NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE WILMINGTON OH  
258 PM EST FRI NOV 8 2024  
   
SYNOPSIS  
 
GRADUALLY INCREASING CLOUDS BUT STILL DRY WEATHER WILL DOMINATE  
THE FIRST PART OF THE WEEKEND AS HIGH PRESSURE PASSES THROUGH  
THE LOWER GREAT LAKES AND MID OHIO VALLEY. AN AREA OF LOW  
PRESSURE APPROACHING FROM THE CENTRAL PLAINS WILL BRING A CHANCE  
OF RAIN SATURDAY NIGHT WITH RAIN LIKELY ON SUNDAY. ABOVE NORMAL  
TEMPERATURES WILL CONTINUE WELL INTO THE WORK WEEK.  
 
 
   
NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/  
 
DRY CONDITIONS UNDER NW FLOW AS THE REGION REMAINS ALONG THE  
LEADING EDGE OF SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE MOVING FROM THE CENTRAL  
PLAINS INTO THE LOWER GREAT LAKES. LIGHT GUSTS NEAR AND NORTH OF  
I-70 IN A SLIGHTLY TIGHTENED PRESSURE GRADIENT, WITH HIGH THIN  
CLOUDS PUSHING THROUGH SOME AREAS OF THE TRI STATE. WINDS ACROSS  
CENTRAL OHIO WILL DIMINISH AS THE HIGH CONTINUES TO PROGRESS  
EASTWARD. SOME SLOW THICKENING OF CLOUDS OVERNIGHT, AS WINDS  
SHIFT FROM NW TO NE. WITH INCREASING CLOUDS IN THE WEST, LESS OF  
A POTENTIAL FOR VALLEY FOG, BUT STILL HAVE A MENTION ALONG THE  
OHIO RIVER AND IN SOUTHERN/SOUTHEAST OHIO AND PORTIONS OF  
NORTHERN KY OVERNIGHT. OTHERWISE, SLIGHTLY WARMER OVERNIGHT LOWS  
ESPECIALLY UNDER THE THICKENING CLOUDS IN THE LOWER 40S  
NEAR/SOUTH OF THE OHIO RIVER, WITH MID/UPPER 30S ELSEWHERE.  
 
 
   
SHORT TERM /SATURDAY THROUGH SATURDAY NIGHT/  
 
INCREASING CLOUDS ON SATURDAY AHEAD OF THE APPROACHING UPPER LOW  
AND ASSOCIATED FRONTAL SYSTEM. HIGH PRESSURE WILL STILL DOMINATE  
MOST OF THE DAY, WITH WINDS SHIFTING FROM SE TO SW AS THE DAY  
PROGRESSES. SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL HIGHS IN THE UPPER 50S TO  
LOWER 60S.  
 
FOR SATURDAY NIGHT, THE APPROACHING WARM FRONT ASSOCIATED WITH  
THE LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM WILL BRING INCREASING CHANCE FOR  
PRECIPITATION OVERNIGHT SATURDAY. SO STEADY TEMPERATURES TO  
START SATURDAY NIGHT AND THEN RISING TOWARD SUNRISE WITH THE  
WARM FRONT PUSHING INTO THE REGION. SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH ONSET  
TIME OF WIDESPREAD RAIN, AS THE INCREASED MOISTURE HAS A PRETTY  
DRY AIRMASS TO OVERCOME, ESPECIALLY ALONG AND EAST OF I-71.  
OVERNIGHT TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 40S IN CENTRAL OHIO TO 50-55  
ELSEWHERE.  
 
 
   
LONG TERM /SUNDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/  
 
TWO MAIN SYSTEMS WILL BE WORKING THROUGH THE REGION DURING THE LONG  
TERM. THE FIRST SYSTEM WILL MOVE THROUGH SUNDAY INTO SUNDAY NIGHT  
AND THE NEXT SYSTEM WILL MOVE THROUGH WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH  
THURSDAY EVENING.  
 
ON SUNDAY WIDESPREAD RAIN SHOWERS ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH THE  
REGION. OVER AN INCH OF RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE IN SOME AREAS. THERE  
IS NOT MUCH IN THE WAY OF INSTABILITY AND THEREFORE DO NOT MENTION  
THUNDER IN THE FORECAST. SOUTHERLY FLOW, WITH WIND GUSTS UP TO 30  
MPH, WILL BE POSSIBLE ON SUNDAY AND ALLOW FOR TEMPERATURES TO WARM  
INTO THE 60S. AS THE COLD FRONT MOVES THROUGH SUNDAY NIGHT WINDS  
WILL BECOME MORE WESTERLY AND PRECIPITATION WILL TAPER OFF.  
TEMPERATURES WILL DROP DOWN INTO THE 40S, HOWEVER CLOUD COVER  
STICKING AROUND FOR A PORTION OF THE NIGHT WILL KEEP THEM FROM  
DROPPING FURTHER.  
 
DRY CONDITIONS WILL BE IN PLACE FOR MONDAY AND TUESDAY. WAA RETURNS  
FOR MONDAY ALLOWING FOR ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES ONCE AGAIN. A  
WEAK DISTURBANCE WILL PUSH THROUGH MONDAY NIGHT INTO TUESDAY HOWEVER  
MOISTURE IS LIMITED WITH THIS FEATURE AND THEREFORE HAVE DRY  
CONDITIONS. TEMPERATURES WILL BE A COUPLE DEGREES COOLER AS WELL ON  
TUESDAY FROM MONDAY, HOWEVER STILL EXPECT ABOVE NORMAL TEMPERATURES  
FOR HIGHS.  
 
WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON INTO WEDNESDAY NIGHT WILL FEATURE AN ADDITIONAL  
CHANCE FOR WIDESPREAD RAINFALL ACROSS THE REGION. TEMPERATURES WILL  
WARM INTO THE MIDDLE 60S TO LOWER 70S ON WEDNESDAY IN ADVANCE OF THE  
FRONT. THE FRONT IS EXPECTED TO MOVE THROUGH WEDNESDAY NIGHT INTO  
THURSDAY MORNING LEADING TO COOLER CONDITIONS FOR THURSDAY WITH HIGH  
TEMPERATURES IN THE 50S. BREEZY CONDITIONS WILL BE PRESENT BOTH  
DURING THE WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY TIMEFRAME. SOME RESIDUAL MORE  
ISOLATED SHOWER ACTIVITY WILL LINGER ON THURSDAY WITH THE UPPER  
LEVEL DISTURBANCE. THE LONG TERM WILL END ON A DRY NOTE WITH DRY  
CONDITIONS PRESENT FOR FRIDAY.
