Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
1007 PM EDT Mon Jul 17 2023

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will continue to move east across the area tonight
into Tuesday before exiting to the east by Tuesday evening. High
pressure briefly builds over the local area Wednesday before low
pressure lifts a warm front across the area early Thursday with
a cold front moving east across the region Thursday afternoon or
evening.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
9:30 PM Update...
Clusters of thunderstorms continue to cycle just ahead of the
cold front, mainly across central Ohio. These storms should
continue to move east across central and east-central Ohio.
While we have around 30 knots of deep layer shear, limited
instability from earlier storms, smoke, increasing cloud cover,
and loss of daytime heating should limit instability. Latest SPC
mesoanalysis only shows around 500 J/kg of MLCAPE. Therefore,
the threat of severe storms is low. However, could continue to
see isolated strong wind gusts to 30-40 mph and the occasional
tiny hail stone.

Previous Discussion...
Cold front is moving across NW OH. Despite the smoke across the
area, cumulus has developed and all of the convection thus far
has developed to the south of the CWA with isolated showers
developing just to the west of Hancock County, OH. Showers will
likely move into western zones and expand in coverage and
perhaps intensify as they encounter higher instability across
interior NE OH this evening. Guidance has backed off a bit on
afternoon shower/storm coverage, so bumped PoPs down from
categorical to likely with the highest PoPs in southeastern
zones between about 21Z/5 PM and 00Z/8PM. With that being said,
it's possible that the most intense storms and highest
precipitation chances remain to the south of the CWA this
evening; the smoke and cloud cover might hinder storm/shower
growth.

Additional showers/storms are possible as the front continues to
slide across the area tonight with rain chances dwindling by early
Tuesday morning. Will need to keep an eye on the potential for
patchy fog if any southeastern locations receive rain tonight.
Depending on the location of the cold front Tuesday, there may be
additional widely scattered showers/thunderstorms across NE OH/NW PA
during the day Tuesday, but generally anticipate dry weather for the
vast majority of the area for Tuesday and Tuesday night.

Expect cooler lows for the next couple of nights with overnight lows
in the upper 50s to low 60s. A few spots in interior NW PA may dip
into the mid 50s Tuesday night. Anticipate highs in the upper 70s to
lower 80s on Tuesday.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY THROUGH THURSDAY NIGHT/...
Much of Wednesday will be dry with the exception of low-confidence
PoPs across the far south of the area. The 500 mb pattern continues
to favor convective complexes traversing southeast across the Lower
OH Valley which would leave Northern Ohio largely dry. Low-level
moisture will begin to return from the south on Wednesday night as a
warm front lifts north and thus have expanded the low-confidence
PoPs (generally 30% or less) across the entire area for shower and
storm chances.

Thursday appears the most active day across both the short and long
term periods as a potent upper-level trough quickly sweeps southeast
across the Great Lakes, extending a cold front through the region.
There is no SPC outlook at this time (currently Day 4), though
anticipate at least a marginal (level 1) risk for isolated strong to
severe storms for the next update tomorrow morning. Mid-level flow
around 30 knots in addition to modest CAPE >2000 J/kg should support
a few organized clusters of thunderstorms Thursday afternoon and
evening, although the better shear will be found much further south
across the Tennessee Valley.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
Active weather may persist on Friday as the upper trough becomes a
closed low across the Eastern Great Lakes, wrapping a residual
surface trough behind the cold front. Showers and thunderstorms will
be possible throughout Friday, especially across the eastern half of
the area.

Quieter weather will return for the weekend as surface high pressure
and weak flow aloft within a troughing regime persists. By early
next week, we'll be watching for another upper-trough passage which
could lead to more unsettled weather. However, confidence remains
low on timing of the feature and thus low PoPs are reflected at this
time.

Temperatures will be average to slightly below average through the
long term period with highs in the upper 70s to lower 80s. Less
humid weather is also expected with dew points in the upper 50s to
lower 60s.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z Tuesday THROUGH Saturday/...
Isolated to scattered showers and thunderstorms have developed
across parts of northern and central Ohio, just ahead of a
slow-moving cold front. Should continue to see this through the
evening and early tonight, with the areal coverage gradually
shifting southeastward as the cold front does so. Due to
limited coverage, it'll be tough to time out
precipitation/lightning at TAF sites, so expect amendments this
evening. Brief MVFR/IFR is possible but unlikely. Precipitation
should clear the area by tomorrow morning.

Outside of the precipitation, MVFR visibilities due to smoke are
still being observed, and should continue sporadically this
evening being gradually improving tonight. Patchy FG/BR will be
possible tonight, especially for parts of central Ohio. VFR is
expected areawide tomorrow.

Outlook...Non-VFR in scattered showers and thunderstorms
Wednesday evening through Friday evening. Thunderstorms are most
likely Thursday afternoon through early Thursday night.

&&

.MARINE...
Generally quiet marine conditions are anticipated through much of
this week with the exception of a few stronger thunderstorms
possible Thursday afternoon and evening. Otherwise, the next period
of concern will be towards the end of the week and into the weekend
behind a cold front late Thursday night into Friday. Onshore,
northwesterly flow of 15 to 20 knots is expected which could result
in some choppy waters.
