Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
632 PM EDT Sun Jun 25 2023

.SYNOPSIS...
A warm front extending from low pressure over Wisconsin will
move eastward across the area today and may stall near the south
shore of Lake Erie. This will be followed by a cold front
sweeping eastward across the area tonight. Low pressure slowly
drifts east across the Great Lakes region through mid week.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/...
Minimal changes to the forecast.

Looks like the dry air at middle levels of the atmosphere are
getting entrained into the storms. This has led to just pockets
of stronger wind gusts and an occasional stronger core that may
contain hail. The outflow boundary is outrunning the storms at
the moment but we are still advecting a narrow area of
instability into the western CWA.

Still a few showers and a rumble of thunder cross NW PA along
outflow boundaries. This may also be near the warm front.

Previous Discussion...
The atmosphere has been behaving so far. The outflow boundary
from the morning convection has been able to generate some weak
convection from Stark County northward to Cuyahoga and Lake
Counties. These have struggled in the slightly drier air. The
atmosphere across the western CWA has recovered as we wait for
the instability moves into the region from the west. We will
continue to monitor the interaction of the outflow/differential
heating boundary and lake breeze boundary from Lake County to
Erie County, PA.

The main show still should occur ahead of the cold front that
is moving across Indiana. 7H jet will interact with the current
convection that is over Indiana and assist with its development
in a very unstable airmass (mixed layer CAPE 2000+). The shear
across the region is adequate but with numerous boundaries (warm
front, outflow, lake boundary) moving across the region we will
need to watch for storms latching onto a boundary and potentially
spinning something up. Still think a squall line/QLCS develops
after we see discrete cells over Indiana. NW Ohio has the best
chances of seeing strong damaging winds and large hail.

Storms likely move into the western CWA 5 pm to 7 pm then
continue eastward through the remainder of the evening. The
central CWA should be impacted 7 pm to 9 pm. Will monitor NE OH
into NW PA for development near the warm front and lake breeze
interaction. There may be a couple rounds of thunder for a few
locations.

Things calm down a bit after midnight as the cold front races across
the region. The cool upper level low will remain over the region
through Monday with periods of rain anticipated. If we are able
to get any heating Monday afternoon ahead of a secondary cold
front there could be a threat for some small hail from the
stronger convection that develops. Highs Monday in the 70's.

Coverage of the showers should decrease a bit after sunset
Monday but we should continue to see scattered coverage,
especially across NE OH into NW PA. Lows Monday night dip to
within a couple degrees of 60.

&&

.SHORT TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT/...
A large mid/upper closed low will continue to slowly move east
across southern Ontario Province Tuesday before opening up into a
broad mid/upper eastern CONUS trough Tuesday night and gradually
lifting into a position from the NE U.S. into the Mid Atlantic by
Wednesday night. This will drag another reinforcing cold front
across the region Tuesday evening into Tuesday night. Moisture
continuing to wrap around the mid/upper low as it gradually fills
and opens up combined with mid-level vorticity and associated lift
beneath the low and diurnal instability beneath the cold pool will
lead to showers and a few thunderstorms blossoming again with
daytime heating on Tuesday. The moisture will not be as deep as
earlier in the week due to low-level flow trending more W to WNW,
but the above mentioned factors will still lead to high coverage of
precipitation in the afternoon and evening, so have PoPs quickly
increasing to likely to categorical by mid morning Tuesday. The
highest coverage will be from north central Ohio eastward into NW
PA.

One last organized band of convective showers should accompany the
cold frontal boundary Tuesday evening into Tuesday night before
drier air and increasing subsidence shifts the lingering showers
into mainly far NE Ohio and NW PA late Tuesday night and Wednesday.
These lingering showers will actually be aided by Lake Erie moisture
due to NW flow across the lake behind the front, a marginal lake
surface to 850 Delta T around 10 C, upslope flow, and a trailing
surface trough as the main mid/upper trough gradually exits. Lake
enhanced showers are rare for June, but this has been a cool summer
so far with numerous upper lows and deep troughs, so it is not
surprising. Broad surface ridging building east from the western
Great Lakes Wednesday evening and Wednesday night will finally bring
dry conditions to all areas.

Highs Tuesday and Wednesday will remain well below normal in the
upper 60s/low 70s in most areas, but upper 70s/low 80s will sneak
into NW Ohio by Wednesday. Lows Tuesday night will fall into the
upper 50s/low 60s, with mid/upper 50s Wednesday night.

&&

.LONG TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
A warming trend will begin Thursday as a broad surface high quickly
slides from the Great Lakes and Ohio Valley during the day to the
east coast by Thursday night while the mid/upper trough over the NE
U.S. also lifts out. This will allow broad mid/upper ridging over
the Plains and Mississippi Valley Thursday to briefly expand east
into the lower Great Lakes and Ohio Valley Thursday night and
Friday. This pattern will set up strong warm/moist advection by
Thursday night and Friday as a warm front lifts into the region.
However, the location of the warm front and how far north it gets is
uncertain due to a possible shortwave cresting the ridge Thursday
night into Friday. This shortwave will be on the nose of the
stronger low-level jet and resultant warm/moist advection, so MCS
activity is likely, but the location of the warm front and
associated theta e gradient will be the key in where the
thunderstorms end up. Even outside of the organized MCS path, the
moisture advection and isentropic ascent will lead to some showers
ahead of the warm front Thursday night into Friday, so kept slight
chance to chance PoPs. Highs in the upper 70s/low 80s Thursday will
warm solidly into the low/mid 80s Friday with dew points creeping
up, so it will start to feel more muggy.

There is still some uncertainty for next weekend regarding the
timing and strength of the most organized/widespread showers and
thunderstorms, but trends are supporting amplification of mid/upper
troughing over the Upper Midwest, Great Lakes, and NE U.S. by late
in the weekend which will lead to a strong cold frontal passage
Saturday or Sunday. The entire area should finally be pulled into
the warm sector ahead of the front by Saturday allowing for decent
heat and humidity to work with, but convective debris, lead
shortwave energy, timing of the main front, and shear parameters are
all uncertain 7 days out, so it is impossible to say whether or not
there will be severe weather. This will have to be watched throughout
the week. The frontal passage may be slow with a persistent boundary
in the area, so heavy rainfall will also be possible. Highs will
remain in the 80s and humid through the weekend.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z Monday THROUGH Friday/...
Thunderstorms have reached the I-75 corridor across NW OH.
Ahead of the thunderstorms expect VFR conditions. The storms are
expected to cause IFR/LIFR conditions in heavy rain. Winds
gusts may exceed 50 knots with the strongest convection which
could evolve into a squall line moving across northern Ohio
through the evening. Dry air being ingested into these storms
may limit how far to the east they hold together.

MVFR ceilings are possible in the wake of the cold front
overnight which should persist into Monday as periods of rain
develop under the cool upper level low. Southwest winds on
Monday may gusts 20 to 25 knots.

Outlook...Non-VFR in showers and thunderstorms Monday through
Tuesday night.

&&

.MARINE...
Showers and thunderstorms will cross Lake Erie this evening as a
cold front moves east across the region. These storms could be
strong to severe with winds over 50 knots, hail, and cloud-to-ground
lightning. Otherwise, the lake will remain fairly quiet through
early this week with winds becoming SSW at 10-20 knots tonight and
WSW at 10-15 knots Monday. Winds increase to 15-20 knots Monday
night and Tuesday allowing waves to approach 4 feet by Tuesday in
the central and eastern basins. Winds then turn NW at 15-20 knots
Tuesday night into Wednesday, so Small Craft headlines are possible
during the midweek period. High pressure building in Wednesday night
and Thursday will bring light and variable winds before winds turn E
to SE at 5-10 knots Thursday night and Friday as a warm front approaches.
