.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...
-- Changed Discussion --
SKIES CLEAR ACROSS NRN OHIO AND NWRN PA...(EXCEPT FOR A PATCH OFF
LAKE ERIE IN THE NORTHEAST)...BUT TO THE WEST SATELLITE SHOWS
CONVECTIVE DEBRIS STREAMING SOUTHEAST FROM WISCONSIN. MODELS
SUGGEST THAT WHILE SOME HIGH CLOUDINESS COULD GET INTO THE
SOUTHWEST COUNTIES...MOST OF THIS MOISTURE WILL REMAIN TO THE
WEST...DISSIPATING AS IT MOVES INTO DRIER AIR. WILL CONTINUE WITH
SUNNY/MOSTLY SUNNY FORECAST. TEMPS WILL REMAIN BELOW NORMAL TODAY.
WITH 850MB TEMPS 2 TO 4C BY EVENING...GUIDANCE LOOKS REASONABLE
WITH UPPER 50S TO LOWER 60S.

.SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY NIGHT/...
-- Changed Discussion --
HIGH PRESSURE WILL REMAIN IN PLACE TONIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT
BEFORE DRIFTING SOUTHEAST TO THE MID ATLANTIC COAST ON MONDAY.
WITH SUBSIDENCE AND DRY AIR FROM THE HIGH WILL GO WITH MOSTLY
CLEAR TO PARTLY CLOUDY SKIES WITH NO CHANCE OF PRECIP THROUGH
MONDAY NIGHT. TEMPS WILL BE SLOWLY WARMING THROUGH THE PERIOD WITH
HIGHS IN THE UPPER 50S AND 60S SUNDAY AND UPPER 60S TO LOWER 70S
MONDAY AS 850MB TEMPS REBOUND TO AROUND 6C. MONDAY NIGHT INTO
TUESDAY A WARM FRONT WILL MOVE NORTH ACROSS THE AREA AS THE HIGH
MOVES TO THE MID ATLANTIC COAST. TUESDAY 12Z 850MB TEMPS JUST TO
12-14C. AGAIN GUIDANCE IS REASONABLE WITH 70S TO AROUND 80. MAIN
CONCERN MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY WOULD BE THE POSSIBILITY OF

FRONT. WILL HAVE CHANCE POPS WEST MONDAY NIGHT AND EVERYWHERE
TUESDAY.

.MARINE...
-- Changed Discussion --
WILL CONTINUE THE SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY THROUGH THIS MORNING FOR AVON
POINT EASTWARD. WIND OBS AROUND 15 KNOTS...A FEW SHIPS CAME IN WITH
3 TO 4 FOOT WAVES. AS HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN MORE ACROSS THE
LAKE...THE THREAT FOR 4+ FOOT WAVES WILL DIMINISH. HAVE STARTED OUR
RIP CURRENT PROGRAM...AND WITH THE CONDITIONS FOR TODAY...THERE IS A
MODERATE RISK OF RIP CURRENTS WITHIN THE SMALL CRAFT AREA. REMEMBER
THOUGH LAKE TEMPS ARE STILL ONLY IN THE 50S. NNW FLOW CONTINUES
THROUGH SUNDAY...WITH THE HIGH AND LIGHT/VARIABLE WINDS MONDAY. HIGH
SHIFTS EAST AND SOUTHERLY WINDS WILL RESULT ON THE LAKE. A WARM
FRONT LIFTS NORTH TUESDAY. LAKE AT THIS POINT WILL BE FAIRLY STABLE
AS WARM AIR RETURNS TO THE REGION. THERE WILL BE CHANCE FOR
THUNDERSTORMS WITH THAT FRONT TUESDAY.
