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.

no sensible wx concerns over the next 7 days as an expansive low
level anticyclone holds over the great lakes region. a pseudo-omega
blocking pattern in the mid-upper levels will keep this stable and
dry air mass in place, with the local area sandwiched between
northeast conus troughing and anomalous upper midwest to south-
central canada ridging. plenty of sunshine expected in this blocky
regime otherwise with low humidity supporting daily ~25 degree temp
diurnals (lows generally upper 40s to upper 50s and highs mid 70s to
mid 80s, close to where they should be for this time of year).

a surface high pressure area was over lake superior and was
associated with a cool, dry and stable airmass over northern
indiana. the subsidence and surface flow associated with this
system will continue to bring dry weather with vfr sky
conditions and visibilities.

- sunny and warmer friday.
- extended stretch of dry conditions with seasonable temperatures
this weekend and into next week.
&&
.discussion...
highly amplified, blocked upper level pattern will offer an extended
stretch of generally benign weather conditions this forecast period.
strong height falls consolidating over the northeast will keep
broad, cyclonic mid level flow entrenched across the eastern third
of the conus. western periphery of this feature maintains persistent
confluent flow aloft, effectively establishing an expansive area of
deep large scale subsidence within low level anticyclonic flow
locally. net result is a high degree of insolation potential with
limited cloud production to finish the work week. minor, brief
increase in upper heights affords a modest warming trend friday from
readings noted today. highs projected to arrive within the 80 to 85
degree range most locations. noteworthy height falls to the east
will send a backdoor cold front through early friday night. little
more than a brief increase in cloud cover associated with this
feature, given lack of better moisture quality/depth or forced
ascent.
cooler post-frontal conditions within prevailing low level northeast
flow saturday, most notably downstream of the colder lake huron
waters given the onshore flow. highs mid 60s to around 70 degrees.
dry and seasonable conditions will then prevail as high pressure
retakes control sunday into early next week. little variation in
conditions until the latter half of next week, when upper ridging
begins to take greater influence. this likely leads to some degree
of a warming trend, while still limiting rainfall potential.

.marine...
high pressure weakens this evening through friday as it slowly
drifts over the southern great lakes. light and variable winds are
expected in the presence of the high pressure center. low pressure
then tracks from quebec into new england friday evening, drawing a
cold front south and causing winds to veer to the northeast early
saturday morning. the frontal passage may briefly bring winds and
waves to small craft advisory criteria friday night into saturday,
possibly lingering into the afternoon over saginaw bay where flow
aligns with fetch. high pressure expands south from ontario into the
weekend, reinforcing a period of dry weather and quiet marine
conditions outside of the bay.

high pressure dominates through the period with prevailing clear
skies. northeast winds go calm overnight as the center of the high

the west friday afternoon as the high settles over the southern
great lakes.
