DISCUSSION
KEY MESSAGE 1... The overall pattern favors a relatively quiet and dry period of weather through mid-next week as an Omega block develops across the CONUS. For the most part, our area will generally be located on the western periphery of the upper-level trough. High temperatures will mainly range between 70 and 80, with slightly cooler overnight temperatures in the 40s possible tonight, and again on Saturday night into Sunday morning as a cold front moves south across the area. Elevated north to northeast wind gusts up to 25 mph are possible behind the front Saturday afternoon.
With high pressure building south across the Great Lakes today and slightly elevated dew points in place, can't rule out some patchy radiation fog across the interior, generally along and east of I-71 tonight into early Friday morning.
AVIATION /18Z Thursday THROUGH Tuesday/
VFR is expected through the TAF cycle as high pressure remains in control. Only occasional cirrus is expected. N to NE winds will gust to 15-25 knots at times this afternoon, becoming light tonight and Friday morning.
Outlook...VFR is expected through Tuesday.
MARINE
Mostly quiet marine conditions will continue on Lake Erie through early next week, although probabilities are increasing for Small Craft Advisories and Beach Hazard Statements Friday night and Saturday as NE winds approach or exceed 20 knots in the wake of a backdoor cold front, building waves to 2-4 feet and elevating the risk for rip currents. Otherwise, NE winds will slowly decrease this evening and tonight, becoming SW at 10-15 knots ahead of the cold front Friday. Light winds are expected Sunday and Monday before N winds potentially increase again Tuesday.
CLE WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES
OH...None. PA...None. MARINE...None.
