550 FXUS61 KILN 260522 AFDILN Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Wilmington OH 122 AM EDT Sat Sep 26 2026 .WHAT HAS CHANGED... No significant changes. && .KEY MESSAGES... 1) A stretch of dry weather and seasonably cool temperatures can be expected through the weekend and into early next week, before rain chances return to the forecast. && .DISCUSSION... KEY MESSAGE 1) Some river valley fog is possible this morning, but high level clouds will limit overall fog development. A cut off low has developed along the Atlantic Coast, with the Ohio Valley on the far western periphery of this low. The synotpic pattern will continue to favor a period of northeasterly flow, ushering in a drier air mass along with seasonably cooler air. This will persist the remainder of this weekend and linger into early next week. By late Monday, the upper low is absorbed back into the mean H5 flow and carried off to the northeast. This shift will result in return flow developing across the Ohio Valley come Tuesday. A subtle warming trend will then ensue as we progress through the rest of the work week, and the pattern looks to become more unsettled as rain chances return. && .AVIATION /06Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/... River valley fog is possible again this morning, with impacts primarily at KLUK. However, some high level clouds may disrupt or delay the onset of vsby reductions. VFR conditions are forecast the remainder of the taf period. Some high level clouds may continue to move through today. Surface winds persist out of the NE, increasing to near 10 kts during the daytime hours. OUTLOOK...No significant weather is expected. && .ILN WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... OH...None. KY...None.
