Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Wilmington OH
149 PM EDT Mon Jul 24 2017

.SYNOPSIS...
A cold front will move through the region today. High pressure
will work into the area tonight and allow for dry conditions
through Wednesday. Showers and thunderstorms will return for
Thursday and Thursday night as a cold front approaches and
moves through the region.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
A low chance of a shower or isolated thunderstorm exists along
and southeast of the I-71 corridor later this morning into the
afternoon. Some lower stratus extending ne from KILN is going to
slightly hamper temperature recoveries early on, but eventually
this will mix out and a cu field should battle the drier air
that is in place according to this morning`s sounding.

Highs will be noticeably cooler in the 70s along the I-70
corridor, and only reach the middle 80s south of the Ohio River.
This will also limit the potential for showers to develop, and
if they do, for thunder to occur.

&&

.SHORT TERM /6 PM THIS EVENING THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...
High pressure will work into the region tonight and remain
across the area for the short term period. Tranquil weather
conditions are expected along with cooler than normal
temperatures for this time of year.

&&

.LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH MONDAY/...
Ridge of high pressure will continue to extend across the region
into Wednesday with dry conditions and nearly seasonal temperatures.

A short wave will drop southeast through the Great Lakes on
Thursday pushing a cold front towards the area. Showers and
thunderstorms will increase in coverage through the day and
continue into the evening. As the cold front moves through
Thursday night, precipitation will end.

Upper level long wave trough will become established and persist
through the weekend. At the surface, high pressure will remain
centered to the northwest of the area bringing a prolonged period of
northeasterly winds. This fetch off of Lake Erie may bring some
extra clouds and perhaps even a few showers into northwest counties.
Temperatures will be slightly below normal Friday through the
weekend.

&&

.AVIATION /18Z MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY/...
-- Changed Discussion --
A cold front will continue to push southeast away from the
region for the remainder of the afternoon. A stray shower in the
wake of the front may occur, otherwise, SCT to locally BKN
cumulus clouds can be expected.

For tonight, a ridge of high pressure will build south into the
Great Lakes and the Ohio Valley. Skies should become mostly
clear. Some patchy fog will be possible at KLUK and have limited
this to just MVFR visibilities.

On Tuesday, high pressure will continue to extend into the
region. Some diurnally driven FEW-SCT cumulus clouds will be
possible, mainly near the northern terminals.

OUTLOOK...Thunderstorms will be possible Thursday into Thursday
night.
