As we watch the skies in Ohio, the forecast has been set for a notable change. The National Weather Service in Cleveland reports that after a period of serenity and dry conditions today, the region should brace for the incoming rain as a warm front blows in from the south. High pressure parked over the Central Great Lakes is moving eastward toward New England, making way for low pressure, which will see those dry conditions washed away by Sunday’s anticipated rains.
According to the
National Weather Service
, the near-term outlook suggests that today, Ohioans can expect “mostly sunny with some passing cirrus” and temperatures hanging in the 50s—a last nod to the mild autumnal clime. It’s not just a change in weather. Wind from the Plains shifts could also bring 30-35 mph gusts around Erie, PA, on Sunday morning, portending the more turbulent system on its heels.
Come Sunday, the low pressure front from the Plains is expected to “lift northeast towards Lake Erie,” with rain spreading rapidly eastward during the morning. The
National Weather Service
forecast predicts at least a half-inch of rain for most areas. Temperature-wise, the reading might hit the mid-60s in northwest Ohio but will be dampened elsewhere by the rain and strong inversion near 925 MB.
The dive into next week won’t provide much respite. As the first of two cold fronts exit Sunday night, it leaves only a brief intermission before the second arrives Monday night, effectively cooling the region. On the marine side, boating conditions on Lake Erie are slated to become dicey, with “Small Craft conditions” possibly redeveloping and necessitating advisories, according to the
National Weather Service
. The outlook isn’t clear-cut, as ensemble guidance shows low confidence, but most of the area should expect more rain Wednesday into Thursday.
For the locals, aside from the necessity of umbrellas and perhaps sturdier jackets, this shift reminds them of the Midwest’s penchant for swift atmospheric volte-faces. Residents may want to monitor updates as NWS continues to monitor the progression of these systems.
