Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Wilmington OH 151 PM EDT Mon Jun 9 2025 .SYNOPSIS... Showers with isolated storms are expected through late afternoon before drier conditions return through midweek. Near normal temperatures are expected through midweek before warmer and more humid air returns to the region by the end of the week into the upcoming weekend. This return to a warmer and more humid pattern will bring renewed daily chances for showers and storms Friday through Sunday. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/... Stacked deep low pressure will track east-southeast across Great Lakes thru tonight. In response to a lead shortwave a low level southerly jet will increases to 35 to 40 kts. As moisture/clouds and forcing increase - A narrow band of showers with embedded thunderstorms to move across the area today. Diurnally driven destabilization to take place east of the I-71 corridor. This instability combined with strengthening mid level flow may lead to a few stronger updrafts. Strong to severe storms will be mainly east of ILN/s area but an isold strong to severe storm with damaging winds will be possible across the far east this afternoon. The main axis of precipitation will shift east with chances decreasing from west to east by late afternoon. A few additional showers will be possible across west central Ohio late in the day into the evening as another shortwave rotates around the mid level low and a secondary front moves into the area. Highs today influenced by clouds and pcpn will top out in the mid and upper 70s. && .SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/... While conditions will trend dry/sunny late in the daytime, a narrow axis of clouds/ISO SHRA coincident with the actual front will drift to the SE into the local area after sunset this evening. Do think there will be a few ISO SHRA lingering about near/W of I-71 through midnight before activity wanes altogether late into the night. Temps tonight dip into the lower to mid 50s as /much/ drier air filters in from the W. We will be firmly in the post-frontal environment Tuesday as the large mid/upper level trof axis swings through early in the day. Highs on Tuesday will top out in the mid/upper 70s with a mix of sun and clouds. A light westerly breeze will be maintained through the daytime amidst a well-mixed BL and steep LL lapse rates. PWats will dip to about ~50-60% of seasonal norms through the short term period. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/... Wnw flow aloft will prevail through Sunday. An upper trough will extends along the Ohio River to the Mississippi, then south towards ARKLATX. This trough will cross the CWA early Mon with nw flow found in its wake. A dry forecast is in store through Friday morning with surface high pressure residing over the CWA and then orienting along the Appalachians Wed night and Thurs. A warm front develops w-e north of the CWA early Thurs and becomes more pronounced as a surface low tracks east along it on Saturday. The front becomes more diffuse, moves s, and orients itself more sw-ne from Sun-Mon. A surface low crosses the CWA on Mon as the front moves east ahead of the upper level trough. As Friday progresses, rain chances increase and linger through Monday, with a cold frontal passage marking the end of that particular wetter pattern. The weekend won't see prevailing precip as breaks in the rain are more than likely. There just doesn't seem to be a signal from Fri through early Mon that breaks through as a dry period. Models offer widely varying solutions for the coming weekend, so confidence could be better. Temperatures rise and max out in the mid-upper 80s on Thurs, then drop slowly to finish with Sun-Mon closer to 80 across the CWA. Low temps in the upper 50s Tues night rise to the mid-upper 60s Fri and Sat and level off to the mid 60s Sun night. && .AVIATION /17Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... Showers and embedded thunderstorms ahead of a cold front will affect the TAF sites thru mid aftn. The best coverage of storms will be over KCMH/KLCK where some of the storms may contain gusty winds. The main axis of precipitation will shift east with chances decreasing from west to east by late afternoon. Some temporary MVFR ceilings will be likely until drier air advects into the region. Skies expected to go mostly clear late in the day/early this evening with some increase in VFR clouds late in the evening as a secondary front approaches from the northwest. A narrow line of showers will be possible with this secondary front but best coverage should stay north of the TAF sites, so have not included a mention at this time. Colder air aloft will lead to VFR cumulus cloud ceilings development Tuesday late morning/afternoon. Southwest winds become more westerly this aftn at 10-12kt with gusts 15-20kts. These winds subside past sunset. Winds will go out of the west-northwest overnight and increase to 10-12 kts Tuesday with gusts up to 20 kts - especially over the northern TAFs sites. OUTLOOK...Storms will be possible Friday night into Saturday. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...None. KY...None.
