Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
933 PM EDT Thu Aug 8 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
A trough extends from Tropical Storm Debby across the eastern Great
Lakes. A cold front will move east across the area on Friday as the
remnants of Debby move north towards New York. Another trough will
remain across the eastern Great Lakes through the weekend.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
930 pm update...
We updated hourly POPs this evening with the heavy and slow
moving thunderstorms activity over north central Ohio. Cloud
tops are starting to warm with the associated convection
indicating that this nearly stationary line of storms is
starting to weaken.

Previous discussion...
Humidity is on the increase again today as dewpoints reach the
lower 70s. Isolated showers have started to develop along and
east of a trough axis that extends from near Ashland to Medina
towards Chardon. This inverted trough extends from Tropical
Storm Debby still well south of the area over the Carolinas.
Instability is building with ML CAPE values of around 1000 J/kg.
Showers and possibly a few thunderstorms are expected to
increase in coverage through the late afternoon and early
evening hours along this boundary and where any outflow
boundaries may kick off additional activity. Model soundings do
initially show some warming near 600mb which could inhibit
vertical growth until mid levels moisten and cool more into the
evening. Any thunderstorm that develops will be capable of
producing heavy rainfall with slow storm motion. Coverage and
duration will likely be limiting factors for a flooding but can
not rule out a Flood Advisory if a persistent cell develops. A
decrease in coverage is expected overnight as we lose
instability, especially after midnight.

On Friday the remnants of Debby will track north across western
Pennsylvania into New York. At the same time an upper level through
will move into the Central Great Lakes shunting the deep layer
moisture generally east of our forecast area. We will hold onto a
chance of rain across portions of Northeast Ohio and a little higher
in Northwest Pennsylvania as a cold front sweeps from west to east.
Conditions will tend to dry out from west to east with highs only
reaching around 80 degrees.  with a little higher pop in NW
Pennsylvania but conditions will tend to dry out from the west.
Humidity will trend much lower behind the front into Friday night.
Breezy northwest winds on Friday will also allow for a much more
comfortable feel with winds of 10-15 mph and gusts to 20-25 mph.

&&

.SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT/...
An upper level trough will dig into the northeast this weekend,
bringing a period of relatively cooler and less humid weather. As
various shortwaves and surface troughs drop through they may focus
increases in clouds and perhaps a few showers, especially downwind
of Lake Erie. Overall am expecting a mainly dry weekend with highs
in the 70s and lows in the 50s/near 60 but there are some low POPs
in at times, especially Saturday night and Sunday downwind of Lake
Erie from far northeast OH into northwest PA.

&&

.LONG TERM /MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY/...
Troughing will persist over the northeast through much of next week
with confluence behind it encouraging a mainly quiet week of
weather. Temperatures will start the week on the cooler side of
average (highs on either side of 80 with lows on either side of 60)
and will modestly warm through the period back to near seasonal
values (highs in the low-mid 80s, lows in the 60s). POPs are
generally below forecast inclusion for the long term period.

&&

.AVIATION /00Z Friday THROUGH Tuesday/...
Conditions will vary from VFR to MVFR ceilings tonight into
Friday morning. There will be some low end MVFR ceilings for
CLE, CAK, YNG, and ERI. There are some scattered showers and
thunderstorms near CLE and CAK where VCTS is mentioned in the
TAF this evening. Ceilings will become VFR later on Friday and
scattered out over NWOH. There is an inverted surface trough
across NEOH this evening. Winds on the east side of this trough
are from the southeast and east 5 to 10 knots. Winds on the west
side of this trough are from the north and northwest 5 to 10
knots. All winds will become from the west and northwest on
Friday 10 to 15 knots with gusts up to 25 knots.

Outlook....Non-VFR possible with periodic and isolated to
scattered showers/thunderstorms Friday night through Monday.

&&

.MARINE...
Northwest winds will increase to 15 or so knots on Friday as the
remnants of Debbie pass well to our east, with winds shifting to the
west-northwest and increasing to near 20 knots Friday evening and
night. Winds remain generally west-northwest in the 15-20 knot range
through Sunday before shifting more westerly and becoming lighter
(less than 15 knots) Sunday night into next week. A period of Small
Craft Advisories and Beach Hazards Statements will likely be needed
Friday evening and night with conditions flirting with criteria
through the weekend. Will wait one more cycle before issuing the
headlines since the conditions don't begin until 24 or so hours from
now and since the end times of any headlines is uncertain. With that
said, choppier conditions will develop during the day Friday.
