632 FXUS61 KILN 240111 AFDILN Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Wilmington OH 811 PM EST Sun Nov 23 2025 .SYNOPSIS... High pressure will allow for dry conditions through the day on Monday. A system will bring rain to the region starting Monday night. A cold front will move through on Wednesday bringing colder and breezy conditions to the region. Another system will move through next weekend. && .NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM MONDAY MORNING/... Given the latest hi-res short-term guidance, have issued a small Dense Fog Advisory for portions of southeast IN and nrn KY for tonight through mid-morning Monday. The DFA was issued where there is the highest confidence for locally dense fog, but it may be expanded at some point depending on observation trends. Low temperatures will be cooler with lows in the upper 20s to middle 30s. && .SHORT TERM /6 AM MONDAY MORNING THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT/... Dry conditions are expected during the day on Monday, however rain will start to move into the region Monday night. Expect widespread coverage in rain by late in the overnight hours. Temperatures are expected to be in the 50s during the day on Monday. Only expect temperatures to drop down into the 40s Monday night with the cloud cover. && .LONG TERM /TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/... Widespread rainfall is likely to be ongoing Tuesday morning as a warm front lifts through the Ohio Valley while an upper level shortwave trough also progresses through. After the initial push of moisture and forcing during the morning, rain chances go down but still persist ahead of an approaching cold front. Moderate southerly flow allows forecast highs to reach upwards of 60 especially south of the Ohio River. Conditions remain unsettled and warm Tuesday night. On Wednesday, the cold front pushes through the Ohio Valley during the daytime which will bring an end to shower activity and allow much colder air to advect in on gusty northwesterly flow. Dropping temperatures are expected during the afternoon so high temperatures are likely to occur early in the day. Cold and gusty conditions persist through Wednesday night and Thanksgiving as a low strong wraps up in southeastern Canada. Temperatures for the holiday may not get out of the 30s and breezy conditions will make wind chills feel a bit colder. Chilly, dry weather continues on Friday as high pressure builds into the Ohio Valley which at least leads to calmer winds. The surface high quickly moves east by Saturday night. Warmer, moist air lifts north into the region west of the high. Precipitation chances increase on Saturday and blossom by Sunday/Sunday night. && .AVIATION /01Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/... Clear skies will prevail until BR/FG develops in a fairly widespread fashion past 03z, particularly for srn sites of KCVG/KLUK/KILN. Expect LIFR/VLIFR VSBY to impact these sites past 06z before slowly improving between 13z-15z. The nrn fringe of the fog is still somewhat uncertain, but there may be some more widespread impacts at KDAY/KCMH/KLCK in the several hours around 12z as well. BR/FG will dissipate by 15z area-wide, with some cirrus overspreading the region through the daytime. Thickening mid/high clouds will evolve toward 00z, with SHRA overspreading the area by 06z Tuesday. Light/VRB/calm winds will prevail through 12z before going out of the SE at 6-8kts thereafter. Easterly flow at 5kts or less will evolve toward the end of the period. OUTLOOK...MVFR/IFR CIGs and VSBY are likely late Monday night into early Tuesday, with LIFR CIGs possible early Tuesday. MVFR/IFR CIGs will linger into Wednesday. Winds gusts to around 30 kt are possible Wednesday and Thursday. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...None.
