WHAT HAS CHANGED

No significant changes as quiet weather continues.

KEY MESSAGES

1) Dry weather will continue for much of the week with limited rain chances on Thursday night. Better chances for rain will not arrive until late Saturday night. Much above normal temperatures expected through this week.

DISCUSSION

KEY MESSAGE 1... High pressure remains spread across the eastern CONUS allowing for a continued period of dry weather. Slightly cooler today behind a dry cold front with highs in the mid to upper 60s. Southerly return flow will allow for highs mid to late week to warm into the mid to upper 70s, which is 10-15 degrees above average for late October. A few sites may approach record high values for October 29th. See the climate section below for more information.

Another cold front will sink south towards the region Thursday night which may bring some rain showers to Northeast Ohio/Northwest Pennsylvania. High pressure returns Friday into Saturday before rain chances approach from the west late Saturday into Sunday. Current timing of this system would indicate a dry Halloween night for the majority of the forecast area.

AVIATION /12Z Tuesday THROUGH Saturday/

VFR conditions will continue through the TAF period with high pressure entering the region. Mid-to-high level clouds will continue to filter into the region from the west, eventually allowing for a thin ceiling across the terminals. Winds will be generally east to northeast today, shifting to the south as high pressure passes to the east for Wednesday.

Outlook...Primarily VFR expected through Saturday.

MARINE

Northeast to east winds 10-15 knots will continue today with wave heights 2-4 feet decreasing to 1-3 feet by tonight. High pressure returns Wednesday as winds turn offshore and decrease to 10 knots or less. Southerly to southwesterly winds increase to 10-15 knots Thursday morning ahead of a cold front before shifting northerly 5- 10 knots in the wake of the frontal passage. Winds through the weekend will generally remain northeasterly to easterly at 10 knots or less under high pressure.
