A cold front will move through Monday night into Tuesday bringing with it additional thunderstorm chances. Dry conditions will be present for Wednesday before a weaker system brings some additional precipitation chances for Thursday.-- End Changed Discussion --&& .NEAR TERM /THROUGH TODAY/...-- Changed Discussion --A disturbance moving through overnight will continue to bring showers and thunderstorms to the region. A stronger disturbance moves through during the day bringing with it additional thunderstorm chances. Will continue to highlight the potential for damaging winds in the HWO. In addition will continue to mention the potential for isolated flooding as well.-- End Changed Discussion --&& .SHORT TERM /TONIGHT THROUGH 6 PM TUESDAY/...-- Changed Discussion --The cold front will work through Monday night into Tuesday. This will bring with it additional thunderstorm chances until the passage of the frontal boundary. Cannot rule out an isolated strong to severe storm on Tuesday as well. The best chance for this would be across southern and eastern portions of the forecast area. Will mention isolated potential in the HWO.-- End Changed Discussion --&& .LONG TERM /TUESDAY NIGHT THROUGH SUNDAY/...-- Changed Discussion --On Tuesday evening, a cold front will have just cleared through the ILN forecast area, and will continue to move east. Behind the front, surface high pressure -- and a cooler and drier air mass -- will settle into the region. This will lead to quiet weather conditions Tuesday night through Thursday morning. By Thursday, there will be a slight shift to the weather pattern, as troughing develops over the northeastern states, and ridging develops through the central part of the CONUS. A weak shortwave in the northwest flow may bring some precipitation to northern Indiana and northern Ohio on Thursday afternoon. By Friday, the surface high will be moving further to the east, and the ridging over the central CONUS will begin drifting eastward as well. This will place the Ohio Valley in a warm advection pattern through the weekend, which will allow both heat and humidity to gradually increase. In terms of temperatures, highs in the lower 90s can be expected on Saturday and Sunday as well. As temperatures increase, chances for precipitation will begin to increase again as well -- just a little bit on Friday, and then with greater chances on Saturday and Sunday. While chances for storms will increase, as of now, no clear signs for organized convection or significant hazards through the extended forecast period.-- End Changed Discussion --&& .AVIATION /06Z MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...-- Changed Discussion --Showers and some thunder are moving across the region. Best chance for thunder and gusty winds at the start of the TAF period will be at KDAY, however there will be some thunder near KILN and therefore have SHRA and VCTS there. In addition, likely to see visibility reduced at KDAY as well. Some MVFR cigs will be possible late in the overnight and morning daytime hours at the TAF sites, however confidence is not high in exact placement and how widespread they will be. Additional thunderstorms will develop and move across the region during the day as an upper level disturbance moves through. Some fog will be possible at the end of the longer KCVG TAF. OUTLOOK...Thunderstorms possible on Tuesday.-- End Changed Discussion --&& .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...None. KY...None. IN...None. && $$ SYNOPSIS... NEAR TERM... SHORT TERM...
