mid 70s in central Ohio, and low
70s across eastern Ohio and NW PA. By Sunday, highs in the low
to mid 80s will be common areawide with the exception of NW PA
with highs in the upper 70s.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Upper low over the Ohio Valley may provide enough low level moisture
and upper level support to provide some shower/thunderstorm chances
during the long term period. Temperatures will gradually cool down
next week with highs starting in the mid to upper 80s on Monday with
highs in the upper 70s by Thursday.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z Thursday THROUGH Tuesday/...
All terminals remain VFR with thickening high cloud this
afternoon. Thunderstorms are expected to develop late this
afternoon into this evening ahead of low pressure moving
southeast into the area. Overall the atmosphere appears drier
and timing of thunderstorms has slowed by an hour or two at all
terminals. Still included a tempo of 2-3 hours at each terminal
with thunderstorms, gusty winds of 30-35 knots, and rain with
MVFR or IFR visibilities. Sky conditions are expected to remain
VFR until precipitation arrives. This low pressure system will
pull a cold front south across the area with ceilings dropping
to MVFR and likely IFR for a 3-5 hour window, mainly between
9-14Z. Showers will linger overnight and even into Friday
morning across Northeast Ohio and Northwest Pennsylvania.

Winds will tend to out of the south or southwest ahead of the
low pressure system, eventually shifting to the west and then north
behind the low with the wind shift occurring between 09-15Z.

Outlook...Scattered rain showers linger into Friday afternoon
and night across NW Pennsylvania.

&&

.MARINE...
Low pressure and its associated cold front will move southeast
across the lake overnight tonight. High pressure then builds in
behind this low through the weekend. Light and southeasterly winds
ahead of the cold front become northerly at 10-15 knots by Friday
morning. Northerly flow remains over the lake until high pressure
takes hold over our area by late Saturday night and winds will
decrease and become light and variable through the rest of the
weekend. Easterly flow 10-15 knots then takes hold as we become
sandwiched between two low pressure systems.
