Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Cleveland OH
200 PM EDT Tue Aug 6 2024

.SYNOPSIS...
A near stationary boundary has settled just south of the lakeshore
this morning. Low pressure will track along this front this
afternoon and evening before high pressure builds south tonight into
Wednesday morning. On Friday, another low pressure system will move
a cold front east across the area.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
130 PM...There still appears to be the potential for a period
of significant severe weather this afternoon, particularly
between 2 to 6 PM across the area. Severe convection was noted
across portions of far NE OH and NW PA early this afternoon,
though it appears fairly disorganized at times, with occasional
weakening and redevelopment along outflow boundaries. Keeping an
eye to our west for the more significant severe weather
potential for the rest of the afternoon as the shortwave
continues to move east across Indiana.

Previous Discussion...
This morning, a boundary has stalled just south of Lake Erie which
hasn't produced many impacts aside from areas of low stratus with
some isolated reduced visibilities near the surface. This boundary
is going to play a critical role in the evolution of today's severe
weather potential as a low pressure from the Midwest moves east
along it and ultimately impacts the area. This surface low will be
supported by an upper level shortwave trough moving southeast across
the region. To give an idea of the timing, the aforementioned low
pressure will reach the Ohio River Valley between 18-21Z which will
coincide with the CWA being placed under the right entrance region
of the upper level jet and a vort max traversing the area. As this
strong upper level support moves across the area, precipitation
chances will increase across the entire CWA through the afternoon
hours with the potential for severe weather ramping up between 18-
00Z.

Current hi-res guidance suggests MUCAPE values across the area
climbing to 2500-3000 J/kg with shear values of 30-40 knots as a LLJ
pushes north across the area in the afternoon. These conditions
coupled with the ample moisture (dewpoints in the 70s) will be
enough to sustain strong updrafts, but models are also suggesting 0-
1km helicity values exceeding 100 m2/s2. In addition, model
soundings suggest lapse rates increasing throughout the day which
will also enhance severe potential. These modeled conditions and the
given synoptic support will lead to a potential all-hazard kind of
day. Strong, damaging wind gusts are the primary threat with any
storms that develop, however looking at hodographs, there is a
'humped' hodograph near the boundary, supportive of supercell and
tornadic potential. With that being said, a tornado or two cannot be
ruled out with storms that develop this afternoon. In addition,
there is a non-zero chance of small hail that develops within the
strongest updrafts. To highlight this threat, SPC has issued a Day 1
Slight Risk for the entire area.

With a tropical-like airmass lingering across the area, PWAT values
are again expected to increase to near 2 inches this afternoon as
the warm cloud layers deepen in excess of 12kft. These conditions,
combined with everything mentioned prior, will lead to extremely
efficient rainfall with rain rates approaching 1-2 in/hr at times.
This heavy rainfall is primarily expected in the strongest storms
and not expected to be widespread. Regardless, there is a concern
for localized flooding especially in urban areas, areas with poor
drainage, or in areas that have received ample rainfall over the
last couple days. To highlight this risk, WPC has issued a Day 1
Marginal ERO for the entire area. Confidence is fairly high that it
will rain across much of the area at some point today, but this is a
bit less confidence in the exact locations for the greatest threat
for severe storms given it's highly dependent on the location of the
aforementioned boundary. Definitely stay tuned for forecast updates
throughout the day and stay weather aware today.

By tonight, the aforementioned low pressure and boundary will both
begin to shift southeast out of the area, allowing for high pressure
to begin to build in from the north. This will result in the gradual
tapering of showers from north to south and the arrival of dry and
pleasant conditions for the remainder of the near term period.

High temperatures today will climb into the low to mid 80s for much
of the area. The only cooler locations will be just north of where
the aforementioned boundary sets up with highs only climbing into
the mid to upper 70s. Overnight lows will be in the low to mid 60s.
Much cooler highs are expected on Wednesday with temperatures only
reaching into the mid 70s.

&&

.SHORT TERM /WEDNESDAY NIGHT THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
The first part of the short term forecast period appears mostly
quiet with high pressure building from the north and a cooler,
stable air mass behind Tuesday's low moving southeast of the region.
For Thursday night into Friday, the area is between two systems with
a low over Lake Superior and the low associated with Debby southeast
of the region. While there is no strong direct forcing overhead for
precipitation, expect these systems to interact near or over the
eastern forecast area and some rain activity may spark with the cold
front of the northern system moving through the area on Friday.
Therefore, have some PoPs in the eastern area, up to a 50/50 Friday.
The cold front should be through the area on Friday night and the
trend will be back to dry. Temperatures appear near normal west and
perhaps a touch cool east for Friday, given the rain forecast.

&&

.LONG TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH MONDAY/...
The air mass will become a comfortable air mass for the weekend into
early next week behind the cold front Friday night. Strong Canadian
high pressure will build into the central part of the country and be
the catalyst for highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s, which may
actually feel a bit chilly for those outside. The initial surge of
cold air advection on Saturday into Sunday will have a bit of
moisture still ahead of it and with temperatures down to 8-9 C at
850 mb, there could be some lake clouds and maybe an isolated to
widely scattered shower in NE OH and NW PA during the weekend.
Eventually, the flow backs just a touch on Sunday into Monday and
slightly warm temperatures aloft should allow for a dry and clearing
forecast for early next week.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z Tuesday THROUGH Sunday/...
Mixed-bag of IFR, MVFR, and VFR across the TAF sites early this
afternoon, with IFR conditions associated with low vsbys from
thunderstorms. Added in brief IFR tsra tempo groups for all TAF
sites this afternoon as there is the potential for strong to
severe thunderstorms, mainly moving from NW to SE. Anticipate
storms to exit the area after 00Z tonight, followed by some
scattered light rain showers. Could see some IFR ceilings later
this evening and overnight, especially across the west and south
portions of the area.

Winds are from the northeast to the north of the warm front and
from the southwest to the south of the warm front. Winds will
shift towards the northeast later this evening and overnight for
all TAF sites, 10 to 15 knots with periodic gusts of 20 to 25
knots possible. Winds will remain out of the northeast through
the remainder of the period, around 10 knots.

Outlook....Non-VFR possible in showers and thunderstorms Friday
into Saturday.

&&

.MARINE...
The lake will reside on the north side of a cold front today with
generally light northeast flow to start. Low pressure will move
southeast along the front today toward the Ohio River and the
increasing pressure gradient with this feature will greatly increase
the northeast winds on the lake this afternoon. Have gone ahead and
hoisted a Small Craft Advisory and Beach Hazards Statement for the
entire lake starting this afternoon. A strong pressure gradient will
be in place through Wednesday and the need for a marine headline
will exist through Wednesday night. The gradient will weaken by
Thursday as some surface ridging from the northeast wins out and the
lake will be in the middle of a low over the upper Great Lakes and
the remnants of Debby to the southeast. Northeast flow will be
favored on Thursday but the magnitude will be much less and there
should not be a headline. A cold front will approach from the west
with the upper Great Lakes low on Friday and southerly flow will be
favored early in the day. The front will pass and northwest flow
will be favored through the weekend. Flow could get to about 15 kt
on Saturday with the low moving east and there is room for another
headline to be needed for the central and eastern basins.
